epeeiL Dispatch to The n. Y. Tribune.
HIRYrSBURG, Thursday, MI


HARRISBURG, Thursday, March IL, 1864.
Gems. Burnside and Hancock were handsomely
received by both Houses Of the Legislature to-day
Tey were invited TO the Speakers stand in both
ouses and each House took recess to enable the
embers and crowded gallery to be introduced.
In the House Gen. Burnside made speech highly
supplementary to the Pennsylvania regiments which
Lad served under bin.
Gen. Hancooks speech to the House was very brief,
simply one Of thanks TO the Legislature Of his native
State. Neither spoke in the Senate.
This afternoon they reviewed in company with Gov.
Curtin the 45th Regiment under Col Curtin the 4sth.
Col Siegfried the 10th, Col Christ and the 5jth Col
HartTauft.
Colonels Siegfrcd, Christ and Curtin, under
ders TO 90 TO Annapolis where Gen. Burnsides corps
concentrates. Gen Burnside evidently goes TO North
Carolina again. Hancock expressed freely the opinion
that his corps would resnter the Army Of the Potomac
Recruiting is very active stu at this point. This
sate with the exception Of few counties bordering
the Maryland and Virginia line is full under the draft
Of ave hundred thousand.
The draft for two hundred thousand more Is deemed
here evidence Of probable difficulty with West
ern European Power II will be complied with without
draft in all Republican counties and most others.
