The Military Bill.

Without impugniDg the motives Of the Committee On
Military Affair, or charging that the sweeping bill for
lie repeal e! exemptions owes its origin to a natural
aversion to work and desire to get rid of vexatious
matter, We may yes 5frm that little abour e1
pended on proper mirtsry bill would have expedited
the business of the session ald ensured the much needed
increase of the army. More than half the session is
gone, ard within tso months the campaign will open.
Not memeut is to be lost. q" II 'twsre done when tits

There is itte occasion for DISCUSSION for the proper

End of the War-Lyons Endorsing seward
Lord Lyons in despatch 10 Lord Russell from
Washington announces that the in America will be
terminated within the next three month. This is very
gratifying But Lyons adds "the Confeierates being in
the greatest extremities will have speedily to propose
an armistce" This puts another face on the matter
We here at the "Rehei" Capital not epared to be
used up at such short notice. For politeness sake,
Lord Lyons ought toave made his three
months ago. Ninety days is short time for people,
who have whipped the Yankees in nearly every general
engagement, to settle up their accounts Why reg
mental quarermaster could not settle his accounts in
less than half year.
Abiding to Lyons reported despatch, the London
Globe says drily "We recommend our readers to re-
ceve such statements with reserve, aud not TOO hastily
to assume Lord IyoRs readiness to accept the 30 days
bills so often drawn by the enthusiastic Federal
sympathizers and often renawed at heavy rate oil
interest"
We agree with the Globe. Il is possible "Narse

introduced in the House by Mr.. Smith, of N. O., PRO-
posing to revive the privilege of substitution as far as
applicable to those who previous 10 lst JAN 1864 were
eglged in raising Subsistence for man. Negroes left
to themselves will not make their own support They
will become consumers instead Of producers, apart
from greater injuries they would commit from the utter de-

soon become an easy prey to demOraz,d soldiers and
skukers and to negroes who will become rapidly re-
baFbarianixed.
We would suggest, in extending this privilege to
planters that be required of every one 70 exempted
that he shall deliver 10 the government promptly and
in good order certain proportion of the surplus OF bis
