GOverment for ..1 . 8.5 per day, und the barge

name of Hall, who bad a moncooly bi'llie
busihess, under the direction Of 'Col. Bel
ger, Assts ant Quar,ter-Mastei . -Gen. and
'John Tackler, Assistant Secretiry of 'War.'
When it is borne in ::mind that two hun
dred and srenty-four.vessels were chartered
by this M 11,71 Hall, some idea may - be gain=
of the fearful amount of whicl the TGov
erlitnent has been plundered by his °pp
rations. -•' . ' • '.! ..
1 • ,
The plans Operandi wa&-this:4--Hall, as
we have'said, was a i" middle Itnan,". and
through - the action. of Mr. Tucker 'and
Colonel Belger, had a monePoly of the bu
siness of, chartering Vesselg at Baltimore:
Isrobody iwhO had even a coal boat to-hire
could get access. to the .Governinent offi
cers except through bird. He- was the
agent of the' Unitebi States, elected the
vessels, and fixed- their-prices.. At the'
same time he was the agent Of those :who
owned the vessels; some
,of them being
Jiis awn;, - 420. other& having been ;bought
lip by his creature& In every case he
charged, a commission rangihg from five 1
to twelve'-per cent. pn the grass earnings
of every vessel Oiattered..•Of course the
higher the rate the more this Carafnlagene
of the Government was enabled to° pock
et. Thus in the case of the steamer Cecil,
chartered of 'Capt. Rice, although the yes;
sel - was offered.atty dollars a day, Hall
hired her at bevent -five dollars, and be
fore the bargain : ti n mm raised
the price to the 'asimishrnent of 'the Cap
tain to eighty dolla4.aper day. This scan
dalous, feature ap.p,ears.in. every trans*
tion. ' An agent of the GOvemment rais ,
ing the.rates on his own principle-to ruin =
bus pricesithat he Might .get-higher
com
missions: Here again, we must remind
the reader that this , man Hall, who was,
the confidential agent of Colonel.. Belger4
and - mt. Tucker, 'Chartered two
,hundredl
and .sekeityloitr.vessels.. . . -•- .
~- Baltimore, however, had .not ataorkopo l :
ly .of,this,-gir tiorado'? to the
owners ttf sers,.haxges and tugs,. and
the Ineky &t es wild acted as agents i'o•
the Government. The Committ'eeextend:
ed - their-investigations to the , -Delaware,
and on our , river they found the same sys
tem' of plundet* prevailing -to the 'same
fearful extent. Let our readers-look and
be amazed at the prices that were paid
out of, their pockets for some'of the Worn
out old. hulks, formerly's() familiar to their
eyes. Herti - also we had agente.
also we have the sorrr spectacle of men '
_acting' for - the •peOple, and at the same
time ac in-gJor_, thpmelves !-R, fixing enor
mous rates ;upon their c iwn i vessels, and all,
Ntoo, under the garb Of 'exalted patriotism..
To show the-utterly! - reckless -and- dis=-
graceful character . the Baltimore open
rations, we invite attention to 'the fact
that in_one,cyse,a, vessel in' he, service of
the government, at the exorbitant , rate Of
$450 -per, day, was en - gaged, in running on
excursion trips for the.' benefit of her own
ers; that in another a I vessel Waifitted up
With i bunkers; at government expellee, to
accommodate the private freight of some
of her owners, who Were at the same time
sutlers in the army„ one of whom made
0400 in one trip ;
.that instill other cases
the goVernment,tugs •were used by their
owners to tow private vessels_for pay.;
that 'in a large number of oases the mg*,
rable old hulks that , were chartered at.
such senormous prices were so fat gone
that they had to be fitted up at an 'expense
equal to
_their original cost, and that sllch
,repairs were made at the public expense.
Is there another' instance in history of a
•
nation struggling for bfe being so heart
lessly and shamefully robbed by its own
• •
trusted citizens? ' -
The whole Report is reeking with ex
posed enormities.' It is impossible to es- 1
tunate the plunder. Millions will be re
quired ' l to cover it.:_ The Committee cens
ure some high officials—they recommend
court-martials for another—and they de
mandyhat, the - public voice should echo
in thunder-tones, that such ill-gotten gains
shall be disgorged. That word "DI sconoe
should, be the - universal cry, until justice
is done the public treamty,:and then it
should be seen whether criminal 'indict

The Conscription Bill.
-This bill alreadYpassed the Se'nate, -is.
now before the Reuse, or rather is in the
handsj of the Military tOniniittee.• They.
will, It. is said, object to-,pone of its pro-
VisionS, but will urge its passage without
reference. The main features of this bill
are based .upon thee - foreign system, but
'modified considerably by the present
.A brief analysis will present the
following . points :
Premising a Statement of the existing
condition of things in the, country, it de
clareS all able-bodied citizens and foreign
ers who hay.e_declared their intention to
beconie citizens, between twentS , and for,
ty-five; ll as liable to the conscription. ' It
divides such into twe classes, 'viz.: those
between twenty and thirty-five in the first
class; and all unmarried pet sons between
thirty-five,. and forty-five in the second;
the first class being exhausted before the
second is touched. - The country 'is then
divided into districts for enrollment, draft,
tand organization ; and it provides that
1 there shall . be. a ,beard of enrollment ,in
each „distriet",and Provost Mars s to
Ole (military charge of all dese rs, and,
'to carry' outs:the provisionS of the law ;
- these officers to report to the Provost
Marshal General.
The President of the "United States is
to make the draft, calling for the
. proper
quota from each district, and taking into
consideration the number of men already
furnished by -the districts. All persons
are subject, during — two years, to the draft,
and if drafted, are subject to do duty for
three years or during the war.
Substitutes may be provided, and they
are. Considered as exempting the persons
for whom they stand only during the time
for which they are liable.
• The exemptions include the heads of
Executive Departments and Judges of the
Federal Courts, certain sons and brothers
upon whom family responsibility falls, and
softie other persons, mentally or physical
ly incapable for duty.-
Such 'are the principal features ofithe
bill, the remainder is taken up with' claus
es defining the duties of the Provost Mar
shals, the constitution and functions of
the, Boards, the measures necessary—pun
-1 ishraents, &e.—to make the.plan effective,
'bounties, the limner t of reorganizing re
dueed regiments, and numerous other sim-
Bar topics.. ,
' This plan is to 'commence itii operations
by !the appointment of enrolling °officers,
on or before the tenth day of next March.
The enrollinent - is to be made on the first
. of
! July; and on or before the first day of
[ April thereafter the enrolling officer is to
. report to the Board of Eurolbcnent.-

• 'Cane Buss Va. Feb. 2, 1863:
DEAR UNCLE: As I have some spare
time at present, I will-endeavor to inform
you how I-get along in this world of abo
lition murder.. Well, they have not ex
actly-.kilted me yet,'but I ado not know
how secni.lthiiy for we expect to go
"on to Richmond." As for me,l never
was in better health ; Ihave not een sick
a day,. since I enlisted. lam 10 pounds
heavier than I over was before,-But there
are *large number of our regiment it does
.
poLagree, with here, 'the weather is so
different .as a general thing. : theday
tinieit is nice and warm, and , then as soon
as,the sun goes down, it
,will be cold, the
wind will hlaw, and it-is the most cutting
Wind I ever felt. J It does no_t, freeze much
but it seems as though it woqld chill one
to death', and when the dew fills it is like
a shower, and very 'cold. We first stop
ped three miles from the lonb bridge, at
Washington, and laid on the ground- the
night after marching from , the pity.. About
midnight we were called out to the rifle
pit:a, about .a mile . distant. The rumor
was that there was quite a large cavalry
force near that point.. We stood there
until-daylight, then went to camp with as
little game as , coMmon. We only.were
there froth Tuesday till Friday:;-,then mov
ed some five miles; staid there only two
days; then came where we are now. We
have heen here some_over three monthi.
I do, not know how long we may sty
here. If there should- be a battle very
near, we will : probably have a sight after
it isloolate to 'do any good. That is the
style now:a-days. We are in Siegel's corps.
It is astonishing to go through this. coun
ty), and see the soldiers that are here to
guard the Capital. It would seem that
there are soldiers enough here to flog the
.world. Here you can see fort!;- as far as
yon con look or travel, just to .keep this
ode place. The hills are white with tents
a§ far as you can see; but I tell you sol
diers are down on this nigger business.—
They swear they_will never raise a sun to
free a l nigger, The white residents here
have all skedaddled. YOU cannot see a
young Virginian berth—they have all
.gone into the rebel army. It is idle to say
that the South are not , united. If thesol
.diers of the North were as firmly united,
we would have succeeded better. Our sol
dieri3 do not seem to care who whips.—
They are getting tired of fighting when
patriotism is in the,pocket, and not in the
heart., 4 , f ;
I wish you could see the mark war
leaves where it goes. Everything is de
stroyed. • You can travel for a whole day
and scarcely Imo anything but the ruins of
houses, barns, timber and 'fences.. The
timber was valuable—mostly oak, chest
nut, and yellow-pine. 'The large timber
is almost all cut down=just slashed to get
it out of the way of the forts. I have seen
hundreds of acres of the. most beautiful
oak all slashed for that purpose. - •
The soil is of a light yellow ; no stone ;
only,a little fine graver,like flint ; the dust
sparkles like steel-dust ,when the sun
shines on it.
Perhaps you would like to know what
we live on. We have bread and meat
every 'day. Fresh beef two three
times a 'week, an d salt meat the balance of
the week. We have coffee twice a day
as a -common thing ; potatoes sometimes ;
beans every day. We live very well in
' camp, but not very well on the march.—
The time of the nine months men will ex,
pire in April, and so far as I know they
will not re-enlist. I do not believe anoth
er draft canhe enforced; the people are
getting tired of this wholesale butchery,
!when no good is'accomplished.

Plainly Speaking,- our presses - have been

The Glut of Silver in Canada.
It is some gyatificationin these days of
paper Currency to know that there is *coin
somewhere s on the continent. If_ we have
no specie the Canadians are surfeited with
it, and are consequently in just about as
bad a fix as we are. - The following para
graph tells the whole story :
"It would do a hard-money man good
to go to Canada.- The currency consists
almost exclusively of American silver.—
Silver abounds everywhere. Everybody
is loaded with it, and _everybody tries "to
get rid of it, as peopledo - of doubtful
funds, the taxes are paid in sillier ' and.the
collectors' take-it by the bushel. The city
Treasurekof Toronto-has half-a tun of it.
The mereldnts have bags of it in their
safes. The banks'won't receive it The
Great Western Railway has issued print
ed notices that. only five per cent of silver
will be received for fare or freight. , Only
think , of a country where you i pannot pay
your fare on the cars in silver coin.! At
Toronto, London and elsewhere, business
men and firms have' united in a. general
resolution to receive silver only ',at- a dis
count of five per cent for Canada bank
paper. ..This of course applies 'to. Ameri ,
can silver, as the Canadian and. English
coinage is a .legal tender. Think` again
of a region, within One mileg Detroit,
