credited for volunteers sent to the seat OF war.
The President in reply, under date of Au-

New York because time is too important. He
admits the disparity Of quotas in different
sections and accounts for it by the fact that SO
manv more persons fit for soldiers are in the
CITY than the country who have too recently
arrived from Europe to be included Ia the cen.
sus of 1860.
Sill he would not consider that reason sufi-
cient. and he would direct the draft to pro
ceed, drawing only the average quota OF all
districts. After this drawing the city districts
shall be carefully re-enrolled and the Govern
