to the sword, the last resort of contending Nations, should again become inevitable, either in defence of our common Country, or in vindication of her insulted dig nity, or violated rights, he shall think himself unhappy even beyond the common measure of human infirmity, should a continuance of his present misfortune prevent his yielding to the dictates of duty, or if requisite, of sharing with his brethren and comrades in arms, the sufferings and hardships, the toils and dangers of so hon- orable a contest.

It is hoped that the great extent of country embraced by the Division, and the urgency of the occasion, will apolo gize for the dispersion of the above Order through the me dium of a Newspaper; especially when it is considered, that a dereliction of established forms is not intended, whenever those may be consistent with convenience and dispatch.
