The Mob in New York, and its Connection
with thA Draft

While the visible physical strength Of the mob
in New York is composed largely Of thieves, gar
rioters and cut-,hroats, there is unfortunately the
most convincing evidence that those who for
months have been clamoring in the newspapers
and on the hustngs against the CONSUMPTION law,
are in alliance with these rio,ous villains to resist
the draft. Mr.. Sandford, one Of the Board OF
Councilman in New York, made this speech the
other evening at meeting Of the Board, as report
ed by the Herald:
"Mr. Sanford said that the $500 CONSUMPTION
clause was the occasion of oil this trouble. SO
far as he was concerned, he would vote for any
amount OF money to permit poor men TO remain
at home with their families but, so far as his
private opinion was concerned, he ,soud not rsie
for single man or single dollar for The further
prosecution Of The ipar. The Erecuiipe cannot
get The number Of conseripis he has called for 10
put do,pn the Rebellion; consequently il cannot
be put dozen. The only way by which the Re

break in New York City, as, il possible, to rghten
the Government into an abandonment of the draft.
Every friend Of our National Government, eve
ry lover Of the Union and every man who desires
the ultimate and speedy success Of oar arms
against traitors, will be reassured however, by
the evidence which is now being given, that the
National Government has no purpose Of recedug
single step at the bidding Of New York mob
although backed by New York newspapers and
New York politicians. We know there is large
population Of rufiians, shouder-hitters and scoun-
drels in that city, who are ready to lend them
selves to any political or rebel faction that encour-
ages mob law, but we are at the same time cheer
ed with the belief that troops are being concen-
trated in the city sufficient to awe thieves into
silence and peace and when the thieves and
plunderers, more courageous scoundrels,-
are frightened into submission, their cowardy aid
srs and abetors-t the Fernando Woods the Nc
Gums, the Brooks and such papers as the .Nt,0s,
the Herald, the lErpress, and the WOrId-will
snarIiugIy and sneakingIy acquiesce in obedience
to the laws By the kind blessing OF good
Providence, our victories in the field so far relieve
the Government from danger from Southern reb-
els, that can devote little time and strength to
the traitors at the North. And when again, in
few days, it is ready to continue the draft in that
city there will be present such military force as
will make rebellion in New York as dangerous as
rebellion in Maryland. And we expect when
that time comes, and law and order are sternly
maintained, that Gov. Seymour not only will have
the cunning TO forget that he ever addressed
mob as My friends" but will impudently AFRO
gate to himself the praise of having, by most
wonderful mixture of honey and vinegar, SO al
layed the passions Of bis friends" as to bring the
rule Of law out Of the anarchy Of the mob, and
the blessings Of peace and order out Of the de-
structiye chaos Of unbridIed swlessneSs. But the
people will not forget who, in the terrible hour Of
mob law, were, on the one hand, the real friends
Of law and order, and who, on the other, were the
partsans and friends of the mob. Let the people
keep the record in mind, and hereafter, when the
Woods, and Brooks, and Seymours claim to be
the especial champions Of obedience to law, call
to mind their course during three days Of mob
rule in New York City.

GIVING AID AND COMFORT TO THE MoB.-There
are certain class of papers in the country that,
after having excited the passions of violent men
till they have blazed forth in the frenzy Of
fendish mob Of violence, are now trying to
turn this mob against the Government, AMI use
it to compel the abandonment of any further at
tempts to raise soldiers TO put down treason.
The New York World, after pleading tho cause
of the murderers who have desolated so many
portions of that city, says
Men of all classes should unite and demand
that the CONSUMPTION BIO postponed. 1t is simply
madness to try and enforce it, The present
mob is not really dangerous, as it has no organ.
ization, and the good sense, wealth, In fact all
the great interests of the city, are against it.
But its suppression can only be guaranteed by
postponement Of the draft.
What shall we think Of paper which de-
clares that the Government must yield to the
demands OF a mob which 1t declares in the
same paragraph :" is not really dangero US.
has no organzation,' and is opposed by !" all
the great interests of tho city" Dos any
one doubt where the Worlds sympathies are,
and that it hopes to mako this mob useful in
weakening the Government

Provost Marshal General in reference to the of.
feet of the payment of $500 in exempting a
drafted man from further drafts. We do not
entirely agree, however, with the views of our

to make distinction. between the payment OF
$500 and the procuring an " acceptable substi-
tute." But the probability that there will be
another draft, il this isproperly answered, with
In the time which the present draft covers, is, we
think, so small as to make the question one Of

and rebel sympathizers said it would 90 up out
of sight But it has since come down, down,
and is now cheaper than at any time within two
years. 1t begins to come to us from abroad,
and will soon seek investment in Government
Bonds, at premium. All the signs are now
IN our favor, and the backbone of the rebellion
seems, at last, about broken. Even the spite
fol struggles of the rebel sympathizers IN our
great ties, stirring up riotous demonstrations
against the draft, cannot long postpone the COL
lapse of treason Let us all but stand steadily
and firmly together, yield not an inch of our
advantage to the rebels, North or South, and
we may look confidently for the blessings Of
peace to sooh visit our distracted country.

A CAPTuRED REBEL,-I.EyI Ii. Wing, young
man well known in this village, who worked
for some years with Pbinpoy 4 Mead, jewellers,
and afterwards with Mr., phnney, has been
known to be in the rebel army since the COM
mencement of the rebellion, lie went to Ma.
son, Ca, and established himself in business
there, before the war broke out. On the out.
break of hostilites he belonged to the military
company which offered its services TO the Govern
or oil that State, and was at once accepted and
ordered to Norfolk, Va, from which place Mr.
Wing wrote bis friends here in April, 1861.
Since then his relatives have heard bu, little Of
him, until now, when he writes them from Get
tysburg, where he is wounded and prisoner in
Pennsylvania College Hospital. lie says his
wound is no, severe. lie has been wounded
once before. lie lisa Lieutenant, and as Off.
GERS arc not now exchanged, he does not expect
to go south at present. His letter makes no
allusion to anything but personal matters.

Mon RuLx.-New York has bad bitter ex-
periencc Of mob rule, and we hope has learned
q lesson from it that she will profit by. Mob
violence soon becomes indisoriminate violence.
Every cut throat, murderer, garroter, villain,
and scoundrol in New York who has sufficient
courage, has joined the mob in that city. It
cares but little for the draft. 1t is not that
alone, or chiefly, that has excited the disturb
ancc. But the fame of wicked passions has
been blown into this great fire Of destructive
violence by men who have hoped to make head
against the Government. The moving spirit Of
the mob has been sympathy with traitors in
arms. But those who have stirred up these
Internal spirits Of anarchy, have found that
they cannot guide the mob they have raised
and they are compelled to ask the constituted
guardians of the public peace to deliver the
city from mob rule. We hope the people Of
New York will learn from this terrible ex-
pericnco that law and order are the highest
blessings which any people can enjoy. And we
trust they will also learn who are the true
friends and supporters of public order, aud who
render the readiest and most cheerful obedience
to law.

DISTRICT COSvKSTIoS.-We hope the people
Of this County will keep in mind the District
Convention at Rutland the Goth inst. 1t is
something of a journey, we know, from hero to
Rutland, but the election Of Member Of Con-
gress will be virtually made there, the voting in
September being only a matter of form. The
politicians and Office holders will be on hand,
for they always so to Conventions whether they
are near or remote. And if the people have
any choice in the matter, we advise them to 20
and express that choice in convention. where it
will be Of some use and not stay at home and
grumbc whom they hear that the wrong man
has been nominated. The most prominent can
didates whose names have yet been mentioned,
are Hon. \. +, Woodbridge and Hon, j. w.
Stewart of Addison County, and A. B. Gardner,
Esq, of Bennington County. 1t seems to be
conceded that the candidate will be on the other
side of the mountain, and the canvass is much
more active there than here. Nevertheless this
County should be fully and fairly represented in
the Convention, and lot the people see to it that
it is 80.

A PROCLAMATION

BIZ The President Of The United STATES Of America
A PROCLAMATION.
Il has pleased Almighty God to hearken to the
snppcations and prayers OF on afflicted people,
and to vouohsafe to the army and navy OF the
United States on the land and on the s9a victories
so signal and so effective as to furnish reasonable
ground for augmented confidence that the Union
Of these states will be maintained, their Constltu-
ton preserved aud their peace and prosperity per-
maneutly restored but these victories have been
accorded not without sacrifice Of life, limb, health
and liberty, incurred by brave, patriotic, and loyal
citizens. Domestic aflllction in every part OF the
country follows in the train Of these fearful be-
reayements. 1t is meet and right to recognize
and confess the presence of the Almighty Father,
and the power of bis hand equally in these trl-
umphs and these sorrows.
Now therefore, be it known, that | do set
apart Thurlday, the sixth day of August nexl, TO
be observed as day for national Thanksgiving,
praise and prayer, and invite the people OF the
United States to assemble on that occasion in the
customary places Of worship, and in the forms APP
proved by their own conscience, render the hom-
age due to TIE Divine Majesty for the wonderful
things He has done in the nations behalf, and in
woke the influence Of His holy spirit to subdue
the anger which has produced and SO long sus-
tanned needless and cruel rebellion to change
the hearts Of the insurgents 4; to guide the coun-
sells Of the government with wisdom adequate to
so great national emergencyj and to visit with
tender care and consolation, throughout the length
and breadth Of our land, all those who, through
the vcissitudes Of marches, voyages, battles, and
sieges, have been brought to suffer in mind, body
or estate and finally to lead the whole nation
through paths of repentance and submission to
the Divine will, to the perfect enjoyment Of union
and fraternal peace.
In witness whereof have hereunto set my
hand and caused the seal Of the United States to

EXEMPTIONS. In view OF some inquiries on
the subject Of exemption, We offer the follow
ing suggestions
lat, We do not believe that q person enrolled
and drawn by name different in some respects
from his true name, will on that account be ex'
empt. The question to be decided will rather
DO whO was enrolled and drawn. Unless this
was so, person might desgnedly give wrong
name to the enrolling officer, and thus secure
his exemption.
"a, We believe that no person who is exempt
because he is an alien, over or under age or FOL
any other reason, will, because he was CHROME
ously enrolled, DO compelled to go into the ser
vice. If enrolling officers have made mistakes
they will be all corrected by the proper author
tiles on proof of the facts.
These propositions appear too plain for argu
ment, and we hope drafted men will consider
them when determining what course 10 take il
their own cases.
| 1t will be wise to be as reasonable about thu
draft, as about other things.
