General, &C., the number of men furnished
during the present war by the said State
OF West Virginia, and the number furnish.
ed by each county thereof, and also their
time Of service.
ResOlvsd, That when the Adjutat Gener.
al shall make such report, in pursuance of
said resolution, we recommend that the
same be referred to a joint committee of
the Senate and House of Delegates, with
Instructions to inquire whether, taking the
number of men heretofore furnished by
this State, and their time of service, the
requisition now made upon us is not uu.
equal and unjust, when compared with
that made upon the other loyal States of
the Union, considering their populs ton
and number Of men actually liable to mill
tary duty, the number of men furnished by
them, and their time of service.
ResOLUed, Further, That we recommend
that when said committee shall make lite
report,i that copies of the same be forward
ed to our Senators and Representatives in
Congress, with resolution, instruoting
our Senators and requesting our Repre-
sentatives to Immediately call the atten-
tion of the Oabinet.at Washington to the
subjects indicated in these resolutions, to
the end that if injustice has been done US,
in assigning the quotas under the present
call. the same may be speedily corrected
and adjusted.
On motion of Ira Hart, Esq, it was
ResoEVed, That the Governor and Legis-
lature of this State be requested to take
immediate steps to have re. enrolment of
the persons liable to draft in this county,
this meeting being satisfied that gross err
rorseXist in the present enrolment; and that
the Supervisors of this county be request
cd to have such re- enrolment made.
a On motion of Isaac Prayer, it was
LResolved, That the proceedings Of this
meeting be published in the CIarksburg
Telegraph aud the Wheeling IatslIigsnesr,
and that Capt. b. B. Stone, of Wheeling,
be notified of the action of this meeting by

The Richmond Whig of the 21st says it
does not know where or when Beauregard
will give Sherman battle, but if the latter
continues to march towards Richmond he
marches to his DOOM. Beauregard is Sher.
mans master 10 ell the arts Of strategy and
tactics. He will retreat when proper and
fight when proper. s1g1T Y5lo
! The Examiner argues that Richmond is
more safe new than in May last, when
Grant was moving and there eawas so much
panic IN the city. 1t says II is true they
have not as many troops now, but neither
has the federals by great deal. 5lT at 3-
The Sentinel of the 2lst learns that Gen,
Roddy has successfully encountered the
federsls several times innorthern Alabama,
and succeeded in driving them inside their

NEW YoRK, Feb. 24.-The Richmohd
Examiner, OF the Gath, says: We have. by
telegraph, a confirm alton Of the report we
gave yesterday, of cavalry raid in the di.
rection of Tarboro', N. G., and also re-.
newal of the movement Of the enemy up
the south side of the Neuse river. We
know that official intelligence has been re-,
ceiVed here, giving much more manifest
account of the latter movement than the
popular report of it, and it is supposed
that Fosters forces or portion Of them.
have moved up'to Newbern, to operate
from there, probably, upon the Whining
ton and Weldon railroad. There are no
doubtthat the loading of troops at New.
bern, and the reinforcement Of Terry, al
Wilmington, are both intended to aid or
cooperate with Sherman.

r...... SAVANNAH, lGa., Feb. D..
"When left you fortnight ago
hoped my destination was Savannah, but
did not contemplate being left here; 1 had
in miUd the pleasure ofjoiuing Sherman's
march, enjoying the satisfaction of see
ing the downfall of Charleston, and sweep
ing through South Carolina. There is
nothing that suitsime so well as marching,
nothing::that makes'the weary time pass
so swiftly or suits my health better. But
comfortable quarters in Savannah are
what men would not generally complain
of-and I certainly shall not forget SOL
dier's duty SO much as to object to whats
ever disposition is made of US. There is
work enough to do here; the men have
too much for our small force one,-diVis

'..The army is now in very healthy
condition, but the city is very dirty. The
street commissioner is busy carting off
rubbish, and before the hot weather
comes will probably have it clean. The
weather is now like our April-on clear
days open windows and a liking for the
shady side of the streets. 1t is a beauti.
full city, laid out rectangularly with nus
merous green's at regular intervals, and
all the streets shaded with live oaks,
The people are not visible to any great
extent am very much afraid the peoa
Pile at home will xaggerate,-do exsg.
gerate,-to the detriment of the loyal
cause, the loyal sentiment of the people
here and elsewhere in the South. I
know that there was general belief at
the North before left home, that Savan-
nah was more than half Union in its sem

If the people are loyal and glad to see us,
we should see some evidence of it. Men
and women would come into the streets,
they would hasten to resume their ordiS
nary habits, to resume trade, at any rate
to show us welcoming faces; they do no
such thing. have hardly seen one
white face that looked friendly, and
have been enough in rebel towns to know
the difference between friend and foes.
No doubt they want to treat US well, be-
cause they are in our power, but they
have been willing rebels, and are now
conquered, not friends. They want to
save their cotton, and will be quiet if our
successes continue; but if Savannah
were clear of our army, and we should
suffer serious reverses, their loyalty
would vanish rapidly. They take the
food and wood we give them, but it is
stealthily done, and any open offer of
personal kindness are received. with
scorn.
1 greatly fear that the Northern people
will be too lenient with traitors and reb-
els, too glad to grant peace. 1 hope and
pray it may not be so,-thRt the precious
blood may not have been shed, L will not
say in vain, for great blessings have al
ready been secured, but without the full
accomplishment of the grand objects for
for which we have suffered SO much.
