organized, with the exception of Cos.

1862. These two companies were or
ganized at the same city during the
Fall of 1863 for three years. Those
members whose terms would have ex-
pired previous to Oct. 1, 1865, were
mustered out June IT. 1865. and the
remainder, with the recruits of the 5th
Ind. Cav, were consolidated into nine

out Sept. IS, 1866. Tie regiment was

statement in this city some weeks ago
that Mr. Gompers has a very efficient

They also concede now that Mr.. Com

might offset the detection of conserva-

make that ordinarily Republican State
