titiatied tlltang. , between hOpe arta - fear.
wating.and waitching in awful suspense,
the SO mutants and cpperations- of lava&
itsifeea, who were marchingalmost unop
rind over the soil of onr , sister stare
"My Maryland"—robbing itsinhabitantF,
burning their buildings'. and deiolatiug
their fertile field .R; and who sere boldly
ramming tile border of our own State,
and threatening the capture of our Na-
Capit.,l.
.;
During this excitement every eye was
nn the alert, and every ear 'was open to
catch the least gleam of hope. although
it may have boen -but a rumor Wen :dung
en-the breeze, the natural inquiry was :
what is the news ?
A call was made for men--st.veral war
meeting were beld--meoure of our citi
zens subscribed liberally; our young
men showed a noble and patriotic spirit,
And another company of voluirtee s was

nobly, it is to be regroted that a large
. portion cf our property owners neither
-attended those meetings Jwr subscribed
to the bounty funtMoin - e of whom arc
the first to close their places of business,
and attend church, or days set apart for
:fasting a ],prayer.ur A regiment is comps-
ed of a thotisand fighting men, all have to
Be fed, clothed and paid; our army must
be increased; the Governmentwants men,
ind the men who leave their homes and
families to fight our battles must be paid.
Persons who say they arc in favor of
crushing out this rebellion by force of
arms, who do nothing to assist the Gov.
ernmont in carrying out their wish, are
mere hipocrits. No man is a patriot, in
these times, unless he is inquiring, what
can Ido to save my country ? Let every
one make this inquiry, and when ho hes
assertained his duty, let him go to work
and perform it.
The rebels have succeeded in making
good their escape across the Potomac.—
They commenced recrossing on Wednes
day morning, opposite Poolsville. They
had stolen about two thou'and head of
cattle which they were driving before
thee. In the action at - Fort Stevens
rebels met with
_a severe repulse. and
retreated during the night, leaving. at.
the house of F. P. Blair one hundred of
their wounded, including eleven officers,
and also left their dead on thefield. Their
fighting was only to cover their retreat,
and enable them to get all their plunder
safe across the river. We believe it was
only a raid in force, to get, something to
eat; it is now ended, and Baltimore and
washington breathes easier.
NEW STYLE OF PoST.likE STAMPS.—
Owing to the frauds committed by per
sons removing the marks from old poSt
age stamps, the Post Office Department
considering the introduction of a stamp
that can be used but once, It is thus
described : "The body of the stamp is
made of goldbeater's skin (instead of
paper) which is tough and so nearly
transparent that the printed impression
shows almost as well ou one side as on
the other. The design, the legend. nu
merals, &c., are intended to be read
through from beneath, and therefore
printed in reverse. When the stamp is
wet and blued on the letter, it remains
permanent and unchanged, Until some
person attempt, te peel it of. lie then
finds that the printed matter remains at
tached to the lett.sr. while the gold-beat
er's akin conies of quite colorless, and
having scarcely trace of "postage" about
it.
A late Richmond paper says that Tb,ly
wood Cemetery is becoming thickly pop
plated with the dead of their gallant sol
diers expiring in Richmond hospitals.—
Corpses arrive at the cemetery faster
than they can be interred by the limited
foreo allowed for that purpose, and as
high as twenty-five green pine coffins,
far-timed with only one nail in each end
have lately been seen there warped open
by the sun, exposing the putrescent
bodies to full view, emitint; sickening
octets and attracting swarms of dies.

It is believed that no securities offer so
great inducements to lenders as the various
descriptions of ti. 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 besubscribedb for hi
sums from $5O unto any magnitude, on the
same terms, and are thus made equally
atiailable to the smallest lender and the
largest capitalist. They can be converted
into money at any moment, and the holder
will ha ve.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 :Starch, 1061, was
$709,905,000. -The interest on this debt for
the coining fiscal bo $45,937,120,
while the customs revenue in gold for the
current fiscal year, ending June 30th, 1564,
has been so fur 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
ex.•ess of the wants of the Treasurer forthe
payment of gold interest, while the recent
increase of the tariir will doubtless raise
the annual receipts from customs on the
sameamount ofimpor unions, to $150,000,000
per annum.
