jfnquifir. BEDFORD PA., FRIDAY, MARCH 81, 1865 OUR SUBSCRIBERS will notice that w< have made a material change in the sizi and appearance of our paper this week. Owing to this change and the necessary laboi attending it we have been compelled to issut only a half sheet. PEACE OVERTURES. The tier aid, criticising our recent articles favoring a Presidential Proclamation in the interest of Peace, says : "As we understand THB T*ICXR, it wants a proclamation in behalf of these leaders of the Rebellion, giving them some greater inducement? for submission." The Herald will please understand us bet ter We have not suggested any specific proposition to be made to Rebels of any grade or position. If we had any such sug gestion to make, we should, for obvious rea sons, address it privately to the the Presi dent But, while we would have specific overtures made from the highest quarter, our concern is more with their spirit than with their letter. We greatly desire that the Southern people should realize that the lxiyal Millions do not hate them, do not seek their extirmination, but are most anxious that they should turn from their erring ways and live. Such we know to be the feel ing of the great body of our friends and neighbors; such, we are confident, are the feelings of a large majority of the people of the loyal States. We do not believe that the torture unto death by exposure to in clemency and starvation of so many thou sands of our captured brethren was author ized or desired by the great body of the Southern Whites. We do not believe that a majority of those Whites ever gave an unconstrained assent to the mad scheme of Disunion. We do not believe they have ever preferred to be vassals and feudatories of some European monarchy rather than the citizen of this free republic, yet we are all assured that their chiefs have attempted to bargain them away to whomsoever would aid in consummating Disunion. We have ever regarded with good will, but without sanguine faith, the various efforts to open negotiations with those chiefs ; for we could not but feel that they nra-4 necessarily be the very last men in the Confederacy to con sent to a restoration of the Union; but thata great and steadily increasing majority of the Southern People would gladly accept such a pacification as our Government could hon orably accord, we have long and unwaver ingly trusted. Now, then, we ardently desire that the President should marke a direct, specific appeal and overture to the Southern people, urging them to return to loyalty and peace, and giving them substantial reasons fpr so doing. Those people are now kept in the toils of treason mainly by positive and con stantly reiterated assertions that they have nothing to gain by submission, nothing to lose by persistence in rebellion, and may as well fight to the last and give up and be ex terminated as well as stripped naked after their surrender. (See Jeff. Davis's late mani festo, the address of the Rebel congress, Howell Cobb's speech, &c., &c.) Now lest the President counteract these damaging misrepresentations by a simple, clear, straightforward overture, setting forth pre cisely who are to gain and what is to be gained or saved by pacification, and we are confident that a large portion of those wh< have hitherto aided, or seemed to counter - ance the Rebellion, will insist that this over ture be accepted and the tide of wholesale carnage and devastation be thus arrested. And when those who thus feel and act shall have declared for peace, there will not be enough left in rebellion to keep each other in countenance. If even one-eighth of the insurgents were now to throw down their weapons, the Rebellion must collapse forth witlu Thb issue of the contest is no longer doubtful. We must have this day at least 250,000 combatants between the Susque hanna and the Pedee, while all the Rebel forces within those limits canuot numbei 150,000. Our men are well fed, well provi ded and splendidly armed ; the Rebels art in want of everything, hope included. Tc fight longer is to squander blood and treas ure : there should be speedy peace, and oui Government should unmistakably evince the anxiety it feels for an early and final pa cification. The discomfitted Rebel leaden may hold their lives very cheap , but we, who are the victors, should realize that all the lives and property sacrifices hereafter are just so much loss to our country. W< have saved the Republic ; now let us try t< save as many of its people, as much of its property, as we possibly can. — N. Y. Tnh nnc. SPLENDID COMBINATIONS. General Grant's despatch, which state) that he has received SHERMAN'S report O operations from the time when he left Fay ettville until the 22d inst., although brief does not sustain the rebel despatches, which claim victories over SHERMAN at Averysvilli and Bentonville. How fortunate Genera SHERMAN'S march has been is shown by th< fact that he reports his entire loss since hi left Savannah at twenty-five hundred mer many of whom are but slightly wounded At the same time SHERMAN confesses to hart fighting, which brought him two thousand prisoners. Other despatches, not official, but which may no doubt be relied upon, say that th battle at Averysville was a defeat to the reb els, who retreated and left all their dead ii the hands of Major-Gener.il JEFF. C.DAVIS The retreat of this body upon Bentonville where it was reinforced by JOE JOHNSON led to the battle at that place, of which w haveheard much through General LEE. DA Vis was checked at first, fell back, was rein forced and drove the great JOHNSON forwan and at night remained master of the field which the Rebels abandoned, and fell bac; across the Neuse River to Smithfield. Th oppostion at this place was expected to checl the advance of SHERMAN and to prevent hi junction with SCHOFIELD, but having fade, it gave to our troops the oportunity to pei feet their combinations. SCHOFIELP, who ai rived at Goldsboro' on the 21st. pushed or and six miles from that town met the advanc of TE&RT'S column ffqm Wilmingtoi This jdyfSQ meeting waesSttflfdy tferwap intensified in interest by the appearance of the head of SHIR*A|J'B columns, which now came up, marching"'upon the road from FayetteviHe. Thus was SHBEiuAyjiiiiinforced hjrScHO FELD and by hen the length of time ocd&pied by the march from Savannah, the advance from Ncwbern and the operations at IV i lining ton, ami un derstand that they were all so arranged that the three armies should converge at Golds boro' or in the neighborhood, when we re flect that they are all there, and met to the day. and almost to the hour originally in tended, and when we take into mind the tedious marches, natural obstacles military impediments and obstructions which were to be vanquished, we may well ask ourselves, in view of the fulfillment, whether war is not to be ranked among the exact sciences. The astonishing precision of these immense movements, the great ability shown in the arrangement and in furnishing the means of execution ean only-be the work of one man and that man is the originator of the whole campaign, the director of all, the genius of our military superiority, TTLYSSES 8. GRANT. —Excfotnge. OIL. —We understand that 0. E. Shannon has purchased some valuabTeoil territory in the oil regions. The'maps and other papers are at the bank of Rnpp, Shannon k Co. Those who take an interest get an absolute title to the land to the extent they take. We believe it is a developing party, and as soon as ar rangements are completed, the party inteud to go to work. The territory being surround ed by producing wells, it looks like a good thing. Those who desire an interest would per haps do well to take it soon. We clip the following from the Norristown Herald : Capt. John Feight, Co F., 138 th P. V., has been appointed and mustered in as Chaplain of the Regiment. Chaplain Feight has been a most gallant and faithful officer, and is a moral and obliging gentleman. Lieut. M. S. Bortz succeeds him as Captain, and Ist Sergt. C. P. Calhoun has been promoted to Ist Lieutenant. Lieut. Calhoun's ''straps'' were well earned by long and faithful services. Tribute of Respect. At a meeting of the- returned members ol Company Keystone Zouaves, (70th P. V.,) upon the occasion of the death of one ol their number, LEVI J. AGNEW, Lieut. Levi Smith was called to the chair, and on motion of D. S. Elliott, the following resolutions were read, and unanimously adopted : Whereas, We have been informed of the death of Levi J. Agnew. late of our Company, this intelligence has created feelings of the deepest regret and most profound sorrow among us. his fellow members, we have met together to express our sentiments as individ ual triends, and thus mark our associate ac tion with that unanimity which comes from the heart and voice of each. To know that he is no longer living and that hereafter he will be no more among us forever, leaves us his late associates and fellow members sor rowing and sad. Respect for his memory, services and character, his noble qualities, and a solemn sense of the Providence which has cut short his days, in the promise of his man hood, induce us to Resolve, That the members of this Compa ny mourn the death of their bite comrade in arms, Levi J. Agnew, who with patriotic de votion was willing to do battle for his country in her hour of trial and danger, and who has thus linked his name with the thousands of heroes who have gone to the Christian's and Patriot's Heaven.. Resolved, That his loss is deplored because he is taken from among us when his life gave the most assured promise of useful and hon orable manhood. Resolved, That we tender our. sympathies to his family in their deep affliction and be reavement. Resolved , That a copy of these proceedings be published in the BEDFORD INQUIRER and BEDFORD GAZETTE.

NEW JERSEY SENATOR. —The Legislature ol New Jersey, last week, elected the Hon. John P. Stockton, Democrat, to the United States Senate in place of the Hon. John G. Ten Eyck, Union, whose term expired on the 4th inst. The election is peculiar from thi fact that the electing body, before voting, re scinded the rule requiring an absolute majori ty for a choice, Mr. Stockton had 40 votes, U 37 for Mr. Ten Eyck, and one each for foni other candidates ; so the actual vote is 40 foi Stockton to 41 for all others. AT the inauguration ball Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln did not dance, neither did the mem bers of the cabinet. THE National Intelligencer, whose conser vatism is well known, has the following com plimentary notice of our new minister to Spain, Hon. John P. Hale : "We are glad to announce that the posi tion of Minister to Spain, which at an earlj day of Mr. Lincoln's first term was given tc Carl Schurz, Esq., has been tendered to £ gentleman of character and ability. Mr. Hah as Pater Senatus, as a pioneer of the ideas o the party now in power, and as candidate o that party for the Presidency at a period whei its policy had no strong hold upon American statesmen or the American people, coulc scarcely fail at this time to receive other thai a highly-honored position. But it is in Mr. Hale's social position, rather than his politi cal course —in his high professional abilitiei and parliamentary experience, and in his tho rough knowledge of men and things —that we base the belief that this country will be care fully and reputably represented by him a Madrid." Mr. SUMNER stopped the promotion of colonel to beabrigadier general because of hi: criminal indulgence in intoxicating liquors.- Name not given, but Mr. Sumner did right.

JACOB LINE, our fellow citizen, was killed by the enemies of our couutry, Jnne 22d, 1864, aged 34 years. "He lived, not long, but well." From boyhood he was remarkable for filial obe dience, morality and general propriety of demean or. In very early manhood he was converted to God and received into the Methodist E. Church, and was at the time of his death an acceptable member ef tin same, showing in his life the beau ty there is is a Christian example. As a citizen he is to be lamented. He was a man of genial disposition, winning the kindest re gards of his acqnaiutan es, while at the .am® time he commanded their highest respect. As a husband, father, brother and son, his loss is irre parable. As a true patrb t, and possessing sound judgment as to the cause of this unholy rebellion, he resolved to lay down tie life—if need be—for his country's cause and h iman liberty. He fell at his post, and though no dying testi mony has been given, h s life has been the sure pledge of "the death of tl e righteous." His dust rests quietly 1 eneßth the shade of an evergreen tree, while his memory is held in grate ful remembrance by everj loyal heart. * [PUBLISHED BY HEQDEST.] CAMP OP THE 55T I REH'T. P. V., ) SIGNAL HILL, Va , Jan. 31st., 1865. J Mr. ANDREW MOWER: Sir—l take the present opportunity to drop you a few lines to let you know of the death of your son ALEXANDER, who lied on the 28th of this month. He has gone home, and has left kind pa rents and many comrade* to mourn his death. He ha? been a good and faithful soldier, and was be loved by all who knew him. He will long be re membered by those that he has left behind. He has at last followed many of his dear comrades, who went before bim. lie has been a good and faithful soldier, and has served his country faith fully for nearly four years; but he did not have the pleasure of seeing his country enjoy that peace and happiness for which he has long been fight ing; for he has gone and left it still in darkness. He has endured the hardships of many a hard fought battle, and his Heavenly Father has atlast called him home. He has gone where the roar of the canon will hever disturb bis peacefnl slumbers again. His battles are at last o'er; he has fought his last fight and ha* won his last victory, no sound can awake him to glory again; for he has gone to his home in Heaven. But he will long be remembered by those he has left behind. He will never be forgotten by his comrades in arms; for to them he was always true and faithful. He was always found at his post when called on, and was always proud to do his duty as a soldier. He has long fought for that bright, starry flag, and at last has the honor of sleeping under it. Dear Parents, you may be proud to know that your loved son sleeps under that bright banner— the pride of your happy homes. He died a happy man and his last words were that his dear parents should tiy and follow him, for he was going to his home in Heaven—where he will enjoy peace and happiness forever. Dear Parents, be proud of your son, and ever remember him, and try and follow his dying words. May he rest in peace till the last trumpet , shall sound. EDWARD MOWER.

Gentlemen. —Having stated it verbally to you, I have no hesitation, in writing the fact, that I ex perienced marked benefit from your Hooflaad'a German Bittere. Daring a long and tedious session of Congress, pressing and onerous duties nearly prostrated me. A kind friend suggested ike use of the preparation I have named. 1 took his ad vice, and the result was improvement of health, renewed energy, and that particular relief I so much needed and obtained. Others may be sim ilarly advantaged if they desire to be. Truly your friend, Thomas B. Florkxce. From John B. Wickersham. Esq., firm of Wick ersharu A Hutchison, the celebrated Manufac turers of Fancy-Iron Works, 259 Canal St. I am the recipient from you of one of the great est favors that can be conferred spon man, vis: that of health. For many yean have I suffered from one of the most annoying and debilitating complaints that the human family can he afflicted with, Chronic Diarrhea. During the long time I was suffering from this disease, I was attended by regular physicians, giv ing me but temporary relief. The cause seemed to remain until I was induced to try Hoofiand's Ger man Bitters. After the use of a few bottles of that valuable medicine, the complaint appeared to be completely eradicated. I often inwardly thank you for such a valuable specifio and, whenever I have an opportunity, cheerfully recommend H, with full confidence in its reliability. Truly youTS, John B. Wickkrsham. New York, Feb. 2, 1884. From Julius Lee, Esq., firm of Lee A Walker, the mostextensive Music Publishers in the United States, No. 722 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia. February' 8 th, 1884. Messrs. Jones A Evans—Gentleman:—My mother-in law has been so greatly benefitted by yonr Hoofiand's German Bitters that I concluded to try it myself. I find it tpbean invaluable tonic, and unhesitatingly recommend it to all who are suffering from dyspepsia. I have had that disease in its most obstinate form—flatulence—for many yaars. and your Bitters has given me ease when everything else had failed. Yours truly, Jtrtitrs Lkb. From the Hon. JACOB BROOM, Philadelphia, Oct. 7th, 1563. Gentlemen : In reply to your inquiry as to the effect produced by the use of Hoofiand's German Bittera, in my family, I have no besitatien in say ing that it haa been highly beneficial. In one in stance.' a case of dyspepsia of thirteen years'stand ing, and which had become very distressing, the use of one bottle gave decided relief, tbe seeond effecting a cure, and the third, it seems, has con firmed the cure, for there has been no symptoms of its return for the last six years. In my individ ual use of it 1 find it to be an unequalled tonic, and sincerely recommend its use to the sufferers. Truly yours, JACOB BROOM, 1707 Spruce St. Rev. W. D. Seigfried, Pastor of 12th Baptist Church Philadelphia, December 26th, 1563. Messrs. Jones A Evans—Gentlemen:—l have recently been laboring under the distressing effects of indigestion, accompanied by a prostration of the nervus system. Numerous remedies wero recommended by friends, and some of them tested, but without relief. Your Hoofiand's German Bit ters were recommended by persons who had tried them, and whose favorable mention of the Bit ters induced me also to try them. I must confess that I had an aversion to Patent Medicines, from the "thousand and one" quack "Bitters" whose only aim seems to be to palm off sweetened an' drugged liquor upon the community, in a sly way; and the tendency of which, I fear, is to make many a confirmed drunkard. Upon learn ing that yours was really a medicine preparation, I took it with happy effect. Its Motion was not upon only the stomach, but upon the nervous sys tem, was prompt and gratifying. I feel that I have derived great and permanent benefit from the use of a few bottles. Very respectfully yens, W. D. SEIGFRIED, No. 254 Shackamaxon St. > From the Rev. Thos. Winter. D. D., Pastor of Rorough Baptist Church Dr. Jackson :—Dear Sir,-—I fee', it dee to your excellent preparation, Hoofland German Bitters, to add my testimony to the deserved reputation it has obtained. I have for years, at times, been troubled with great disorder in my head and ner vous system. I was advised by a friend to try a bottle of your German Bittera, I did so, and have exprienced great and unexpected relief: my health has been every materially benefited. I confidently recommend the article where I meet with cases simitar to my own, and have been assured by many of their good effects. Respectfully yours, T. Winter, Roxborough, Pa. From Rev. J.b. Hrrman, of the German Reformed Church, Kutztown, Berks County, Pa. Dr. C. Jackson: —Respected Sir :—I hnve been troubled with Dyspepsia nearly twenty years, and have never used any medicine that did me as much good at Hoofiand's Bitters. I am very much improved iu health, after having taken five bottles. Yours with respect, "J. 8. Herman. BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS. See that the signature of "C. M.
