Doylestown Guards.—An adequate number of men
to fill up the ranks of this volunteer company have now
signed their names to its muster roll. Sixty persons joined
the corps at its first meeting on Thursday night, and since
that time, recruiting has been going on rapidly. The
intelligence of the progress made by the secessionists , and
the apprehension that Washington itself is now imperilled
inspired our young men with the determination to rally
to the nation’s standard. By Saturday night over one
hundred names were on the list. The members of the
company are now busily equipping themselves for Imme-
diate service, with proper under clothing. Each man is
to be supplied with two blue flannel undershirts, two pairs
of flannel drawers, four pairs of socks, one fatigue cap, and
a good pair of shoes or boots. Those who are not able to
purchase the necessary outfit for themselves; are being
supplied by the contributions of the citizens of Doyles-
town. The ladies have volunteered their services in
making up the clothing, and dozens of them are now at
work with needles and sewing machines. In two or three
days every member will be fully equipped, with the
exception of outer uniforms. These, it is understood, are
to be furnished by the public authorities, when the men
are mustered into service. Nothing is yet known as to
the when the company will be called into service.
It has been accepted by the Governor, and may be called
upon at any moment to march at a day’s notice. It is
not likely, however, that it will be required until another
requisition for volunteers is made on Pennsylvania. Com-
panies amounting in the aggregate to more than sixteen
regiments had reported themselves previous to the accept-
ing of this one. The muster-roll of the Doylestown com-
pany is as follows:
