A Oefesso of the Drafted Men.
Some lino slnoe wd published Mtntement,
oat from a per, tnreferenee to
thol6Blb£&dlo9th regtipeahi of drafted men,
the substance of which'imTihet they bad to
be driven aboard the vessels at Washington,
llkeadroveof sheep,having becomedemor
allied through tho ignorance of their offfoers.
~ as the sen all belong t;o the adjeiningcoon
tiM htre,tbelr frienda. will bo pleased to find
tho-followlng correction* written from Fortress
Monroe, by an officer in oho of: the regiments
allndod to. Ho pronounces the ilatement of
- their haviog been driven aboard the vessels,
a falsehood, and gives the facts as follows:
The two logiaenu in question after leav
ing the ears took dlnnerat tho Soldier** Home;
two .hours after, about four o'clock in,the
evening, -thev were ordered by4helr offioers
into line, ana obeyed to * man* The oolumn
marched to the wharf when tho regiments
marohed aboard of the two transports, olfioen
. and men, stored away knapsack* and aims in
* v good order, and remained aboard daring; the
'Wight. ;On thefoUowing morning the baggage
-of the regiments was being got aboard/and
whilst the ofieers and part of the men were
engaged doing so, an; insignificantly. small
tqaad of: oavalry came dashing down on the
men where they i were at ,work, some oLtho
men oat farthest Cromthe bontwould have
- been ridden over if the biackgoards coald
have dona it. This made them-mad and on*
of them disarmed a cavalry, man,-of his sword.
I suppose him to be the chap that-got-mad
and wrote the piece in the paper.’ The offi
cers of. the I68t& bed to setaguqrd on till the
oavalry got akay; for sald'earalry had made
some iaialtlng remarks, and the officers knew
that If tome of the b y» had got after them,
the "shetp droving I ', would have,toon in-the
other direction; especially as someef the toys
had got Itioto their heads that these aamecav
airjr gentleman were some of the first troop#

The President said that he Wouldn't if he
could, and couldn't if he would, withhold his
decree of emancipation on New Tear's Day.
He wiiymmediatoly prooeed to the orjganlsa
tton of African, regiment^/and .General
Phelps's visit here Is supposed to be conneoted
wlUi ihe oarryibg out of that purpose.
The opinion of thoAttoroey General, af
firm*tory of the free men of color
born in the Hutted States, is accounted alto
gether th* ablest, as it is the most important,
legal paper.drawn up by him sine* he assumed
the duHes of U* office. After stating Ms own
conclusions, he examinee those authorities,
usually cited lit opposition. ' ; n

raised were founded upon. Virginia law, and
tlie decision ii confined tefree penont of oolor
In Virginia, who'are determined not to be,
eltixens of the United State*, is examined at
icjme length, and it is shown that the'dpioion,
ae.anauthority, is retuttedby the opinion of
. AttorpeyGeneral March 15th, 1&43,

4th, 1656, refers to passports .to blacks
oh the ground that they are not eiticent. Mr.
Bates oonolodes that Mr. Norris qualifies
this broad statement, so far as to leave no
doubt as to his practical opinion and the cor* I
tifleate, which he offers to give to the effect,;
that the bearer is a fall natural boru’inhabl

port. The case of the State of Teunessee vs.
Ambrose, in whioh it waa adjudged that a free

next examined at length, and It is shown that
the opinion of the Court rests, If, upon eoy
basis at all, on the false assumption that, un
der the Constitution, grades and classes, of
citUens are known finally. {The.Attorney
General takes op the Died Beott else. After
quoting the plea in abatement, showing that
the decision was, and'should have been strictly
oonfined to that, be seys r Taking the plea
then; itrioUy as It is written, the persons,
who are excluded by this judgment from
being eltixens of Missouri, must be negroes,
not mulattoes, nor mestisos, nor quadroon!.
They must be of Afriean descent, not Asiatic,
even thobgh they come of the blackest Ma
lays In tioutheasiern Asia; they must have
had ancestors, yet that maybe doubtful, U
born in slavery of pntatlva parents, who were
slaves,, and being staves, inoapable of con
tracting matrimony, and, therefore, every

common law «vU«s and iqcapable of
ancestors. His ancestors, if be had any, must
bare been of pur* Afriean blood, not mixed
with the tawny Moor of Moroeoo or the
