 Asss A Jefferson. City lLs. paper before IS, the News, makes very complimentary mention Of Lieut.. VIM. s. BUCKLEY of this town, and the company of the, 12th Regiment, Conn. volun. ters, with which he is connected. It says: ,.
 Company A, l2th Conn. Regiment, stationed in this city, under command of Capt. Geo. N. Lewis and Lieut.. Buckley deserve much credit for their. mild, yet diligently vigant course pursued, since their advent among, us. Col. Deming, commanding this regiment, is said to be distinguished orator and gentleman; he has for some time past been North on busin ess. and, consequently we have not had the pleasure of his acquaintance but with Capt. Lewis, Lieut.. Buckley, and all of the under officers we are very well acquainted, and from personal knowledge We can say they are gentlemen of a high order of intelligence, and to all appearan ces, of strict integrity. The good ajudghment of Gen. Butler is clearly manifest in selecting Capt. Lewis. to occupy the very important and responsible position assigned him.
 This company is detached from the regiment to whichit belongs, and is de:ailed to the spec ialseryices of what might be called a provost police; this service is entirely indispensable in this city without it we might despair of order or safety, the city police being entirely lpadquate to perform the service requisite at this time,
 Long may Capt Lewis and his noble company remain with us; at least, as long as a military discipline is necessaryato thepe and good op. 4s' our Tclty. sassf 5aa Ga 1 sas8ga < .tst'
