upon a very happy expedient for relieving

almost every county there are instances where

volunteers for the war, and where the only re-
manning member capable of bearing arms h;ss
e, drafted. There are ollser cases OF poor
men with large families who are unable TO
procure 4 subs titu;e, and who cannot 60 with
out leaNing their wives and children de-
pCEoeDt, IN measure, upon public charity.
The Governor proposes 10 remedy this by ap-
