The enrolment of each class is to he made
separately. Persons thus enrolled are liable
to serve three years or during the War and are
to be treated precisely as are the volunteers.
The President is authorized to call upon

The bill provides that the President shall is

to return to their respective regiments within
certain specified time, or be punished when
taken as the law directs.
Certain regu atiOns are laid down for the
government of courts-martial, and the duties
of the Judge Advocate and reporters, &C.,
specified.
1t provides for the punishment of murder,
assault and battery with intent to kill, arson,
perjury, rape and other like crimes, penalties
such as are authorized by the civil law in the
territory where the offence is committed
All officers absent from duty on account of
sickness are to receive half pay. Furloughs
may be granted to fire per cent of the non Com
missioned officers for good conduct in the line
OF duty, not to exceed thirty days.
The President of the United States is au-
thorized and empowered, during the present
rebellion, to call forth the national forces by
draft.
The President may assign all persons draft
ed to such corps, reg ments, or branches as
the exigencies of the service may require.
Persons detailed for special service are not
to receive any extra pay beyond that allowed
to enlisted men.
1t repea!s the One Hundred and Fifty fonrth
and the One Hundred and Sixty-second Gen
eral Orders of the War Department.
The concluding section of this bill provides
for the compensation of certain officers and
others connected with the army.
We have thus given the substance of this bill
thing like justice to it. We believe it will be
found to be a pretty accurate condensation of
the bill, embracing all of its principal features

THEY ARE SPIT UPON.

One OF the most humilita ting spectacles
presented by the results of the war, is that
exhibited in the attitude of the butternuts or
peace men of the free and loyal States Despi-
sed and mistrusted by their loyal fellow citi
zens,scornsd andexecrated by the men who are
periing their lives in defence of the life of the
Government, at length they are receiving
their proper deserts from the traitors, Every
rebel journal which floats northward, teens
with rebel anathemas on the peace and COM
promise. men of the north. The traitors them
selves denounce the butternuts as cowards-
too cowardly to strike a Government fLin-
coins, as they call it) which they hate, and
still more cowardly to assist those (the south
ern consprators) whom they protest to love.
The conscriptors, therefore spit upon the nor
thern butternuts and peace men, They pro-
claim their determination to exterminate the
whole breed, if they ever get north-and thev
also declare their unalterable purpose to
wage this war until slavery is extended or
made respectable in every State once com.
Poslrg thel''old Uuion.' This is the rebel an
swer to the peace Democracy of the north.
Ii leaves the butternuts in sad plight. They
have no alternative now, but to fight for the
defence of the government which they have
been strenously endeavoring to betray and
ruin, or bend their necks to the stroke of the
blade in the hands of their former aleies and
present Observation-Disclosures Telegraph
