gttlfdxtl ittijuiwi KEUKOKU. PA., FBI DAY, JINK 39, 1865. .0 UIIIUII OLLLDHM 1 1UIN OF THE FOURTH OF JULY Grand preparations are being made in Bed ford for the celebration of our Nation's Birth day, by the friends of THE UNION AND THE GOVERNMENT. Come one, come all, moved by a common spirit—the sacsed fire ot patriotism—and let us have a celebration worthy of the occasion. Let the farmer, dismissing from his care the labors of the day, leave the plough in the fur row and his scythe upon the swath, and come forth with banners streaming in the air, to celebrate the sublime of event "a nation born to God in one day"—the day of American Inde pendence. Remember that never in the his tory of our country was there more occasion for rejoicing than there is now : our govern ment has just passed triumphantly through the perils and darkness of civil war, and is now redeemed, disenthralled, regenerated and purified. Let in then, giving thanks tr> tb© God of battles who has thus preserved our na tion, come and celebrate the 4th of July not only as it was, but as it is. A free dinner will be given to all. The soldiers are especially and cordially invited. Come soldiers and join your friends, who, du ring the struggle through which you have just passed, triumphant aud victorious always sym pathized, encouraged and aided you in the hardships and triais of battle, and who re joiced with you in the time of victory, and wept with you in the season of despair. Col. John H. Filler will deliver the oration. The Marshals of the day are Capt. Alex. Compher, Chief Marshal: Assistants, Capt. IV. Mullin, Lieut. John J. Barclay, Lieut. Levi Smith and Lieut. John Horn. The procession will format 9 o'clock. A. M. in front of the Washington Hotel, will march down Pitt Street to Richard Street, up Rich ard to Penn, up Penn to East Street, down East to Pitt Street, and thence to Mr. Defi baugh's grove. All delegations coming to town will please report to the Chief Marshal or one of his aids. V\ e have been iufoiiucd that all plaoon oi business will be closed on that day. W. W. SHUCK, Chairman Committee Arrangements. THE COPI'EBHEADS AND THE CELEBRATION*. —The advocates of the contemptible trick at tempted to be perpetrated upon the Union men of this Borough, in concocting a Copper head celebration, have cast about them in a thousand different directions, to find an excuse for their disreputable attempt at imposition. We expected this, but we had a right to expect that they would confine themselves rigidly within the righteous limits of truth, but it appears when men resort tp trickery that they cannot stop half way, they must put the affair through, though it be at the expense of every moral virtue. The last Gazette con tains an illustration of this policy. The first proposition in justification is that '"in accordance with an almost universal practice, the Burgess and Council of this Borough have recommended the appropriate celebration of tbe coming anniversary of American Inde pendence." This might be well enough if it were so. unfortunately, it lacks truthfulness. It is the first instance, in the history of this town, within the recollection of the oldest in habitant, in which this has been done. But why the introduction of this innovation on the part of the Burgess and Council ? Why in vest the Chief Bnrgess with plenary powers? Why was the Burgess not authorized to call a meeting of the citizens and let them arrange all the preliminary committees? Ahi here is the rub I A meeting had been called by the PEOPLE to make just such arrangements, every body was invited to attend, the Court House bell was rung three times, but while the PEO PLE were assembling the Burgess and Council hastily assembled to head off the movement, lest some man who had identified himself, prominently, with the late trials of the coun try might be connected with the movement. There is only one other reason can be given for this shameless proceeding, and that is, that they desired to harmonize, by prepon derance, with loyal citizens for the purpose of neutralizing their former infamous record. What other reason could be given by these men for a union celebration? Had they of fered to unite with ns for the fonr long years of bloody war? Did they stand by us and comfort us in our trials? Did they sympa thise with ns in defeat or rejoice with with ns in victory? On the contrary they stigmatised all our efforts to assert the supremacy of the laws, as acts of usurpation; they denounced Abraham Lincoln, one of the truest and best of men, as a tyrant; they pronounced the war "a failure" and its advocates worse than murderers; they organized resistance to the laws, and an army was distributed throughout the northern States to keep them in subjec tion; they constantly championed the cause of the rebellion and HOW plead for its chiefs. The second proposition is, '"that there should be two orations delivered, one by a Democrat and the other by a Republican, politics to be excluded from both." This, like the first justification is nothing more nor less than a perversion of the record. The second resolution passed by the council reads thus: "The Chief Burgess be and he is here by authorized to invite some proper person to read the declaration of Independence and procure an orator for the occasion." There are no two orators, "an orator for the occa sion" is the language. The Chief Burgess could not transcend his powers or instruc tions. When men make records it ia well to hold them to them. By the way, we under stand the " proper person to read the Declara tion of Independence" to be one who can ex plain the sentence "all men are born equal to mean only Caucasians. But politics were to be excluded from both speeches. It is the first time in our history that we have heard that a celebration of the 4th of July was ex clusively a religious celebration, anu that politics were excluded from it. Here the secret comeß out, however. They were afraid some allusion to the manner in which the Government suppressed the-, rebellion might not be very flattering to their patriotism, therefore, some particular person would have to be selected who could dodge, by book or crook, or otherwise, any of these, to them, delicate questions. We have no hesitation in saying that the individual who will deliver a 4th of July oration, without alluding to the triumphs of our flag in the late rebellion, is a coward and deserves to be spurned as a trai tor, while if be does express himself in such befitting manner as the occasion demands, he will find his Copperhead auditors playing him the same pranks that they have been playing our patriotic clergymen throughout the country for the last four years. Of course we admit of the liberality of the thing, but most emphatically deny that "ma ny Republicans were willing to respond to this recommendation of the Burgess and Council," after the trick was discovered and they were made acquainted with the facts above ennumerated, as next Tuesday will fully prove. If an invitation addressed to the soldiery aud loyal people of Bedford county is a parti enau& wYu persist in writing themselves down in the dris loyal or prescribed class, it is not the fan It of loyal men, certainly. If they can not affiliate with men who are loyal, then, why in Heaven's name, do they blame loyal men for drawing the line of distinction? Whenever the term loyal is used they consid er themselves left out; tliey say so, and their actions conform to their words, and if they will persist in keeping up the distinction, let them do so. - But the community is to understand that Copperheadism, in the future, is in favor of the "restoration of harmony and fraternal kindness among our people, and not in favor of continuing bitterness aud 6trife." (Ah! ah! indeed!) Yes, so it appears. The bay onet which h;is awed them into silence, and which protected the lives and property of Union men, has hardly been returned to the . scabbard, when lo! here comes these fellows with the humility of martyrs pictured upon their countenance, pleading their good be havior in the future, that, therefore, their past villainy may be forgotten. We are not of the number that forget treason and treach ery in a day. By their record shall we con tinue to judge them, and when it fails, Cop perheadism will have paid the debt of nature, but its offensive teachings will lie cited to the latest generations.

John Lutz, Esq.. from the Committee on Resolutions read the following which were unanimously adopted: ResoliSed, That our present form of govern ment, which was instituted under the articles of Confederation as "a perpetual Union,'' and developed in the existing Constitution in to "a more perfect Union," has been, nnder Providence, the origin, the continuing caase, and as we believe it will be, in a long future, the sure guarantee of our political and social progress, our material prosperity and wealth, our domestic safety and high standing among the nations of the earth. JtesiAcedf That tbe faithful observance on the part of all the States, of all their constitu tional obligations to each other and to the federal government is essential to the peace of the country. Resolved, That as citizens of Pennsylvania, we point with pride to her record ot loyalty to tbe Union, unblemished as it is by a single act of treasonable hesitation, or more trea sonable opposition to the government. The first to the rescue when the national capital was assailed, her hardy and brave volunteers have never since failed at the call of their country ; and, now that the Federal authority in its final struggle with the rebellion, has been gloriously vindicated, the arms of the Union crowned with victory, the Constitution maintained and the country redeemed and saved, we claim the distinction for our State of having met the demands of the government with a patriotic submission and loyal promp titude nowhere surpassed, and of having thus rendered a service to the cause of Constitu tional law and order difficult to over esti mate. Resolved, That we have undiminished con fidence in the ability and integrity of Govern or Curtin, that the thanks of the people are eminently due to him for his untiring care for the great interests of the State, whilst his pa triotic and pains-taking devotion to the brave sons of the Commonwealth, on the field and in thelo6pfc4J. has endeared him to the sol dier aiid tie soldier's friends. His prompt and faithful support of the national govern ment from the beginning to the end of the re hellion, proves that he knew his duty and knowing dared to perform it. Resolved, That we mourn; the untimely death of our late beloved President, Abraham Lincoln. At the moment when the shouts of victory were rising troni the fields of battle, and when the flag of freedom was again being raised over the forts and towns from which it had been torn down four years ago, he tell beueath the murderous arm of the assassin. He had accomplished his mission—he had saved his country ami had gained a place in i the temple of glory, where he will always be j honored m one of the greatest benefactors ot i humanity. Resolved, That m Andrew Johnson our present Chief Executive we have the utmost confidence, believing him fully equal to the great work to which by a mysterious Froyi | | If *** 11W J- Utttf his fidelity to the government in the past, aud his unexampled patriotism in the hour ot his country's trial and danger, we are willing to trust him in the future. Resolved, That the thauks of the nation are eminently due to the brave volunteers who at heavy sacrifice, tendered their services and left their homes to defend the honor of their country and the principles of free government and now that the struggle for freedom and liberty to all men has finally ended, and tht din of battle died away, we gladly and most heartily welcome them to their peaceful homes. Resolved, That the course of our Represen tatives, I>. B. Armstrong and M. A. Ross, meets our cordial approval, and that the con ferees from this county be instructed to cast their ballots for their re-nomination. Resolved , That the ticket placed in nomi nation to-day, being composed of good and true men, is worthy of the support of the honest voters of this county, and that we pledge to their election our undivided efforts. On motion the Convention adjourned. G. W. HOUSEHOLDER, A. J. NTCTUK, President. J. K. BOWI.ES, Secretaries. QUEER! —Ain't it queer that we never hear now that beautiful song Vallandigham, Val landighara V Won't our friends the Burgess and Council of the Borough of Bedford order it to be sung on the coming 4th. DESTROYED BY FIRE. —The barn of David Evans, in Juniata township, this county was entirely destroyed by fire on the 2nd of June. Fortunately there were only about three tons of hay in the barn at the time. The loss is estimated at SIOOO. There was no insur ance. Our friends are making strenuous efforts to induce some of our returned volunteers to unite with them in celebrating the coming 4th. These efforts remind us of the strenu ous efforts that were made by the same per sons to present the amendment to the consti tution to allow the soldiers to vote. lluw th© Cops love the soldiersl Av IMPORTANT Ixqcißy.— Our friends who celebrate the coming 4th on "Democratic Hill" have raised, we are informed, S4OO 00 to pay the expenses of the celebration. — Wonder how much the man gave who sub scribed SOO 00 to pay a bounty to our county volunteers and afterwards, having prayed Over the matter, refused to pay and erased his name from the subscription paper. PLEASANT. —How pleasant and cheering it is to hear the notes of those patriotic songs, "The Star Spangled Banner," "The Red, White and Blue," Ac., &c., sung by persons in our town, who a few months ago could sing nothing else but "The Bonnie Blue Flag," "My Maryland &c., —can't these persons give us "John Brown's Soul," and "Tne Year of Jubilo is coining." OH WHERE, TELL ME WHEBE? —Somepersons in our town, called by naughty people Cop perheads, used to speak of the Rebel army as u oiir army." Will these persons be s6 kind as to'tell us where "our army" is now ? Where ia that "stern statesman" Jeff. Davis, and that "greatest of military chieftains." R. E. Lee? Where will they celebrate ♦'**> 4th ? A SPEECH. —A gentleman of our town made a speech last fall to a Democratic club because as he said his friend Meyers told him that "it was suspected that his loyalty was getting the better of his democracy." Is that the reasou why the aforesaid gentleman is going to make the fourth of July speech on Democratic Hill ? Did the Burgess and Council select him as the orator of the day for that reason? POLITICAL. — Our friends, we are told are preparing a large number of flags, not the 'Bonnie Blue Flag" but the Star Spangled Ban ner, to be nscd at their celebration on the coming Wo wonlfj Jilro tn Star Spangled Banner was too political for a church fair, how it comes to be "just the thing" tor a4th of July celebration? We hope the Burgess and Council who wish to have a celebration without any politics in it will answer the question. THE Rev. W. W. Eells will deliver a ser mon in behalf of the Pennsylvania Bible So ciety, of which he is a Secretary, in the Pres byterian chuich of this place, on next Sabbath evening. The other churches in the town will be closed, according to an established custom, and all are invited to attend the above service. Mr. Eells will also preach in the same church in the morning. ARMY CORRESPONDENCE. NEAR PLYMOUTH LANDING, \ TOMBIGBEE KIVKU, MISS., June 5, 1865. .)" Editors Inquirer : Several days ago we moved camp to within three miles of Plymouth Landing, on the Tombigbee river. There is nothing here to indicate the existence of a town further than several houses and a chicken coop or two, though the latter do not contain any of the feathered tribe at present. They mysterious ly disappear upon our arrival at a place. There are but seven companies of the reg iment at this poiut. Companies K, I, L, and and M. arc at Columbus doing Provost Du ty. Company A, is at. Mobile, Ala. They were unable to procure transportation at Lake port in time to join the regiment at Illakely, when it left for Georgia, and were left behind. They will probably rejoin us either at Jackson or Vicksburg. The weather has beea intensely hot for sev eral days past, the thermometer averaging about 100 degrees, so you see there is no joking about the matter. Our camp is pleasantly situated in a nice pine grove. Several line springs near at hand supply the command with an abundance of pure water. In the way of "grub" we do not fare so well. For some time past we have had nothing more tTian coffee —with "nary" sugar in it —and "hard tack." We do not consider this very substantial living. Forage for the animals is obtained some ten or twelve miles out in the country, in the way of corn with the "husk" on. Hay is not produced here, and but very few pf the people know what it is. Receipts are given in all cases. We expect soon to lie at home. Orders have been received for the regiment to leave as soon as possible for Jackson, Miss., where all the men whose term of service expires by the Ist of October will be mastered out, if possible, and if not, to proceed immediately to Vicksburg. All nnnervijeable horses have been turned in, and the met so dismounted, will go by rail to Jacksot, From here to Jackson is one hundredan< forty-eight miles, and we expect to march it in five days— thirty miles per day. 1 send by this mail copies of the Columbus Weekly Republic and the taily Clarion, pub lished at Meridian, Miss.

S. 5-20 SIX PER CERT. gold bearing bonds. These bonds are now worth a bwidsotne premi um and are exempt, as are all Government Bonds, from Bute, Cstttty, and Municipal taxation, which adds from one to three per cent, per annum to their value, according to the rate levied upoe other property. The interest is payable semi-au nually by coupons attached to each not*. which may be cut off and sold to any bank or banker. The Intemt nt 7 per eeut. amounts to One cent per day on a SSO note. j wo cents •• Ten * HiOO 44 20 „ „ 91000 •1 " " HSOGO Notes of all the denominations named will be promptly furnished upon receipt of subscriptions. The Notes of this Third Series are precisely rim ilar in form and privileges to the Seven-Thirties already sold, except that the Government reserves to itself the option of paying interest in gold coin at 6 per cent,, instead of"3-10thsin currency. Subscribers will deduct the interest in currency up to July 15th, at the time when they subscribe. The delivery of the notes of this third series of the Seven-thirties will commence on the Ist of Jane, and will be made promptly and continuous ly after that date. The slight change made in the conditions of this | THIRD SERIES affects only the matter of inter est. The payment in gold, if made, will be equiv ' went to the currency interest of the higher rate. The return to specie payments, in the event of which only will the option to pay interest in Gold be availed of, would so reduce and equalise prices that purchases made with six per cent, in gold would be fully equal to those made with seven and threcrtentlis per cent, in currency. This is the OtflsY LOAJf L\ MARKET now offered by the Government, and its superior advantages make it the Great Popular Loan of tbe People. Less than $230,000,000 of the loan authorised by the last Congress are now in the market. This amount, at the rate at which it is being absorbed, will all be subscribed for within sixty days, when the notes will undoubtedly com mand a premium, as has uniformly been the ease on closing the subscriptions to other Loans. In order that citizens of every town and section of the country may be afforded facilities for taking the loan, the National Banks, State Banks, and Private Bankers throughout the country have generally agreed to receive subscriptions at par. Subscribers will select their own agents, in whom they have confidence, and who only are to be res ponsible for the delivery of the notes for whieh they receive orders.
