• We published las ttireek a notice from
John B. Bielunxn,Esq.,that hohad been
appointed Chairman ef the Committee, to
raise funds-Sor the Sanitary Commission,
also the 1119211.03 Of COXlgattee, to raise funds
,ter the Fair, to take place in Philadelphia.
in June next, for the same purpose. The,
- committee feel the responsibilityof their I
work, and require a perfect concert of,
action in this, groat work of labor and
lave, and call upon our. patriotic citizens,
to give them their hearty co-operation. /
We.are now enabled to state, that the
ciaiimitteehas secured the services of Rev.
.john Cromlish, who will deliver a lecture
in Odd Fellows' Hall, on Tuesday even,
ing next, the 17th inst.
The committee have'aoceptod the offer
made bysHarris d.; Clifton's great Bur,
losque Operatic Troupe, who propose to
give an entertainment for the same 'audi
ble purpose; public notice of t . o timo
will be given in a few days.
Perhaps there is nothing whioh ap
peals so strongly to the sympathy, and
moves the heart so promptly to action, as
the sickness, distress and suffering of our
friends and relatives. Kind ladies and
gentlemen of Columbia, we appeal to you
to conic forth and aid in this great work.
Are not the soldiers who have left their
homes, their ' families, their farms, their
work-shops, and gone forth to fight the
anti nos battles, our friends ? they are
certainly not our enemies-Lthousands of
them have been stricken down by disease
and the fate of the battle field—many of
whom, if they recover at all, will return
to their homes with brolten.constitutions,
'maimed and crippled for life. These no
ble sons of our llepublie,who rushed into
the battle with buoyant heart and strong
arms, have now become as helpless infants,
legs and arms amputated, bones fractured
and broken, lacerated flesh, pierced with
the enemy's bullets and bayonets, now
appeals to you felloa. - .litizens, men wo

the necessaries and comforts which their

Country? and shall that country be.guil
ty of ingratitude because they have been
unfortunate ? /Pe we not bound by
every principle of humanity to make
these brave soldiers as comfortable as
cfircumstances will admit of ? Then lot
.very effort be made to raise funds for ,
said purpose.
The Sanitary Commission has resorted
to almost every lawful means to raise
fonds so as to reach all classes of persons.
The different modes may not be conge
nial to the feelings and taste of all ; yet
they produce funds, and the funds re
lieve the sick and wounded, so that the
great object is effected.
Aggin'Afe say encourage every effort
to raise s. If you do not wish to
attend the lecture, or concert, buy a
ticket for each, and thereby assist the
committee in their humane efforts. Let
li l a show to the public that Columbia and
iicinity is a friend to the soldier both
in the field and hospital.
Facts About the National Banks
The number of National Banks now
organized is three hundred and ninety
three. The aggregate amount of capital
invested in these banks is sixty million
dollars, with an aggregate of stocks or
bonds deposited with the Treasurer of
United States, as a basis of eircula
-sn, ortlairty millions. -
t The first bank esfalilistted under the
act of bra 1863, was the First NatiOiall
)fank ti - niladolphia, which was .organ
bed on the 30th of . jucre, 1863. The
largest in the country is the Fourth Na
tional Bank of New York city, whose
capital is five millions of dollars..
Tho notes for circulation of every Na
tional Bank established are issued from
the bureau of the Comptrollers of—the
Currency, in Washington. Tho whole,
amount of circulation issued to National
Banks up to April 15th,1864, was 815,,

everythingetill looks encouraging, though
the rebels are contesting the road with a
desperation that is causing both to them
and ourselves. eavy losses. The strug
gle is a terrible one—perhaps, hardly
equalled in the history of the wars of the
world. General Grant is pushing his
plans with a steady persistency and an
indomitable courage, that will take no
denial of success, Our losses, as well as
theirs, have been tremendous.

' The rebels are removing the prisoners

Officers.who have left the army, describe
t'ao -fighting since the passage of the
Rapidan, as almost continuous, but they
all speak confidently.
Thus far the rebels have not succeed

The destruction in the Rebel army has
been horrible, while in our own it is of
no mean magnitude. All through the

Ils.irso • :4-4-Having just arrived at
' the harspitalfronithe:front, I will give
you a few. details of the doings of the 45th
in the late engagement, on - last' Fri.. •
and'Saturday, withia correct list of the
names of the killed•and wounded in corn;
panies!'B" and "K," rip to Sunday morn
ing last. Ai I was not able to ascertain
the names of those killed or wounded in
the other companies, and I thought it
would beinore important to,your readers
to know who, of their friends, have been
either killed or wounded in the two Lan
caster county companies. Burnside's Ex
pedition left Annapolis on the 23d nit.,
via. the overland route, through Wash
ington, and after a hard, dusty march of
three days, encamped near Alexandria,
Va., about two miles from the Long
Bridge, which we crossed. After resting
a day we again took up the line of mar ch,
passing through Fairfax Court House,
marching over a portion of the Bull Run
battle-field and fording the Bull Run
Creek, we arrived at Brandy Station, on
the ,Orange & Alexandria Railroad., on
the 20th, without anything worth note
occurring, having marched about seventy
five miles. Our regiment was stationed
at two different points on the road, doing
guard duty—three companies, A, B and
0 being sent a mile up the road to Knox
ville Station, the remainder stopping at
Kettle Run bridge, 33 miles from Alex- .
andria. We were not long allowed to re
main inaotiv3; however, as orders came
from Gen. Grant to abandon the road, as
there were at least fifty days rations in the
front, and send all the available force
possible, to aid in the coining battle.
Accordingly, on the 4th inst. we took
up the line of march for the scene of
active hostilities, with five days rations
in haversacks, and as many more in wag
ons.
After a forced march of two days, du
ring which time we went about 35 miles,
crossed the Rapidan at Germania Ford,
and encamped in the wilderness about
dark, with orders to be ready to move at
a moments notice. During the evening
there was very heavy musketry in our
front, and we were told to be in readi
ness for an engagement on the morrow.
About 2 o'clock in the morning, we
were ordered to march, and came up to
the battle ground of the previous day
at daylight. Before the day had fairly
dawned, the combatants' began their
bloody work, and it was one continual roar
of musketry during the greater part of
the day.. There was not much artillery
used on either side, during the two days
fight, owing to the dense forest and un
derbrush, it could not be brought into
position without endangering the lives of
friends, as well as foes; but what was
deficient in artillery was fully made up
iu infantry.
I am not much acquainted with the
position of our army in general, but the
9th Corps occupied a central position.
Two companies of our Regiment, 'l3,'
and "K" were deployed as skirmishers
about 9 o'clock, and advanced about a
mile thAougli a dense pine forest, coining
in contact with the enemy's skirmishers
about 12 o'clock, when a sharp fire was
. • r i during which '
„r _ evir

e:
sides; but this- did - not continue long,-
and soon the "'baffle became general.—
The 45th which was in front, behaved
nobly, and added fresh laurels to those
already won notwithstanding two new
regiments in the Ist brigade broke, and
left it to sustain the brunt of the fight.—
The Rebels piled up theirdead and threw
dirt over them for breast-works. I cannot
form any estimate of the number killed
and wounded on either side; but it was
one of the bloodiest battles ever fought.
I believe it is called The Wilderness
Battle.
Three times we charged the rebel en
trenchments;but was twice repulsed, the
third time carrying the works, and cap
turing DO ,prisoners, among them many
officers, beii 'es a stand of colors. The
colors of the - 45th came very near being
taken twice, and were alone saved by the
undaunted bravery and impetuosity of the
regiment. Five of the eight color guard
were either killed or wounded. The re
giment was in front for fifty hours;before
it was relieved, and lost more men in pro
portion, than any other regiment in the
Corps, as the following list of causalities
will prove :
Company A, 1 killed and 7 wounded ;

several of us left yesterday, 'walking to
Belle Plain Landing, 10 miles from the
former place,
and embarked on board a
nsteamboat for Washington, where we
arrived about ten o'clock. this morning,
with many others from different rev,
ments. On account of the great number
of wounded, those having slight wounds
in arms and.
,bodies, were compelled to ,
walk, as all the ambulances were needed
to carry the worst eases, and we had a
hard time of it. For about two days and
part of two nights we followed the ambu
lances, and I don't exaggerate a bit when
I say we had to march 30 miles, through
the heat and dust, with our. wounds un

At present no mail is allowed to leave
the Army of the Potomac, and knowirlliti
that our friends at home feel anxious,
bout the welfare of those in the army,
took the first opportunity of enlightening
them in regar'd to them. The mail to
the army has not been stopped, I believe,
and those wishing to write to their friends
in the army can do so without hindrance
on the part of the mail. The 45th is in
the Ist Brig., 2nd Div., 9th Corps, and
those writing will address their letters in
that mannerrtidding Washington, D. C.
While many will rejoice in the safety
of their dear ones, others will have to
mourn their loss; for numbers have fall
en on the battle-field, nobly doing their
duty, even at..the risk of their lives.
The only consolation we have, is they
sacrificed their lives at; their country's
alter, in defence of her right and liber
ties, all that is held dear to the nation.
May God comfort the bereaved ones at

I never knew Finley Johnson person

writer, "that Jeff. Davis' son, by his slave
girl Catharine, was in the Federal service
on board of one of our gunboats in the
Mississippi for several months—a likely
mulatto. Among the letters of Jeff. ta
ken at his house by our Illinois troops,
there was a batch of quarrelsome epistles
between Jeff. and Mrs. Davis, touching
the old flame Catharine. Mrs. Davis up
braided her husband bitterly. I have
this story from one of the highest officers

on board his gunboat, and who himself
read the letters and suppressed them."

U. S. 10-40 BONDS.
These Bonds are issued Mader the ACt of
Congressof•Marchsth,lB64. - vrhich provides
that all Bends issued under this Act shall
be EXEMPT FROM TAXATION by or
under any.state or municipal authority.---•
Stiteoriptions to these Bonds are rooeiVed
in United, States notes oruotes of N - ational
Banks. They are TO' BFI 'REDEEMED
IN COIN, at the pleasure of the GoVerun
ment r at Anygwaiiii .nos less ten-•than-nor.
snore than forty years, from their date, and
until their redeinption r 2 v s. PER CENT. •
INTEREST WILL BE PAID IN C01N,,.
on Bonds of not over one hundred dollars
annually and on all ati)pr Bonds semit.an-.
nnally. The intert Is payable ontheilvit
days of March and Septeinberin'eaChYear
Subscribers will receive
ed or Boupon Xtonds, as they.may. prefer.,
Registered Bonds are recorded on the *eke,
of the U. S. Treasurer, and can be tranfet:-
red only. on the owner's 'order. :Coupon
Bpnds'are payable to bearer., and are more
convenient for. commercial uses.
Subscribers to this loan wilthave the 0r.%
tion of having their Bonds draw interest
from March Ist, by paying the accrued in
terest in coin—(or in United States notes t.
or the notes of National Banks,addingfifty
per., - cent. for prerniu,m,) or receive them
drawing interest from the dale of subscrip
tion and deposit. As these Bonds. are
Exempt from Municipal or State Taxation,
their value Ls increased from one to threo
per cent, per annum, according to the rot°
of tax levies in various parts of the country,
$620,626.00
a&1,875,16
2.5,665,161,036,066,42
.
At tho present rate of pretuiwii on gold
they pay
Over Eight Per Cent Interst
in currency, and are of equal conveniene4
as a permanent or temporary investment,.
It is believed that no securities offer so,
groat inducements to lenders as the various
descriptions of U..S. Bonds. In all °thew
forms of indebtedness, the faith or ability
of private parties or stock companies or
separate communities only is pledlrt4SClL
payment, while for the debts of the United -
States the whole property of the country
is holden to secure the payment of both
principrd, and interest in coin,
These Bonds may be subscribed for in
sums from 650i' up to any magnitude, otrtho
seine terms, and are thus made Anali s y
available to the smallest lender and the
largest capitalist. They can be converted
into money at any moment, and the holder
will have the benefit of the interest.
It may be useful to state in this connec
tion that the total Funded Debt ofthetTni
ted States on which interest is payable in
gold, on the 3d day of March, 1864, was
$708,065,000. The interest on this debt for
the coming Rseal-year will be $45,037,1W,
whilVhe customs revenue In gold for the
current fiscal year, ending June 30th, 1&H.
has been so fur ut the rate of over $lOO,OOO,
000 per annum.
It will be seen that even thepresent gold
revenues of the flovernment are largely in
excess of the wants of the Treasurer forth°
payment or gold interest, while the recent
increase of the tariff will doubtless raise
the annual receipts front customs on the
same amount ofimportations, to $150,000,0001
per annum.
