Council Bluffs bugle. [volume] (Council Bluffs, Iowa) 1860-1868, 1861-10-02

In our adyaxtiseing columns will De
found the order of Adjatans General nA-
Kxa to Boards Of Supervisors 70 prepare
lists of those subject 70 military duty, IN
order that troops may be daEffed knsfe-
fgam. Ii ia possible that enough EoAan-
tears will have been enrolled to meet the
late reouisition of the Governor before
the hist will be needed; If not, they Will
be used.-Eosra State Register.
The above being from the otheial organ
of the Republican party at our State Zap
ital, leaves no doubt ~ to its authority
Yet selegraphie dispatch from Wash
iugson, a few days since, states thai Sec
rotary CAxERoS, IN reply TO an enquiry
nom Kirkwood, by telegraph, whether ne
should resort to drafting og not, answer
ed, ssRo; sos G~asss rsas aposs shs patriot
isas Of tks people" ..s
We plaee little reliance upon any shing
which comes By telegraph, yet 1t Is not
Impossible that this may be true. We
suppose thai we ahall have to take is as
tEue-asnsa after s2ectsog~-ualess the
drafting should sooner commence.
We will, at all events, take it for grant
ed as true, so far as TO appeal to that
patriotism upon which it is said the Sec
rs&ary of war relies. Now Is the time 70
volunteer. Lss nos the character OF our
State suffeE by permitting IL to Do said
thai, Ia the very commencement Of q war
which promises to be . long and bloody
one. the authorities have bean compelled
10 resort to drafting, in order to furnish
the troops called for BY the Federal Gov
eminent. The Governor and the Adlutan1
General have both appealed TO the Pasrl'
osism of the people In stirring terms, SET
ting forth that cur brothers, sons anc
nssxhAors mpon the tented field need az
ii more men for the w&x. Now u tn
time to chow your patriotism IN deeds
not in words-in soEnthing more subslan
tial than bosstful breath and taansint
words and bitter iuvection against thos'
who chance to differ with you In pelitiea
opinion. Now Is the time for those VIII
have 80 loudly Wanted their OWN PasFi
onism, denouncing their neighbors q
traitors, 10, to come forward and shoN
at least q spark Of that virtue in them
selves, by responding to their country
call to arms. In this city and vicinity
and throughout the State, there are hun
dresis and thousands of sable bodied men
who can show no just claim to exemption
who neither par more tax nor eonTi0qt
more in any way, than their neighboFs
20 support the war-who present no 81
pexior virtue whatever, undiess IL 3
q virtue 10 snap an snaTl and max
day and night hideous with their howiin
yet never think Of offering their service
to the Government; oh no, they, forsoott
are TO good to expose their precious live
10 danger If they have spark Of tru
patriotism in their hearts or any "ssn
in their gizzards," now is the time
show it! Let Us have more volunteer
without respect TO party--and less tail
We would not discourage any class
citizens from volunteering-mueh LEI
make any fuyidious distinction betWee
those of different politics, to the dispa'
agemeat Of any who have volunteered II
the war but 1t is nothing more than sin
pie justice, TO say that, thus far, q mus
larger number Of Democrats, than Of X
psblicans, have volunteered from th
State L T. time that the loud salkin
sslf-righssous gentlemen aforesaid shou
sswalk ap to the ball ring"
That patriotism which consists In hres
alone, is at least spurious article
base counterfeit. That species Of $50
alty'' which 'Fvsunseth itself" In stiEril
up strife and endangsEing the peace Al
safety of society at home, may well 81
ject its possessor 10 suspicion, in t
xainds Of all true patriots and good ci'
