The T. s. CONSUMPTION bill divides citizens
liable TO draft into two classes. One comprises
men between the ages Of twenty and thirty
five, married, or unmarried, and all unmarried
men between the ages OF thlrty-hve and forty
five. The second class includes married men
between the last named ages. 1t turns out,
according to the enrolment in New York city,
that the proportion Of the first class 10 the
second is nearly SIS four to one. There is no
reason why the same ratio should not hold good
throughout the country generally. As the
second class is not to be drawn upon until the
first class is put into service, it appears that
the Benediots between thirty-ive and forty
i've stand but little chance Of the draft tor the
present.
