RgW We are informed that many of tie
men who were drafted in this county have
not yet reported themselves to the proper
officer. Much curiosity is evinced to
know the penalties under State and Ma
tional laws for refusing to serve when
drafted The draft is enforced under an
act of Congress of July II, 1862, which
provides among other things, that "he
President Is authorized to make aHneces-
sa5y rules and regulations i'll cases where
State laws are defectlve as to the enrol
ment or execution of the draft. An act
of assembly of Pennsylvania, passed in
1922, (65 section, April 2d,) provides as
follows -
each and every private of the
militia who shall have neglected or refused to
serve when called into active service in pur-
suance os an order or requisition of the Pres
ilent of the United States, shall be liable to
the penalties defined in the act of Congress of
February 28th, 1895, or any other acts that
may thereafter be passed.
On reference to the act of Congress re-
ferred to, it will be found to embrace the
following points,
"Eyery officer, non commissioned officer, or
private of the militia, who shall fail to obey
the orders of the President of the United
States x = shall forfeit sum not ex-
ceeding one years pay, and not less than one
months pay, to be determined and adjudged
by court-martial K and such non
commissioned officers and privates shall be
liable to be imprisoned by like sentence, on
failure of payment of the fines adjudged
against them, for one calender month for ey-
cry FIVE dollars of such fne."
1t has been decided by the Supreme
Court of this State that those who disobey
the requisition are not employed in the
service SO as to be liable to the articles
of war, but that they are liable to be
tried by court. martial, under the above
act. Such oourt-martial must be consti-
tuted under the authority Of the United
States.

PREVIOUS TO TIE SURRENDER.

New MADRID, April Neither the Caron-
delet nor the PIttsburg was struck by a shot
in running the blockade. Yesterday the for
mer, accompanied by Gen. Granger, Col.
Smith, and Capt. Marshall, made a recon.
noissance by order OF Gen Pope, to Upton
vile, the object being to draw the fire frcm
the masked batteries of the enemy A large
number of batteries were discovered at or near
points where torops could land, and there was
a continuous fire of heavy guns all day. The
Carondelet attacked one battery on the way
up the river, and Capt. Marshall, aid to Gen.
Pope, with some soldiers of the twenty
Illinois regiment, landed, spiked the guns,
broke the carriages, aud threw the rebel am
muntion into the river.
This morning the gumboats Carondeet and
Pittshurg proceeded by order to the point Sc
lected by Gen. Pope for his forces to land and
in two hours three batteries were senced and
the guns spiked AT eleven O'Clock the first
division of four regiments of infantry and one
battery of artillery, commanded by Gen.
Paine, crossed tie river, followed by Gen.
Stanley division under Gen. Granger The
whole operation of crossing the river in the
face of the enemy was a magnificent specta'
Gle, and reflects great credit upon Gen. Pope,
whose energy and skill have been severely
tested but lie has triumphed.
