The 2Dth Regiment, n. G. r.

Some days since we received and published what
purported 10 be historical sketch of the Goth Reg
ment. Such sketch appeared to be semioficial, and
was correct so far as went. We have now at hand
copy of the official document addressed by Col TOOK
to Captain j. II. FoorE A. A. g. which gives tables
etc omitted in the report sketch already alluded to-
such sketch having evidently been copied taken in
some way from this report by Col TooN. The Estates
represented the States other than North Caro-.
6na.
although We have so recently published the sub
ssnce this sketch minus the tables, think it due
Col TOOK to give the document to the public in it,
complete form -

RESOLUTIONS CONSIDERED.
The following resolution introduced yester-
day by MIR. Barry was taken up
Resoicl|, That the Committee on State
Affairs be- and they are hereby instructed to
inquire and report to this House whether. in
their opinion any legislation is necessary to
protect the rights of men volunteering into
the service of the United States, from the
depredations Of rapacious sharpers and plum
derers.
Mr. Barry advocated the resolution with
considerable earnestness. lie said he had
witnessed everywhere, III high places, and
low places, the greed OF gold ftttening on the
blood and tears Of the people, but the worst
form of greed the most wicked and devilisb.
was that ofthe corfnorants proving on human
life as brokers in filling quotas for towns hv
means of extra bounties to volunteers. Conn
pared with them jeff. Davis and the arcbest
rebels are manly and honorable in compare

modified his religious creed so far as to adj
NIT Of hell for traitors rapplausel but he
believed in a darker and deeper dananation
for those who were plundering orr ,-oIup-
teers. He had no charity for those n,er, Some
of them around Provost Aiarshalls offices and
some outside who were dverting the benev
olent provisions of counties and towns made
for volunteers, to filling their own pockets,
heaping up riches, some at the rate of 5000
or $500 daily by means Of their broker-sh
in this matter Ii there was any possible
means of throwing protection around those
men barring their breasts to the storm of bat
tie and standing as wall OF fire between us
and ruin against such harpies, in Gods name
let it be done. Mr.. Barry proceeded to de-
nounee the whole drafting system as great
blunder, and oppression, and to express his
fears Of tendency to military despotisn.
The resolution was adopted.

Bounty FUND LAw.-We publish this week
in another column the law lately passed au
thorizing towns, incorporated villages and
cities to raise money by tax for the payment
Of bounties to volunteers. Just at this time,
this law is much needed and anxiously look
ed for, and we therefore hasten to lay it be-
fore our readers The Madison Journal of
Saturday last speaking of this bill, says:
''The law seems to be defective SO far as
relates to cities and villages in not provid-
ing where the meetings shall be held and
how organizedand conducted. A bill was intro
duced iii the Assembly this morning, by Mr.
Galloway, remedying this defect, which was
passed under a suspension Of the rules. The
bill provides that meetings shall be held in
cities and villages, Or in towns by having
but a single poll, and the electors present at
the opening of the polls shall choose from
among their number board of inspectors
of which the village or city clerk shall be the
clerk. In case of his refusal or inability to
act, the board may appoint clerk of the poll
The notice for the meeting must also state
where the election will be held"

1t is asserted, apparently on good authority,
that Gen. Uraga has been negotiating with
Macmillan upon terms of submission to the
Empire, and that the conditions on which II
was made contingent have been accepted. Ac'
oepting the news az true, we cannot bat regard
it as the severest blow which has yet befaller
the National cause. Uraga has always shown
himself one of the ablest Generals in the
National army-ono Of tho few men on whose
talents ths friends Of tho Mexican Republic
based their hope for q successful resistance to
the invasion and for the final triumph Of
Juares. II would be- useless to deny that with
the detection of Uraga, the prospects of our
neighboring Republic become more gloomy.

hosyy detachm ents away from that point. 1t
may prove the cause of his destruction and the
prelude to the fall Of Richmond. At'dl events
we can ask nothing better in military
point of view than such suicidal divis-
ion of the army of the Rebellion. An inva'
sion of Pennsylvania or attack on Washington
is not mihtarily consistent with the security Of
Rich mond. Lees army is an army OF de-
fense-notorously inferior in numbers to that
of Cen Grant, and able to resist it solely
by acting on the defensive. When 1t attempts
to reverse the conditions of its successful opera
ton, its inferiority of numbers will insure its
d eieat.
From which it follows that the event OF last
Saturday has by no means changed the situa'
ton, or the relations between Gen. Grant and
his antagonist The siege Of Richmond con.
tinues, and the effort which will most accelerate
its fall is such movement into the Shenandoah
as Lee Is supposed to be making
