Yu,uortant TO Conscripts.

1t will be seen by the following that the
decision of the Provost Marshal General
that drafted men may not pay their COM
mutation or furnish substitutes after the
preliminary surgicale examination, has been
reversed in accordance with an opinion of
the Solicitor of the War Department,
Hon. William Whiting of Massachusetts.
This removes what has been regarded as
an oppressive construction of the law by
the Provost Marshal General.

rNGroN, July 16, 1868, )
CIRCULAR No. 51.-The fourth para
graph of Circular No. A, issued from
this Office July Y, 1863, IS hereby modi-
fed so as to correspond with the opinion
of Hon. VIM. Whiting, Solicitor of the
War Department, which will hereafter
govern in all cases to which it is applica-
BILE.
OPINION A person drafted into the
military service of the United States un-
der the provisions of the act of March 3,
1868, Chapter IS, for enrolling and call
ing ont National forces and for other pur-
poses, claiming exemption from draft by
reason of any disability, as provided in
said act, has the right to have the question
of his disability submitted to and passed
upon by the Board of Enrolment, whose
decision thereon is final. If the Board
shall have decided the conscript is liable tc
serve, he has the right, after such decision
to pay his communication money or TO fur
nish substitute, within such extended
time as may be fixed by the Board of En-
rollment for his appearance for duty.

IMPORTANT FROM NORTH CAROLINA.

IMPORTANT FROM NORTH CAROLINA.
-Newbern IN. C.) correspondence of
the l2tl inst. says that Hon, Bradford
Brown, State Sena.or from Caswell Co.,
N. c., has taken open grounds fer the re-
construction of the Union. 1t is under
stood, and as much is admitted by the
Raleigh Standard, that majority of the
Legislature and Sovereign Convention con-
cur with Mr.. Brown, but it is thought in
Raleigh that she cannot with safety to her
self throw off the Confederate yoke, so
long as the Confederate army hold VIZ
gina, or until there is sufficient National
force there to sustain such an effort.
Later intelligence from the Legislature
now in session at Raleigh confirm, the re-
port that many Of its members have come
out for the immediate repeal of the act of
secession passed by the Sovereign Con-
venion of the State, and for the recall
home by Governor Vance of the North
Carolina troops from the Confederate ar
my al once.

LEES EscAPE.-The Washington cor
respondent of the New York Tribune
says:
q The President sent two dispatches to
Gen. Meade day or two before the es-
cape of the enemy across the river, in both
of which he urged the necessity Of an i'm
mediate attack. In one of these dispatch
es he said he thought all the appearances
indicated that no other occasion would
speedily arise offering circumstances so fa-
vorablesto us and so unfavorable to the
enemy. He therefore wished battle
to be delivered at once. In the council Of
war which decided against attacking Gen.
Lee, at time when subsequent disclosures
have shown only two-thirds of his army
perhaps forty thousand men, would have
been in line to receive our soldiers flushed
with victory, the other third having al
ready crossed, the Generals who pro-
nounced against the attack were Sedg-
wick, Sykes, French Hayes and Slocum
Those in favor of attack were Generals
Meade, Howard, Pleasanton and Wads-
worth, temporarily commanding the First
Corps, (Gen. Newton being sick J with
Generals Humphrey and Warren, of Gen.
Meade's staff"

VALLANDIGHAM's ADpREss.-Mr. G.
L. Vallandigham, in second address to
the people of Ohio, dated Niagara Falls,
July Is, accepts the Democratic nominal
ton for Governor After reciting the
course of his recent travels, he says that
'Ethe shallow contrivance of the weak des-
pots at Washington and their advisers has
been defeated" He refers in grateful
terms to his nomination, and eraogizes the
platform and doings of the convention
very strongly. In this connection he re
peats his well known sentiments. He
thus states the issue of the coming cleo
ton:
''It was the mission of the weak but
presumptuous Major General Burnside
a name infamous forever in the ears of all
lovers of constitutional liberty--to try the
experiment in Ohio-aided by Judge
whom name not, because he has brought
foul dlshonor upon the Judiciary of my
country. In your hands now, men of
Ohio, is the final issue of the experiment.
The party OF the administration have ac-
cepted it. By pledging support to the
President, they have justified his outrages
upon liberty and the Constitution, and
whoever gives his vote to the candidates of
party, commits himself to every act of vio-
ence and wrong on the part of the admin
istration which he upholds; and thus, by
the law of retaliation, which IS the law of
might, would forfeit bis own right to lib
erty, personal and political, whatsoever
other men and another party shall hold
the power"

A SwINDLED GERMAN.--A good story
is told of German farmer near Gettys-
burg, who joined the Knights of the
golden CIRCLE" to save his property, but
found the rebels hard-hearted. He tells
his own wrongs thus -
Mister ---- he comes to me and
say for Won tollar he vii makes me Won
knights of tie golden schircles dat he vii
give me all te signs and grips, SO ash dat
ven the Southern man comes he shall not
touch any of my broberty, but shall get
all he wants from de plack republicans
So gives him tie Won tollar and he gives
me tie grips and te signs, and says shall

and says " Mynheer, ish knights golden

horses. O ish ruined man; | gives mine

MARrYREp RIoTERs.-What precious
martyrs the rioters in the eighteenth
ward, New York, have become! This
ward is the headquarters Of mischief, and
contains a pretty large portion of the
" constituency " Of Gov Seymour. He
has united with their Senator and Coun-
cilmen in requesting the withdrawal of
the military force, on the ground that the
influence of the quieter portion of the cit
liens would be sufficient to keep order,
and the presence of the military was
source of irritation But the Police Com
missioners could not see 1t. They not on
ly would not remove the military, which
is great outrage on the rights of the
rioters, but declared that the eighteenth
ward is a plague spot, which is an out
rage upon the feelings of these "pet
lambs" Ard to make bad matter worse
Gen Brown, when appealed to, declared
that there had been too much tempoliz-
ing with rebels already" Why couldn't
they speak softly to these misguided !"
men?
The rights of the rioters have been out
| ragged IN another way. One ot them was
arrested, and Judge McCunn hastened to
secure his release with a habeas corpus.
But this precious representative of an
elective Judiciary did not know enough to
draw up the writ in legal form, and the
authorities took no notice of 1t. So the
rioter has been deprived of his right Of
hsbeas corpus. A constituent of Gov
Seymour is shut up, and the copperhead
press have another opportunity to howl
over their lost liberties. 1t is strange that
the Police Commissioners cannot see the
beauties of the Democratic system of deal
ing with the rioters, first temporzing with
them, and then trucking to them! 1t is
system which don't lose votes nor alien
ate influence -Bostoa Journal.

PRESIDENT LINCOLN ON VALLAN-
bingham AGAIN.-ln response to the
Committee of the Democratic Convention
of Ohio, which asked " revocation OF
the order Of bis [Vallandingham'sl ban
ishment," President Lincoln offered to
comply if the committee would agree to
three things
lst. That it is constitutional to use the
army and navy to put down the rebellion
ID. That they will not do anything to
hinder the increase of the army or navy,
or their efficiency
Sd. That they will do all they can to
have the officers, soldiers, and sailors well
fed, paid, and clad
The Coamettee acOasJd not agyse to this,
but lft Val. 10 get back as best he could.
How GRINT DOES TIT is sa d that
Pemherton su. rendered Vicksburg at
A. M, July 4, and that at 4o'cleck
Grant had 40 600 on the march to find
and whip Johnston. From 10000 to l5,-
900 men were simultaneously put on board
transports to reinforce Banks. This prob
ably had something TO do with the sur
render Of thai place.

The REBEL Mission Recent events
strengthen the belief that the object of
Vice President Stephens some days ago, in
asking permission to proceed to Washing
ton on board confederate vessel of war
to deliver an official communication from
JEFF Davis to President Lincoln. was to en-
trap our government into an implied re-
cognition of the assumed southern nation
alty. Hence the refusal, and since that
time no question of peace has come be-
fore the cabinet.

LATEST FROM VICKsBURG. The fol-
lowing is from the latest intelligence from
Vicksburg, forwarded to the Cincinnati
Gazette
50 The number of guns captured is 2O9
pieces light and q siege guns, beside
arms for every man in Vicksburg, and
$4,000 Enfield rifles for Kirby Smiths
army. Smiths army got to the other
side of Vicksburg, and was seen on the
Louisiana shore, but seeing the flag of the
free waving over its ramperts, he retired
in good order for parts unknown. Gun
boats ply up and down the river, and he
is unable to cross. Gen. Pemberton ad-
mitted, in a recent conversation, that an
army oil $4,000 men nai been used up in
the effort to hold Vioksburg. He also
admitted that his loss since the siege COM
menced was upward of 5000 men, num-
ber larger than Grant lost in all his oper-
ations before the captured city.
The condition of General Pemberton is
pitiable in the extreme. His officers false
iy and meanly ascrlbe the result to all
sorts of baseness and imbecility, while the
poor man Is nearly crazy, and evlnces in
an unmistakable manner the humiliation
and anguish he feels.
He keeps confined to his room, walk:
frantically all the time, tearing his hair
and giving all sorts of evidence that he il
an undone man. He was one of the few
as we learn from an eyewitness, who gav'
unmstakeable manifestations of repug
nance to taking the parole. His condition
excites the commisoration of all unbiased
| persons at Vicksburg."

Col. VEAzEr's REGIMENT IN BATTLE.

Col. VEAZET's REGIMENT IN BATTLE.
A recent telegraphic dispatch reported
Gen. Doubleday as speaking in the high
est terms of the behaviour in the last bat
ties of certain nine months regiments from
Vermont who had never been under fire
before. We extract the following account
from letter written the 5th, on the bat
tle-feld, by Col. w. c.. Veazey to his
wife in Nashua, N. FL.
"On the last and decisive day was in
front with my regiment (l6th VT having
been on picket all the night before. They
opened on me at daylight, but my men
never gave way. We held the picket line
till they advanced their lines of battle,
when / got my men together and charged
with the 18th and l4th regiments and we
annihilated one brigade in less than 80
minutes, and took great many prisoners.
Then another brigade of rebels came to
my left and rear-as | had changed front
somewhat in the charge-when | again
changed front and charged this second
| brigade along on their flank, and killed
and captured nearly all of them, taking
tnfee StailuS ol CoioTS. we uiu thiS iiSHt
under the immediate fire of 100 pieces of
artillery, playing upon us. They could
not get a good range on us except occa-
sionally. / had but about $50 men to
make the last charge with. We brought
the rebel colors in and turned them over
to Gen. Meade. One stand had "Seven
Pines" and Williamsburgh " on it. The
18th and 18th were not present. | never
saw men fight as our three regiments did
/ lost about $50 men.
Col. Veazey has been in the service
nearly two years aud knows what hard
fighting is. His skillful management Of
his command at Gettysburg has added
new lustre to his already splendid repula
ton as an officer, Vermont will not forge
his ser,-ices.-N Fl. Telegraph.
