Governor’s Island. <\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
As Governor\u2019s Island is one of the chief points of attraction at the present time, it is necessary to present to the reading public a daily account of what transpires there; at least during the movements of the military in our vicinity.<\/span><\/div>\n
There appears to be some little business going on. A number of recruits are received daily and are at once handed over to the tender mercies of the drill sergeant.<\/span><\/div>\n
The schooner John N. Genin<\/em> is still at the dock loading with guns and carriages. There are two or three lighters taking in cannon balls and gun carriages. As soon as the J. N. Genin<\/em> is ready for sea her place will be taken by others.<\/span><\/div>\n
No orders for the disposition of the troops that arrived yesterday from Texas, had been received by Lieutenant Woods up to a late hour yesterday afternoon, and the troops are still on the vessel.<\/span><\/div>\n
There is one very noticeable feature on the Island during the past week, and that is the increase in the number of visiters. The little boat that runs between the island and the Battery has been kept very busy. Many of these persons are drawn there merely from curiosity, others of course go to see friends and relatives. Yesterday there was quite a number on the island.
\nTHE RECRUITING OFFICES are still receiving applications for enlistment in the army and navy. At the office in Chatham street seven men were yesterday received, and the other offices are doing a proportionate business.<\/span><\/div>\n
