The PAY AND ALLOWANCE or Moro TRoors.
In reply to Gov. Tod Of Ohio, tho Secretary of
War under date OF June 26tb, says:

tiona pay or bounty, colored troops must trust to
State contributions and justice OF Congress at the

there is in youth beauty and purity Of
character, which when touched aud de-
fled. can never be rcStored-a fringe
more delicate than host-work, aud which

HE CoLoRED Troops The numeri-
cal strength of the colored regiments &C
tuaIly in the field is somwhat over 90
900 men-less than has been generally
supposed. This number does not in
clude colored men who have regularly
enlisted in the service, and now employ
cd rs teamers, and in various other
capacities by the Government. The
number so employed is about $780,
Tho skeleton regiments scattered through
the country, principally in the south
west are being rapidly recruited to their
maximum standard, and before the end
of the year it is estimated that the Gov
eminent will have $4,000 negro soldiers
in the field. 1t is be opinion of emf
nent military men here. tEat colored reg
iments will form the basis of our future
armies, and that the Government win re.
ly mainly on colorod troops to finish up
the rebellion.
