The Enrolimcnt EsiiI.

WAsHlSGToN Jan. 1.-THE members
Of both the Military committees of Con
gross have received large numbers Of let
ters; the writers volunteering suggestions
or advice as to what should be the feature
Of the anended enrolment bill, evidently
desiring that it should be so framed as to
exempt themselves from the draft The
bill before the Sonats will probably psss
that body tomorrow and be sent to the
House for concurrence. 1t corrects some
of the faults in, and ite objects are TO ron
der more ethcent the operation ofthe pre-
ent Law. The only persons specially e1,
empted from the draft are the Vice Pros
ident Of the United States; the Judges of
l.. s. Courts, the heads ofthe several Ex-
ccative Departments, and the Governors
of States; and by implication, such persons
as arc physically or mentally unfit for
service according te the prescribed army
regulations.
The two classes for enrolment and draft
srs merged into one, which is made to in
cluds all persons between the ages Of 20
aud 40 years. Credits are 20 be given to
cities, towns, and wards, SO as to squAlisc
as far ss possible, the draft throughout
each district. Tho csmmutation is more
sed 60 $500; those who pay it to be e1emp-
ted from the present draft, but liable to
be called upon in the next-in other words
they are ia the condition Of . reserved
class.
Drafted men nsy if they prefer, be
transferred to the navy-such transfer
being credited to their respective local
tiles. Alterations are made in the details
Of the old Act for conducting the draft;
and attorneys or agents are restricted TO
the fee of IS for preparing the necessary
exemption papers. The bill has not yet
been perfected BY the Senate, but it will
probably pass that esdy With The abov.
