After the disasters at Vienna ant. Great Beth

authorities would learn wisdom from expert

sious blunders. But the same rasbness and in

the grand army at Manassas, that throws oil
former reverses of the campaign into the shade,

Drafting Soldiers.


The New York papers are beginning to
discuss the necessity and expediency of
resorting to drafting to procure the re-
quisite number of soldiers. Enlistments
are very tardy in the Eastern States, and
some of the Western, for that matter
Several weeks ago the Governor of New
York called for %, 600 volunteers. But up
to this time not half that number have
signed enlistment rolls. The New Eng
land States are all tardy. None OF them
are furnishing half that are needed and
expected. Pennsylvania is not doing her
duty By any means, and Ohio is tagging
behind, and has not half the troops in the
field that she should have.
The same thing is true of Michigan,
| Wisconsin, and Minnesota. Illinois is
raising more troops than any other State
more than even New York or Pennsyl-
vania-but it Is doubtful whether she will
heve her full quota in the field by October
first, at which time the half million called
for by Congress early in July last, should
| be under arms. 4.
The Rebels resortel to drafting long
ago, [what whopper and thereby have
been able to put in the field larger army
than the Government. Why should our
side refrain from drafting, when it is
found that volunteering will not supply
men fast enough? No loyal man, ifdralt'
ed, will refuse to serve or find n substi
tute. We have quarter of million OF
troops in camp and should have half a
million. Let there be no hesitation on
the part of the Government to call on eacl
State for its full quota Of soldiers. Lei
the President designate the number each
State must furnish, and if they are Iio
forthcoming one way they will another

The Blockade Breaker. &c.


We clip the following from letter to
the Mobile Advertiser and Register dated
New Orleans, Sept. 10:
went over to Algiers yesterday to see
the steamer Manassas" commonly called
the TURTLE or "the RAM" intended to
"pitch into" DIR. Lincoln's blocladinp
fleet. The commander of that fleet sent
up Il challenge q month ago to her "to
come along" rs he was ready for her. Nv
belief is when she ''comes along" the
heaviest frigate in that fleet will have to
get out of her way or somebody twill be
| hurt" She is a dangerous looking craft
solid mass of wood covered with railroad
iron, and her whole covering arranged in
curve lines from which the heaviest shot
must glance. She has nine.ineh gun in
her bow, and the port hole is closed by
snout-like looking shutter, which, when
down, completes the parabolic curve of
her conformation. Her engines are pow
erlul, and with only nine inches of steam
(she carries 30) made eight knots in an
experimental TIP yesterday. If one of
Lincoln's ships waits for her, and depends
upon her guns to drive her off, she will
sink the ship by driving hole in her
through which Il horse might be ridden.
II the ship runs, the turtles" single gun
can play upon and sink her, and he her.
self (bow on) invulnerable to shot. And
if the fleet does rot dare stand the shoot
ing or the buttlng, it will have to clear
out and the blockade is broken up. Since
her trial trip yesterday the turtle" has
risen greatly in the estimation of the naval
officers. There is danger in her. found
several hundred carpenters, engineers and
boiler-makers at work at Algiers. Several
gun-boats are under construction, and
other old steamers are being converted
into gunboats. Two of the floating docks
| are being cut down for floating batteries
They will mount very heavy ornaments
and he towed up or down the river wher-
ever their services may be needed.
