Lincoln has shrunk from encountering his subiects-
Arbitrary and bold he is il other things be has
feared to deny dismissal to soldiers whose terms of
vice have expired, to refuse conscrpts the right OF
purchasing exemption from the operation of the draft
The conscrlphon law passed by the Lincoln Congress
provides that citizen between certain ages shall re-
spond to call upon him for military service uness er
enpted theretrom by the payment an assessment to
be liked by the Secretary OF War to exceed three
hundred dollars A few weeks ago it was c.early init
mated that Secretary Stanton would decide that the
option of paying the assessment or rendering the re-
qulred service, was with him, aBd with the drafted
cat1zen. The feeGer was thrown out through the Re
publican papers, and the response of the people has
been received.
This response is such as TO have intinidated the
powers at Washington. The "rick of interpretation
by which the law was 10 be annuiled" has been
hercey and violently denounced The partisans of the
Administration have sent back word thai the exper-
