GENERAL ORDERS.
Harrishwrghy July 22, 1814.
To Jous M Hysemax, Adj. Gen.
IN conformity with a requisition by the
~ President of the United States, dated July
4th gy! 814, and to me directed, you are com-
manded to have in readiness to march ata
moment's warning, the militia within the
divisions as numbered within the act entitled
“ An act for the regulation of the militia of
the commonwealth of Pennsylvania,” pas-
sed the 9th April, 1807, to wit, 1, 2, 8,4 5,
6, 8, and 9, heretofore drafted for the ser-
vice of the U. States; and immediately to
proceed to have drafted agreeably to law, a
number more as added to existing drafts
cxcept such as _may have served a tour of
duty) shall amount to 14,000 men ; and to
have them, as soon 2s possible, mustered
armed and equipped within the Brigade, re-
gimental or battalion bounds, as shall be
most convenient and best adapted for the
service, and placed under their proper offi-
cers ; but not tobe considered as in actual
service, until directed by subsequent orders
to take the field.
Animated, as I believe they will be, by the
example of our volunteers and drafted mi-
litia who have sought and beaten the ene-
my without our territory, those sons of Penn-
sylvonia, who have hitherto reposed in the
lap of security, but whose distinguished
characteristic is known to be’ love country?
it is confidently anticipated will, at this im-
portant crisis, when a feroceous and power=
| ful enemy dictates as their terms of peace,
« unconditional submission,” be prompted
by a voluntary tender of service, to super-
cede the necessity of any draft.
Itis with pride and with pleasure the
commander in Chief refers to those corps,
who in General Orders of the 25th of Aug-
ust and 5th of September, 1812, by. name are
handed down to posterity on the splendid
roll of Fame, as the first fruits of Patriot-
acm. a
Phe Governor embréces this.
signify his acceptance of the tender of ser-
| vices of the following corps, made subse:
quent to General Orders of the 5th of Sep:
» by the following command-
occasion to,
tember, 1812
ing officers:
Thomas Walker, Captainof: the “ Harrris.
burg Volunteers,” 1st brig. 6th division.
Clement; Biddle, do. ¢ State Fencibles,”
1st brig. 1st division.
Andrew Mitchel, do. Rifle Company, lst
brig. 7th division. hs
Henry Reed, do. « Benevolent. Bigs” 2d
brigade, 1st division. =
James Noble, do. Light Dragoons, do. Ist
7th division.
Nicholas Beckwith, do. Rifle Company, 2d
| brig. 12th division.
. Samuel Dunn do. Rifle Company, 2d. brig.
7th division.
And to express also the high s giibication 3
he fells, that gow the occasion having oc-
curred, they will; one and all, with the de-
termination of Freemen, realize the patri-
otic professions in their several communica.
tions contained.
As evidence of unabated zeal and patriot :
ism, he refers with exultation to the result
“of a meeting by the generals and other offi-
cers of the Ist division, held on the 20th of
June last, breathing sentiments honorable
to, and can emanate only. from the bosoms
of those whe are determined not to live, but
ander fair Freedom’s sway. Do so like-
wise. 5
