Our siege guns were close np to tie enemys works within a hundred yards. the statement is. The rebels, on the lst inst, are said to have shot three hundred horses on the river bank, being unable to feed them. It is reported that the dispatches from Pember- ton to Johnston, captured few days ago. were to the effect that their forage was all gone--that the men were on quarter rations-- that the ammunition was nearly exhausted, and that they could hold out but ten days.

The $500 Exemption.

Let no one be deceived in regard to the
$500 exemption. The certificates given
Ply the Provost Marshal at Grand Rap
ids, to those paying $500, read exempt
ed for the present draft" Though acircu-
lar has been widely circulated in the pa
pers, over the signature Of Provost Mar
shall General Fry, that those paying the
exemption fee of $500 are exempt from
military service for three years or during
the war, Provost Marshall Baily has told
conscripts that he has received no instruc-
tons from headquarters to that effect, and
gives certificates under these circumstan-
ces only for the present draft. Let no one
therefore be deceived in the matter, but
inquire into it thoroughly before making
the investment. The safer way is to 90
or furnish substitute.

The Volunteer Loan.

By reference TO our advertising col
umns it will be seen that the Treasurer
of our County is DESTROYS to loan funds
to pay the bounty Of $50 to volunteers.
Let each town come forward at once and
take at least suficiency of the loan to
clear itself from the draft. In another
column will be found the quota of men
assigned to each town, and as matter
of course if the County cannot effect a
loan at home for that purpose it must go
abroad to do so. But let it all be done
within ourselves, each town bearing its
share of the burden.
