THE LATE MLIrIA.--Those who have
forgotten the basis on which the late
Militia Of Memphis was organized, will
be interested in the following extract
from General Orders No. 1877, issued
BY Major General s. A. Hurlbut, from
the headquarters ofthe 10th Army Corps,
Memphis, November 10, 1863, land pub
lished in the Daily Argus Of November
Is, 1863. 1t will be seen that all members
we're sworn into the United States SER

3. All persons residing under the pro-
lection of the United States, and physi.
cally capable Of military duty, are liable
TO perform the same in a country undor
martial law. Especially in the city Of
Memphis, where it is known that many
have fed TO escape liability to military
service at home, this rule will be strictly
applied. In pursuance, therefore, Of orr
dsrs to this effect from Major General W.
Il. sherman, commanding Department
and Army Of the Tennessee, al! officers
commanding districts, divisions and de.
tached brigades Of this Corps, will imme.
mediately proceed TO impress into the
service of the United States such able
bodied persons liable to military duty as
may be required to ell up the existing
regiments and batteries to their maxi.
mum. These persons so levied upon, il
they enlist for three years or the war,
will be entitled to the full benefits pro-
vided by the acts of Congress II not,

service and the advances made by the
Government in clothing, a certificate of
which will be given them when discharged
from such forced service, the question of

ARRAYS.
A Planter ON Cat Island Shot
Down by Another, Thurs
~ day Morning.
George CogbiIl, Of Witisburg,
Arkansas, Shot and Killed
ON Horseback.

Cat island, about twenty miles below
the city, was the scene Of most de.
plorable occurrence on Thursday morn
ing last. 1t seems that Major Order and
Mr.. Henry Bargeit-both well known in
this city, and who reside on what is
known as the Higgins plantation
quarreled about some business matter,
No hostile collision occurred at the time,
but on Thursday morning the parties
met on the road near the place, and the
trouble was renewed. The circumstances
leading to The deaouement we could not
learn; but are informed that Major
Order, who was on horseback, discharged
the contents of shot gun at Burgett
The charge lodged in the latter's body,
inaicting injuries from which his recov.
cry is considered doubtful Burgett was
brought to the city on the Natoma, the
better to secure medical attendance. We
have not learned of Msj. Orders arrest.
A couple Of weeks since Mr.. George
Cogbill was shot and killed by Mr.
Charles Z. Knight, merchant Of Wits.
burg, in the latter place. According to
the version we have received of the diff
ficulty, the killing was wholly unpro-
voked. Cogbill was on horseback when
approached by Knight, who asked ::
What's your life worth p Cogbill
replied that it was worth little to himself,
but a great deal to his orphan children
knight then drew Colts repeater, and
fred twice at Cogbill, who fell from his
horse pierced with bullets. After lin
gering foriy.eight hours he died,
leaving six motherless children un.
provided FOR. Knight was arrested,
but afterward escaped. He was then
recaptured, but being allowed to 60 to
his store in charge Of single guard,
both prisoner and guard disappeared,
and have not since been heard from.
Whether he killed the guard and con.
cesled the body, or there was collision
between them, is matter of conjecture.
The latter version of the matter is gen.
orally accepted in the community. The
tragedy and the prisoners disappearance
created intense excitement among the
citizens, who did not hesitate to denounce
the Sheriff of the county for permitting
the prisoner to escape so easily.
