Expenditure of Shot and Shell in tn e

Special Correspondence of the Chicago Times
VIoksBURG, August6. BIN former let
ter made some estimates as to the whole
number of shots fired during the siege of
Vicksburg. Since then reports have been
made by the various artillery officers to
Col. Duff, Gen. Grants Chief of Artillery,
from which his clerk, Sergeant Major G.
D. Reynolds, has furnished me the follow
ing official synopsis: From the time of
crossing the Mississippi River, May 1st,
till the day of the surrender, July 4th,
72,314 shell, AZ, S97 case, 1928 canister,
and 1889 solid shot, were expended
malsMg a total of 141 1928. They were
used in the several engagements as fol-
lows: $500 at Port Gibson; $40 at Ray
mond; AIS at Jackson; 1922 at Cham
pion Hill; 1928 at Big Black River 8, 599
on the 18th of May Greatly the first day
OF the siege; 1874 on the 22d of May :;
and 11,614 during the remainder of the
siege,-an average of 653 shots for each
cannon used. These are cannon shots
the reader will remember Add to these
the musketry, and some idea may be
formed of the immense amount Of amma-
milton consumed.

not having done it. When. therefore, a draf-
ted man is abroad or at sea, Or otherwise placed
in such circumstances as to render it physically
impossible for him to have had knowledge of
the draft, and of his duty under it, he shall not
be advertised or treated as a deserier Such
step would be cruel, and would shock that
sense of public justice which all entertain. If
such persons do not, without delay, report
themselves for duty after receiving information
that they have been drafted, they should be
arrested as deserters. 1t will be for the Secre-
tary of War to determine how long the public
interests will permit the government to wait
for the return of this class Of persons. IN
questionabIy the drafted men who do not with
in reasonable time return to the country, so
rs to enter the service, should not be accepted
as a part of the quota of troops due from the
State to which they belong.

Pride before a Fall.

This civil war, which all good men have
lamented, hath, nevertheless, many good
uses. 1t was, in fact, necessary to kill off
a multitude of rampant American vices,
prominent among which was "the pride
of race down South, which the. Yankees
have well nigh eXterminated.
From the Richmond Enquirer.
Pride of race pride in an ancestry of gentle
men, pride in all those habitudes and instincts
which separated us so immeasurably from the
peddling and swindling Yankee nation-all
this pride has been openly cherished and avow-
ed, in all simplicity and good faith, and we
have thousand times blessed God that seces-
sion, separation, war itself, have come in good
time to save our children from being debased
by contact with an order of beings whom in
our soul we disdained.
Now, if we should be conquered by those
Yankees?
Sure enough! What then ? alas the
Chivalry would be "played out" So
much the better-then, no longer pride of
section, but of country.

GEN. FOSTERS EXPEDITION TO JAMES RIVER.
FORTRESS MONROE, August 9.-The ex-
pediIiOn that left here on the 4th, under
the direction Of Major General Foster, &C
companied by the turreted iron-clad San
CANON, and the gunboats Commodore Bar
ney and Cohasset, proceeded up James
River, and when within seven miles of Fort
Darling, at point called Dutch Gap, a
torpedo was exploded under the bows of
the Commodore Barney, by lock-stling
connected with the shore.
The explosion was terrific. 1t lifted the
gunbOat's boy ten feet out of the water,
and threw great quantity of water high
in the air, which, falling on the deck,
washed overheard fifteen of the crew.
Among them was Lieut.. Gus ing, COM
mander Of the Commodore Barney. Two
sailors were drowned, but the rest were
saved. Major General Foster was on board
when the explosion took place.
The enemy then opened upon them from
the shore with 12-pounder feld-piece
The Barney was penetrated by fifteen shots,
besides great number of musket-balls.
but not man was injured, except the Pay
master, who was slightly wounded by
splinters
The gunboat Cohasset received five 12-
pound shot, one of which passed through
her pilot-house, instantly killing her com
mander, Acting Master Cox, striking him
in the back. The Commodore Barney was
lowed to Newport News to be repaired.
The object of the reconnaissance was &C
complished, and the fleet returned.

An ill Omen for the TraitOrs--SeceSs-
ion Becoming OdiOus.

The Richmond Enquirer is grievously
sad over the oozing courage Of the JEFF.
DAVIS traitors, whose fears Of final results
incline them to the opinion that the time
has arrived when loyal discretion is likely
to become more advisable than Yankee
hating valor.
That journal OF the 9th, lamenting the
ooziug chivalry of the rebels, says:
One may observe sometimes in the Confede-
rate newspapers, phrases which we regard as
of ill-Omen. 1t has become common to talk
sarcasticalv of the last ditch" men und the
''last drop blood men, namely: those who
declare that rather than yield to Yankee rule
they will shed the last drop of their blood and
die in the last ditch. Has this become a ri
diculOus sentiment, then?
Alas poor rebels, do you feel and con-
fess that there is only one step from the
sublime to the ridiculous.

The following opinion of Col. Joseph Holt.
Judge Advocate General, with regard to men
who have been drafted, and who were abroad
or at sea at the time of draft, is published for
the information and guidance of officers of this
bureau, viz: ..
The class of persons referred to, if deserteIs
according to the letter of the statutes are not
SO according to its spirit, and should not be so
treated by the government The drafted men
who are declared to be deserters for having
failed to report themselves for duty are those
who have actual personal notice. or construc-
tive notice. from leaving summons at their
last place of residence, that they Lave been
drafted. and that their attendance at the place
of r, ndezyous ramed is required. 1t is assum.
ed that the constructive notice has reached the
parties, and hence they are denounced as de-
serters for not obeying it. Desertion involves
a criminal INTENT and man cannot, in the
sense of the law, or with any propriety OF Ian
~nage. be held to have deserted a service when
ne aid not know he belonged to ito have
neglected duty when he had no means of
knowing that it had been imposed upon him.
The law would stultify itself were it to declare
otherwise.
Ignorance of the law excuses no man, but
ignorance of facts always does. The law
obliges no man to do an impossible thing, nor
can It on any principle hold him responsible for
