Thf. Most Patriotic Act Yet.—We saw yesterday, says the Columbus (CJa.) Enquirer of the 29th, a gentleman from Chambers county, Ala., who came to this city to purchase trimmings for a uniform for a whole company of his county. He cut thewool from the backs of his own sheep, had the yarn spun and cloth wove at his own house, and sold cotton in this city a£ 7 cents to purchase the trimmings. He will thus uniform the whole company, the “Osnup-pa Hangers. ' by his own labor and money, and he dees it nil gratuitously. He is moreover a member of the company, and Ire has 22 nephews in the Confederate service in Virginia. The Osanuppa Rangers, Capt. lieu- JIugulcy, were raised in Chambers county, Ala., mostly in the Sth District, and will form a part of the regiment of Col. W. F. Wright, of Newuan, 6a. We would give ihe name of this liberal and patrioticgentleman, but we are satisfied, from hisuiodcst bearing, that he would dislike such publicity. r
