Rebel Conscript law.--By a general order, dated the second of October, issued from the army headquarters in Richmond, “the execution of the act approved April sixteenth, 1862, commonly called the conscription act, and of all the amendments thereto, is suspended by direction of the President in the States of Kentucky and Missouri.
Troops from those States will, until further orders, be received into the confederate service under the act passed by the confederate Congress prior to the act above referred to, and the execution of which is suspended.”
Van Nostrand. New York, New York. 1862.
