GOD. GRANT, VICTORY! THE REBELLION CRUSHED! THE Ulo.\--\O\Y AMI FOREVER! RICHMOND IS FALLEN ! GEN. LEE SURRENDERS! THE TRAITOR ARMY ANIHILATED! GRANT, SHERMAN, & SHERIDAN NEGOTIATE A PEACE. (IRANDUNKIN JUBILEE. The patriotic citizens of Bedford County will join in a graud celebration, to be held in Bedford, on SATi it DAY AFTERNOON, APRIL 15, over the success which has crowned the Lnion arms, in the recent battles, resulting in the entire destruction of the Rebel army under Lee, the abandonment of the South ern Confederacy, and the restoration of the I nion. Several speakers will be present to address the meeting. RJETURXED. —ft is with pleasure that we re cord the return of our esteemed friend. J. H. Longeneeker, Adjutant of the 101 st P. V. Mr. Longeneeker enlisted at the beginning of the war as a private soldier and was succes sively promoted for his meritorious conduct till he obtained his present position. He, with his regiment, was captured at Plymouth, N. C.. ou the 20th of April, 1864, and was taken to Macon, Ga. Afterwards he was sent to Savtfttnah, Charleston, Columbia and' Cha rlotte. Having gone the rounds, and en dured rebel barbarity for ten long months, he now comes, we are happy to say, with good health, to his fiieods, and we feel assured that his talents and influence will be felt in this County. Long life to our brave young officer. AT HOME — Lieut. John B. Helm, of Co. G., 101 st P. V., is at present staying in town. He was a prisoner in Rebeldom for nearly a year, and after several unsuccessful efforts, finally succeeded in making his way to the I nion lines. Lieut. Helm is a brave soldier aud has earned a proud distinctiou for him self. Besides, he is sound to the core on the groat question, and we extend to him the right hand of fellowship. We believe it is the pur . pose of the Lieut, to return to his regiment WASUIXUTOX HOTEL. — By reference to our advertising columns it will be seen that Mr. Isaac F. Grove has leased the above well known Hotel. The house has been thorough ly refitted and refurnished, and is now, as it ever has been, one of the most attractive in this place. Mr. Grove is a clever and gentle manly landlord, and we speak from personal knowledge when we say that his table is not to be surpassed by any in Bedford. Our iends from the country, and persons gene rally visiting town, will find this a very agree able stopping place. EtSju We call the attention of our readers to the advertisement of Rev. S. J. Berlin, to be found in another column. The Professor it a graduate of Pennsylvania College, was an instructor for some time in that institution, and is. we understand, an experienced teach er. He comes to us highly recommended, and we have no doubt will give satisfaction. We greatly need a good school in Bedford, and we hope our citizens will liberally pat ronize him. RESPECTFULLY DECUXED. — The piece of poetry entitled "Victory," by "Sue." Hav ing no "melange" column, we can not give place to nursery rhymes. Our fair corres pondent should not be in haste to see her po' etical effusions go before the literary world. Commissioner of Internal Reve nue has decided that "ail instruments issued or used by officers of a State, county, city or town, in their official capacity, are exempt trom stamp duty. Orders of officials upon their treasurers are not therefore required to be stamped." YV .R! NEWS. —By reference to onr columns our readers will find an unusual amount of war intelligence. We would ask a careful perusal of the graphic account of the five days fighting before Richmond, which will be iound on the first page.

SEWARD, Secretary of State. HEADQUARTERS, PROVOST MARSHAL, > SIXTEENTH DIST. PEVX'A., > Chambersburg, April 4, 1865. J The following opinion of the Attorney Gen eral of the United States is published for the information of the people of this District. GEO. EYBTER, Capt. and Pro. Mar. 16th Dist. Pa. OPINION". ATTORN F.V GENERAL'S OFFICE, March 24. Slß:—la your letter of the '2nd inst., you ask whether the 14th section of the Act ap proved 3d March, 1865. entitled "An Act to amend the several Acts heretofore passed to provide for tlie enrolling and calling out the national forces, and for other purposes," is applicable to the call for troops made by the President 19th December, 1864. The sec tion is as follows: "That hereafter all persons mustered into tin' military or naval service, whether as vol unteers, substitutes, representatives, or other wise, shall be credited to the State, and to the ward, township, precinct, or other enrollment sub-district where sneh persons belong by ac tual residence, (if s%ch persons have an ac tual residence within the United States,) and where such persons were or shall be enrolled i if liable to enrollment); and it is hereby made the duty of the Provost Marshal General to make such rules and give such instructions to the several Provost Marshals, Boards of En rolment, and Mustering Officers, as shall be necessary for the faithful enforcement of the provisions of this section, to the end that fair and just credit shall be given to every section of the country: Proviped, That in any call for troops, hereafter, no coanty, town, township, ward, precinct, or election district, shall have credit except for men actually furnished on said call, or the preceding call, by said county, town, township, ward, precinct, or election district, and mustered into the military or or naval service on the quota thereof." The 27th section makes the Act take effect from and after its passage. The 14th section furnishes the rule by which men. when mustered into the military or naval service, are to be credited to the va rious localities from which they may come. The 15th section furnishes the rule by which credits are to be given when compu ting for the quotas of the various draft ais tricts. But the 15th section has a proviso which expressly prohibits the application of the rule therein given to the pending draft. I rom the fact that there is no such proviso to the 14th section, it would seem that it was intended credits should be given when mus tered iu uuder the pending call. But the 14th sectiou has a proviso, the pe culiar language of which would, at first blush, seem to favor the idea that Congress intended that the rule, in that section prescribed should be future to the pending call, and not future to the passage of the Act. That proviso de clares that credits shall not be given, except for wen actually furuialwd on said call or the preceding call. The manifest purpose ot the proviso is to limit the time within which a credit may be demanded. This section must be regarded as taking ef lect from the passage of the Act, unless such a construction is inconsistent with, or foisid den by. other parts of the Act. As is sutea in my Opinion to you of the 13th March, it appears from the face of this Act that, at the time it was passed, there was a pending draft under a call for troops in De cember, 1864, and it is carefully provided that nothing in the Act shall operate to postpone the pending draft, or interfere with the quo tas assigned therefor. Now, the rule for giv ing credits, at the time of mustering in, will not postpone the present draft or interfere with the quotas assigued therefor. It seems to me that there is nothing in the Act that prevents the application of the 14th section-to the present draft, unless it may be the proviso thereto. It was intended by that proviso simply to limit the time within which credits might be claimed, and not to postpone the application of the rule of credits, when mustering in, to future calls. 1 am oUthe opinion that the 14t,h section of said Act is applicable to the call for troops made by the President on the 19th December 1864. I have the honor to be, very respectfully, your obedient servant, JAMES SPEED, Attorney General. Hox, E. M. STANTON, Sec'y of War. apll4:lt. SPECIAL NOTICES. Happiness or Misery!

Gentlemen.—Having stated it verbally to you, I have no hesitation, in writing the fact, that I ex perienced marked benefit from your Hooffand's German Bitters. During a long and tedious session of Congress, pressing and onerous duties nearly prostrated me. A kind friend suggested the use of the preparation I have named. I 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. FLORHHCE. From John B. Wickersham, Esq., firm of Wick ersham A Hutchison, the celebrated Manufac turers of Fancy-Iron Works, 258 Canal St. I am the recipient from you of one of the great est favors that can be conferred upon man, vis: that of health. For many years haTe I suffered from one of the most annoying and debilitating complaints that the human family can be 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 Hooffand'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 specific and, whenever I have an opportunity, cheerfully recommend it, with full confidence in its reliability. Truly yours, JOH.N- B. WICKERSHAM. New York, Feb. 2, 1864. From Julius Lee, Esq., firm of Lee k Walker, the mostextensive Music Publishers in the United States, No. 522 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, February Bth, 1864. Messrs. Jones A Evans—Gentleman: —My mother-in-law has been so greatly benefitted by your Hoofland's German Bitters that I concluded to try it myself. I find it to be an 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 years, and your Bitters has given me ease when everything else had failed. Yours truly, JDLICS LKE. From the Hon. JACOB BROOM, Philadelphia, Oct. 7th, 1863. Gentlemen : In reply to your inquiry as to the effect produced by the use of Hoofland's German Bitters, in my family, I have no hesitatien in say iug that it has been highly beneficial. In one in stance, a case of dyspepsiaof thirteen years'stand ing, and which had become very distressing, the use of one bottle gave decided relief, the second 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 I 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, 1863. Messrs. Jones A Evans—Gentlemen:—l have recently been laboring under the distressing effects of indigestion, accompanied by a prostration of the nerrus system. Numerous remedies were recommended by friends, and some of them tested, but without relief. Your Hoofland'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 and 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 action was not upon only the stomach, bat 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 ycus, W. D. SEIGFRIED, No. 254 Sbackamaxon St. From the Rev. Thos. Winter, D. D., Pastor of Rorough Baptist Church Dr. Jackson:—Dear Sir:—l feel it due to your excellent preparation, Hocfland 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 Bitters. I did so, and hare exprienoed great and unexpected relief; my health has been every materially benefited. I confidently recommend the article where I meet with cases similar to my own, and have been assured by many of their good effects. Respectfully yours, T. WISTKR, Roxborough, Pa. From Rev. J..-. Hrrtnan, of the German Reformed Church, Kutstown, Berks County, Ps. Dr. C. Jackson; — Respected Sir :—I have been troubled with Dyspepsia nearly twenty years, and have never used any medicine that did me as much good as Hoofland's Bitters. I am rery much improved in health, after having taken five bottles. Yours with respect, J. S, IUHHAS. BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS. See that the signature of '♦(!. M.
