How THE YANKEE ARMY Is TO DE KEPT
UP.-The New York Herald denies the truth
of the widely circulated report that there is TO
be another draft Immediately after the election,
and adls:
There is not to BE another draft, either before
the election or after it; but of course the oov-
ernment will soon want more men, and we are
glad TO- learn that measures are finally 20 be
taken to establish sensible, permanent recruit
Ing, systetn. Men are not scarce in this country.
and the last call has demonstrated that by pron
er measures and liberal bounty any number
can be had: Men can be had in the Western
States for three hundred dollars. It is proposed
to offer five hundred dollars as permanent
bounty. This sum makes an allowance for the
various expenses of the recruit, or even those
who find him and bring him forward, and still
\ leaves a good margin for the benefit OF the &C.
crult or his family. It gives good sum, also
rs basis for the operations and activity Of that
large number of persons who will thus be in.
dpced to lend their energies to the good cause
: OF filling our armies. Recruiting will thus be-
come permanent business in the country with
ramitications in every city and village, and will
for the first time in the history of our war, be
effective and productive of great results.
Not only will this system enable the army TO
draw regularly and properly upon our own nop
ulation, but it will also tap for our benefit the
immense and discontented population of Eu-
rope.

Devastation IN the Valley.

Sheridan seems to have fully aud thorough
ly executed the orders of his master, &Grant,)
to destroy everything, and "make.the Valley
one barren waste" A correspondent of the
Richmond Examiner, writing from Early's
command, says:
I What Atilla and his vandss pcrpetrated in
the beautiful plains Of Italy havetsbe re-en-
acted here by Sheridianan and his miiiions. From
Mt. Sydney, ten miles East of Staunten, to
Leetowp, ten miles from Harper's Ferry, a
distance of about one hundred miles, it seems
to have been literally blasted by this bosom of
destruction in human form. Not mill is
known to be left upburned. Every burn has
been laid in ashes Every wbeait stack, every
bushel of wheat aud every hay-rick has been
consumed by the blazing torch horses, cattle,
hogs and sheep Carried off or destroyed, and
multitudes driven from their homes, helpless
wanderers among strangers, in >orrov and dis.
tress, by these Yankee feuds. Surely God
has some strange work to accomplish with US,
or among US, else fire from Heaven would con
sunle-these inexorable barbarians from off the
face of the earth. r.

The Yadkee Prisoners at Florence.

One of the State Reserves, writing from
"Camp Prison, Florence, s. G., October. Z"
to the Yorkviue Enquirer, gives the following
interesting account of the military prison there
and its inmates - an
Our men are called on to perform guard du
ty every other day and night, as there are a
large number of prisoners at this point, and
many more daily coming in from. Charleston,
distant but go miles by railroad, and Ander.
soneille, Georgia. sI
The prisoners are placed in an enclosure ar
ranged in regImensal order; this is made Of
split timbers FIVE or six inches ID thickness,
well. EMBEDDED in the, earth !; around This pali-
sading, enclosing some rtwenty acres, is fixed
the platform or walk for the sentinels, with
occasional projections, from which they can
,)ok over into the camps and keep sharp
watch on the movements Of the prisoners, in
order that the latter may have no,excuse for
approaching the palisadiDg, ditch 'is run
around the camp, about fifteen feet from it,
said to be like that of the Yankees at Hilton
Head. The man who attempts to cross it, af.
ter being once warned, is shot if the sentry's
eye falls on him, or without warning at light.
Night and day heavy guard is posted around,
and lines of seniriesswth artillery and cavalry
at convenient and important points, so escape
seems impossible.
The prisoners are divided into detachmeDts
of one hundred ,esch, under sergeauts of their
own appointment. The roll is called each
morning at 8 o'clock at the beating of the
drum each detachment falls into line in front
of its row of tents OF earthworbs, dresses up on
the sergeant, in files of four, when the Major
has them counted of by tue several Lieuten-
ants called on to assist him, who deem it BY
no means an agreeable employment, among so
much filth and vermin, though the place is
daily polced, and deep branch runs through
the entire camp they cook their own ratious,
which of course they complain of, however
plentiful they may be. They are not allowed
to communicate with any but officers, whom,
they often importupe for little fuyors, mostly
10 take the oath or be paroled, or for tobueco.
Tile Foreigners make many pfSesta,ions Of
their disinterestedness, while the Yankees,
most of whom were the denizens of the broth
els and purlieus of Northern cities, pretend so
believe our cause losing one, though they
curse the obstiuacy Of Butler in not effectiag
their exchange. Poor Devils they do not
see that one Confederate is worth half dozen
Of them, and hence their suferiugs While
writing, goodly number Of foreigners are
taking the oath, which they swallow with
avidity.
The prisoners pay little regard to their per,
soDal cleanliness as a natural consequence
much mortality prevails, ten deaths being
about the minimum of those daily occurring.
A hospital for the sick is outside of the stock
ade, " bere they receive every attention, aud
they are reranded when convalescent, but few
having died in it. They are mostly scantily
clothed, and unless provided by their govern.
nent will suffer greatly, when the cold wealth.
er sets in.
