Srao LEE Exam -t?--in view of the enroll ment now being made, and the probable draft not far distant, it is a matter of interest to know who are liable to be drafted, and who are exempt. Acoording to the amended ,6En rollment Act," which passed both House of Congress, and bersamo a law on the 19th of February last, th Tee classes of persons are especially exempt First, those whonre phys ically or trtentally unfit for service; sec; Dud,' those who are actually in the,military sea- Nice of the United States; and third, those who have served in either the army or navy fel...two years during the 'present war, and been hon orably diseharg ed. There is another chess of cases contemplated by this act, namely, t hose who byotheir tales and articles of faith/ are con.seientionsly opposed to bearing . a rms. These persons are still liable to draft, bu t are not obliged to go into actual service. rimy are to be considered as non-combatants, Dr to the care of freedinetn, or shall pay the tuna of 4300, t,j be applied to the benefit of sick and won/ailed soldiers. As the law is, pone but thor,e coming under the above elassc i are exempt, but all persons over the age of ti renty and under forty-five years shall be enr( gled, and with these exesptions, liable to be dre dted. Ittas been supposed that-the 'only son of a widowed mother," dependent on him for E sup port, as under the old law, would now be ex empt; but the new law expressly states I. hat no one not mentioned therein shill be exem, Pt. The $3OO commutation clause is skill in fore e, and any one drafted can free himtelf by fn r nfaliing a substitute for paying tha $3OO.

THB DISAPPEARANCE O$• CriA A MA PENCIar--- 114 Body , Found.—The body of Mr. Charles Pencyl, whose, disappearance we noticed in the Inquirer. of the Bth of • April last, was found on Sunday morning last, by - George Waltman, of Friends Cove. Mr. Walttium, with a little son, was in the woods near Charles Harcle *ode's, at the foot of Dunning's mountain, looking for his cows. The lad saw a hat, and said to his father, "Here is a soldier's hat," and looked for the letters and figures that should designate the company and regiment. The father, perceiving a band of crape around the hat, said, "This is Pencyrs hat." Soon a boot was discovered near by. Mr. ;Waltman hung the hat on a bush, and went for his • neighbors, who immediately came with him. They soon found the remains of a man, the limbs, body-and head dislocated and torn asunder, and scattered within ;in area of a himdred feet. . The body appeared to hare been tievoured by dogs or other , beasts. A wallet was found in his pocket containing nine dollars and ninety cents, and two •or three notes. It appears that he had rnsy about twelve dollars with him when he left home. A. coroner's inquest was held& Bun clizy. The suspicion of murder, entertained by come, seems to have been entirely removed by the searching examination of tha.jnry.— He evidently perished from. exposure on the night of the 29th of March last, when he had lost his way in a limy snow storm.--_Bedford Inquirer. • • JULY.
