During ihe late campaign in Msryi a ferroer- of Washington county waited upon General-Howard and after ; tellidg him that ibe rebels bad taken nearly all of his flour, Lug, crops, 4<J-. ai d that as tb«s federal army were then on his place, ha would nr- ! «s*nrily suffer other losses, psked if there was not a prospect that he woo Id' rennrorrutrd for the losses sustained. General Howard advised him, after lie had taken hi* h*r*e»t, to make a careful calculation of hit Iomcs and present the statement to the government; oud, addeded the general, "if they do not poy giro it tu them on the same terms that 1 gave my right arm— without soy eoropoiisaiioa ' With the exception of the animportaot outbreak in Boston, tho draft has bten completed in Massachusetts without resistance or disturbance. If is olso nearly completed in Maine, Rhode Island and Connecticut, and is -rapidly progressing in Pennsylvania It is remarkable that the few cases of riot in connection with the draft have been : confined to large cities, the raraL neigbj borboods submitting to th* la* not onJ ly cheerfully, bat Iraqumtly with msnij fesutions of genuine entbosiasm.
