VctcronS receive one months pay in
advance, and bounty and premium of
S402, in instalments as heretofore publish
ed, and may enlist in any old or new reg
iment
Persons not veterans, enlisting in any
of the new organizations in this State, to
wit: the Both infantry or any of the
new artillery companies, will receive one
months pay in advance, and the ordinary
bounty of 500, as heretofore published.
Besides the 35th regiment and the artil-
lery companies now in process of organi-
zation, no near organizations will be form
ed, but recruiting will be confined to old
regiments.
By furnishing the number of men re-
quired from any town or ward, by yolun-
teering before the 9th day Of January,
such town or ward will be exempt from
| the draft mentioned in the proclamation
of the President, and which is to be made
to fill the deficiency then existing in any
State. 1t is also probable that any def
cheney arising on the present draft, or ex-
listing on any previous CALL in any of the
States, will be made up by the draft on
the 9TH of January next.
Enzistmeats for old regiments may be
made through the Assistant Provost Mar
shals, and through recruiting officers de-
tailed for that purpose from the field
The whole subject of the draft, recruit
ing and enlistments are under the. control
of the Provost Marshal General and his
Assistants. -
AS the people of Wisconsin have evin-
ced their patriotism heretofore upon every
occasion where the Nation has made a
call for men in the present. great nation
al struggle, I trust that they will not fail
to fill their quota of volunteers under this
call, by the appointed day. The rebellion
has received many a severe blow during
the past two years; it has crippled and
narrowed down; all its hopes of aid from
without have failed; the last able bodied
man in its power has been driven into
its ranks; it can make but one last despe-
rate effort with its armies now in the field.
Under these circumstances, shall our Ma
tional Government,-shall our brave men
in the field - call in vain for reinforcements
by volunteering? [ trust not! We can
not and must not stop half way, but must
sustain our brave brtohers in the field,
and struggle on until this rebellion is sup
pressed If this new call for volunteers,
intended to fill the ranks of the decimated
old Veteran Regiments is answered prompt
ly, it will give more real strength to our
army than any previous call has ever done,
because the strength and value Of the new
levy will not be crippled and wasted by
inexperienced officers, but will be made to
tell its full weight and power under expe-
rienced leaders.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto
set my hand and caused the Great
L. S. Seal of State to be affixed, this 24th
day of October, A. d. 1868.
EDWARD SALOMON.
