COLUMBUS, October 31, 1864.

Major-General HOOKER:

Telegram from Governor Brough, at Washington, says movement are anticipated from Canada on the northern border. I have ordered Colonel Hayward, Twenty-ninth Regiment National Guard, at Cleveland, and Colonel Phillips, commanding First Regiment National Guard, to hold four companies each in readiness for immediate orders, and to obey your orders or my own for moving. I will also order the battery of National Guard at Camp Dennison to report to you for orders if you desire it. Anything I can do to furnish you with troops will be promptly done.

B. R. COWEN,

Adjutant-General.
