FIRST REGIMEET RHODE ISLAND ARTIL-
Y-(COLoRED) Some twenty recruits for
this regiment passed through here this morn
ing on their way to join it. They we're fns-
looking men, physically, and, We have no
doubt, will make good recruits.
This regiment offers unusual inducements
to colored soldiers. The State pays each
man a cash bounty of $3.50, making the total
bounty to each recruit $3.50. The monthly
pay, rations and clothing, are the same as
those of the whites. By these extraordinary
offers many cOlored men are tempted to 20
East to enlist We deprscate such a course.
The eolored men of Ohio should remember
that their first duty, after that to the Federal
Government, is to the State of Ohio. The
colored regiment now organizing at Della
ware,-the 5th Z. S. C. It's in need of few
more recruits, and our cOlOred citizens should
feel that Ohio deserves their first attsn ton.
In the matter of bounties we are sorry to say
that Ohio cannot compete with Rhode Island ,
but we trust that the Legislature of the State
at its coming session, will provide means for
placing the black volunteer upon an equal
footing with the white.
