I trial, under the head of "Patriotic resolutions of an old Richmond company," the Richmond Light Infantry Blues have re-enlisted for the war. I hope all Virginians have followed their example. You spoke of their being the oldest military organization in Virginia Allow me to differ with you on that point. We company "C," of this regiment, claim to be the oldest military organization in this State, and I have heard of none in the Confederate States of an older organization.

We have records to show the above statement (if the Yanks have not found and destroyed them,) in Portsmouth, Va. The company (refer to is the Portsmouth Rifle Company.
