MODUS OPERANDI OF FEDERAL RECRUITING.
5heNew Ytrk corrcspondfct of the London
Daily News, who must be considered excellent
authority on evt rythipg that concevns the inter
ests of his employers, makes the following curi
ous revelations in an attempt to vindicate the
Washington Government from the charge of re
cruiting:
“In the first place, fifteen dollars were otfcred
in Now York to ‘anybody bringing in a rec uit.*
The objcct of this wos to intcjrest ermebody in
doing the indispensable work ol cacvaFsir.g, of
hunting up those who were likely to join the
army, and in pcrFuoiing them to join. This
work has to be done by somebody. In England,
It IS done by oflFcers and non ccmmissioned offi
cers, t?pccially detailed for this service, and di
rected (see tlie late tdrcular uf ttc J>aVc vt 3«m-
hridge,) to frequent fairs, msrkete, and all other
places resorted to by i»^le or adventurous or needy
meu; and in spite of their exertions, it is found
no easy matter to keep the British army, small as
it is, up to the required strength. Suppose it
were suddenly raised to six hundred thousand
men, end that gaps of tremendous size were be
ing made in it by the casualties and disease of a
bloody war, do you suppose the regular recruit
ing service would be the only agency to which
the Government would resort to keep its ranks
full? Do you imagine that it would be saved the
necessity of canvassing altogether by the sponta
neous rush into the service, as private soldiers, of
the ‘genteel’ people, who are now filled with such
horror because the Americans make no scruple
about employing mercenaries?
“The brokers here, however, not only pocket
the ‘hand money’ for bringing the rccruit, but
they, in general, manage to share the bounty also.
That they should be able to do so is a striking illus
tration of the simplicity oi the irhss of those
whom they eulist; but they do so to such an ex
tent that more than one of them in this eitj have
made large fortunes by the buf>ine.«s They hunt
up the recruits all over the country, explain to
them what may he had by enlisting, offer to as
sist them in getting it, bully tiiem or make them
drink till they comply, advance them money to
bring them to the provost marshal’s office, show
them the proper office to apply t», and, in fact,
make use of the thousand advantages which a
shrewd, city bred knave generally possesses over
country bumpkins, and especially “raw Irish
men,” to enable them to get hold of a large share
ot the money. I have heard of cases in which,
out of ?700, the broker pocketed 8600; and I
think there were few men enlisted through the
instrumentality of the brokers iu this city in
which the recruit managed to retain over 3300
ot 84J0. You will see from this that when ni;,n
are called for by the 200,000 or 300,000, the
profit# ot the business must be enormous. The
slave trade can hardly compare with it. If abro
ker only hroughl in one man a week he was rich

Macon, Ga., vas visited by a severe lain, and the
night following the city bridge, a rcble structure,
that Etrctched acrosi? th'-- Ocaulgee, broke in two
in the middle, owinsc to the dipplaccment ct a
few stones in the centrf: pier. The rains had noE

the bridge was consi^pr- d 2 strange rvent, ae f«'W

the bottom of n solid s^orc pior, rocks that had
withstood the s-ioruis of more than thirty years.
And yet such was the fact; and while the pier
stood iofcly and alinost infact in the middle of
the river, the bri.-jge r arted asnnier, and t) e
ends driftt d aro'ind to the barks, where they ro-

keeper handed him the dickered egg, but with
