BUBSDrQ* OF OHAMBEBBBUBG. BY AN EYE-WITNESS AN» SUFFERER. Phuujjdhlfhia, August 6, 1864, _ About 3 o’clock of Friday afternoon, July 29tb h Gen. Couch informed us that the enemy were advancing in force from Meroersburg, that they could reach Chambersburg in three i hours* and yet they might not come at all. iWe were 'also informed that the rebels were too strong to be successfully resisted. Our cavalry force of twenty-four men dis puted,, with their , five hundred, every moh of the road from Meroersburg to within a mile and.a half of Chambersburg, where they were reinforced at 3 o’clock Saturday morning, (30th,) by one can non and seventy-two men. • Here, on the broW of a high, hill, the last stand was made by the handfal of bravo men. When the enemy had advanced ’within four hundred yards of the cannon,, (they being entirely unconscious of onr hav ing one) five shots were; i fired in rapid succession,,, producing -.marked .effect upon their .oompaot body, after) Which they made k' rapid retre&t through the streets, of the to#n ; . unpursued by the enemy, who were afraid to • enter till daylight. In the meantime. Averiil’s train, nadi.been.,.passing through the town for .hours,, together with a .large body, of farm horses and.oattle. It was justly thought by the officers in oom mafid, to. be pf great' importance that this! train should; not be captured,, arid on this acoptint the, last desperate Stand was made . outside of the town. The train was saved, and Major viMeneely and Captain '-Swearingen, of Gen. Couch’s staff, were among the very last to leave, Major,Schultze.having left,but a short time before. Hero permit me to express my personal, regard and ad miration for. Hen. Couch'and his staff, who certainly did all they could with the limited force at itheir command. About this time I heard the singing of. three shells thrown into or over • the town. ,At' daylight the enemy : advanc ed into the town, taking possession. As soon aB they hud. had their breakfast,- Gen. MpCansland demanded $500,000 in currency, and was peremptorily refused, On the instant the town was.,fired in some fifty places, without a : word of warning to any one. The very citizens whom McCansland had arrested, and from whom he bad made the demand, found their houses fired before they reached their homes. Pending the negotiation, stores and dwellings were broken open, the rob bery helping themselves to whatever pleased their fancy. I was in my house with my wife and twp children, and alsd a lady, .whose husband was taken* to Richmond last summer, her little boy, and sister. The earliest warning we received was from the stifling smoke that poured through the house, and from some one knocking at the door and crying: “If there is any one in this.house, for God's sake leave, for it is all on fire." I.gathered my family to gether, and left with nothing bat the clothes I had upon my person; two of the ladies not haying time even’ to get their bonnets. Having gotten them out of the' hohse,, I ascended the jrf&irs to see if any bad been left behind, in the haste.; After having examined all the rooms, I met two of the infuriated wretebes, rushing up the stairßas 1 hur ried dOWn 1 . At this time the house was; filled with blinding sinake. I locked* the front, door, hoping that. the. unwel come visitors would not* be able to find their way out. limmediately hurried after, my charge, and found them struggling their way through tiie streets thronged with home less women apd children, the pavements blocked up by the rebels, who had rid den their horses jn every imaginable way to hinder, the course of the fugi tives. The streets were filled with smoke and flame, and almost impassa ble.’ After we-had reached a tempoarry shelter, my wife returned to the scene of destruction, as a bird to its nest, and on her way was stopped before a burn ,ing house, in which a corpse was lying, and a little child at'the-rpoint of death.. The dead woman :was gotten out with j difficulty, and buried' in the garden) without shroud oif coffin) and the child! was barely rescued and placed in her ; arms, vrhen an offioer in front of, the house.oalled out to his men: “Boys, remember Hunter 1" She ran up to him, uncovered the child and said : “ Here is a dying baby we saved from ,the house yon have fired—ls your re -venge sweet.?” Shocked, the fellow, -burst into tears, and. answered, “Ho, madam." He followed her some dis tance) and leaning dowii; asked her ear nestly ?/ “Madam, can’t I save some thing 'for yon ?" Her answer was : “ r Na ‘ii: is tep late,' I have lost all!" Warned leavethehouso in* which we had taken refuge, a party of us left, but soon became separated)and I lost my little boy, aged about ten, and did not find him 1 till the next day, atShippens burg, vtfhither he had wilted, a distance of twelve miles. The rest of us kept upon the edge of the burning,town, and for three or four hours, watched the pro gress of the flames. ■ ■ \ ' One of the saddest sights I witnessed, ■was the burning of two old Acadomy, I watohedit bum, timber by timber. Fifteen years of associations as scholar and teacher were annihilated in the oourse of one short hour. My attention vras then drawn to the flag-staff, in the oentre of the public square, and rwe all, of our party as well as others, express ed an ardent hope that it might stand from which the American flag might wave even, over,the ruins of the town. *7 „«vm we returned to the uninjured i M.. 4, «»4 W»‘ *»• “8“ sift's barbarbas in the extreme, though there S mnny bonoraWe exceptions. Bij ? fired noon women s backs, la v anHrtles of olothiog that thp ■ had danced upon the furniture and articles of value and ornament, women’s per sons were searohed in the most indecent manner, oaths and foul language abound ed, aged women were locked in their rooms, while their houses were on fire, trunks were rifled after being dragged by the owners from the ruins, promises of protection were made to be instantly broken. Everything was done to add to the terror and confusion of the pahic stricken women and children: Soon the hunger of the little ones added new horror to the- scene. Families were separated, and. distracted fathers and mothers could be seen everywhere, seeking amid the confusion for those that were missing; and. yet no selfish ness: was apparent. Every one was wil ling-to aid and sympathize' with his neighbor. No one complained, no one lost hope; stern defiance of the accurs ed crew was the prominent fueling. -A rebel officer stopped me, saying:! “ Sir, cannot a little money be raised to' satis fy that -——brute, McGausland, a very little money would Bave this end of the town.” My answer was:: “If ten cents would do it, it : would hot be forthcomr ing.” One rebel came running towards me: wringing his;hands, saying.: “ Hor rible, horrible—l did hot think-itcouhT be so bad as this !” Another ono'told me that they had received orders before they entered the town, to burn every house in it; and yet'another informed me that their object was to effect an entrance during the night, and then burn it. In some cases; the women attempts -ed to extinguish'the fire, and were al ways prevented by threats and perso nal violence. Some Were thrust from, their houses, others were struck; and in some instances pistols were drawn upon them. One lady had a bucket of water which she had brought to 1 extin guish the fire, thrown in:her faqe. -In almost every case, the sick and the in firm were hindered from leaving their homes. There appeared to be a desire, on the part of these fiends, to have some, burned, if possible, by accident. One re bel who helped a lady to save some of her clothing, was seen led out of the town handcuffed. An officer who suf fered himself to be persuaded to save some.property, said, as he left the house that he refused to fire; “ Madam, you have saved your house, but have cost me my commission, and perhaps my life.” A negro saved his life by dres sing himself in woman’s clothes, and carrying on his head a feather bed, thereby hiding, his face and hands. Little children cried to “ go home”— the home that was destroyed, old men wept over the town in which they had lived for three quarters of a benturyf citizens looked on with dismay upon the destruction of their life-long lhbor and industry. Many fled to the ceme tery for refuge, and there, in the midst of death, was One little life added to the, wretched throng! The. words of our Saviour, with regard to the foretelling of the destruction of Jerusalem, was forced upon ns, •“ Let him Which is on the.house-top, not come down; to take, anything out of his bouse: neither let him Which is in the 1 field, return back to take his clothes. And woe untd fcbem that are with child, and to them that 1 give suck in thosedays!” The town soon became one. mass of smoke and flame, which ascended straight .up to heaven, as if to call down the ven geance of God upon the incendiaries— .not a breath of air. Was stirring, and. 1 there, wsas scarce an ! instance of one dwelling catching fife from another, un less adjoining. 1 Here and there, whirl winds, went up like gigShtic cofkscfews, carrying paper and clothing , high into' T the air, and miles .into the surrounding country, as if to bear witness of the foul outrage. I -saw more than : one j rebel, soldier weeping like a* ovoty. .the desolation ho had made. Hardened as -they were; to the .horrors of'war, this, v?as far too terrible for even them to, bear. ,!One cried out:to me in an agony of.remorse:. “ <3>h, I never enlisted for this !” ' • ‘ '- V •" . ' For miles arqund. the frightened -in habitants fled, tbey knew not whither ; some continuing their flight until they dropped to the ground with exhaustion. Pookeubooks and watches were taken«> by wholesale; bund leg,shawlsandvalisos were snatched out of Women's arid chil dren’s harids, to be thrown away. Cows, and dogs and cats were burned to death,■ and the death-cries of the poor dumb' brutes sounded like the groansof human beings. It is a picture that may l ; be misrepresented, but cannot‘‘be ened, One young girl was crying; but, meeting a squad of the marauders she controlled her tears,saying: u They shau’t see me cry?l®' Old men in the morning, were in tlieir .dotage by night, and many a youth becapqe a man, a revegeful man, ere the day had closed, . Strong minds wavered in the balance., and to the iosS’ ; of worldly (possessions was added the irreparable loss of reason.: Full grown men; forgetful of themselves; sobbed , over the destitution of those they'loved, and self-sacrificing woriieif strove to Comfort those of. weaker hearts; who had lost .no more'than themselves.' Wo know of instances where persons had saved money and valuables of others, with which they had in the excitement, been intrusted to the exclusion of their own. In the midst of this awful scene, the sympathy and encouragement we; had all along received from our loyal friends of a sister state, though the columns of the Tribune; Times, and Inde pendent, arose before us like a dense cloud, and, for the time, we hesitated Which was most oar enemy—New York or Virginia. Three_. hundred of, the enemy in our streets, two hundred as guard' outside, three thousand within, supporting distance; this,. too, with two thousand effective United States cavalry only nine miles off, for: hours. Oh, for.Whalf of the brave Franklin County boys, that were then far away : from their homos, fighting the 'battles of the Union! Wo blame no one. Our loyalty, as strong as ever, forbids us; hut therd is an "awful responsibility PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, AUGUST 25,1864. The usual mode of firing the houses was, to chop up the furniture with axes, and pile it upon opened beds, or in ward robes, and then apply a lighted match. Lighted paper, torches, turpentine-balls and straw were also used. One scoundrel accepted five dollars from a frightened female, to carry her trunk to a place of safety where he coolly broke 'it open, arid helped hiniself to the most valuable part of its contents. The officer who was sent to bum Col. Mc- Clure’s property had received orders to retain his wife to witness the burning. The officers carried lists in their hands, from which they Beemed to receive ex act information :as to the locality of every , man's property. A little dead child was inclosed in a chest, and buried by the terrified parents in their garden, for fear it would be burned in their house. Alady in delicate health, was watched by one of the robbers, and allowed to drag her trunk outside of the. town,;: j after which he searched it, and appropriated the valuables it contained. She asked, whether that was Southern chivalry, and received for. reply: I '. Take Ithat. back or. I’ll blow your brains She . did no/; retract, anil did nof ' haive’. her brains blown out. It was sad ! to] see ladies escaping from: their houses with nothing but a few, photographs or an album. In many ,instaiices, ( they yode into the parlors on horaeback, doing all the damage they could. ' ’ About two hundred and Sixty houses in the heart of the town, were burned tp the . ground, the part left .comparing with that destroyed as the rind does •with the orange. The loss is moder ately estimated at one and a half mil lion of dollars. 1 In the evening of that dreadful day, it was overpowering to witness the change in circumstances. One of our prominent citizens wont, with his family to the house of his hostler; another to the. residence of his negro servant. On the next day it was a still more sorrow ful sight to see refined’ladies flock to •the church to draw Govern men jt ra tions, and receive , articles of second hand clothing, sent up by the sponta- 1 . neons charity of persons residing along' the line of the C.-V. Bail Hoad. It was hard to eat the bitter bread of charity, but this mortification was borne with the same heroism with which they looked upon the sacking arid burning of : the dear old town. To see the grey hairedmen andwotneri,the middle-aged, the youthful, and childhood, all repre sented in the destitute but uncomplain ing throng; was one of the most solemn* sights the world ever saw. Wyoming: and Chambersburg will live in the tory of .Pennsylvania;, and the infamoqs names of Butlerand McPausland, will bo handed down to posterity, as the .types of savage barbarity..;, . About noon- those modern ' savages were compelled to with their hell ish work Unfinished, on account of the approach of Averill. At' 3 P. M., the Union , forces advanced through the town.. The citizens cheered the dusty and jaded warriors,, but no soldierly huzzas: came from .their parched and suf focated throats, as they rode through sinoke and :flame, and the intense heat of the smoulding ruins. One repeated exclamation of,' ‘‘'My. ; God j!wwas all that was heard.; and then, as they passed the flag-staff, each, one ..shouted, “Remetn ber ChambcrsbargAnd so -they ex claimed,.and so they shouted;,as; they dashed at a trot through the town, and, after‘the inhuman hell-hounds, as Me- , 'Can island, hiinseif, termed bis men. I, maydiveto be an ■'old man, but 1 never, never'shall I see Such Sights' a^ain,risT’ 'sawtbatP day in the" stricken 'town of Cbambcrsburg.' V : THE SEVEH-THIRTIIS-WHAT' i ARE We'truet that a;large .portion of onr readerk haye pondjered, thq. Appeal’of Mr. Fessenden, orir new Secretary, of the Treasury. The purport of.it is that thri PebplWof th'e'Uh'itfe'd l iSt&tee, acting as a body 1 through their agent the Go vernment, Wish individuals to lend them two hundred millions of dollars for three ffears,:iat seven and three-tenths per oent, animal interest payable every six months. For- this they offer Treasury Notes—-that is,-in reality* notes drawn and endorsed by every man in the country. The loan is wanted for a great national purpose, to effect what every man, unless he be a traitor at heart, it not id act, is solemnly pledged. The appeal ip addressed riot only to a few great capitalists, but also' to the many whose aggregate means const!-, tute the mass of the wealth of the land. The notes upon which'this lorin is asked is froth $5O upward. Every man -who has fifty dollars can take part* in this loan. 1 Apart from patriotism and the duty which all owe’to'their country, no yin-vestment is so desirable as this. It is,se.cux;e. of every man’s property is pledged for the puc tual payment of the interest, and of the debt when due. The security is in creasing-in' value,. For some years before the-war we . were earning 1000 millions a year more than we spent. During the three years of the war, owing to the high prices and constant demand for labor, we have earned more than ever before. No man who could or would work has been idle; and, ex cept fpr thc war, we have spent less than before" In three years of the war we of the United States have certainly panned' 8000 millions more than we have spent apart from the war.; The cost of the war may be set down at 2000 * * millions. Deducting this from onr net earnings, the People who are security for this loan are 1000 millions rioher to day than they were when the war broke out. “ - No other investment can be so easily convertible. The man who has a Trea sury note for $5O, or $lOO, or $lOOO, can turn it into money ‘more readily, and upon better terms, than if it were in vested noon bond and mortgage, or in railroiid'-fctooite;->.j: t.'i-k \ o<\' ' . THEY. The interest offered is higher -than can be realized from any other safe and convertible investment. It is, more over readily collectable To each note are affixed five “ coupons,” or interest tickets;' due- at the expiration of each successive half year. The holder of a note has simply to cut off one of these coupons, present it at the near est bank or. Government Agency, and receive his interest; the note itself need not be presented ,at all. Or a coupon thus payable will everywhere be equi valent, when due, to money. Thus, while this loan presents great advantages to large capitalists, it offers special: inducements to those who wish to make a ; safe and profitable invest ment of small savings. It is in every way the.best Savings’ Bank; for every institution of this kind must somehow invest its deposits profitably in order tci pay interest and expenses. They will invest largely in this loan, as the best investment- But .from the gross inter est which they receive thoy must de duct largely' for' the expenses of the Bank. - Their usual rate of interest allowed tQ depositors is five per'cent, upon sunjs qver SSOQ. The .person who invests directly with' Gov •erriinerit will receive almost 50 per cent. more. Thus the man who depos its slooo_|in a private'‘Savings’' Bank receives,so dollars a year interest; if he deposits she seme, sum .in this Na tional Savings’ Bank he. receivesi;3‘dol lars. "For those Who ‘wish to find'; a ! safe, Convenient and" profitable means of investing the surplus earnings which they have reserved for their old; age! dr for the benefit of their children, there is nothing which presents so many ad vantages as this National Loan. • It is: convertible into a six • per; cent., gold-bearing bond. At the expiration' of three years a holder of the notes of the t-30 loan has the option Of 'ac cepting payment in full or of funding his notes in a six per cent, gold interest bond, the principal payhble in not less, than five or more : than.' twenty years from its date as the Governinerit may elect. . For six nionths past these bonds have ranged at an Average pre mium of about eight pef eent. in tho New‘York market; and have sold at 109 to-day (Aug. 12,) thus making the real; rate of interest over ten per cent.; and besides, to make the inducement even greater, Congress by special act exempts its Treasury notes from state and municipial taxation.
