" Will yott inform me, through the columns ok; our pa per, whether they (the defeated officers) will Ki reduced to the ranks, ot will they retain their connissioiis. v The above information will enable, fne and many others id go prepared with suitabley:fthes, &c, to fill the position assigned us. Respectfully, G. In reply to the foregoing and to the enquiries of sere ml others onjthe Fame subject, we ean only state that the General Order referred to is very, explicit. It requires the defeated officers between the agea of 18 and 85 to'report themselires as "subject to con scription." It evidently uWiiq -cognizance of the .rank of such officers. It leoeU them in our opinion. Besides, we rather think the "defeated officers' not now in service hold po commissions worth a copper. They arc out of office and their commissions are worthies. The conscript law does not take int6 the service any officers Conscripts may become officer, but it will be after they are drafted into organized bodies. Still we believo the practice of the government is to make drill masters of the defeated officers where prac ticable, and to set them to work to discipline the raw conscript! iu the several camps of instruction. At least so we have heard. But at all events, the ''defeated officers" can make no terms with the conscript law. It "gathers them iu" as it does those who have never been ia office. ; ; For the State Journal. . The Conscript Law. :. , I Camp, August 20th, 18G2. Messrs. Editors: In view of the passage of anoth er Conscript act, I .&sire to call your atteution, and the attention of those in authority,' to a class of per sons that seem to have heretofore been entirely over looked. I looked to see the preaS spt-ak out upon the subject, but so far as I have seen they have not done so. Those to whem I refer are tho uumber who ha l employed substitutes ; iu the temporary call that was made for the militia, several mouths past before, the fall of Newborn. Now does thU eutitle these men to final exemption from service? I rather think not. The kid gloved igeuiry are still at large, lordiug; it over the country, many of them speculating upou the wants ol the soldiery,. 1 Again: in the State ofNorth Carolina there is a certain class of inoa who, seeking, early 'notoriety, have had themselves appointed magistrates., thinking when they grew up, that they could uevcr be looked Henn as men until tiiey got the Enquire . attached to t.n;ir names. Now' this 'embraces a large class in laany of the comities, cT good fighting men; in many 'f them,4uu, the enormous numberot one hundred and ltjj.vardst Now, sir, could it ever have been ineaut ly Congress that this large n iu;ber should be retaiu t. i at hoineto-Jliold tiie courts of the couaty, where in -'I'.i'eutly there is uol one jury case, tried ?

If this attracts the thoughts of any ol the members of that body, the object of the writer will have been ao complished. , Very respectlullv, A bOLDIfcR. ' Froni the Wilmington Journal. " How do we sfond in North Carolina ? Before this war had c minenccd. and even alter it "had progressed for, sometime, the issue possessed - ar - character essentially different from that which it is n jw too evidently assuming. V The same motivesvanl considerations hat might have caused the North to pause at first, or might have I ' paused her to retrace her steps at an early period of the war, would have little weight now, because fiexer jwssi.ins have beon aroused and fresh complications have been introduced. t Wounded pride embittered Ji ite the desire for revenge Ivivc been superadded , V Jthe other considerations with which both parties entered upon this war. At first the North itself disavowed the idea of avar " of iubjugatiou.. It believed, or affecc-d fc) believe, tht tiie movement of the South was not a popular move in jnt that the great Inxly of the people in the South ern States, with, perhaps,. the single' exception of South Caroliua, was in favor of the Federal and op posed to the Confederate Government. They saw, or affected to see, the elements of a-strong Union party r at thSouth.aud especially in North Carolina. They thougHjSsfche severance from the government of Mr.-, Lincolrivasrfhe work of an'oligarehy." They. ," thoughuthat the people wererdi vjdod among them-' ' "selves, and that it only required the Federal" standard to le set up withinWr borders to causa a majority to rally around it. They were mistaken ; but wh(, who watched the niovenients of parties, politicians or po litical newspapers, shall iay they were blindly mis taken? Did not leading papers and politicians with- in out borders speak as flippantly of a secession "o'.i . garchy," of "precipitators," and all that sort of thing, , as Bennett or Greeley the N. Y. Herald or Tribune could have done? But for this apparent division cou'( Lincoln ever have dreamfed of "putting down " the rebellion" with seventy-five oJt ten times seventy- .T6 t'uand men ? The early knowledge of the truth, by the early presentation of a united fronton the part of the South, miglt have causetl the North" to pause und consider before nteri4 upon a contest in which the highest measufe of success in :rms could afford no. 'compensation Tor the' losses sustained and the debts 1 incurreil. Had this united front been at once present- etl had the North at once been enabled -to see wlnt it now sees who shall say that it might not then have paused iiHts mad career ? We do not say that it would, but we do think that it might, and that the' chance was that it tpould: At any, rata that chance was the best, as, indeed, it- was the only one to avoid the outbreak of hostilities and the terribie contest V which is upon us as a consequence of such hostilities. Omniscience alone can -see tlie-ml fnnri the begin ning in aflyundertaktng.jind especially do?s this'np ply to war. Lincolu and hi advisers were far from I possessing omniscience. He, thought it was a light , - r matter. Nubody was hurt. The South was notin earnest the Union party fcould soon "put down" the "rebellion." He weat int it blindfohhl; He is n .w .iiurougmy. unaeceived, but it is too late fur him to reti ace. his steps too late for us to reap the advan tages wluch a prudent boldness might hare secured at .first '. Ason as wesaw that disunion was an inevitable, ye4 an accomplished faejt, we -also .saw that North Uirohna must; sooner or. iat take her pwiti.'m with the South.. We thought indwe still' think that the more promptly; the more boldly and unreservedly this .was doue, the better, id we repeat that we thought then and thin fc'-n.w that an nnmistakeably united front on the part of alt the Stat es who ulti matclT did or must cast their fate with the South would have tended greatly to have brought thing to an understanding, thereby preventing altogether the outbreak of hostilities which desolato both sections and whose probable limit no man, can daro to foTe- vOII ' Deeming prompt action the part of prudence, si nee action must come, and any man with his eyes ooen must hartf seen ikat we certainly did advocate seces sion by North Carolina m tho .-spring of last vear . r'tedtit C,mlf aUi by wltutiouarmeans Hell, wmle the mans we supported were in pro gress to witppcals to public opinion throu di the press amK through public meetings and eonven tions, Mr. Lincoln's proclamation came ut cal liner for seventy-five thousand men to rcoerce the theu Confederate States.

Yet we, because we saw. the storm-cloud gathering, and favor ed prompt measures, either to dissipate it, or to guard against its effects, were immediately stigmatized by the dilatory "watch and. wait" leaders, who assumed to themselves the name of "conservatives," as .being among the "destructives tho "precipitators," as though ' by foreseeingand urgent preparation .to meet an impending crisis we had brought on that crisis; whereas, on the contrary, the dilatorinees and . apparently willful blindness of parties in this and. other Southern.

' . r . . c personal cnaracier io buuscitc ujr t,u pioiuutiuu ui any particular man: We sought nooffice. We nev er had nor smight for State printing. Our business and our movements were perfectly independent, and outside of such' considerations. Mr. Johnston was early brought out. sVe knew him to be a g od and true man, fully competent to discharge the duties of the office ably and honorably, and we would have been satisfied with him. But he would nc4 suit othT ers who had three ends.iu view, one of which was psrsona! aggrandisement , "auother was the acquisi tion of an appearance of personal influence ; the third was purely vindictive iu its character. These parties moved heaven and earth to get oyit a candidate, Who, by the eclat of military position and personal elec tioneering popularity, might carry the State,' give an apparent triumph to their party, and appareiitluflu ence to themselves. For this reason Col. Vance, a gentleman against whom personally we have not now, and had not during the canvass, a word to say, though the lalcigti Standard formerly" had, was brought forward, this clique tacking ou to his mili tary prestige, while secretly other methods were em ployed, and we know that all sorts of attacks ajjaiDst the Confederategovenunent and the Conscript law were used covertly to prejudice the people against' Mr. Johnston, who", boofstiy and frankly endorsed both. ' A military position in war time personal popu-r larity at any tune strong electioneering on the part of snppurters and none on the part of opponents, or rather we should say the opponents of 'the nnxle in which he was got out and supported, gave Col. Vance a large majority over Mr. Johnston, who, save as a perfect-gentleman in private iife, and a' most clear headed man in the transaction of affairs, was not at all known to the people of the State, having never before mingled in the arena, of politics. And do, aud ol coursethe vainest, the most upljl'tfd man on' the sur face of the earth at this present writing i the editor of the-RiIeigh Standard, who evidently thinks or would convey the irnprssioti' that he has done some thingthat his influence elected Mr. Vance and others, whereas in truth, the result shows that the onlv ' re lly strong opposition that Col. Vance had to en counter was due to the fact that the Standard sup ported hjm. The result that we feared begins to show itsolf. The telegraph brings us word that "The Northern version of the North Carolina election is that the Se cessionist candidate for Governor is defeated, and th-t the Unionists elected nearly every member of 'the Le gislature." A second time have the manoeuvres and representations of the Standard and its clique 'placed the State in a false position before the world. A se cond time is the enemy excited to hope ami stipula ted to exertion by the idea that there is a Union ele ment inNorlh Carolina, which only requires fostering What advantage will be taken of this at the North, and how much it' will strengthen the hands of the Lin colu. administration in its war against the South, who can say! That it .vill strengthen Lincolu to some extent there can be no doubt. Justice. to himself, to his State, to the Confederacy, demands that Colonel Vance, as Gocernor Vance, should cut loose, altogeth er from this destructive clique, and by a bold mnd manly course undo, as far as now possibly the- evil which has already resulted from its machinations stiengthen the spirit of the' State and free her good name from the suspicion to which unscrupulous dem agogues have subjected 'her. . ,ft Let Gov. Vance disprove tho bowlings and rejoic ings of our enemies, of which the following from, the Washington, N.

Xe Era, (Lincohiite) Aug. 14, 1862. . . Complete Overthrow of the Democratic Se cession Party in North Carolina. "The Democratic Secession party iu this State have been beaten by nearly forty thousand majority. They last their Governor, and b th branches of the Legisla ture by over a two-thirds vote. Everything hasgonc: against this corrupt party which tojk. North Caro lina out of the Union without submitting the ordi - nanceof secession to the people. Having lo.t cb;ifi dence in the people by n .t submitting their act for ratification, the people in turn h ive lost coufi Ymco in them and relieved this party from duty ami all posi tions of trust." 1 What a remarkable coincidence there is between this and the rejoicings cf at least one paper in North Carolina, which once claimed to be Democratic and whose' alitor signed the ordinance of secession 1 The time is coming in which all these things will be more calmly reviewed than they can be 'at this time, and we, as one of the so much denounced "de structive" h V; no doubt of a full and perfect appro val of our course, as. being in truth eminently and tru ly Conservative, when others claiming to be conserva tive will be seem. and known as they are.

Nothing else of interest was done. 1 An Unusual Sight. At the Post-office, last night, an unusual sight was witnessed nothing less than an U. S. mail bag packed with Yankee letters, which was captured on the Rappahannock lines. The let ters are of late date. One from Genesee county, 111., dated tho 18th instant, says that county has raised nine compauics under the lat call, and that "when the government gets iu earnest the rebellion will be put down aud traitors hung." A letter from a soldier at Battle Creek, Tenu., August 9th ays : "We have all the army here that was at Corinth,rand 200 field pieces. More iufantry is expected in a few days." A letter dated Lincoln county. Mo., Aug. 18th, from a son to his father, says the draft by the U. S. Gov ernment was very injudicious, as "Davis will get six men to Lincoln's one." He adds that he would rather fee Indians than Federals in Miss mri, for they could not steal or murder more. Dr. D.n Todd, according to this letter, was taken out of bed by the Federal troops on the 15th and shot dead. It adds that "he was a southern man, but had taken the oath,, and was staying at home, attending to his business." The wri fer says ' it is thought in. this State lhat the mails will be in the hands of the Souh in less than a mouth." A touching letter from "Sister Hannah," at. Manches ter, N. H., begs "my dear brother" to come out of the army, and not wait for the fate which befell "Por Charlie," her other brother, who was killed in an en gagement. She hopes he wou't think she. is wri ting like a -poor, weak, foolish girl," and offers up a prayer for his silety. Another epistle,' with 110 !ate, Irom a mother to her son, tells him that his lather died L at home on furlou-'h.' She says, too, that "the cav alry ara ridingaround with Irandcuifs for deserters." A great many ol the letters are in German, and di-r-!Cted to members of the "Garibaldi Guard," 30ih N. Y-Volunteers, at WinchesJer, Va. AffAirs at Cumberland Gap. A letter from Morristown, East Tennessee, states that the Federals have been driven back to the Gap,' and are now en tirely surrounded ; the forces of General Smith, which crossed the mountain at Big Creek Gap, 'over a week since, have gained the rear of General Morgau's army. At Barboursville onr forefs captured 350 wagons loaded with - provisions. The writer says he has iu formatiou that our forces were in line of battle imme diately in front of the Gap, and that a courier was hourly expected to bring tidings of capitulation. Refugees. The Chattanooga (Tenn.) Rebel has information that Hon. "A. O. P. Nicholson, Judge Wm. L. Martin, and Jos.

From passengers who arrived 'in this city by the York river train yes terday from James City countv, we learn that two of our scouts visited, Williamsburg on Wednesday. The Yankees have removed their stores and evacuat ed that town. At York town there still remain sev eral hundred, who are. ho ever, supposed to be on the eye of departure- by land to Fortress Monroe. There are no gunboats in York river, and from this fact, Gloucester-Point also is inferred to be evacuated, though nothing definite has been heard from that lo cality. Richmond Exirniner, 30th ult.
