To COL. WM. WILSON: Noticing your communication in this morning's TIMES, proposing the service of 2,000 men -- if necessary clothing and equipments are provided for them by the public -- and naming amongst other articles required "gray shirts," we hereby offer for your acceptance, on behalf of the Enfield Manufacturing Company and ourselves, 1,000 heavy gray shirts, which we trust may answer the purpose required and be accepted as a proof of our interest in the good cause you propose to serve, and we remain your obedient servants.

I beg leave to offer through the columns of your valuable paper, to the Commandants of a Brigade of the Volunteers of the City of New York, all such cap trimmings as I manufacture, consisting of military fronts, straps, swells and buttons, to the number of five thousand sets, for 5,000 men, free of charge, as a small contribution to sustain our Star-Spangled Banner.
Yours, very respectfully,

To the Editor of the New-York Times:
As many absurd and unfounded statements are going the rounds of the public Press with reference to the business of this Company, I beg leave to submit a copy of a letter received at this Agency from the President of the Company, on the 18th January last, and would state that the instructions therein contained have been strictly complied with.
I am, Sir, yours very truly,
WM. B. HARTLEY,
Sect'y Colt's Arms Co.
HARTFORD, Jan. 17, 1861.
DEAR SIR: I have your letter with inclosure, relating to the troubles in South Carolina, and agree with you as to the impropriety of making any contracts to supply that State with arms. I therefore hasten to instruct you not to sell to them or any other State which you know to be in open hostility to the Federal Government. Yours truly,
SAM. COLT, President.
