WHERE DID THEY GET THEME

A telegram was received by Gen.
Sherman on Monday, forwarded by an
army post of the Upper Missouri or
Yellowstone, stating that the comman-
dant of that post while on board OF an
nuity boat chartered by the Govern
Ument specially to carry annuity and In
dian goods to the Sioux nation, which
was lying at the landing, discovered nu-
|merous boxes among the cargo without
any Government mark, but labelled
:" Axes, hatchets, scythes, hardware, )"
&C., which excited his suspicious to
that degree which caused him to open
them, when they were found to contain
two thousand stand of Sharp's breech-
loading rifles, with fixed ammunition to
match for loading the same, and ad-
dressed to prominent trader.
The despatch was forwarded with q
characteristic endorsement by Gen.
Sherman regarding the folly of attempt
|ing to keep Indians quiet if the Pence
commissioners posts are to be used by
fpeculators for purposes of smuggling
arms OF the superior pattern for sale to
those tribes most inclined to be hostile,
while settlers are unable to obtain even
common loading pieces. 1t is probable
hat explanations will follow between
he War Department and that of the In
erior on this subject.

Der of the lost at seventy-two. The

The investigation into the cause of

the Wawasset failed to ask or receive
special permit to carry more passengers

ATTENTION, VETERANS.

The roster OF officers and colored men
of New Jersey regiments who took part
in the late rebellion is now going through
the press. We have seen the first pages
of this work, and can truly say for style
and general arrangement it will be the
most complete work Of the kind ever
gotten up. Several states have COM
piled and completed works of similar
character, but so far none will compare
with the one now being prepared by the
adiutant general Of this state. As New
Jersey furnished over lightweight thou
sand men it will be readily seen that it
has required considerable labor and
research. 1t is intended to not only
show who were connected directly with
New Jersey organizations, but those
who were known as of New Jersey in
organizations under the control of the
general government, such as Hancock
corps, Veteran Reserve corps, OF U. s.
colored troops. The enlisted men of
these organizations are fully accounted
for, but the officers being commissioned
by the general government the roster
OF these are at the present not complete
We think this might be remedied by
such officers as were thus commissioned
to Immediately notify General Stryker,
the adjutant general of their service,
giving dates of commission, organiza-
tiuns in which they were connected, and
date, place, and cause of their leaving
the service. By so doing the roster of
New. Jersey can be made full and COM
plete, and full credit be given to those
who took part in the rebellion. 7
