TWENTY-FOURTH VOLUME
OF THE
MILWAUKEE SENTINEL.
Published Daily, Tri-weekly, Weekly.
PROSPECTUS FOR 1862.

The 1st Of January will commence new
volume of the SFN4INsE ] he last Yea. has
been one of severe trial Ia ~ "4fear61Te while
the demand for news has a 'rt;s-ei. ne means
of support or. 1T lcss;. Ia sources ii profit,
have been mate. ial'y Gila ri>hed. The pro-
prietors of the SE> ISEL take pleasure III ac-
knowledeing that their efforts to keep pace
with events in these stirring times have not
been unappreciated and the SENTINEL in its
continued cndeavors to present its countless
readers with the earliest news, and its I'M
swerving advocacy of the Union and Consti-
tuition have been acknowledged and sustained
in liberal manner.
In making preparations for the new volume,
we shall enlarge our facilities for obtaining
important war news, and continue, as hereto
fore. to make the Daily. Tri-W eekly, and
Weekly epitomes of the times.
The eagerncss of the public to obtain the
latest information from the seat of war, and
the anxiety of the many thousands who have
relations and friends in the Union army. to
hear from the different regiments, have Undue
ed us to make arrangements for ample cores
pondence from all the different points at
which troops from the west may be stationed.
The SENTINEL, as heretofore. it is hardly
necessary to say, will be the firm supporter of
Republican principles, the fearlrs opponent
of local and national wrong. and the medium
of expression for the Mechanic, the Agricul-
turist, and the Merchant,

A GENERAL

yerv few of us have seen General Hal
leck here. but we all feel that he is pres
ept. The beauty of order is protr"dng
itself upon our senses, since his ARRIVAL.
Before that, there was not n minute, from
sunrise till dark. when the noise of DIS
charging firearms could not be heard.
Bang! bang! in single shots or voIIeys'
all over the twenty square miles or more,
of camp, until it seemed as if it was the
intention to accustom the men to stand
fire BY that sort of drill. But now. how
changed ! TThis Sabbath morning IS rs
still and mild rs in the peaceful quiet OF
an Ohio village. In so large an army
accidental discharges sometimes will oc-
cur, but they are So rare rs to serve only
to increase the carefulness against firing.
There can be no picket skirmish now
without alarming the camp.
A great change for better has been
made, too. in the management for I'M
loading of steamers. "UntiI Hal'eck " it
was each wagon for itself, and all Mt one
place. Confusion worse confounded J"
was the natural result. Frequently wag-
ons would wait for hours unable to get
near the boats. and nj last return empty.
Now no officer or soldier visits the land
ing, except on duty. thus clearing the
ground of lot of incumhrances.
No wagon goes to the boats without n
sufficient force to load it promptly. A
guard prevents the wagons from blocking
the way. and finally, two new landings,
contiguous to the different divisions. have
been made. Orders is descending to tho
minutest "details. We are summoned to
rise, eat. retire. etc. bv bugle calls. CAR
my Regulations "are enforced in every
thing, In short, we feel that there is a
General over US. 1t is true he has not
vet been in battle with us, but the conf
dence he inspires by his attention to these
minute makes us feel thai he will not
be found negligent or wanting in tho
graver duties of the commander.
Issues Of clothing and arms, in place of
those lost in battle. have already been
made. And the army is in complete
readiness to march on the enemy.-Ptus-
