At tbe commencement of the , teat year, the paper was enlarged to moot tbe ierryased demands of bnsfoess consequont upon the completion of the , railroad. 'At the beginning of this year • Still farther enlargement has become aeceeeary, in order that s sufficient amount of reading matter may be given to ■obieribera, while the demands of the , business community lo the way of advertising, may also be accommodated While this qiilargrmeot adds about two additional columns to the else of the paper, It also increases tbe expense of pabUcation. printing paper now costs jnit twice as much ai before the 'war, while every article nsed In the publication of a newspaper bae also Increased^ In the same proportion. The prico of] subscription to the" "Wave" however,^ will not be increased, but si a number of snbeeriptiona for the past year, are Still Mtstaodiag, it Is rnnpactfially nrgvd upon all to liqeidate thair accounts. It will be tbe aim of tbe publisher in i the present, as it has been in tbe jfost year, to make the paper worthy of the snpport of the people of Cape Msy, end a fnll equivalent for all tbe money aakrd . . for it. BOISTV TO URAFTM MK.V. Several connties io this State ere pay- j ing to drafted men, who either enter tbe ser» ice, or furnish aabtiituie*. a sum of | money equal J.r> the bounty offered by tbe county to volnoteers. All persons who eolfr tba service are credited on thb [ quota, while the payment of the exenip- 1 tion fee does not carry with it eny decrease of the quota It is therefore preferable to have men enter the service, rather than hare them pay the exemption fee. Tbe priociple of paying a drafted man who either goes or furnishes a substitute, Is exactly tbe tame te paylag bounty to volunteers before the draft. A movement is agitated to Call Ob the Board of Chtften Freeholders of this county to pay soch bonnty to those who eater the service. Tbe Board meets on the 1 in h Inst., and it is believed that no opposition will arise to arise to such action. The eentiment of tbe people thronghout the county, la nnderatood to ba onanimooe in lit favor. Inr Mall Arrangement*. The people of Cape' Island are to hava increased mail facilities, coramen i eing with the Brst of J one. Tao trains ara to ba run daily each w«j, each train carrying a mail. Tba offices along the route will be served uy the train leaving Philadelphia in the morning at 6 o'clock, arriving at Cape Island at 11 A M.,and returning to Philadelphia In the afternoon, leaving Cape Island at 8.15 P.M., while the other train will only carry a through mail between Cape Isltnd and Philadelphia.

1 ~ TIB klATT. fl We give herewith a few more points : in regard to thn draft which may be a ' found useful to those desirieg informs- t! 1 tion on tbe subject. This is now the v ' intcrrsting, as it ba§"been officially C I sweoeecrd that aaothcr draft will take t ; place on the first of July. . a In regard to the payment of tbe eotn- , mutation foe, tbe language of the lew la j that "aoeb payment of money abail ope- ^ rate only to relieve aoch person from ' draft in filling that quota, and hie name ! shall be retained on tbe roll in filling j future quotas ; bnt in no instance shall the exemption of any person on C account of the payment of commutation money for the procuration of t a substitute, extend beyond one year; - but at the end of one year, in every soch ' case, the name of any person so exempt- ' ed ahull be enrolled again, if not before returned to tbe enrollment list onder t tbe provisions of this section." c When a person who has been drafted ' claims exemption on occount of non- ' residence, he most prove tbe following | points : . ^ 1 Ilia i-on-re»ideaae io tbe district where he claims exemptioo at tbe time i of bis enrollment therein. ( 2 What bis place of actus! residence i was at the time when the enrollment ; therein was made I 3 Tbet he was, or is, actually enrolled, and has been drafted, or is liable ( to draft in bis place of actual residence. , All persons are liable to enrollment , and draft in some district, and errors in , . spelling the names, or mistakes in noting < > the occnpstion or residence of those ■ liable to military doty, will not entitle ' ! them to exemption from tbe draft. In the matter of substitutes, any per- ' son drafted into the military service of ! the Uuited States, may, before, tbe time . ; fixed for bis appearance for doty at the , ' drafting rendezvous, furuisb an accepts- , b!e substitute. "If such substitute is ■ not liable to draft, the person furnishing i him shell be exempt from draft during 1 : the time for which such substitute is not ! liable to draft, not exceeding tbe term ' for which be wee drafted ; and if such ' substitute is liable to draft, the name of r j tbe pi rson furnishing him shall be liable i to draft in filling future quotas." Sailors can be taken as substitutes for drafted men, inch sailors to go into tbe ' ) narai service for three-years, principals not to receive exemption papers till they bring to Board of Enrollment certificates from the authorised naval recruiting officers, that the substitutes btve been actually accepted and received into tbe J navy. Tbe law icquiree the Board of Enroll- ( ment to enroll all persons whose names have been omitted, all who arrive at the ( age of 20 before tbe draft, all discharged ( soldiers who have not been o the service ( two years during tbe present war, all | persons exempt onder previous act, and t not under this. Tbey are also required to strike from the roll all who shall er- , rive at tbe age of forty-fire. | The notices to drafted men io Cape May county require them to report et * Millville on the 28th, ?9lh and 30th of Juno The impression prevails that , tbe»e notices srq for the purpose of ex- . | smieatioa as to fitness for service, but , j tbe accompanying extracts from Irtteri ) ; of P .1 Gray, E<q„ to our County r Clerk, Mr Jonathan Hand, would seem g to indicate that the drafted men ere to report at that lime for doty. Jndge j Gray is a member of tbe Board of Eu- . rollment, and ahhoogb not officially communicated, the information most be , authentic. In jastice to tbo drafted ] men, some iniclligence on this subject should hevn been communicated to tbem through the papers oUhe district.
