TUESDAY EVENING, ACC. 5. Drafting. All doubts on the subject of drafting are set at rest by the proclamation of the President punished In our late edition! of yesterday. The President calls for six hundred thousand men.

Of this number New York State will be obliged to furnish about one hundred thousand. The State le given until the 15th of August to make up its quota of fifty thousand men, under the call issued in July last if the men are not forthcoming then a draft will ordered. The draft will be made under the law passed at the last session of the Legislature. It Is said the enrolled militia of the first class comprising those be. tween the ages of eighteen and thirty number one hundred and fifty thousand; if these figures are at all accurate, the draft in the first instance will net touch that class who have naturaily more dependent npon them.

The draft for the addl. tional 800,000 will be under the regulations of the Secretary of War, and very probably under it there Will be vastly fewer adequate valid causes of exemption than now exist. Under the old law only those immediately employed In the service of tne government are exempt, practically all able bodied citizen Detww11 tke ages of eigh. teen and forty five yabie to be drafted, under the United States law From tne fact that a dicatcd and found that the only foundation for the rumor was the fact that a colored servant of a navy officer had brought his. master's platoU there this morning to have some slight repair done to them.

Mr. Patrick Kenan, who was arrested, states that he was called upon by officer Oates to assist in quelllag the riot and that he had nothing whatever to no with it and knew nothing of it, until he came by to the place. It is stated that the officer, who were first at the scene of the riot, aUowi4 their feelings against the negroes to interfere with their duties and thai instead of attacking the white rioters they struck at the negroes with their clubs. None of the negroes are at work to day, and but few of the white people, In either of the factqrtes, The Anain5ejnew of th.e. tarties They Ri Held Vo Ball.

This mruiu the accused rioters were brought hetor'e ustice Boerum (21 District Court) an im. riiense throng being about the precincts of the room and densely packiog the interior of the same, so great was the excitement occasioned by this inopportune affair. After the disposition of the ordinary morning cases, the alleged riot matter was taken up, and the following named accused answered as they were called, Michael Maher, Wm. Morris ohn Long, Jam. Flood, Elias P.

Veeder, Patrick Keenan, Ed. Sullivan, (a member of the 69tn and who lost several ot his fingers at the recent battle on the James River, and has just returned home on furlough, Patrick Day and Kichard Gra'Ad. Match at Hoboken Eokford of Brooklyn vs. Mutual of New York Eckford Club Victorious. Decidedly the best played and most interesting match we have witnessed this season, was that between the above cluba yesterday at the Elyslan Fields, Hoboken.

Both being competitors of the the Atlantics, lent an additional Interest to the match, and for some weeks past It has been creating quit a commotion in the base ball circles, and the result met with general satisfaction the Mends of the Mutual being confident that their favor. Ite can easily win the remaining two. The Mutual unquestionably Is the paragon club of Sew York, and their opponents come in as the champions of Williamsburgh, if not of Brooklyn. The Mutuals have the reputation of being most powerful batters, which undoubtedly they are, but this season they de not bat with suoh brilltanoy as they did last year, although they have a much better nine than then, and the batting done yesterday was of no inferior order. The rain shower which fell Jnst previous to the game, did not effeot the grounds In the least, but rather improved them.

A large and very enthusiastic assemblage, composed of ladies and gentlemen, emulators and admirers of the pnme, witnessed the contest with apparent satisfaction, which, together with tbe verdure and stalely trees surrounding the ground presented a pU mresque appearance. Sefor giving the details of the game we cannot refrain from making a few comments upon tbe players. Of the Eckford nine Mills and Woods were the bestat the bat and Beach and DeV) in the field. Beach's play behind! was excellent; filillo' pitching effective and careful, BuruB of the Mutual, pitched with much skill and with "Wansley as catcher he was ably assisted. MeMahon was the finest baUer in the game, and Harris at centre field did much execution.

The Eckfords were much elated at their late conquest over the Eagles and Atlantlos, and entered the contest with that buoyancy of spirit hich often ensm eB success. On the other hand the Mutuals were confident of victory, and played the gume wuh that coolness and steadiness that characterizes the old player; and the match played with smh a feeling as this couid not be otherwise than interesting, particularly when in the hands of as experienced players as these are. The commenced about 8:15, the Eckfords at the bat. Fibst Inning By fine batting and very loose playing of their opponents the Eckfords were enabled to score 6 runs, made by Mills, Grum, Iteacli. Woods, and Manolt the latter a home run on a lelt field hit.

Those who got out were Campbell.well headed off at first base, by Burns andBogart; Keachon a fine fly catch by Taylor, and De vyr on the fly by "Ward. Nothing daunted, the Mutuals took the bat, and before leaving scored 9 runs, made on a succession of splendid bits, the ball going way beyood the reach of the fielders. The flrst eight batters obtained runs in succession, Burns beiDg caught on the foul fly by Beach, soon followed by Brown, who tell victim to Beach on the foul bound, quickly succeeded by Ward, who got out in the same manner, not however before Bogart had made a run.leaving Taylor on the baao closed the innings. Score 9 to 5, Second Inninos Resulted in the Eckfords obtaining four runs, Mills, Campbell and Grum on good hits making one each, and McKinstry on a misB of Hunt also scored a run. But Manolt being caught by Brown on the Brand Itesch and Beach getting out at 1st base, left Woods on his 8d, and sent the Mutuals to the bat.

On the Eck ford side the following changes were made Keach, 3d base Mills, Devyr, 8 Grum, f. To Lbeir score of 9 the Mutuals added 2 runs, made by MeMahon, the unfortunates being Hunt, well put out at 3rd baee by Beach and Reach, Harris on the fly by Reach, and Burns on the foul fly by the catcher. Score 11 to g. Third Innings Matters looked doubtful and tbe Mutual players "spread themselves" and the result was a blar.k on the Ecktords score. McKinstry being taken on the fly by Harris made the flrrt out, Brown catching Mills on tbe fly saved him the trouble of running, and Manolt's ball lallmg in the hands of MeMahon he appropriated It to himself and putjthe striker out, closed the innings leaving Devi on Sd base.

Brown on the part of the Mutuals led with a "corker" to the left fleld, which gave him his Gd base, coming in on a passed ball. His successor, Bogart was caneht by Reach on the bound, Taylor in the same way by Devyr, and Ward who escaped being put out, was left on ihe 1st base, Wansley being caught on bound by Woods at 2nd base. Score 12 to 9. Fotjeth Inning Grum, Beach and Woods secured runs, and Campbell strucR out, whilst Devyr and McKinstry were put out by Harris on the bound and fly Only two runs were made in tnis inning on the Mutual side, those by Hunt and Harris, on field hits and passed balls A pretty fly catch by Manolt in tbia inning put MeMahon out, and a foul fly by Beach caused Burns to make way for Brown, who was caught out by Mills on the fly, thus closing tbe Inning. Score 14 to 12.

Fifth Inning It being Mills' strike, he claimed that privilege, and on a left fleld hit made his second base, aud subsequently came home. The next three strikes went out iu succession, Manolt on the bound by Hunt Campbell, at first base, by Wansley and Ward, Grum on tne bouna by Taylor. Tne Mutuals now went to the bat but their efforts were of no avail. Bogart was caught on the fly by Devyr, Taylor at first base, Campbtll catching the ball batted to him In time to head tbe striker off and Ward fell victim to Campbell, he catching him on the fly. Score 14 to 13.

6 Sixth Innings Having only one run to make be ven with their opponents, the Eckfords were in for their Bixtb innings in the best humor, and the result was that 4 luns were scored, those made by Beach, McKinstry Woods and Mills, the unlucky ones being Reach, he get? ting out at first base, Devyr on the bound by Brown, and Manolt battlBg a ball to Bogart, he fielded it to Ward, the ball reaching the baae in time to put the batter ont Biowo, BogSrt, Ward, Hunt, MeMahon and Burns, of the Mutual, scored one each; Bogart and MeMahon, on tremendous hits, making home runs. A fine bound catch by McKinstry put out "Wansley, and Harris was deprived ofa run by a fly catch by Grum, and Manolt taking the ball, Taylor batted to him on the fly, closed the innings and brought the figures from 14 to 20 and from 18 to 1T7 Sevkniu Ibninos Campbell appeared as flrst batter and was put out at flrst base; Grum obtained a run as also did "Woods and Reach; Beach making the second out, being disposed of at 1st base by Burns and Ward Devyr on a left fleld hit attempted to make a run, but MeMahon catching the ball on the fly compelled the Eckfords to take the fleld. In thiB innings the Eckfords changed the position of Devyr McKinstry as. Ward, the first striker on the Mutual side, was beautifully taken by Devyr on the fly, and his successor. Wansley, on a fine left field hit, made his second bas and in course of time came home, and Hunt beine caught by Beach on the foul bound left ihe coast clear for MeMahon, who made his 3d base on a splendid centre field hit, and on a wild throw from Mills to Reach came in.

Harris followed, on a left fleld hit made hie 2 and 3a basts, and attempting to run in was put out at home hae by Mills, closing the innings amidst the applause of the spectators. Score, Eckford 20; Mutual 22 Eight Inning. Something must be done was evident the game was nearly at an end, and the Eckfords were yet the minor number, and with this in view they went to the bat, and before leaving caused 5 runs to be credited to them. Mills, Campbell, Grum and McKinstry making one each, an outburst of enthusiasm greeting each" as he cume in. Manolt was put out on the 1st base, liench by Taylor on the fly, and Devyr by Hunt in the same way, closed the innings.

In tins inning, McKinstry again look the field and Devyr played short stop. The Muiual's first batter this inning was llurns His bull was taken on the bouud by Mi Kitistry, Ilrown by Deryr in the same way, and Taylor on the foul bound by Beach, ended the innings, leavin" liogurt on 3d base. Score 22 to 25. Wikhi Inning The glorious uncertainty of baseball is proverbial among bail players, and although the prospects or the Eektoid were very fuir, vet they were bv no liieai.B certsiu. 22 to 20 was the BcorV, and with a general excitement elevated to the highest pilch the EukfordB wrnt to the bat, McKinstry, their first striker ou a ball paBt Hum, (which he attempted to stop with his cap) made his I but was subsequently put out at the base by Waueley and Brown.

The next three batsmen obtained mop, Grum making the second out, beine caught on ihe fly by Harris; Beach on a left field hit made his 1st bate where he was by Woods being Ciuht on tbe fl) by Bums. At this juncture the eutnusiasrn was iniense, and the Mutuals goiDg to the bat, every action was watched as tagtrlv as it the fate of the couu. try o.pendfd upon tbe result. Ward of the Mmual ou a lett Held hit made his 1st, and on a passed ball his Sd base. Wansley was taken on the foul fly by Beach Hunt was caught by Devyr on the fly, and MeMahon on a staving left fle'd hit made a home run, nod Harris, the next baiter, being put out atlst base closed the gain, ri suiting in a victory for the Brooklyn boys by a score of 2S to 24.

The 70lh doubtless will have an opportunity to tbo themselves shortly after the 15th of the present month, but whether as a cavalry and artillery regiment, or as infantry, will depend upon circumstances. We are aware that the 70th desired To go for three months at the commencement of the war, but would not be taken as cavalry on account of the expense. Hfind Your Own Business.

To the Editor of the Brooklyn EagU: Dear Sir The incarceration of an old resi denter and highly respected member of our community, in a police station cell during a whole Sabbath day, and far into the night, on the pretext of enforcing an obnoxious sumptuary law has excited very general indiguation all over the city. I allude to the case of Mr. Van Or den, of No. 377 Myrtle avenue, as stated over that gentleman's signature, in the Eagle, about a week ago. Public opinion pronounces the act of the policeman to be a gross outrage upon personal liberty, in view of the dicta laid down in the premises by certain eminent judges of New York city.

This is a matter of some importance, certainly, and if the policeman has" exceeded his duty, he should be visited by such marks of the displeasure of the Police Commissioners as will cause him to refrain from all such exercises of "little brief authority" (it fa to be hoped) hereafter. There are sources of irritation enough, Mr. Editor, without Paul Prying domiciliary visits or needless interference with the business arrangements that are absolutely necessary to enable citizens to support the heavy pressure of war taxation. It were wise not to provoke "indignation meetings." Tours, H. A Card from Mr.

Jewell. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle Nbw Tore, Aug. 5, 1862. In reply to your criticism upon the New Tork JWowre editoria! vindication of the secession charge by reference lo my army cards in tha New Tork Times, in which I claim no man lives "more lojal, more energetic and determined with his life it new be in sustaining the Union Instead of visitiDg Washington, as charged by you, to inaugurate a movement for the arming of I stand ready to head a list of the people to pnt down that man or partv who would make the war a sole measure of interference with slavery rather than the real object preservation of the Union. Our safety as a nation is only in a strong force, a Union war, with a final restoration of the Democratic principles upon which our Government is founded, and when restored from the ranks of the people upon a basis of love of country, will secure harmony and Constitutional rights for all sections.

To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle Aluck a day, that It should come to this The love of home is stronger than the love of glory ratrlotismlis not to be stirred up in men's breists even by the proffer ol liberal bounty, which rarely fails to draw. Now, sir, allow me to make a suggestion. Our system of recruiting is exces Ia lm nt Somf of U6' 1 knjw ba witnessed the thrilling and successful system of enlistment practised in the British army.

Recruiting parties are despatched to every fair and market to beat up" for recruits. The party usually consists of a sergeant, two or more privates, and th Inevitable fife and drum, the effect of which is magical upon the rustic swainocrasy. Tne military, each and every one of tbem, sport a monster cockade, and have quite a martial appearance. Having gone the round of the market pUce or tair ground, the party poll up at a public house surrounded by a crowd of frieze coats. The sergeant, with drawn sword, recites tbe sovereign's proclamation, appeals to the loyalty of the subjects, and holds out tbe tempting bait of a "gold chain or a wooden leg," winding up with an invi mun bojB'' to step in and drink her Majesty's health.

Tbe boys have no objection and can see no harm iu accepting tbe enlistment milling, which, of course, is binding. Before sundown jou will Bee tbe little party of the morning expanded into some fifiv or sixty strapping fellows, all wearing coefcadeB "food for tunpowder." Let the plan be tried io this exigency.

i INTENSE EXCITEMENT. The Arraingement of the Parties are Held to Bail Yesterday afternoon, one of the most disgrace, fnl riots, which Ja ever happened in thii city, took plac at lne tobacco manufactory of T. Wat e01 In Sedgewick street, between Dsgraw and Harrison streets, and which, but for the timely appearance of the police, aided bysomi citizens, mitrht have resulted in a most iearful tragedy. The riot occurred between a pErty of some four hundred white men, residents cf the locality, and a number of negroes, who are em. ployed in the tobacco factory.

The following are the facts in the case as far as our reportercould ascertain them from different sources There are two tobacco factories in the locality adjoining i other, one of them belonging to Mr. Watson and the other owned by Mr. lrd. At the establishment of the latter thjre are some two hundred and twenty persons, consisting; ot men, bojs, and girls employed, and of these one hundred and sixty are white and fifty colored. The while men attend to the pressing and general manufacture the tobacco and the ilortd people are employed to make the to bicco into rolls, a branch of business in irhich the fortman of the establishment says thsy are more exyert than others, having been used, some of ihtm, to do it in the "South.

1'he whits men working in this factory earn an average of $lo per week, while the colored men generally aver aie $14 per week. The white girls, on tha other hand, earn from to $9 per week and the colored girls from $2 to $6. In the factory of Mr. Watson, where the riot occurred there are seventy five persons employed altogether, of whom fiity are colored and twenty five white. This factory was started some eight years siDce.

Some of the negroes employed in it at the present time, have been there since the commencement of the establishment, and in the establishment of Mr. Lorriliard, which has been in operation for eight years, negroes have always been employed as at the present, but no disturbance hes ever before occurred between them and the white people. The colored people who work in the factory, are none of them residents of the locality, but reside mostly in New York, and in the outskirts of this city, and it is said that for some time past, considerable ill feeling has exisied between them and the people residing In the vicinity of the tobacco factories, most of whom are Irish, but nothing of a serious nature occurred until Saturday night last, when two men who work in a rozin factory at the foot of Sedgwick street, were returning home from their work an stopped at Grady's liquor store, in tbe neighborhood of the factories to take a drink. Two colored men were standing in the doorway as they were going in and one of the white men asked the colored men to move out of the way, and allow them to get in the store. One of the negroes replied that they would not more tha they had as much right there as any other men and he was about to say more, when one of the white men knocked him down.

This led to a Bent which was promptly stopped by the police at the time, but the utmost excitement pervaded the residents of the neighborhood, and the most extravagant stories were circulated, and the matter was talked over by the white working people of the neighborhood, and the most improbable stories told to excite their rage. It was said that white girls had been insulted by the negroes, but as far as our reporter could ascertain, there was no foundation for such stories. At all events the excitement kept increasing, on Sunday and eirly yesterday morning Mr. Hignei, the foreman of Loiillard's factory, was notified by a friend of his that the negroes working in the factory would probably be attacked during the day by the excited population of the place. This was about 7 o'clock, and as the negroes came to their work be sent them home again to avoid the trouble.

About o'clock two white men came to him and asked to look over the factory to see if there were any negroes there, Mr. Hignet told them that the negroes had all gone home, when they left. Mr. Hignet then went into Watson's factory arid advised the coloied workers there to he was afraid they would be attacked, but they declined to do so. A large number of themwere present at the emancipation celebration, in tfyr.

tl avenne Park, and there were only about JO in tbe place at the time, of which 5 were meu and the remainder women and girls. At 12 o'clock all tbe white employees ol the factory went home to their dioner, leaving no one in the building excepting the negroes, who brought their dimiers wirh them from borne, and eat thein in the work shop while the others were absent. This was the time fur the attack, and about half past twelve a party ot seme 400 men and boys, some of them ery much intoxicated, came rushiog towards the factory irom the neighborhood of Columbia and Harrison streets, and immediately surrounded the building, while Eome of them entered the grout floor to look for the negroes. Oilbers Oats and Byrnes, of the 43d precinct, arrived about the same ime, and tried to prevent the men from entering the factory, but they unable to do so. The negroes, who were all on the upptr floor, barricaded the stairway rith boxes, boards, and then as their assailmts made their appearance at the bottom, wonld lurj everything within thtir reach at them.

In this way they managed to keep their assailants olf until the arrival of Inspector Folk with a strmg detachment of policemen from she 41st and 41th precincts, under command of Captains Smith md Powers. While the negroes io the inBide of the buiWog were keeping their assailants at bay, the ouieiue commenced a general onslaught on he building with brickbats and stones, smashini ili the windows, and when they found it impossiile to get at the negroes in any other way, one of he rioters proposed that the building should i)e burned down, aDd a rush was made for a lage pot of liquorice and whiBkey, which, under tie supposition that it was tar, was emptied and tempted to be set fire to, but the rioters succeeded in starting a slight flame, which soon extinguished by the police. While ofliser Donnelly was standing at the foot of the s.air keeping the rioters back, he received a severe cii in the head from a box thrown by one of the groes at the rioters. The police finally succeed ed in forcing the rioters from the locality aud ar rested tbe following Patrick Keentin, Alicbae Maher, William Morris, John Long, Cnas ker (colored), Chae. Baylers, Thomas Clark and Jos Flood.

A strcng detachment of police were stationec in the loealitj this morning, in anticipation another outbreak, but as none of the colorec people employed in either of the factories cimt to work there was no disturbance. Various rumors were afloat in the neighborhood this morning, the most important of which was ttiat the negroes employed in the factory had been engaged all last night in arming themselves, in case of an attack. Our reporter was informed that over DO of them had gone to a gunsmith's shop in Court street, and left orders lor pistols to be farntshedj this morning. Oar reporter went to the place in! The Anti Negro Riots. The conflict between the white and black races has extended to our own doors, and yesterday gave occasion for a lawless outbreak rare in the annals of oux quiet city.

It is not worth while inquiring into the immediate cause of the quarrel between the white and black laborers of South Brooklyn. That the negroes were any more offensive than usual, or were offensive at all, is not probable. If the quarrel had its origin, as some of the reporters state, in the unwarrantable insolence of the colored men, it would be deprived of all significance. Bat it is not so. The people do believe riehtlv or wronclv that the political action of this country has, of late, Deen shaped too much in the interest of the negro.

Plans are under discussion, and are seriously urged by the highest wFich the white men ol the country believe will bring the negro into direct competition with them. The conflict naturally begins at the point most liable to suffer irom such competition. Eat it does not end there, la such a state of feeling it rtquires no insolence on the part of the unlucky negro to give rise to a quarrel. Making one allowance 'or the condition of the i he two classes, there is but little difference in the quarrel between the colored factory laborers of South Brooklyn and tne white laborers that they compete with, and that which took place between the doctors of the Kings County Medl cal Society, and a colored medical practitioner, few days ago. The Society refused admission to the colored doctor because of his color.

Tney do not watt to associate with him. So far as they can they disqualify him for Hid tns Kings County Medical Society beea composed of uneducated laborers, they would have hustled Dr. Ray into the street for venturing to claim fel. lowsbip with them. With a clearer sense of the duty at every man to obey the law, they adopt a ridiculous subterfuge, and disqualify me doctor Their mode of action was different, and after all scarcely entitled to more respect; but the feeling whicn actuated ihtm is the same.

There are laws which govern the actions of men stronger than any upon the statute book. It is not within the power of the law maker to place negroes on terms of equality with white men The never varying edict of God has set a barrier between them, and only at the cost of the dagra dation of both races and the final annihilation of both, can this barrier be bridged over. The same papers which record the riot in South Brooklyn publieh the fact that even at this moment, when the pillars of the Republic are rocking to their loundations, the President of the nation refuses to accept the services of negro soldiers, because even in such a crisis the white soldier will not submit to Have tne negro stand beside him on terms of equality. Tne white man will give his heart's blood for his country, but he will not prove unfaithful to the instinct within him which revolts at the association "which is sought to be thrust upon him. In the knowledge of this fact, the President refuses negro co operation.

The policeman of this city, whose duty it is to quell disturbance, and who have always been courage ous in doing so, wavered yesterday for the first time, because, under the blue coat, as under the ragged jacket of the laborer, the same blood runs While condemning, as every man must condemn' such acts as those of yesterday, we would be w. laithfttl to our own race and blood if we did not at the same time record anything which can be of fered in palliation of the offence. The unfortunate negro has reason to pray, if ever man had, to be saved from the attentions of his pretended friends. With the knowledge of the prejudice against him, nowhere stronger than among those who profess to be his greatest admirers, they had no right to place him in a position where he must of necessity suffer. If the contest is forced upon the white men of the nation there can be but one result.

The real friend of the colored man never would have placed him in a position where he would come in immediate antagonism with the white and superior race. There is no excuse, however, for the brutai outrage of yesterday: What do the men who made the attack on the negroes yesterday propose thai the unfortunate colored people shall do? They must be allowed to earn a livelihood with the rest of us, as long as they are here They cannot lie down and die, and we believe no class desire to bear the burthen of their support in that situation to which they will be driven if the lawless acts of yesterday be repeated. There is no manhood shown in the attack of a crowd of white men on a few defenceless ne. groes. The negro has been made, through no agency of his own.

the cause of terrible national and individual suffering. The duty of the white man is to combat, patiently, persistently, legally the bad acts of the bad men who are unfaithful alike to both races, and who care little for the troublesjof either, so long as they subserve their private interests. This is the country of the white man still, and we believe we can in good time, and by lawful means, secure every guarantee that it will always be so. Should that hope prove delusive, it wilL then be for us to find a country for our home where the negro shall cease from troubling and the abolitionfsts are at rest. Lawless attacks like that of yesterday can effect no good purpose.

As we lay claim to a higher standard of manhood than the nsgro le; ns stow it by obeyiog implicitly the laws which we ourselves have made, laboring in the way ourselves have devised for warding off the evil3 which we apprehend. There is infinitely less excuse for the riot here than for those which have taken place in the cities of the border free States In that section there has been an influx of negroes, and a direct diminution of the fruits of the white laborer. Tne recent troubles have not added a single negro to the population of Brooklyn, and the riot of yes. terday finds no justification in any change that has taken place in the public policy. The remedy we seek is to be had through the ballot bor, and God favoring us, in our own good time we shall secure it in this way.

General Si inola informs us that Lieutenant Charles L. Frothingham, who advertises for recruits to fill up the Third Regiment of the Empire Brigade, has never been oflidally recognized but that, on the contrarv. w.w cm missed from the regimem at the time that Col Croft was superceded by Col. Kingsley. Froth mgham has no connection watever with the Bri gadeand General Spinola considers the statement in the advertisement he published last Sunday as piece of Ebeer impudence.

'The Journal of Commerce of this morning says: We are indebted to Hon. El'jih Ward, of tnis city, and Hon. Moses F. OdelJ, of Brooklyn, for much valuable information, and many interesting documents, bearing upon commercial legislation during the recent session in Congress, and since its close. Our merchants owe these gentlemen a debt of gratitude, likewise, for their careful attention to the details of the Tariff and Tar and their efforts, not aB successful as could have been, desired, to procure such amendments aa the the Interests of commerce required." draft is now inevitr in any case, there is ver little doubt but thc the fir8t quota of this will be made up the 15th without resorting to conscription.

It win not be forgotten that those who are drafted will a0t receive the inducements now offered, therefore, wir young men, who will probably have to go In any case, will come forward to secure the bounties offered, as well as to escape the odium ot beiDg forced to go. No time is specified for the draft under the call for the additional three hundred thousand men, but it will probably take place soon after the loth of August. The conscripts under the la3t call will probably be put under military instruction at the earliest possible moment. It is not worth while now discussing the wisdom of the President's action. Indeed, on the subject of a draft, nothing but "Hobson'B choice" was lei's him.

At the rate recruiting was going, the armies of the Union would have been annihilated before they received the reinforcements they needed. The draft will have one good effect; it will compel the Abolitionists, who have up to this time failed to respond to the calls of their country, to shoulder a musket. Secretary Stanton's new regulations should by all means include Abolitionists of all ages. If there are three hundred thousand of them, then the patriotism of the country will not be put under any obligations whatever. They are forever howling that our troops will not fraternize with the negroes as they ought; by going themselves they will have an opportunity to treat the slaves with becoming consideration.

We presume these fellows are trying to divert attention from themselves by insisting that the Northern disunionists shall go first. TaiB wont do, gentlemen, there is not in the North, outside of the abolition party, enough of men to form a corporal's guard wno entertain disunion sentiments. We differ here at the North about tbe best policy to puisne, but we are all except the abolitioniBtc for the Union. Tne abolition leaders have been discouraging enlistments ever since the last call was issued. The Tribune is daily throwing "wet blankets" on the popular enthusiasm, ana now, wnen we commence to draft, they whine like naughty and sob out "let the disunionists go first." The abolitionists do not disguise their opposition to the government 6ince the President refused to violate his cocstitutional obligations and carry cut their hob.

Listen to a correspondent who figures in Lloyd Garrison's Liberator "Mb. Gakeibon, Our local papers In formus, the other day, that among the speakers at a recent war meetin" in Leicester was Kev. Mr. May but as they did not inform us what he said, it was an open, and I think a fair sup positlan, that he, as an old and tried Abolitionist, wno had long labored under the standard of No Union with Slaveholders," "No support of or complicity wish a pro slavery Government," spoke against any support of this Government, and to discourage enlistments. Bat I am grieved to learn from an authentic source, that he is actually using his influence to secure enliatmsnts under the recent call of the President, affirming it to be the daty of every man who can to enlist, and that he would go Maine It were he physically able.

I am so astounded that I almost doubt i bether this can be the same Samuel May who has for so many years been the active and devoted General Agent ol the American and Massachusetts Anti Slavery Societies. The names and residences ol the two are identical, but can it be possible that they are one and the same person Can you, Mr. Garrison, tell me if it is so? I think ihe members and friends of thete Societies have a right and ougnt to be Informed aa io this position of their General Agent, if it is him." "How absolute the knave is." In the same taper, a correspondent records what he calls the weighty words of Mr. Pilsbnry as follows: "Hasten back to a recognition of your own manhood, of your divine origin and destiny. Believe yourselves too sacred to be shot down like dogs by Jeff.

Davis and bis niyrmldocs, and all in the cause of slavery! Die, raiher, at home, in ihe arms of loving moihers and altec tii'iate sisters. Nay, be Bhot down, if you must, at home and die like a Christian, and have a decent burial, raiher than go and die in the cause of an Union and Govern bueed on slavery, which should never have been formed and which are nlialered all over with the curses of God, for ihe wrongs, outrages and cruelties, it has inflicted on millions ot his poor children. Speak in tonos of thunder to the Government, until it hear, and declares a policy and purpose of such a character, aa mat, if yu must die in battle, it shall at least be in the ciuse ol jusiice and libeny." Mr. Pilsbury's "weighty words" should receive the attention of the government. Where is tee justice ot locking up a few petty tradesmen who talk nonsense over their beer, while such fellows as these are at large.

We do not recoov mend that they Ehould be sect to Fort Lafayette" Never until we lose all respect for law shall we advocate the turning of a key upon any nun for opinion's sake, but the iesident might insist on the abolitionists tak'mg a haDd in the war, and if he could direct one of our Generals to bring them where they wonld get "well peppered," the country aid the President would breathe all the freer for getiiDg rid of them. We understand that there are very loudmouth, ed patriots in this city who are trying to invent Feme pretext for dodgtDZ. They are quite anxious that somebody else shall go. This wont do; le! us have a fair shake. It is the only way to secure the cheerful assent of the people in such an emergency.

We have been informed by a gentle, man this morning, that in one ward in the city there are but eleven names recorded in one entiie 6treet, reaching from Court street to the river. This was net done proposely, but it.is necessary to rectify such mistakes. Wre beg to call attention to the following communication in this connection To Ihe Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle It was stated in the Journal of Commerces fewmorn ing's since, in relation to the enrollment of the Brooklyn militia, "that the Directory seems to have been the most prolific source for obtaining the names of those liable to do military duty." Thousands of young men have been omitted, while every business man has been duly It is true not only that "thousands of young men" have been omitted, but whole streets and districts are scarcely represented upon the roll. Omissions of thi, character afford good grounds for the entire list, anu indicate me necessity lor a new enrollment that shall be Impartial, thorough and just. An enormou9 draft is now to be resorted to, and an imperfect enrollment like the present will be outrageously unjust, and mtiK excite intense and merited dissatisfaction.

'mm the roll as it is, thousands of names are stricken by every sort of excuse, and the feeling soems to be no what si rvice can 1 render, but how can I escape respond eibility. The roll, thus imperfect and depleted, will it is belh'vul, scarcely sufficient to supply the needed quota. In the Senatorial district to which the first, second iin third wards belong, it is doubtful whether the ml) will contain the requisite number of names. I press tlii3 niiit'T upon those who are interested. Examine for your i clvt aud that tun, speedily.

An enrollment mut be made that is entitled to public courldence. Compare the names upon the roll with those registered upon the noil Ufa nnvf'n ilislric', and you will find in most instances a startling ilispari'y. This matter must not rest, and unless there can bi some public assurance that a fair anil candid revision will he made, steps mu8t be taken to bring the matter in form before the proper authorities. The raakinz of this enrollment has undoubtedly been paid for, and there mud be some one icIwh, duty it is to ice and know that it is lull and complete. I call upon the military officers in command here, upon the Myor of the city, umn ih committees uppointed to aid enlistments, to see that iiis lice is done to the people.

Ju" That they arc willing to Jo their daty in this crisis, d0.abX' "ol be selected" by subordinates, while thousands equally liable are psr nulted to eacape responsibility. Oitoiih, All of the above named were arrested on the charge of riot, except Mr, Kenan, who was complained of on suspicion of arson as in the manner referred to elsewhere. The friends of Mr. Kenan need scarcely be told that he repudiates the charge in its entirety, and is confident that he will establish to the satisfaction of 'the examin. ing magistrate and the public, that he has had no complicity with the breach of the peace which is complained of.

The prisoners were represented by ex Judge Morris, and Messrs. B. Hughes, Blatchly and Veeder. The case being called on, the Justice intimated that he had telegraphed to the District Attorney with a view to secure his presence as In the interest of the State. That gentleman did not ap near, and in bis absence Mr.

Charles Kelsey, undertook the office of puDiic prosecutor. Ihe counsel for the defendants moved that they be admitted to bail, whereupon Mr. Kelsev made a haranene. in thn of which he insisted, energetically, that "riots emoracea treason, murder and arson." Mr. Hughes, counoal for defendants, interposed and reminded the Justice that Mr.

Kelsey was not an attorney of that, or any other Court; neither he (Mr. nor his clients Wfirft crnl no tn be brow beaten by wealth, no matter its magnitude, nor were they to be put do vn in an open court ot justice oy a position based merely upon a pecuniiry status. would not be frowned down by the power of wealth, nor by the sneers of questionable position. The Justice interposed by observing that so far as ne was concerned, no observations or considerations could swerve him from an impartial discharge cf the duty incumbent udou him. anri htn Honor directed that order be preserved in the tjcurt.

This produced a lull as it were, and Mr Hughes takiDg his seat remarkad to Mr. Kelsey senior, "I am a more honest man than you A voice from amODg tbe crowd proclaimed, "you must be a thief, if ou are not more honest than old Kelsey." This bblly was followed by laucn ter and applause, which the officers of the court endeavoured to suppress. Order being restored the Justice adjourned the investigation of the matter, till next Monday morning at ten o'clock in the meantime Mr. Kenan has given bonds iu 8500 to answer, as also have several of his cc defendants. 1 he Alleged Abortion Case in the Eastern District.
