PLENTY Of SUGAR AND CoTroN.
The New Orleans correspondent Of
the Times, writes that there is great
plenty Of the staples OF the South in
the hands OF The planters. Louisi
ana has plenty of cotton and sugar
ready on any favorable time to
bring them to market. Nothing
has been more exaggerated than
that these staple products have been
to any great extent destroyed. The
Southern planter has sworn harder
than Jeptha; he has, in pursuance
of that oath. sacrificed his home, bis
wife, his children, his country, bu,
he never has. in his maddest mo
ments, laid murderous hands upon
bis household god--co,ton. Thal
wonld, indeed, be too proiane.

GREEN MOUNTAIN FREEMAN, AUG. II, 1862.
Drafting and Calling Out 100000 Militia

UraItlnR ana Ealing oul oVo,Vou mlAllla'
There has been much doubt whether the
President had any authority to order draft,
except under the act empowering him to call out
the militia for nine months, but he has settled
this doubt by ordering the 800 600 men called
for on the LIST Of july to be drafted by the 10th
inst. unless sooner enlisted. 1t is unquestona-
BY true that notwithstanding the State, City,
Town ard private bounties offered all over the
country for the 900, 600 three years men, called
FOL- by the President on the lst Of July, not
more than oue-haIt Of that 100000 arc yet
enrolled. But The Government has seen that
il is impossible 70 wait for this sow method Of
filing up the army, especially when the rebels
are orowdiug every man lat1 the ranks by they
sweeping a0nscriplIons, and uas atlast officially
announced its purpose Of filling up the ranks
at once.
The following il tie order
O3ged First that a draftof 100000 militia
be Immediately called into the service Of the
United States, to serve nine months unless soon
er discharged. The Secretary Of War viii as
sign their quotas to the States and establish
regulations for the draft
Second that il any State do not by the 9th
of August, furnish its quota Of the additional
100000 volunteers authorized by law, the de-
ieiency OF volunteers in that State, Will also be
made i D by the special draft from the militia
Third, Regulations will be prepared by the
War De partment and presented to the Pres
den, with tho object Of securing the promotion
of officers of the army and volunteers for merto
rious aud distinguished conduct, aud OF prevent
ing the nomination and appointment to the mil
| itary service OF incompetent or unworthy 9TH
! cere.
The regulations will also provide for Kidding
the service OF such incompetent persons as nov
hold COMMISSIONS.
BY order OF the President.
f. NJ STANTON, Sec. Of War
The Adiutant General will, Of course, caus
each county and town to be at once informed
Of the quota required Of it. Whether those al
