New Regiments from Indiana.

General Noble. announcing the authority
.obtalnei. by Gov. Morton from the War
Department for the raising and organiza-
tion of new Infantry and Cavalry Regi-
ments from this State. 1t is, as the South
Bend Register says, Of vital. commanding
importance to all; to those who cannot go
to the field. as well as to those who enlist
under its provisions. Our State has not
only escaped the recent draft entirely. ow-
ing to its surplus of volunteers; but has a
surplus besides to apply on the next draft.
II CopPsrheai or foreign sympathy for the
rebels should keep the dying embers OF
treason alive. II the war terminates this
winter. IS all hope. the volunteers under
this call will have but short service to per-
FORM II it should be prolonged. then all
tie volunteers under this call will be added
TO our existing surplus. and go far towards
relieving the State from any future draft.
It behooves all the people TO push on the
work. and aid in filling up these Regi.
msnts. thus also strengthening our armies
in the field.
Our State. indeed, occupies noble po-
elton among her sisters. She has not on
iy responded to every call made upon her
by the Government. But more. And. hav-
ing thus periodically responded, she is the
first. and we believe. thus far. the only
State. that, having by volunteering, more
than complied with every requisitition OF
the Government, steps forward. through
her energetic. tireless Governor. (honored,
rs he is, by every soldier and patriot. ha-
ted only by rebels and rebel-helpcrs) and
voluntarily offers still more soldiers for
the defence of the Union. All honor to
Indiana; which thus takes her place in the
very front rank Of daring and Of danger.
