By the President of the United States
. a PROCLAMATION. .


WHEREAS, The term of service of part of
the volunteer forces of the United States
will expire during the coming year: And
whereas. in addition to the men raised by
the present draft, it is deemed expedient to
call out 100000 volunteers toserve for three
years or during the war; not, however, ex
ceeding three years.
Now, therefore, /, Abraham Lincoln, Pres
ident of the United States and Commander
in-chief of the Army and Navy thereof. and
Of the Militia of the several States when
called into active service, do issue this, my
PROCLAIM alton, calling upon the Governors Of
the different States to raise and have enlisted
into the United States service, for the var-
Gus companies and regiments in the field,
from their respective States, their quotas of
100000 men.
further proclaim that all the volunteers
that come out and are duly enlisted, shall
receive pay, premium and bounty, as here
tofore communicated to the Governors Of
the States by the War Department throu Oh
the Provost Marshal Generals office, by
special letter.
further proclaim that all volunteers re-
ceived under this call, as we'll as all others
not heretofore credited shall be duly credited
and deducted from the quotas established for
| the new draft.
further proclaim if any State shall fail to
raise the quota assigned to it by the War
| Department, made nnder this call, then a
draft for the deficiency in said quota shall
be made in said State, or in the districts of
said State, for the due proportion of said
quota, and the said draft shall commence
on the 9Th day Of January, 1864.
| i further proclaim. that nothing in this
proclamato shall interfere with existing
ORDERS or with those which may be issued
| for the present draft, the States where it is
in progress, or where it has not yet been
commenced.
| The quotas of the States and districts will
be assigned by the War epartment, i bro Dc h
the Provost Marshars office, due regard being
had for the men heretofore furnished,
whether by volunteering or drafting; and
the recruiting will be conducted in accord
ance with such instructions as have been or
may be issued by that department.
In issuing this PROCLAIM alton / address
myself not only to the Governors of the sew
eral States. but also to the good and loyal
people thereof, invoking them to lend their
cheerful and effective aid to the measures
thus adopted, with a view to reinforce our
victorious armies now in the field, and bring
our military operations to a prosperous end,
thus closing forever the fountains of sedition
and civil war.
In witness whereof 1 have hereurto set
my hand and caused the seal of the United
States to be affixed. Done at the city of
Washington, this seventeenth day of Octo-
