there are two guns to every lighting
man in this parish. No systematic
plan has yet been adopted to obtain
possession Of the extra ones, and it
behooves our people to take charge
of the matter themselves. There is
no lack Of inclination TO give or sell
them no one has taken the trouble to
take prominent part in the matter.
Il is said that there are 10000 men
enlisted in Tennessee who have moth
inc, but their fists and heels to rely
upon. We know that in this State
eur patriotic Governor, has exhaust
ed every resource in vain attempt to
arm, our troops. Let every one who
possesses an extra weapon, rifle,
,nusket, shot-gun,s sword or revolver
attach his name and the price he desi
res for it, ii he wishes pay, and send
it to his merchant in this city. When
number have in this manner been
obtained, the Government agent in
New Orleans can be written to and
the guns donated or sold be sent to
him. We would propose public
meeting of our townspeople to take
action in regard to ibis all-important
matter but are afraid the advice would
