VOL. 8.-NO. 13.
FINANCIAL.
s. 7.30 LOAN.
The georetary of the Treasury gives notice that sub
scriptions will be received for Coupon Treasury Notes,
Payable three years from August 13th, 1964, with semi
annual interest at the rate of eleven and three- tenths per
'sent. nor annum—principal and interest both to be paid
in lawful money.
These notes will be conyertible at the option ofthe
bolder at maturity into SIX per cent. gold bearing
honds, payable not lees than five nor more than twenty
years from their date, as the Osiernisent may elect.
Their will be leaned in denominatioatrof Ism, Z➢SOO,
*LOON end $45.000, and all subscriptions must be for
fifty dollars or some multiple of fifty dollars. .
The notes will be immolated to the owners free of
transportation °largos as soon after the receipt of the
Original Certificates of Deposit as they can be prepared.
As the notes draw interest from -August lA, persons
making deposits subsequent to that date must pay the
interest accrued from date of note to date of deposit.
Parties depositing twenty five thousand dollars and
upwards for these notes at any one time will be allowed
commission of one•quarter of one percent., which
will be paid by the Treasury Department upon the re
ceipt of a bill for the amount, certified to by the cam
with win= the deposit was made. 'No deductions for
commissions must be made from the deposits.
SPECIAL ADVANTAGES OF THIS LOAN.
IT IS A NATIONAL SANINGS BANK, offering a
higher rate of interest than any other, and the best se
curity. Any savings bank which pays its depositors in
United States note's . , considers that it is paying in the,
best circulating medium of the country, and it cannot
pay in 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 permanent
investment. The notes can always be sold for within a
fraction of their face and accumulated interest, and are
the best security witk banks as coUaterals for dis
counts.
CONVERTIBLE INTO A SIX-PER-CENT. 5.20
GOLD BOND.
In addition to the very liberal Interest on the notes
for three years, this privilege 'of conversion 'is now
worth about three per cent. per annum, for the current
rate for 6-20 Bonds is not lees than nine. pei , oent. pre
mium, and before the war the premium on six-per -cent.
United States stooks was over twenty per cont. It will
be seen that the actual profit on this loan, at the present
market rate, to not leas than ten par cent. per annum.
ITS EXEMPTION FROM STATE OR MUNICIPAL
TAXATION,
But aside from all the advantages we have cattalo
merited, a special Act of Congress exempts alt bends
and Treasury notetticom peal taxation. On the ave
rage, this exemption Is worth about two per cent. per
annum, according to the rate of taxation in various
parte of the couniry„.
It le believed that rio demnities over so great induce
ments to lenders es those leaned by the Government., In
all other forme of indebtedness, the faith or ability of
private parties, or 'stock companies, or separate com
munities, only, is pledged for payment, while the
whole property of the country le held to secure the dis
charge of all the obilgations of the United States.
_ While the Government oilers the most liberal terms
for its loans, it belief& 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 deposiiing, must endorse upon the original
certificate the denomination of notes required, and licher.
ther they are, to be burned In blank or payable to order.
When Bo' endorsed it' mist be left with the Officer re
ceiving the deposit," to be forwarded to the Treasury
Department.

Ceres
Cernlina is a new article of food 140 diet; prepared by
novel processes, and obtained from vels eat that has been
deprived of its bran, or outer coatin,t •before being
ground.
Cerealina contains far more watrime;,f, weight for
weight, than any of the products of whei4 heretofore
known, and is most agreeable to the taste.
Cereelina contains what is nearly or 'Wok ether ab
sent from the various flours. farina, mairem,', corn
-starch, ko..now in the market,but what is of blek \lath"
ble importance not merely to the lover of luxury'. but
also to the lover of health—via: the invailiabte dt;Creg°
five element Cereaffna:
This consideration is of !dementia interest to the fa . sr
ble, the dyspeptic, the sedentary—especially to thost, l
upon whom)* reposed the responsibility of rearing the
Young—and to all who being ill wish to be well, or who
being well wish to retain their health.
Cerealina may be briefly characterized as the.purest
and c leanest product of wheat that can possibly be sup
plied, containing en increased proportion& the great
sources of nourishment and strength, gluten and the
phosphates, and above all, as the onlY . preparation
known wherein Nature's own digestive agent, the sol
vent indispensable to easy and healthy digestion in the
stomach, the newly discovered principle Ca-eating, is
incorporated and pieced on its speciality and - merite dis
tinctively before the public.
Cerealina may be prepared in the tome, manner as
farina, midterm, corn starch, rice Hour, arrow root,
dtc., with the important, economical, and healthful
difference that a smaller quantity of , Cerealinals re
quired, and the beneficial result is greatly superior.
its Cerealina contains In a more palatable form all
the wholesome ingredients that render bran bread use
ful, while it is. free from those particles that in bran
bread,,only Irritate the stomach, ills to be preferred,
either as rolls or cakes, whenever bran Bread is used
from choice or necessity.
Physicians everywhere recommenp oeroaliaa.;and
we could add the names of thontaide:who are now
using it, and bear testimony to its merits; but "the
proof of the pudding is in the eating:" and to the gratl
flea palates, and ameliorated digestive function/ of all
who use Cerealina, we leave the further confirmation
of these assertions.

[From tie Worthington Chronicle.]
The Richmond Sentinel, supposed to speak by an
thority for Jeff Davis, dedicates an editorial to the
subject of peace, and professes to be pleased with a
remark of this journal, that "throughout the en
tire North there is an undoubted sentiment in favor
of peace, unopposed except by some mean army con
tractors or sordid army followers." This is taken In.
the sense of being in favor of peace at any price,
and as indicative of a great change of sentiment.
But we need 'not say that each of these inferences is
false. The people of the loyal States, and Tla Chroni
de, as an organ of loyal sentiment, have always been
anxious for peace, but not such a peace as would
dissever or dishonor the country.
The Sentinel proceedb to say that " when both
shiest ,desire peace, peace cannot be far off.. Where
there is &will there is a way;" and it "respectfully
suggests, however, that it bra little out of the ordi
nary course of peace negotiations to' begin with
uffinuife. They, as their name implies, come last
and shut the door to further negotiations." The
Sentinel then proceeds to denounce President Lin
coln for "slamming the door rudely in our faces"—
in allusion to the indirect notice which he gave to 'a
rtunot that rebel-peace commissioners had arrived
on the Northern border, empowered to open negotia
tions. The Richmond organ is greatly disturbed
by this cavalier conduet of the President: , It has
become the disciple of peace, and earnestly studies
the things which make for peace. - It says :
Let peace commissioners be appointed by either
Section, and invested with. plenary powers of ne
gotiation, meet on neutral territory, and discuss the
terms of peace. Let all subjects be open to- free
discussion and negotiation. Fe of the South con
sider indeendenee as the groat and, first object of
the war, SIMI that separation is essential to lade
pendence;"yet we shall be willing to listen to what
you have to say and propose on the other side. You
may offer us something that will secure our equal
rights within the Union ; you may propose to give
the elaveholding and free States equality of votes In
Congress and in the election of President; and,
partly to effect this, you may throw all New Eng
land into one State, or give her to England; or, if
England wont have her,let her secede.
Now, this would be a tempting bait. We don't
say it would satisfy us ; but the subject is worthy of
consideration. This war was brought about by New
England and New Englanders, and who knows but
that the balance of the States might live in peace
and harmony, if she were out of the way I But we
do not mean to anticipate. or presbribe the action of
the commissioners. Let them enter into the nego
tiation& untrammelled by ULTI At A.TA, other than that
any terms of peace they may agree on shall be sub
ject to be rejected or ratified by their respective Go
vernments. As to the slavery question we would
leave that to be settled last. The question of inde
pendence concerns us all. The subject of slavery
but part of us.
When all other subjects are disposed of, the North
will find itself embarrassed by the possession of
some half a million of Degrees, who will immedi
ately be murdered by mobs if carried North, whom
no nation or people, savage or civilised, win receive
as freemen in their midst, and whom the North can
afford to send off, if she could •find a ,spot on
earth willing to receive them. Under, these oircum.
stancesthe riegroea and the Northern commission
erssvou'ld pray their former masters to let bygones

EXECUTIVE MANSION

To whom if may concern: , . . .
Any proposition which embraces the restoration
of peace, the integrity of the whole Union, and the
abandonment of slavery; and whieh comes by and
with authority that clan control' the armies now at
war against the United States, will be received and
considered by the Executive Government of the
United States, and will be 'met by liberal terms on
r other substantial and collateral points ;• • and the
bearer or bearers thereof shall have /life conduct

Now, just suppose (or a moment that Clay,
Hol

missioners, the existence of whioh theY had con
trived to .ho94,p,,Tdr. Greeley--beirevls-trp-warof
giiirig.imlicAtance to their assumed character, what
worlid.genuine commissioners havo said in reply to•
thaPresident's despatohl They would have said:
"If you make it a condition of negotiation that we
must. begin by .90E13w:ding to the abandonment of.
slavery, yon. ask more than we axe authorized to
yield. Thht point may become a topic for discus
sion, but to yield it at the start would be to place
the Southern people at your meroy." In reply to.
this the President could have said with perfect con
sistency t "I have indicated what 1 should regard
as the most desirable terms of settlement, but I am
willing to hear what you have to offer." But the
bogus commissioners did nothing of the kind. They
were conscious of having no '-authority that can con
trol the armies now at war with the United States,"
and they flattered themselves that they had helped
their Copperhead friends to an excellent bit of politi
cal capital ; so they seized the opportunity, to break
off all further informal intercourse, and to issue a
flaming manifesto, declaring their earnest desire
for piace, and denouncing the President for shut
ting the doors to negotiation. A commissioner, pro
perly authorized, and having a sincere desire to
make peace upon terms which any honorable Go
vernment could listen to, would never have seized
such •an occasion for breaking off the preliminary
parley. But Clay and Holoombe were aware that
they had carried the imposture far enough, and
that they had no proposition to make, looking
to a restoration of the Union upon terms •
which would not be an insult to the Govern
ment, add to every honorable oltizen. This is the
real secret of their taking fire so incontinently at
the President's despatch, and refusing to see in it
anything less than an unalterable determination to
insist "upon the abandonment of slavery as a pre
liminary to negotiation. We need not say that no
such inference is fairly deducible from the language
of the . despatch, and we cannot doubt that the Pre
sident, if appealed to by a commission • having au
thority from the commander of the rebel forces,
would have yielded the point of ' making the
abandonment of, slavery a preliminary condition.
The curt and coldly-respectful response made by
Clay and Holcombe to the note of Major Hay of
July 20, in which he inquired if they had any further
communication to send to Washington, proves that
we have truly interpreted their real motives. In-
stead of asking tote heard, they literally jumped at
the opportunity of having their suit rejected, in the
expectation that the result of the abortive negotia
tlon would redound to the advantage of the North
ern peace party.
At Pawtucket, on Wednesday evening last, Mr.
Cillmore (Edmund Kirke) delivered a lecture, de
scribing his interview with Jeff Davis, during a late
visit to Riehmend, and giving the substance of their
Conversation on the terms of peace. From a report
of It in the Providence Press we make the following
extracts • • •
I went to Richmond with the Rev. Colonel
Jaquess, and went with the hope of making negotia
tions which might result in peace. If we should
succeed, we thought that the consciousness of having
served our country would pay our expenses. If we
failed, we might still serve the country by letting •
the people of the North know what was the reason
of our !allure ; for I went with prepositions, on the
basis of which I .might have maile an arriegement
for peace with Mr. Davis; and if we were unsuccess
ful, It would be useful. for the country - to know
what propositions were rejected. We went to
Richmond in •en ambulance, and were three hours
on' the way after we entered the rebel lines. We
entered Richmond at 10 o'clook, and planted W e
white flag in the very heart of the rebel capital. As
we stopped, Judge Quid, the rebel commissioner of
exchange, directed Colonel Jacquess to button up
bis overcoat, as it was dangerous to be seen with a
blue uniform in the streets of Richmond. We were
taken to a hotel, and shown up to " No. 60," a shabby
coons with some fine furniture in very bad order. We
were provided with supper, and directed how to
apply for an interview with the President. The next
morning we directed a note to Secretary•Benjatiiin,
asking an interview with the President, and were
invited to call upon him, when we medals') engage
ment to meet the President that evening, which was
Sunday.
On meeting our engagement, we were shown into
the State Department, where westa*Mr, Benjamin,
a small, plump, black-haired, black-eyed man, seated
in his usual place and at hisright a pale thin man.,
dressed in a suit darkish gray , with ,a mouth and
chin expressive of the greatest determination. 'We
told him simply that we came without official au-'
thorny, but knowing the opinions of our Government,
to see on what terms peace might be made.. Mr.
Davie replied, quietly, withdraw your armies from
our territory, and peace will %How of itself. We
told .hint that the Northern people would never
agree to any plan which did not inolude the esta
blie of the Union. -Mr. Davis said that we
never • could live in peace. The North had sowed
such a bitterness between the two sections that we
never could have peace in this generation. We
then urged upon him that it was his duty to use
every effort to
. put an end to this monstrous
bloodshed. He acknowledged this, and. declared
that none of the blood shed In this War could
he lay to his own charge. They, the Sbuth,
were not fighting for slavery; they were fight
ing for independence ; and independence or ex
terminaticn they would have. We then tried to
show him that the position of the rebel ankles was
such that it was better for them to give up the con- '
test while they could do it with honor ;:but he was
unwilling to admit that his armies were in sash a
desperate position. Re laid the blame of the Oar
barity'of this war entirely upon the North, utterly
ignoring the instances of rebel barbarity which we
brought to ids notice. I then had a considerable
, conversation with Mr. Davis,
In which I Indi
rectly offered him the terms which I had Veen
authorized to suggest; but as he-did not show
any diSpoeition to meet me, I did not state them ex
plionly. These terms will be given through the
newspapers in a short time. They were, In general,
entire abolition, a general amnesty, no conneoation,
the debts of the South to be ignored, the debts of
the General Government. to be borne by all the
States. Mr. Davis declared that such terms could
never beaccepted by the Souttern people, and that
rather than submit to them they would stake their
whole property and their national existence.

THE SITUATION BEFOP.E PBTSFISBUII6.
•
The Richmond Enquirer congratulates itself on
he I qutppy " position of affairs before Petersburg,
and goes so far as to assure its reiulers that the city
cannot be taken. 4, 1 t says :
No pcisltion of the enemy could be more agreea
ble, in a military sense, to our generals. Whether
it is because there is no ,water to the south of the
city, or whether it is necessary to keep the army In
a petty status, the better to secure the protection of
Wieting ton or not, we cannot confidently tell, but it
is quite certain that the enemy's line of battle before
Petersburg' la from necessity or' other extremely
short. ' Short' la the word for it, for although the
entire Federal lines extend Renee to Beep Bottom,
that part whichßes in -front of Petersburg, instead
of being the main body in appearance, as it is infect,
is mere like , a bobtail of the bushy kind. The Fede
ral Linea commence on the Appomattox, just about a
mile below the city, upon a bald; which is the loca
tion of Battery No.l, commanding a partial view
of all the lower part of the city. The line extending
from Battery No. 1. crosses the eastern borders of
the-New Market farm; the old race course, forhiing
disputed ground, stretches off to the south, crossing
-Rime. farm, continues southwardly, gradually
bending in . to the -west, and • cum Mates in =-
mitt:ion at Dr. Gliarley's house, about three
miles from' - the Weldon Rallinad, and three
and- a half from the southeastern suburbs of the
city., The entire line, from the river to Dr. Gur
ley'?, scarcely exceed four and a half miles,.
which is probably the shortest our army has yet
been: confranted with: A slander picket line ex
tends still Anther south, ceasing somewhere in the
neighborhood of Stony. Cheek, twenty miles .from
the, city. ;Out of. this line the enemy have made no
raids of late, although' our cavalry have made
several desirous into it, bringing out prisoners,horses,
desirable information, and so forth. Strategically
considered, the enemy's position is a docideddy in
ferior one. • • • - •
"The moral effect Of the capture of towns and vil
lages Irak had its day. Petersbing, however, might
form an exception, but' of a' temporary oharaeter.
The, nemy would have found, had they entered the

WRIVOILE ATLANTA .
Sherrearesarray is now encamped, two miles from
Atlanta, in the • midit of primitive forests. Since
last adviees ithas somewhat , hi ft ed its 'position.
. . .
lettee•wtitten August 5 says:
isit . hes mOved•from the oast and nortltof Atlanta
to . theliest, the extreme left covering the city on
thniirthawbile the extreme right now is southwest
of the city,' running parallel with 'the Atlanta, and
Macon railroad, and nest enough, were the country
favorable, to command it with•artillery. An exten
sion of our right until it reaches the only line of
railroad left Atlanta, and that running south, seems
to be in progress. The enemy, however prolong
their lines in the same direction, and fortify them
selves in one or two parallels, just west of the rail
road. When' tha2g3d Clorps,,a night or two ago, was
shifted from the north of Atlanta to our extreme
right, the enemy made a corresponding movement,
leaving enough men in .the entrenchments north or
the olty,,to hold them, as was developed by the de
monstration, of the 4th Corps last evening. The
works of the enemy completely environ the city, and•
are very strong—too strong to be carried by as
sault. •
"Hood is making good use of his militia reserves.
Every man in Georgia, capable of bearing arms, is
arrayed against us, and, behind fortifications, they
are, of course, formidable. Foto or five weeks of
such campaigning as we have down here will turn
militia Into veterans, and render them as indi ff erent
to the ,viperish whisk of the bullet as those who
havebeen listening to it for, the last three years.
Hood's regular troops have undoubtedly suffered
very heavily. in the late battles, and his tootles are
to preserve them. Rebel veterans, of course, are
posted on the skirmish Vines, but the trenches are
held by militia, while the regular troops are dis
tributed in the rear as reserves from whence they
are speedily thrown forward in case of an assault. It
is presumed, by those who should know, that the
number of militia in Hood's army fully equals his
old rularly-emanized troops.
"We are within about two miles of the oily. The
road that runs in front of the tent 'in which I am
writing enters the main street of Atiaitte, just that
far'distent. Save on our extreme left, however, we
'can see nothing of Atlanta for the intervening forests
and broken country. Being so near one of the larg
eat cities in the South,•we might reasonably expect
to emerge , from the primitive forests, which have.
been our habitallona for so many weeks. But neither
villas nor gardens, country seats nor pleasant drives,
are encountered. Dirt roads, an occasional log
house, and unshorn old forests; are' alone what we
see two miles from the famous Gate Oity.
"The flight of shells is an all day and , all night ,
affair. Our shells scatter the shingles of Atlanta,
roof-trees and our round-shot bowl through their
dusty avenues. They answer with equal vigor, and,
having g.ood range, they keep our men closely bur
rowed when they open at a lively rate. They have
several siege guns in position, whose range is about,
three miles. The boys have learned their sound,
and so far from being alarmed , at their measured
discharge they seem only anxious to eapture,one of
the 'rebel camp•kettles,' as they term the heaviest
projectilerrweighlng jest sixty and a half pounds:"
WAIFS FROM REBELDON.
THIC DAMAOR OUR SRRLLS DO*TO PRTRESRURO
The Richmond papers say that our shelling of the
City of Petersbfirg is inflicting great damage upon
it. The position of our right enables us to have a
clear view of the whole place, so that shells can be
dropped Into it withtolerab le accuracy. One of them,
discussing the Subject, says: •
The occasional shelling of the city has lately only
accumulated bricks and other building materials In
the streets, without seriously hurting anybody..
Now and thezi a house Is fired, and the light afford
ing- a target for the - gunner's, shells are rained In
upon the fire to prevent its extinotion and to extend
the conflwWdon. The fire department has worked
nobly, rfodfrithstandlng the danger to which it is
exposed,.,trid In no instance has it failed to restrict
the fire to comparatively - ordinary limits.
-Some two - orthree hundred shells, - of different cali

merciful crashes sent breaking and rieging through
piles of crockery and rows of jars, whose precious
contents still swim or stick In. sweet ruin upon the
indented floors and caved-in shelves that mark the
scenes of the disaster.

The - Rebel Opinion of the •Burning- of
Chamberoburg.
The Richmond Sentinel sayagely,. defends, at.
length, the recent burning of Chambersburg, on the .
ground that forbearance with the-North has been
exhausted, and•lontsuffering mercy given place tot*
the duty of revenge. It says : •

and inhuman atrocities committed by the Federal

human. Misery and wretche d in a week than%
could the Pederals in a month in any section of like.
extent in the South. We magnanimously forbore to
do so, as we do not war upon women.
. On each of the former occasions we should, as-an
act of even-handed justice, have retaliated on Penn
sylvania the savage atrocities she has helped to in
dict upon the South. • Bad we done so it Is probable
the would have abstained in some -

perpetrating the murders arsons, rapes, and.robbe
ries that still mark with infamy the march of her
armies through the South. We no doubt hoped that
the example of our generous and ChriStien forbear-.
ante would not' be lost umm- them, and , that,
in future they would imitate our.. example,
and .co nduct the invasion of the South
more like civilized men and Christiana, and less like
demons and savages; but we hoped in vain. A
course of duty no longer to be neglected or delayed
will forever justify the burning of . Chambersbarg.
This is but the beginning: of the' end. • We know
that this burning will render you more cruel than
ever, that, you will try to lay waste the entire
South, to Confiscate our lands, to make your negro

The Guerilla War iH fillaseuri Ended.
The St. Joseph (Mo.) Heraid, of the 11th instant,
is of the opinion that the formidable guerilla war fa
North Missouri a month ago, by Thornton, Tarall
kill, and other scoundrels has suddenly come to an
end, through the fear of the great uprising of loyal
men. These loyalists came, in almost all in
stances,. armed, equipped, and ready to be sent in
by
of the guerillas, who, being fully posted
by their friends as to the Union strength, re
solved to disband or to escape as best they could.
Upon hearing of 'the force already on his track,.
and of those who were ready to engage in the
pursuit, Thornton became alarmed, and calling
his men around him frankly-told them that lt was
impossible for him to succeed in holding the Platte
country as he had expected to do, and, further, that
be saw no means of effecting an escape across the
river. In view of these facts he advised them all to
save themselves as best they could._ Many took
his advice, and, no doubt, are at present at their ,
old homes, attending 'to the gathering of their
crops, and ready to swear that they have been at
home all the time, peaceable and quiet MU.
ZEDS. , It is further stated by prisoners that about
one hundred and 'fifty of the more desperate of '
the clan took umbrage at Thornton's speech,
hooted at and denounced him as a coward, and then •
chose Thrailkill as. their leader. This man is a des
perado of the worst class. He is endowed with 0011.
siderable ability as a partisan leader, much more
we think than Thornton, who is a huge lubber, with
but little brains. 'Thrailkill, it will be recollected,
WS captured more than a year ago in the edge of
Atchison county, where he had recruited about fif
teen or twenty men for the rebel Service. He was
retained in our Jail for some weeks ; the seceshladios
of our city presented him with a suit of clothes, and
administered to his wants generally during his in
carceration. 'After a time he was sent to St. Louis,
and exchanged. With the squad now adhering to
his fortunes, we are confident that he has succeeded
in creasing the Missouri river above Lexington.
There are many things to confirm this belief which
we cannot now relate.
In Platte county there are no doubt many men
yet in the brush, but they are of the sympathizing
class, who flee and hide at any time when they hear
of the presence of Federal troops. Of open, regular
guerillas, these are hardly fifty in the county. The
people are now getting up att.organization, beaded
by Messrs. Allen, Brown, Beller, and others, which,
it is hoped, will preserve a permanent peace. In
Clay county we hear of a few straggling bush
whackers, but of no. force of any strength.. They
are evidently preparing to leave as soon as pos
sible. We do not hear of any in either Clinton,
Ray, or Caldwell. In the former and latter their
friends are not numerous, and they cannot be
harbored with safety. • In Ray the sympathisers
are cautions - fellows. While they are as bitter rebels
at heart as can be found this side of Jeff. Davis , do
minions, they are sharp enough to know that It Is to
their interest to keep still, and by so doing they have
managed to get along without being troubled to any
great extent. Again, we have it ' from undoubted
authority Mat many whoj allied the rebels while they
held poisession oU Platte City and other towns have
since been seen on the plains , between here and
Denver. Several have been arrested at Atchison
, during the past week, who were about starting out.
These are of the disbanded force, by their own con-
Miring the past ten days perhaps forty of Thorn
ton's ban,d have been captured bythe militia. Pro&
what we can learn from therp- are - are eieetain that
the ' 4 . big war " Is at an end. • We'slutthondoubtedly
hear of depredations and Mitidgell beilig committed.
'as long as the leaves remalat'on the trees, but the
operations will no longer be conducted on anything
like so grand a scale es in the past.

EiCITING SCENE . IN A KENAGIEntS.—ine Coun
cil Bluffs Bugle of August 4 says that on the day
before, while a menagerie was on exhibition in the
city, a violent storm . sprang up, which blew down
the pavilion, which imm'edlately took fire, and was
nearly all consumed. The accident took place in
the midst of the exhibition, and there were from one
to two thousand people in the pavilion. It Is
ppoosesible to describe the confusion which took place.
Men, women, and children were buried under
the canvas ;'but, forttinately„ the centre pole and
braces fell with one end upon the . cages, of the
wild beasts, so aa to allow a large_portion of the ,
audience' to escape. The canvas. Of the north side
was lilted up bodily and carried over the heads of
the audience' into the center of the ring, while the
top canvas filling.tipon the kerosene lamps, Immo •
diately took fire ;. and: at one time there was great
danger of many being consumed by the fast-spread
ing flames ; but fortunately all escaped, and not a
man, woman, or child was seriously hurt. Such
confusion was never before witnessed. Men calling
ford their, 'Wives, - `wives for their husbands,
mothers fqr their children, and children for
their mothers.--all. was oonfusion. Just at this
-time two; cage a which bad been. placed to

being open, oat leaped - a .huge lioness- Then arose,
'the cry lion out.". Then there was confusion
-worse, confounded, and a. stampede took place
.equalled only by thilitempede of the Congressmen
froin Bull Rua. The keeper of, the lion caught it
around the neck, 'another. man belonging to the
concern jumped into the cage and threw the leopard
(which,:theing in the same cage with the lion, was
alknit to escape;) down in a corner and held it while
the bystanders closed the cage. The lion was put
back into the cage and all was quiet.. "Nobody

There la probably no subject of a national charac
ter about which there should be so much concern as
the public debt. In truth, there to none now which
absorbs more of the attention and discussion by the
friends and enemies of the Government. It is right
that it should be so. It would be cause for regret if
thapeeple.were apathetic and indifferent as to a
matter so interwoven with their individual and ool
lective. prosperity. The only safeguard to great
public Interests is the intelligence and appreciation
of the community. Vigilance-In this partioular,es
In all others involving national rights, is the price
of liberty. ,No one can complain•that he is not fully
informed upon all matters relating to the finances
of the country. The statements of the public debt,
made weekly by authority, the readinesswith which
the Treasury Department replies to the un
numbered Inquiries of the -people in all parts
of the country, the frank and full explanations al
ways given by the agents of the • treasury, and the
depositories of the public monies in all the States,
the free' discussion of the • merits -and' deinerits of
every new financial measure in the newspapers of the
land, all these have; instead of discouraging the peo
ple united them in sympathy end support. The poli
ticians have been disarmed of a weapon they might
have used with effect, in the' fact that there is no
disposition. to conceal or, withhold anytluag, how
ever disagreeable or unpalatable. The extent of
the public !debt - Justifies the absorbing discussion
everywhere observable In regard to it. Itls not
necessary to warn those.who adhere faithfully to the.
Government against the false reasonings upon this
important matter of the enemies of the Administra
tion. The polltieal campaign which is about opening
will give rise to new sophistries and violent mis
statements, which it will be the duty of those loyally
disposed to combat and upturn. It will be said the
country is ruined in its finances; that the debt of
the nation can never be paid; the national cur.
rency must break down and be repudiated, and that
in this respect the time is hastening when our public
credit will be as low as that of France during the
reign of the assignats, or that of our own 'country,
at the time when. the ,Continental -currency be
came worthlea., To .doceive. any .portion of the,
intelligent people of the country, It must be proved
that the tide of prosperity has:rolled back froth' tis'
forever; that the inhabitants, instead of numbering•
thirty millidtts, are but three millions, as in the corn-,
mencement of our career ; that instead of industry,
thrift, wealth, Prosperity, and boundlees resources
being our characteristics, the nation is partionlarly,
distinguished by the barrenness of its land, the
poverty of its shill and labor, the indolence of its'
people, and the utter misery and degradation of US
Citizens, It would be idle to say to any intelligent.
American citizen that his country will ever become
so weakened, or that its public credit will stand be
low par among the nations of the earth. The least
fear should be our inability to meet our financial
engagements, for the resources and wealth of a
great and growing people are:pledged for their re
demption. It is the people's -debt ; they have oon
traeted it, and they will pay it off. 'Secretary Fes- .
senden recently stated that the public revenue
now reaches a million of dollars daily from taxes
alone. And these taxes are scarcely felt—an evi
dence that the so-called "burden of a public
debt Is not the crushing weight that breaks down a
young and energetic people. The immense recupe
rative power of this country will undoubtedly ena
ble it to work off a large national debt in a• much,
shorter time than any other in the world, and this
makes our ultimate financial future a problem less
difficult to solve than It otherwise would be.
With a population of eight and a half millions in
1818 we had .a national debt of one hundred and
twenty.aeven and a half Milliena,. and between that
year and 1885 the valuation of property averaged
about two hundred and fifty dollars per head. Yet
the entire debt was extinguished in the latter year,
sads large surplus remained in the Treasury. Our•
ability to pay a heavy debt is now far more than
double whet it was then in proportion to the popu
lation, for the value of property In the loyal States
has increased to an average, of six hundred and six
ty-aix dollars per head—allowing the population to
be twenty-one millions; and 'the value of property
fourteen hundred thousand Imillions. And thistle
entirely exclusive of the States in rebellion, end
without ealculating the annual increase of popula
tion and property valuation which both are still re
pidly undergoing.
