Had enough of Soldiering.

Cairo, July 9.
--Saturday and Sunday were occupied in taking the votes of the Regiments as to whether they will enlist for three years or not. Cook's Regiment voted forty in favor of the three years enlistment; McArthur's Regiment voted fifty in favor, and Oglesby's Regiment voted one hundred and fifty in favor of three years. The other portions of these Regiments voted in favor of disbanding. The other Regiments will show a similar unsatisfactory result. The troops have not yet received any pay.
