Volunteers to be Received nntil the First September.
The Albany Evening Journal has the following in relation to the draft The war department, in answer to
an enquiry from the Governor, telegraphs that the department receives volanteers for sil regiments until the
draft is made. Tbe draft cannot be made before the 1st
of September, as tbe preliminary work of the oew enrolments, tbe decision Upon applications for exemption,
Ac., will occupy at least twenty days. We are therefore
authorized, unofficially, to state that volanteers by compliance will be received for old regiments till tbe 1st of
September, The order to'this effect will probably be issued to-morrow. The, communication from the War
Department embodying this permission says, it is designed to receive volunteers to fill up the old regiments, and
any excess, after they are filled, will be credited to tbe
State as so much on the draft, and if enough volunteers
to fill up the old regiriteiits, that might, perhaps, dispense with the draft

Ordered, Eighth, That in filling all requisitions for

and, when practicable, among the subdivisions of counties, so that allowance shall oe made to such counties
and subdivisions of counties for all voluuteere heretofore furnished by them and mustered into the service of
the United States, nnd whose stipulated term of servi
