TmE DRArT.-In the First, Second, Third.
Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Wards.
there were altogether about 900 applications made
for exemption from military responsibility yesterday,
and nearly 800 names were erased from the books in
the hands Of the Commissioners.
The Sixth Ward has already sent nearly 5000
men TO the war. There are now on the enrolment
books Of that ward more than 1900 names, and yet
ies. than 100 per day. Surely this speaks well for
the patriotism OF tho Sixth Ward.
Every applicant at the Eighth Ward Station, thus
far, has procUred the exemption for which he asked
The applics iona for exemption in the Tenth,
Eleventh, Twelfth, Thirteenth, and Fourteenth
dave. Tho majority of the applicants based their
plea on the ground Of being sliens.
In the upper wards Of tie city the crowd OF app'i.
caus isson the increase. About three hundredappled
for ption in the Eighteenth Ward, nearly one
fourth of whom were found ~ be pretended Dvdlds.
Several Irishmen claimed exemption on the ground
of alicushIp who were well known 10 the police "a
,nthnsia,tic Democratic voters In the Nineteenth
Ward there were about one hundred applicants. A
large ihare of the applicants were aliens. There
were great many aliens In attendance at the Twen'
tieih Ward StaiiOn- House. More business was yes
,rrday accomplished there than on both previous
dsys.neaily three hundred applicants having been
received The applicants were of the ordinary class
Of people. In the Twen'y-nrst Ward the visitors
were mainly wello-do. citizens, claiming exemption
on the ground of old age or physical disability.
Among the two hundred applicants were very few
aliens. Over two hundred anxious non.combstants
appeared at the Twenty -second Ward Station-House
aioot one half Of whom went through a medica al
examination TIE greater portion OF thee were III
rrm UT disabled citizens. Very few claims were
ba.ed upon the occupations Of the applicants. -.

Chambers Information.

SENsBLE.-Thc members of Congress from the
Border States and Democrats arc not the only
ones who see the folly and wickedness and dan
ger of Lincoln's emancipation policy. Critten-
den and Wicklifc have denounced it, and depre-
Gated its being sanctioned by the dominant party
The following extract from a recent speech of Mr..
Dunn, a Republican member of Congress from
Indiana, is commended to his party in this State:
81 tell you that if the general emancipation of
slaves is to be our policy, our Union is forever
gone and there is no redemption for it. We might
still have Union of the free States-a great and
powerful unon-a union which would in time
throw its shadow over any other confederacy on
this continent; but as to restoring the union rs it
was two years ago, it is impossible if we make
this a war upon slavery. With four millions in
bondage, with all the value of that property, as
it is called, interviewer with every other interest
in the South, and forming the support alike of old
age, middle age, widowhood and orphan child
hood the attempt to blot it out of existence by
fierce foray on the part of the government. is as
wild and chimerical scheme as ever entered the
brain Of madman.'
The Placer herald., 1862-05-10

tit and convenience the government was
made-they, in the language Of the Consti
tuition, "reserving to themselves the powers
not delegated" Mr.. Lincoln however, in
his inaugural says the States never we're sove-
reign! The absurdty, the utter falsity Of
this is apparent to every man who will troub
e himself to think for moment. If the
States "never were" sovereign, from what
source does the Government derive its sove
reignty? for they were makers of it. The
Indifference and tameness with which the
people submit to the overshadowing usurps.
tions Of the government amounting to a to-
tai disregard Of the principles on which it
was founded, is one Of the most fearful
omens Of the war, which bodies no good to
the liberties Of the people. History informs
us that the enlargement of the of the gov
eminent and the tame submission of the
people, has always proven the rock on which
cites them by name, severally, commencing
with New Hampshire. and declares them to
be Stree and Independent States" In the
Convention which framed the Constitution,
every thing was done by States-not a single
cote was given by popular acclamation-and
in the ratification Of the Constitution, it was
left to the mere option Of the States to enter
the Confederacy or not. Some of them re-
fused for three years to ratify the Consttu
ton, during which time they were wholly
disconnected from the new government As
additional proofsif it were wanted, that sove'
reignty does not reside either in the govern
meut created or the people as one mass, the
issue was twice made in the Convention
which framed the Constitution, to give the
government power TO coerce State, and
the proposition was both times rejected.
This is conclusive and final, and will not adj
init of another word.
Where then does the sovereign power
reside? Evidently, ndisputable IN THE PEo-
PIE OF THE SEVERAL STATES, who are the
parties to the compact, and for whose bene
their liberties were wrecked. If we should
escape a like catastrophe, our people must
awake from the ethargy into which they
have fallen-repudiate the vile demagogues,
who, have blinded them to their vilianies by
the hypocritical cry Of the "Union," to do
their own thinking. No man can be good
citizen unless he acquauts himself with the
nature and powers of the government under
which he lives, nor an honest one unless he
faithfully discharges the duties which our
republican system imposes upon him.

MURDER AND SUICIDE IN Ell DORADO
CouNrY.-A horrible case of murder and
suicide occurred on the night of April 2sth
at Hanks Exchange, a way side tavern five
miles east from Diamond Springs, on the
Carson road Joseph Parmeter, proprietor
of the house, and his wife were both found
dead next morning in their rooms. The
wounds and the position of the parties lead
to the belief that the husband killed the
wife while she was asleep, with pistol shot
in the top Of the head, and afterwards blew
his own brains out. Their acquaintances
say that they had not lived happily together
for some time, the wife having refused to share
the bed Of ber husband, she making bed
on The Aoor, and on the night Of the murder
they occupied separate roodas adjoining.
The Placer herald., 1862-05-10

Houses IN SPEcrAoLEs.-High stepping
carriage horses are now scarce, greatly pri-
zed in London, and the world wonders why
they are not more to be met with. This is
simply an affair of training. In the nortl
of Germany, whence these horses are chiefly
imported, you may frequently meet the ami
mails exercising on the hghroads caparison
ed like the knights charger of old, with heavy
clothing, wearing no blinkers but large spec
taces. These spectacIes are strong magni-
fers, and pebble, to the eyes of the delud-
ed quadruped, appears as granite boulder;
so in his youth and ignorance he lifts up his
legs high into the air to avoid their contact,
and thus contracts that habit ofhigh stepping
so much admired, and for which amateurs
pay unheard of prices.

Nm IN WITH you."-A jolly old sport Of
our acquaintance, who resides in the neigh
borhood of Washington Square and has a
minister of the gospel for a next door neigh
Dor, was awakened by noise at the lower
door of his house few nights ago, and eau
tiously raising the parlor window, espied a
burglar at work in the basement yard below
Look here, my worthy friend," says old
Bob, "you've made mistake in the number
