Partisan Rangers.

            Maj. Robert White, who is at present connected with the Ordnance Department in Greensboro, N. C., has been authorized by the Secretary of War, and by the direct approval of the hero “Stonewall” Jackson, to raise a battalion, and if thought proper a Regiment of Partisan Rangers, to be composed of cavalry and infantry, or either as may be desired, to operate in Stonewall Jackson’s Department.  Maj. White has been in the service the past year, and will, we feel assured, make an excellent leader for a guerrilla party.  Call at once at the Ordnance Office Greensboro, N. C. and join the most attractive arm of the service before you are enrolled and taken off, under the conscript act.
