Many people did not want to be drafted because they did not wish to risk their lives to prevent the southern states from seceding from the union. It's perfectly understandable.Probably, because they didn't want to get killed.
If midgets (of which I am one) would need great techno weapons to take over the world because the average sized military serviceman could overcome midgets easily when it came to man for man ability. They wouldn't bother anyway.
In the north,a man could avoid conscription by hiring a substitute.This practice was unheard of for the most part in the south. In southern culture of the period,men had a very martial attitude.Most southern soldiers were small farmers,and had a very strong opinion of what a man's duties were to his nation and his family. To them,the idea of getting someone else to do their duty for them was hateful,and not a practice to engage in. This information can be found in "The South Was Right" by James and Walter Kennedy and also the US Library of Congress.
It can be referred to as the "Poor Man's War" because mostly the poor or working class men were drafted in. The college attending men who would normally be drafted in were exempt, as well as men who were sons of politicians and such. There were many ways to get around the draft but the people who could not get around it ended up being the poor and working class men of the country.
A man that owned 20 or more slaves was exempt from the Confederate Conscription Act of 1862 and therefore did not have to enter the army if he did not want to. This also applied to the overseer of plantations with more than 20 slaves if they held the position prior to April 16, 1862.See the following links.

The Enrollment Act of 1863, sometimes called the Conscription Act or the Draft Act. It contained a provision that a man who was drafted could get out of it by either hiring someonem else to serve in his place, or by paying a $300 fee (which is in the neighborhood of $10,000 in today's money).
There was no conscription that could force a man to serve overseas. and Australians voted no on this in 1916 and again in 1917. However military training for Australian men aged 18 to 60 had been compulsory since 1911.
People in Australia wanted conscription because many of them had relatives or friends in the front line. They new that if more people enlisted their friends would be safer, but the amount of people enlisting had dropped once the excitement of the start of the died. These people could only see conscription as the only answer to secure safety. The Prime Minster Hughes wanted conscription because he knew that there weren't enough people. He said "We must put forward all our strength. The more Australia sends to the front the less the danger will be to each man. Not only victory, but safety belongs to the big battalions...".
Conscription.
Conscription had never been necessary in the US until the Civil War. Each set of draft laws, whether in the South or the North angered many people. One large reason for this were so-called loop holes whereby a man could escape the drafts by paying the governments or finding another man to take one's place.
Under the Draft Act of 1863, it was legal to hire a "substitute" who had not been drafted. A man could also pay $300 (a large sum at the time) to avoid conscription.
"Conscripts" during the Vietnam War were constripted men for military duty. Conscription is another word for "Draft." During the Viet War, a "drafted man" was a "conscripted man."
Because they realized that they wouldn't have the man-power they needed to fight on multiple fronts with a volunteer only military. Compulsory Military Service wasn't discontinued by the US until 1973.
