The above call orders irat for two
hundred Thousand more men, in addition
to the five hundred thousand called for
last Winter. II will be observed that
the new draft is to supply force need.
ed for tho navy, aud to provide reserve
for the Army which shall BE- adequate To
meet oil contingencies that may arise
during the next campaign. Citlcs,,towns,
SC, will be allowed until the lbth OF
next month to raise their several quotas
by voluntary enlistment. The dralt viii
then be made to supply any deficiencies.
The government bountics will be con-
iinucd until April lst, after which date
but one hundred dollars will be paid.
This call is somewhat unexpected, but
we bolicvo with our cotcmporury, the
Philadelphia North American, that il
finds us ready and willing to meet It's re-.
quiromonts. The necessity of more
troops has boon repeatedly urged, and
one OF the ehnrgcs of the Copperhcad.
has been that tho government dallicd
with It's duty and did not put forth those
energies requisite to secure success
That accusation is met by these evidon-
ccs. II is determined to end the war
speedily. No stronger assurance of the
fact could be given than in the numbers
ofmon called for. While each fresh re-
quisition finds us less ready to meet it4
demands, by reason of the operation OF
It's predecessor and in virtue of the gen
cral increase of business activity, II finds
also, au enhanced Willingness. The
war has progressed 80 far thu, there |.
no alternate but 10 carry tito close. -
That close can be most speedily =, cured
by the agencies which uro bciug EN-
ployed.
We must take hold of tho task vpor-
ously and at once. 1.-THE full upportion.
mept is not met by volunteering, with
these facts az TO tho cessation of boun.
ties, the drait will inevitably occur
Every man secured before the desiu mated
day lessons the chances pf conscrpton
10 every other man. Al should, there
fore, do their utmost "a secure MS many
volunteers as possible, from motives o,
self interest, II they arc not Octuatcd by
ngger aud moro patriotic Inspirations.
1t is known that several war vessels
are now lying ready for sea, but tha,
their departure has been delayed for
many wcchs from tho difficulty of pre-

tent, entered the army, Competent
sailors are being transferred from the
army TO the navy, in order To remedy
this trouble. Tho conscIip,on will sup.
ply all who uro wanted, aud leave a sur.
plus for this important branch of the
service.
The rebellion States are returning to
the Union and its laws, under tie
achievements of our soldiers heretofore.
Louisiana, Arkansas, some portions of
Tennessee, all of Kentucky, half of Vir.
ginia aud North Carolina--thcso arr now
ours. Tho area of tba rebellion is d. |
minished. Its wants and it's wrath are
inci eased We have less territory u o
over, and daily still less. This one c(.
fort should help us far forward to the tor.
mutation, IL the SIZE and suddcnncss of
the call strike us, what will be the in.
creased effect upon the rebels aud their
sympOthizers What upon Europe,
which sees that our resources multiply
with the demands made upon thcm, and
that the determination to save the union
is adequate to every exertion needed Tor
that end
Let every man put his shoulder TO the
wheel. There " no time to be lost
Let all the old agencies be rc.awakencd,
and the drai wholly avoided, or rcnd,r
cd - slight as to bo unnoliccahlr. The
preparatory step should be takcn at once,
that the beginning Of April may see us
well advanced Ia the work which lies
before Us.
