Of the magnitude of the one in which we
are involved, and extending over so much

There Is no department but needs rein
forcing. Fremont should have 90, 900 more
men; Mcclellan 80 900; Hunter 20, 900, and
at least 2O, 200 should be placed in Eastern
Tennessee. This additional number should
be raised forthwith. Hancock county has
sent an immense force into the feid-more,
we believe, in proportion TO her populatiou
