LANCASTER HORSE MARKET, MONDAY,
JUNE 12TH, 1805.—The trade still continues
dull, there being scarcely any arrivaLs
worthy of 11%e, and the sales are limited to
a small number.
Trout's.—There has been no arrivals or
sales during the week, except 25 head of
fine, young mules, by Daniel Cookes, of
York county, this morning.
Funk's.—The arrivals during the week
were 13 head bought up in the county. The

York city and 10 head were shipped to Phil
adelphia market, leaving 8 head on hand in
the stable.
thpeland & C line' s.—The arrivals were
24 head bought up in the cowaty. 15 head

market. 5 head remain on hand.
LC) AUII S. Co.'s.—\o arrivals during the
week. The shipments were 8 head to Bal
timore for Express Company at Richmond,
Virginia, and 15 head to Philadelphia mar
ket. There are none remaining in these
stables but livery horses.
Ifortsm STOLEN.—On Thursday night or
Friday morning last, a fine bay horse,
valued at $275, and belonging to a Mr
Kurtz, residing near Ephrata, this county,
was stolen from his stable by a man named
Miller. The horse was brought to this city,
and sold to a horse-dealer for $l5O. Officer
Baker was made acquainted with the facts,
who, after considerable trouble, succeeded
in gaining a clue to the whereabouts of the
animal, and on yesterday morning recover
ed Into. 'the thief had in his possession at
the same time another horse, attached to a
buggy, which is supposed to have also been
stolen. The buggy was sold at Mr. Samuel
B. Cox's carriage manufactory, in South
Duke street, for $2O, where it still remains.
The thief left the city with the horse, and
nothing has since been heard of hint.
Trnc BIT Da 80. RDI NG SCHOOL—That
veteran and well-known teacher, who has
been in the harness for upwards of fifty
years, Prof. John Beck, Principal of the
celebrated Cedar Hall Boarding School, is
about to retire. The school will pass into
the charge of Prof. Ferdinand K. Rickert
and Prof. liepp, teacher of German and the
higher branches. Better successors could
not have been selected.
Thousands of prominent citizens, says
the Reading ',Word, are now scattered over
this great country who can testify to the ex
cellence of the Litiz school :ind to the great
worth of its venerable Principal who is
about to retire. We
.110 not believe that a
single man lives in this country who has
had anything like the experience of Prof.
John Beck as a teacher, nor do we believe
the man lives, of his noble profession, who
can proudly point to so many living proofs
of the great perfection of his system of teach
ing, as he can.
It seems to us simply appropriate, that,
within as short a thne as practicable, a time
be appointed for a GRAND RE-UNION of the
old pupils of Prof. Beck, at the Litia
Springs, M bestow a deserved complimet to
their esteemed teacher, and to enjoy the
luxury of righting the school-boy battles
over again
NEW COI' NTERFEIT.—Messm Reed, Mc
6rann & Co., brokers of this etty, this
morning, received a telegram front their
Philadelphia correspondent, saying that an
excellent counterfeit of the new national
currency, of the denomination of five dol
lars, has just appeared, decei ing the banks
and best judges.
V A I.ITA 111. E I RON WORKS FOR SA
Read the advertisement of Mr: J. J. Keifer
in another column. The Iron Works he
oilers at private sale are of the most valua
ble description. They are situated in the
Shenandoah Valley, Virginia.
MASONIC. —Columbia Commandery, No.
13, of this city, left in the 11.15 traba west this
morning, for the purpose of attending the
11th annual conclave of the Grand Com
mandery of the Knights Templar of Penn
sylvania, which meets at Altoona this eve
ning. 'The Commandery were attired in the
inn dress of the Knights Templar, and pre
sented a fine appearance. They were ac
companied by the City Cornet Band, who
appeared for the first time in a new and
neat uniform. There was a large concourse
of " outside barbarians" at the depot to see
them off, and cheer them "on their wind
ing way."
DEATH FROM SUFFOCATION.—About two
weeks ago a young man, son of Mr. Fred.
Koch, residing at Mt. Hope, this county,
went into a strip of woods on the mountain
near Mt. Hope Furnace, for the purpose of
cutting wood to make charcoal. He was
accompanied by another young man, whose
name we were unable to ascertain. They
remained out all night, and took shelter in
a small hut erected there forsuch purposes.
Not appearing for their meals in the morn
ing, a search was made, when both were
found in a suffocating condition, with life
not wholly extinct. They were drawn out
into the air, but too late to save young
Koch, who died shortly after. His com
panion, however, has recovered.
NOTES OF THIRD SERIES OF 7-30 s Now
READY.—The demand fur the Second Series
of the 7-30 Notes was so great that the
Treasury Department was unable to print
them with sufficient rapidny to fill the
orders. It will be remembered that a hun
dred millhms wore subscribed and paid for
in a single week. The printing presses
have finally surmounted the difficulty, and
on Wednesday, Juno 7th, the deliveries of
the Third Series commenced, and will be
continued with the same promptness that
marked the supply of the notes of the first
and second series. It has been this inter
ruption of delivery at the time of subscrip
tion which has given an appearance of a
falling off in the popular taking of the loan,
the great body of small takers being un
willing to pay their money unless they re
ceive their notes right in hand, to carry
them home. It is expected that after this
week the daily subscriptions to the Seven-
Thirties will run up into millions, as they
will undoubtedly be stimulated by the
opening of the farmers' wool markets East
and West. It is not at all likely that the
Government will ever again offer so desira
ble a security as these notes, and only about
two hundred millions only remain to be
taken.
With the close of the war the national ex
penses will be vastly reduced, and investors
must look for a sharp reduction in the rate
of interest as soon as the present loans be
come due, and can be paid. oft'.. There is no
reason why the United States credit for
money should ever again fall below its
credit for courage. The same spirit that
preserved the geographical integrity of the
country will place its pecuniary integrity
on a par with that of the most favored
nations—and that will represent a rate of
interest under rather than over four per
cent.

A Goon WINE NEEDS NO PIIFF.--Calling
on a friend °fours of the American Legation,
the other day, he invited 'us to a glass of
wine. We complimented his taste in the
choice of so rich a port, but were somewhat
astonished when he assured us it was an
American vintage called Sambnrg port
wine. It was rich, juicy and high-flavored,
possessing none of the peculiarities which
distinguish the manufactured sugared wines
and cider champagnes. He told us the
the proprietor, Mr. A. Speer of New Jersey,
T.T. S. A., had , been awarded a gold cup by
the American Institute for the excellence
of his wine. This is a new phase in the pro
duce of America—a wine country—Dickens'
"All the Year Bound."
We quote the above with pride that we
do produce one wine in this country that
Europeans acknowledge superior to their
own production.

FASHION Gossir.—The New York Daily
News has a correspondent, who thus gossips
about the fashions for June :
June with her glowing roses, and clamber
ing vines, and odorous balmy breezes is
with us again; and away with all fabrics
heavier than muslins, bareges and laces.
How lovely are the beautiful organdies
this season !!! (I mark the exclamation
with three notes of admiration, and tell my
readers so lest the printers should leave
them out.) And how beautiful the dio
phonous, snowy muslins; and the pale
delicate hues of transparent gauze-like
bareges. To those who prefer them give
the rustling silks, and rich brocades, and
trailing velvets; for Inc the fairy-like
structures of tinted muslin, and ruffled
barege, and the folds on fold of gauzy lace
and tulle. The skirts ample, flowing,
floating and waving in exquisite hues.
The following are a few of the summer
dresses which have delighted my eyes since
last my pen dotted down the novelties in
fashion for this column. A dress of pale
rose-colored grenadine, trimmed with two
bands of silk a shade deeper than the dress.
The upper band is edged with pendant
trimming. The corsage is made round—a
style coining into favor again—and a wide
silk belt to match the bands on the skirt is
fastened in front with one of the new and
beautiful glass buckles just: brought in
fashion on coat sleeves.
A suitable bonnet for such a dress would
be one made of rose crape, trimmed with a
darker shade of ribbon, a light barege or
lace mantle, and rose colored gloves. An
other beautiful dress was of white organdie,
sprigged with a tinny blue blossom, and
having a flounce around the bottom set on
in box plaits, and headed with a cord of
blue silk, a French waist, with wide belt
and buckle, and voluminous sleeves gath
ered into a tight band at the wrist.
A beautiful walking suit may be thus
described: English berege, black, trimmed
with pale purple chemille fringe, and looped
up with embroidered bands of the same
over a skirt to match, finished off at the
bottom with a fluted flounce, trimmed and
set on with purple gimp. Short sacque of
the same, trimmed to match, and bonnet of
black lace, lavishly trimmed with purple
violets.
Almost all dresses are looped now, for
the parlor and drawing room as well as the
street; the short skirt, of course, is suitable
only for walking or neglige; and when the
dress is looped for indoors, the underskirt
must always correspond with the dress, and
should be worn as long as the usual dress
skirt, when not looped up. This is an ex
pensive style. of dress—but why speak of
extravagance in these days? We have got
past even thinking on that subject.
Trimmings for all articles of ladies' wear
continue as varied and as absolutely neces
sary as ever; one of the latest freaks in
troaneed in Paris, and which has already
shown symptoms of being in this city, is
the rage for steel and straw ornaments and
trimmings. A witty English writer de
scribes the extent to which this passion is
carried in France in the following manner:
"Jet ornaments, dear ladies, which have
been all the ragefor some tune past are fall
ing into disuse. The run is now upon steel.
The quantity of minute marine stores worn
by the fair ladies of France is astonishing.
There are steel bonnets, and the woman
with the Iron Mask may soon rival the
mysterious man of that ilk. Steel bracelets,
steel collars, steel decorated fans, reticules
and parasols, steel brooches, fringes and
iassels, and trimmings of steel, glitter on
the graceful forms of the gracefulest ladies
In Christendom.
" After steel conies straw. Os n'est pas
sue to prziOe nutis lit jotill,' est stir tout lc
mode. The ladies appear to have unplaited
their old straw bonnets and stuck them all
over their dresses. A mantle or jacket tes
selated with real straw in fantastic devices
is much patronized, and imitation straw for
fringe is becoming universal. A black lace
mantle thickly acme, or powdered with tiny
straw balls, very much r,semblingponones
de teem, .santees, has attracted considerable
attention."
Ahoutthe New York Meeting
The New York meeting, of last week,
to sustain the Administration, was got
ten up to dictate a negro suffrage and
construction policy to the President.—
The New York politicians are sly—
"devilish sly," as Major Bagstock has
it, but in this instance, their noses were
put out of joint. All the nice, prepared
speeches went for nothing. The crowd
wanted to see Grant, and hear Logan
and Blair, and their "hi, yi's" sent the
politicians to back seats. Even Daniel
S. Dickinson was silenced by calls for
Logan. The Herald says :
"The moment that Mr. Dickinson
commenced his speech there was a uni
versal demand for Grant. Scriptural
Dick ranted, scolded, quoted poetry,
tried to be comical and then mournful,
but it was of no use. He was compelled
to give way to General Grant, who was
received with indescribable enthusiasm.
Dickinson then endeavored to conclude
his speech, hut the people refused to
listen, and called for Logan. Mr. Dick
inson filially gave up in despair, made
way for the heroes of the war, and saved
the balance of his speech for some
other occasion. General Logan adopted
every possible device to avoid making a
speech, but a speech they would have.
When he commenced, instead of the
confusion which greeted the politicians,
he was listened to with marked atten
tion, and every word that he uttered
carefully weighed. Instead of follow
ing the theory marked out in the reso
lutions, which were expressly worded
to dictate a policy on reconstruction and
negro suffrage to President Johnson, he
boldly announced the President's real
policy on those points. He refuted the
theories of the radicals, and was ap
plauded to the encore at every step.
There were, it is true, one or two feeble
attempts on the part of the politicians
to hiss, but they were immediately
frowned down.
The reception which he received
proved conclusively that he spoke the
sentiments of the people. The resolu
tions they refused to listen to, while
they paid the closest attention to every
word that Gen. Logan uttered. His
speech, therefore, and not the resolutions
represents the sentiments of the meet
ing. In short, the politicians attempted
to glorify themselves and dictate
policya to President Johnson
under the ,hadow of our military heroes.
But it resulted in their being complete
ly foiled in the latter—totally eclipsed
and lost sight of in the enthusiasm for
the Generals. President Johnson's pol
icy was fully endorsed in spite of the
politicians, and their radical resolves
ignored. Never were schemes of poli
ticians so disastrously spoiled, or the
policy of a chief magistrate so emphati
cally approved. The managers of the
demonstration saw their mortifying de
feat and the dilemma in which they had
placed themselves, and were glad to ad
journ as soon as possible."
General Grant at Chicago.
CHICAGO, June 10, 1805
Lieutenant General Grant arrived to
day at half-past twelve o'clock. He
was met at the depot of the Michigan
Southern Railroad by the Mayor, the
Common Council, the Board of Trade,
a band of music, a military escort, Gen.
Hooker and staff and thousands of citi
zens. When the train arrived a salute
of fifteen guns was fired by a battery
from Camp Douglas.
His reception was the grandest ova
tion ever paid by Chicago to any living
man. He was escorted to the Sanitary
Fair building on horseback, and was
there met by thousands of people who
greeted him with deafening shouts.
The ladies showered boquets along his
path. General Hooker made the wel
coming speech and Gen. Grant bowed
his compliments, but said he made no
speeches, and called on ex-Governor
Yates to speak for him. Governor
Yates spoke briefly and eloquently.
General Sherman being on the stand
was called out and said' a few words.

For the .Intelligeneer
Paying off the National Debt,
Felix qui nail debeQ'
- .
M. EDITOR: If SIMMS Gordon EMI nett's
thimble-rig scheme to pay off the National
debt does not. succeed, and there are very,
few common-sense people who believe it
will, I will, in my humble sovereign ca
pacity—that is, if onr individual sovereignty
is not wholly absorbed in the all-absorbing
wisdom of the Abolition Administration—
point out a method bywhich it can be done
in a very short time, and inaConstitutiomd
manner. Firstly, then, have we a Consti-
tutional Government? If we have not, we
have still a Constitution—that which our
Revolutionary sires founded, and which
has been our guide and salvation. It is the
only rock of Safety upon which we can
stand. No matter how far party platforms
deviate from it, and the policy that
may be pursued for a while under the rule
of such platform. In the sequel the sober
second thought of the people will urge them
to fall back upon that sacred inheritance,
the old Constitution—the first best gift of
our noble ancient sires. And what does
that Constitution give us—guarantee us—
State Rights, State Sovereignty, as iudig
nous in individual sovereignty by virtue of
that most potent privilege, the right to vote
—a right that is the pride and influence of
all men who are competent to appreciate
and exercise that power. And who so weak,
so-base, as to barter that away for central
ism by an alteration of, or the formation of
a new Constitution? Well, then, under the
Constitution we have lived, and continue to
live and breathe, it is clearly to be de
monstrated by the force of legal logic
that thq, Abolition party had set up a
party creed foreign to the letter
and spirit of that Constitution given
to us by our Revolutionary sires, and made
that (feed the rule of action in violation of
the organic law of the nation, and on that
creed inaugurated the great civil war which
has shaken us from the centre of the cir
cumference, and created a debt beyond
ordinary computation, and this debt prin
cipally owned by the very men who hurled
us into this war. Now what is to be the
I I natural course of events upon setter reflec
tion over these things? Repudiation of an
unconstitutional debt? What is to prevent
the people from overturning a creed in
order to replace the fundamental law upon
which they were nurtured into existence,
and into prosperity, and into greatness? If
the States are to be continued in their con
stitutional sovereignties, this will and must
follow. The lex scripta of the States, and
of the Federal Union, gives the undoubted
right of shaking off a debt that was made
in violation of State rights and Federal
compact. The abstract idea of the Chicago
Abolition Convention of "no inure slave
territory, no more slavery," was the signal
of revolution, and the first principal assault
upon State rights ; and how that idea has
been nurtured into action is well known to
every one conversant with the nature of
American politics, and the proclivity of
that party which has for its root the puritan
ism of witch burners and Quaker hangers.
This departure front the true line of the
Federal Constitution and the crushing out
for a while only of State Constitutions, has
So far degenerated us that we have in the
detailed municipalites become the victims
as tax-payers to the most obscure kind of
men, llorse jockeys and grog-shop politi
cians have sprung up to be our law-givers
—so far as tad: is to be levied, and tor what?
why to fill the pockets of those who fur
nished this ex-cathedra party with war ma
terials. In order then toget rid of this in
cubus, the people may take it into their
heads that they have worked about long
enough for the vultures of shoddyism, and
on election day return such men only to the
Federal Congress who will obey the Con
stitution of our forefathers, and in accord
ance with that Constitution take no notice
of this unconstitutional debt ; and who
shall dare to gainsay Mei r decision :aid their
order as expressed at the ballot-box? And
thus the national debt would be obliterated
and nobody left to do it reverence, and no
body would he hurt much by it either!
That is the only constitutional way (odium"
this unconstitutional and unreasonable
debt. And it will not be the action of your
subjugated Democratic party alone—it will
be front the spontaneous action of that so
ber second thought of the people that is ever
sufficient to correct ()rows, and to deliver us
LOYAL JOE.
from evils
N. B. If the saying, ascribed to Andy
Johnson, of " Whenever you hear a fellow
pleading for the Constitution as it is, shoot
him down for a traitor," is yet the practical
action of the abolition party, you will keep
this letter dark till it passes over. L. J.
[We do not agree with our corres
pondent that the national debt ought to
be repudiated by the people. They per
mitted itto be contracted by their agents
—by the very men who refused to com
promise because they wanted " a little
blood-letting "—and they are bound to
pay it. They pledged "the last man
and the last dollar" for the prosecution
of a war which never would have oc
curred if the Abolitionists had not pre
determined that it should occur. The
"lastman "needed was hunted out from
his home by the provost marshal, and
the tax-collector's turn has comet° hunt
" the last dollar " from its hiding place.
It may take him some years to find it,
but he is bound to succeed.—En.]
Grand Reception and Review of the
Philadelphia Regiments.
An Enthusiastic Welcome by the People
The grand review and reception of the
returned Philadelphia volunteers came
off on Saturday afternoon. The special
Committee of City Councils having in
charge the affair,- worked energetically
during the week, and made every ar
rangement to render the display as cred
itable as possible. So far as the labors
of the Committee were concerned, the
affair was a grand success, but, unfortu
nately, the weather took an unfavorable
turn, and a soaking showerof rain com
menced falling from the time the line
moved until after the procession was
dismissed. In point of numbers the
display was not as large as was desired.
This was owing to the fact that the nut
jority of the returned regiments had
been mustered out of service, and the
men having been disbanded, could not
be brought together; it being only a
matter of choice; and not obligatory
upon them whether they should report
or not. The greatest drawback, how
ever, was the rain. Thousands of peo
ple had collected along the route, and
occupied places on the reviewing stands.
As soon as the shower commenced many
at once retired, but the majority seemed
determined to view it out, and were
consequently drenched to the skin. The
larger part of the lookers-on were ladies,
and not a few of them were elegantly
and fashionably attired. Their ward
robis, as a matter of course, sustained
serials damage. All things considered,
however, the display was one hundred
per cent. better than could have been
expected, and was as attractive and en
thusiastic as any demonstration wit
nessed in that city for some time. The
procession formed on Columbia avenue,
right resting On Eighteenth street, and
passed over the route published.
Hiring a Baby---A Queer Story about the
St. Albans Raid
An incident, not generally known,
concerning one of the St. Albans raiders,
has recently come to light. Immediate
ly after his acquittal, one of the raiders,
having little faith in the judge's deci
sion, determined to leave the country.
It being unsafe to travel, unless dis
guised, he bethought himself for awhile.
The difficulty was perplexing, and time
was scarce. If he stopped much longer,
he would likely be arrested, and there
were few disguises the lynx-eyed officers
of the law had not seen through. An
idea, however, struck him. He hired a
baby, paying $4OO as security for its safe
return. He then dressed himself as a
lady and started for Halifax with the
child, and for a great part of the way
had for an escort the very officer
detailed to catch him. He, however,
gives the detective a very good recom
mendation for gallantry, for during the
trip there was inthing either himself or
the child needed that the officer of the
law did not get for them. He arrived
safely in Halifax and took a passage for
Europe.

that during the morning a number of
the men visited the disreputable houses
and tippling houses (occupied by white

nately attacked the inmates, driving
them from their houses, breaking up
their furniture, and helping themselves
to liquor and edibles. The crowd num
bered from 150 to 200, and they com
menced to knock in the doors of houses
as they proceeded in theirriotous course),
some twenty or more having provided
themselves with axes, breaking up the

In Chinch-row, situated in the square
between First and Second streets and

showed particular animosity against the
colored people, and the sight of one of
them was the signal for a rush at him,
and when unfortunately any fell into
their hands they did not escape without
being robbed of what money they had,
and they were besides badly beaten in
almost every case. This crowd went
through Second and Third streets, tak
ing in their range the alleys near by,
beating all colored folks they met and
helping themselves to what they wish

cupied by people of color, who, at last,

when a number of women stepped in
and succeeded in persuading them to

The soldiers and the colored people

Death of Mrs. Slgourney.
irrum the Hartford Times, June 10.]
Mrs. Sigourney is dead
ten o'clock this morning, June 10, after
a lingering experience of failing health,
extending through all the last spring.
We believe there was no particular dis
ease, aside from the failing powers of
old age; she grew very thin and wasted
away. Her death, like her life and
character, was marked by a quiet peace,
and a clear Christian trust. Up to yes
terday afternoon she was conscious, and
at that time conversed with her family
and relatives; from that time to her
death, she seemed unconscious, and,
gradually sinking, passed gently and
peacefully away, to the rest of the good
and the just.
Lydia Huntley Sigourney was born
at Norwich, on the Ist of September,
1781, and was, consequently, in her
seventy-fourth year. During the quarter
of a century ending, perhaps, some
where about IS3O, her name was more
widely known, in either hemisphere,
than that of any other American
authoress. Laterly her poetry has given
place, in most libraries to that of a more
modern and varied school ; though it
will never be wholly superseded. She
was early addicted to verse-making
possessed a temperament which, while
t never marred her sound and solid
health, was nevertheless keenly
susceptible to the varied beau
ties and subtle influences of nature.—
She removed to this city in
1814, where she opened a select school
for young ladies, and where her poetical
talent and many lady-like and christian
graces soon attracted the notice and en
gaged the personal interest of the late
t (r
aniel Wadsworth, a gentleman whose
tistic and literary taste was fortunately
waled by his pecuniary means; and
he was the means of introducing her to
the public, in a volume of "Moral Pieces
in Prose and Verse." In 1819 Miss
Huntley became the second wife of Chas.
Sigourney, a well-known merchant of
this city; and since thattime she, while
engaged in the domestic caresof rearing
a family of children, found time to con
tribute largely to the serious literature
of the country, both in prose and verse.
Her published works, in all, number
nearly fifty volumes. Her prose is
marked by vigor, beauty, and good
sense, and, like her poetry, is full of
good moral precepts. Her poetry be
longs to a past school, in which we look
for such names as those of Dr. Belittle,
Hannah More, Mrs. Barbauld, Dr.
Watts, and perhaps we may add with
out injustice, the more eminent one of
Goldsmith. She has been called the
"Hemans of America," and in some
respects the designation was not amiss ;
her poetry in certain particulars was
not much unlike that of Mrs. Hemans,
though more substantial, and perhaps
less imaginative.
Some of her poems are by no means
destitute of imagination ,• but their main
characteristic is their religious and pre
ceptive spirit, blended with the evi
dences of the influence on the writer
of natural objects and beauties. At
home she was best known and loved
for her domestic virtues and her rare
neighborly spirit of friendly kindness.
Her heat and purse were ever open to
all good works of philanthropy and
charity ; and she had a host of hien&
and never au enemy. Many will miss
her kindly, genial presence, her active
sympathy, and her large-handed char
ities.

for fifty dollars per acre. On Friday
last, while engaged in digging a trench
or drain, he struck oil, to his great joy
and astonishment. He made known
his discovery to one of his neighbors,

BEAST FURNACE AND FORGE FOR
SALE.—The Blast Furnace and Forge,
known as
"TILE CAPON IRON WORKS,"
situated in Hardy county, Virginia, are offered
at private sale.
The furnace is a cold blast charcoal furnace,
with water power and about five thousand
acres of Timber Land.
The forge has three finery and one chafery
fires, and one run out fire ; is situated on Big
Capon River, an excellent water power; would
be
,plenty strong enough for a Rolling Mill.
The ore is a brown hemetite ; the principal
ore bank is about two miles from the furnace;
the vein averages at least five feet thick, sup
posed to be inexhaustible; the quality of the
iron is not surpassed by any in the State, with
a great home demand for bar iron ; for holler
plate the iron is first quality.
There is also a SAWMILL on the premises.
This is one of the - few Iron Works that
escaped destruction in the South during the
rebellion. For facilities for making the cheap
est and best quality of charcoal iron these
works cannot be surpassed by any in the
country. They will be sold at a bargain.—
These works are situated about thirty miles
southwest • from Winchester, near Wardens
vllle, on the Moorreld pike, •
• Persons wishing , to view the property can
call on George F. Rapp, (the fortner owner,)
living at Stigstiurg Shenandoah county, or on
John - C. ulenn, residing at the furnace.

THIRD SERIES $230,000,000
By authority of the Secretary of the Treas
ury, the undersigned, the General Subscrip
tion Agent for the sale of United States Securi
ties, offers to the public the third series of
Treasury Notes, bearing seven and three-tenths
per cent. interest per unim um, known as the
7- 3 0 LOAN
These notes are issued under date of July 15,
1865, and ara payable three years from that date
in currency, or are convertible at the option of
the holder Into
11. S. 6.20 SIX VER CENT
GOLD BEARING BONDS
These Bonds are now worth a handsome
premium and are exempt, as aro all the Gov-
ernment Bonds, from 81ale, Clamly, awl Muni-
cipal taxation, which adds from one to three per
cad. per annum to their 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 interost at 7.30 per cent. amounts to
One cent per day on a 850 note.
Two cents " 6 " , 100 "
Ten " " " " 500 "
20 " " " • 1000 "
81 " " " " 5000 "
Notes of all the denominations named will
be promptly furnished upon receipt of sub
scriptions.
The Notes of this Third Series are precisely
similar in form and privileges to the Seven-
Thirties already sold, except that the Govern
ment reserves to itself the option of paying
interest in gold coin at 6 per cent., Instead of
7 3-10ths In currency. Subscribers will deduct
the interest in currency up to JulY'lsth, at the
time when they subscribe.
The delivery of the notes of this third series
of the Seven-Thirties will commence on the let
of June, and will be made promptly and con
tinuously after that date.
The slight change made in the conditions of
this THIRD SERIES affects ouly the matter
of interest. The payment in gold, if made,
will be equivalent to the currency interest of
the higher rate.
The return to specie payments, In the events
of which only will the option to pay Interest in
Gold be availed of, would so reduce and equal
ize prices that purchases made with six per
cent, in gold would be fully equal to those
made with seven and three-tenths per cent
in currency. This is
THE ONLY LOAN IN .31A.RKE7
now offered by the Government, and Its su
parlor advantages make it the
GREAT POPULAR LOAN OF THE PEOPLE.
Less than 8230,000,000 of the Loan authorized
y Congress are now on the market.—
This amount, at the rate which it is being ab
sorbed, will all be subscribed for within
sixty days, when the notes will undoubtedly
command a premium, as has uniformly been
the case on Closing the subscription to other
Loans.
In order that of tizens of every town and sec
tion of the country may be afforded facilities
for taking the loan, the National Banks, State
Bank and Private Bankers throughout the
couneiy have generally agreed to receive sub
scriptions at, par. Subscribers will select their
own agents, in whom they have confidence, and
who only are to be respc,nsible for the delivery
of the notes for which they receive orders.
