Yesterday the regiment of militia of this County were under arms here, in order to ballot for their quota of men to be sent to

head quarters, agreeable to an act of assembly for compleating the continental battalions of this state, when with great cheerfulness a considerable number of volunteers turned out, and very few men were balloted. A very handsome and generous bounty was raised for the men, and every possible means will be taken to accommodate them with every necessary for the ease and facility of their march.
