A Coop IND1cAT1os.-We noticed the sale
of several barrels of cane and Sorghum Syrup
Yesterday, at, auction, says the Columbus
Times, a. from SIS SO to. $3.50 per gallon.
The same article has been selling from $l2
to $50 ip the market for long time, aud it
affords US no little pleasure to chronicle the

is likely 10 Le very large, ard that prices

inr picture of Abraham Lincoln:

gentleman Of Lincoln, and nothing could
probably induce him to'stsy N such society

To tile Editor file Erensiner:
SRI beg leave to expose, throughSyour
popular columns, anabuse whichhas SO farpass:
ed unobserved, or, at least, unheeded, and
which, I thing, demands investigation.
Congress has used every possible lever to
recruit our armies; the blind and the lame
and the halt, as well as the sound and soie-
bodied, have been gathered from every cor
ner of our young country, and those who
would not enlist voluntarily have been con-
scripted.s For the purpose of carrying the
sweeping conscription law into effect spe-
cial bureau was organized, and it was pre-
suppos ed that disabled men would be assign
ed to duty as enrolling officers and their sub
ordina, ,es.- Eat, Mr.. Editor, in manyinstances
1t has been otherwise. / beg1eaye. to state
that have witnessed, on several occasions,
disabled soldiers dragged up before CON
. script rboard;by a.conscript guard who were
themselves stout and able-bodied men, and
had, perhaps, never heard but very dis
tant aboomins Of the guns if at al. 1t is
daily occurrence to see or hear strong,

"rheumatiz' orr misery inthe back" "-Could
not these men be sent to-. Mls' Bob" and
their vacancies be filed with officers and

where anything like parliality has been ex-

to arigid examination by medical board iof
