THE VIRGINIA AND NORTH CAROLI
NA IRREPRESSIBLES.
JtiserieH P. 0. Hanover Connty, Va.,
' July 29, 1861. J
Under this name it proposed to get up a regiment
it ten companies of 1 04) men each, including officers,
making 1,000 men. We are to wear citizens' clothes
and to use saeh arms as we ean furnish ourselves.
A pair of Colt's pistols, bowie knife and a double
barrel gun, with a Jitanie ball or a good rifle; to
pledge ourselves to Serve during the war wherever the
President may choose to place ns ; to serve without
pay.
. The main object of this organisation is to avenge
the death of General Robert S. Garnett, ot Virginia,
and Colonel Charles F. Fisber, of North Carolina.
Those who wish to form such - a regiment, will sig
nify their assent by writing to me at the above post
office aad when we have 60S men we will report out
elvM for duty, and go on increasing the number until
it amounts to 1,000. -
Tho design is, that the number shall always be kept
up by new enlistments- whenever vacancies occur by
death or inability, and no other cause ball release a
man from his obligation. I will act as private, or in
any capacity tbe regiment may direct When our
number reaches 500, we will request the President In
appoint a Colonel of his ewn selection, and muster
us into service at Richmond I will advertise the time
of meeting there as soon as I receive the names of 500
men. Each company will ehoose its own Captain and
subordinate officers.
THEODORE S. ARNETT.
gBTThe newspapers in Virginia aad North Caroli
na will doubtless pablish the above without charge,
twice a week for three weeks.
171 RES II MEDICINES " -
? AND TOILET ARTICLES.
Tbe Subscriber has the pleasure of announcing to
his friends and the publio generally, that after mujgi
delay trouble, and eipense, awing to the war, and o
terruption of trade, ho has preen red a fresh supply of
Medicines, Teilett aad othtr articles la his line, whieh
he has been unable to furnish for some time past.
He has to(pay CASH for all he buys; and hopes that
such of his patrons as doBot pay promptly, will take
.the hint, and that all in arrears, who have not gone to
the seat of war to fight for our independence and
dearest interests, will pay up their arrearages or a part
at least, so that he may be able to meet pressing de
mands, aad keep his Stock replenished.
All orders from - tbe country (unless from
prompt and reliable parties,) will go unnoticed, if not
accompanied with the CASH er its equivalent.
