Governor TOD,
Columbus, Ohio:
General Halleck reports against receiving any more batteries, the
Government being well supplied with that expensive arm. I there-
fore cannot accept any but those expressly authorized, and but one
has been authorized in Ohio. I would like to have cavalry. Have
you raised the regiment authorized some time ago ?

each of the counties of Clermont, Brown, Adams, Scioto, Lawrence,
Gallia, Meigs, Washington, and Monroe, for the protection of our
southern border and general service.
DAVID TOD,
