Volunteer Aid Fund.

The volunteers, and their families and
friends generally, viii be Interested in the
following circular just issued by the See
rotary Of State and State Treasurer
To the ,riUes AID Families of HztSconstn
Volunteers
Believing that many Of you are restrain
ed from sendingin your applications for the
extra pay promised to you by the State
under the impression that the money
in the fund IS exhausted, we deem 1t prop
er 20 state to you the following facts =
First-In consequence OF the neglect
on the part of officers of some of the rel
ments TO make out the reports required
by law, the families belonging to these
non reporting regiments are unable 10
draw the money due 10 them. and as quite
number OF regiments are delinquent in
their reports-some of them never having
even furnished the list OF those entitled to
extra pay-the money, which in other cir
cumstauces would have been paid 10 these
families remains IN the Treasury not
drawn.
Second We are informed by the Quar-
termaster General shat arrangements have
been made by which claims against the
war fund, amounting in the aggregate to
over eighty thousand dollars, have been
paid direct by tie L. : authorities. As
the State had made provision tor the pay
ment of these claims, IL leaves a large
amount that can be put to the credit OF
the Volunteer Aid Fund.
Ihird-Governor Solomon has procur-
ed from Washington, on account of ad-
yarces made by the State, some forty
thousand dollars more than had been cal
culated upon, thereby placing this amount
In the treasury to be used in the payment
of the claims oi the families OF the volun
teeTs.
BY reason Of t!le facts above stated the
money in the fund IA still unexhaasted.
and we hope To be able TO continue the
payment OF all applications until some
time in January, and perhaps longer.

Secretary OF State

The news from our army at Fredericks-
burg is less favorable than we had hoped.
10 sum up the matter In few words -
Gen, Burnside went to the Rappahannock
with the expectation that his Pontoon
Bridges, which had been prepared for the
occasion would he there on the following,
day. The city was given seventeen hours
to surrender. But as the bridges did not
arrive for Eve or six days, there was Nc
chance for crossing, and no attack was
made Meantime the rebels were being
largely reinforced, and strong fortiGea-
tons erected for a defence in their chosen
position. The bridges finally arrived, and
thrown across the stream, under murder
Gus lire from the rebels. Our cannon was
brought to bear upon the city of Freder-
ickshnr-r, and large portion of the town
destroyed. Our troops crossed over and
took possession of the place. 4 council
OF war was held and an attack determined
of from eight to ten thousand in killed
wounded and missing, and a repulse of
the attacking party. Finding the enemie's
works much stronger than they were sup
posed to be, Gen Burnside did not feel
disposed 70 sacrifice the number of men
that would probably be lost in carrying
the enemies works, and determined to re-
cross the river, which was done in the
night without being known to the enemy
until all were over The next move on
ths war Chess Board is of course a secret,
but we have confidence in the ability of
content to wait until the public are in
formed of the programme.
