Persons desiring opperations should call early, as time is limited. All operations Warranted. SHS~ The circulation of our paper is so large that we experience gieat inconvenience, aa well as delay, in pinting it upon an ordinary hand press, such as are pretty genenially used in country newspaper of fices. It takes us a whole day to run off our edition when every thing works well. If the press does not, as is often the ense, run well, a day is not enough.— I We have been seriously retarded and inconvenienced ' because we have not been able to get off our paper always quite up to time. With our present facilities, we have no inducement to make further effort to in- j crease our circulation, because it is impossible for us to print more than we are printing- We think the circulation of the INQUIRER may be still very largely increased in this county, and to some extent in the adjoining counties. There are yet in this county not less than ten or twelve hundred Union men who do not take the INQUIRER. We are determined that it •hall not be our fault if they do not have the oppor tunity of taking it. And to afford them that oppor tunity we are considering whether we had not better at once procure a power press, capable of throwing off our present edition with ease inside of an hour Abd a half- Our subscription list has already been " so largely augmented and our job work so much in • creased, that we feel under a sort of ''compulsion" to take some action without needless waiting.so that we may carry on our growing business with dispatch and-with the utmost regularity. On the whole we guess that if power presses have not not gone up too high in prices, we shall have one in the full tide of successful operation within a few weeks. from the „Y. T. Tribune. The Fifty-fifth Pennsylvania Regiment. To the Editor of the N. F. Tribune : Sia: In your issue of May 21, 1864, you publish ed a communication, signed '-J. W.," from * cor- | respondent with the 10th Army Corps, dated ' Near City Point, Va., May 10, 1804," giving an account of the enemy's attack on our lines near Drury's Bluff. Va., on the morning of that day; which contained i the folio wing paragraphs : "Col. White, commanding the l*t Brigade in Gen. Ames's division of the 10th Corps, was pierced with fifteen bullets, while endeavoring to encourage the 65th Pennsylvania, which behaved badly." As your paper ha* been the instrument of spread ing this slander throughout the country, we feel that we have a right to ask that you should publish the contradiction. In the first place, Col. White was taken prisoner, unhurt, and was RO "pierced with lb bullets, as stated. Upon receiving the paper containing "J. W.'s" communication, Capt. John C. Shearer, then com manding the regiment, addressed the following com munications to Brigade Headquarters: HEADQUARTERS SOTH RKOIMKNT PLNNA. VOLS. \ May 24. 1864. / Lieut. H. W. Caruthere, A. A. A.

SIB : I have the horror to acknowledge the receipt of the request of Capt. John C. Shearer, command ing 55th Regiment Pennsylvania Volunteers, refer red to me from Division Headquarters, relative to the behavior of that regiment during the engagement on the 16th of May last, at Drury's Bluff. In reply, I will state the position of the 55th Pennsylvania Vol unteers and the 4th New-Hampshire Volunteers, be ing a portion of the Ist Brigade, and under command of Col. R. White. When the enemy opened lire oa the morning of the 16th, five companies of the 4th Mew-Hampshire Volunteers were at the front, or on | the advanced picket fire Of the brigade, protected by 1 * rifle-pit thrown up the night previous, the remain ing five companies being in their camp, a short dis tance in the rear. The reserve were immediately ordered to fall in, and inarched forward in line of battle, under the command of Col. Bell, to support the advanced line, which was. done without loss, the fog at this time being very heavy, which doubtless prevented the enemy from noticing the advance, as the fire from their batteries went over us, and fell near our camp. Immediately afterward the 65th Pennsylvania Volunteers inarched forward in our rear, the regiment being formed in two lines of bat tle, their right resting in the rear of the center of the advanced picket line. IHerc they halted, and the men were ordered to lie down. At this time the fog lifted, and the enemy noticing their position opened upon them with solid ahoL shrepnell and shell. Being on the right of the 4th N. H. V., the enemy's fire passed over piy com pany, and was received by the 56th, and also "on the the center and left of the 4th N. H, V., causing a large number of casualties in both regiments. A ■ection of Lanrdon's Battery which had been sta tioned in the edge of the woods on our left opened are on the enemy. The 65th were then ordered to ehanpe position, one battalion closing up on the 4th H- V., the other marching by flank to the left.— Soon afterward an order came for me to report to Col. Bell, when I received order to march my com pany from the riflle-pita by the left fiabk, which or der was complied with. In leaving 1 passed in the jjetr ofthe 56th, who held their position in good or der.

TIIESK Bonds are issued under the Act of Congress of March Bth 1384, which provides that all Bonds issued under this Act shall be BXEMPT FROM TAXATION by jor under any state or municipal authority. Subscriptions : to these Bonds are received in United States notes of Xa | tional Banks. Tkey are TO BE REDEEMED IN COIN, at the pleasure of the Government, at any period not lest than ten nor more than tarty years from their date, and un til their redemption Five Per Cent. Interest will be Paid is Coin, on Bonds of not over one hundred dol lars annually. The interest is payable on the first days March and September in each year. Subscribers will receive either Registered or Coupon Bonds, as they may prefer. Registered Bonds are re corded on the Books of the U. S. Treasurer, and can be transferred only on the owner's order. Conpon Bonds are payable to order, pnd are more convenient for com mercial uses. Subscribers to this loan will hava the option of huving their Bonds druw interest from March Ist, by paying the accrued interest in coin—(or in United States notes, or the notes of National Banks, adding fifty percent for pre mium, ) or receive them drawing interest from the date of subscription and deposit.. As these Bonds ark Exempt from Mnaicipal or State Taxatioa, their value is increased from one to three per cent per an. num, according to the rate of tax levies in various parts of the country. At the present rate of premium on gold they pay OVER EIGHT PER CENT. INTEREST In currency, and are of equal convenience as a permanent and temporary investment. It is believed that no securities offer so great induce ments to lenders as the various descriptions of U, S. Bonds. In all other forms of indebtedness, the faith and ability of private parties or stock companies or separate communities only is pledged for payment, while for the, debts of the United States the whole property of the coun try is holden to secure the payment of both principle and interest in coin. These Bonds may be subscribed for in sums from S6O up to any magnitude, on the same terms, and are thus made equally available to the smallest iender and the largest capitalist. They can be converted into money at any moment, and the holder will hare the benefit of the interest. It may beuseful to state in this connection that the to tal Funded debt of the United States on which interest is payable in gold, on the Id day of March, 1864, was $768,- 075,000. The interest on this 4*bt for ths coming fiscal year will b<545,057,126, while the customs revenue in gold for the current fiscal year ending June 30th, 1664, has been so far at the rate of over $100,000,000 per annum. It will be seen that even the present gold revenues of the Government are largely in excess of the wants of the Treasury for the payment of gold interest, while the re cent increase of the tariff will doubtless raise phe annual receipts from customs on the same amount of importa tions, to $150,000,060 per annum. Instructions to the National Basks acting as lose agents were not issued from the United States Treasury until March 36, but in the first three weeks of April the sub scription* averaged more than Ten Million* a Week.

[From the Era.] No one with the least equine knowledge can require to be told that Mr. Mafaew is the man for the rask which he has undertaken, and most satisfactorily accomplished.— His high reputation in the veterinary art, and his qualifi cations as a practiced writer on domestic animals, render him the very person for supplying an intelligent and in (aresting work on the diseases of the horse, vrhioh would be devoid of mere professional localities, while, at the same time, his skill as a draughtsman, and humor as a witty observer of life, enabled hint to ilinstrate with his pencil what he had written with his pen.
