CONSUMPTION North and South.

The day rapidly approaches when new
draft is to fill up our ranks, and put all
things in order for an overwhelming spring
campaign We regret that a greater activ-
ity in volunteering has not rendered this
draft unnecessary; but the main thing at
ter all is to get the men, and do the work.
And to this, there should be no let OF hin
drance. We have an ineXhaustibIe number
from which to draw; the great masses of
our people are in accord upon this matter
our. successes have rendered the ultimate is
sue a certain one; and nothing seems to us
wanting but united and determined effort.
In the meantime. amid tremOrS and des-
pair the Rebels are not idle; the cOnscrip-
ton they are making everywhere Is mcrci-
less and exhaustive We have all wonder
ed in times past how they have supported
an army without money and without sup
plies. Let us not heed those who tell us
now that they cannot subsist an army
They will force into the ranks every man
they can kidnap, and they will, on half IA
tiOns, if necessary, make one more despe-
rate effort When that fails we expect a
collapse; but in order to insure their fail
ure let us continue vigorous preparations.
The re-enistment Of old regiments is an adj
mirablc sign and must scare the enemy
greatly, but IN the CONSUMPTION soon to take
place we see the great means by which We
are to reinforce ow armies, and bring about
the collapse speedily.
The refusal of the European sovereigns
to meet NAPOLEON in council; the vigorous
nrming to which we see many OF them re
sorting the declaration of the French Sena-
tor, Marquis de BoissY, that the complica-
ton in Europe is due to the inrigues of
England, mercantile power, shop-leepers
he means, perfdious and disloyal, which
has always desired the ruin of France" all
lead us to believe that Europe is going to
let us alone and that, with 4 rapid and sue
cesstul conscription. rc-enlisments, and per
fected organization, We shall settle our
troubles, if not within ninety days" at least
during the year Of grace 1864, new 0nHgS
