SIXTH DISTRICT.
The New Enrolment.

Col. Jehries, acting assistant provost
marshal general for Maryland and Della

raj provost marshals to the act Of Congress
providing for the revision of the enroll.

at is desirable that the enrolment list
shall contain the names of all persons sub.
ject to draft in the district and on the
OTHER hand, that all persons not subject to
enrolment should at once be stricken off,
To this end you will confer with the 10.
cal authorities Of counties, towns, wards
and election districts, giving full instruc-
lions to your enrol!ers, deputies and spe.
cial officers, and bringing to the attention
Of, the people the fact that it is to their in.
terest to see that every man liable under
the law to perform military duty is enroll.
ed, because the greater the number to be
drawn from, the less chance that any par.
ticular individual will BE- drawn. On the
other hand, you will impress upon them
the Importance of having the names Of
those improperly enrolled stricken from
the list, because the quotas are based upon
the number enrolled, and an excess OF
names increases the quota" ,... L.

SUPPRESSION OF A NEWSPAPER BY
THE MILITARY AUTHORITIES. Shortly
after 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, Mr..
William H. Nelson, proprietor of the Euen-
ing Transcript, of this city, received an
order from General Wallace, Commander
of the Middle Department, directing that
tho publication of the paper cease at once,
and adding that any further issue of it
would subject the Office to seizure and
those persons connected with it to arrest.
The order, it is scarcely necessary to add,
was complied with. The cause of this

SUBSTITUTES AND CoMMuTATIoN.--
Drafted men who pay over to the govern
ment $500 to commute their services, in
stead of hiring substitutes, fail to do the
best thing they could, under the eircum-
stances, for either themselves or the gov
ernment We presume the communication
is generally paid because it is the most
ready way Of disposing Of the business
but many no doubt, do il under the i'm
preston that the payment Of the money to
the government will exempt them from
another draft as long as the procuration of
a substitute would. But the 5th section
Of the law provides ''that any person draft.
cd into the military service of tho United
States may, before the time fixed for bis
appearance for duty at the draft reudes-
vous, furnish an acceptable substitutes"
and that 'sif such substitute" is not liable
to draft, the person furnishing him shall
be exempt from draft during the time for
which such substitute is not liable to draft,
not exceeding the term for which he was
drafted" Therefore, If drafted maA,
with his $500 can procure an alien, o mi.
nor or man over As years of age as a
substitute, he will be exempt from further
drafts for three years; while the payment
Of $500 to the government will only ex-
empt until the next call for more soldiers.
A man might we'll afford to pay so or
$lO0 more, in order to avoid another draft;
but as government and local bounties are
not now in the market recruits can, we
understand, DO readily obtained for $500.
And as the government wants men worse
than money, this is an additional consid-
Grafton for procuring substitutes. Still
another consideration is, that the furnish
ing recruits will lessen the probability Of
another draft. We commend these facts
to the serious reflection of drafted men,

General Buffers Plan for Treating
Rebel Prisoners.


A gentleman who recently visited Gen. But
lcr's Department to inspect tho condition
of the freedmen and for other purposes,
furnishes us with an interesting statement
with reference to the policy that general
will probably pursue in the matter cf ,ho
exchange OF prisoners.
General Butler, it is TO bo presumed, il
thoroughly in earnest in the work he has
undertaken toaccomplsh, to and having abso-
iutc authority, will adopt dccided measures,
taking pains, however, 10 inform himself
on all tho points involved, in order that no
inidstico may DO done.
His first step, il ia believed, will bo to
select from the 2s,OOO prisoners who will
bo sent to his Department u certain num-
ber of rebels, whom he will turn into some
open place, of course under proper guard
whore they will have an opportunity to ac-
quirc the experience with which our pris.
oncrs on Belle Island have been 30 long fa
miliar.
tbs believed, also, that all the rebels W Ill
he deprived of ccilec. with which they hav q
boen heretofore supplied; and should they
persist in dealing out insufficient food to tho
Union soldiers in their hands General But
Ter will without doubt diminish the raticns
of all the prisoners placed under his control
II IN not llhpoSSlbIO tnat ion, Butter may
have an interview. before retaliatory meas
urcs arc finally adopted, with Mr. Hatch
who now acts as the rebol Commissioner,
or with Judge Ould, or both In a recent
interview at City Point with Mr.. C. Clement
Barclay, of Philadelphia, who visited tho
point on his own responsibility, Mr.. Hatch
admitted that or prisoners had not been
treated as humanity would have dictated,
and actually shed tears IA the conduct OF
tho rebel authorities was commented upon
| 10y Mr. Barclay
1t is hoped by some that the rebel Gov.
crhmont will yet abandon the position it
has No obstiuately held; but the gentleman
from whom these facts were gathered is
not inclined to this conviction, believing, on
the contrary, that our people should pre-
pare themselves for the protrncted confne
mont of all the prisoners now in the rebel
hands.
