Our colored fellow-citizens are remind
ed that the regiment from this State in the
Revolutions, consisting entirely of colored
persons, was pronounced by Washington
equal, if not superior, to any in the ser
vice. They constitute part of the quo
IA from this State, and il is expected that
they will respond with zeal and spirit to
this call.
The Commander-in-C Chief will lead
them into the field, and ill share with
them, in common with the patriotic SOL
diers OF the army of the republic, their
trials and dangers, and will participate in
the glories of their successes.
By order OF the COMMANDMENT Chief.

DIssATIsFIED.-The Charleston Mer-
curry is not at all satisfied with the pres
ent aspect of affairs. 1t says:
1t is perfectly plain, it appears to US,
unless some unforeseen circumstance pre-
vents, that the battles at Richmond have
to be fought over again. As at Manas-
as-as at Corinth-so now at Richmond,
our brave troops have vanquished the
enemy but for the want of proper gen.
eralship, the independence and peace,
which each of these victories ought to
have achieved, are lost to us. The forces
of the enemy are unbroken, and they will
return to the struggle for our subjugation,
with heavy reinforcements. President
Lincoln calls on the United States for
three hundred thousand more men. We
have not doubt they will be raised. The
army of the Confederate States must be
recruited also; but by what means ? We
see but one resource-another conscrip-
ton law, calling into service all men be-
tween the ages of thirty-fve and fifty.
And this ought to be done at once, and
the Confederate Congress be Immediately
convened together to accomplish it.

BUTLER AND PHELPS.

Gems. Butler and Phelps have again
come to issue on the question of the treat
ment of slaves. Gen. Phelps had some
negroes in his camp and he believed he
could make them useful by organizing
them into military companies. He &C.
cordingly commenced the work and made
a reouisition on Gen. Butler for arms and
uniforms. Gen. Butler replied advising
Gen. Phelps to desist from organizing ne
groes into military companies, and set
them at work clearing away trees and
brush in front of his line. Phelps re-
piled that he did not care to be slave
driver, and rendered his resignation
Butler refused to accept the resignation
and sharply ordered Phelps to carry out
his previous order. This further cores
pondence then followed:
Camp Parapet, La, Aug. 2, 1862.
Major Gen. B. Butler, Commanding
the Department Of the Gulf:
SIR-Two communications from you Of
this date have just been received. One
Of them refers to the raising of volunteer
or militia forces, stating that ] :" must de-
sist from the formation of any negro mil
itary organizations )" and the other de-
claring, in spirit contrary to all usage OF
military service, and to all the rights and
liberties Of citizen of a free government,
that my resignation will not be accepted
BY you; that leave of absence until its
acceptance by the President will not be
granted me, and that must see to it that
your orders-which could not obey with
out becoming slave myself-are " faith
fully and diligently executed
1t can be of little consequence to me
as to what kind Of slavery l am to be
subjected, whether to African slavery or
to that which you thus SO Extensively pro-
pose for me, giving me an order wholly
opposed to my convictions of right, as
well as the higher scale of public necessi-
ties in the case, and insisting upon my
complying with it faithfully and diligently,

convictions or my principles, at any sac

GEN. WILLIAMs.-Gen. Williams, who
was killed at Baton Rogue, was a very
brave and accomplished officer. Gradu-
ated at West Point in 1887, his first SER
vices were given to his country as an ar
tillery officer in the Indian War of Flori-
da. He was next in Mexico, where lie
was three times brevetted; and finally,
when the rebellion broke out, he was
among the first in the field. At Halter
as, at New Orleans, and at Baton Rouge,
he distinguished himself for his galantry
and skill; and among the last words that
he wrote to an old military friend, referr-
ing to the examples of Bragg, Lee, Beau
regard, Johnston, and other army officers,
he exclaimed, "thank God, we are on the
side of our country"

VOLUNTEERS.

There is considerable doubt expressed
among our citizens in relation to the town
OF Rutland being able to raise her quota
without draft, But it is just this feel
ing of doubt which produces all the diff
Guilty. Where there is a will there is a
way. There has been no real effort to
any great extent, put forth in the right
direction. There has not been half the
time spent in canvassing the town for re-
cruits for this war as there has been to
get voters out at an election. How can
we expect to fill the ranks where nine
tenths of the people stand with their
hands in their pockets and complain be-
cause nobody seems to be doing anything.
This lethargy is shameful,and if continued
much longer, will bring us into merited
contempt.
Fellow citizens, we have had our war
mectings-we have raised a generous sun
OF money; now let US do some practical
work. Get together in neighborhoods ant
school districts, talk the subject over Sc
riously- ascertain who can be spared
among us-who are willing to make sacri
fees for their country,and encourage sucl
tic go by guaranteeing to take care of thei
families and affairs in their absence -
take this course IN earliest and our quot
can be filled. But so long as this fata
apathy continues, it will be as impossibl
to raise two or even one hundred men, a
