From the Lancaster IntelligencerI
The Depletion of Our Population

In many os the poorer and more sparse
ly settled rual districts Of this State the
present merciless conscription is being
most sev erely felt. Former calls for vol
unteers, and preceding drafts, have so
thinned out the able-bodied male popula-
ton that in some counties there is Il
great scarcity ofagricultural labors. Dur
ing the coming season the want Of strong
arms 10 mn tho seil will ha sauarely folt
Our country exchanges indicate clearly
the great distress that prevails already,
and deplore the future mischiefs that
must inevitably follow.
The Ebensburg Democrat says:
"This dynasty has laid q heavy hand on
our fiourishing county. Before this ad-
ministralion got their claws on our peo-
pie, there were few communities that
were moro flourishing than Cambria ooun-
ty. Contentment, competence and com
fort were universally enjoyed, north,
south, east and west. The despoi lers
came and first took all the money tha.
could be raised in all the rursl districts
for commulation. They gobtled up
thousands of dollars earned and saved by
the energy, industry and economy Of our
population. When that fund was exhaus.
ted they dragged or hunted away, the Wig
orous part of our population, SO that
there are not enough, nor half enough,
men left TO till the soil. What crops will
be planted this season will be put in by
women and children, many OF the farms
| will be entirely vacant with none TO cul
tivate or take care of them perhaps
some aged man or cripple may hobble
about and view the waste now Ieryadinl
his once beloved home. Still they call
for four hundred and seventeen more
men for this instalment from the rural
townships. Iii is calling spirits from The
vasty deep-they are not here many o
them are gone to their Last reckoning
! and have left their bones bleaching or
Southern soil. When the nations ar,
called to account, and the rulers TO Judge
ment," there may Abraham Lincolr
meet them face to face, and give true
account Of tAe deeds done in this country
for last his i6ke. will have bsen told tina
time"
What is said Of Cambria county is tru,
cf many other sections Of this State. Tn,
woes Of this war are pressing most heavil.
upon such sections rs are making h,
money out of it. Our large cities enc
towns are enjoying a..fctitious prosperity
but it is at the expense OF other sections
of ihe State and country.

Peace Rumors.

In regard TO the latest peace rumors,
the Washington Chronicle OF yesterday re-
marks:
"The rumor which is retaied by the
cossips OF tho town, OF the meeting OF
President Lincoln and Gems. Grant, Sher-
man. Meade, Ord and Sheridan, on board
the steamer River Queen, is undoubtedly
correct; but we can assure our readers
that the result of the conference is not
known. The statement that Gen. Lee
had asked for n conference with General
Grant is entirely without foundation
That great events are impending, there
can be no doubt.
The Itehliqencer has The following on
the same subject:
"The protracted absence OF the Presi-
dent, at or near the seat Of hostllities, IS
generally interpreted as harbinger OF
an early pacific salution of the complica-
/ tiors that civil war has precipilated, with
all its woes. The fact, as received in we'll
/ informed quarters, that General Sherman
! has been in the councils at the front,
/ gives assurance that the oft-repeated
views of that great soldier and civilian as
TO the interests OF the Southern people
may take practical form and effect. More
over, all peace rumors, reports and wish
es have been strongly fortified by the al
| legged fact that Secretary Seward lett the
city at late hour yesterday for the front. -
The New York Tribune, referring to the
rumors, remarks:
That Mr.. Lincoln departed for the
james in the hope that he might bring
peace with him on his return, we are as
well assured as il he had told us so and
that his remaining with Gen. Grant alter
/ his companions had left for Washington
was dictated by public considerations, is
too palpable to be doubted. We write
uniformed as to the truth or bnselessness
of the specific rumoIs of yesterday that q
con ference was then proceeding between
/ the President and General Grant on our
side, and Jefferson Davis and Gen. Lee on
! the other, and assume that it was prema-
ture il not wholly unfouuded. But that
/ the President will not return to Washing
ton without having satisfied himself, no
matter how informally, that the master
spirits at Richmond are or are not ready
/ to accept peace on the basis Of reunion,
we hold beyond question"

kidnapping White Men.

Under the false plea that free negroes
were sometimes carried into slavery, the
States passed laws against kidnapping, of
the most stringent character. Yet hun
dreds OF men are thus victimized and the
States takes no action, the press is silent
the police of one great city is blind. The
New York Sun says;
KIDNAPPING REcRUIrs.- Our police re-
cords show that the crime of coercin g
men into the service Of the government
is alarmingly on the increase. The enor-
nous bounties offer an inducement to
wicked and designing men to seek after
ignorant victims, whom they first ntoxi-
cate and then enlist into the army, sub
robbing them of their bounty
money. Numerous instances have come
to our knowledge where government Off
cials are concerned in these outrages upon
simple minded men which should be pre-
vented by those in authority. In addi.
tion we have Information that large
gang of rutlians are in the habit of work
ing together for the purpose of decoying
and plundering or kidnapping, and aciu.
ally selling men into the army and navy,

ed, they are beaten into acquiescence, and
supplied with liquor. In several instan.
ces death has ensued after the recruit was
mustered in. Occasionally mbu dies
and a coronor's verdict reports that "thC
deceased came to his death from injuries
received at the hands of some unknown
person" These outrages are usually com
mitted in some low haunt Of vice. tho in.
mates Of which are brutalzed by frequent
occurrences of this kind, and if compro
missed in an ofiray, are ready TO swear tina

by other men who make their escape.

TnR JENNINGS EsrArE'-The most of our
readers have undoubtedly heard, at some
time or other, that large property in
England, estimated at several million
pounds sterling, known as the Jennings
estate, has been claimed by the American
heirs, descendants Of the brother and sis
ter of the English Jennings, the former
Of which settled in Virginia and the latter
in New Hampshire. The case has been
in the English Chsncery Court for many
years, aud the American heirs have spent
considerable sums of money in proSecu-
ting their claim to the estate, until at last,
as we are informed by QUO of the heirs,
they have obtained a Judgment in their
favor. The estate will be very hand

make respectable figure in the list oi

ssDr A very pretty contest isgoing on
between the editors of the Erie Dispatch
and the Elk county Adrocate. The for
mer imagines that Erie county embraces
the whole of the 10th Congressional dis
trict-whch is logical enough with all
those who think that Democrats have no
rights which the present Administration
ought to respect-and wants the head
quarters of the Provost Marshal removed
TO Erie city while the latter contends
vaorously for its remaining at Ridgvay.
OF course cur RidgHay friend is right
But that is Of small consequence. If the
"regning powers" once learn that the re-
moval of the Headquarters to Erie would
be made inconvenient to the Democrats
of the district, it is more than likely it
will be done instanter, and our friend Of
tho AdUOcatc may just as well save his
breath TO cool his broth.
