THE ILLINOIS ksskRvE.-Governo
Yates, of Illinois, has by proclamation,
called out twenty regiments of infantry,
which are designed as reserve in case
of emergency, and will be organized
under the militia law of that State. 1t
ii undoubtedly wise course to pursue.
Thinking men are not of the opinion
that the number of troops now called
for and raised will be sufficient for the
emergency. The reserve will be ready
when fresh call is made. How much
valuable time and money might have
been saved b ID this course been adopte d
months ago. Instead of haviog to 20
to work aud raise men and send them
raw and undisc'plined INTO the f.. d, we
should have had an army OF thoroughly
