The Confederate authorities have made a requisilion upon tho State for Two Thousand laborers inopthly. The proportion ol'onc-fourth heretofore called for* bad | failed to supply half of this number. In view of thin fact and tlie groat urirenej* of the demand for labor - at this time, it is deemed expedient to shorten the interval between the calls, and incrcascMho quota This is no violation of thy liptv. for it doea not fix tho quota of labor, nor tho interval between the call^ but prescribes that such proportion shall be culled for as will fill the requisition, giving thirty dayd notice. Each Division in the order fixed will be required to furnish this qiWfca. and no injustice will be dono to any. III. All parties, whether individuals or companies, who own or employ mora than ono road hand, are required to furnish their quota, (one-half) unless relieved by dotail from Department Headquarters. This can relieve only tboso hands j)ermanentl); engaged on the specific work for which tho detail was granted. Commissioners of roads wiil givo their attention to this tnatter and report to this office. IV. Great coufusion exists from the itliporfect manner in which the names of owners are given to agents at the several depots.
