HORRIBLE SUFFERINO of ti LOIERS. -Four
hundred of the 115th, 117th and 118th Indi
ana six months volunteers vivre ordered to re
port at Indianapolis, their term of „ cr y : ,
having expired. They loft Tazewell and were
marched over the mountains through the cold,
some of them without shoes on their feet, and
with but little clothing. They wore compelled
to march day and night, with but a scanty
supply of food, and a number of them actually
died from starvation. In one party of one
hundred and two, twenty-four died before
reaching, Camp Nelson ; and after reaching
that place, fifty men of the same party fell
down from sheer exhaustion and died in a few
hours.
Out of the five hundred who left Tazewell,
but three hundred and fifty reached to this
place, the remaining one hundred and fifty
having died from exposure and the want of
food and proper care. One night two men
belonging to Company A of the 115th Indiana
had become so weak from starvation that they
fell by the wayside, and actually died crying
for bread. These facts were related to us by
both officers and privates belonging to the dif
ferent regiments named above, The men who
arrived here presented a most pitiful appear—
ance, being but scantily clothed, and having
been almost without food for several days.—
Louisville Democrat, Jan. 6.
PLAIN TALK.
The Newbaryport Herald, a Republican
paper, but independent enough to speak its
mind thus talks of the limas case :
" The ease of John P. Hale deserves more
attention than it attracts. To our minds it is
one of the most scandalous affairs in which
such a man could have been caught. Mr.
Hale has long had the reputation of close
communication with the lobbies, but never be•
fore has he acknowledged that he sold out his
influence as a Senator to obtain the liberation
from the common jail of a person charged
with having committed a crime against the
Government.
" It is useless to talk of his having been
counsel to defend the party in Court. It was
to keep him clear of, the Court that Mr. Hale
received three thousand dollars. No such
retainer is ever paid to legal counsel, and the
party incarcerated would not have paid it for
all the knowledge of law that John P. Hale
ever had. It was his political. and not his
legal influence, that was wanted, and that he
had. Hale obtained the money—the villain
goes clear. For such an act, twenty years
ago, a Sena-or would have been expelled
forthwith. Now we suppose that Mr. Hale
will omtinue to favor aroicrary arrests, the
suspension of the ii Leas corpus. and all such
measure-, and will then slip around by sumo
back door to liLeeate in private those whom
denounces in public."

CINCINNATI, January 14
Private advices from Chattanooga indicate the
concentration of large forces in front of Foster, in
East Tennessee, and Grant at Chattanooga. It is
believed that the campaign will open with an at
tempt to recover Knoxville, and that the bulk of
Lee's army will be transferred to that army, Lee
himself taking the general command of the western
armies. .
This being a correct supposition, it is not improba
ble that the rebel capital will be removed further
south, and its defence entrusted to a strong garrison,
while concentration for offensive operations takes
place in the West. All the signs indicate this as
the probable movement for the spring.
Gen. Grant left for Nashville, with a view, it is
said, to prepare for the great conflict in East Tenn
essee.

The steamer Columbia, from New Orleans, with

is the latest intelligence :
Now ORLEANS, Jan. 3-7 A. M.
Information has reached here, from three or four
directions, that all the rebel troops which have been
operating in Western Louisiana, on the banks of the
Mississippi, and, in fact, the whole force of the
enemy, are gathering in Central Texas, and uniting
to form one large army, to attack our new acquisi
tion, on the coast of Texas. They will number at
least 20,000 men. The most ample preparations
have been made to meet this force, as well as possi
ble, with a number of the troops in this department.
There will soon be news of great interest from
Texas.
The 19th army corps still remains at New Iberia.
Nearly every regiment has re-enlisted as veterans.
An agent of Connecticut, at New Iberia, is paying

It will be gratifying to the members of the Company,
to know that the losses for the year have been light,
and are as follows, viz : George N. Lefevre'a Barn and
conteyts on the 23d of February, 1861, $2580.00: Isaac
M. Conklin's Stable on the 10th of October, $150,00;
with a few smaller losses above stated, amounting in
the aggregate to $105,17, making the whole amount of
lose for the year, $2836.57. The Board after due con
sideration, postponed the assessment of a tax for the
present, and have borrowed money to,pay for the loss
es. The losses for the past year will not be chargable
to, or in any way effect such persons as may make ap
plication for insurances hereafter, these will only be
subject to the payment for losses which may occur
after the date of their policies. By reference to the
foregoing statement, it appears that the amount of in
surance on the let of January,lB64, is $6,936,646 32-100
being $1440,00 lees than it wan one year ago; this ap
parent decrease for the year Is in consequence of the
discovery of a large amount of insurance for the year
1881, becoming void by sale, death, removal, or other
wise; the policies for which had not been sent to the
office to be cancelled, and as there was no tax for that
year, could not be known until the tax for the year 1882
was collected, this last tax being assessed at the close
of the year 1862, watt for the most part collected dur
ing the year 1803. The current business of the year
shows a considerable leer use. The number of policies
issued for the year is 207; the es floated value of pro
perty insured In, this Company, is about $8,000.00, one
fourth of said property under the rules of the Company,
being at the owners risk.

because the Medical Faculty, as a general thing, have not

The Secretary of the Treasury has not yet given notice
of any intention to withdraw this popular Loan from Sale
at Par, and until ten days notice is given, the undersigned,
as General Subscription Agent," will continue to supply
the public.
whole amount of the Loan authorised is Five Hun
dred Millions of Dollars. Nearly Your Hundred !allots
have been already subscribed for and paid into the Treas
ury, mostly within the last seven months. The large de
mand from abroad, and the rapidly increasing home
demand for me as the basis for circulation by National
Banking Aooociations now organising in all parts of the
country, will, in a very short period, absorb the beans'.
Sales have lately ranged from ten to fifteen millions week
ly, frequently exceeding three millions daily, and as it is
well known that the Secretary of the Treasury has am
and unfailing resources in the Duties on Imports and Ds.
temal Revenues, and in the issue of the Interest bearing
Legal Tender Treasury Notes, it Is almost a certainty that
be will not find it necessary, fur a long time to oome,
to seek a market for any other long or permanent
THE INTEREST AND PRINCIPAL OF WHICH
PAYABLE IN•GOLD.
Prudence and calf interestmlust force the minds of those
contemplating the formation of National Banking Associ
ations, as well as the minds of all who have idle money on
their bands, to the prompt conclusion that they should
lqse no time in subscribing to this most popular Loan. It
eelll soon be beyond their reach, and advance to a band
some premium, as was the result with the "Seven Thirty"
Loan, when it was all sold and could to longer be sub
scribed for at par.
It is a 81x. per Cent. Loan, the Interest and Principal
payable in Coin, thus yielding over Nine per Cent. per an
num at the present rate of premium on coin.
The Government requires all duties on Imports to be paid
in Coin ; these duties have for • long time fast amounted
to over a Quarter of a Million of Dollars daily, a sum swir
ly three times greater than that required In the payment
of the interest on all the 6-20's and. other permanent
Loans. So that it Is hoped that the surplus Coin in the
Treasury, at no distant day, will enable the United States
to resume specie payments upon all liabilities.
The Loan is called 5-20 from the feat that whilst the
Bonds may ran for 20 years, yet the Government has a
right tb pay them off in Gold at par, at any time after
years.
The Interest is paid half-yearly, viz on the drat days
of November and May. •
Subscribers can have COupon Bonds, which are payable
to bearer, and are 150, $lOO $.500, and $1000; or Registered
Bonds of same denominations, and in addition, $5,000 and
$lO,OOO. For Banking purposes and for investment of
Trust-monies the Registered Bonds are preferable.
These 5 20's cannot be taxed by States, cities, towns or
countlee, and the Government tax on them is only one and
a half per cent , on the amount of income, whea the in
come of the holder exceeds Six Hundred dollars per annum.
ell other investments, such as income from
Railroad Stock and Bonds, etc., must pay from three to
five per cent. tax on the income.
Hanks and Bankers throughout the Country will con
tinue to dispose of the Bonds; and all orders by melt, or
otherwise, promptly attended to.
The inconvenience of a few days' delay in the delivery
of the Bonds is unavoidable, the & mend being so great;
but as Interest commenced from the day of subscription,
no loss le occasioned, and every effort is being_mads to
diminish the delay. JAY COOSA
