The New Call For Troops.

Our government, it will be seen by an
article in another column, has called for
three hundred thousand more men. These
are to be drafted, and are to serve nine
months, with only the pay of regular SOL
diers. 1t will be seen too that after the
18th inst, no bounties are to be paid, and
if our quota of the previous call for three
hundred thousand volunteers is not filled
by that time, the deficiency will be made
up by drafting.
We are glad the government has taken
this course, for we need men Immediately,
to fill up the ranks of the armies already
in the field, and this will be sure and
quick way to get them. Some have init
mated that this mode of obtaining men
would create difficulty, but we cannot be-
ilicve there can be any considerable num-
Der in any community, in this free coun-
ty, who are not willing to do their duty
lin the defense of the government. Any
one can see that men are needed, and that
some must 60, but many are waiting to
see that there is a necessity for them to
60, and say that when convinced of such
necessity, they are ready. This method
will reach such individuals, and in most
cases will find just as patriotic soldiers
as any volunteers, and in many instances
will obtain abled bodied men who would
never volunteer This method comes right
home to individuals and tells them it is
their duty to go, and if they cannot find
a substitute they are compelled to believe
it. All able bodied men of proper age
liable, SO that there can be no Sinking.

Only Seven DAYS More.

Now is the time to come forward and
get the bounty offered for volunteers.
"Spunky Lamoille" should fill up her
quota without drafting. All able-bodied
men between Is and As are liable. Come
forward, then, and get your bounty, while
you can, and not wait till forced to 90, at
thirteen dollars per month. Twenty five
more men are wanted for the company
now being raised. Other counties have
raised full companies, and they are already
organized and ready to 60 into camp.
Will "Spunky Lamoille" allow herself to
be behind her sisters? She is behind
several, and we don't know but all the
Others, in filling up this company. This
will not do! Como forward, then Let

better than to write one, hoping that 1T
may prove true.
Your readers doubtless have all heard
of the celebrated female spy "Bello Boyd"
who has taken SO prominent part in the
present rebellion. Report says that she
has been operating successfully about al
most the whole length of our line They
got word that she was at Gordonville, and
o detective went there. From there he
went to Front Royal and actually captur-
cd and brought to this camp a woman
who answered nearly to the description of
Belle Boyd" and calls herself by that
name,
She is not as as good looking as some
have represented her to be, although she
would pass for fair damsel. The age
of Belle has been reported at nineteen,
but if we have the genuine Belle here, she
is at least six years older, unless much
care worn. Two revolvers were take from
her and large number of letters for peo-
pie in the South. She came into camp in
covered carriage, driven by darkey
who says he "reckons it mus be Belle,
sure" She was escorted by squad Of
cavalry She is very bold faced and is
not daunted easily. She is ready to talk
with any of the officers, especially if she
can get chance to blow upon the bloody
Yankees. She declared she would not
stay on the hill here last nj ght with so
many men, but she found that she could
not get away, and submitted as quietly as
her nature would allow. We were called
out by the " long rolf at 3 II o'clock
this morning, and stood until daylight.
There was considerable firing on the pick
ct line, but what caused it we have not
ascertained.
The boys work every day on the forti-
ficatiors, and will get what arc commenced
finished up nearly this week. There has
not been drill of any kind since we
came here, not even Dress Parade.
The citizens of this place arc in rather
tight quarters. The picket line extends
just outside the village, and no one can

allegiance. They cannot even put let

Drafting and Calling Out 800 900 Militia.

There has been much doubt whether
the President had any authority to order
q draft, except under the act empowering
him to call out the militia for nine months,
but he has settled this doubt by ordering
the 100000 men called for on the lst of
July to be drafted by the 18th inst, un-
less sooner enlisted. 1t is unquestionably
true that, Notwithstanding the State,
City, Town and private bounties offered
all over the country for the 100000 three
years men, called for by the President on
the lst of July, not more than one-half of
that 800, 900 are yet enrolled. But the
Government has seen that it is impossible
to wait for this slow method of filling up
the army, especially when the rebels are
crowding every man into the ranks by
their sweeping conscriptions, and has at
last officially announced its purpose of
nlllnS up the ranks at once.
The following is the order:
Ordered, First that draft of 100000
militia be Immediately called into the
service of the United States, to serve nine
months unless sooner discharged. The
Secretary of War will assign their quotas
to the States, and establish regulations
for the draft
Second, that if any State do not by
the 10th of August, furnish its quota of
the additional 100000 volunteers author
lied by law, the deficiency of volunteers
in that State, will also be made up by
the special draft from the militia.
Third, Regulations will be prepared by
the War Department and presented to the
President with the object of securing the
promotion of officers of the army and vol
unteers for meritorious and distinguish
ed conduct, and of preventing the nom
nation and appointment to the military
service of incompetent or unworthy Off
GERS.
The regulations will also provide for
Kidding the service of such incompetent
persons as now hold commissions
BY order of the President.
Il. M. STANTON, Sec. of War.
The Adjutant General WILL of course,
cause each county and town to be at once
informed of the quota required of it.
Whether those already sent from the va
rious, towns, of three years men, will be
credited to each town, and the surplus if
ny,be deducted from their quota of mill
tia, and draft only be made beyond
that, is not yet known. We think that
equal and exact justice would dictate this
course as those towns that have already
sent the fewest men, relatively, should be
brought up to the mark by this compul-
sory style of recruiting. Vermont has
done we'll thus far, and we regret that we
cannot hope that she will gil up her no.
ia without compulsion. But the army
must be filed, and if one means fails an
other must be resorted to. The govern
ment is evidently now on the right track
if it desires to fill up the army soon, and
we shall see by the LIST of September an
army of from 100000 to 100000 mer
in the field. With that force we trust
our Generals will make short work il
suppressing treason. Freeman.
