To prevent the necessity of draft, we under
stand that citizens from the 9TH Con yressional
District, deputed for that purpose offered to raise
two regiments of volunteers in as short time as
1t could be done by drafting. but the Governor
refused to entertain the proposition. His obec-
tons. we believe, were that drafting had been
determined upon, and he anxious that a
certain class should be compelled to shoulder the
musket who could not be reached by any other
method. A similar proposition made from
the 9th District which was also rejected for like
reasons. We presume the Governor is DESTROYS

In the last speech of DOUGLAS, delivered in
the Wigwam at Chicago. he gave utterance to
the following sentiments. The men who are now
traYersng the country, appropriating the memory
of his great name and influence to advance their
selfish purposes, and whom he would have spurn-
ed from him If he had lived, are careful to avoid
all reference to the objects which he said should
animate the Government and people in the pros
ecution of the war, and the manner in which it
should he conducted. DOUGLAS thus illustrated
his patriotism and his humanity:
War does exist Ii is sad thought to every
patriot War-ciyi war-must be recognized as
existing in the United States. We may no longer
close our eyes To that solemn fact. This Gov
ernment must be maintained, the enemies OF the
country ovefthrown. and the more stupendous
and overw heming our preparations, the less
bloodshed and the shorter the struggle.
But. my countrymen, We must remember that
there certain restraints upon mens actions In
time of war. We must never forget that We are
a civilized and Christian people, aud that the war
must be prosecuted Tor the purposes and IN the
mode recognized by Christian nations. There
must not be waged against the constitu-
tional rights of any people on earth. nor must it
be vaged against women and children and limo
cent persons. Savages must not be let loose, nor
the horrors of indiscriminate destruction encour-
aged. I say to you. l will never santion such
acts of warfare upon the rights of others, but
will beseech and implore nv countrymen never
to Iay down their arms until they recognize our
constitutional rights.
