A FINE CHANCE.

I HAVE RECEIVED AN APPOINTMENT
L from the Governor Second Lieutent raise
Company for the Ninety first Regiment Indiana
Volunteers, and have located my Recruiting Office
at Esquire Crisp's, on Third Street, nearly oppo-
site the Court House, where / may be found from
half past seven O'Clock in the morning till eight
o'clock in the evening, except during meal hours
Persons enisting in said Regiment will be en-
titled to receive the ordinary bounty of One Hun
dred Dollars-twentytive dollars of it in advance
also one months pay in advance when regularly
mustered into the service of the United States.
a premium of two dollars will be paid for each
accepted recruit
Clothing, arms, &C., will be furnished to volun-
teers as soon they mustered iato the servi O.
There is fair prospect of the 91st Regiment be-
ing mounted, Lieut.. Colonel D1ehrnger being now
engaged in efforts for that purpose and the pruba-
bility is that it will be kept in and about the
region of country in Kentucky where it has been
operating for the past eight months
Further particulars may be obtained at the re
cruiting office.
The Consumption Act will certainly be put in
operation soon; and to all patriotic it is more
desirable to enter the service as a volunteer than
a drafted man. ROBERT ROWLAND,

The blooming and beautiful Armada
got up steam yesterday evening, and at
four o'clock, casting off her moorings,
rounded into the stream, graceful as a
swan, and ran down to the coal-mines,
making the run from opposite the mid

and half minutes. In her new dress
size looks magnifcently, and in her
short trip showed that she is equal to
the best in speed. She leaves at two
o'clock to-day for Cairo and all way

only necessary to remind travellers and
shippers that Capt JOSH V Throop oc-
