CoLuNBUs, April 26.
Advices from several parts OF the
State indicat, that the National
Guard will tum out on Monday with
an aggregate strength much greater
than could reasonably be expected.
Substitutes are in great demand; as
high as else was paid to-day for the
entire 100 daIs service. The aver
age price, however, is about S100.
Civil officers who are members OF
the National Guard are not exemp-
ted, except post masters, their
clerks, DC, sll others must 60 or
furnish substitutes. 4 a. >
Some ofthe regiments will 60 on
duty this week to relieve veteran SOL

Assistant Provost Marshal, Gen.
Patten, and his clerical force are bu-
silly engaged in bringing up the cred
its belonging to the several districts
in Ohio, which will take two or three
days. When this is accomplished
nothing remains but to enforce the
draft. The number Of Ohio veter-
ans whose enlistments have been re-
ported up to-day, at the Adjutant-
Generals Office, is 1000.
Lieut. Col. ID. W. C. Loudon. Of the
10th Ohio, has been promoted to

SOur exchanges throughout Ohio
and the neighboring States have,
naturally enough, good deal to say
about the call on the militia. The
Sandusky Register relates the
fact that nearly every able bodied
man on Kelley's Island belongs to
the National Guard. Consequently
. pretty clean sweep is made by
the recent summons to the field
The CircIeville Union says that in
the several townships of Pickaway
county, almost all the young men
are taken. In the Union Office all
employees but two are members Of
the guards. In Illinois the volunteer
movement is progressing fayorably.
Chicago is organizing two regiments,
one OF them among the Germans
Fhe Board of Trade has voted to
retain the situations Of all employees
of members of the Board who enlist,
and pay the families of those who
need it 81 so a week while they are

SThe Chicago Tribune says of
the recent attempt to inaugurate
civil war in Illinois:
1t has ign ominously failed, and
the ring-leaders now in custody will
be made to feel the vengeance of the
outraged law. Their cowardly and
reasonable conduct has had on C
good effect at least, that of changing
the political aspect-of thes C counties
and imparting a healthy patriotic
tone in that vicinity. No Copper
heads can be found there now
Every man is a sound Union man.
We hope that the sudden conversion
will prove lasting. A few more affrays
such as these will teach sympathizers
wit. treason the utter futility of these
outrages upon our soldiers and
Union. men, and that their only
safety consists in unconditional
loyalty to the Government, and a
hearty cooperation to put down the
rebellion.

H Some fifteen Of the loyal
States have, through their Legisla-
lures and otherwise, declared for our
noble President, Abraham Lincoln.
To re-elcct him will be the hardest
lick we can hit the enemies of our
country. 1t will not only be putting
the seal of appreciation upon what he
has done, bnt will be saying to them
in most unmistakahle terms. that our
voices are still for war; that we will
never cease our earnest efforts to re-
possess every fort, and every foot of
land that they have attempted to
rob us of, and until we have removed
the cause Of the war, until Freedoms s
banner shall, wave from Maine to
Texas, from Idaho to Florida.

HThe news from Fort Pillow,
seems to be confirmed, and rather
aggravated in horror. The rebels
have often threatened to raise the
"biack aag", and there isno longer
any doubt they have done SO. Ter
rible as has been their system Of
warfare, and revolving as their a.
trocious cruelties to their prisoners
have been, our humane Government
still carried out the rules of civili-
zed warfare in every instance. The
infamous wretches only seem to have
grown bolder in consequence Of it
History furnishes no parallel to this
murderous,- cowardly attack upon
Fort Pillow, and subsequent destruc-
ton of the garrison.
This must not go unheeded. Ifthe
rebels viii have this history written
only in blood, much as it must be de-
plored, our government must meet
3he issue. Our soldiers white or
colored have right to protection.
The Government must see that they
have it, let the consequences be what
they may. Men wearing the uniform
of the United States must not be
murdered as dogs. If the investi-
CATION now being made of the Fort
Pillow massacre, confirms the reports
already received, then should Forest
and his gang be at once outlawed,
and shot without mercy wherever
found. If JEFF Davis could outlaw
Gen. Butler for hanging gambler
who defied the power of the Govern
ment, and threatened the peace of
the city, an act for which no loyal
man has ever censured Butler, then
indeed may these murderers be exclu-
ded from all rights of prisoners of
war.

SThe numerous friends OF Capt
III. III. Boggess, A. Q. NJ. will be
gratificd to learn that he has taken
charge of the post of GaIlipolis. On
account of i'll health, Capt G. j.
Stealey was compelled to tender his
resignation, which was not accepted,
but leave of absence for thirty days
granted him, and Capt. Perkins A.
Q. NJ. ordered to relieve him tempo
rarily. All persons having business
with Capt. Stealey, yet unsettled,
will find him at Parkersburg. 1t is
presumed that very little Of his bust
ness remains in that condition. No
A. Q. M. has yet left this post, who
aimed at keeping matters more
closely footed up than Capt. Stealey.
The laboring class Of our citizens
particularly, were promptly paid
their wages. a matter to them of no
small importance 1t would be a
matter of surprise indeed, that during
a period Of fourteen months, with so
great a press of business on hands,
he should not have displeased some
parties who had. or thought they had
business with him. On the whole,
every candid man must admit, that
his administration OF affairs at this
post, was as judicious and ecoBomi-
cal as any that preceded him.
Capt. Perkins, during the short
time he has been in charge, has rem
dered entire satisfaction. He of
course did not have an opportunity
to carry on operations very exten:
sively, but his gentlemanly deport-
ment and earnest desire to satisfy all
having business with him, has won
for him, the esteem and respect of
our citizens. To the outgoing Chiefs
and their gentlemanly corps, we ten
der our highest regards and best
wishes for their future welfare and
prosperity.
Capt Boggess can be found in the
building formerly occupied by Capt.
Stealey on the south side of the pub
lie square. ready to act upon affairs
with his arduous but thank
less office. ..
