The following article we cut froura copy of
the Richmond :Komar received yesterday : •
"One of the most important duties that will
devolve uporr Oocgiesi at its approaching ties-
Edon will be to recruit the strength - Of our arm
ies;. The executive branch of the government
has depleted our armies. and jeopardised our
contest by an easy tolerattOn of th3Sertion and
stragglingi which have reduced 'Oor military
force to an alarming extent.. It has
_trilled
with thecause Of 'the country it has ignored
the death penalty in our , armies ; "it alas neg
lected its diSolpliti, winked at capital crimes,
emasculated' the war; preached. sickly send
mentalierit,. and taught the country the mis
fortune of being;saddled with. e 'government
that takes a monstrous " and unnatural Pride, in
defying public sentiment, in treating. the conn
ects le with insoles:Lei); and
in snub
ngadVitlftiVrofintectoracy,....
•It Will be for Congress "to` reimr, as best" it
can the Mischief done the public service:l3y
weak and impracticable 'executive; to 164 to
the reduction, rit'our' forces in 'the field ;,..the
decay of 'Military diecipline the ,demoralisa
tion of ourirmies, and the Jetipardy,in which
our cause has' been • put by a loog course of
trifling condect, Childrili pride of opinion, un
worthy'obatinicy;. official ohtMesiess t conceit,
deflanchbf opinion; imperiottanias and
despotic affectation on'the •'part et those en;
trusted with the execution. of{ the mar: ,
If'our armies had been kept Whole, if diner
tiona had' been 'punished with the exemplary
sentence of death, and if the great 'virtue of
military discipline had - aot - been - abused by the
most shameful.. excesses, therewould'hitiO need
now of eihOrtations of ~Congress to strengthen
our armies and to increase their numbers by
new acts •of legislation..
The fact is, that Congress and the Legisla
tures of the different States ~have exhausted
themselies in a inikitt of unimpeachable zeal
and 'deviation to. replenish'our armies "; the re-
Commendation , of the Executive:to raise troOps
by conscription was yesponded to,instantly ; in
'Virginia alone t,hemilitia have been called out
four Orlive tinike, and in other Stites the army
has been swollen beyond the quota required
from them by troops, raised for local service,
partisan warfare and special exigencies. Not
withstanding this ready end active disposition
on the part of the Confederate Congrats, and the
State Legislatures, to , keeti up the strength Of
our armies, and the recent levies made under
their authority,the numbers of our troops in
the field have. dedrased'through the neglect of
discipline, the indifferdice of our military coM
menders, :anti.' the action of the Executive
branch of the Government, which, so far from
nurturing our armies and encouraging , the mar
tial 'spirit •of <the country, has dianoraitted
them, relaxed the ordinary rules of 'discipline,
and dampitned the ardbr of our troops by de
lay, inaction and uncertainty of purpose.
It will be for Congress to adopt some new
measure to - vectnit ' the numerical strength of
our army, .andlto act In the important and vital
exigency -that is upon with decision and
vigor. We see' noalternative but to 'enlarge
the terms of the Conscription-law 7 -to extend
its operations to Onions between the ages of
eighteen and forty-five or fifty, instead of mak
ing the latter term thirty-five, slat firstrewm
mended by the President: This necessity will
be unwelcome ;"'it may be that it will involve .a
serious'reduction in the producing power of the
pountry and its Capacity' to sustain the
`taised for its defence: But the necessity, its in-
Convenience ' and its dangeri, will have been
forced upon the country by the acts of a weak,
opinionated and headstrong Itrectitive. It'will
be useless for Congress to indulge in recrimina
tions on the subject; the public will under
stand and appreciate the necessity in Which it
acte ; and the legislative body of the nation
will consult the highest inculcations of duty in
rxinsidering the , paraniourit "and vital necessity
Of the country in preference to every other in
terest o r concern. • ,
It is ln this [tense that Congress will be call
ed ripori to' extend the, provisions of the Con
scription law, and to do it without weak had_
talon, without attention to "selfish clamor,
without p unctilio, in the.spirit of plain, urgent
and patriotic duty. We want more troops.
If the issue of this octateit is more valuable
thaw anytother interest in the oonntry, we
must have them at any, cost. While the North
is swelling its armies ours are being reduced by,
desertion, and straggling; these offences are
rapidly increasing through - the shin:ireful toler-.
anon` of theta . by' the Voniniancliii: of
our Minim and 'his' obsequious anbalternis.—
Thle inverse proportion in. the Strength of the
Northern and 13Outherp armies, would, if rui
interrnifed,-1110011 bring a the contest to close:
COngiestrmust act with p!Otaptnetis and Asci,-
Sion ; the ravages and gay in oar armies must
be supplied withnew troops. If it is armory,
to secure the fortunes of 'this contest , to make
new drafts on our people they can endure it;
for what is there of inconvenience, privation,
or hardsbipethat is not preferable to the hor
rors of subjugation.
While our army suffers front the flux:hi de
serters and stragglers, the North is redoubling
ite exertions to cnntli, ,tis. If these exertloos
are not to beencounterrxl by any new ardor in
the administratibn of Piesident Davis, if they
are not to be checked by any aggre4tive mon
ment, fury new essay of 'policy ; • or any. dire'
tura from the habits,of the back track, Cob
grass will be the only: pottier. the 'country ~crin
look to to meet the growing and formidable
preparations of the North. It will
,di? so in the
most practical and useful way-by enlarging the
conscription law to the utmost limits, and put
ting, without delay, the whole available mili
tary force of the Southh-in the field. l
From the editorial article of the Dispatch we
take the, following extract :
We have a painful recollection of Manasseh,
of the period of listlessness:and inaction Whiti,h
-followed that great triumPh.and of the almost
fatal consequences to which - it led. ,")
We cannot believe that our, authorities willpermit a repetition of the torper which. then
invaded them when they reflect upon the
asters of the lest winter. A. victory unimproV
ed,-18, in almoist all cases,•equal to a signal
defeat.. In some cases it is even' Worse. In all,
it inevitably leads to didaster by 4a rule which
is , always working, and never knows rest - for is,
moment. Let us not, for God's sake and for
our own, fall into the error of 'last year: Stir
months'affordect the enemy . the 'ainple tinie' to
recover from the demoralizing effects of Manas
sas. In'six months.from-that battle hi had on
foot 700,000 men and an innumerable' fleet. In
less than that, if he is now suffered to go on
recruiting without interruption, he will bemore
formidable than he ever has-been.
Already the'same cry begins to be raised that
we heard repeated so often last year. We hear
continually of intervention Se Ve heard them
Political arithmeticians are again at . work 'to
sum up the indebtedness of' the Ninth, and
prove the Yankees utterly bankrupt. Short
sighted mortals . persuade themselves now, as
they did then, that they ' can get no more re
cruits. All this `is fallacious. If trusted too
far, it will become ruinously, ‘inisch'evious.
There is no probability of any intervention, so
far as we can 'see. The Yankee Government
will be enabled to exact what sums they Want;
so long as the war continues•tO be as popular
as it is, for the Yankee nation knows that•sep
&ration from the South is , ruin-to them. The
800,000 "asked' for by Lincoln,' will be raised
before' our newspapers shall have done discus
sing the possibility of raising them. - Our hopes
lie in the, stout hearts , and ready handsof• our
young men. These are the only, ,hopes that
have never failed tie, and they are the cl.nly ,
ones' in which we ought ever to cOnfide.
others are , fallacious Land 'lead. only to disaster.

At an early hour yesterday morning, knots
of these aldermanic looking gentry, with white
vests and stiffened shirt colors had collected
in WI vicinity of C6l. Coiner, for the
purpose of discussing the merits of the order—
qf that, order No, 66, which was destined to
diiiturti the equilibrium of many a cash balance
and to cause - unurilling fingers to dive into the
depW of Pleithortic pockets long undisturbed
by the prying 'digits , of their unctous owners.

for the want of the privilege to work I Launch
out, then l the needful, you favored ones of the
higher walks of trade, and let
,the poor have
work.
This slight phlebotbmising of your patriotic
purses will feed thousands of the deserving, and
you be none the worse. By Monday, the 11th

to see you all come up to the terms prescribed,
