Our friend, W. D, Mansfield, late

TO recruit for the 45tli Reg. U. S. "
The policy or impolicy Of receiving me-
groes in the army, is not ia question.
The government, after two years DELHI
Grafton, are fully committed to the pro-
ject Of aming as persons offering their
services. regardless of nationality or
color. West yirginis has perhaps al
ready lost credit for u full Regiment of
sable soldiers, by the indisposition of
her authorities to act in the negro re-
eoruiting business. counter to the natural
Prcjudices Of all people in slaveholding
communities. But few days since,
recruiting agents from the distant State
of Massachusetts,, left the Kanawha
Valley with fifty negro recruits, and, we
lost both the men and the credit on our
quota. Surely, if the able-bodied ne.
grocs are to join the army, West Virginia
and not Massachusetts, should DO cred
tied with the number, and to that extent,
he relieved in the persons Of her white
men, in any future calls for additional
soldiers. We trust, all in this part Of
the State, desiring to enter the army
will join here instead of uniting with
rcsincnts from distant States or enlist,
ing in Ohio. BY a late act Of Congress
all soldiers are 10 receive SIC rer monLh
and instead of the bounty given white
soldiers, negroes are TO receive 500 90
when discharged from the service.
