Red Tape.
NJ Editor

Mr.. Editor
This significant idea, however strange it may
appear, is in vogue in this City. Coming down
the hill towards the bridge which passes the rlV
ulet running across Pearl Street, you will see al
this writing one side of The street and bridge kept
in tolersble good order by dint of attention and
management, while the other is entirely impsssi-
BILE by reason of holes in or near the bridge and
immense gulles cut by the rains-which are al
owed to gather and flows uninterruptedly down
tie hill in the centre of the street On enquiring
the reason Of this strange phenomena, was in
ormed that it was not within the province of the
supervisor of the hIst ward to interfere with the
york lying within the jurisdiction of the supervi
sr of the fourth ward. Is not this red tape, on a
sail scale, with vengeance and should it not
bScut instanter by the CouIIcE putting the whole
ofhe street, in one or the othe rdissrict-ISeUIR.

cents and upwards, with five hundred or more diff

SIRS I'll see by your issue of the fourth OF
September, you state that my son had received
the Office of Second Lieutenant in the Compa-
ny just organized in your city, called the
'LoVel Guards" for the reason that l had re-
cruited some twenty men for said Company
So far as recruiting the men, that was so, but
my recruiting the men would not have secured
him the Office, had he not by his own merit Sc
cured it. He was recommended by the officers
OF the Company that he has been serving in
for the past year, for promotion, and the Gov
ernor of this State, kindly granted my request,
that if Company from this County would re-
commend his appointment to the office of Sec
ond Lieutenant, he would send him to said
Company. Petitioding for his appointment, l
feel that he secured his own appointment from
his own ability, to serve his country, and the
respect he has gained from his superior officers,
and not by my recruiting twenty men for said
Company. l think that young men that has
patriotic spirit to enlist in the service of our
country, and go forth to fight the battles, and
endure the hardshlps of the soldier, and has
gained the respect of their superior officers for
theis good conduct and bravery should be hon
ored by all classes at home or in the service

WASHINGTON, Sept. 13, 1862.
Stringent orders have been issued against
struggling by Gen. Halleck. He notices with
regret that the practice of struggling has again
become prevalent in the army. Struggling is
invariably accompanied by marauding and
theft. Henceforward, leaving the ranks with
out permission will be punished severely, even
to the penalty of death.
Surgeons are enjoined to strict and indus
trious performance of their duties in regard to
the care of the sick and disabled. Generals
commanding corps are required to halt ire
qnenty, and at every halt the roll will be called,
as well as at the commencement and end of ev-
cry march. .-
All adjutants are TO make out a list of absen-
te es, and all stragglers are to be examined be-
foro the officers of the regiment 1.-THE excuse
is not deemed sufficient, the word "ssraggler"
is to be entered after the name of the offender,
and his pay stopped for the period of absence.
Field officers are vested with the same powp
ers as a regimental courtsmartial.-In cases of
rgent necessity, ticket OF leave may be fur
nished soldier for given time by the company
officers, who shall always go provided for such
contingency.
In such case of absence, the musket, haver-
sack and knapsack shall be borne by his COM
rades. When an examination of stragglers
shall show any neglect of duty on the part OF
officer shall be reported for Dismissal orcourt

return all stragglers to their regiments All
officers of whatever grade or regiment are vesN
ted with authority to drive forward all strag-
glers to their regiments, and resistance is at
the isk of death.
All houses on the line of march are to be oc-
cupied by the provost guard, and protected
against injury, and maruding and robbery are
made punishable by death, the sentence of

WHAT THE RUSSIAN MINISTER THINKS OF OUR
Mr.. Stockl, the Russian minister, after
watching our troops as they marched past on
their way to Rockville the other night, said
that we had the finest army din the world but
that no soldier could do his uty with so much
luggage on his person. Twice as much, he
said as russian soldier was allowed to carry,
and far more awkwardly placed than his load
.t KNAPsAcKs SENT BACK.
Sixty wagon loads of knapsacks were sent
back from the front last nights. This forms
a fitting corollary to the minister's criticism.

The Twenty First Wisconsin Regimen {
.-Hts OrganizaI ton and ROSter.


At 8 o'clock yesterday morning the 2lst
Wisconsin regiment arrived in this city, by
special train on the Chicago and Northwestern
railroad, en- route for the seat of war. Pro
ceeding without delay to the depot of the
Michigan Central road, the regiment found a
special train on that road, waiting to receive
them. This train consisted of three baggage
cars, one stock car for the horses, and seven
teen first class passenger coaches for the officers
and men. Before starting, the officers were
provided with dinner at the Massassoit House,
and the soldiers with plenty of refreshments at
the cars, gratuitously furnished them by the
railroad company, At half,past IL. the long
and heavily loaded train started off, bearing
the 2Ist Wisconsin regiment to new and active
scenes.
This regiment is without doubt one Of the
best that has been sent out from the Northwest.
In numbers it is up to the maximum standard );
in physical stamina and moral worth, the men
who compose it are above the average of SOL
diers. A large proportion Of them are railroad
men. One company is composed exclusively
of employees of the LaCross Railroad, and is
commanded by an engineer. There are twenty
Chippewa Indians attached to the regiment,
who seem to be fully imbued with the spirit of
loyalty and patriotism The organization of
this corps was effected about ten days ago,
since which time they have been actively drill
iIg and preparing for the field.

/ rs. cIose Of the Normal Schedule
term of the Selem Normal school, closed on Friday
Ias. The session. we understand, has been a
verv plessnt and profitable one The average
number of scholars has been Sixty five, sometimes
being as high as seventy-fVe. Prof. GAYLORD, Of
Oshkosh took charge of the exercises for the most,
| and after his Departure his place wa filled by
Prof SILL of the Michigan State Normal School
The Students were nearly all Teachers of more or
less experience, and they attended this Normal
School solely to improve themselves in oil thas
would tend to fit them for the discharge OF tne re-
sponsible duties ofthe Teachers station onoer
such circumstances all would be disposed 10
make the most of the time and the opportunity
And we have the assurance of those who nave
been constant attendants during the whole session
tba, such a scbool was never held under more
favorsb,e auspices, or more to the satisfaction OF
hath Teachers and taught, and while the latter
were determined to secure all the instruction that
was possible in the time the former were encour-
aged to make their best efforts to instruct and I'M
part of their greater experience to willing and at
tentive pupils.
We are confident that the results OF this snort
Normal School term will be visiblein the improve
ment that will be made in our schools throughout
the county. Teachers have received new ideas OF
the theory and practice of teaching, and will en-
ter upon their duties with more earnestness anc
new determination to impart the knowledge they
have received with more care and more effect
