A Timely Order.

The following instructions issued by
Lit. Col. Benton, commanding at ST. Al
bans, in view of recent events are timely
and judicious, and are as valuable here
as there. We commend them to the no
tice of our citizens, especially those who
have enrolled themselves for military ser
vice:
The danger to be apprehended is a
sudden dash and surprise. Accordingly
the essential point is to secure prompt
action.
To this end the citizens of all the front
Ter villages should have an organization
and be prepared to act under recognised
leaders.
Arms will be issued sufficient to equip
such companies. The arms so issued
should not be kept in any armory, or one
place, for such armory would be the first
place Ol dtldChs duu luC aIuio 81 ioouSN
would be used to defeat the purpose for
which they are sent.
The muskets should be distributed
among the members of the companies and
kept at their several places of business
with the equipments in such position as
can be put in use in the least possible
time.
Every member fthe companies should
be personally instructed in putting on bis
belts, and practiced till he can equip him
self in three seconds.
They shoold have frequent exercise
in raIlying into line, so as to be able to
get in order in the least possible time.
Too much pains cannot be taken to-
impress upon the citizens the necessity
OF being in line when we meet the enemy.
Unless they are so, it is worse than uses
less to issue muskets, for our own men
are in as much danger as the enemy
Besides in line there is much less expo
sure.
Properly organized, no party, howev
er small, need have any fear of attacking
the largest party of raiders, because they
cannot stop TO fight. They cannot know
how many reserves will come up, and
when resolutely attacked must yield or
run.
The chief object of the raiders is plum
der, but they cannot transport goods ex-I
cept jewelry. 1t is not probable they
could have the means and time to break
open even a common safe if the citizens
keep on the alert.
The best way for a mar to defend his
store is to unite with his neighbors aud
defend the whole village. If every man
stays at home to defend his house, the re-
suit is The whole village is taken in detail
and the arms kept in that way only
strengthen the enemy.
arms cannot be supplied to BE- used IN
this aOdy. 1t must be understood, that
whoever receives musket from the gov
eminent must pledge himself to use it in
some regular organization, and under
command of proper officers. Rules and
instructions in regard to the care of arms
will be furnished by the Adjutant Gen.
1t is to be understood that the organi-
cations here contemplated, are only till
the legislature makes other provision for
the danger, but they should be sufficient
ly permanent to last till the other action
Is provided, whenever that may be.
