ABOUT THE DRAFT.—We have rt.. red all
the reliable information about the draft that is
accessible at present, and herewith present it to
Our readers.
Time of the Draft.—The draft was not mule on
the sth inst. because the adjustment of credits and
quotas was not completed. Volunteering is now
very rapid in most of the districts of the State,
including our own, and as long as it continues in
the present -ratio a proper adjustment ofquotas is
next to an impossibility. As Coen as volunteering
ceases, the draft will doubtless be made promptly.
Sub-districts which are not filling their quotas by
volunteers present no difficulty in the adjustment
of their credits, and they will be drafted at an
early day - Sherman has taken Atlanta, and Grunt
wants prompt additions to his heroic forces to en
able hnia to achieve early and complete success
and crush out the rebellion in its last stronghold,
• and the government will not be faithless to him,
his noble army and its holy:taus°. Jet no man
dream that the- draft will `net be made and en
forced. Justice to the loyal districts which have
responded promptly demands that it be done, and
it will be done.-
l'olunteers.—Volunteers will be accepted from
any district untirthe day the draft is made. under
the same regulations as heretofore. The cone
government bounties will be paid, and credits al
lowed. Let every district, therefore, spare no
pains .to" put in its quota. They not only re
lieve themselves of the draft, but they do their
whole duty to our ; brave armies and to the gov
ernment by supplying soldiers just when they ore
needed. Our noble defenders want their thinned
ranks recruited JusT NOW—let them have the
men.
Efemptions by C oinmutation.-:—UndtT the law
of 1863, the payment of $3OO commutation money
by a drafted man exempted him for three years,—
at least the law was finally so 'construed by the
Provost Marshal General, altholrgh he bad at fir),t
construed it differently. So long as that decision
stands—and it .is still not revoked—all who paid
$3OO before the' 24th of February 1864. hre ex-
empt for three years unless the entire _enrolment
is sooner exhausted. ribose who have Veen-draft,
eti and paid $3OO under the new bin? of 24th
February 1864, were expressly exempted only
for that draft, and are now again liable to con•
seription: The law, speaking of the payment of
commutation, says that "such payment of money
shall operate only to save such person from draft in
fillingetlua quota." The law is so plain on the
subject that no one Can err in its construction,
and persons discharged by payment of $3OO since
the 24th of February• last, are now liable to draft
tinder the present call.
Subilitutes.—Any enrolled man may put in a
substitute at any time before the draft; but the
substitute must not be. subject to military duty.
He must be an alien, under 2° years of age, over
4t,, or have served two years in the army and
been honorably discharged. All such substitutes
"can select the arm of service they preliT, and also
their company and regiment, and are paid .$4l/0
gorerOment bounty. Negroes can be put in as
substitutes the same as white men, An enrolled
„man thus putting in a substitute is exempt from
Silty for the period his substitute is not liable, not,
exceeding, however, the time for which he is
mustered. The proof as to alienage or age of the
substitute must be complete—just such proof as
would be neeessary to discharge the substitute if
he were enrolled and applying to hare his name
-Id - ricked off. Drafted persons may furnish sub
stitutes after the draft takes'place, and may then
put in enrolled citizens—men x ho are liable to
duty,—and the principal is then eietupt from draft
until the existing enrolment is exhausted. Substi
tutes going in for drafted ineu cannot select their
companies or regiments, or the arm of service
they prefer, and they get no gin - eminent bounty.
The rule is that substitutes stand just as their
principals would, and therefore substitute, before
the draft arc on the footing of volunteers, while
substitutes for conscripts are on the' footing of
drafted men. Deserters from the rebel army are
not subject to enrohnent or draft, nor are they
acceptable as substitutes or recruits.
Crediting Substitutes.-,--Substitutes must invari
ably be credited to the district in which the prin
cipal is enrolled, and they must also be received
and mustered by the Provost Marshal of, the dis
trict in which the principal resides. Thus—a
resident of this congressional district could not
have a substitute received and mustered at Car
lisle, or by any other Provost Marshal than Capt.
G. Eyster To this ride there is but one ex
ception.' Regular army officers rJecrniting in the
:State, may receive a substitute and muster him
for any district in the State in which the princi
pal resides. ,
Applications to strike Names off—Any enrolled
man can apply nt the office of the Provost Marshal
at his convenience, to hate his name stricken from
the enrolment, for alienage, non-residence, under
20 or over 45 years, or , for manifest permanent
physical disability. As we have already stated,
the evidence touching age, alienage and non-resi
dence must be of the most conclusive and satis- ,
factory nature, and the disability must be-palpa
ble. Where a man has been properly enrolled in
his district, and atterwaids moves into another
• district, his name cannot „le stricken from tile
original enrollment until he presents the certifi
cate of the board in his new district, that he is
dilly enrolled there. His name is then erased.
Non-reporting G'onscripts.-4he government
properly holds it to be the duty of every citizen to
aid in having every drafted man report for duty ;
mid it is especially the interest of citizens to do
, so to guard against supplemental drafts to make
up for deserters: Each district must furnish its
-full quota of men to the service—not by running
i them off to Canada or hiding in the mountains or
'tinder the shelter of disloyalists. When men fail
00 report and, the goyenunent arrests them as de
serters, they ire not credited to any district.—
Drafted men who have failed to report can, how
ever, still do so and be credited to their proper
districts, if they come promptly. See official no
tice of Capt. Eyster in our, advertising (minnow.
Adjustment of Quotas.—There are many dis
tricts from which' numbers of volunteers - hire
gone to receive high bounties elsewhere, and been
credited away froth their homes. This must
operate harshly upon the citizens of suchldistricts,
and unless their enrollments and quota 4 are re ad.
jested before a draft is made; in some cases there
are not enough able-bodied men remaining to fill
the number required. We do not know what ac
tion the government may take in 'such cases, but
we feel warranted in assuming that it will deal
justly, and, if so, there must be - a re-adjustment of
the,enrollment and quotas. We would advise
citizens to ascertain definitely the names of men
who have thus volunteered and been credited
elsewhere, and make proof of the fact to the Pro
vost Marshal, so that when the day thr drafting
comes, there may be tangible' evidence of the
wrong that a draft of the full quota would impose
upon this people. The government cannot, we
feel assured, fail to correct the - enrollment in such
cases, and if the enrollment be corrected, the
quotas mustbe redueed. It is a misfortune, but
not a crime to be peer; and _because' rich cities
and communities can pay higher bounties than
poor ones, and thus' draw the men away from
them, will nut warrant the 'government' in requi
ring the few men left to furnish the whole original
quota, and we doubt not that ample justice will
be done in sue ( . .s.. Citizens of such districts,
however, ohm a h.-, the evidence ;it liaml to
show the n her of men they have lost in that
sue es.
The One hundred Day Men.—The men now in
service "Misted for one hands d days, may re-en
list at any time, without regayd to the length of
time they have been serving, and receive local
bounties whi_rever they prefer. Formerly they
were required to have been in the service thrty
. one days before they could re-enlist; hut on° Sut
urday last Gen. Couch was officially notified that
they could re-enlist fof one or inure years at any
time. If three fourths of any company or regi
ment re-enlist, their organization will remain just
• as it is. When they enlist in less numbers they
are ,consolidated and placed under contiete»t
officers of their own-preference wherevergracti
cable. _
Beware of 'Swindlers.—Everyvoluntgel should
shun a bounty-broker as he wourcies _pestilence.
Their trade is to profit by swindling Soldiers and
the government, and no honest man will encour
age them. There are responsible: and duly au
thorized recruiting officers to be found in almost
every locality, and there volunteers should go.
Let every enlisted soldier understand! also, that
any officer who retains any part of his bounty, on
any pretext whatever, is a thief and n.scoundrel,
and is insolently violating military and civil law.
Equally iniquitous must be the proposition we
have heard of to insure againsethe coining draft
for $l5O. We have been shown circulars of a
New York establishment proposing to furnish a
substitute for any man, in case he is drafted, for
$l5O. It cannot be honestly done.. Either the
government or the patrons of such a concern must
-- be swindled; and honest men . should avoid it.
Possibly individuals might not be cheated; but
substitutes could be furnished at that price only
by a combination of corrupt officers, bounty-bro
kers and bounty-jumpers, and- no" honest man
should sanction such a fraud upon the government.
.The low price at viiiich,ineuraricce are • proposed
to be taken is conclusive as to fraud in some quar
ter. Let honest men be honest with their gov
ernment, and Ann bounty" swindlers and soldier
brokers of every kind.
How Bounties may be Colleacit. - ---The new act
of. assembly authorizes the proper authorities of
any ward, borough or township, in case the county
does not do so, to levy it tax to raise a bounty not
exceeding 1•3300 for each man requited tee fill their
respective quotas, and collect each year not ex
ccediug two per centof the last regular valuation
of property. Additional bounty must be raised
by subscription; but a majority of the citizens
may by petition to the next legislature procure
the authority to raise the full umount by taxation.
We give on. the first page of to-day's paper an
abstract of the new law.
REME.MBER OUR SUFFERING.—The people of
Franklin county haVe suffered sadly since the
commencement of the war t alike by the spolia
tion of friend amrfoe; but our fields have yielded
golden harvests, and the labor of the husbandman
has been well requited. 'Our barns and store
houses teem with abundance, and 'of that abund
ance let the homeless and suffering of Chambers
burg have a liberal share. Already the chills of
autumn n.re upon us, and soon the biting-frosts
and hoarge storms of .winter will bring to hull&
reds in our midst the bitter dregs of the cup of
bitterness presented by a remorseless foe.
Against this inevitable, wide-spread want, let
the blessed and generous of our own county- make
seasonable and liberal provision. There are few
farm-houses iu Franklin or Cumberland counties
that cold(' not well spare a few blankets, gals,.
or otherlbedding without sensibly feeling the loss;
and if the present suffering in our midst—which
must be greatly increased as winter approaches—
was but understood, most of our 'country people
would spare from their k.uperabundance some
thing to contribute to the many wants of Chain
bershurg.
We earuestly urge upon evt , ry fanner to set
aside something to relieve the pressing necessities
of Chambenthhrg this winter. A barrel of flour;
a few bushels of corn or poMtoes; a quarter, or
side or more of meat, or anything that will supply
the wants of a homeless people, almost wholly
destitute of clothing, furuiture,mnd means of live
lihood. If each will give something to meet this
just demand upon every one blessed with,plenty,
there will be comparatively little suffering here
this winter; but if our own people do not deal
generously with the misfortunate, there must he
appalling want and distress where once was 11111111-
dunce and even to spare.
We ask even• man and woman who feels for
the stricken and sorrowing to lend a helping hand
in this matter, and do not let it be delayed. Pro
duce may be
.sent to any of the warehouses in
Chambergbarg with the assdranee that it will be
properly disposed of, and clothing May be sent to
any responsible citizen of the town.. Many sec
tions of the State have more than met every just
expectation in contributing to alleviate the suffer
ings of our people; and,now the great and varied
wants to enable them to brave the pitiless storms
(4 winter must be largely supplied, if supplied at
all, from the bountiful garners and surplus cloth
ing of the people of the Cumberland Valley. Bear
in mind that the promise to the "cheerful giver: .
is from. Hint who faileth not
BANK OF CUAMBERSBCRG,IIe Bank of

Church, and is transacting business ri , gularly. It
has a surplus of about sixty thousand dollars; has
ever confined its operations to legitimate and safe
business, and is therefore not even crippled by the
vhdalism that destroyed our beautifid town. It

nearly a quarter of a million in Curreney, and

Cnimcr To Wltom CREDIT IS - DUE.—The
people of the County may congratulate themselves
that the records belonging to the Court House
were saved_ from destruction in the late fire,
through the timely exertions of K. S. Taylor, Esq.,
Prothonotary, and Harry Strickler, Esq., Register
and Recorder. These gentlemen took the pre
cautionary measures to pack the records and send
them to a place of safety on the evening prior to
the investment of our place by the Rebels, and
had they not done so they would all have been
consumed with the building: as it would have lieen
impossible to have secured them that morning.
These excellent officers are entitled to many thanks
from the people of the county for their fore-thought
and labors in so important a matter as the preser
vation of the many valuable"papers which had ac
cumulated during a Mfig series of years in the re
spective offices.
_
PRISONER.—OusSunday last an extra
train from Hagerstown arrived in this place with
56 Rebel prisoners captured by Gen. Averill's
Command in the Shenandoah Valley. The pris
oners were in charge of guards under the com
mand of Lieut. W. W. f3lackmere. Of the num
ber 51 were sent to Fort Delaware for exchange,
and five to Fort Mifflin to take the oath of alle
giance. One man prepared to take the oath sta
ted that he had four brothers and eleven cousins
in the Union Army. The examination of the
prisoners was made by Provost Marshal, Capt.
McGowan. Another lot had been sent through
on Saturday.
A RABID InsLotm,fsT.—A man named Eli
Smith, from Taneytown, Md., st as-arrested in
This place week before, last. Smith on coming to
town and reviewing the destruction around him,
remarked, in the presence of some of our citizens,
that it was a great pity the rebels did not burn
the entire place. Ile also acknowledged that he
was a rebel. He was taken hifore Provost Mar
shal M'Gowan, and sufficient testimony being ad
duced he was sent to jail, and afterwards to Fort
Mu..J.B3its R. (,ILMI)RE, Chief of the Military
Telegraph Corps . in North Carolina, was here on
visit Fect•ral dare and feturned to his post last
Wednesday. He is in excellent health and spirits.
Being isolated from our main army, and exposed
to rebel assaults. he is inlavor of un "immediate
eessation of hostilities" —just when the rebels lay
down. their arms, and subunit to the authority of
the Vnited States. He, like most brave solders,
was not aware that the war huts been a "failure"
until he read it in the Northern newspapers.
SOLDIERS SILLED.--We learn from the Way
bora' Record that John Mickley and Emanuel
urkett, of Capt. Kurtz's company, were killed.
ar Martinsburg on 'Monday of last week,.in Gen.
verill's engagement with the rebels. The body
if 'Mickley was procured; but not that of 'Mr.
'lurkett. Both were brave soldiers but are liow
:folded to the thousands ofloyal sacrifices- to bloody
treason.
AIiCIIVITCTURE.—We invite attention to the
card of Mr. Colbert, Architect and Builder, in
(my advertising col tuns. He brings tentimonialn
of the highest, character, attesting his attainmenta
in his profession, and he is just the man most
needotkin Chambersburg at this time. Every
one about to re-build should first find an e'sperineed
architect to plan his building, as great economy
and convenience must result therl%from.

Fort Morgan surrendered to Con. Furragut on
the 2:11 ult., with 600 prisoners and 60 guns, thus
giving the entire Mobile Bay to "Old Salamander,"
as the gallant tars call their brave commander.
In his official report he thus pays his respects to
Gen. Page, the rebel commander of Fort Morgan.
I regret to state that after the assembling of
the Rebel officers at the appointed hour, 2 P.
M., for the surrender outside the fort, it was dis
covered on an examination of the interior, that
most of the guns were spiked. ninny of the gun
carriages wantonly injured, the arums, ammunition
provision, etc., destroyed, and there was every
reason to believe this had been done after the
white flag bad-been raised.
It was also discovered that (ten. Page and WV.-
..nil of his officers had no swords to deliver up,
and further that ROMP of these which were sur
rendered had been broken.
Gen. Page and his officers,' with a childish spite,
destroyed guns which they said they Would defend
to the last, but which they never defended at all,
and threw away or broke those weapons, which
they had nq the manliness to use against their
enemies ; for Fort Morgan never fired'a gun after
the commencement of the bombardment and the
advance pickets of our army were actually on its
glacis.
General 81Mndan has steadily advanced lip the
Shenandoah Valley, but, no general engagement
has been fought. Gen. Averill has had several
most brilliant victories over the Jebel cavalry—
his last on Saturday, near Bunker Hill, resulting
in heavy captures and routing the rebels hand
somely. Gen. Earley's headquarters are at Win-
chester.

UNITED STATES 7-30 LOAN.-
The Secretary of the Treasury gives notice that
suberiptions will be received for Coupon Treasury &telt,
payible three years from Aug. 15th, ISCeI, with senti•an•
.nual interest at the rate ofseven andtbree•tentbs percent.
per annum,—principal and interest both to be paid in law-
ful money. . _
These notes will - be convertible at the option of the
bolder at maturity, into six per cent. gold bearing bonds,
payable not lem_litan five nor more than twenty peen
from-their date, mr,the Government may elect. They
will be : issued in cfnitomtontiotut of 00; $lOO, 4500, $l,OOO
and $5,000, and all subscriptions must be for elpiollars
or some multiple of fifty dollars.
The notes will be transmitted to the owners free oftrale•
portatiOn charges as soon after the receipts of the original
Certificates of-Deposit as they can be prepered.
As the notes draw:lnterest from Angtmt 15, persons ma
king deposits subsequent to that date must pay the Wee
art weaned from date of note to date of depoeit.
Pardee depositing twenty.five thousand dollars and up
ward, for these notes at any one time will be allowed a
*emeriti/don of cam-quarter of one per cent, width will be
paid by the Treasury' Department upon theretteipt'afa
bill for the amount, certified reo by the 'Mice with wawa
the deposit was made. No deductionforcommission must
be made from the deposits. •
SPECIAL ADVANTAGES OF TMS.EOAN.
IT IS A NATIONAL SAVINGS BANN, eking a higher
rata of interest than any other, and . the but ssettrity. Any
savings bank Which pays Its depositors In 1.1. SLlcotei,
considers that it is paying in the best circulating medium
of the country, and It cannat pay in anything better, for
its own assets are either in government securities or In
notes or bonds payable in government paper.
It Is equally cons,enient as a temporary oirraument
investment. The notes can always be sold for within
fraction of their face and acosu3mlated interest, and are
the best security with banks as collateral for discounts.
Converable into a Six per cent. .5.20 Odd Bend
• In addition to the very• liberal interest on the notes for
three years, this piivilege of conversion is now worth
about three per cent. per annum, for the current rate for
.5.1213 Benda is not less than nine per cont. premium, and be
fore the war the premium on six per cent, - U. S. stook'
was over tweedy per cent. It will be seen that the as
profit on this loan, at the present market rate s isnot
less than ten per cent. per annum.
Its Exemption from State or Municipal Taxation
lint aside from all the advantages we hare enumerated,
a special Act of Congress exempts all bonds and Treasury
note from focal laxative. On the average, this exemp
tion is worth about two per cent. per annum, according to
the rate of taxation in various parts of the country. -
It is believed that no securities offer so great induee
meats to lenders as those issued by the government In
all other forms of indebtedness, the faith or ability of pri
vate parties, or stock companies, or separate communities,
only, 16 pledge for payment, while the whole property of
the country is held to secure the discharge of all the oh
ligation.s of the United States.
'While the government offers the most liberal tents for
its loans, it believes that the very• strongest appeal will be
to the loyalty and patriotism of the people.
Duplicate certificates will be iuned for all deposing..—
The party depositing must endorse upon the original

they are to be issued in blank or payable to older. 'When
so endorsed it mast be left with the officer receiving the
