Carolina sent in his message to the Legislature
on Friday last. 1t is chiefly devoted to State
matters. lie makes the following reference to
the war:
untirng energy and perseverance are essen
tial to success. A bitter and willy foe watches
our every movement, prepared to take every
advantage. Our people have counted the cost,
and have determined upon independence or an
Inhalation; it is ours to leave nothing undone
TO secure the object Of this revolution. Never
was the remark more applicable than that the
price of liberty is eternal vigilance. the State
Legislature has no uninportant part to play III
this great drama. They can aid the Contede-
rate government by assisting IN clothing the
troops, in repelliDg the raids Of our enemies
and in feeding the families Of our soldiers IN
arms. In al measures which you, ID your
wisdom, may adopt looking to the successful
issue Of this great struggle, you may, gentle
men, rely upon my hearty co-operat1on

THE STRENGTH OF GEN. GRANTS ARMY.

The St Paul (Mnnesota) Pioneer publishes the follow
ing extract of private letter written from the Army of
the Cumberland previous to the late advance, which fur
nshes interesting particulars to the strength Of
Grants force. We find in the New York Evening Post
"The Army of the Cumberland has been entirely
ganzed by Gen Grant You would be surprised to know
the number of regiments down here between Stevenson
Chattanooga, and Nashville. We have the old Army of
the Cumberland two corps Of the Army of the Potomac
aud two corps from the Army of the Tennessee and others
coming There ninety regiments in single corps
of the Army OF the Cumberland No more regiments were
got together in this country than the soil
of Middle Tennessee / can show for Bragg, and
without knowing the plans of generals confidently
look for hasty withdrawal of his army laundering
big smash up Of his whole force.
Bragg missed it when he lay still around Chattanooga
three weeks ago. Rosecranss army then one
quarter raons without forage his rear poorly guarded
and threatened daily But are all right Rations
plenty aud steamboats, running to within ten miles
of Chattanooga. We have quite army of Generals
Grant, Thomas Granger, Hooker, Sherman, Howard Slo
cum Osterhaus aud Palmer all commanding corps or de-
partments of more corps Our troops hail princl
pally from Ohio Indiana, Illinois, Pennsylvania New
York Missouri, Iowa, Kansas Massachusetts,, New Jer
sey, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Kentucky, though several
other States represented" ....
