THE EXCITEMENT.—The city late been full of excitement for the last 'ten days, which seemed to culminate on Sunday last. The invasion of Maryland, and the appear ance of the Confederates on the borders of our own State, aroused the public mind to such a degree that it stiemed impossible to allay it. The anxiety was still further heightened by the appearance of a great many refugees on horseback and in wag ons from York, Adams and other border counties, who of course brought highly exaggerated reports from the vicinity of the raids—and evinced an evident disposition to go on further out of the reach of the ene my. The York County Bank officers came over the river on Sunday morning and brought all the assets of their institution along with them, so that they should at least have the Susquehanna between their valu ables and the quick-moving rebels.— Horses, contrabands, and other cattle were brought over in droves. The public mind was highly fevered and unnaturally active. In addition to which was the earnest call of the Governor and the busy roll of the drum, imperatively calling for recruits, all contrili uting to almost upseting the mentality of_. our city. Rumors were abundant, and the announcement of a raid in the vicinity of town would have been readily believed by a large proportion of our population. On Sunday afternoon intelligence reached here that Gen. Lew. Wallace had been de feated at Frederick City, and was retreating rapidly, pursued by the Confederates; that Baltimore was in imminent peril, and the "seat of Government" in dangerous prox imity to the booted cavaliers of the South.— Whereupon, the restless feeling of the pre vious days reached its acme, and began to display itself in violent demonstrations. There was a running to and fro of fair women and brave men. A meeting was called by the Mayor, at the Court House in the evening,' at the earnest solicitation of many prominent citizens. It Sims attended by an immense crowd, and all kinds of ways and means were proposed to " repel . the base intruders." Speeches were made by the Mayor, Messrs. Dickey, Landis, At lee, Champneys, Hager, Amwake and Cap tains Bear and O'Rourk. Energetic resoln lions were passed, On Monday the stores were closed by re quest of the Mayor, thereby affording all an opportunity fur drilling and perfecting ar rangements. Several recruiting offices were opened. The town was alive to the crisis all day, and on every corner could be seen knots of men and boys discussing the pre vailing topic of absorbing interest. Refu gees continued to come in, and recruiting progressed, but not with the alacrity desir able. Several business firms were begin ning to pack up, ready for a hegira at a mo ment's notice. In the afternoon about one hundred men went through the drill at We Locomotive Works, and in the evening an other, war meeting was held, which was :td dressed by Col. Fisher and others. Tuesday morning rumors acre shun dant. "The rebels are at Conowinen Bridge," and expected hourly in the city. They werealso reported to be movii,g Ov e r to the Pennsylvania Railroad to destroy the bridge at Coatesville. Another meeting. was called in the morning by several citi zens, and an earnest request for the citizens to volunteer for the defence of their hTunes was made. Towards noon the tears great mans were dispelled and a spirit of apathy prevailed. Recruiting was moiler lately active. Several persons reported to be spies were captured, but after a due ex amination were found t, be refugee,. from Washington county, Maryland, and were discharged. Crowds were iu waiting at the railroad for the Philadelphia papers; and the demsnd for the "..-1,g•;," with its "Sum mary of war news" was great, proving that the reports of the sensation '; Press " were not to be trusted. A good many contra bands came into town in wagons, and bear ing evidence that they had learned "to suf fer and be strong." On Wednesday morning reports-of the capture of Petersburg by Grant with 20,1Xn, prisoners, and of Washington by the Con federates. The town appears to have quiet ed down considerably at the time of writing, and business is once more going on. Sev eral companies of volunteers are reported full or nearly so. DEATH OF Du. CASSIDY.—Dr. PA.TRICIC PASSIDY; Surgeon of the Board of Enrol l:pent of this District, died at his residence, in South Queen street, on Tuesday evening last. Although always of a delicate nature, his last illness was of but short duration. NOT OIIT of SPIRITS.—Among the crowd of pfugees who poured into our town, dur ing the past week, we noticed a carriage load of gentlemen with two huge demijohns strapped on behind. They looked as if ex. proauy made to hold " that stuff that comes in barrels." That party did not seem to be et alkotit ej apirite. BOUNTY TO 100 DAM?. MErr.—ln pursu ance of a resolution passed by the War Meeting held in the Court Rouse on Sunday evening last, the committee of nine waited upon the County Commissioners on Mon day morning, and stated the action of said meeting; whereupon' the following pream ble and resolutions were 'timadmously adopted by the Commissioners : WHEREAS, His Excellency, Andrew G. Curtin, Governor of Pennsylvania, bY his Proclamation, dated July 10th, 1864, called upon the loyal citizens of tho State to form themselves into Companies and Regiments, to protect ourselves and our sister State of Maryland from another Rebel Raid, which now threaten them and us. And, whereas, at a Town Meeting held at the Court House, in the City of Lancaster, on last evening, a Committee of nine were appointed to wait and urge upon the County Commissioners, the propriety and necessity of offering a Bounty of Fifty Dollars to each and every citizen of said county who will enlist into the military service under said call, and to provide sudsistence for them; Therefore: Resolved, By the Commissioners of Lan caster County, that a bounty of Fifty Dollars is hereby offered to each and every one of her citizens who will enlist as a private or non-commissioned officer under said call, for a period of one hundred days; provided, that the individual has not received the same sum from any district in the county. Resolved, That the said .bounty of 5.50 be paid ut soon as the individual is mustered into the United States service, by a regular mustering officer. Resolved, That the number of men enlist ed under the call, and entitled to the bounty hereby offered, shall nor exceed One thous and. Re.solved, flit the sum Of i.. 4100 he allowed for the recruiting expenses of each of ten Companies, to be paid to the commissioned officers thereof, as soon as they shall be commissioned and the companies muster ed into the service of the United Suites. Resolved. That this Board will pay for the subsistence of said recruits, sworn into the service, nut exceeding one thousand men, under the said call of the Governor for the period of two days, at an expense not exceeding fifty cents per day; such subsis tence to be under the control and direction of Isaac Mishler, of the city of Lancaster, to whom recruiting officers shall apply for order, Jr;e , ul).-Astence, to whom all accomits for sub:istence shall be rendered Mr settle ment and approved previous to payment by this Board.

For the Intelligem'er MES!ins, EDITORS :—ln obedience to a call of our most worthy Chief Burgess, we had a war meeting here last evening. As all men were invited I went there of course, and must say 1 was much disappointed. It proved to be nothing more than a gathering of the blackest of Abolitionists, those es pecially "who don't fight," but are splendid hissers and blowers. After some prelimi naries, a fellow, in a white cravat, was brought in to address us, which, after an apolCky for his native modesty, he proceed ed to do. We were treated to a fanfaronade upon the American flag and all that, follow ed by a denunciation of Copperheads in the lowest style of av--just such a beastly pro duction as might be looked for ft urn a blow er of the Brownlow stripe. The Democrats were abused and cursed and the worthy horde of thieves and plunderers at the head of the nation lauded to the skies. I could not avid contrasting this rigmarole of folly and slander with the teachings of one who was truly a follower of the " meek and low ly Jesus," he who leaned upon his bosom. lie said "tide children, love one another." This fellow :ought the opposite doctrine, and seemed most pleased with himself when uttering the most bitter invective, the most beastly malevolence. Aud men who pre tend to Christian Faith, who with long faces make lengthy exhortations; sat smiling and deli }iced with all this! Has it come to this that the Devil has entered hno the multi tun is-- that the public has become so brutal ized, that non will crawl upon their boilies and eat dirt for the sake of money --the price of blood ? God save the Commonwealth!

ACCIDENT TO JUDGE FISHER.-011 &MlX day week the Hon. Robert J. Fisher, of York, met with a serious accident on the Northern Central railroad at York Haven. On the morning and at the place mentioned, the Harrisburg accomodation train WSJ de tained by the limning off of a freight train ahead, the cars belonging to which com pletely blocked up the road. There being no prospect of a speedy movement of the train, the passengers got off. During the operation of clearing the track of a portion of the wreck, it or the rope attached to it, struck Judge Fisher so violently as to pre cipitate him, hilladlong down a steep and rocky embankment, injuring him severely but not dangerously. He is now at his home in York and gradually improving. CONDENSED POLITICAL ITEMS, &e The Government may tax our matches, but we challenge the world to match our taxes. Two-dollar greenbacks, altered to fifties, are now being circulated extensively. Hon. John Covode receivedonlyMOvotes at the abolition primary election in West moreland county. His abolition opponent, Wm. M. Stewart, received 1415. " Honest John" is played out. A correspondent of the New York Jour iyonnerce calls for a movement to make General McClellan a candidate for the Presidency, without regard to party. "The new shoddy candidate for Vice President is professionally a tailor. Let him stick to hie trade and make a straight jacket for Lincoln." The Ohio StOesman says that 3,1x0 farms in that State are left without a man to attend to them. Sn much for this nigger war in Ohio. Gov. Cm - tin has pardoned the negro sol dier who was resiently convicted of shooting a white citizen at Camp William Penn.— Hurrah for the black "soldier's friend!" 'Negroes and white women are imprisoned in the same room in a station house in Memphis. So says one of the Nfemphis papers. Hard on Abraham—the second resolution of the Abolition (Baltimore) platform, which recommends economy and rigid responsi bility in the public expenditures." "Is GOD WE Tarsr."—Such is the mot to on the new two cent copper currency re cently issued by the Administration. It is a matter of gratification to learn, even through the baser metals, that the Admin istration can command " trust anywhere. Senator Hale said, some time ago, that the stealimo under the Lincoln adminitra lion were more than the entire legitimate expenses of the Government. Can anybody guess why these shoddies disgorged Senator Hale? Since the arrest of iles edit. ,r the New York 1.0. q has discovered that white American citizens have rights. It never before ac knowledged the fact. THE REAL SLAVERY PARTY. Slavery of speech, slavery of press, slavery of mind, slavery of olection ; hut absolute freedot 0 to break the Constitution, supprs opposi tion newspapers, and insult the people. The Legislature of this State, will re-a,"- semble on the 23d of August, for the pur pose of counting the vote on the proposed amendments to the Constitution, and pass ing such laws as may ho necessary to carry them into effect, It appears that Morgan has carried out the threat to shave the heads of prisoners taken in Kentucky. A lieutenant, captured at Mt. Sterling; was duly shaved, in retali ath n ihr the tonsorial operations upon Mor gan and his stafl. The New York Independent, a loading re pul ican paper, of a recent date, says: "We have reached a point when we are willing to greet the black man as a soldier. We must advance to that inevitable goal when we shall meet him as an officer, a general, a ruler,---when we shall be unmindful of e,.10r as we are 11. V, of language.' Andy Johnson, it is said, was a good tai lor, but there's very little that's manly about him. His party in nominating him seemed to act up,4l the motto "measures not men." "The Richmond 6'entinel claims that the Rebel government gathered thirty-eight thousand small arms on the battle-ground of the Wilderness." From the above it waild seem that Our Or/inane° Departnn-,t i, again supplying linth The Adminktrat ion and war pre,s is ba ginning to open their fir, upon Gen. Grant. For instance, the Buffalo Cu rie,, a War print, say,e, in spel•aking of thy• Pote•rsburg , laughter, "let us forve - ntly trust that the• e•x . periterice. of the- army in front of Peelers lifirez rosy not now, nor ' , veer, be repeated.'. /ion, Fremont's organ, pub in New York, uses the following lan- age in a late number: "If Lincoln And: attempt as It is quite probable, tn def"at opposition to him by violowe and tine,resistance to such proceedings ran hardly I,e avoided. In order to rid them ,lees of a tyrant, the people may be driven to strike at the foundation of government, and in the st public ,redit Van hardly Fail to cutler." The Baltimore Su.n says that Francis , son of the author of the . Star spangled Banner,'• W:l4 recently arrested for allegol " disloyalty." Sr. We go. Patriots and suns of patriots are imprisoned and exiled, a hilst traitors, eorruptionistis, bullies and blackguards are ohivated to place - arid power. A good notion—the forming of Dein oaratie clubs. This is being done extensively in other parts of the State. Drama rats must organize. A fact. that speaks volumes for the inilo eility of the Navy Department has just come to light. No less than ten monitors building at _New - York and Boston, are so 1,, r 211 AY designed that they s% ill not float, and are being taken to have cost an immense stun, [hat might have been tlun - g into the sea. TILE NATIONAL DEBT Ir. Chase reports the national debt in creased within a hundred days by a little more than two hundred and fifty millions, or two and a half millions daily. This daily increase is now much greater, having itself been steadily growing from the begin ning of the war. It was ;i million and a quarter ayear ago, two millions six months ago, and is now not less than three millions per day. This is partly unavoidable. Prices of labor and supplies always rise in war. The field of military operations grows wider; our armies and fleets are made larger, and the interest of the debt itslf, and the cost of collecting taxes, are always growing. But these are not the chief causes of this inerea,e in the rate of incur ring debt. The chief causes aro two, both of which might be avoided by a sound ,ystem ref finance: 1. The Administration wilfully and un necessarily repudiated the national faith, and suspended payment at the first symp tom of difficulty. This was followed hy an endless expansion of irredeemable currency, and its now accelerating decline. It has now fallen much more than half of all the way it could possibly fall, and the Gorern naeat ~t least threeprice..9 for crll it buys. Y. And, chieth , an epidemic disease rages through the land, which will be known in history as the utline-holder's mania. It is a resistless passion for scattering vast stalls money. Congress aryl the Administra tion toe literally drunk with extravagantte. Should a minstrel Homer sing in after times the traditions of this age, he will tell of our national Olympus as a pandemonium of spendthrift gods, their ruined universe. On this point, no .sober man whn knows Washington to-day will call tiny language ton strong. Least of all the Secretary of the Treasury himself, who has long, in public :old private, complained loudly of the re lentless predigality of the other Depart- Who now de clares that without their speedy conversion to t.:ont tray, and rapid !Military success, all possible means for sustaining the Treas ury must fall. --V.

ANDREW JACKSON'S HOME IN SECES SION' HANDS.-A Tennessee correspond ent of the Cincinnati Gazette says : I visited the Hermitage' to-day in company with Capt. Armstrong Burgon Grating, and a squad of colored troops. Everything about the place looks lonesome, and bears the marks of neglect and decay. But the saddest fact is this, that the old hero's home is inhabited by secessionists. I saw Washington's chair the General's fine portrait, by Healy, and his grave, but I have no heart to speak of them while avowed secession ists dwallAn the house. A thick shadow has faller' on the Hermitage, and the whole neigoborhood seems' to be wider a curse." • TBS nisiscat MIRE*. A 310mstrons Record of Gram Licentious. nem—Horrible Imixtoraltttes...-Teatt• moray of the 31hotreaaes of Government Otileera.—Extracts from CoL Baker's Report. We give below extracts from the docu ments appended to the official report of Provost-'Marshal Baker, to the Secretary of the Treasury (Mr. Chass), upon the print ing of the public money in Washington. It is necessary to add that considerable portions of these sworn statements are omitted as being too grossly indecent for publication : L STAT3fENT OF MISS ELLA JACKSON My name is Ella Jackson ; I am original ly from Baltimore, Maryland; am eighteen years of age; I went to work in the 'l'reas ury Department on the sth of November, 1842; I procured my situation through the Hon. Mr. Kellogg, I. C. from Michigan; I have worked in various rooms In the de partment; am at present in the numbering room, where I have been about six months; I know Mr. S. M. Clark, superintendent of Currency Bureau ; I also know Mr. G. A. Henderson. Some time last fall, I think in September, I had a conversation with S. M. Clark and Mr. Henderson hi relation to them (Clark and Henderson) procuring two suits of men's or boys' clothes—one snit for myself and the other for a girl named Jen nie Hermon, who was working in the Cur rency Bureau. Clark and Henderson were to furnish the male suits, and Jenny Ger mon and myself were to put them on and accompany them (Clark and Henderson) to the Canterbury, a place of amusement in this city, where females are not allowed, owing to the nature of the exhibitions or plays usually in vogue at that place of amusement. On the evening agreed upon between Mr. Clark, Henderson, Miss Ger mon and myself to attend the Canterbury, as stated above, Mr. Henderson sent me a note, written in pencil, in which he stated, as near as I can recollect, that the suits could not he obtained that night, but would be all ready about Monday noon, that "C" could not go - that evening to the Canter bury, but would join us during the eve ning and go to supper; that the carriage should stop at our door at 7 o'clock, and we, Jenny Germon and myself, should come down alone and get into the carriage. This letter was signed, I think, " H." Mr. Hen derson did call at 7 o'clock, 89 arranged; we went down, got in and drove to George town, back to the capital, and stopped at the corner of Ist street and the Avenue; got out and walked to the Bidder restaurant, where we found Mr. Clark in waiting. We all had supper, which occupied nearly two hours. Mr. ark, Henderson, Jennie Ger mon, and myself then went direct to the Central Hotel, corner of 6th street and the avenue. Mr. Clark and Henderson went in and registered names on the hotel regis ter. Ido not know what names were regis tered. Jennie Germon and Mr. Clark oc cupied a front room, I think the 4th. floor. Mr. Henderson and myself occupied the next room adjoining. We all remained until about 3 o'clock, when Mr. Henderson got up and stated that he was going home. Soon aftef Mr: Henderson left, Mr. Clark got up and came into my room and proposed to occupy the same bed with me for a short • time, which I refused, when he returned to Miss Germon's room. Mr. Clark, Miss Germon and myself guL up between 8 and 9 in the morning, and all went to the Buhler Restaurant, where we all got break fast. Came down stairs. Mr. "C. - left us at the door and went away, and we went home. Miss Germon Was then employed in the press division in Mr. Clark's Bureau. Miss Germon was not discharged by Mr. Clark, but left of her own accord, as she was about to be married. I have frequent ly worked at the Department late at night; have also worked on Sunday, when Mr. Clark asked me to do so. Clark has very often asked the two Miss Duvalls and my self to drink ale in his Private office ; this has usually been done atter 11 or 12 o'clock at night. 'I don't think I ever drank more than two glasses at a time in Mr. Clark's room; don't think I was ever drunk in the Department. In the conversation I had with Mr. Clark and Henderson about going to the Canterbury in male attire, both Mr. Clark and Henderson informed me that they had seen Mr. Simm, the proprietor, and made an arrangement for a private box. I was confident I could carry out my part or 11w m prograilln9, Itr making this stareime a I desire .to say that I have not done so under any threat, intimidation or promise of any kind or nature whatsoever, but knowing I have done wrong, and have acted very impru dently both with Mr. Clark and Henderson, I desire to give a truthful and open state ment of my intrigues and improprietit,s with the g•ritleznen alluded to.

I am an actress by profession; my resi dence is at 276 Pennsylvania avenue; I first became acquainted with Miss Jackson I think on the 12th of September last, when I took rooms at No. 276 Pennsylvania ave nue as stated above. On the 20th of Sep tember last, Miss Jackson came to my room, and in the course of a conversation, she Miss Jackson) informed me that she and a girl named Jennie Germon had made an arrangement with Mr. S. M. Clark and G. A. Henderson to dress in male attire and accompany them (Clark and Henderson) to the Canterbury. Miss Jackson asked me to fix her hair so that she would look like a boy. 4 Shortly afterward, Miss Jack son informed me that they went to the Buhler restaurant, met Mr. Clark, had sup per, and then all went to the Central Hotel and took rooms; that Miss Germon slept with Clark; that Henderson got up about 3 o'clock in the morning and went home. Clark then came into Miss Jackson's room and wanted to stay with her (Miss Jackson) but she refused; that they all (Mr. Clark, Miss Jackson, and Miss Germon) got up at about 9 o'clock ittthe morning, went to the Buhler Restaurant, got breakfast, and then Mr. Clark went away, and Miss Jackson and Miss Germon went home. Some time I think in December last, and while I occu pied a room adjoining Miss Jackson's and Jennie Germon' a rooms, one morning, about 2 o'clock, I heard a great noise in their (Misses Jackson's and Germon's) rooms. On the following morning I asked Miss Jackson why there was so much noise in her room; she replied that Clark and Henderson came home with her and Miss German about 2 o'clock, and that they had all (meaninglSiissGermon, Clark, Henderson and herself) had a good time at the office (meaning Clark's private office) in the Treasury Department ; that they had all been drinking ale and were all drunk, and that Clark and Henderson, while in her (Miss Jackson's) room, had a dispute , • * [Here the testimony is such that we refuse to sully our page+, with it.] Miss Jackson frequently informed the that she and other - girls working in the Currency Bureau have frequently_ drank ale in Mr. cherk's private office. Daring the math of December last, Miss Jackson seldom came homebefore 2 or 3 o'clock in the morn ing; she stated to me that during these times she did not work later than le or 11 o'clock • that the balance of the time to 2 or S o'clock in the morning, she spent in Mr. Clark's private office. She has often come home very drank. ' She told me that Clark keptale fn his private office and treated her and the other girls. r have often seen in Miss Jackson's possession obscene books. pictfires and prints, which she, Miss Jack, son, infOrmed me were given her by Clark. She had also frequently informed me that whenever new girls applied for situations in the Currency Bureau, Clark would come to her and ask her to find out all about them; that she would make the inquiries, and if she (Miss Jackson reported that they (the girls) could be improperly used by blark, they were employed. I have made the above statement freely, without threat, intimidation or promise of reward, that I considered it my duty as an honorable and loyal woman to expose a system of the grossest immorality and im propriety practiced by Mr. Clark upon the female employees under his charge.

In accordance with your instructions, I exhibited these affidavits to Mr. Clark, mann , to him that I did so by your directiOn and in order that he might have an opportunity to make suell explanation or reply as he should deem proper.

I have further, in obedience to your order, called before me most of the persons whose affidavits are herewith trans mitted, and mule such other inquiries as it has been in my power to make touching the matter stated in the affidavits, and the re sult is, an ENTIRE CONVICTION that Ilie most material of those statements are Tact:: particularly those contained in the affidavits of Ella Jackson, Jennie Gernion, and Laura Duvall.

EDWARD J 0 RDA N, Solicitor of the Treasury. Hon. S. P. CHASE, Sec'y of the Treasury The Slave Market Outdone---A White Man Selling his own Sons. Sumner and his followers may prate as loudly as they please about "the barbarism of slavery," and Mrs. Stowe may rack im agination to create a monster like the brutal Legre, but we had an exhibition in this town during the examination,of those re cently conscripted, which, for inhuman and brutal barbarism9 , we defy any slave mart in the world to match. A father, who had already sold one minor son as a substitute to the human shamble, where he fell a vic tim, appeared in our town on last Monday, dragging at his heels two half-grown, ill shaped boys. They were all the sons he had, and lie had contracted to sell them both as substitutes. They had been bargained for by "loyal" men. The smaller one, al most a mere child, was prospectively the property of a loud-mouthed and pestilent Abolitionist--a huge beit.st of a man, who stood six feet two in his st.'t..kings ,ti el weighed over 200 pounds. ['his intense' " loyal and " patriotic " tidlow, when his son, a sturdy, well grown young man, en listed, followed him to (Anintbersburg, and brought him }tack home on the plea that he was a minor, and enlisted without ilk tle h er's consent. Yet he is always fall of war, and eager for fighting Si long as it is at the pence of the blood of some one else than himself or his own family. Being drafted, however, and wishing to lessen the proba bility of such a misfortune Itefallim lciw - again speedity,and impelled :0 time to save a Lathe money, he had hargaiii ed with a brutal father to pay a less sing, than three , hundroa dollars ibr the body, the bones, the blood, nay, more; the fife o f a ehild. We defy the- whole :south to fur nish an instance of such a disgusting "dick er" in human flesh, or, from aiming all the professional slave traders who have dis graced its soil, such a pair of monsters as these. 'there was no veil of pretended loy ally Shill - dated patriiaisin to conceal the naked hideousness of this transaction. Tb,• fat her was actuated solely I,y a sordid de sire fir gain: the purchaser was nioN ed by the sileakilig Wilitf'-livered cowardice that thrliaile his riski t his ~W ll worthless can-as in a war for the prosecution of which he howls daily, and b . ) the mean selfishness his ll:ain't• which prompted him to make a cheap bid when bartering for a human vic tim. A plot had Nall made up by the par ties to this disgusting transaction by which they hoped to deceive the Board. The boys were made to lie hs to their ages, and repre sented themselves as older than they really Sr ere, 5o immature and youthful, however, Was the appearance of tin- little wretches, that the Board refused to believe the state ments made to them, even though the father himself I.Pif as to their ages in -.nler that he might he enabled to f•ffelll sal, of his off- spring, They were both rejoete,l fir this reason,, its entirely too oung fir the secs ice., The huntan I rote, who had ex pected to save himself in this way, a wrow- fully and reluctantly paid over Ins money to save his cowardly carcass 1.,r a time, and the wretched father, after reeling about our streets for a day or so in drunkenness, went home, much disappointed, no doubt, ill be.- ing balked in the sale of his sons. Them is no coloring about this story, no fictitious glossing. It is true, just as we tell it, and known to be so to the very letter by-tot ny who will read this statement. We tu-ed make no comment. We have seen negr..es sold on the block to the highest bidder, but that only involved a change of service.-- Here was a white man, with son whom he had sold dead already, endeavoring to sell two more bays to what wits almost cer tain death, lie found loyal Abolitionists ready and eager to become the purchasers of cheap substitutes. Let us hear no more about the barbarism of slavery, when the barbarism of this war can exhibit such a revolting spectacle in the light of heaven on the free soil of Pennsylyania.--Fuiton D,m ocrat. S — Tht , Round Table of this week walks savagely into itc religious contemporary, the radical /74 , 7, ,, ,ei0nt. The secular paper gives the following r ntr of the eontents of the religious paper: Whole number of ~ n 1 woos is Columns of advertisements Editorial religious articles nom• Columns of war, politics, and finance 11 Columns of Mr. Beeeher's sermon. Columns of market reports Columns of religious news Number of religious articles But, adds the Round Table: This is not all. We took up this copy of the Independent expecting to rind its mass of shameless and revolting advertisements somewhat abated. But the vilest of the silo advertisements, which we know secu lar papers to haVe refused over and over again, defile its pages. Here the young woman can learn how to ward off the trou bles of misconduct, and the young man how to counteract the effects of dissipation. And this almost side by side with Mr. Beeelier's sermons ! On one page a poem entitled " The Sword of Christ," and near by the most infamous cards of wicked poison makers ! Is there no wrong here? (MI a man serve two masters? For the dog-days this may be pronounced lively. The same paper hints that the Con gregationalists are casting about for another organ ; , but we doubt this. The Indepen dent, though wrong on almost every public question, is vigorously edited, and those features which the Round Table condemns are, no doubt, the very ones which give it its audience. The States to Elect the Next President. Congress has decided that none of the States which have been formally declared in insurrection shall vote for President till re-admitted into the Union. The States thus e \eluded from participating in the ap proaching Pre:identiai conte , t are as fol lows : Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, klahama, Mniwsseo, I pi Louisiana, Florida, Our next President and Vice-President are therefore to be chosen by the following .Slates: Electors: ' States: Electors: Maine 701 do ' , l New Ilatri pshi re ... _ 5I Indiana 13 Massachusetts 12Illlinois 16 Rhode Island 4 Michigan 8 Connecticut. 6 Wisconsin ' S Vermont 5 Minnesota 4 New York . 33 lowa. 9 New Jersey.. 71Kansas 3 Pennsylvania. 25lKentucky 11 Delaware 31Missouri 11 Maryland -7 1 California.. 5 West Virginia ........ 510regon 3 Total, 24 States; Electors 241.

MANIFESTO OF THE CONFEDERATE. CONGRESS. The following manifesto, recently issued by the Confederate Congress will be read with interest. Some Republican papers. characterize it as another overture for peace. The Boston Traveller remarks that it "is a document much less arrogant and defiant than anythin:,- , which has - yet come from that quarter, and though some may think it is dictated by mere policy, yet it must be remembered that if it is even so, they have never stooped to policy before. It is mani festly an overture for peace on any terms, except those of unconditional surrender and submission, which last can hardly be ex pected of any people or armies that have evinced so much valor and made so many sacrifices in war." If our own rulers had any desire to bring this terrible war to a close, the tone of this document, as well as pre vious efforts of the Confederate authorities to open negotiations for peace, shows, that there are no insuperable difficulties in the way of the accomplishment of the result: JOINT RESOLUTION DECLARING THE DISPO SITION OP PRINCIPLES AND PURPOSES OF THE CONFEDERATE STATES IN RELATION TO THE EXISTTNO WAR WITH THE: UNITED STATES. Whereas, It is due to the great cause of humanity and ci vilizat and especially to the heroic sacrifices of thajz gallant arms* in the field, that no means nonsistent with a proper self-respect and the t ,, Dprovecl usa ges of nations should be omit l / 4 ,d by the Confederate States to enlighten tk, e public opinion of the world to the true character of the struggle in which they are eng, ge d , and the dispositions, principles and Pot.- poses by which they are actuated. There lore, • Resolved, By the Congress of the Confed erate States of America, That the following manifesto be issued in their name, and by their authority, and that the President be requested to cause copies thereof to he trans mitted to our Commissioners abroad, to the end that the same may he laid before for eign GOVertillleliLti: Manifesto of the Congress of the Confeder ate States of America Relative to the Ex isting War with the United States: The Congress of the Confederate States of America, acknowledging their responsibil tv to the opinion of the civilized world, to the great law of Christian philanthropy, and to the Supreme Euler of the Universe, for the part they have been compelled to bear in the sad spectacle of war and carnage which this continent has for the last three years exhibited to the eyes of afflicted hu manity, deem the present a fitting occasion to declare the principles, the. entiments and the purposes by which they have been, and are still, actuated. They have ever deeply deplored the ne cessity which constrained them to take up , arms in defence of their rights, and of the , free institutions derived from their am•es i tors • and there is nothing they 1114.1 r• ar dently desire than peace, whenever their enemy, by ceasing from the unhallowed war waged upon them, shall perntit thorn to enjoy in peace the sheltering, protection of those hereditary rights and those cher ished-institutions. The series of successes with which it has pleased Almighty God, in so signal a manner, to bless our 11.1111`, on :11.- most every point of our invaded border since the opening of the present campaign, enables us to profess this design of peace in the interest of civilization and humanity, without danger of having our motives mis interpreted, of the declaration being ascrib ed to any unmanly sentiment, or any mis trust of our ability fully to maintain our cause. The repeated and disastrous checks, foreshadowing ultimate discomfiture, which their gigantic army, erected against the capital of the Confederacy, has already met with, are but a continuation of the same providential successes for its.

All we ask is a like illlllluuity for ourselves, and to he left to ourselves in the undisturb ed enjoyment of those inalienable rights of "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness," which our common ancestors declared to be the equal heritage of all the parties to the social contract. Let them forbear aggressions against u.s and the war is at an end. If there be ques tions which require adjustment by negoti ations, we have ever been willing, and are still willing to enter into communication with our adversaries in a spit-it of pew,, of equality and of manly frankness. Strong in the persuasion of the justness of our cause, in the manly devittiott of our citizen soldiers, and of the whole body .if our peo ple, and above all in the gracious protection or I leaven, we are not afraid to avow a sin cere desire tier peace on terms consistent with our honor and the permanent security of our rights, and an earnest aspiration to see the world once more restored to the beneficent pursuits of industry and of mutual intercourse and exchanges, so essen tial to its well-being, and which have been so gravely interrupted by the persistenc e of this unnatural war in America. But if our adversaries, or those whom they have placed in power, deaf to the voice of reason and justice, steeled to the dictates of prudence and humanity, by a presump tuous and delusive confidence in their own numbers, or those of their black and for eign mercenaries, shall determine upon an indefinite prolongation of the contest, upon them be the responsibility of a decision so ruinous to themselves and so injurious to the interest and repose of mankind. For ourselves, we have no fear of the re sult. The wildest picture ever drawn by a disordered imagination comes short of the extravagance which would dream of the conquest of Eight Millions of people, resolv ed with one mind, "to die freemen rather than live slaves," and forewarned by the savage and exterminating spirit in which this war has been waged upon them, and by the mad avowals of the supporters of the worse than Egyptian bondage that awaits them in the event of their subjuga tion. With those declarations of our dispo sitions, our principles and our purposes, we commit our cause to the enlightened judg ment of the world, to the sober reflection of our adversaries themselves, and to the solemn and righteous arbitrament of Heaven. looking, back over the history of Mr. Chase's administration of the Treasury, we can accord unqualified praise to most of its features. A more brilliant successful record it would be difficult to find in the history of modern times. The fabric of the strength and solidity and grandeur now presented by the great Republic rests upon the prosperity infused into our finances by Mr. Chase.—North American July 2d. The day on which Mr. Chase resigned gold touched 300—Government securities were down—men wandered about the streets in breathless anxiety at.the impendng crisis—and all the signs of the times indi cated irretrievable financial decay and ruin. This is what the North American realla " a brilliant and aaccessful recordl"L-Age. A CALL TO ARMS. EXECUrtyE MAssIGN, HARRISBURG, Sunday, July 10,1884.

You are not re sponding freely. The enemies of our Government are active in deterring you,. efforts have been made to dissaude you from the belief that any considerable rebel force is in your vicinity, and many of our most loyal and patriotic citizens have been thus deceived. Similar efforts were made Last year, at the moment when Lee's army was actually on your borders. Despatches have been this morning, re ceived, establishing the fact that General Wallace, with 10,0011 men, was yesterday compelled to fall back from Frederick. lie is believed to be in retreat towards; Balti more. The communication between this point and Baltimore Was cut this morning by the rebels below Cockeysville. The authorities of the tnited States at Washington are so impressed with the ne cessity- of immediate efforts, that they this morning by telegraph authorised men to he mustered in by companies, which they &it Yesterday peremptorily refused. It is my - duty to state to you the tact, that your ,•oun try requires your immediate services, and the safety of your own soil, and of our go,KI neighbors in Maryland, may elepen.f in your promptness. Recollect That the mode of enlisting men is at the discretion of the Government, and it is the duty of all to obey its requisition. It would be disgraccMl to you to waste time in objections to matters of form mat detail, or profess that you would go if call ed in some different way.
