The Cry YEsrERpAY..-There were stirring
times in the city yesterday. The people were
fairly awake to the heimportance Of tie occasion.
The feeling was deeper than that exhibited on
the announcement Of the Bull Run disaster
Morgan's raid served to develop our weakness:
This was realized by our citizens, and they re.
solved thst preparations should be made at
once TO crush the marauders, and provide ade-i
quate measures Of defense. TO this end the
City Council made Arrangements to arm and
equip City Militia; and in this movement our
young men promptly and spiritedly co-opera-
ted. Many ofthe Old Home Guard companies
were revived, new ones we're formed, and en-
iistments were rapid. In few hours the first
company was filed up, and the mnster-rslls
reported 70 headquarters. Others win be FILL
ed up to-day; and within day Or two large
force will 30 organized. Besides this consider-
able numbers enlisted for special service in
Kentucky; and the recruiting offces for the
regular regiments did fair business. The
military spirit was fully revived; the streets
with martial music, and everywhere
the people were in active motion. Altogether
the prospects were bright.-lCin. Gazette. l9.
