GOV. BUckiNGHAM's CALL A RINGING APPEAL
Call of Famous Norwich Patriot Dis covered Among Southbury Mans Papers.


 On an old yellow Sheet of paper among the possessions of his father, the late Bethuel Treat. B. N. Treat, of Southbury, has discovered a procla- nation, issued by Connecticut's war governor, William A. Buckingham of Norwich, during the Civil war. which with it's ring of patriotic appeal is es- pecially interesting in these days. It reads:
 A PROCLAMATION! Citizens of Connecticut:
 You are again called upon to rally to the support of the government. In the name of our common country I call upon you to enroll your names for the immediate formation of six or more regiments of infantry, to be used in suppreSsing the Rebellion. Our troops may be held in check, and our sons die on the battlefield, but the cause of civil liberty must be ad- vanced; the supremacy of the gov ernment must be maintained. Prompt and decisive action will be economy mics. and even the nation, may be imperiled. The Rebellion, contending with the desperation of a hopeless and wicked cause. must be met with equal energy and determination. Close your nanufa ctories and workshops; turn aside from your farms and your business: leave for awhile your fam lilies and your homes; meet face to face the enemies of your liberties. Haste. and you will rescue many no-@ ble men now struggling against su- perior numbers. and speedily secure the blessings of peace and good gov ernment. Given under my hand and the Seal of this State. at the City of New Ha- ven. this third day of July, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-two
