IMPoRTAET DECISION IN REGARD TO THF
DsAFT.---Whsn the draft was ordered in this
district 1t was supPOseu ny tue rrUvOSt Mar
shall that fifty per cent. would be added to
the deficiency in each ward and township
to cover exemptions, 60, and it WSs an
nounced that such would be the case. An
examination of the law, however, shows that
this is not correct. Each ward and township
will be drafted only for the number which it
is deficient. A second draft will then be or
dered, to cover exemptions, in all wards and
townships Wbers exemptions have been
made.
The draft will commence, as announced,
on Saturday morning next at nine o'clock,
at the Provost Msrshal's Office, No. 81 Bank
street, beginning with the township of Frank
lin, Summit coanty.

PROBATE CoURT.-Two members Of the
Twsnty-ninth Regiment were yesterday
brought before Judge TiIden on q writ of
habeas corpus, addressed to their company Of
fcsrs. Their names are Augustus stoll and
Harvey C. Lsughlin, the former belonging
to Captain Molyneaux's, the latter to Cap
tain EnswOrth's company. Their parents
claimed their discharge on the ground that
they we're under age at the time of enlist
ment, and enlisted without the consent of
their parents. VIM. Hsisley, Esq, who aP-
peared as counsel for Stoll, also claimed that
the Presidan4s proclamation suspending the
writ Of babeas corpus in military cases did
not apply here, as in this case the military
service wss properly due to the State, and
not to the Federal Government. Judge Til
den, on hearing the case, discharged Stoll.
We did not learn the disposition Of Laugh
Inns case, but presume that it was similar to
the first.

A Republican estimate OF Gen. Bank,

We copy the following from the New Orleans
correspondence of the Cincinnati Commercial.
all administration Republican paper The writer
gives Republican view of the military abilities
of Gen. BANKS and his official integrity. If a
Democratic paper had said the same thing. no
matter with how much justice, i. would have been
pronounced copperhead prejudice and an attempt
to embarrass the government. Says the Com

Running the Machine

When Mr.. Lincoln was inaugurated President
he found the affairs of the nation IN deplOrab!s
condition. and be was known to have SAID that
he intended To run the machine ~ he found IT,
and he run it with vengence Instead of ad
Justlng the machine. he put OF extra steam
seeming not 10 care for consequences
For time the machine was kept in motion
but soon all was chaos As the machine now
stands, II may be said the boiler Is leaking. th.
engine without governor. the master wheel
cracked. the shafting out of line COS. wheel.
broken. belts of the pullies, and screws without
number losse: and all these mishaps have oc.
Cured for the want of little adjusting aud oil
ing in the beginning
II rs but reasonable TO suppose that the Presi.

sickness, plague, discord. var. murder. deceit

The war News.

II i somewhat strange that from the CON-
mencement Of General GRAST's advance towards
Richmond. greenbacks have steadily declined IN
value. Notwithstanding the favorable reports
from the Potomac Army, on Saturday gold adj
vanced TO 1919.
This anomaly in monetary affairs the Republi-
can fnanciers attribute to the redundancy Of pa
per CURRENCY. and they predict that gold will com
mand a still higher price. even II GRASr's cam
pagn is entirely successful. unless some measures
are adopted te restrain and cut down the issue OF
paper legal tenders ard bank promises TO pay.
The reports. unofficial from the Army Of The
Potomac continue to be favorable. IL is again
stated that Gen LEE Il sick in Richmond. and
we are told this comes through rebes sources OF
information. II so. il will prove -srious draw
back to the rebel cause. No General ever had
the confidence Of bis troops in a greater degree
and deservedIy so too, for he has Exhibited
throughout the war the highest qualities Of a
great commander.
The people have been so often wilfully and
grossly deceived by Geographic reports that even
truthful statements will now be questioned
There can be no doubt but terrible struggle
is going on between the Federal and Rebel ar
mics before Richmond. War is a game o.
chance as we'll as of science and skill. and q
very little matter apparently may decide the con
troversy. or at least produce the decisive result
We have no doubt that few days will de
termine the ability of General GRANT, for tn,
struggle cannot long continue upon its presen
scale without determining that problem.
1t is stated that Gen. Fremont has resigned
bis commission and that his resignation has beer
accepted by the President.
Gen. BUELL. has also resigned his commission
