~ an opinion of the Solicitor of the War
Department, to the effect there is no way
for person once enrolled to escape his

long as he remains liable II he leaves

TO draft, he becomes liable as deserter
if he is drafted and does not appear. The
notice required is simply to leave a copy
at his last place of residence. If he Is
not there to receive it, and doe. not pro-
vide for its being sent to him, it is his own

WASHING TON, March 9th, 1864.
DEAR AMERICAN -
The sun is shining clearly to-day, ard
the weather is warm and fine. Ii is the
first pleasant day, think for the week.
The recent snow and rain has laid an emhar-
20 on the dust. and therefore this is a fine
opportunity to live in the streets. Hotel
life here is not the most agreeable thing in
the world for many reasons. The price
must be satisfactory to those with plethoric
purses. and possessing generous natures.
To such it may be more blessed to give
than to receive, but to those not similarly
made up and happily fitted ou, with green
hacks it is not so pleasant. But to us the
mos, disagreeable part. is the constant,
never-euding, always beginning, use of to-
baeco, with all its disgusting. or rather.

person. black or white. bond or free, well
OF i'll. citizen or denizen, that does not use
the filthy weed sixteen hours of the twenty
four of each day, We have not yet seen
him. Hotel life then, unless one has a
mint of money to pay the bills, and rare
good luck in obtaining tolerbly deoen,
room, is miserable life, because the pub.
lie sitting rooms and all accessible portions
Of Hotel are envelopcd with cloud Of
tobacco smoke, thicker and mon impervi-
