The bill introduced by Senator Wilson for
enrolling all persons liable to draft will soon
become law. It enacts that every able
bodied male citizen of the United States, be-
tween eighteen and forty five, shall constitute
. part of the national forces, and shall be liza
BILE to perform military service when called on
by the President. It exempts, in addition to
ordinary exempts, those who are the sole sup
port of infirm, aged or helpless, only brother
of young orphan children, and like cases, as
under the French CONSUMPTION law. 1t d.
vides the national forces not now in the SER
vice into two classes, viz:
First. Those between eighteen and thirty,
and the unmarried above that age.
Second. All others. The second class not
to be called into service till the first is ex-
hausted.
This is good move. The rebellion should
be put down speedily, and in order to do so
the President must have control Of the entire
military force Of the country.

TEE ILLINOIS SOLDIERS ON THE ToR1Es.-On
January s0th, a meeting Of all the officers of
the Illinois regiments stationed at Corinth,
was held at that Post. Lieut.. Col. Phillips of
the 9th Illinois presided. A long series Of
resolutions were reported and unanimously
adopted by the meeting. The following will
indicate the tone of the whole:
Reso'ced, That we have watched the trail
torous conduct of those members of the Leg
islature Of the State of Illinois, who, misrep-
resenting their constituency, have been pro-
posing cessation of the war, avowedly to
arrange terms of peace, but really to give time
for the exhausted rebels to recover strength,
and renew their plotting to divest Governor
Yates ofthe rights and authority vested in
him by our. State Constitution and laws and
to them we calmly and firmly say: Beware
of the terrible retribution that is falling upon
your coadjutors ct the South, and that. as
your crime is ten-fold blacker, it will swiftly
smite you with ten-fold more horror, should
you persist in your damnable deeds of treason.
The resolutions were afterwards submitted
TO the soldiers Of the several regiments, and
received their hearty endorsement. Do the
Coppeeheads understand /? a..a 81

az Archie, the negro who was hunted
down by the tory hounds in Polk county, was
contraband brought from Arkansas, by the
Secretary of State, Mr.. Wright, who when
he went to Des Moines took Archie with him.
Judge Gray held that he was free negro,
and, therefore, entitled to the rights of citi-
zership that the act of 1851, under which
he was arrested, was in violation of the old,
and particularly the new Constitution, and
that the prisoner was entitled to his immedi-
ate discharge.
The decision was prepared with great care,
and will be found to be N accordance, not on
ly with the plain principles of the common
law, but the explicit fundamental law of this
State. '-'t
