''; The noblo- youths who havq- fallen in ^his snngtiina.
* -'ry at' ugglo are entitled to the gratitude and affection
of Hioir-coitntrymvu. with huarta full of patriotism,
nnd'spirits proud and itidoinitablc they stood to tlioir
posts until striekbu -to deatl^ challenging alike the
love of their ^omrnilcs undtho ^respect of the world.
And although it is sad to xamitemplate tlioir loss to
. their families ' and country, yet #thpir memories arc
.breathed in it halo of soft and beauteous splendor ;
tlioir deeds are cherished with fostering rare too sacred
tor, rode.orit'apie?and their names will.he handed down
tw tituo as'typlcal of this sWrnrevolution. Amongst
this^band of youthful martyrs glands the nanio of Sergeant
Til OS. LANG 130-YjtIN, whose spirit returned
to its God on the 3()ih of May, 18(51 at "Old Church,,
V.a." Counoctiog himself in September 1S62 with the
"Wateree Mounted ilillos," commanded.by his Father,
' Major 111. M. Boykin, ho served from that time until
April lust in this Slate,-when his company was transferred
to Virginia and attached to the 7(li S. C. Ciivalry.
ilo was untiring in the discharge of duly, and
.e.ver ready to undertake anything, however arduous
or hazardous. Devoting*his whole energy to the service,
lie was beloved by his comrades for his inanli*.
liess, impartiality nud courage, .1 fis charm ter was of
that mild vol linn order which qipetiy inafccs Irietids,

of life dcVeh T.CS into a solid, useful type, conducing
.to tho guod ol society and the cultivation ol the higher

He was truthful, candid and generous. His heart was
the centre ol ,puro emotion", high purposes and elevated
sentiments, surmounted with a profound respeel
for everything sacred. Ilia mind was bright and
cultivated, "giving promise of'rich fruit. As* a son and
brother he was alVeetiumite, as a friend, true and sincere?inoralj
upright and reverential, we helievey that
his sypl is busking in the. Himlight^f 'heaven. Alas
that ho should have fallen'o'i thivjlirpsliold? of life,
when liis promiseb were so bright atra his future radiftut

labor on the foriiHeat ions. .
li. The Confederate authorities have made a requisition
npot: the State tor Two Thousand laborers monthly.
The proportion ofoue-fout th heretofore called for. had
tailed to supply half of this number. In view of this'
fact iinil the great urgency of the demand for labor at i
lhis time, it is deemed expedient to shorten'? the interval
between the calls, iyjd increase the quota. TJus is |
no violation of the law. for it does not lis the quot.-^if J
labor, nor the interval between tho calls, but prescribes |
that such proportion shall be called for as will till the I
reqnsition, giving thirty days notice. Each Division j
in tlio order lixe'd will be required to lurmsh this (
quota, and no injustice will bo done to nny.
HI. All pnrtiosfwhcther individuals or companies,
who,own or employ more than one,road hand, are required
to furnish their quota, (one-half) unless relieved

relievo only those hands permanently engaged 011 the |
specific work for which the detail was granted. Commissioners
of roads will give their ,'ittenlion to this
matter and ruporl to this otliee.
!Ar. Great eonfusiou exists from the jinperfeel manner
In which the names of owners are given to agents
at the several depots.*' It is the duty of one, or more
of the Commissioners, to bo present to verily the quota
of each owner, ajid prepare correct list?.
