evade conscrption is punished by an imprison-
ment of from one month to one year, whilst
aiding or abetting fugitive from the dreaded
ballot is liable to the same penalty.
The scene which takes place at the drawing
is one of much picturesque animation. Groups
of the finest youths of wide neighborhood,
with generally their fathers and mothers, rela-
tives and friends, are assembled in the spacious
hall of the town-house. The mayors, projects,
and sub-prefects are there to receive them,
with usually several officers quartered in the
district. On every face there is an expression
of hope and fear, anxiety and excitement; and,
as each advances toward the fatal urn and
draws the paper deciding his future destiny,
all the spectators, well as the parties imme-
diately concerned, feel the most lively interest.
Those who draw higher number than the
number of recruits required, are exempt, whilst
those who draw lower number are condemned
| to serve their country as militdireS for the
| space of seven years. Some are exempt
ed These exceptions include all below the
height of five feet five inches all who are
the subject of any physical incapacity the
eldest of orphans the only son, or eldest son,
or grandson of widow, or of father of sew
enty years of age certain classes of students
in the public schools, including all those who
| have carried off the great prizes of the insti-
| tute, or ofthe university. None, however are
exempt from the ballot all must appear and
draw their lots ; and this over such as have
objections to urge, send them in to the council
| otreviSiOn, which is appointed for the purpose.
Were it not for this close examination, many
would evade the common national responsible
ty, and some would intrude themselves into
the service whom the service would otherwise
reject. AS it is, the instances are numerous of
persons who mutilate themselves by chopping
off finger, or who raise sores on their bodies
by piercing their flesh, and drawing strings
through the wound, that they may be reported
by the medical inspectors infrm, and unfit for
military life."
