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.
SIMON SNYDER,

A motion has been submitted to the Sen-

To speak his thoughts—
Is every Freeman’s right.’
Gov. Snyder’s majority over Mr. Wayne,
from the returns already received, is about
18,000. When the returns are complete,
it will no doubt exceed 20,000.
It seems that we were under a mistake
when we stated in our last that the federal
candidates ior congress in the district
composed of the city and county of
Philadelphia and county of Delaware, and
John Wood of Putsburg, were the only 1ed-
eralists elected to the 14th congress. Mr.
Isaac Wayne, the gentieman who was also
a candidate for the executive chair, is e-
lected to congress, by a majority, from the
counties of Mont: omery and Chesier. A
Mr Henderson. a tederalists, of Montgome-
ry county, is elected to fill the vacancy
occasioned by the election of Jonathan Rob-
erts to the senate of the U. S. until the 4th
of March next. | ;

county, a federalist; is elected to fill the va-

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. Letters
from Sackett’s Harbor of the 20th inst con-
tain no news.”
Aletter fiom Albany to the editor of the
Columbian, dated Saturday morning says :
« The legislature will adjourn on Mon-
day. The war measures are progressing.
"The bilis for raising the sea fencibles, and
black regiments, passed the assembly yes-
terday, and the militia ai d tax bills, are on
their way.——A bill was introduced in the
senate yesterday, for raising 4,000 volun-
teers to complete the (20,000 men contem-
plated by the government, viz. 12,000 state
corps, 2,000 sea fencibles, 2,000 Blacks, and
4,000 volunteers, as a) war establishment
of the state. The act for raising the 12,000 *
was objected to by a member of the the
council of revision last night, but will prob-
ably receive his final sanction this morn-¢

Mr. SECRETARY DALLAS’ REPORT.
Which was laid before congress on the
18th Oct. 1s a document bespeaking a capa-
clous and statesman iike mind, and is cloth-
ed ma diction pure and perspicious. 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.
These are, 1st. .n increase of the pres
ent direct and internal ievenues.
2. The raising of the additional internal
"venues, calculated to yield 7 or 8 millions
ol dollars per annum
3d. The establishment (at Philadelphia)
of a national bank, with a capital of 50 mill-
ions of dols.; 2 thirds of the stock to be sub-
scribed by individuals, the remainder by the
United States’ government. The instal-
ments to be paid partly in specie, partly in
United States’ stock. The bank to be ob-
ligated to loan to the United States, when
required any sum not exceding 80 millions
of doljars, at an interest of 6 per cent.
We trust that congress will lose no time
in giving their sanction to a plan which ap-
pears to us to be calculated to relievefthe
country from its financial embarrassments
