The Boston correspondent Of the SmiGgiald
Republican reports Lowell, Natiok, Clinton,
aud other places " hich ara ahsad Of their
quotas, have been exempted to that extent by
toe draft, and ! suppose other towns which

favor. To avoid n total uhsettling of the daft,
learn that the Government consents TO lose
its men from those towns. aud INTENDS TO make
up the dsnciency from the other towns on the
next draft, if opa ia needed. This policy will
make the conscripti0n more unpopular than
ever, and there doss not seem to be any justice
iu it. 1t is no merit OF the people OF Lowell
and Natick aud Clinton that they are ahead
