CORRESPONDENCE, ETC.
the Ninth, at Fort Scott, is idle there and one of the best regiments
in the army. I would suggest to have these regiments called into
active service at once. That can be done sooner than new troops
raised.

Governor of Wisconsin.

The Krupp cannon was forwarded to-day. I can send you for
ninety days a battery of artillery with 130 men, 6-pounder cannon and
12-pounder howitzers, caissons, battery wagon, forges, and all
appointments new and complete, except horses, which can be fur-
nished at short notice. Several companies of militia tender their
services for ninety days.
Respectfully,
