additional regulation for the enrollment
and draft of the militia which has just been
issued will show.

are here renderingvaluable assistance in
the formation of regiments. A regiment
will leave Lancaster to-morrow fully
armed and equipped for the seat of war
Several other regiments will leave here
to - Morrow,and from present. appearances,
Pennsylvania will have fifteen regiments
in the field within a week, while others are
rapidly forming.
WASHINGTON, August 13.—A long cor
respondence is published between Gens.
Halleck, 1.7„ S. A.; and Lee, of Confeder
ate army. The latter inquires into the
facts - of the hanging of Mumford at New
Orleans, and Owens in Missouri, and also
the imprisonment of Confederate citizens
refusin; to take the oath of allegiance to
the United States. Also, regarding Hun
ter's arming slaves against their masters
in South Carolina, and Gen. Phelps at
New Orleans. Also, Gen. Fitch, who is
reported-to have murdered two peaceful
invading
our
because one of his men
our country was- killed by an unknown
person while defending his home. Lee
threatens retaliation, and says he is au
thorized by President Davis to say that if
answers to these inquiries are not received
in fifteen days from the delivery of the
letter, it will be assumed the alleged facts
are true and sanctioned by the rnited
States. In such event, on that Govern
ment will rest the responsibility of retali
ation which shall be adopted to put an
end to merciless atrocities which now char
acterize the war against the. Confederate
States.
Gen. Halleck says the Government i,
not officially informed of the facts regard
ing Mumford and Owens : that no one has
been forced to take the oath of allegiance,
hut when parties take and break it. they'
will be dealt with as ordered; that no
threats of retaliation will deter this Gov
ernment from what is right and according
to rules of warfare.
Regarding the last communication of
Lee, Halleck says to hint: " Your lan
guage is so very insulting to the Govern
ment, I decline to receive the commun
cations, and they are herewith returned
-.-----
WAsencoTox, August 14.—The follow
ing additional regulations for the enrol
ment and draft of the militia was issued

practicable among the subdivisions of
counties, so that allowances • shall be
made to such counties and subdivisions for
all volunteers heretofore furnished by
them and mustered into the service of the
United States, and whose stipulated term
of service shall not have expired.
Signed. E. M. Sr_mxrox,
Secretary of War.
NEW YORK, August. lt —The advises
from Port Royal state that the negro
brigade proved to be a titilure, and has
been disbanded.
A fugitive contraband who arrived at
Port Royal stated that there were only two
thousand rebel troops at Savannah. Fie
also said that the ram was a mere floating
battery, of little power, carrying eight
guns, and its officers were afraid to take it
out of the Savannah river.
The rebels are in strong force on
James and Dawfuski islands.
PHILADELPHIA,. Aug. 14.—Tlicr second
skeleton boat race took place this after
noon on the Schuylkill, between Ward of
New .York and Hammill of Pittsburgh,
the betting being one hundred to ten on
the latter. Hammill was again victorious,
making the five miles in 37 minutes and
49 seconds, coming iu a quarter of a mile
ahead.
WASHINGTON, -August 14.--Those who
ought best to know deny that there has
been a change "of M'Clellan's army from
the Peninsula, and assert that he is still at
his headquarters at Harrison's Lauding

The Champion Sculling Match
on the Schuylkill.
WEDNESDAY . S RACE.
Un Wednesday afternoon the long ex-
Fected contest for the sculler's champion
ship, between Joshua Ward, of Newburg,
N. Y., who has in the past ten years,
proved himself the champion in fifteen
single scull races, and James Hammill, of
this city, a glass-blower, unknown to fame
except as the winner of a scull race on the
Fourth of July regatta at Boston, came off
on the Schuylkill river near Philadelphia.
The match, as is well known, comprised
two races, each for $5OO, ($250 a side,)
the first for three miles, to take place on
the 13th of August, and the second for
five miles, to occur on the day following.
The Schuylkill was selected as neutral
ground, and the. men began early in the
week to practice and become familiar with
the river. Ward and his party went to
the Falls House and Hamad and friends
fbund accommodations at the Belmont
Cottage. As the day approached for the
race, the partisans of both men mustered
in large force, those of our Pittsburgh
champion being the most numerous.
Boatmen and gentlemen interested in
yachting were also attracted by the im
portance of the occasion from Boston,
Newburg, and other points.
At an early hour ou Wednesday after
noon a large concourse assembled near
the course, numerous vehicles lined the
road along the banks, and the bridges
were thronged by interested spectators,
while the river was dotted with hundreds
of pleasure craft. The Pacific Boat Clue
of Philadelphia had a busy time in keep
ing the course clear for the c:mtestants.
The course commenced below the
heading Railroad bridge and extended
a mile and a half down to near
the Columbia Avenue bridge, where two
buoy boats were placed, each man turning
a separate one. The judges, four in num
ber, were Captain Goodwin, ofProvidence,
Rhode Island, and John Rancor), ofNew
burgh, New York, for IVard: Stephen
Roberts. of New York, and Joseph Bash,
of Pittsburgh, for Hammill. The judges
selected as referee William Kent, of Ros
in"
tour o'clock the men came up to the
judges' boat for the race. Ward, a stal
wart man, long bodied and of great length
of reach, was attired in a white shirt and
white handkerchief. His bout, the "Dick
Risdon,'• is made of Spanish cedar, :30 feet
long, 14 inches wide, weighs sbout4Opounds,
and was built by Sharr. a well-known boat
builder at Newburgh. The sculls used
were of the style known as "spoon
scull,'' about t' fi et long. Hammitt,
a full-chested thick set, muscular
looking man, wore a blue shirt, with
red and white skull-cap, His boat was
about the same length as Ward's, a trifle
narrower, and nearly the same weight,
built by Stephen Roberts. Sculls the same
as Ward's. As they pulled about before
the race, quite a difference in their styles
of rowing was apparent, and this differ
ence was the more marked as they rowed
in the race. One of the judges for each
man was in the starting boat, and the
other two were at the turning boats, while
the referee rode along the banks of the
river, so u.s to command a view of the
whole race.
After a false start, occasioned by some
misunderstanding, the gun was fired for
another start. hlammill, pulling a short,
quick stroke, soon took the lead, and then
lengthening the stroke settled down to the
work of keeping ahead. Ward pulled off
with hid long, sweeping stroke, and kept
well up with his opponent until they
readied the bend. Here Harumill shot
ahead, and left Ward about a boat's length
astern.
it soon appeared that Ward was making
hard work, while our man gradually gained
upon him, pulling easier and evidently
confident of winning. His numerous
friends cheered him loudly from the
banks,
many running along so as to
keep him in sight. On reaching the
upper stakes, Hammil was four or five
boat lengths ahead, and rowin g easily,
'Ward still laboring hard. On the home
stretch the same order was pursued, Ward
spurting once so as to reduce the distance
to about three lengths, it: which relative
:iition they passed the judges' boat.
re time made by Hammitt was hcenly
co minutes and twenty-two seconds.
This was the first race in which Ward
wad been beaten, and his friends, much i
chagrined at the result, predicted a success
for him yesterday, but they were doomed
to disappointment, es the telegraphic ac
counts show, for Harutuill had another
easy victory, and is now champion of
America.
The First Nine Month's lieglin't
The first regiment under the new call

Banquet.
On Wednesday evening last at "Our
House," Diamondalley, was given asump
tons banquet, by the employees of the ex
tensive trimming and notion house of
Eaton, Macrum A: Co., to three of their
fellow-clerks, who have volunteered for
the war in the Sumner Infantry, under
Captain Seibert: Messrs. Mark Kurtz,
Clem. Elben and Hezlep Powers. The
arrangements were made in the most liberal
style, and the affair was at once both splen
did and sumptuous, all the guests enjoying
themselves to the top of their bent. The
usual amount of toast-drinking, speech
making and music was indulged in, and
several private presentations were made
during the evening. The gentlemen in
whose honor the banquet was given are
eminently worthy of the respect and es
teem so willit gly bestowed upon them by
their late associates : and we trust that
they may at all times reflect credit upon
themselves and their friends; and that they
may find as warm admirers in the rank
their company as they leav of
Eaton, Macrum & Co.
For the War.

Oar Quota of WIRe irontlue Neu.
AsAere is some variame-concerning
the companies which make ap'our quotitof
nine-months men, we publish the follow
ing corrected list, furnished by the Execu
tive Committee:
Cass Infitntry, Capt. Gast. 101 men.
Howe Engineers, Capt. Aden's, Mt!
men.
Butchers' infantry, No. 1, Capt. Dan
ve_r, 101 men.
Butchers' Infantry, No. 2, Capt. Max
well, 97 men.
Walker Infantry, Capt. Tyler, 101 men.
Clark Infantry, No. 1, Capt. Clark, 104
men.
Clark Infantry, No. 2, Capt. Boisol y 105
men.
Clark Infantry, No. 8, Capt. Drum, 9
non.
Tarentum Infantry, (2 companies) Capt
Boyd, 217 men.
Keystone Infantry, Capt. Bayne, 101
men.
Union Infantry, Capt. Wright, 101 men.
Sumner Infantry, Captain Seibert, 100
men.
31'Clintock Guards, Capt. Larimer, 92
men. .
Semple Infantry, No. 1, Capt. Moody,
)1 men.
Making a total of 1,516 men.
The Semple Infantry was not included
in the quota as first made up—the Turtle
Creek Infantry occupying its place. But
owing to the rush upon the mustering offi
cer, the company last named could not be
mustered in on Saturday evening, and by
Monday they had become dissatisfied with
their officers, separated and joined other
companies by squads. It was then too
late to replace them by another nine
months' company, and: the Semple In
fantry, sworn in for - three years, were put
in to fill up the quota. Some of the com
panies, it will be perceived, have an excess
of men, others are a few short: when they
go into camp, men will be detached and
assigned to other companies to make all of
the maximum number.
Sixty-one Companies.
A few days since we published a list of
thirty-seven companies forming in this
city fbr the second requisition, and now we
give a supplementary list, of twenty-four
companies more. This makes sixtysoue
companies, and there are some two or three
we are yet unable to give :
Sellers' Infantry, Capt. Zach.
Plummet. Guards; Co. B, Capt. Chits. S.
'ittsburgh Invincibles, Cupt..l. El
Ferguson Light Infantry, Capt. 11. M
Caldwell.
Robinson Rifles, Capt. 11. M. C. White
Semple Infitntry, Co. C. Capt. E. M.
Jenkins.
Curry Infantry, Capt. D. G. Smythe.
Watson Infantry, Capt. R. A. Colville.
Kramer Light Infantry, Captain J. J.
Johnson.
Graham Rifles, Capt. J. M. Sample.
Anderson Cavalry, Captain Frank 11
Ward.
Heintzelman Rifles, Capt. J. AV Donald.
Rhodes Infantry, Capt. C. C. Taylor.
Flernier Sharpshooters, Capt. H. Muhl.
Lloyd Infantry, Capt. W. 0. Stewart.
Cornplanter Infantry, Captain J. C.
Klett, Jr.
Marshall Infantry, Capt. N. Kelly.
McAuley Guards, Capt. J. J. Hall.
Logan Guards, Capt. 0. W. Marsh.
Sterling Guards, Capt. S. P. Taylor.
Fremont Invineibles. Capt. C. G. Me
'
Bennett Zouaves, Capt. .1..1. Benitz.
Bucktail Brigade, Capt. •f. D. Harty.
Springer Barham/11 Cadets, Capt. C.
Several of these are new companies and
have but few men enlisted, others have
forty, fifty. 9ixty and up to ninety, while
a few are flail to the maximum. We think
forty each a small average and this would
give a total 012,440 men recruited —almost
enough to till the second call. If assur
ances were given that these men would be
credited on the draft and camp Howe was
opened, the companies could easily be
consolidated and the required number
ready within a week.
A New Enrollment.
Marshal Murdoch, who is to superintend
drafting in the Western District, returned
yesterday, with full instructions as to the
manner of proceeding. We understand
that a new enrollment is to be made (in.
stead of the farce partially gone through
with by county officials) by officers ap
pointed for the purpose by the Marshal,
who is now having the necessary blanks
prepared. When the enrolment is com
plete, claims for exemption will be passed
upon by a comaissioner, who will make
legal and technical investigations, on evi
dence, if need be, and a surgeon, who will
make examinations of the physical con
dition of would-be exempts. In this way
it is hoped and believed that all able
bodied men between the required ages,
not legally exempt, will be brought under
the operation of the draft, should there be
one.
Promoted.
We are gratified in being able to state
that Capt. John W. Patterson, of Co. E,
102 d (Col. Rowley's) regiment, has been
commissioned Major of the regiment to
fill the place of the lamented Poland. He
is a brave and competent officer, served
gallantly through the three months • cam
paign, raised another company for three
years and was wounded in the lungs at
Fair Oaks. Capt. Patterson is of just the
right stamp to ensure further promotion,
though a young man, before the close of
the war.
The J. K. Moorhead lofitntry.
This bids fair to be among the best of the
companies now recruiting here for the war
and many consider it a "crack corps."
Capt. J. H. Hughey, who has seen service,
enjoys the confidence of his men in a high
degree snd large accessions are daily made
to his ranks. He will be full in a few
days and early applications only will se
cure the private bounty offered and a place
in a fine company. IVe advise young men
about enlisting to step into Capt. Hughey's
office on Fifth street, and examine the
roll.
Allegheuy Police.
Alderman Miller, Mayor pro teas of Al
i lefheny, has appointed William Bowden
High Constable, to fill the vacancy caused
by the enlistment of Samuel Long, now
Lieutenant in the Clark Infantry, Co. C.
Officer Tyler, one of the police force, has
resigned, leaving two vacapcies, which it
is said will be filled by Messrs. Fairman
and McKnight, but the appointments have
not been made.
Gone Back.
Capt. J. K. Barbour, of the Ninth Re
serves, who received a severe wound in
the hand at Gaines' Hill, disabling three
fingers, left last evening to resume his
duties in the field --accompanied by Capt.
J. B. Barbour, Chief of the Commissariat
wiih Col. Samuel McKelvy, of General
Heintzelman's corps, who hag also been
home recruiting his health. Both go baCk
much improved in general health and ap
pearance.
Again.
The well-known swindler of Allegheny,
George Thompson, was arrested yesterday
and forced to disgorge $5 which he ob
tained from Dr. Scroggs, by representing
himself as a recruiting officer, in which
g-uise he has procured various small sums
from patriotic citizens.
The Noss of Theephs.
The front lobby of the Theatre has been
thrown open by Manager Henderson and
three recruiting officers are drumming for
recruits there. The actors have started a
company, with D. 0. Smyth as Captain,
which is prograildng thiely.

Itatumili Victorious.
The intelligence from Philadelphia last
evening was to the effect that the five mile
race on the Schuylkill yesterday resulted
in another easy victory for Hammill, who
led his competitor, Ward, a quarter of a
mile in 37::39. Hammill is now the cham
pion of America.
Ilatupton's Battery.
The new ieeutrel section of Hampton's
Battery, raised here by Lieut. Joseph L.
was, on Wednesday, at Camp Curtin, uni
formed and equipped, but not armed, and
expecting hourly to leave for Irashington.
Toe battery numbers fifty five men, and is
the best body of men yet sent to Camp
Curtin under the new requisition.

Democratic Nominations in
Blair.
The Blair county Democracy met at
liollidaysburg, on Wednesday of last week
and nominated Col. Archibald McAllister
for Congress and Maj. T. Snyder for State
Senate. No county ticket was formed.
The Bishop Bowman Monument.
The laying of the cap -stone of this
monument, which occurred on last Friday
morning, was an interesting and solemn
ceremony. The Bishop, it will he remem
bered, died suddenly with an apoplectic
tit, while walkin ,, un t he traek of the Alle
gheny Valley Railroad, a short distance
below Tarentum, on the of August,
1861. The monument, in the language of
Bishop Stevens-, who delivered the address
on the occasion, was the tribute of the
Bishop and clergy of a diocese to one
whom the whole diocese loved. ft is
erected on the spot where the Bishop so
suddenly died. The monument is a rock
of Freeport stone, fourteen feet high and
divided in three sections. lu the first see
tion is a marble tablet, hearing this ap
propriate and elegant inscription :
"On this spot, August Bd, ISGI, tire Rt.
Bev. Samuel Bowman, D.D., Assistant
Bishop of Pennsylvania, was. in an in
stant, called from his Master's service to
his reward. The angel of God met him
alone in the way,
and 'he was. not, for
God took him.' An humble and unselfish
man of God—a faithful and devoted bishop
in the church of Christ."
in the second section is the insignia of
the Bishop: the mitre and the cross; the
key and the crosier: and the Bible, with,
on the one leaf, the words, "The time is
short,'' " lte ye also ready;" and on the
other, "This stone shall be a witness unto
us."—.toshua, xxiv., 27th.
On the upper seemon is a representation
of the cross, in bob crelief, and, on each
side, the name of Bishop Bowman, in
raised letters.
The monument was erected by Mr. Peter
Reniers, on Penn st., above Wayne, and
(Nes great credit to 'the artistic skill and
workmanship of that gentleman.
After the selections from the 21st. 27th
and 84th Psalms, Rev. Dr. Van Deusen
read part of the 2d chapter of 2d Kings.
The chant; sung by a portion of the choir
of St. Peter's Church,.was very solemn and
impressive.
We cannot give even an outline of the
eloquent address of the Bishop. It was a
just tribute to a worthy and lamented man,
and was delivered in a manner that proved
the eloquent divine, to be in earnest in all
he said in behalf of the character of his
lamented predecessor.
Among the clergy present, we noticed
Rev. Dr. Van Deusen, of St. Peter's;
Rev. Messrs. Slattery, of St. James'
Mayer, of Chartiers ; Smith, of Union
toWn ; Crumlish, of Columbia; Edwards,
of Lawrenceville; Hilton, of Kittanning,
and White, of Butler.
