THE DRAFT'-Gov. Morgan and Governor

crniting under the new call, report that three

will have filed their quotas before the APP

be made up by draft New England will

the people earnest and invincible in their re.
solve to stand by their Government in this
hour of its trial. Anxious s'they may and
must be for Peace, they will accept no Peace
that dismcmbcrs or degrades the Republic
no Peace that can be claimed as a triumph
for conspiracy and rebellion On the CON
trary they propose to fight it out on this
line in the confident assurance that Peace
will come sooner and stay longer if they up
hold and strengthen their Government than
if they pusillanimously desert and allow
traitors to destroy it. We believe the Gov
ernors have since gone southwark or west,

Information that reaches us from various
quarters jnstihes our conviction that. in ad.

have already passed muster. or be ready for

of the draft by reason of having filled their
quotas by townships, wards. cities, counties

- 1t is said that the casualties in the Fifth
Corps during the actions of the 18th. 18th
and Dist of August, have been greatly ex-
aggerated 1t is now definitely ascertained
that they do not exceed three thousand
eight hundred, and as stragglers and others
still continue to come in, and the sick are
not all accounted for, it is not believed that
the aggregate loss in all these engagements
will exceed thirty-fve hundred. The loss
of the I'd Corps in Thursdays fight will not
exceed an aggregate of fifteen hundred, ac-
cording to the official statement, and it is
believed that when all who are within our
lines report, twelve hundred will cover the
entire loss.

the public, whose patronage | have so long
enjoyed, | take this method of denying the
truthtulness of the charge above mention-
ed Whilst cold King Cole Of pious mem
DRY, was considered a Jolly old soul, it does
not follow that all the Coles-that though
many of them may be Jolly souls-are racers
But that they are, to a man, sober and in
dustrious citizens of the communities in
which they live I'm proof whereof the pub.

commodated, for cash. with fashionable tail

EIhton, Sep. 3, 1864. A. c. COLE.
Before the article to which Mr.. C. refers
was permitted to be inserted, we had the
positive assurance that Mr.. Cole did say he
would run Mr.. Shockly for the sum men
toned above. We are real y sorry that the
''sport anticipated on the occasion" should
thus be knocked into ''pi," by Altred's re-
fuSal to toe the mark. We suggest the pro-
priety Of his sticking to his word, and let US
have the race this evening.
