Of course, no re flection is intended upon any individual hereto fore connected with the enrollmeat of conscripts. But experience has demonstrated the fact most abundantly, that none but men of sound judg ment and rare discretion should receive the ap pointment cither of enrolling officer or examin ing surgeon. All the Government can desire is the services of the sound and able-bodied men of the country. It can neither wish to harass the people unnecessarily, nor to force into the ranks persons of feeble health, who, instead of adding to the strength and efficiency of the army, would be an expense and incum brance. The impo’icy and cruelty of the course here tofore pursued are illustrated by the following case related to me by a Brigadier General: “A young man in one ot his regiments, anxious to serve his country, had volunteered early in the war, but his health became such, owing to a dis ease ot the heart, as to render it impossible for him to continue in the army. Accordingly, afs ter several months’ service he was regularly discharged on account of disability. Upon his return home he was caught by the enrolling ois ficer, taken (o the camp of instruction, examin ed by the surgeon, pronounced lit for duty and sent back to the same regiment from which he had been discharged! When he .rejoined his comrades, the regimental surgeon, who was per fectly lamiliar with his case, promptly reported him as untit for duty ; and so feeble was he when he again started heme, that it was found necessary to place him in an ambulance. He may now be in his grave ibr ought I know.” Now, such a course as this is highly reprehen sible and expensive to the Government. Not only was the previous discharge of this party disregarded, but he was forced from his home at the piril of his life, and transported first to the camp of instruction, then to his regiment in Virginia, and thence to his home, all at the cost of the Government, while also put to the addi tional expense of furnishing him with an outfit and rations, until he was finally discharged.— Other cases of a still more aggravated character both to the Government and the individual, have occurred and need not be rehearsed, here, tor they are perfectly familiar to the country. The point designed to be made, and which is abundantly established by past experience, is, that the law itself is odious to a large class of the .people, and that great care and prudence hould be exercised in the execution of it.— W here able-bodied men within the conscript age seek to evade the service due to the Government, every means should be employed to compel them to the performance of their duty. The man who is not ready to strike for his own freedom, de- serves to be a slave. But persons who are not too feeble to do military dnty, and yet might render important service at home, should not be forced into the field, only to become a dead weight to the army and an expense to the Gov ernment. To accomplish this desirable end, of ficers and surgeons of good common sense should be employed in the execution of the law, which is already odious enough and which may be rendered more so by the appointment of pert, tiippant, unfeeling and unexperienced agents.

Yesterday was an unusuallj’ active day in trade. The fear of small pox having subsi ded, the streets were lined with country wag ons loaded with all kinds of country produce, which sells quickly, and at high prices. More cotton and woollen goods changed hands than was ever before known in one day, which were bought mainly for consumption in Mississippi and Texas. A slight advance in cotton goods—holders not pressing the market, and having strong hopes of reaction. Flour is in great demand, and none in market, ex cept small lots from wagons. Personal. Boltonville, Cobb Co., Ga., > October 29, 18G2 / . Messrs. Editors : In August, last, my sons, W. R Hooper and Thomas W. Hooper, left this place and joined Col. John H. Morgan’s command. Soon after, it was rumored by some that they had deserted the neighborhood to avoid going into the army. These injurious rumors are still circulated by some to their damage. I therefore desire to lay the facts before the public through your columns, so that all may be able to judge whether they arc deserters or not. They had a government contract to furnish timber for gun carriages, shingles, &c , and were informed by the military authorities in Atlanta that they were, on that account, ex empt from military service. For this reason they did not volunteer while the opportunity to do so lasted. When the time had passed, after which the government had said it would receive no more volunteers, and the conscription law was be ing enforced, they were informed their con tract did not exempt them, and that they would be conscribel. This they determinEd should not be the case with them. They were willing to serve the country and fight for our liber ties ; but they said to me that they never would be conscribed and scandalized, as they considered it, by being dragged into the ser vice, and that they intended to go voluntarily, with a company of their own choice and at their own expense. They therefore went to Capt. Holcombe, of Leyden’s artillery, and agreed to join his com pany. The night before they were to leave, my Bon Wm. R. staid with me, and told me they were going with Capt Holcombe, and would take the cars with him for Ah.ngdon, Va., at Bolton the next evening. I went next day to Atlanta and saw Capt. H. He told me my sons had voluntered in his company, and that they were to meet him at Bolton that night to go on to Abingdon with him, and that he had their transportation tickets, &c., ready for them. At the request of my sons, I saw the enrolling officer in Atlanta and informed him that they were going with Holcombe’s com pany. I returned home and told my sons that Capt. H. had everything ready for them to meet him that evening at Bolton and proceed. I accompanied them as they started to the cars, intending to see them off. As I passed by the post-effice alone, I saw some of the At lanta Guards standing there, 'well armed, and thought very strange of it. When I came to where my sons were preparing some pine to make a light, viith which to signal and Btop the train so they could get on, I mentioned to them the fact of having seen the guards and not knowing what it meant. They at once concluded the guards were sent there to arrest them and carry them to the conscript camp, as the enrolling officer had been threatening tc do so. They the r efore determined not to attempt to get on the cars that night. They turned about and went home, made prepara tions and got out their horses and went up into Tennessee, where they joined Col Mor gan’s command as soon as their horses could carry them there. I received a letter from them in five days after they left, Btating that they had reached and joined Morgan’s command ; and I have received letters or information from them every week or two since. They are now, and have been, in active service from the time they left home. t In order to satisfy some, I annex the fol lowing certificate from their company com manders : Headquarters near Maryville, 1 Blount county, Tenn., > October 8, 1862.
