It was supposed by many citizens that were an opportunity offered for men to enlist for the same term as the law provided for drafted levies-nine months-larger numbers would avail themselves of it to volunteer for that period who declined to accept a longer service. Willing to afford every reasonable encouragement to the disposition so generally manifested to furnish all the men required, without resorting to draft, and fully mindful, also, of your obligations to the National Govern- ment, your Excellency, on the 29th of November, issued a pro- clamation, which so clearly represents the situation at the time, and is so intimately connected with our State military record, that I take the liberty of presenting it in full, under the conviction that this Report would be incomplete without it:
PROCLAMATION.
To the People of the State of Michigan :
It is essential to the maintenance of the honor of the State, by meeting its obligations to the Federal Government, that the quota of the troops required of Michigan under the call for 600,000 men, should be speedily furnished. I have felt great confidence that this might be done without resort to a draft, but it will be impossible at the rate enlistments have been making for the last month and more. The number required of each town and ward in the State has been assigned upon the principle of giving credit for all recruits furnished since the first of July last." Substantial justice in this respect has been done toward all. To be exact was impossible, and to go back of the first of July was impracticable, both because the order of the Secretary of War did not authorize it, and because there

was no reliable record by which such credit could be made up with any chance of fairness.
It is, therefore, indispensable that the several towns, and wards of cities, should furnish the number of recruits assigned to them, and I take this occasion to assure the people that un- less the men are furnished by voluntary enlistment, they will be taken by the draft.
For the purpose of still giving abundant opportunity to fill the quota of the State by voluntary enlistment, recruiting will be continued as follows:
1st. Recruits will be received for new regiments now form- ing in the State, and for all the old regiments now in the field, until, and including, the 29th day of December next. These must be enlisted for the term of three years or during the war.
2d. From the 1st to the 16th day of December next, volun- "teer recruits will be received for old regiments only, to serve for nine months, in pursuance of the act of Congress.
3d. On the 30th day of December next, the draft will com- mence and proceed until the requisite number is obtained in all those towns and wards which shall then be found delinquent.
Less than four thousand men are now required to fill the en- tire quota of the State, and I earnestly hope that they will be found to come forward cheerfully, and enlist for the war, as all our troops thus far have done. And I desire this, not so much because there is anything discreditable in a draft, as because it is exceedingly desirable that all the troops from Michigan should stand on the same footing in the army. Let the people of Michigan make one more loyal and vigorous effort, and the entire number required can be obtained, and the high reputa- tion of the State for patriotism and promptness will be main- tained.
AUSTIN BLAIR.
Dated Jackson, Nov. 29th, 1862.
According to the records of the recruiting service in this State, as kept at the office of Col. Smith, the Superintendent, the entire number of nine months' volunteers who had been entered up to the date of this report, was six.
While there is no doubt that many townships have filled, and some of them more than filled, their proportion of county quotas, it is yet true that in the State at large, and in many of the counties, there remains, at the date of this report, a small de-

The most strenuous efforts have been made, by most of the townships and wards yet behind, to furnish the number required of them without recourse to a draft, and for this purpose large local bounties are offered, and other efficient means of recruit- ing are employed. Many counties expect to, and will probably, succeed in escaping a draft altogether.
Within a few days a supplementary return will be furnished from this office to the several commissioners, giving them the names of such volunteers as have enlisted from their respective counties since the completion of the list previously sent to them, as far as they have been reported here; and the labors of those officers will then have reached such results that, with the assistance of this return and the general instructions which will accompany it, they will be prepared to draft the deficiency of each township with great promptness.
The enumeration ordered in your proclamation of August last, has resulted in obtaining a very reliable knowledge of the military strength of the State. In some of the remote and sparsely settled counties, the officers have not yet made the required returns, but in most of these counties the full quota has already been furnished, while in others it is too small to warrant a resort to the draft, especially while our rela-
20
ANNUAL REPORT OF THE
tions with the Indian tribes are at all precarious. The most considerable and the least remote of the counties on the Lower Peninsula, which has thus failed is Gratiot, which three months . ago had furnished twelve more than its quota. The Upper Peninsula had furnished three companies of men when the ar- rangements for the draft were being inaugurated, and reason was given to expect further additions of volunteers from that region, to the full number required. This fact, in connection with the then disturbed state of the frontier counties, led to the omission of any preparation for a draft in that section of the State. Instructions had nevertheless been sent to the county officers to obtain a military census, but at the present date no returns have been received, though there is ground for believing that the duty, in some of them at least, was performed.
The results of the military census, taken under your procla- mation of August, are presented in the table below. The total number enrolled by the assessors, and the number of exemptions made, are inclueded in those cases where the information is furnished by the commissioners, in their reports. There is also given in the last column, the number enrolled by the assessors, and returned to this office by the county clerks, in the month of June last, under the requirements of the " Act for the re- organization of the military forces of the State of Michigan," approved January 18, 1862. In cases where the figures are omitted in this column, the counties failed to make returns. The want of uniform rules in the practice of enrolling officers under the State system, as regards persons claiming to be ex- empt, leads to many irregularities which in future legislation on this subject should be guarded against. In making the en- rollment under the late order of the War Department, assessors were required to return the names of all white males between the ages of 18 and 45, leaving claims of exemption, of whatever character, to be determined by the officers appointed for that purpose.

ed in June un-
The total population of the counties above enumerated at the census of 1860, was 715,595. The proportion of persons residing therein who are subject to draft is as 1 to 857-1000. The counties which have made no returns are Alcona, Alpena, Chippewa, Delta, Gratiot, Grand Traverse, Houghton (included with Keweenaw in 1860,) Iosco, Leelanaw, Marquette, Manitou, Manistee, Muskegon, Osceola, Oceana, Ontonagon, Presque Isle, and Schoolcraft, and their aggregate population in 1860 was 35,415. The same ratio which rules in the counties from which returns have been received, would produce in the counties last mentioned, a military strength of 4,507, making the aggregate of persons yet remaining in the State between the ages of 18 and 45, and subject to draft for military purposes, 95,578, less the number of volunteers who have enlisted since September 10, 1862.
It is proper, before taking leave of this subject, that an ac- knowledgment should be made of the fidelity, judgment and industry, with which the Commissioners generally, appointed by you in this State, have performed their laborious and diffi- cult trust. The position is one which necessarily involves much embarrassment, but, as far as the knowledge of this de- partment reaches, it is believed that the duties belonging to it have been performed with a conscientious regard to the inter- ests of the government, of communities, and of individuals.

AGGREGATE OF MICHIGAN TROOPS MUSTERED INTO THE U. S. SERVICE DURING THE WAR.
The various tables and figures which have been presented in this report, furnish the following aggregate of volunteers mus- tered into the service of the United States, in Regiments, Bat- teries, &c., known as Michigan organizations, from the begin- ning of the war to the 23d of December, instant:
Total, including recruits sent to the field before July 1st, 1862,. 24,281
"Lancers" and " Hughs' Horse. Guards," regularly mus- tered into the service, but disbanded without leaving the State, 987
Three Regiments Cavalry, ten of Infantry, and one Bat- tery, since July 1st,. 13,739,
Recruits (including six for nine months) received from July 1st to December 23d, 2,162
Estimated strength of three Regiments Cavalry, two of Infantry, one of Sharp-Shooters, and two Batteries, now organizing in the State, 4,400
Total, 45,569
This does not include volunteers from this State who have gone into the Regiments of other States, to a number known to exceed 1,400. A considerable number of recruits have also been enlisted in the State, during the summer and fall, for the regular army, probably three or four hundred at least. Before the close of the present year, a company of 101 officers and men, already enlisted to serve as Provost Guard at the Bar- racks in Detroit, will also be mustered into the service of the United States, increasing the aggregate presented above by that amount.
The volunteer force included in the preceding summary, comprises about one-third of the entire military strength of the State.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE
TROOPS IN PROCESS OF ORGANIZATION.
The Regiments and Batteries now in process of organization, in this State, are:
Twenty-seventh Infantry, Col. D. M. Fox; rendezvous at Port Huron.
Twenty-eighth Infantry, Col. E. Doyle; rendezvous at Ypsi- lanti.
Seventh Cavalry, Col. W. D. Mann; rendezvous at Grand Rapids.
Eighth Cavalry, Col. John Stockton; rendezvous at Mount Clemens.
Ninth Cavalry, Col. Jas. I. David; rendezvous at Cold water.
First Michigar Sharp-Shooters, Col. C. V. DeLand; rendezvous at Kalamazoo.

It is estimated at the date of this report, Dec. 24, that 4,400 have been enlisted in these organizations.
MICHIGAN TROOPS IN THE FIELD.
Familiar as this Department must necessarily be with the history and the fame of the troops which the State of Michi- gan has sent to the field, it is not easy to restrict the language in which their services are mentioned to the measured tone of an official document. Taken from the most peaceful avoca- tions of civil life, these men of the plow, the workshops, the counter and the schools, are converted during the vicissitudes of a single campaign, into heroes. No nation has ever wit- nessed in its armies, even after years of the training which war brings with it, a more marvelous development of soldierly qualities than have already characterized our own troops. Patient in discipline, indefatigable on the march, enduring
25

under privation, fertile in expedient, untiring in the trenches, and ingenious in construction, they have added to all these merits the highest glory which can be won by undaunted valor in the field. There has been scarcely a fortification erected, a bridge built, or a road opened for the use of the national ar- mies, since the war commenced, towards which aid has not been rendered by Michigan volunteers; while every important action has illustrated their heroism, and almost every battle field is consecrated by their blood. They were at Bull Run, and at Ball's Bluff, at Rich Mountain, at Lexington and at Donelson, at Pittsburg Landing, at New Madrid, at New Orleans, at Hil- ton head, at Wilmington Island, at James Island, at Fort Pu- laski, at Baton Rouge, at New Bridge, at Williamsburg, at Fair Oaks, at Hanover Court House, at the Chickahominy, at Gaines' Mills, at Malvern Hill, at Winchester, at Manassas, at Cedar Mountain, at Corinth, at Iuka, at Perryville, at South Mountain, at Antietam, and at Fredericksburgh. They have signalized their devotion to the country's service in Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri, Mississippi, Alabama, Louis- iana, South Carolina, Georgia and Maryland; and their reputa- tion is cherished at the hearthstones of every loyal State in the Union. Their services are eagerly sought by all our best Generals, whether to construct a defense, to lead a forlorn hope, or to storm a battery. The history of these times will rear an imperishable monument to the bravery and patriotism of all the States which, in this hour of trial, have enlisted their sons in the conflict, and the honor of one will at all time be among the precious possessions of the others; but it will be for Mich- igan to cherish with peculiar pride and tenderness the recol- lections and the fame of the gallant band of patriots, who in the fiercest struggles of modern warfare, and among comrades of equal worth, while vindicating the integrity of the nation at large have reflected undying lustre upon her own escutcheon
The subjoined sketches of the various Regiments in the field from this State, are intended to furnish an outline merely of the

character of their various services. More than this would be impracticable in a report of this nature and at this time. The information furnished is derived mostly from the returns of the Regiments, and where it fails in precision and fullness, it is for want of the data which those returns should contain. No at- tempt is made to eulogize individual Regiments. Nor is it necessary. The naked record, taken in connection with the history of the war, is of itself an eulogy higher than any which might be attempted by words.
The figures given in connection with the names of officers in each Regiment, indicate the date of commission.
FIRST INFANTRY.
The First Regiment Michigan Infantry, (three years,) organ- ized after the discharge of the first Regiment of three months volunteers, left the State, with the exception of two detach- ments which soon after followed, on the 16th of September, 1861, having a strength, in officers and men, of 950. Up to the first of July last, 27 recruits had been added to this force. During the winter which followed, the First was encamped at Annapolis Junction, guarding the Baltimore and Washington Railroad. In March it moved to the Peninsula, and has since been in eight engagements, viz: at Mechanicsville, June 26, 1862; at Gaines' Mills, June 27; at Malvern Hill, July 1; at Gainesville, August 29; at Bull Run, August 30; at Antietam, September 17; at Shepardstown Ford, September 20, and at Fredericksburg, December 13 and 14. In the action of Bull Run alone, it lost its Colonel, (Roberts,) Adjutant, four Cap- tains, two Lieutenants, and twenty-one men, in killed, while more than fifty per cent. of the remainder of those who went into battle with it were wounded. At Fredericksburg, the losses were one officer and seven men killed, and seven officers and thirty-three men wounded. The alternations and casualties in this regiment, from its organization to the 1st of November, 1862, were as follows:
