II. Tlie Confederate authorities have made a requjsitioimpon tho State lor Two Thousand laborers monthly. The proportion of olio-fourth heretofore called for, hud failed to supplyNialfof this number. In view of thfs fact and tho great urgency of the demand for labor at < thi.-r time, it is^deenied expedient to shorten the ictorval between tho calls, and increase the quota. This is no violation of the law. for it does not tix the quota of labor, nor the interval bt tweenthe calls, but prescribes that such proportion shall be called for as will fill ,the requsition, giving thirty days notice. Enelr Division in the ohler filled will bo required to fun^Ph this quota, and no injustice will be done to bdj. III. All parties, whether individuals or companies, who own or employ more than one road hand, are required to funrish their quota,' (one-half) unless relieved by detail lrom Department Headquarters. - Tlrs call relieve only those hands permanently engaged on the specific work for winch the detail was granted- Cotnj missioncrs of roads will givo their attention to this matter and report to this office. . vy- Great confusion exists from the imperfect manner,In which the names of OY'ners,areVFcn to agents nt the sevorni depots. It is tho duty of one,. or more of tho Commissioners, to bo present to verify thoquo^i of each owner, and prepare correct lists. . Within five days after delivery on this call they will i please forward to this office names of defaulters in their resoeetive divisions o< roads. It. B. JOHNSON, i A cent of the State of So. Cn.
