j Why the Draft has been a Failure
A draft for about 170,000 men was or-
dered last sprint; in the twelve Eastern
states, and the past six months has been
consumed in the work of selecting offi
cers, making an enrollment, drawing the
cpota of men from each district, bring
ing them before Examining Surgeons,
and forwarding those obtained to the
old regiments in the field. It is now
past the middle of October, and the draft
is hardly completed. The draft has
proven a lamentable failure. It is use
less to disguise the truth, and wrong to
conceal it from the people. We repeat,
the draft isja failure. It has yielded less
than 35,000 men conscripts and sub
stitutes all told and the commutation
money received does not represent 20,
000 more, and this is all that a draft of
250,000 names has produced. The En
rollment Act directs that 50 per cent,
more names shall be drawn than men re
quired, in order to cover those who may
be exempted from physical disability and
other causes. But astonishing to tell,
the exemptions amount to nearly seven
eights of the names drawn! Not
more than thirteen men of every hun
dred have been held to serve, in person
or by substitute. And this draft has
been made from the young men, between
the ages of twenty live and thirty-five,
Twice as many old soldiers were dis
charged during the summer by reason of
expiration of term of service, as were
procured by the draft. The Potomac
army is consequently dangerously re
duced. Lee now feels kimself superior
to what remains after the detachment of
two army corps to reinforce Kosecrans,
and has assumed the offensive, notwith
standing he has sent more men to Bragg
than Meade has to Rosecrans. The re
bel conscription has swept into the Con
federate ranks every man able to hobble
undera knapsack, and the result is, that
that they confront the armies of
of the Potomac and Cumberland in su
perior force, and press them back. The
inaction of tlje Potomac army since Get
tysburg, is due to the failure of the draft
to procure men.
The friends of the Administration have
had to resist and endure all the obloquy
and unpopularity of the draft, and to de
fend and enforce it. And now they dis
cover that it has been almost barren of
results.
Why has the draft produced so few
soldie.s? We can answer the question.
The War Department appointed Prof.
Leiber to frame a list of causes for ex-
o in it , !-- .. j . . .. ......, of JQamuiIii-
ing Boards. The learned professor ex
ercised his profound research to discover
diseases, ailment's, and ills that flesh is
heir to, that would ,form pretexts for
granting certificates of exemption. He
succeeded in produciug a catalogue of
enormous length, aud susceptible of
abuse. He opened a hole as wide as a
barn door, through which two hundred
thousand drafted men marched out in
double file. He established a standard
of physical perfection so high that only
here anal there a man was found equal
j to it. it was no trouble lor tne soundest
I and ablest bodied men to obtain certifi
cates of exemption from the Examining
Board. There are very few perfectly
; sound men in civilized countries men
free from all trace of disease, and if a
j conscript possessed any symptom of ail
j ment he could easily magnify it, and by
; simulation, personal influence or bribe-
ry induce the Examining Surgeons to
grant him a certificate of exemption.
; But no matter how it was done, there
; stands the ugly fact as prominent as the
rock of Gibraltar, that less than one
' eighth of t he conscripts were held to ser
; vice. It will not do to sav that the mass
i of them paid their $300, because it is j
not true. The number who paid is far
j less than the number who serve in per
! son or sent substitutes.
When we first saw Lieber's list of
causes for exemption we warned the I
I Secretary of War that the draft would be j
a failure. But no heed was paid to it, j
: and no modification was made, and now I
.u , t. : j .
occ me muuciras. a,, 1S proposea 10
draft again; bat it will be a " water- j
haul" unless Lieber's instructions are '
thrown away. We believe that if the I
President should order a conscription of
iue enure eurouea mtiuia Detween twen
ty and forty- five, that it would scarcely j
produce two hundred thousand men. j
The heaviest blow yet struck at the Na-1
tional cause is Lieber's hundred pretext
for exemption. It is far more danger- j
ous than Lee's or Bragg's rebels, as it
practically prevents the recruiting of j
our armies. There is only one safe and
proper - code of instructions for examin- ;
: ing surgeons, and that is to hold every j
conscript who is not manifestly incapa- j
I bie of bearing arms. Let the con- j
I scripts be examined on general princi- '
j pies. Abundance of them, even then, '
I fit to be soldiers, will slip through and '
i escape, on one pretext or another. But j
! the whole number held will bear a re- i
, spectable proportion to the whole num-
! ber drafted. Had the present draft been '
conducted on this principle, it would
i have yielded four times as many soldiers
i and four times as much money to pay in
! bounties to volunteers, and our Potomac
j army, after reinforcing Rosecrans, would !
i still have been strong enough to over- j
! whelm the nnnv of Lee. There is no '
calculating the injury that has been done
totg o the Union by the adop- ;
tion of Lieber s catalogue of exemptions, ;

Tun Indianapolis Journal of Thurs
day says recruiting is going on beyond
expectation both for old and new regi
ments. Yesterday a large number were
enlisted at Military Headquarters for the
13th battery, 22d and 32d regiments.
Several sergeants of old regiments have
been promoted to Second Lieutenants to
recruit for new regiments.
An engine, on the Lafayette Railroad,
on" Tuesday, ran into another train in a
curve beyond Lebanon, damaging the
end car, and slightly bruising two sol
diers. Mb. T. D. Hassey, of Westfield, Ham
ilton county, was robbed at the Theatre,
in Indianapolis, Monday night of $500.
Next time he will keep one eye on the

A correspondent, of the Iedianapolis
Journal, who went to Memphis in charge
of a squad of fifty soldiers of different
regiments, writes us under date of Oct.
17th that; the " boys" conducted them
selves with that order and discipline
which is characteristic of all our 'J Ho
sier boys. " He says: "we went from
Cairo to Memphis on steamer Belle Cre
ole in nine days. She proved herself
a fast steamer ; the greater part of the
time she was fast on a sand bar, or else
lied fast to shore for fear of running on
one; the balance of the time she was
wooding, so that we did not run any. If
she had been turned loose, I think she
would have made the trip . sooner. The
trip cost the Government not less than
$1,500, in loss of time, fuel and extor
tionate wages of Captain and crew.
Such are theGovernments peculators and
swindlers. "
Ixciokxt of the Hasch. The Center
ville True Republican has been favored
with the diary of Cap't Leeson, 5th Indi
ana cavalry, kept for the perusal of his
wife. He tells a funny story that hap
pened in a little town in East Tennessee,
as follows:
" While at breakfast here there was to
me an amusing incident took place,
which I must give toyou bru-tly. It was
. frcacai expression amrmg ihtr ladies
along the road, ' What pretty men how
nice they look oh, how I love them;'
and occasionally one would say, 1 How
sweet they look.' One pretty (rood-looking,
stout, hearty girl, said, ' What sweet
looking men J would give tweuty-fH'e
cents to kiss one.' I told her I would
give her fifty cents if she would kiss that
one pointing -to ' L'trly Joe.' At him
she bounced, and he commenced pushing
her away, and in put another girl, but he
was about to be too hard for them both,
when one of the men caught ..round him
and hell his hands, and instantly smack !
smack! they both took him. Oh, you
ought to have seen his face. After
laughing till I was sore, I paid the fifty
cents."
A Curiosity. One of the masons nt
the West Harrisburr market house, in
dressing one of the stones of which the
building is constructed, found a large i
petrified rattlesnake in the inside. The j
snake is iu a most wonderful state of,
preservation. The scales are perfect.
The backbone is clearly defined, and it
is one of the most interesting specimens
of petrification probably ever discovered.
