HaRnrsBUKo Tve,day. Oct 20 1861
The Rev. Chas. A.. Hay, pastor Of the Lutheran
Church. was arrested to-day and taken to Baltimore,
by order Of Gen. Wool. The cause OF the arrest Is
supposed to be a communication signed by Mr.. Hay,
published in The Daily Telegraph, censurng the
authorities of Baltimore because of the difficulties
experienced by the friends of Union wounded SOL
ders in procuring the privilege Of taking them home
and attending 10 their wants, while Rebel sympa'
.hzers freely accorded similar privilege in aid OF
Rebel prisoners. A committee of citizens has gone
to Washington TO lay the facts Of the case before the
President and obtain the release Of the prisoner.

HOW VOLUNTEERS MAY JOIN THE REGULAR
ARMY.
According to general order lately issued from the
Headquarters of the Army Of the Potomac, it is,
among other things, ordered
All enlisted men, or volunteers, wishing TO trans
fer themselves into she regular army will record
their names at the Adju ants Office of their regi
ments at once before the 5tb Of November, 1862.
No officer of the regular army will in future enlist
volunteer soldiers whose names are not on these
lists Lists Of volunteers wishing to enlist in the
regular army will DO forwarded daily through
brigade and division headquarters to corps head
quarters.
Regular officers desiring to enlist soldiers from the
volunteer service win hereafter apply at the corps
headquarters for such lsts, and will also apply at
the same headquarters for permission to visit the
regiments to recruit the men. Care will be had not
to take more than a fair proportion Of men from
each regiment
Too much laxity prevails with regard to soldiers
leaving their regimental camps, and wandering be-
yond the limits Of their commands. Hereafter not
more than two men Of a company ct time will DO
granted passes to leave camp. Provost guards will
arrest all abseniees from camp without proper per-
init.
LAXTTY ON THE PART OF ARMY OFFICERS.
The reports OF recent inspections exhibit shame.
fu neglect Of duty on the part Of many officers Of
the higher as we'll the lower grades in this army

diligently to which will produce the generalization
Of any body Of troops. Inspections in many organi.
cations are rarely made, drills poorly attended and
infrequent cleanliness dinegard,d the care Of arms
and ammunition but little attended 10, and the in.
strucon Of officers in tactics and regulations entirely
neglected. Brigade and division drills, in some
cases, are laid aside.
The general orders published from time TO time by
the War Department and .. there headquarters for
the instruction and guidance Of the troops are not
promuga TO the regiments and batteries. The
prompt distribution aud PRONUNCIATION OF orders is
one Of the lrst duties OF stall officers, and command

General is convinced that come examples Of srm.
