tape and through and round the covering of the
wire, thereby forming a knot, rendering it the
most perfect fastening vet discovered. The wire
used is made from the best Refined Watch Spring
Steel, and by the peculiar manner of rolling pro-
duces the necessary fexibility without sacrificing
any of the strength which it is well known a sim
gle bar has over plurality of bars covering the
| same surface.
The covering of the wire used in this skirt is a
fine double thread cotton yarn. the tape a two
inch extra heavy solid edge, the pads or cover

Muster of the Sirth.


The muster of the 9Th regiment militia at
this place last week passed off satisfactorily
for aught we know to both officers and lri-
Yates. The weather was superb, barring
a very hot sun at midday. The companies
were very full, there being fewer absences
than could have been expected. The SOL
diers marched, wheeled and carried their
guns like veterans, which very many of
them were. Quite a number of distin-
guished military men were present one Or
more days, among whom we noticed our
worthy Adiutant and Inspector General
Washburn, Gen. Ripley, Gen. Grout, Coils.
Blunt, AndrOss, ETC., etc. We understand
Gen. Washburn gave this regiment hand
some compliment for discipline, good
marching and bright muskets.
