upon our distracted conntry; We
'hope that all the good news we have

and the preludes to further Drafts
and slaughters. Teats of thousands
of good and brave 'hearts are again
sleeping the long &cep, or mutilated

good be derived from it; and if it
should be the last clash of arms in
mortal strife, we shall shout with the

DEMOCRACY WILL _FINALLY RULE.
The "loyal" Lebanon Courier is
scolding the N. Y. Post, Philadelphia

that the Democratic party, "by cast

These "intimations" sorely displease
the "Total" Courier, which 'insists
that--

Ma. EDITOR.—The late Bounty law
passed by our Legislature empowers
the School Directors or other au
thorities of every district to levy for
Bounty purposes a tax of two per
cent on real property per annum. It
therefore follows that as we have
districts that have for the late draft
levied a tax of two and - some more
than that percentage on real proper.
ty, so that in the event there be an.
other draft, which is not improbable,
within the present year itkere can be
no tax assessed on real estate for that
purpose, and consequently those,
drafted will have -to go or furnish
substitutes themselves. It is, impor
tant, I conceive, that this informa-
tion should be made known through
the columns of the LEBANON AliirEß
vsEn so that the people of the - County
may regulate themselves accordingly
in case the unwelcome news-should
come sooner or later, that another
draft is ordered. Also please publish
the following from the Harrisburg
Patriot * Union, of Saturday.
THE NEW BOUNTY LAW.—AS it is
possible that the present draft may
not be the last,nothwithstandin.g the
military situation would seem 4o in
dicate a. speedy, termination of: the
war, it may not be amiss- to refer to
the provisions of the bounty law pass
ed. by the teat Legislature, in order
to ascertain distinctly what our citi
zens may or may not do to make the
pressare as light as possible. The
law empowers the school directors or
other authorities of any township,
ward, or borough, to pay not exceed
ing $4OO bounty to all enlisted men,
the tax to be levied as' directed
. by
the law of last year. in relation to
persons subject to draft., the present
law provides that, in addition to the
tax of $2O per capita ; aliens between
the ages of twenty and forty-five to
pay the same. Not more than twa
per cent. per annum can be collected
for bounty purposes on the valuation
of property. The law authorizes the
local authorities to pay a bounty of
not over $4OO to drafted men, or to
their families, in such sums and at
such times as they—the local authori
ties—may determine, leaving them
at liberty to exercise a wise discre
tion in the matter. The law is not
compulsory--the authorities may or
may not pay bounties—and if they
determine to pay they mayfix the
sum at $4O, or any other amount not
exceeding $4OO. As, under the a
mended conscription law, men must
be credited to the districts in which
they are enrolled; each district is at
liberty to act in the matter of boun
ty 'as it pleases, without any danger
of being interfered with by, higher
bounties - in other d istricts.- These
seem to be the main features Of the
act, and, bearing them in rnind,(our
ward, borough, and township authori
ties will have a clear chart by which
to steer in the future.

fore his mind. To those who are de
spondent of the ultimate - redemption

- prove a great relief. Mr. Buchanan
entertains no doulit ?f..*!ffi„final..,tri
-rimpli of the Dernoentet- and of the
-consequent salvation of our Country;;
and he gives such
,reasons fdr
faith, as will go far. to remove the
doubts of the - most desponding. ,For
our own-part we have never feared
for the ultimate triumph of truth
and liberty, • nor doubted the over•
throw and punishment of Lincoln
and the partizans i-n his despotism.—
But we know of many who do doubt
—a visit to Wheatland would go Tar
to fdassure thee). Mr. R3 d ehanan

of the latter part of his

coming summer. It will. 'thoroughly
