We should be surrounded by people whose every interest would be advanced by our injury. It was to prevent this that Mr. Davis set on foot the move he did for the conquest of New Mexico, and entrusted it to Gen. Sibley. We do not presume that either Davis or Sibley looked to see our armies welcomed by the people. If they could produce a favorable impression, it was tDavis or Sibley looked to see our armies welcomed by the people. If they could produce a favorable impression, it was to be desired; but whether they could or not, the conquest must be made or our liberties would be but half won with our independence acknowledged.

It is intimated that President Davis has expressed the opinion that all the clerks in the various Departments of Government, over 18 and under 36 years of age, are liable, with the residue of their follow-citizens, to military duty, by the provisions of the Conscription act recently passed by Congress. If the President has so determined, no doubt a knowledge of the fact that a number of the young gentlemen were more fitted to shine in a military than civil capacity, had a good deal to do in enabling him to reach the conclusion arrived at, "Medicos," under date of April 28th, in a note treating of the evil of officers drawing pay for laboriously doing nothing, asks leave "to call the attention of the authorities to the fact that at Chimborazo Hospital there are a Barracks Master and Assistant, each drawing his respective salary for the laborious occupation of doing nothing.
