In answer to the numerous enquiries which have
been made by the different Aid Societies which have
been recently formed throughout the State, I have
been intructed by his Excellency Gov PIcKENs, to
give the following information.
Depots will be established by the Quartermaster
General, both in Charleston and Columbia for the
reception of all donations Of cothing and he is also
charged with the duty of forwarding and distributing
the same.
The department" will receive all donations Of
clothing, say frock and pantaloons, of heavy
worsted goods, shirts an0 drawers of heavy home.
spun or flannel wool, heavy cotton socks, Blankets
new or second hand, also heavy Shoes
The plan upon which the State designs supplying
her soldiers with all necessary clothing is based upon
their willingness to surrender to the State the amount
of money appropriated by the Confederate Govern
ment for this purpose, say fortytwo 42) per annum,
this not being sufficient in consequence Of
the greatly advanced cost of material 1t is in view
of this fact that these audabe Associations of la
dies and gentlemen, are cordially welcomed as coad-
tutors in this noble work, and in proportion to their
voluntary contributions of labor and materials, will
the absolute cost of clothing for gallant volunteers
be reduced.
In the event that any of the " Associations" should
not feel themselves able to furnish both material and
labor the Quartemaster General is instructed by his
Excelency the Governor, to reimburse such Associa-
tions the cost Of all Materials at rate not exceeding
similar materials purchased by the Department.;
and the quantity allowed for each garment shall be
the same as used in our Manufacturing Bureau.
Societies are particularly requested to advise the
Quartermaster General of the quantity of work they
can do per week. and the amount of donations they
will probably send.

for marking packages should be strictly observed All
