are no materials i'm the home market.
The sources both of leather and wool
are diminishing every month the sup

be fed, aud an army without horses is
a mau without limbs. Even now, hor
aes sufficient tn serve the purposes at
the existing army are obtained with the
greatest difficulty, so that it Is utterly
impossible To double the army and in

only bare suffiri-ncy of mn>keis and
cannon to supply the present needs

and Wilmington have been closed, and
the nitre beds of Tennessee torn from
