We clip the following from the New
York Times:
Observant gentlemen who have recent
ly travelled extenively through the States
Of the late Southern Confedsraey, say
that men are much more abundant there
than they had anticipated. The able
bodied male population are BY no means
killed off by the war. High officers Of
the Confederate army say that JEFF Davis
told the truth literelly last winter when
he proclaimed in public speech in Geor-
gia that two.t thirds Of the Socthern con-
scripts had deserted from his army. The
rebel Chief declared that this immense
proportion of his troops we're absent from
the ranks without leave; in other words,
they had escaped to their homes, and
were determined to stay at home. The
Confederate military authorities could not
spare from active duty the heavy details
of men and officers that would have been
required to traverss the vast aud thinly
settled regions of the South for the pur-
pose of hunting up and hunting down
these fugitives. And consequently tens
of thousands aud hundreds Of thousands
of men were enabled to escape = hated
service, though many Of them had from
time 10 time to conceal themselves, or re-
sort to evasion or flight.
The Southern Confederacy, at the be-
ginning of this year, had about two hun
dred thoussnd troops actually in it's SER
vice. These we're drawn from . popula-
tion of about six millions, including, 70
some extent, the Border States. Nov,
allowing one-tenth of population = e.
pable Of bearing arms, e large proportion
for the South) we would have six hun
dred thousand men, in all, fit for military
duty. Two.thirds Of these. or four hun-
dred thousand men, according to the esti-
mate of JEFF. Davis, we're at their homes
10 their respective States, evading or rs-
fusing military service; and BY the recent
disbandment of the armies of Leo, John
stoD, and Taylor, one hundred thossaAd
more able bodied men have bsen seD'
home, making quite half : million nov i

The English Tory Press, like the sym
pathising Ccpperhesd Press OF this coun.
try. are very much opposed to the ides d
punishipg the sristocratic leaders Of the
rebellion for treason. This was to Be- az.
pected; the rebels have had their hands
held up during the war on the one ide
by ths Eagiish arstocnsy alaY On the
other By the Copperhead leaders Of the
North, aad it is but natural that The
unison OF feeling should continue nov
that the war is over and prompt them to
render such sympathy and aid as is in
their power 70 shield the authors and
lsadsn Of the rebellion from punhhment
for the crime of treason against the coan-
try. Hence, the leading Copper6sad pa
pers Of Iowa insist that the concession Of
belligerent rights to rebels in arms exslts
treason above the Constitution and multi.
fies the provisions Of law for their punish
ment; while their English friends insist
that the illustrious leaders Of the South
should suffer no further penalty than the
modification of defeat in q just cause.
