To Me Editor Of The Tribune;


The arrival of the holidays denotes also the
renewal OF the annual visits OF The military, armed
with an order commanding US TO appear at Court
Martial 10 say why we shall not pay 6nestor refus
ing 10 make ourselves ridiculous, and the laughing
stock of the community. Now, when the people
feel the burdens of this odous system, is the time
for some united action on the subject. Allow me to
say few words in relation 10 the operation OF the
law in this City. Its burdens fall almost exclusive
ly on that class who are least able TO bear them
those who have families to support by their own da
ly labor That large class who make a boarding
house their home, generally consisting OF young
men, are never enrolled. In fact the system is so
universally regarded as a nuisance, that no board
ng-house keeper would retain boarder II their
names were given up; while in the case oil married
men their names and residences are easily asceriah
ed If they do not comply with the mandate OF the
law their household goods are levied upon and
sold even if in the wide world they are not possess
cd of $40 in value. and have no means of procuring
bread for their families. And TO what end ! That
few military loafers dubbed Captains Colonies, &c.
may have a grand spree upon the proceeds No
where else in the State is the system so vigorously
enforced as here upon those who are so unfortunate
as 10 be enrolled in the militia. In fact, here, the
main object Of the oaiers alluded TO appears TO be TO
fch money from the pockets OF the poor. They are
far from wishing the attendance OF those armed ana
equipped" sc. upon whom notices are served
They prefer 10 collect the fines and they make reg
uar business of it. Now is ii not Time that such pro
ceedines should have end The Legislature VIII
soon be ia session. and let the people OF this Cty
make an immediate and united effort 10 abolish this
military incubus which s ridiculous and useless
in itself and so unequal in lis exactions
