THE CONTRARANDs.

WASHINGTON, March 25.-rhe commission
appointed by Gen Wool to enquire into the
condition OF Migrants or cUntIa6ands, say in
their official report, that they started with the
general proposition, that the military power

highest duties, to avail itself of any and all
means within its control, to perfect its disci
pine, render its petition secure, or make it
effective for an advance against an enemy ;
and for these ends, it has the right TO compel
service or use, from anything animate or imam
innate, which Il military necessity may de-
mand. AT the same time, they consider that
necessity is the only proper measure of the
extent TO which such power can be exercised
