The whole country seems 10 be advertised

nents of personal properly and real estate
are TO be seen more plenty than ever be
fore. Our people are selling of their prop
erty for various purposes some TO enable
themselves TO buy their exemption by put
ting in substitutes, others to put themselves
in such position as to flee the country in
case the draft reaches them. This is ter
rible Stale of affairs, when We see our ciIi
zens shaping themselves to avoid a civil
war which is going on Between the Nouh
aud South. Fhey DO no: wish TO be en-
gagged in it-they wish to have no part nor
lot in This unholy war, and to escape ii they
are abandoning their business and sacrifice
ing their properly. The present draft,
which We were told last fall would not take
place if LINcoLN was reelected, is disor-
ganzing and disrupung the whole country.
Its effects are most keenly felt in every fam
lily circle throughout the whole North. The
boards while the wheel OF death is in oper-
alton are truly hesrt-rending. il is imros-
si5e for the pen to depict them and only
TO think of four years more of a continual
