Alexandria Gazette, Commercial And Political

No disposition was made of this Report--On Tuesday last, Mr. Stevenson, of Spotsylvania, submitted the following Resolution:

Resolved, That it is expedient, to raise by such classification of the militia as is recommended by the first proposition of the military report from the Secretary of War, or by some other classification of the militia, twenty thousand men for the defence of this commonwealth, to serve for three years, or during the war:--Provided, that the government of the United States, shall declare that the said troops shall be paid, clothed, and subsisted at the expense of the United States.

This resolution and the report have not been acted on--they both lay on the table.

Yesterday the House of Delegates passed a bill authorizing the Executive to borrow of the Farmers' Bank, $50,000. With a view of paying the troops now in the field, in the service of the State, a Resolution was same day also passed, by the Legislature, authorizing the Executive to effect a loan--the Farmers' Bank agreed to make one, on condition that they draw an interest at the rate of 7 1/2 per cent and the principal be returned out of the first monies which shall come into the Treasury in 1815--and upon the Governor's making a report of it to the House of Delegates on Tuesday, the said bill was passed by the House.
