y ou wencral orders of the 22d July lastyand the adjuiant general’s detail thereto attached, agreably to the Presidents requisition of the 4th of the same month)notified agreeably to Jaw, to assemble in brigade rendezvous, & after an organization, as directed by a sup- plement to the sad law of 1807, to march in a direction to the Patapsce. Believing that the regular drafts, which “have or can be obtained from those brigads will be considerably less than one half the number required, and as ‘the drafts canpot by law be made from any other brigades the (Governor, in order to supply the deficiency directs the inspectors of brigades respect- ively. in the 12¢h, 13th, 14th and 15th divis- jons, to order into service two volunteer companies that have not performed accord- ie to law a tourof duty ; and if there be no such company in any of the said rlivisions. or not a number sufficient, he appeals tothe patriotism of such companies within the brigades comprising the said divisions as have voluntarily served a tour, to ‘march a- gain at this perilous crisisy in ‘defence of their country. He iswell aware of the hardships they have already sustained, and of the privations they have suffered, in the present contest forthe preservation of our national richts and independence ; and as these invaluable biessings are still jcopard- ized, and, unfortunately. from the defects of our present militia system a sufficient force cannot be coerced into service, be in- dulwes, for himself and for his country, the pleasing hope that his appeal will not be made in vain. No cavalry being required, and as there is litte, expectation that many such volun- teer corps will be called into service du- ring the present contest, the Governor fond ly anticipates that the patriotism which prompted them tq, associate and tender their services, will induce them to seize the present occasion to march in the capacity otinfautiy or riflemen. It is desirable that each company consist of oné hundred privates. To such compa- ny one waggon wiil be allowed and paid for by the United States, Every riflemen ought to bring with him his own rifle, powder- liorus, pouch screw-driver, wiper and bul- let-moulds ; which, iflostin service with- out neglect of the owner, will be paid for by (1e government at a reasonable valua- tion. The infantry, as far as practicable, ought also to be completely armed ; and every man must come furnished with a blanket, knapsack and canteen. Lxer- tions will however be made to furnish with knapsacks & canteens those who have not the means to do so themselves. Tents and other camp equipments will be provided by the government at the place of rendez- vous. The period of service will be six months, unless otherwise directed by fhe president of the U. S. It is confidently hoped that the patriotic feeling which has on similar occasions £0 honorably distinguished, Peonsylvanians, will on®this occasion prompt the wealthy to aid in the equipment of those who have not the means of providing themselves.

New-York, Oct. 25, ‘By the steam boat Fulton, arrived this morning from Albany, we have received the followihg letter from our correspond- ent. « Albany, Oct. 24. « The report of yester<ay that gen. Izard with his army had compelled the enemy to retreat towards fort George, and that they had crossed the river at Chippewa in pur- suit, is incorrect. The mail from Buffalo due last night had not arrived at Cananda- gua when it started from thence, so that we have nothing but verbal information. A centleman of respectability informs, that gen Izard had fallen back upon French Creek, in consequence, it was supposed, of the British having been reinforced.

We have retrained from expressing our satis- faction at the appointment of a gen- tleman so distinguished for his talents and acquirements, because we preferred to let his works praise him. But we will never withheld the meed of applause from public functionaries, who do their duty and are fit for their stations, any more than we+will be deterred from censuring incapacity & want of energy inthe executive departments of government. In doing both, we are influ- enced solely by public considerations, and caunot stop to calculate how our remarks may effect the feelings or interests of any.~ We look only to the welfare of the great re- publican party, and to the safety and honor ol our country We can hardly abbreviate this state pa- per without doing it injustice ; but as we shall not be able to publish it unti! our next, we will give an imperfect sketch of its con- tents. It commences with a frank and explicit view of the real financical situation of the country ; its wants ; resources, &c.~—and goes on to explain the remedy proposed to provide the means of prosecuting the con- test in which we are engaged to an honora- ble and successtul result.
