The Dreaded sth of January. Presi
dent Lincoln's most important edicts
culminate in January, as was the case
in the validity of the Emancipation
act, and what is more 'approximately
to prove true in the fulfillment of the
requirements of the draft. We will
then perceive the condition of those
unheeding ones who despised all the
overtures proffered 'by the Govern
ment in the shape of bounties, pen.
sions, &c., to all those who would vol
untarily respond to their country's
call.. Many who will then be compel
led to take up their gun and march,
will look back in sorrowful remem
brance to the days when they could
have acted the better part, and felt
more contented in fighting for the
Union. Although . when drafted they
0 wen the rankoor-tnose-wncr vegan ta •
rily offered their - services to the suste.
Mance of the Government and the
Maintenance of her laws, yet wo can
not see how they can fool rejoiced to
fight side by side with them, and be
gladdened in the realization of victo
ries achieved. We.allude to that class
who hate the Government, and do all
in their power to vilify its acts; those
who have done nothing to encourage
- - ldiers, but who struggle for their
!etion, as wail as the overthrow
power of the Government.
e conscript - has .one consoling
Aglit to shed a ray of light upon
gloom of his desponding neirt,
.nd that is, the soidicrs are more wil
ling to forgive him :Of his abuse of
isaem, than he is unwilling to leave off
.loneocting his tiehemos of destruction—
open and secret—and'join their num
bera to fight against his "beloved bre
..thren,"- and for his detested Govern
ment. The soldiers on the field have
shown their pity for, and their desire
to accommodate, the drafted man, in
the case before, and they will not De
' I(hx;t, this encouraging 'regulation in
the trial to come.
Merry ' Christmas and Happy ,New
Year.-43efore another issue the joyous
scenes that aro usual on Christmas
will have transpired. Many individu
als will be thinking of their prospects
for,the yva t r i 11304, making determina
tions and . fortncrig to . adopt
a now and better course of life; others
will be indulging with pleasure on the
receipt of presents from friends at
home, and front those unknown ; while
all the younger folks, will be thinking,
perhaps, of the change made by the
recurrence of Leah Year, - when, as
custom has die lady's alterna
tive to."pop the question." Wo trust
all' who makegeod resolutions wilfbe
enabled to, abide by them; hope-all
the young, whose visions of, future
liappinoSs arise frost inittrinionial com
binations, may have,them realized, and
conclude by 'wishing one arid all, from
the soldiers on the field to their friends
at'home, a merry Christmas and hap
py New Year. :

fine ,Pocket-dinives, llair Brushes, &c.,
&e.-11.ia stock is the , most.extensive
ever brought to Ilunangdon. Old
and young cannot fail to bo pleased.
AFB" In every bordugb and township
of the county there shohld bo aii or•
ganizatinti - 6fladie.s and others to as
certain the condition a the families
of soldiers in the army`. If they need
anything to ietider diem comfortable
it should be fUrnished. We fear there
will be suffering this winter owing to
the high price Of everything, unless
this matter is attended to. It is a du
ty wo owe the men who are fighting
the battles of Use Republic, and who
aro encountering suffering and death
that our liberties may be preserved.
Coasting.—The boys, as usual du
ring winter, commenced last week
coasting on their sleds down the hill
in the streets of the centre of the
town. We would caution the young,
not to rido nor slide on the side
walks where tho snow is not cleared,
as they sometimes do, for it not only
makes walking dangerous, but they
are also in the way of those persons
vho are traveling.
The Draft—The time is drawing
closer and closer, every day, when
the next draft will take place. The
heavy bounties offered by the Gov
ernment, ought to secure, of itself, the
quota of the State, and wo trust it
will do so. A draft, ought, if possi
ble, to be avoided. Meetings are be
ing held, in certain parts of the coun
ty, to promote enlistments. Persons
it may be proper to say, will be heard
on their claims of exemption, after•as
well us before the draft; but it will be
well for all per4ons claiming exemp
tion to have their cases disposed of at
once.
THE wan Slaughter, so brutally mal
treated by -barber Sam. Richardson,
some time ago, has recovered, and is
in the performance of his businCss.--
Sam, by the by, who was lodged in
jail for the offence, in order to shelter
tinder other than the "strong arm of
the law," endeavored to escape by
burning a plank in the room in which
he was confined. He failed in his ob
ject, and wo suppose, through the re
sults of disappointment, and the magic
power of threats, all his hopes for es
cape are now blasted, and ho will wait_
patiently for the day of his trial.
Sfiow.—Another fall of snow—and
yet no sleigh-bells. Tho rondo were
covered during the latter part of last
week with the white and fleecy man
tle, but no one overcome patience to
venture the fitness of sleigh and ponies
on the favorite element. Tho gay
and sportiNie, however, live in hopes.
GET IN ICE.—We would now advise
all those who have any dealings with
ice to prepare the houses for receiving
it, us soon as possible. Suffer not
from delay.
Wounded.—Wo learn by a commu
found on the outside of to-day's paper
that Sergt. Henry B. Geissinger, and
Private Oliver Lease, of Co :C. 53rd.
Penna. Vole., from this county, were
severely wounded in a late skirmish
on the south side of the Rapidan.
la. Our town bus been somewhat
crowded of late, principally by per
sons whose object has been to see
what their portion is concerning the
draft; to offer their claims of exemp-
tion; and to ascertain who are to be
exempted, and who not.
'till' Although we thought, from the
prophecies of the weather-prophets,
we would have had an curlier winter,
yet, from the state of the atmosphere
and. other signs, for the past few days,
it is the common belief that
, winter
JIRB now commenced in good earnest.
Attractive.—Wu have every sign
that Christmas is near, for as is usual
on this holiday the various show-win
dows present very attractive appear
ances, captivating the eyes of all be•
holders, and causing many a pittance
to disappear or. the sly.
A TURKEY FUR CIIRISTMAS.-OR
Monday last we received from our
friend Simon Cohn, of Coffee Run, a
turkey for our Christmas dinher. sir.
Cohn will please accept our thanks,
and we hope ho may have a happy
Christmas and plenty of cash custom

The Secretary of the Ttettaury hue noir)! given notices
orally intention to withdraw this popular Loan front sale
at Par, and until ten days notice /a Own, the underelgn•
od, m "General Substripion Agent," will cAntinue to dui
ply tho public,
The whole amount of the Loan authorised le Flee nun
dred Millions of Dollar,. Nearly VOW' Hundred Millions
have bean already subscribed for etal:pald into the Treas
ury, mostly within the last seven months. The large de
mand from abroad, and the rapidly increasing home de
mand fur use as the baste for circulation by National
Banking Aesoclations now organising in all parts of the
country, will, in n very abort period, abdorb the balance.
Bales have lately ranged from ten to fifteen millions
weekly, frequently exceeding three millions daily, and as
It le well known that the Secretary of the Treasury has
ample and uutußing resources in the Duties on Imports
and Internal Revenues, awl in the issue of the Interest
bearing Legal Tender Treasury Notes, It is almost a cer
tainty that he will not find it necessary, for a long time
to come, to seek a market fur any other long or perma
nent. Leans, TUE INTEREST AND PRINCIPAL OF
WIIICII ARE PAYABLE IN GOLD.
Prudence an d aetf.in ferret must force the minds of tho
contemplating the formation of National Banking Assoc!
ations, as well as the minds of all who have idle money
on their hands, to the prompt conclusion that they should
lose no time in eubseribing to this molt popular Loan. It
will soon be beyond their reach, and advance to a hand
some premium, as was the result with the "Seven-Thirty"
Loan, when it was all sold and eould no longer be sub.
scribed fur at par.
It is a six per coat Loa; Lim Interest and Principal
ynyablo in Coin, thus yielding.over Nine per 'sat. per an
num at the present rata of promlum on coin.
The Goo ernment requiree all ditties on Imports to he
paid to Coin; these duties have, for a long time past,
amounted to over a Quarter of a Million of Dollars daily,
a stun nearly three times greater than that required in
the payment of the Interest on all the 5-ilo'e and other
permanent Loans. So that it is hopod that the surplus
Coin in the Treasury, at no distant day, rflll enable ilia
Uniud States to resume *tub payments upon all llattill
tleo.
The Loan Is esdieJ from the toot that whilst the
rotate may rue for 20 years, yet the Geyer: meat has a
right to pay them ottln Elold, at par, at any this° atter
3 ears.
Tho Interest le Paid bultyoarly, viz :—ou :tho flrAt; diky4
of November and !day.
Subscriber. can have Coupon Roads, which are plaid.,
to bearer, and are $5O, $lOO, $5OO, and AGO . or Regis
bored Bonds of same denominations, and in addition, $5OOO
and $lO.OOO. For Banking putposes and for investments
of Trust•monioa the Registered [tondo are preface:de.
Them 5-10's cannot be taxed by States, cities, town. or
counties, nod tho o:loTornmant tax on them to only one
and a half per coot,, on tho amount of income, when the.
income of the holder exceeds Six Hundred dollar, per an.
num , all other investments, such as It coinefront Mort.
gages, Bailrond Stock and Bonds, etc., must pay from
three to five per cent. tax on the income.

The inconvenience of a row days' delay in the delivery
of the Bonds la unavoidable, the demand being no groat

Ito ion is occasioned, and every effort is - being made to
diminish the delay. "
