Our armies should be largely reinforced. A
cruahing blow at the armed power OF the rebel
lion, II followed by wise, juet, aud conciIiatory
coulsels, will open the door to that eace which

The people amidst many diacouHaging cir.
cumstances nobly responded to my former call
for volunteers. Whatever may be the result
Of this appeal, the events Of the past few month";
have reflected additional honor on our beloved
State. Ihaye confidence that tho people will
again respond, and fill with volunteers not only
our quota of the new call, bat alqo the small
existing deficiency. 30 'aaasJ ---f'.
here repeat the request formerly made 10
the citizens of the State, to aid in the raising
OF men by the bestowment Of bouuties, either
individually or through the, municipal authori-
ties. IL 10 true that Q response to this request
involves the expenditure of large sums OF mon
ey, but every man must expect that war of
such gigantic magnitude as that in which We
are engaged, to beended speedily, requires pc.
euniary sacifce. II war iB TO be prosecuted, il
is economy to bring into the field largo Pre-
ponderence of power, rather than feed its in
satiate appetite by peace.meal. We should be
prepared to make great sacrifices, If, by 80 do.
Ing, We can save the Union.
The General Government offers largely In
creased bounties, of which the details will bt
announced by the Adjutsnt- General Of the
State. ~. " 'sa...ila ''',-' ~. Pc. .t
