Bounty for Getting Recruits.

We understand that in several instan-
ecs when persons have brought in re-
cruits to the examining surgeon in this
city. other parties have pursuaded them
that none but officers could get the re-
eruits accepted, and have thus pockeied
all the bounty save two dollars allowed
to the one who has brought the recruits.
This is not only unjust to those who are
getting recruits, but is calculated to large
" decrease the number brought in. 1t
should be generally understood that any
one agho brings recruit aud gets ham
accepted, Is Untitled to tie lckOIe Gov
erDmeqt boaHty-tJteen dollars
When the recruit is accepted by the sur
geon, the name Of the person bringing
him in is set down, and on this evidence
the bounty will be paid. We may say,
by the WAY, that there is no more profit
able business at this time Than this. We
have known one instance where over
three hundred dollars was earned in one
week. The provision of the law giving
this bounty is q very wise one and
should not be nullified through the inter-
ested mis-interpretation of those who do
nothing really in obtaining men.-MI-
