--The requisite number of companies to form this regiment are in camp and embodied under the proper head.
Col. Gilham is an excellent tactician, and the
State and the
Confederacy of whom his regiment are the representatives may expect to have a good account of it. His regiment is composed of the the following companies:--Company ‘"F.,"’ commanded by
Captain Cunningham; Buckingham Leaches, by
Captain Leach; Turkey-Cock Greys, by
Captain Witcher; Cumberland Greys, by
Captain John Booker;
Red House Volunteers, by
Capt. Mosely; Meherrin Greys, by
Capt. Burkley;
Capt. Mustelua's company, a company from
Baltimore, with two more good companies, all well armed.
The Cumberland Grays and Turkey-Cock Greys are armed with the best rifles, and are strong, active men, and will do good service.
