Prepare for the draft. The Provost
Marshal General has addressed a despatch
to his Assistants, ordering them to prepare
to commence the draft on the 10th inst ,
in every sub district whose quota vas not
filed by the lst of March. The number
of recruits received between the LIST and
10th may be deducted after the draft com

That Is another spasmodic movement.
like everything else that emanates from
Old Abe and the War Department, and
wholly unintsliisablo. A few weeks ago
the Provost marshal General informed GER
tain parties in New England that applied
to him, that all the veterans re-enlisting
in the army, would be credited to their
respective states on the Last call tor 500,
900 men In that view, Of course there is
hardly 4 state but has already filled its
quota. Then, but week age, the provost
marshal further Informed the Governor OF
Rhode Island. we believe, that the late
calls for 100000 and then 200, 1000, in al!
10000 men were intended to include and
cover all calls ma de since tine LIST Of July
last. That is, not only the September cal
for 300 900, the December call for 500 COS
interpreted to mean but 2o0, 900 more, to
increase the 100000 to 50O,0O0) tut also
the draft for 500 600 ordered in July last.
Thus in states where T. Draft has taken
place, all the men actually drafte or VIII 0
had paid communications, were to DO cred
tied en- the last call for 100000 men The
object, the Provost Marshal stated distinct
! ": was to clean and square up every thing
by the 10th Of March, so as to have a clear
field for tie next CONSUMPTION that might
be ordered under the new law In this
view, Of course, there is probably not a
state, county or hamlet in the country Out
has filed its quota. Certainly, since July
last, by the Draft, re-enlistnent of vetsr-
an, and g. neral volunteering, over 100000
men have been added to the army
! Then VIC venture 10 say further, that
, neither the Provost Marshal General OF
any of his assistants down to the loves,
assistant deputy enrolling officer, can give
the II est dIstan. idea of the quota due BY
a single state, district, souaty or precinct
in the United States. According TO the
/ figures Of Adj Gen. Fuller and Gov YATES
| Illinois, under the latest Interpretation 0!
/ Provost Marsha! General Fry, must be
some 5000 ahead of her quota. Yet We
should not be enc bit surprised If draft
were ordered next Thursday in portion,
of Illinois, and even in La Sale county
