Rusv--The Board Of Exemption was kept
busily engaged on yesterday, attending to the
appeals Of parties desiring to TO relieved from
militia service, which, just at this particular
time, means the duty which every man owes
to the State to contribute his might to repel
the vandat hordes who now seek our destrue-
ton. A number were excused and some re-
iected. We never saw SO many ailments
spring into existence in such short time in our
whole life. Sundry men, who have heretofore
been regarded az rivals Of Jackson, the Amer.
