The young men of this city favorably disposed toward a Military organization which may do the “State some service,” have formed under the title of the “Pulaski Artillery,” and have elected Rob’t C. Newton, Captain; Wm. E. Woodruff, Jr., 1st Lieut.; L.B. Brown, 2d. Lieut. And Wm. H. Causin, 3d Lieut. The organization is most perfect, and the officers, from our knowledge of the skill and capacity which they bring to the positions they occupy, cannot fail to render the “Artillery,” in the shortest possible time, an honor to the city and State and reflect credit upon those who aided in its inception, and whose labors have done so much toward placing in our midst a Military Company of so useful a character, and one too which promises to be so efficient. They meet to-night at their Armory over the Market House, when business of importance will be brought before the Company.
