A GRAND ARMY AND GRAND CAMPAIGN
WITHOUT ENFORCING THE DRAFT.-An ac-
counts from our different armies concur in
stating as a fact that the three years men,
whose terms are expiring, are re-enlisting by
companies, regiments and brigades; and the
probability is that three-fourths Of them will
re-enlist for the war. The munifcent propo-
sitions of the Government to induce them TO
do so are having highly successful effect on
all our troops in the field. The object Of the
last Presidential proclamation in relation to
the enforcement Of the draft on the 9th Of
January next, in such places where the quo
tas had not been filed BY volunteering, was
to meet the contingency Of the three years
men in the field refusing to serve after their
time expired. The contrary being the case,
for, there will probably be no necessity for
enforcing the draft to fill up the deficiencies
in the quotas. Without resorting to the draft
we shall have by spring magnificent army
Of tried veterans Of million men, including
one hundred thousand cavalry, Injured 10
the hardships of camp life, accustomed to the
country they are occupying, or in which they
are fighting, acclimated, feyer-proof, and
courageous and sturdy as ever warriors were.
The volunteers lately raised may gil Whatever
gaps may have occurred in the several regi-
ments through the casualties Of the war, and
altogether, they will present as fine and grand
an army as ever entered field Of battle.
With such splendid army, and with such
brave, tried and successful commanders as
Generals Grant, Banks, Thomas, Rosecrans,
Foster, Averill in Western Virginia, and a
host of others, what may notthe country and
the world expect will follow the next cam
