The Call for more Troops.

Its not great while since the country was
pleasantly startled by an order from the Presl-
dent stopping enlistne. 1t was at once suppos-
ed that the army was large enough to suppress
the rebellion, and we took immediate encour-
agemcut from it to believe that the government
saw its way clearly through to the end. We
are now unpleasantly reminded that the war,
and our sacrifices for the maintenance OF the
authority Of the laws and of the constitution,
are not yet over, by the reports, unquestOnably
correct, that more troops, some say % 900, some
say 100 900 or more, are to be immediately re-
cruted to fill up regiments in the field, or to be
used rs the necessities Of the war may require.
We, however, take no alarm from this, because
we know that the loss in the service from disease,
discharges, and the casualties Of the war, have
been very large for the last two months, and that
from similar causes, if the campaign reaches in
to the summer, as now seems inevitable the
ranks OF our armies will lose large per cont
during the next four months. We doubt If
there are more than $50 900 effective men now
in all our armies, even il 1t reaches 30 high q
figure. and of these, certainly if any great bat
tles are fought, nearly or quite one fifth will
fall out before October.
We are afraid that the rebels have now more
men in the field than we have, although we are
glad to know that in all that makes an army

man for man, to the rebel conscripts. Every
kind OF business south, except what the war
makes, is and has been for months suspended, and
there is scarcely any employment for their popu-
lation but war This, with the sweeping con-
scrptions, has served to keep their armies in
large force, though they must be poorly armed
and clothed During the summer, however,
they will not 80 much mind their want OF cloth
ing, but their lack OF arms will seriously weaken
them. Notwithstanding this, they are not to
be despised however, and may give us serious
trouble yet, and the government has done wise
ly in preparing for contingencies by acquisitions
for more troops
And we hope the enterprise Of employing
negroes to do such service as they are ca
pablo Or whether with musket or shovel, will
now be pushed forward. If it can be done, our
soldiers should be relieved OF all labor but light
ing, in the hot Southern summer which they
are Just encountering The rebels use slaves for
that service, and we may at least learn wisdom.
e. far from their example. When the govern.
ment is acknowledging the necessity of thousands
more soldiers to maintain our liberties, it
should take such measures as not only will not
repel, but will invite into its service every man
in the whole land who is willing to aid in the
work of suppressng rebellion.

From the Sixth Vermont Regiment,

We are permitted to print the following eN.
tracts from private letter written by the Chap
lain Of the 9th VI |, is dated Camp IN the
field, Sunday, May llth, 1862
After two days rapid marching through
beautiful country, but over muddy road strewn
with the wrecks OF baggage trains, SC. which
the flying enemy have left IN their course, we
are resting on this Sabbath day, in pleasant
fields, where are springs of cool, clear water.
The day is bright, warm and still, and We are
enjoying such quiet and worship, with no
rude alarm of raging foes, ~ we have not
known before since we lett Camp Grhn. The
whole army. so far as can observe, are improv-
ing in health and spirits and IN confidence IN
one another. and especially N their leaders Of
all ranks, in spite Of false and foolish criticism
by newspaper writers, which must have occa
stoned unnecessary pain to friends AT home. In
our regiment the Colonel's manly presence and
trumpeI-hke voice are more lnsplrtiog to his
men than any banner, or band of music could
be and IN the army Ut large nothing could ex-
coed the enthu sasm when Gen. Mcclellan ap-
pears. The habits and appearance oi many OF
the officers have improved not u little since
last winter yes with all these uncouragements
my heart Is sad to see how many are marching
into the midst OF death who are not soldiers of
the Lord, or loyal to His government. Ask all
who pray to pray much and earnestly for us.
