I have been in sirvice continually since the beginning of the war, most of the time as an officer. I understand infantry tactics to perfection, & was for some time instructor in the officers' school of my regiment. I was through the whole of the fighting at Ft. Donelson, & commanded a company there. I was through the two days battle at Shiloh. I was aide-de-camp to Gen. Oglesby in the siege of Corinth, & was in several skirmishes with the enemy's pickets. I am able not only to drill a regiment & instruct its officers in administration duties, so as to make it thoroughly & permanently effective, but I can also <hr /> handle it to advantage in battle. New men, however excellent, cannot compete with officers of experience in organizing, training, & leading troops. I understand you have the confidence of the Governor.

Golconda, Aug 12th 1862 Hon R Yates Gov. etc: - Your kind and encouraging letter of July 31st must have arrived some days since, but as I have been absent in the "good work," it was not perused until to-day. Permit me a moment of your time for a reply. - I have been continually upon the stump in this (Pope), Hardin and Johnson counties. Everywhere the greatest enthusiasm prevails. I trust, sir, that we will have not the slightest trouble in raising the necessary number of men. And now, sir, having nearly discharged my duty in response to the call of yourself and the War Department, permit me to tend my own services as a volunteer in defense of the institutions of our country. During all of last winter I was in the employ of the Kentucky Military Board as Drillmaster. In March my health failed me, since which time I have been editing the Commercial in this place. I have numerous certificates of qualification (including one from Grig. Gen. Chas F. Smith, since deceased, then commanding post at Paducah.) I know you are besieged by applications of this character, but you must excuse me for asking, for if a man does not ask he will seldom receive, in this office-hunting age. A detail to some one of the camps <hr /> of instruction would probably enable me to attain a position without farther assistance. If you can confer a favor of this kind, I have only to promise that so long as I am identified with the newspaper forces - and that is my profession - so long will I esteem it a privilege to support your Excellency in all patriotic labors. I could have raised a company, but I preferred rather to address the people in behalf of the great cause we have so much at heart and let others enroll the men, thereby avoiding the "Butternut" charge of self-interest. Respectfully James W Howard Editor "Commerical" <hr /> James W. Howard, Editer Commercial, Golconda, Aug. 12. Asks to be detailed to one of the camps of instruction; desires position of drill master.
