What is to be Done With the Cementa
tion bloneyi
In the recent message of the President
to Congress, inclosing the letter of Pro
vost Marshal-General Fry, urging the
repeal of the commutation clause in the
act for 'the enrollment of the national
forces, the grounds of the recommenda
tion were, that the commutation produc
ed large sums of money bat few men.—
What is to be done with the commuta
tion money is-not stated. The new bill
usually called_ the "Conscription bill,"
has no clause-in reference to, the appro
priation of the money'paid for commuta
tion. The - object of the provision cer
tainly is that each three hundred dollars
shall produce a elan, and the theory of
the Old law was that the Government
would apply the money thus raised in
payment of bounties. Senator Wilson
said in the Senate, on Monday last, that
volunteering had already produced one
million seven hundred thousand or eight
hundred thousand men. How many
men have been raised by drafting?
The aggregate held to service under
the last draft has been stated, and the
number furnish6d, in comparison to the
number demanded, was insignificant.—
The remainder of the men drawn were
either exempted for causes specified in
the law, or thez Raid commutation.—
As long as the t..4srernment offered three
hundred dollars bounty to each fresh vol
unteer, acid four hundred dollars to each
veteran,' but little difficulty existed ie ob
tainieg volunteers, and many districts
filled up - their quotas. If a new draft is
called for, and the commutation money is
specifically appropriated—three hundred
dollars for each volunteer that offers—
the Government will get all that it re
quires under the draft. It will obtain
the drafted men who are held to service;
and theli is every probability that it will
get a man for every commuter. It can
get no more under a draft than those
who elect to serve and those who would I
commute if-they could, and are not ex
empt for causes mtntioned in the law.—
If thelateer are plrinitted to macumothi
there is'every probability that volunteeis
can be obtained for three hundred dol
lars per man beside the offer of local
bounties, As long, however, as the law
remains as at present, the Government
using the commutation money for gener
al purposes, and no bounty being offered,
the difficulties complained of by Provost
Marshal-General Fry will continue.
It is now certain that Congress will
not repeal the commutation clause. The
action of the Committee of the Senate
and the 'House, and those bodies, also
establishes this as a certain conclusion.
Let theribe a lam passed, then, that the
Commutation fund shall specifically ap
plied in bounties to volunteers, alld the
present,difficulties are likely to be dispell
ed by such action.—Jnquirer.
Negro Enlistments
lam informed from official quarters
that the Government is really in earnest
in the work of enlisting negro troops for
the war in Kentucky. Gen. Thomas
has the matter in hand. The roads are
swarming- with able.bodi3d black men
hastening to the various rendezvous to
be mustered into the service. On Sat
nrday last, I am told, six hundred stal
wart blacks came into ono rendezvous in,
Kentucky; that they are coming in fast
er at all the rendezvous than they can be
examined and mustered in ; that the
Government will have ten colored reg
iments in the service before July Ist,
from Kentucky; that two of them will
ba from the• southwestern part of the
State, and that the recent raid of John
Morgan has melted away prejudices and
quickened the desire of the whites to fill
np the quota of the State with negro
troops. So. that, after all, Kentucky
will be saved at last by the slave, who
has been her glory and her shame—her
glory in her labor, and her shame in his
cruel oppiession.—X Y. Evening Post.
The 31 ew Loan.
The,govornment credit remains good
in of military disappointments and
rumors. of disaster to our arms. Large
sales of the new seventy-five millions loan,
part of which was taken last week as low
four per cent. premium. The faith of
our people in the ultimate success of the
government in its efforts to put down the
rebellion, s thus shown anew. It is felt
everywhere that there is no safer mode
of investi.pg money than in government
securities.

The Hans*. of Representatives, on
last Tneliitly,:refased, by a vote of 100
against 50, to repeal the $3OO commuta
tion clause - in the Enrollment Bill.—
Rauh a result, by so . large a majority,
took everyone by surprise.

Movements near Lynchburg
From the detailed accounts of the move
ments of Crooks and Averill, which ap
pear in the Richmond Lityitircr of June
13th, it seems that our forces did not ad

McCausland attempted to resist our ad
vance, but Crooks and Averill cutuum
bered and flanked him on both sides, and
he fell back to Balcony. MeCausland's
force appears to be all militia. In these
accounts uo mention is made of Hunter,
from which it might seem that he had
' gone in some other direction. Some por

than comfortably fixed before a Federal

The Tree of Death
A correspondent writing from Sher
man's army, says':-:—"There is a tree in
front of Gen. Harroir's Fourth Division,
Fifteenth Army" Corps, which is called
the fatal tree. Eight man were shot, one
after another, as soon as they advanced
to the ill-fated tree to take a socure posi
tion behind its huge trunk. Seven men
wero shot, when a board was placed there
with the word "dang,erer.:3" chalked upon
it. The rebels shot the guide-board in
to fragments, and a Sergeant took his
place behind the unsuspecting tree. In
less than five minutes two minie balls
pierced the Sergeant's body, and he fell
the eighth martyr, beneath the shadow
of the tree of death."

mac, June 21—L5 A.M.--Some skirmish
ing took place along the line yesterday
and last evening; but no change of po
sition has been made by either party- dur
ing the last two days.
The enemy are busily engaged in throw
ing up works at different points, and al
though our lines reach within three quar
ters of a-mile of the city, they seem de
termined to hold it till the last.
The wounded have nearly all been sent
to City Point, where the hospitals are ar
ranged for them.
Colonel Tippen, of the Sixty-eighth
Pennsylvania, who was lately released

He was captured at Crottysburg, and has
only been recently exchanged.
BALTIMORE, June 23.—A letter re
ceived from Fortress Monroe says that
up to 10-30 on Monday morning, there
had been no general engagement.
Skirmishing was all the time going on
along the lines. The rebels have made
several efforts to thrbw up earthworks
near the James River, in the vicinity of
Turkey Bend and Malvern Hills, but
have as often been shelled out by our
gunboats.
Supplies have been sent to White House
to Gen. Sheridan, his command having
arrived in that vicinity.
The Richmond papers report an attack
on Lynchburg by General Hunter, on
Saturday, and that he was repulsed. It
is believed, however, that there was noth
ing
more than a reconnoissance, and that
having ascertained that place tobe strongly
defended, General Hunter withdrew and
is operating upon the eaemy's communi
cations at other points.

head-quarters, doted the .Ist inst., at
half-past eight o'clock, P. M., states that,
"It has rained almost incessantly, in spite

take the position last night, making seven
distinct assaults on General Whittaker's
Brigade of Stanley's Division, and losing
no less than seven or eight hundred men.
"Two hundred killed were left on Whit
taker's front.
"The assault was followed ,by a heavy
fire of artillery, under which the position
was fortified and is new safe.
"Our cavalry is across Noonday Creek,
on our left, and one brigade of the Twen
ty-third Corps is across Noses Creek, on
the right; but. the Rebel left is behind a
swamp, and the rains precentany advance.
The fighting is quite severe at all points.

and attempting the offensive whenever he
can."

(To StmschauEss.—The expence of
publishing a newspaper is now nearly
doubled, we therefore must request sub
scribers to - pay hp promptly. The a
mount is small to the subscriber, but in the
aggregate will foot up a handsome sum to
us. The subscription of many of our sub
scribers will expirh, on the 2nd of July next,
and if not pa.id before that time $2,50 wilflbc
charged. To publish a newspaper .at the
present price of white paper is a sinking
fund to us. According to the price of other
things we should have $5.00 per annum for
our paper, in place of $1,50 in advance. We
...)
do not intend to increase the subscrip
tion of the paper if we can help it—but
the time is obviously near when we shall
be obliged to do so.

==l
These Bonds ain.isstied under the Act of
Congress of March Bth, 1364. which provides
that all Bonds issued under this Act shall
be EXEMPT FROM TAXATION by or
under any state or municipal authority.—
Subscriptions to these Bonds are received
in United States notes or notes of National
Banks. They are TO BE REDEEMED
IN COIN, at the pleasure of the Govern
ment, at any period not lets ten than nor
snore than forty years from their date, and
until their redemption FIVE PER CENT.
INTEREST WILL BE PAID IN COIN,
on Bonds of not over one hundred dollars
annually and on all other Bonds 'semi-an
nually. The interest , is payable on the first
days of March and September in each year
Subscribers will receive either Register
ed or Doupon Bonds, as they may prefer.
Registered Bonds are recorded on the books
of the IT. S. Treasurer, and can be tranfer
red only on the owner's order. Coupon
Bonds are payable to bearer, and are more
convenient for commercial uses.
'Subscribers to this loan will have the op
tion of hawing their Bonds draw interest
from March Ist, by paying the accrued in
terest in coin—(or in United States, notes,
or the notes of National Banks, addingfifty
per cent. for premium,) or receive them
drawing interest from the date of subscrip
tion and deposit. As these Bonds are
• Exempt' from Maticipat or Statrtittatioe;•'
their value is increased from one to three
per cent. per annum, according to the rate
of tax levies in various parts of the country.
At the present rate of premium on gold
they pay
Over Eight Per Cent Intent
in currency, and are of equal convenience
as a permanent or temporary investment.
It is believed that no securities offer so
great inducements to lenders as thevarlous
descriptions of U. S. Bonds. In all other
forms of indebtedness, the - faith or ability
of private parties or stock companies or
separate communities only is pledged for
payment, while for the debts of the United
States the whole property of the country
is holden to secure the payment of both
principal and interest in coin.
These Bonds may be subscribed for in
sums from up to any magnitude, on the
same terms, and are thus made equally
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 of the Uni
ted States on which interest is payable in
gold, on the 3d day of March, 1804, was
$708,005,000. The interest on this debt for
the coming fiscal year will be $45,937,126,
while the customs revenue in gold for the
current fiscal year, ending June 30th, 1864,
has been so far at the rate of over $lOO,OOO,
000 per annum.
It will be seen that even thepresent gold
revenues of the Government are largely in
excess of the wants of the Treasurer for the
payment of gold interest, while the recent
increase of the tariff will doubtless raise
the annual receipts from customs on the
same :non nt of im portat ions, to 3150,001.0,01*
per annum.
Instructions to the National Banks noting
au loan agents were not issued fronaZthe
United States Treasury until March
but in thb first three weeks or :April the
subscriptions averaged more than TEN
mmuloss A NVEEK.
Subscriptions will be received by the
First National Bank of Philadelphia, Pa
