STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. Headquarters, March 5, 1861. rpHE PRESIDENT OF THE CONFEDERate States, tlirough the Secretary of War, lias called on me, as Governor of South Caro Una, to furnish five more regiments for and during the war. Now, then, under this requisition, I do hereby call for men to come forward as volunteers, individually and separately, or by companies now formed of not Jess than sixty-eight aggregate to the principles laid down in the resolutions of the Council hereunto attached. Tenders of service will be made in writing to the Adjutant General's oflice in Columbia. Those volunteering as individuals will be formed into companies as soon as possible, the officers to be appointed by the Governor and Council. The Secretary of War, in his requisition, 6ay?, that "each soldier will receive a bounty of fifty dollats when the Regiment or Company is mustered into service, and will be allowed transportation from his home to the place of rendezvous," and will also be clothed, supplied and armed at the expense of the Confederate States. No man liable to duty will be allowed to enter any other company now in service for any term until this requisition for tive infantry regiments be complied with. If these Regiments are not formed by volunteers by the :20th instant, then a conscription will be made to meet the balance of the requisition, upon principles which wiil be announced in general orders of detail issued by the Chief of the Military Department, in connection with the Adjutant and Inspector-General. I need not make an appeal to the people to meet this requisition. The country is in danger. We have met with reverses. There is no alternative. We must fight for our homes and our altars. No people are fit to be free unless they are willing to march through the per ils of severe conflict and battle. This State was the cradle of the revolution. Let her sons now hang out their battle Hags from every llAino I of na tnnbo !>'? I avuivt uvt UO limau tnv." UliUU Ulli; LIILlUlltlUJU camp, and, if \vc are to fall, let every freeman find, at least, a soldier's grave. Let all come to their country's call. It we are brave and true, there is no permanent danger. W ithout difficulty and peril, independence itself would not be valued. No people wore ever free without dangers and struggles. Our true safety is to meet every danger with more indomitable courage, and to rise higher with any and every disaster. In the war of our first revolution, South Carolina passed through far more despe rate trials. Under the guide of the God of Battles, wc must rise to our destiny, and from our very defeats gather renewed strength in the defence of our firesides and of our homes. Given under my hand ami the seal of the State at Columbia, this the 5th day of March, in the year of our Lord one iIioumb [l.s. ]and eight hundred and sixty-two, and ot the independence of the State of South Carolina the eighty-sixth. K. W. PICK UN'S. Resolved, hy the Governor and Council, That in view of the great requisition tor troops for the war by the Confederate Government, no person not now under orders, subject to military duty in South Carolina, shall be permitted to enter Confederate service for a less time than for the war.
