ITEMS. —The public schools opened ou Monday last, causing the usual bus tle among the children, who always seem to be as glad at the commence ment as at the close of the term. Many ot our citizens no doubt observed a curious looking "infernal machine," propelled by steam, lying at Murks' wharf last week, it was an apparatus for cleaning out the canal, and was up in thiti section we suppose fir that purpose The photographers of this place have agreed to advance the pri ces of pictures, and now caries can be obtained for 84.00 per dozen, and vig nettes two for 81 00. The Logan Foundry property has been purchased by Win. B. Hoffman for the purpose of converting it into a coal yard. The Glamorgan Iron Company put the Furnace at this place in operation on Friday last, under the superintendence of Mr. Geo. W. Enny, who by the way is one of those clever fellows upon whom his neighbors and friends do not hesitate to bestow the title of gentle man. The "degree of honor" was con ferred on Miss Eliie Nichols, who lighted the fire, thereby putting the ponderous machinery in motion, which event, like the firing of the first gun at the opening of this war, might prove the commencement of a "big thing." L. J. Elberty has been ap pointed assessor for the borough of Lewistown. IST PKNNA.

For nearly two years the Ist Pa. Cavalry has been under my command, and now at the end of its term of ser vice I can proudly say its record is without blemish. The excell nee of your regiment resulted from the prop er application of discipline by its offi cers. In the many engagements of this Division in which your Regiment has participated many officers and en listed men have fallen; they met death facing the foe, let them be properly remembered by those who survive. To you, Colonel, my thanks are due for the efficient manner in which you have always performed your duty as a Reg imental or Brigade commander. You can return to your home well satisfied that 3'ou have not failed in your duty, bearing with you the sincere friend ship of myself and all your compan ions in arms.

S. 7-30 Loan. jjuHE Secretary of the Treasury gives notice that will he received for Coupon Treasu ry Notes, payable three years from August 15th, 1864, with semi-annual interest at the rate of seven and three-tenths per cent, per annum—principal and in terest both to be paid in lawful money. These notes will be convertible at the option of the bolder at maturity, into six per cent, gold bearing bonds, payable not less than five nor more than twen ty v*ars from their date, as the government may elect. They will ho issued in denominations of SSO. SIOO. SSOO ■ ■ i- and SSOOO. and all subscriptions must be for fifty dollars or some multiple of fifty dollars. The notes will be transmitted to the owners free of transportation charge.-, us soon after the receipt of tbo original Certificates of Deposit as they can be pre pared. As the notes draw interest from August 15, persons making deposits subsequent to that date must pay the iuterest accrued from date of note to date of de posit. Parties depositing twenty-five thousand dollars and upwards for these notes at any one time, will be al lowed a commission of one quarter of one per cent., which will be paid by the Treasury Department upon the receipt of a bill for the amount, certified to by the officer with whom the deposit was made. No deduc tions for commissions must be made trom the de posits. SPECIAL ADVANTAGES (IF THIS LOAN. IT IS A NATIONAL SAVINGS BANK, ottering a higher rate of interest than any other, and the best security. Any savings bank which pays its depositors iu U. S. notes, considers that it is paying in the best circulating me dium in the country, and it cannot pay iu anything better, for its own assets are either in government securities or in notes or bonds payable in government paper. It is equally convenient as a temporary or perma nent investment. The notes can always be sold for within a fraction of their face and accumulated inter est, and are the best security with banks as collaterals for discounts. Convertible into a 6 per rent. 5-20 Bond. In addition to the vgry liberal interest on the notes for three years, this privilege of conversion is now worth about three per cent, per annum, for tin ur renl rate for 5-20 Bonds is not less than nine per cent, premium, and before the war the premium on six per cent. U. S. stocks was over twenty per cent. It will be seen that the actual profit on this loan, at the pres ent market rate, is not less than ten per cent, per an num. lis Exemption from State or Municipal Tax ation. But aside from all the advantages we have enumer ated, a special Act of Congress exempts all bonds and Treasury notes from local taj at,on. On the average, this exemption is worth about two per cent, per an num, according to the rate of taxation iu various parts of the country. It is believed that no securities offer so great in ducements to lenders as those issued by the govern ment In all other forms of indebtedness, the faith or ability of . rivate parties, or stock companies, or separate communities, only, is pledged for payment, while the whole property of the country is held to se cure the discharge of all the obligations of the United States. Wh'le the government offers the most liberal terms for its loans, it believes that the very strongest appeal will be to the loyalty and patriotism of the people. Duplicate certificates will be issued for all deposits. The party depositing must endorse upon the original certificate the denomination of the notes required, and hether they are to be issued in blank or paya ble to order. When so endorsed it must be left with the officer receiving the deposit, to be forwarded to the 1 reasury Department. SUBSCRIPTIONS WILL BE RECEIVED by the Treasurer of the United States, at Washington, the several Assist ant Treasurers and designated Depositories, and by the First National Bank of Philadelphia, Pa. Second National Bank of Philadelphia. Pa. Third National Bank of Philadelphia, Pa. First, Natioual Bank of Altoona, Pa.
