Feminine Zouaves for active service.

-- The Buffalo (N. Y.) Commercial is credibly informed that a female Zouave Company is organized, uniformed, armed and equipped in that city, and have for several weeks past been perfecting themselves in military movements, under the direction of a competent officer. They have attained to such perfection in drill that they, contemplate parading in public within a couple of weeks. It is said also that they are organized for no simply holiday purpose, but intend volunteering for field service, and if that is refused them, they will offer themselves as hospital assistants and nurses.
