We4gard an earl• call for additional
troops as inevitable, and believe that the

matter,slle more fill the country he ben

troops have not materially added to the
numerical force of ,our armies. That
700,000 was under the first conscription
law, and gave eiemption from service on
the payment of co - imputation. The:re
sult was that it did not put 50,000 men
into the service—not more than one in
fifteen of those drawn accepting duty.
Such a call resulted intreV i iii .collecting
money and not •men. - The IriA ca ll'for
500.1100 men has not, at this time, put over
126,000 men in the field.. Over 200,000

should be based. By this means the Weal-,
thy districts which have contributed their
money and taken their men from the poor
er districts, will now be allowed the full
benefit of their s comparatively unim
paired strength in the patriotic work of
filling up our armies, and the districts less
favored with fortune, whose arms•heariug
population has been drained to give
wealth immunity -from the exactions of
the war, will at last be justly dealt with.
Philadelphia has not furnished on fourth
her quota under the last two calls from
her own citizens, while many rural dis
trietshave been almost exhausted of able
bodied men who had to choose between
volunteering in the cities withliberal boun
ties, or duty as unbountied conscript; at
home.
This system of allowing credits to he
nnale at the option of the volunteer has
been fruit lid of imtoldevils. It has robbed
the people: rubbed the goVernment ; rob
bed the armies. and opened innumerable
and most tempting channels to demoralize
the Nation. It has thrown wide oPt -, :n tit'e
doors to unrestrained competition tin• men..
and apps tiled directly to the cupidity and
cow:lichee of _the people instead Of trust
ing their patriotism. it has eibausted
Pennsylvania to the tuneof not less than
six t h millions of dollars within the last
two yearS. Even Franklin county, 'the
cu•tint of military spoliation from tooth
armies. to the extent of not less than live
millions. has been compelled to pay fully
half a million as local bounties in b=d3-1:
