Doc. 9.-the National enrolment. Solicitor Whiting's opinion. war Department, Office Provost-Marshal General, June 9. the following opinion of Hon. William Whiting, solicitor of the War Department, has been ordered to be published by the Secretary of War: The National forces, liable to perform military duty, include all able-bodied male citizens of the United States, and persons of foreign birth who have declared their intention to become citizens according to law, being between twenty and forty-five years of age. Certain persons are excepted, divided into eight classes. No persons but such as are therein excepted shall be exempt. (Sec. 2d.) It is declared the duty of the enrolling officers to enroll all persons subject to military duty, (Sec. 9.) All persons thus enrolled shall be subject for two years after July first succeeding the enrolment, to be called into the military service, (Sec. 11.) The national forces (not now in the military service) enrolled under th
The day was neither very quiet <*>or very boisterous. Toward the close of the day there was more activity displayed. Heavy musketry was heard in the night, occasioned by a skirmish between the pickets. The mortars kept busy all night. Tuesday, June 9.--Heavy shelling and artillery firing being the order of the day, it can scarcely be said that one day differs much from another. The never-ceasing popping of musketry greets the ear from morning till night, and from night till morning. Inre at work; the artillery kept up a fire the entire night.

The mortar-boats were very quiet during the day, but kept up a heavy fire during the entire night. Appendix.--The r

The Yanks have been shelling our breastworks, but no damage done. It is very disagreeable sitting in these dirty ditches — but this the confederate soldier expects and bears cheerfully; but another long hot day has passed and who knows what may be our situation at this time to-morrow evening? June 9.--The Yanks attempted a charge last evening but was repulsed. Whistling Dick is at work to-day, it has played a full hand, too. Whistling Dick is tearing our camps all to pieces. Charlie Dixon and Berry Hagin was wounded by fragments of our cook shelter, which was shot down. Our sick has been removed to the ravine. It is difficult to get something to eat. The Yankee artillery is playing upon us all around. The Heshians burned our commissary with a shell today. June 10.--Another day a
