Sunlury American, of the Ith iost.,
says :—'• The war exciteirent in this placa has rather in
sreasej than diminished. Troops arrive almost daily in
the cars. On Wednesday morning, the T* o'clock train
brought in al>out six hundred men irom the Northern
counties, namely : four companies from Potter, Elk.Me-
Kean and Cameron, under command of Col. Thomas L.
Kane, of Philadelphia, brother of Pr. Kane, of Arctic
celebrity. These companies are made up of the robust
and hardy watermen of the lumbering regions of the North
and West Branches of the Susquehanna, and look as it
they would be a match for double tliair number of the kid
gloved gentry, that constitute most of the army South.—
They are railed the " Kane RiCes," and uu-abcr about
300 men,commanded by Captains Wtx.-i.ow, Blanch ur>.
Ft drl.o aud Ovektox. The other three companies are
from Bradford county,a fine body of men, many of whom
are among the best citizens of the county. These compe
nies were respectively commanded by Captair- Gore,
Mason and Bkadbciiy. Many of those meo had break
fast at 3 and a o'clock in the mom'n - ;. and were truly
grateful for the refreshments furnished the.u by our cit : -
zens. They were accompanied by Gen. Mkass, Colonel
Ma dill, Captain Spalding, and other influential citizens
of Bradford county. On reaching Sunbury they were
greatly disappointed on finding an order from the Govern
or to the Superintendent of the Northern Central road,
at this place, forbidding the forwarding of any troops
without a special order. Col. Kane, in reply to his des
patch to the Governor, received au order to bring 131 of
his men. The Colonel, however, refused to sepa,ate his
men, and remained in quarters with them until the uext
day. A Sand slide having occured near the Relins grove
station, the regular train did not leave ou'il 2 P. M..
leaving seven companies, or nearly GOO men, to be quar
tered and provided for till next morning. Col. KANE and
his men occupied the Court House, the I.utlicran and Me
thodist churches. The other companies occupied the
lower rooms of the Public School building, the Episcopal
and Lutheran school rooms.
The ladies in the meantime converted the Grand Jury
room into a commissary department. Beef, bread, ham,
cgxs, butter, cakes, coftre, and other edibles, were bro't
in large quantities for the troops, many families having
parted with all the bread in their houses. A certain num
ber of men were detached from each company to the
commissary department, and were furnished by th ladies
with supplies of provisions ready cooked Cel. Madill sta.
tioned himself among the ladies to preserve order atnong
the troops as tbev bore away their rations. The troops,
before they took possession of their quarters, were ad
dressed by Gen. Means, Col. Kane, and others, who ex
pressed their warmest thanks for the hospitality and
kindness extended towards them by the citizens of Sun
bury, and appealed to the troops to commit no acts dero
gatory to th'-ir character as good citizens.
In the morning the Bradford county troops were form
ed into a hollow square, and in front of the Court House
nd addressed by Geu. Means. Three cheers were given
for the citizens of Sunbury, and three more and a tiger
tor the ladies. The companies then entered the cars.—
Col. KANE'S men theu entered the Square, and aftergiv
ir,g three cheers, fired a parting salute iu a solid body."
The Reorganization of the State
Militia.
Iff the lloti=e of Representatives, at Ilar
risborp, yesterday, Mr. liail, from the Select
Committee of that brunch, to whorne had

to confer brevet rank on all such officers of
the Pennsylvania troops as may distinguish
themselves for bravery, and the brevet rank
of second lieutenant on such non-eomtniitsioried
officers and privates as may distinguish them
selves by gallant and meritorious conduct.
The Governor is further required to call
immediately info the field and organize, for
the defence of the Commonwealth, fifteen reg
intents of cavalry and infantry, and also such
numbers of companies of artillery and rifles as
the interests of the State may require.—
Whenever the emergency of the stale may
require, he is empowered to call for any num

In addition to these departments,there shall

Major. These officers shall be recommended
by u medical board. Their ranks shall not
entitle them to promotion, nor, unless when

The bill dcclails that it shall not be lawful
for a volunteer to leave the State until he lias
been armed and equipped for effective service,
and has been accepted by the Governor under
a requisition ot the President. It shall be also
lawful for the authorities of any city, or bo
rough to assess and levy a tax for the support
of the families of all volunteers in service.—
This tax shall not exceed one milt on the dol
lar per annum.
All incorporated universities, colleges, and
academies in the commonwealth, are also au
thorized to establish, in connection with their
several institutions, as a military professorship
for the education of young nieu iu military
discipline and the art of war.
