as ho is drafted. It is found that the las1 j

Three hundred thousand more men will
be nei'iled for tho prosecution of tho
campaign, if it is deemed advisable to keep
up our armies to their present standard,
for the rca ou that at least one hundred
and fifty thousand veteran troops will
leave the service before next May. It is
found that as our army is pushed into the
the southern territory a greater number of
men arc needed to cover tho euormom ex
