We clip the following frbm yesterday
evenings Times from its home war Incl
dents


"Some three or fonr hundred Of the
three months men took their departure
for home yesterday, and among them a
large number belonging to the Guthrie
Grey Regiment. In one instance nearly
an an entire company &c, late Captain
Lane's,) marched to the cars. Other
three months volunteers refuse to leave
the camp unless they are provided for by
government. They claim that they have
done their duty two months With ut pay,
and are willing to continue another
month but to be turned out upon the world
without cent is unjust and unieeling.


1Iundreds Of those no have already
left the camp had not money enough to
buy a world, if worlds had been selling
for cent apiece. Ragged, pennies, dis
couraged and angry, they took their de.
parture, with curses upon red tape diplo-
macy, which has thus far swindled them
ont Of their just dues. Who will not feel
indignant at the treatment Of our volun-
teers, when we assert the fact that many
Of those who came to the city from Camp
Dennison yesterday afternoon, iost night
slept in tie stotion house, because they
chad no money to pay for lodging, and
were too proud to beg Is it to be won
dered at that so small proportion, com
paratively, have been willing to join the
Cincinnati Regiments for the war 90


These troops volunteered under the call
of the President and Governor of the
State, for three months, to meet snp.
posed pressing exigency. They were
among the first to offer their services to
their country. We all recollect the en-
thusiasm of all classes that greeted their
hearty and prompt response to the call
for volunteers. We were all thankful, and
did n OF suppose we could do too much
to show our appreciation Of their patriot
ism. They volunteered as State T. oops
} to be employed in the service of the Uni
) ted States. The Legislature of the STATE
appropriated some three millions of dol.
lars to put them in condition for service
and continue therein three Ia onths. How
badly they have been treated under the
auspices of the Governor and his pets ev
rybody knows. In the meantime, i
, was discovered at Washington that thu
rebellion was going to be a more seriou,
affair and would last longer than was a
first supposed, and that, therefore, three
months men would be of little account
, Three years men, or to serve during the
war, were alone wanted. Great effort,
were then mad to get the three m onths
men to change their term of service to
three years or during the war. Fully
one half-those whose business would
permit, or who were without families,
and who had received better treatment
than others--entered for three years The
others, who considered themselves as
having been scandalously treated, who
i did not like their officers, or whose busi
ness would not allow, refused to change
their term of service from three months
to three years. How have they Jared
since this determination, the extract from
the Times is but faint picture, most
scandalous as that is. These men deserve
our gratitude for what they did-in vol
unteering for three months. They aided
by their conduct to make the great public
sentiment of the North which has aston
ished the world in its notwithstanding a
mighty uprising Of whole people to put
down rebellion, which cannot be sue
cessful without destroying the Union
Do these three mon tbs volunteers deserve
no thanks, no kind looks, no kind words
fer all that ? We think they have been
most shameiullv treated not only while
in camp, but ON leaving it, They are
sent off without a copper, an left to beg
their way home This is the work of the
Governor and his pets. They were State
troops and were to be cared for by the
State, an how shamefully that has been
done, we all know. he last act is how
ever, the meanest of all.--Logan Gazette.
