ArrOHNKY < iK.NKII A t.'s Ot HrK. ) March 24, 1805. / SIR: —In your letter of 22d inst. you ask whether the It'll see'ion of the Act approved 3d March 1860, entitled "An act to amend the several acts heretofore passed to provide for the enrolling ami calling out the national forces, and fol zither purposes," is applicable to the call for troops made by the President 19th December I*o4. The section is as fol lows: " That hereafter all persons mustered into the military or naval service, wheth er as volunteers, substitutes, representa tives or otherwise, shall be credited to the State, aud to the ward, township, precinct or other enrollment sub-distrsct where such persons belong by actual residence, (if such persons have an actual residence within the I'nited States, and where such persons were or shall be enrolled (if lia ble to enrollment; ) and it is hereby made the duty of the Provost Marshal (Jeneral to make such rules and give such instruc tions tothe several Provost Marshals and Boards of Enrollment, aud mustering Ol ticers, as shall be necc.<saiy for the faith ful enforcement id' the provisions of tlii* flection, to the end that fair aud just credit! shall be given to every section of the coun | try: l*rori<ht/, That in any call for troopsj hereafter, no county tow 11, township, ward.! precinct, or election district, shall have! credit except for men actually furnished! en said call, or the proceeding call, bjl said county, town, township, ward, pre ! cinct or election district, and mustered! into the military or naval service on the! <|Uota thereof." The 27th section makes the Act takcl effect from and after its pas-ago. The 14th section furnishes the rule by! which men. irhin mitxtirril into the miii I tary or naval service and credited to the! various localities from which they cotne.l The 15th secti'Ki fuinishes the rule byl which credits arc to lie given. when cmu-l puting for the quotas id the v irion- draftl districts. Hut the 15tli section hasapro-i viso, which expressly prohibits the ajipb-l catiin of the rule therein given to thej pending draft. Prom the faet that tlierej is no such proviso to the 14th «cction. its would seem that it was intended tlntl credit should be given uhvii the mustering in under the pending call. But, the 14th section has a proviso, the! peculiar latiguage'of whi<h would, at first! blush, seem to favor the idea that < 'engross! intended that the rule, in that section pie I scribed, should be future to the pending call, and not future to the passage of the Act. That proviso declares that credit shall not be given, cxcest for men actually furnished ou said 011 said call or the pre ■ceeding call. The manifest purpose of the proviso is to limit the time within which a credit may be demanded. This section must be regarded as tak ing effect from the passage' of the Ast, unless such a construction is consistent with, or forbidden by, other parts of the Act. As is stated in my opinion to you of the 13th of March, it appears from the face of the Act, that, at the time it was passed, there was a pending draft under the call for troops in December, 1804, and it is carefully provided that nothing in the Act shall operate to postpone the pending draft, or interfere with the quotas assign ed therefor. Now. the ruie for giving credits at the time of mustering in. will not postpone the present draft or interfere with the vuotas assigned therefor. It seems to me that there is nothing in the Act that prevents the application of th» 14th section to the present djaft, un less it may be the proviso thereto. 11 was intended by that proviso simply to limit the time within which credits might be claimed and not to postpone the applica tion of the rule of credits, when mu»tfrinn in, to.future calls. I am of the opinion that the 14th section of said act is applicable tothe call fortroops made by the President ou the ll)th De cember, 1864. 1 have the honor to be. very respect fully, your obedient-servant, JAMES SPKKD, Attorney Geu'l Hon.

The writer also urges Booth to be cnutious as the suspicions of the Washington authorities had been ex cited and that they were prepared to defeat any attempt of the kind on that day. The author of the letter, in con clusion, tells Booth to goto Richmond and ascertain how such action would be regarded by the rebel Govern ment. The last lines penned by Mr. Lin coln were writen on a card at about 8:15 p. m., while seated in his car riage in front of the White House, just before he started togo to the theater. They were addressed to Hon Geo. Ashman, and were as fol lows : Allow Mr. Ashman and friend to come to me at 9 a. m., to-morrow. [Signed] A. Lincnln April 14th, 1865. —lt is stated that Gen.
