Afr.EAT REPUTATION.—TharO has never been
rfiention given to the world which in the same
period of time so effectually won its way into uni
versal favor as the " Florente! , Sewing Machine,
sold in this city at MO Chestnut street. All who
examine it are delighted with the manner in which
it operates. - It makes no less than four different
stitches, and executes all kinds of family sewing
with neatness, durability, and despatch. livery

TEE 'VALUE OF To OF GOLD,—Tho value of
an ounce of gold is $l9 ' • of a pound avoirdupois,
;of a ton, isbos,ooo. Our national debt of two
thousand Millions Would weigh in pure gold 0,575,-
947 pounds, or 5,285 tons of solid gold. The same
s. value in silver weighs fifteen times as much - as in
gold, and our national debt would weigh 40,535 tons
In pure silver. The curious might find in those
facts material for a calculation as to how many
persons of the male persuasion could be kept ele
gantly and comfortably attired for a year, provided
they purchased their garments at the Brown Stone
Clothing hull of rinekhill Sz Wilson, Nos. 003 and

Pnov s N LIN u."—The Richmond Senn

that provisions In all the Southern cities are decli

to Dixie, but we think if -the third of that sum was
Charged here for the "staff," people themselves
'would go into a decline. But t thanks to a pea
Government, prices here are moderate, and nobody
declines buying a coat at Charles Stokes & Co.'s,

plea of poverty made by his brother, and the

Mr. JOHN MeCOY; who recently died at his resi
dence in North Fifth street, nt the ripe age of 72 years,
WILE connected with a race of public men who are fast dis

residence in the old distt let of SouthWark, and, whilst
conducting his private affairs with diligence and sae
cost, he at the same time manifested a 'Leal in the pros
perity of that old district. Called by hisfellow.citbtens
to participate in its municipal Government for several.
successive terms, he soon became conspicuous as ono of
the pioneers of that day in introducing needful reforms,
in the face of much opposition, and.with his colleagues,
was instrumental in the opcningand extension of streets
through the rural portiens of the district, in furnishing
it through tin length
and breadth with a plentiful sup
ply 'of wholesome water, thereby .4imulatiug private
enterprise, and laying the foundation of its present
magnificent extension. Ito was for many years an ac
tive member of several charitable and beueficia neck
ties, and ever ready to assist in doing good. Mr. Mr-
Coy 'a integrity as a public officer wits without reproach,
Those Who differed with Mtn in the conflict of partisan
strife paid homage to his honor and hit, honesty as a
Wall. Ile leaves two daughters to mourn the loss of a
good father. The elder is married to one of the wealthi
est and first settlers of San Francisco; the younger to
no ellterpri.ing merchant of our city. As out age began.
to invade him he withdrew from the cares of active His.
In the calm seclusion of his own fireside, in the bosom
of bis children, ns his - well-spent life drew towards its
close, sustained by an unfaltering faith, he mosl pa
tiently and hopefully addressed himself to preparation

liable to do military duty, because the greater the
number to be drawn -from, the less the chance of each
individual to be drawn.
The Board of Enrolment will be in session daily, to
strike from the list all persons not liable to military
duty, and to enroll all persons whose names may have
been omitted, all persons who shall have arrived at the

have procured from the United States Treasury' a private

than nor more than forty pears from their date, and
until their redemption FIVE PER CENT. INTEREST
WILL BE PAID IN COIN, on Bonds of not over one
hundred dollars annually, and on all other Bonds semi
annually. The Interest is payable on the first days of
March aud September in each year.
As these Bonds, by Act of Congress, are
EXEMPT PEOM MUNICIPAL OR STATE TAXATION,
their value is increased from one to three per cent. per
annum, according to the rate of tax levies in vat - lone
parts of the country.
At the present rate of premium ou gold they pay

iu currency, and are of equal convenience as a perma
nent or temporary investment,
It is believed that no securities offer so great induce-
Monts tb lenders as the various descriptions of U: S:
Bonds- In all other forms of indebtedness, the faith or
ability of private parties or Mock companies, or
eepn
ate communities, only is pledged for payment, while
for the debts of,gthe United States tho whole property of
the country is holden to secure the payment .of both
principal and interest in coin.
These Bonds inay.be subscribed fOr in sums from $OO
up to any magnitude, on the same terms, and are thus
Made equally available to the smallest lender and the
largest capitalist. They can be converted into money at
any moment, and the holder kill have the benefit of tho
Interest.
,The Funded Delft of the United States on which interest
payalde in gold, 6n. the 3d day of March, 1864, was
$768,905,000. The interest on this debt for the coming
fiscal year will be 1145,937,125, while the customs reve
nue in gold for the current fiscal year,ending Jane 30th,
1661, has been so far at the rate of over C 00,000,000 per
annum.
It will be seen that even the present gold revenues or
the Government are largely in excess of the Wants of
the Treasury for the payment of goldjuterest, while the
recent increase of the tariff' will doubtless raise the an
nual receipts from customs on the same amount of im
portations to tl-ki0,000,000 per annum. ,

THE CAPITAL NEW NOVEL
W 0 OD 33 IT N
ROM YERTNER JEFFREY,
AUTHOR OF "POEMS BY ROSA."
1 vol. 12mo. Cloth. Price $1.50.
The Hartford Courant says of it:
"It is refreshing to meet, In these days of sensational
Braddon-Wood school of fiction, a story possessing so
much real ability no Woodburn.' rhe scenes are, for
the most part, laid at the South; and the many flue pic
tures of its sunny landscapes, with which the book
abounds, relieve the intense interest of the story. Most
of the charaCters are drawn with great cleverness, and
a few in such clear outlines that we feel assured we have
met them in real life. The hero and heroine, Mr. Clif-
Mrd and Ethel Linton, are line characters. Both pos
sess the noblest qualities of mind and heart, and the
reader will be in love with them from the first. The vil
lain of the story, who bears the harsh-minding name of
Basil Thorn, is a real villain. For unmitigated scoun
drelism and remorseless - hatred it would be hard to
match kiln, his miserable death in the-woods is a re
lief to us. Rachel Thorn, a sort -of Becky Sharp, but
without Becky's triumphs, is a powerfully-drawn cha
racter. One of the hest personages in the book is the
narrator herself, Amy Percy—bright, shrewd, lionost7-
a girl who, disappointed iu her - first love, doesn't be
lieve in breaking her heart therefor. The plot is ably
managed, and the secret that hangs about Doctor Foster
and the maniac is Si) skillfully concealed until the de-
nouement, that it is impossible to guess it. There is
much acuteness displayed in many of the author's re
flections and observations. Her style is clear, compact,
and animated, and with au ocensipnra exuberance re
minding us of Miss Prescott. ' Woodburn' will add
largely to Mrs. Jeffrey's fame, and the difficAt field
Of fiction-writing she will take high rank."
The Louisville Jour - nal ens's:
" The authoress of this work is favorably known to
the public by her remarkable productions inverse. tier
poetry is distinguished by its deep feeling, fluency, nod
touching pathos, as well as its groat descriptive Power.
We always coveted for the public the efforts of Rosa's
pen in prose, stud predict for 'Woodburn,' filled, as it
is, with thrilling interest, a popularity equal to that
which welcomed her poetic productions.
"It exhibits admirably many of the wayward traits
of human nature; and anroofs the scenes of daily do
mestic and social life, digpliylng dthorough knowledge
of those ways of the heart Which so many desire to con
ceal, and which master-minds Alone have been able to
uncover."
