The siege OF Fort Sumter has been such a.
to prove that General Gilmore is the greatest
engineer oficer yet developed in this war.
That reputation has heretofore been pretty
generally assigned to Beauregard. But tho
little creole has found more than his match in
the man who commands the forces now ope-
rating against Charleston. Beauregard got his
great credit FOR engineering ability by his sue.
cess in capturing Fort Sumter in April, 1861.
But under what circumstances? He had from
three to four months of preparation, when he
was permitted through the treachcry Of Floyd
and the imbecility Of Buchanan, to build his
batteries without opposition or interruption
within easy range of Sumter. On all sides OF
the doomed fortress, and at every point where
guns could be brought to bear upon Il, works
were erected, and even an iron floating bat
terry, from which great things were expected,
was permitted to be built and launched. And
after all II was only the want Of provisions
that made Major Anderson and the little garri-
son of seventy-one men surrender the fort,
when II was opened on by three hundred guns,
with supporting force Of seven thousand men.
Contrast this easy conquest with the work
which General Gilmore has accomplished, and
II will be seen how immeasurably greater are
his claims to distinction as great military en-.
gineer.
lie has had with force numerically inferior
TO that which garrisons Charleston, TO make
his way up, slowly and surely, against all op.
position and obstacles, to a point within
preaching distance Of Fort Sumter; and that
great defensive work Of granite is probably by
this time pounded into dust over the heads OF its
defenders; and this in spite Of all the boast

EXEMPTION ORpNANoEs- DOUBLE ACTION OF
THE SUPERVISORS AND COxMos COUNCIL The
Aldermen and Councilmen met yesterday in
general committee to consult in regard to the
course to be taken In references to exempting
persons drafted. Alderman Froment presided.
A committee to report rules and regulations
was appointed, and its report, subsequently pre-
sented, yAs adopted. II provides that the OH
GERS Of this general committee, which is to be .
sort Of permanent bedy, shall consist Of chair
man, secretary and treasurer, and that the oom-
mittee shall hold daily sessions, commencing on
Monday next, at two o'clock P. NJ. It's members
.h.u ~ ~-h-cnrs rnstsAA In tho vra~ds IN
which they reside, and shall be at liberty to
employ clerks and messengers. They are to
hear and decide upon applications to pay for
the exemption Of drafted men who shall first
have applied for exemption to the enrolling
board and been refused. When the drafted
man elects to serve, the three hundred
dollars shall not be paid until he
is actually mustered into service; when
he elects not to serve, the money is to be
paid in such way as to secure its subsequent
payment to the proper officer Of the United
States for the purpose of procuring substitute
Lastly, the Mayor, Comptroller and Presidents OF
the two Boards are to be subcommittee, with
power to establish one or more recruiting
Offices for the purpose of procuring volunteers
to serve as substitutes for drafted persons.
The Board Of Supervisors have taken action
which will render the ordinance Of the Common
Council unnecessary. They have, on consulta-
tion with the Mayor and Comptroller, adopted
an ordinance to pay the exemption of such
militia men, police members Of the Fire Depart
ment, active and exempt and poor citizens
with families dependent upon them, as may be
drafted.
II provides for the appointment Of commit
tee to whom drafted men shall make applica.
tion, and such ar come under either Of the fore.
going designations militia, police, fremen and
poor men with families-wil receive certiti-
cate to be presented TO the Comptroller, who
will thereupon pay 10 the proper officers Of the
government the exemption fec Of such person.
There can be no objection to this ordinance.
Under il the Young loafers and vagabonds who
swarm the city will not be bought up by our
taxpayers to prevent them rendering military
service, and at the same time poor men will
not be torn from their helplcss families and sent
to the war; Neither can the Immense frauds
which every one fully expected to witness
under the system invented BY the Ccmmou
Council be perpetrated. The Comptroller has
proved himself to be an honest, upright, relia.
bic Official, and there need be no fear of fraudu.
lent use of the public funds entrusted to bis
hands. We presume the Boards of Aldermen
and Councilmen will submit with as good
grace NJ possible to this new plan, and let their
own ordinance, vetoed by the Mayor. 60 by de.
