Governors of several states telegraphed to the war department that their quota oould be easily doubled or trebled. All want to know if they cannot be permitted to furnish an extra regiment or so. These messages were very cheering to the officials of the war department, but since there are so many who desire to fight it will be necessary to hold each state strictly to its own quota. Answers to this effect were sent out. The volunteers are not to be mobilized at once. Each state will take care of its own troops for, the next few daysand wait for ordefs from the war department. It may be the end of the week before they are moved. While it is the purpose of the war department to secure only national guardsmen as far as possible under this first call for volunteers, yet in states where there are no national guards or where the number falls below the quota stated in the call, the Btates will be expected to supply the volunteers regardless of their lack of organization. In fact, this must be done under the law. On the basis of Saturday’s call for 125,000 men the various states and territories, including the District of Columbia, will be called upon to supply each the following number Os volunteers: Alabama 2,500 New Hampshire. 752 Arkansas 2,025 New Jersey 2,962 California 2,238 New York 12,513 Colorado 1,298 North Carolina.. 2,681 Connecticut .....1,607 North Dakota... 161 Delaware 341 Ohio 7,234 Florida 756 Oregon 829 Georgia ..........3,174 Pennsylvania ....10,769 Idaho 232 South Carolina... 747 Illinois 6,601 South Dakota.... 1,850 Indiana 4,402 Rhode Island 710 lowa 3,772 Tennessee 8,060 Kansas 2,772 Texas 4,229 Kentucky 3,407 Utah 425 Louisiana .......1,940 Vermont 634 Maine. 1,256 Virginia 2,913 Maryland 1,942 Washington 1,178 Massachusetts ..4,721 West Virginia....
