labor on the fortifications.
IL The Confederate authorities have made a requisition
upon the State for Two Thousand lubor -s monthly.
The proportion of one-fourth heretofore ca'. . for, had
failed to supply half of this number. In of this
fact and the great urgency of tho demaut labor at
this time, it is deemed expedient to shorten t.ie interval
between the calls, and increase the quota. This is
no violation of the law, for it does not fix the quota of
labor, nor the interval between the calls, but prescribes
that such proportion shall be called for as will fill tho
requsition, giving thirty days notice. Each Division
iu the order fixed will be required to furnish this
quota, and no injustice .will be done, to any.
III. All parties, whether individuals or companies,
who own or employ more thau one road hand, are required
to furuish their quota, (one-half) unless relieved
by-detail from Department Headquarters. Tins can
relievo only those hands permanently engaged 011 the
specific work for which tho detail was granted Coin-'
missioners of roads will jive -their attention to this
matter anu report to ims omco. ? ?
. IT. Great confusion exists from the'imp&fect man-,
ner 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 be present to verify tho quota
of each owner, and prepare correct lists.
"Within five dttys after delivery on this call they will
please forward to this office names of defaulters in their
respective divisions of roads.
