An ARMY OF EXEMPT REBELS The Rich
mond Dsspdteh has an editorial article on the
law passed by the rebel congress for the organ
izAtion OF an army of e1empts: 1t says:
"This measure is one which, II prudently
and efficiently carried out, will be OF great SER
vice In the struggle in which we are now en-
gagged. It should not be SO administered as
materially to interfere with the productive
labor OF the country, while 1t should insure a
thorough organization Of q reserve force whose
services in the hour OF trial and eIiRency
would be timely and valuable.
"Theraids and surprises of localities achieved
by the enemy, which have bee" so disastrous
in the destruction of the necessariea OF life de-
mand that the country should be armed and
disciplined everywhere, that every man should
be soldier even at home, and ready at o mo-
.menps warning TO rush TO the defence. This
is the spirit that should actuate us all; and
when 1t does so, We shall have begun To realSl
in earnest. The enemy will then find that the
war has Just begun, and that, so far from sub
jugAtlng the South, he has not advanced a steI
towards it."
