The expense of keeping up a news paper is double what it used to be, and everything, in our line has to be paid foi in cash. The paper dealer and the type foun der, demand the cash, the merchant, the butcher, the workmen and others do like wise—and why not the printer? Every in dividual who las a heart large enough to bepenetrated by the least ray of liberality and generosity, or to emit the slightest * morsel of favor or regard for us, cannot but see tine justness of our demands for prompt payment. The only way to save our establishment from debt and disgrace is the prompt payment of all bills due this office. The subscription price to our pa per i n $3,00 per annum in advance ; but if act paid until the expiration of the year, ss ; 5u will be charged. These terms will be strictly adhered to.

BEAurrFuL.—We attended divine ser vice at the Episcopal Church, (Rev. John Cromlish,) last Sabbath, and noticed a rather novel ornament placed over the arch of the chancel. It is the national colors on a shield surmounted with the cross—at most beautiful design, conceived by the pastor, and executed by Hortsman Brothers of Phil'a. We understand it wal placed there by individual subscription.— It is the neatest thing of the kind we ever beheld. I'mm:ca.—The large "breaks" in the dam present fine opportunities for fishing.

EXAMINATION AT TIIE INSTITUTE.- The examination, at the Columbia Classi cal Institute, took place on Tuesday and Wednesday last, and was one of the most successful ever held. All passed through the ordeal with great credit. Praise is due the Principal, Teachers and Students. The Columbia Classical Institute, under its present Principal, Rev. H. S. Alexan der, is a decided success, and our citizens inhy pride themselves that we have in our midst, one of the best institutions of learn ing in the State. The next session com mences on the ith of September. IMPROVEMENT.—We are glad to see that our "City Fathers" have awoke from their lethargy. The spirit of improvement has taken hold of them and now that it has commenced we hope it may continue. The alleys of our town have been in such a condition for a long time as to make it unsafe for a vehicle of any kind to drive through them, but we may now indulge in the hope that it will soon be remedied. The alley from Front to lith street, between Locust ab Cherry, was one of the worst,but the Supervisor, Mr. Chalfant, has now a corps of laborers on it and it will soon be In a fine condition. The work Is already completed between 2nd it ard streets, and a finer paved alley cannot be found In any of our largo cities. We hope some atten tion will be paid to the alley between 2nd 4 Walnut, the perfume from which as centla nasalwards, and is by no means pleasant.

He will be assisted by Miss Caroline Richings and other eminent artistes. It promises to be ono of the best en ter Min meats ever hold in Lan caster. G ODEY'S Lady's Book for July is a love of a number. The steel engravings and the fashion plates are exquisitely beautiful and elegant. Its contents arc more than usually interesting. Marion Harland contributes a first rate story, en titled, "Bessie's Baby," which will be read with pleasure. Every lady who wishes a live magazine—one combining all classes of literature and fashion,— should send their subscriptions at once to L. A. Godey, Gth and it; Chestnut St., Phil adelphia. One copy one year $3.00. ATLANTIC NONTIILY.—The July number of the Atlantic Monthly is already out, and is filled as usual, with the best literary matter. The President's murder gives the text for an interesting article on political assassinations, the substance of which has been used before in the daily press. Mr. B. P. Whipple devotes the leading article to an account of young men in history, showing by various instan ces how much activity and energy young men are possessed of. There is a pleasant desez iption of a trip around Mull from Dumbarton, penned by Miss. Commins, and a characteristic poem, styled " The Changeling," Whittier. Bayard Taylor, Donald G. Mitchell, (Ike Marvel,) G. W. Hosiner, T. B. Aldrich, and Mrs. Stowe, with one or two others,complete the writers for a very entertaining number of an ex cellent magazine.

THE WIDE SPREAD FAME OF MISII LER'S HERB BITTERS Th o great intrinsic merits of M ISH LBWS itatly celebrated HERB BITTERS are rapidly acquiring for them a reputation as wide as this vast Continent. It has not been a great while since they were first offered to the public. They speedily came into favor in Lancaster city and county, and the many wonderful cures wrought by means of their instrumentality caused their fume to spread with unprecedented rapidity throughout this and the adjoin ing States. They are now known and recognized as one of the most efficacious medicinal agents ever devised for the re lief of suffering humanity throughout the various States of the Union. Their fame hes reached our remotest territorial re gions ; and from all quarters comes up the same unvarying testimony to their won derful efileacy. Very many aro the astonishing cures wrought by them, which are constantly being attested and certified to by the mul titudes who have been the recipients of re stored health through their agency. From time to time some of the multitude of cer tificates constantly being received by the proprietor of this popular remedy, are laid before the public, that the people may see for themselves that they wi 11 ettect cer tain cures of all the various disease tv the removal of which they are adapted. Only yesterday. a copy of the New Mexico Press, a paper published at the far off town of Albuquerque, in the Territory of New .lexico, and printed one-half in English and the other half in the S2anish language, was received by Mr. :dishier. In its le cal columns the following notice of Mr. Mishler's Celebrated Herb Bitters weLs found : "We are told that Mishler's Bitters is a wonderful remedy. A gentleman, whose name we are not at liberty to disclose, has been radically cured of the gravel, and several others have used them with suc cess in rheumatism a ndsimilar complaint , . Straehan, who introduced it into this ter ritory, should bring out a large supply this year." 'Hie above notice speaks fur itself. It was unsolicited and unsought for. and the proprietor of this great remedy Wall quite surprised when he saw it. It is only another slight testimonial to the univer sality of the relief afforded to diseased and suffering humanity by the great modern remedy, Mishlor's Celebrated Herb Bit ters. may G, PENS! PENS!

S. 7-30 LOA N. $230,000.000. - By authority of the Secretary of the Treasury, the undersigned. the General Subscription Agent for the Sale oftrnited . - States Securities, o ff ers to the- public the third series of Treasury :rotes, bearing seven and three-tenths per cent_ interest per annum, known as the 7-30 LOAN These notes are issued, under date of July 16th 1864, and are payable three years from that date in currency, or are convert, able at the option of the holder into V. S. 5-'2O Six pet• ccnt. GOLD-BEABIING BONDS These Beds are now worth a - handsome premium, and are exempt, as are all the Government Bonds, from State, County, and Munincipal taxation, which adds from one to three per cent. per annum to agar value, according to the rate levied upon other property. The interest is payable semi-annually by coupons attached to each note, which may be cut off and sold to any bank or banker. The interest at 7.30 par cent. amounts to One cent per day on a $5O note. P. " $lOO " 46 44 at $5OO at Two cents " " Ten " 20 " " " " $lOOO " $1 " " " $5OOO " Notes of all the denomiantigns named wiltbe promptly furnished upon receipt of subscriptions. The notes of this Third Series are precise ly similar in form and privileges to the Seven-Thirties already sold, except that the Government reserves to itself the op tion of paying interest in gold coin a Q per cent instead of 7 3-10ths, in ctirrency.— Subscribers will deduct the Interest in currency up to July 15th, at the time when they sub:4cribe. • • The delivery of the notes of this third serie4 of the Seven-Thirties will corn menee on the Ist of 'June, and will be made promptly and continuously after that. date. The slight change made in the condition■ of this THIRD SERIES affects only the matter of interest. The payment in gold, if made, will be equivalent to the curren cy 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 re duce and equalize prices that purchases made with six per cent. in gold would be fully equal to those made with the seven and three-tenths per cent, in currency.— This is The Only Loan in the market Now ofnred by the Government, and its superior advantages make it the GREAT POPULAR LOAN of the People. Less than 230,000,000 of the Loan author ized by the last Congress are now on the market. This amount at tho rate at which it is being absorbed, will undoubtedly command a premium as has uniformly been the case on closing the subscriptions to other Loans. It now seems probable that no consider hie amount beyond the present series will be offered to the public. In order that citizens of every town and section of the country may be forded fa cilities for taking the loan, the National Bunks, State Banks, and Private Bankers tl , :oughout 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 responsible for the delivery of the notes for which they receive orders.
