TEE NEXT DRAFr.-We yesterday published
an Official notice Of the greatest Importance 10
all persons who are enrolled In this city and
liable to draft The same notice appears TO-
day in our advertising columns. Il is the duty
Of all our citizens who are in any way inte.
rested in the expected draft to give their atten.
tion to the facts that are so fully and clearly
set forth in this document There is reason 10
believe that the government will shortly call
for further reinforcements for our armies in the
field, and draft may be ordered at any day.
The first thing necessary Is TO see that the en-
rolmcnt be properly corrected and reduced.
Although the public has been frequently called
upon to look TO this matter, our citizens have
shown but very little disposition TO do So 1t
will be their own fault IL they do not respond
to the call now made by the authorities OF the
city If they 90 not the enrolment will be
much greater than 1t should be, the quotas will
be necessarily larger, and the general effect OF
The draft will fall heavier upon all classes.
We therefore call particular attention to The
notice 10 which we have referred.

A CoLoRED preacher within our lines recently

GIVING QUARTER.-This phrase is said to have
originated from an agreement between the Dutch
and Spaniards, that the ransom of an officer or
soldier should be a quarter of his pay. Hence to
beg quarter, to offer a quarter of their pay
for their safety, and to refuse quarter was not TO
accept that compensation as a ransom.
