    TIIE PRESIDENT GONE TO THE ARMY.
Departure ©t"President Lincoln on a Visit to j
General 6raul--Gcn. Grant's Trne Plan— :
Olßcial Statement ot the National Debt.
WASHINGTON, Jane 21
THE PRESIDENT'S DEPARTURE FOR GEN. GRANTS '
HEADQUARTERS.
The United States dispatch boat, Captain
Mitchell, left the Navy Yard to-day, with Presi
dent Lincoln and the Assistant Secretary of the
Narj- for City Point.
It is understood that Mr. Lincoln and Assis
tant Secretary Fox have gone to the front to con
sult upon the tuture programme of the cam
paign.
For the first time since crossing the Ranidan
the real plan of Genera I Grant for relucing Rich
mond is growingmaaifest. It was never his in
tention to enter-Richmond from the North, un
less the unforscen chances and contingencies of
battle should make it an easy conquest. Nature
and art have exhausted themselves in making it
impregnable from that direction, and General
Grant was well advised of this at the outset. But
the army was on the Rappahannock when he as
sumed the general command, confronted by Gen.
Lee. To have withdrawn from there, and trans
ported his army by water from Washington to
thi3 place, would have given Lee time and oppor
tunity, which he rarely wasted, to have made
counter demonstrations on Washington and the
Upper Potomac. It was considered best to drive
the rebel army before us to Richmond, if it could
Eot be destroyed sooner; for its destruction in
stead of the capture of one or many rebel capitals j
is the grand objective purpose. To do this effec
tually, by compelling it to retreat from Richmond
on a line of their own selection, the destruction of
the railroad through Gordonsville to the westward
becomes an important consideration. For this
purpose the army lay in the vicinity of Bethesda
church and Coal Habor a full week louger than it
would otherwise have done; but the railroad was
finaly not only destroyed for miles, but completely
annihilated, so far as the term is applicable to
matter. Our mission on that flank was then
accomplished. We are now here.
While the capture ot'Petersburg is an accom
plished fact the Danville Railroad is the only one
that connects the rebel capital with the Southern
Confederacy. The width of track on this road is
said to differ from all other Southern railroads,
and will prevent the withdrawal of rolling stoek.
This road can be easily threatened, or even de
stroyed, from Petersburg so that the rebel Gov
ernment will feel that Richmond is held by a very
slight tenure. The loss of Petersburg is the vir
tual surrender of Richmond.
A glance at the map will convince the most un
believing of this. Our communications will be
matchless; theirs hopeless. Let the timid, who
scent disaster in every breeze and borrow trouble
from all our movements, be assured that the glori
ous campaign of Vicksburg will find a parallel here.
There is something very grand and imposing in'the
slow and steady advance of this army on Rich
mond. It reminds one of the mountains closing in
on the brothers in the fairy tale.
To-day's session of the House was assigned for
the consideration of the business of the Military
Committee, aud was entirely occupied by it It
went on quite smoothly until the bill repealing the
commutation clause of the Enrollment act came
up. It was evident from the first that a large ma
jority was opposed to repealing it, and the addi
tioual section, prohibiting the furnishing of sub
statutes unless near relatives of the drafted man,
did not aid it in the least. Mr. Schenck argued in
favor of the bill, and argued its passage, as vitally
necessary to carrying on the war ; but it was of no
use. A raajority of two to one strik ing ont the first
section, repealing the commutation, settled the
matter, for the present at least. There was very
little excitement manifested, but the House was
very full and the vote large. If the war is to go
on the repeal of the commutation clause in regard
ed as a necessity, but it is evident that neither Con
gress nor the people that are prepared for it yet.
The question of the adjournment of Congress is
constantly agitated. The Democrats are ready at
any moment The administration menare anxious
to secure the passage of all the important measures,
and all are working industriously to get. them
through this week. It is expected that they will
all be through by Thursday of next week.
In answer to a resolution of the House the Sec
retary of the Treasury furnishes a statement of the
public debt of the United States up to June 14,
1864, the totals of which are as follows:
Debt bearing interest iu coin $81*7,941,601
Debt bearing interest in lawful money 379,700.802
Debt on which interest has ceased 370,170
Debt bearing no interest 501,383,104
Total $1,719,395,163
The anual interest in coin is $50,823,672 45 in
lawful raonev. $20,876,057 70. Total interest.
$716,199,730 15.
The ten-forty bonds amount to $70,239,250 ;
the three year thirty per cent, notes to $118,577,-
950; United States notes outstanding to $432,041, -
330; fractional currency outstanding to $21,031, -

TESTIMONIALS,
From some of our Eminent Clergymen.
Harrisbfro, Feb. Bth, 1864.
C. A. Banrvart— Dear Sir : I have used Brown's
Bronchial Troches, Wistar's Lozenges and other prepara
tions for hoarseness and Throat Troubles, and in compar
ison with them can cheerfully commend your own as
a most admirable specific for public speakers and singers,
in cases *f Hoarseness, coughs and colds. I have found
them serving in time of need most offoctaally.
Yours troly,

Harr!sbcrg, tan., 1864.
To C. A. Baxwvart— Dear Sir: In the habit of speak
ing very frequently, and in plaees where the vooal organs
are very much taxed, I have found the need of some gen
tle'expeetoranL and that want has been supplied in your
excellent Trocms. I consider them very far superior te
any Lozenge; that I have ever used, in removing speedi
ly that huskiness of the voice arising from its too frequent
use, and impairing the effectiveness of the delivery of
public addresses. Yours, Ac.,
JNO. WALKER JACKSON,
Pastor of the Locust Street Methodist Church.
To C. A. Barkvart— Dear Sir : —Having used your
Troches, I am free t say they are the best I have ever
triad, and take great pleasure in recommending them to
all persons afflicted with soar throat or huskiness of voice
arising from public speaking or singing.
Yours, Ac.,
G. G. RAKESTRA W,

HOSTETTER'S
CELEBRATED
STOMItI BITHRS.
A pure and povrerfil Tonic, corrective and alternative at
wonderful efficacy in disease of the
STOMA CKH LIVER AND BOWELS.
Cures Dyspepsia, Liver complaint. HesAseh*, General da
bilily, Nervousness. Depression of Spirits, Constipation
Colic. Intermittent Fevers, Cramps and Spasms, and all
Complaints of either Sex, arising from Bodiiy Weakness
whether inherent in the system or produced by special
causes.
Nothing that is not wholesome, genial and restorative
in its nature enters into the composition of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters This popular preparation contains a
mineral of any kind, no deadly botanical element; no
fiery excitant : but it is a combination of the extracts of
rare balsamic herbs and plants with the purest and mild
est of all diffusive stimulants
It is well to be forearmed against disease, and so far as
human system cn be protcctc'd by human means against
maladies engendered by an unwholesome atmosphere, im
pure water and other external causes, Hostetter's Bitters
may be relied on as a safeguard.
In districts infested with Fever and Ague, it hit been
found infallible as a preventive and irreaistable as a rem
edy, and thousands who resort to it under apprehension
of an attack, escape the scourges and thousands who neg
leet to avail themselves of its protective qualities in ad
vance, are cured by a very brief course of this marvelous
medicine Fever and Ague patients, after being plied
with quinine for months in vain, until fairly saturated
with that dangerous alkaloid, and not unfrequcntly re
stored to health within a few days by the use of Hostet
ter's Bitters.
The weak stomach is rapidly invigorated and the appe
tite restored by this agreeable Tonic, and hence it works
wonders in cases of Dispepsia and in less confirmed forma
indigestion. Acting as a gentle and painless aperients,
as well as upon the liver, it also invariably relieves th
Constipation superinduced by irregular action of tha di.
gestive and secretive organs.
Persons of feeble habit, liable to Xerrou* Attache, Lou
neve af Spirit*, and Fit* of Languor, find prompt and per
manent relief from the Bitters. The testimony on this
point is most conclusive, and from both sexes.
The agony of Billions Colic is immediately assuaged by
a single dose of the stimulant, and by occasionally resort
ing to it, the return of the complaint may be prevented.
As a general Tonic, Hostetter's Bitters produce effect*
which must be experienced or witnessed before they caa
be fully appreciated In cases of Constitutional Weak
ness, Premature Decay and Debility and Docreplitude
arising from Old Age. it exercises on electric influence.
In the convalescent stages of all diseases it operates as a
iovigorant- When the powers of nature are relaxed, it
operates to re-en force and re-establish them.
Last, hot not least, it is The Only Safe Stimulant, being
mnnufactured from sound and innoxious materials, and en
tirely free from the acid elements present more or lesa in
in all the ordinary tonics and stomachics of the day.
No family medicine has been so universally, and it may
be truly added, dexrvedly popular with the intelligent
portion of the community, as Hostetter's Bitters.

There symptoms, if allowed to go on, which this medi
cine invariably removes : soon follows impotcncy, fatuity
epileptic fits, in one of which the patient may expire.—
Who will say they are not frequently followed by those
direful diseases, insanity and consumption. Many are
aware of the cause of their suffering but none will confess
the records of the insane assylums. And melancholy
deaths by Consumption bear ample witness to the truth of
the assertion. The constitution once affected with organ
ic Weakness requires the aid of Medicine to Strengthen
and Invigorate the system, which Hembold's extiact bu
chn invariably does. A trial will convince the most skep
tical.
