THE FOURTH AT GETTYSBURG.
The day at Gettysburg was one of peculi
ar interest and triple signification. There,
on the battle field that was two years ago
the scene of a terrific battle and glorious
victory, was assembled a multitude of loyal
and patriotic citizens at once to lay the corn
er stone of a national monument in memory
of the gallant men that had there sacrificed
their lives on the altar of their country's
liberties, to celebrate the national birth-day,
and the glorious victory of which it was the
anniversary. Henceforth Independence day
stands forth as the greatest of all anniversa
ry days, as the day of the declaration, of
the preservation, and the vindication of the
rights ot man. And Gettysburg will
stand forth the greatest of all battle
fields. There on the 4th of July 1863
was fought the great battle that decided the
fate of the nation and of free institutions
for all future time. Then the foiled and
defeated rebel host suddenly retreated from
that bloody field, it had made its last des
perate effort to overthrow and destroy our
Government, and had witnessed its most
signal failure. II When Lee, discomfitted,
turned his face once more toward the sacred
soil he knew for a certainty that the success
ful invasion of the free States was an im
possibility. Henceforth all the efforts of
the rebel Government to drive him north
ward again were unavailing and all his sub
sequent movements were simply a putting
off at a fearful sacrifice of the evil day he
knew must come sooner or later to himself
and all his traitorous crew.
As we stood upon the stand that crowned
the summit r of Cemetery Hill, and viewed
the long procession entering the gateway of
the ground, our eye involuntarily swept over
the field, and stretching far away to the blue
top of South Mountain, lay before us one of
the most beautiful landscapes that ever be
came historic ground by the baptism of
blood. There beneath the peaceful summer
sun, on the fields once trodden by contend
ing hosts and saturated with the blood of
brave men, now waved gracefully in the
pleasant breeze, the ripening grain. While
contemplating the scene cur thoughts re
curred to school-boy-days when we wandered
over these same grounds, little thinking of
the awful scenes soon to be enacted there.
Then no dream of national trouble or dan
ger suggested itself to the mind, all was
peace, and we thought only of war and its
dread alarms, as we read of the scenes trans
piring beyond the Atlantic on the battle
fields of the Crimea. Since then the storm
has come to our own loved land, through
four long years of terror, while the world
in wonder stood aghast, when days of intense
agony and breathless suspense, seemed
lengthened almost to years, we have bravely
struggled onward until glorious victory has
crowned our triumphant arms. Once more
we stand upon Cemetery Hill and view the
plain of Gettysburg, the noonday sun is
still as bright, the fields as green, as grace
fully, as in days of yore, the yellow har
vests wave, but this is simple Gettysburg no
more, it has become historic ground, it has
been consecrated by the blood of martyrs,
and we are here assembled to commemo
rate their heroic deeds.
HOT AND COLD.
The Gazette of last week has an article
which contains the following extract, in re
ply to an article of ours of the week previ
ous :
"This foul attempt on the part of the In
quirer, to injure a brave and true-hearted
soldier, shows how much the Republican
tricksters in this place, care for the defen
ders of the flag. If they can't use the sol
dier for their own political schemes, they at
once set about destroying his influence and
ruining his good name. But such tactics
cannot prevail. In the present instance
they will totally fail. The late comrades in
arms of Lieut Eicholtz, will properly
resent the cowardly attack made upon him
by the Inquirer , when they cast their ballots
at the October election."
In the adjoining column we find the
following:
A FIRST CLASS ENDORSEMENT.—The
Bedford Inquirer , of last week, after stat
ing falsely that Lieut Eicholtz ran against
Judge Noble, and trying to browbeat him
into a declination of the nomination for
Associate Judge, is compelled reluctantly to
endorse his record as a Union man. To the
"loyalty" of this part of the political vine
yard, this endorsement will, of course, be
one of a first class nature. The Inquirer
says of Lieut Eicholtz:
"He has uniformly supported the Govern
ment in its grapple with treason, both with
his influence ana personal services."
Now we are quite sure that the INQUIRER
of the date alluded to only contained one
article in which allusion was made fo Lieut
Eicholtz. The editor of that journal must
surely have two seta of optics,—a false and
a true set, —which is the true and which
the false, Wc do not undertake to say, but
it is evident that he only makes use of the
true ones once in a thousand times.
MAD ANTHONY'S TRICK.—In our Revo
lutionary war, the British possessed a strong
hold which our forces could not gain nnless
with a knowledge of how matters were con
ducted inside. Anthony Wavnc. "Mad
* Anthony," as he was called, undertook this
delicate service. He spoke Dutch like a
native, and getting into a cart, he loaded it
with cabbage and started for the fort. So
complete was his disguise that no suspicion
was entertained. He brought just what the
garrison needed, he took time to peddle them
all out. and was suffered to depart. The
next day the fort was taken, when the offi
cer recognized Wayne at the head, and very
coolly asked: "Sir, how do you sell cabbage
to-day?"
AN EMPEROR IN DIFFICULTIES.
Under the magnificent management of the
Emperor Napoleon, the debt of France has
steadily increased for a number of years, its
expenditures have also increased, and its
revenues alone have decreased, or at best
remained stationary. M. Theirs recently
declared in the French legislature that bank
ruptcy was inevitable, and not far off, unless
affairs were managed more economically.
That is to say, the Emperor has been
carrying too much sail —but the difficulty is
how to take in canvas now without breaking
something. Whether he will follow the
example of his uncle, who never took in sail,
no matter how hard it blew —and who conse
quently came to such an end as any old sail
or could have foretold for him —or whether
he will act with more regard to prudence
and less to appearances, remains to be seen.
But the Emperor must sometimes, of late
have sighed to himself: "If only I had
kept out of Mexico?" The Mexican enter
prise has bad every element of a genuine
Napoleonic adventure —except success. It
is novel in conception, magnificent in prom
ise, very costly, and entirely unscrupulous;
it had, from the first, every quality to
recommend it to a large class in Europe who
care nothing for right or principle, or justice
but are ready to applaud any scheme which
affects their imagination and may profit
their purse. But with these ad mirers of Na
poleonic ideas one thing is indisjiensablc—
a scheme, to have solid merit, must be vic
torious. With them, the only way to be
successful is. to succeed.
Admirers of this class do not praise a man
who takes in sail, for that looks like weak
ness. They are gamblers, and when a gam
bler loses half his fortune he does not stop
play, he doubles his bets.
Unluckily, the Mexican expedition never
had the favor of any but political gamblers
and adventurers, and if the Emperor loses
their confidence he will stand alone. To
withdraw, therefore, has its difficulties—but
to remain has greater. The class of flat
terers who have constantly told the Emperor
that the ninety million dollars he has spent
in Mexico were a mere bagatelle, that the
•hundreds of Frenchmen who have died there
reflected glory on his reign, that the nine or
ten millions which he adds to the national
debt of France every year to support in part
his Mexican scheme, would not matter, will
stand seif-condemned if the Emperor with
draws. But if he remains it is now certain
he must send more tioops to Mexico, and if
he does that he will get into trouble with
the United States, as we trust our govern
ment has already assured him.
Now, whatever his parasites may tell him
he must know that a war with the United
States would be a very serious tiling for him.
If a petty struggle with the broken down
and exhausted Mexican people runs him in
debt, and is felt as a burden difficult to car
ry, what will he do if he has to meet also
the United States? If he is a prudent man
he will count the first loss the cheapest, and
take the advice offered him by a very good
natured crowd in Washington— to "get out
of Mexico." And as he is, in the main, a
prudent man, and has had considerable ex
perience during his eventful career in eating
humble pie. it appears probable that he will
"get out of Mexico" —just as soon as it is
plain that it is not safe for him to stay there.
We hope President Johnston will spare no
pains to remove any lingering doubts the
Emperor may have on that point. In this
case, to doubt is to court war; and the sure
way to preserve peace is to have a clear un
derstanding between the Emperor and our
selves.—N. Y. Post.
The Export of Gold.
The recent heavy export of gold, can sing
as it has caused, the rise in the premium,
and a corresponding rise in everything that
we buy abroad, is compelling the attention
of commercial and business men, and exci
ting no little alarm for the future. The
National Intelligencer , before gold reached
140, accounted for the rise as follows:
"From authentic commercial advices in
Boston, New York, and elsewhere, we de
rive information that the orders now being
sent abroad for goods are of almost unpre
cedented amount. The importation for the
summer and fall embrace not only dry goods,
but other merchandise in every variety and
in large amount The demand for all for
eign goods is urgent and increasing, and
money being plentiful. The consequence of
these arrangements for importations is that
gold is steadily rising, and was at one o'clock
yesterday within a fraction ol forty per cent
firemium. If the demand for gold to remit
or foreign goods continues, the premium
will soon he much higher.''
There is no doubt that this information is
accurate; and this, together with the tact
that the government Donds are freacntly
sold in New York on foreign account, being
returned here for that purpose by parties
who purchased when gold was above two
huudred and who now sell to realize, carries
gold up and keeps it up.
Yet in the face of this advance in gold,
and in the prices of so many articles which
the people must have and which we now im
port, many newspapers are clamoring for
free trade. If there was no gold sent
abroad, except .for the purchase of articles
which we do not and cannot produce or
manufacture in this country, gold would
bring but a small premium. It is really
worth no more to-day, except to pay for
eign debts, than greenbacks, and if we had
no occasion to send a dollar abroad it would
bear no premium. People here don't want
it to hoard, much preferring Government
bonds for that purpose. How foolish and
ruinous, then, is the policy, which, instead
of lessening, would increase this foreign de
mand for specie, by inviting to our markets,
without restriction, the foreign manufactu
rers aud producers, whose trade continually
discredits our currency and depreciates our
credit.— Milwaukee Sentinel.
EXPECTED RETURN OF MAXIMILIAN TO
EUROPE. —For nearly two months, gays the
London Morning Advertiser of June 17th.
we have, day after day, assured our readers,
stating that we did so on the very best au
thority, that the Emperor Maximilian felt not
only his empire, but himself personally, in a
position of so much peril that he had already
made all his arrangements for abdicating the
throne of Mexico and returning to Europe.
Most people were unwilling to believe in the
accuracy of our information, notwithstanding
our repeated and emphatic assurances that
it came from a quarter in which there could
be no misunderstanding as to the real state of
matters. We have now a confirmation of it
from the Times of yesterday, Our contem
porary says: "M. Elom, the special envoy
of the Emperor Maximilian, arrived yester
day in Paris from Vienna, where, it is said,
with the aid of King Leopold, he succeeded
in prevailing on the Emperor of Austria to
reinstate his brother Maximilian in all his
agnatic rights in the event of his returning
to that country." We repeat what we have
before said again and again, that so power
ful and aggressive are the Juarez party in
Mexico that Maximilian's return to Europe
may be confidently expected in a few months.
SUMMARY OF ITEMS.
TAKEN PROM THE PITTSBURGH CHRONICLE.
Ax Indianapolis letter of the 27th says :
Albert Pike, the Arkansas poet and ex-rebel
General arrived this momitig from down be
low, and stopped at the Bates House. He is
on his way to Washington to settle kiß Indian
affairs. He says he went into the war reluct
antly, having no doubt of the ultimate defeat
of the rebels, and is only surprised that the
catastrophe was deferred so long. Being a
Southern man. he could not avoid being drawn
into it. Mr. Pike indignantly denies having
countenanced the atrocities with which he is
charged at Pea Ridge, and is confident of his
ability to exculpate himself. He has lost
nothing of ''flesh or hair'' since the rebellion,
and has evidently managed to secure his reg
ular rations, both solid and fluid, even in these
times of greatest scarcity.
THERE is a great lack of women in the new
mining territories of the Far West. Nearly
the entire population of Nevada and Colora
do are of the male sex, and now that they
have got houses and cities, and wealth of sil
ver and gold, they are anxious beyond meas
ure for the society and help of women. Nei
ther wives nor servants can be had though
both have unequaled opportunities. The
Rocky Mountain Neurs, of the 14th insL, is
very plaintive on the subject, and is also prac
deal. It declares that women will find in
that country the "Utopia" of their dreams.
If husbandß are desired, they can be hud at
leisure; and if they wish to engage in house
hold employment, they can quickly acquire
fortune. In the populous Territory of Colo
rado, we are told, "there is scarce one woman
where six could and would be profitably em
ployed if they could be obtained. Wages
here for common household duties are from
S3O to SSO per month, including board. This
makes wages, at the present, rates of board
ing, from eighty to one hundred dollars per
month."
These immense wages, too, it must be re
membered, are payable in gold.
THE Toulon experiments with a new infer
nal machine were referred to in the French
Chambers on the 15th, and destructive pow

invention, but were partially discredited ly
the Minister of Marine. Electricity is said
to be the principal agency employed.
AT the Vermont Copperhead State Con
vention, held at Burlington, C. N. Davenport
was nominated for Governor, and D. C. Lins

reaffirming Democratic principles and endors

were adopted.
The breach between the feudal party and
the liberals of Prussia is widening. Herr
Von Bismark dismissed the Prussian Parlia
ment on the 17th with angry reproaches.
THE New York Times of the 28th observes:
"There would be some reason for the high
price of meat if gold were at 250, as at this
time last year, or if there had been a drought
parching up all the vegetation as there had
been then. The whole cause ol the present
complaint is, that a number of speculators
are trying to train the public into paying per
manent exorbitant prices for meat. They
think that if they can hold out against popular
indignation tor a while, people will get used
to extortion. But this is a mistake. Prices
must come down, and the sooner these specu
lators succumb the better. We do not in
tend to let the subject alone just yet. Mean
while every family that lets the buther se
verely alone, acts simply with common sense.
Diminished consumption was never yet known
to fail in reducing the price of any article
of large supply, nor will it fail in the case of
meat."

A LETTER from Columbia, South Carolina'
says : "The style of architecture of Southern
houses is peculiar, and somewhat resembles
the Spanish. All the houses have a half-sto
ry basement, a large and miscellaneous pro
vision of galleries, piazza, balcony, terrace,
conservatory, "stoop" and trellis. There is
an abundance of the most enchanting shade
trees, large, spreading, glossy evergreens, a
few garden flowers or creepers, and a strange
spring bench, set on rockers, which seems to
be a sort of trysting seat and rocking chair
combined. The furniture, though now faded
and worn, was once rich. The shrubbery
and shade trees surrounding most of the
houses are altogether lovely on account of
their luxuriance and symmetry. Some of
them have been cut into fantastic shapes.—
Indeed the woods and groves in the higher
lands of the state are admirable. The pine,
the oak, the myrtle, the live oak and the mag
nolia stand side by side.

M TRUER tp UNION PRISONERS.—Sena
tor Wade as chairman of the Committee on
the Conduct of the War, is now revising the
sheets of the report of that committee, com-'
prising recent testimony as to the treatment
of our prisoners received at the hands ofthe
rebels. The committee say the evidence
clearly shows that tens of thousands of our
brave soldiers have fallen victims to that
savage and infernal spirit which actuated
tho.ie who spared not the prisoners at their
mercy, who sought by midnight arson to
det-roy hundreds of defenceless women and
children, and who hesitated not to resort to
means to commit acts so horrible that the
nations of the earth stand aghast as they
are toll what has been done. The prison
surgeons, report of the Richmond prisons
for one quarter -hows that a fraction over
one-half of all the cases entered resulted in
death, and most of these deaths were more
the result of inhuman treatment and neglect
than disease. But a little more than half
the necessary number of beds were provided,
and the nurses often occupied them to the
exclusion of the sick. After our men died,
their bodies were treated as the carcasses of
so many dead animals. They were piled in
the dead house, and their eyes and cheeks
eaten our by rats before they were put in
coffins. The keepers generally manifested
almost total indifference to the lives and
condition of the prisoners. And as one of
the many illustrations of this, a witness
testified to the following: "I was standing
one day by the hospital. One of our negro
soldiers, captured at the explosion of the
mine ncor Petersburg, was standing near by.
engaged in skirmishing —a- we prisoners call
it —examining his clothes for vermin. A
rebel sentinel, at whom 1 happened to be
looking at the time, drew up his musket,
took deliberate aim and fired, killing the
negro on the spot. On being asked what
he did it for, he-answered, 'To see thed—d
black son of a1) drop."' The rebels said
they got thirty- days furlough for shooting
a Yankee. Ihe committee say it is a matter
of congratulation that, notwithstanding the
great provocations to pursue a different
course, our authorities have ever treated
their prisoners humanely and generously,
and have, in all respects, conducted this con
test according to the rules of the most civili
zed warefare. Washington Correspondence

MR. LINCOLN ON NEGRO SUFFRAGE.—
The following characteristic letter from the
late President Lincoln to Governor Hahn of
Louisiana, written fifteen months ago, has
just got into print:—
KXECITIVF. MANSION, )
WASHINGTON, March 13, 1864. j
Hon Michael Hahn:—
My Dear Sir: I congratulate you on hav
ing fixed your name in history as the first
free State Governor of Louisiana; now you
are about to have a commission which,
among other things, will probably define the
elective franchise.
1 barely suggest, for your private consid
eration, whether some of the colored people
niay not bo let in, as, for instance, the very
intelligent, and especially those who have
fought gallantly in our ranks. They would
probably help in some trying time to come
to keep the jewel of liberty in the family of
freedom. But this is only a suggestion, not
to the public, hut to you alone.
Yours, truly A. LINCOLN.
DON'T COMPLAIN. —Don't complain of
your birth, your training, your employment,
your hardships ; never fancy vou could be
something if you only had a different lot or
sphere assigned to you. God understands
his own plans, and knows what you want a
great deal better than you do. The very
things that you most deprecate as fatal lim
itations and obstructions, arc probably what
you most want. What you call hindrances
and discouragements are probably God's op
portunities, and it is nothing new that the
patient should dislike His medicines, or any
certain proof that they are poisons. No ! a
truce to all such impatience. Choke that
devilish envy which gnaws at your heart be
cause you arc not in the same lot with oth
ers ; bring down your soul, or rather bring it
up to receive (rod's will, and do His word,
in your lot, in your sphere, under your
cloud of obscurity, avainst your temptations;
and then you shall find that your condition
is never opposed to your own good, but re
ally consistent with it

XT- S. 7—GO LOAN.
THIRD SERIES,
$230,000,000.
By authority of the Secretary of the Treasury,
the undersigned, the General Subscription Agent
for the sale of United States Securities, offers to
the public the third series of Treasury Notes,
bearing seven and three-tenths per cent, interest
per annum, known as the
7s3U LOAN.
These notes are issued under date of July 15,
1865, and ate payable three years from that date
in currency; or are convertible at the option of the
bolder into
u. S. 5-20 SIX PER CENT.
GOLD BEARING BONDS.
I heae bonds are now worth a handsome premi
um and are exempt, as are all Government Bonds,
from State, County, and Municipal taxation,
which adds from one to three per cent, per annum
to their value, according to the rate levied upon
other property. The interest is payable semi-an
nually by coupons attached to each note, which
may be cut off and sold to any bank or banker.
The Interests at 7 per cent, amount* to
One cent per day on a 950 note.
Two cents " " " 9100 "
Ten •< 9500
20 " 91000
91 " " " 95000
Notes of all the denominations named will be
promptly furnished upon receipt of subscriptions.
The Notes of this Third Series are precisely sim
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 7 3-10tbs in 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
June, 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
alent 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 equalize price*
that purchases made with six per goll
would be fully equal to those made with seven
and three-tenths per cent, in currency. This is the
OHLV LO AN IA MARKET
now offered by the Government, and its superior
advantages make it the
Great Popular Loau of the People.
Less than $230,000,01i0 of the loan authorized
hy 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 case
on closing the subscriptions to other Loans.
In order that citizens of every town and section
of the country may be afforded facilities for takirg
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 wbi h
they receive orders.
