The following is the plan adopted TO
relieve the city and county from The

As the quota Of the several townships
has not yet been assigned, the number
Of men subject 10 the draft and the
quota Of each township are only a<ti-
mates. but IL not correct, serve equally
as veil in explaining the plan.
The bounty fund is made up Of city
appropriation, county appropriation, and
thirty dollars each from every man in
the county subject to the draft; and as
tie people of the several townships pay
no part Of the taxes from which the city
appropriation is derived, further sum
is required from each township, in pro
portion to the quota OF such township,
to make the several townships and the
city equal contributors to the fund.
Estimating the quota Of the city At 222

Estimating the quota of the county 1t
