Not on a "War Footing."

--The Goshen (Ind.) Democrat gives the following statement of the military status of Elkhart county!

Twenty old flint lock muskets — breech loading; twenty ramrods; ten cartridge boxes; four umbrellas; two thousand nine hundred and sixty pocket pistols. The muskets are very old and entirely unfit for service, but the pocket pistols are perfect, with the exception of sorke.
