quite evident that the active cooperation of munic-

", The following paragraphs from the official
circular from this Office of the 2ith inst are deemed
OF SUFFICIENT Importance TO be incorporated in this
Order viz: ~
!. The call of the President for 800. 900 Volunteers
Is made without regard to the deficiencies of States
or localities upon former calls and appointments

the respective Cities Towns and Plantations in l. il
volunteers furnished prior to the date when the Gov
eminent draft commenced in this State July 4 1869,
or OF men or communications obtained under the same
T. In apportioning the quota of this State under
the present call. Col. FRYE, the Provost Marshal
General Of the United States, says, this Is exclusive
OF any deficiency you may have on present draft or
former calls. and these will be considered only in
case another draft is necessary in January, n
therefore, the State Tails to furnish and have muster
the troops required under this call it is probable that
the Draft which may be ordered in January next
will include not only the deficiency under this rcqui.
stion but also the States deficiency as claimed bv
the War Department upon former calls.
3. All voluntary enlistments made since the u
s. draft was ordered, of troops that have been duly
