known why, in the language Of our New

such extraordinary alacrity in stripping
lie city Of its mili.ia just before the riots
came on; why those riots did not break
out, as was at first intended, on the Fourth
Of July; why Vice President Stephens un-

Seymour called his 'noble-hearted friends,
checrcd for JEFF. Davis as well as for his

The above 1s tclegraphic dispatch from
Washington. The information it gives is
not complete. We desire to know when
the f402 are to be paid to the "Veteran
Volunteers" In previous Order it was
stated that the bounty would be paid in
triAing driblets Of $50, each six or eight
Notwithstanding through the whole term
Of enlistment. If Order No. 21o makes the
same provision, then we predict 1t will
prove miserable failure. To obtain men
in any considerable number, 1910 must be
paid cash down, viz: the $500 exemption
fund and the $40, heretofore paid in nd
rance. 4 sum Of money like this offered
In hand TO the recruit may have some in
fuence In procuring the re-en1istment OF
discharged soldiers, but It 1t be paid in H.
significant insta1ments Of $50, during
several years, The bounty loses It's value in
their eyes, and there will be few to enlist
on those terms. And why should not the
Government pay the whole cash bounty
downr There is no other use for it. The
law Clearly contemplates that The con-
scripts exemption money shall be paid to
