It might not be amiss to look into this business with a scrutinizing eye. Without designing to compliment the patriotism and bravery of many of our young men and citizens within the years subject to drafting, I may state that quite a number, in anticipation of being called upon to fight for their country, have left for Canada, Europe, and other parts unknown. They were willing to partake of its protection and enjoyments, but in the hour of trial are missing. We can easily spare all such, and eventually fill their places with true and loyal men. I learn that William B.

Later from the North. We have received Northern papers to the 8th inst. The steamship Golden Gate, of San Francisco, was burnt off Manzanilla, on the 21st ult., and 180 of her passengers lost their lives. Since the drafting order, large numbers of citizens of Baltimore are leaving for Europe. A letter from there, dated the 7th, in the Philadelphia Inquirer, says: The British Consul's office in this city continues to be pressed upon by a dense and excited crowd of foreigners, anxious to obtain certificates of their being English subjects. The passage ways leading to it are filled all day, or at least, during office hours. As the Consul himself, Mr. Bernal, is reputed to be quite a strong Secessionist, I presume it will afford him pleasure to accommodate his John Bull brethren to exemption papers.

Pleasanton, and four batteries, commanded respectively by Capts De Rossy, Benson, Bramall, and Tidball, the whole under the immediate command of Gen. Hocker, were ordered to make a reconnaissance towards the enemy's lines. At 4 o'clock they left the encampment and proceeded out the Charles City road; after following it a few miles they struck off into the by roads, and about to reached Nelson's farm, where they bivouacked for the night. Early in the morning they were again on their way, and still following a roundabout way; in an hour after this second start they found themselves in the rear of Malvern Hill, and the rebels there stationed, thus effectually getting between Richmond and its protectors. Judging from the preparations that had been made for our reception, it was ev

I learn that William B. Norman, a very wealthy purely patriotic and most deserving young gentleman, who owns a fine plantation in Baltimore county, a few miles from Baltimore, has applied to the Government for permission to raise a regiment of volunteers. This is a noble example. Mr. Norman has wealth, youth, and every comfort at his disposal, yet he is ready to sacrifice all for the good of his country. No young man stands higher in the estimation of his friends, and this adds another imperishable laurel to the many he has won. Let others of fortune emulate his example.
