the Provost Marshal General, at Washington,
received here last evening, which states that

SANFORD continues to attract hundreds of
visitors to the Opera House, which is contin

there can,,,truly be styled "Ethiopian gun

of fare. To-night Miss Lizzie Lagrange hikes
a benefit. Sanford appears.
Ix Towx.—Ex-Gov. Morgan, of New York,
and Gov. Morrill, of Maine, were in the city

others have been carrying on reorniting to
such an extent as will leave the number to be

A SOLDLEOeS 0113MONOF TEE SALUTE FOR
licCrarmix's Nownwriox. —While the Copper
heads were firing a national salute in honor
at the nomination of McClellan for tht Pres
idency, a soldier, who happened to be`-pass
ing along the board walk, at the time, asked a
bystander the object of the salute. When
told, the soldier quaintly replied that Meelel=
lan, ever since the war began, was responsi
ble, either directly or indirectly, for the wast
ing of powder ! Sensible, soldier—and oh,
how gallant soldiers do love "Little Mac."
. .
Tns Smoot. TAX AND TEE SOLDTEMS.—One
of our city tax collectors communicated to us
yesterday, during a casual conversation, the
gratifying fact that seven out of every ten of
the soldiers who left this city, made it their
business to pay their school tax before march
ing hence. Many of those thus paying in
deed called the collector, who gives us the
gratifying intelligence, to the ranks, and then
cheerfully paid their taxes. This is alike hon
orable to the soldier and the great system of
education which they thus cheerfully sup
port.
E XTENSION OF THE CA.FITOL.—As S001:1 as the
Board of Commissioners can be convened,the
contract for extending the Capitol will be let,
and work immediately commenced. It is al
most confidently predioted that the plan of Mr.
Simon, an eminent architect of thietity i will be
adopted, and that he will be charged with the
erection of the extension. Tho other plans
presented, proposed extending the building
ever the open spaces respectively, between,
the Capitol and the Executive department, on
the one side, and the Land Office on the other.
Under no circumstance can the Oonstnission
ere be induced to accept such a pian. The
Plan of Mr. Simon, as is well knowii, proposes
to extend the building from the rear, with
a front on State street, which will'add- to . the
appearance of the whole building, and afford
convenience ample for all the usee needed.--
It is hoped that work will be coragatteed•Ort
this magnificent improvement so eel°. have
it far advanoed before the inclemency of the
winter season interferes with, the progress •of
the work.

A marmsx lady of this city, whose age is not
a proper subject for discussion, has been
warning young men that' the stamp tax on

cess attends the efforts of the Mrsnage.r to
please our eitizeng. We world advise ,the
public to go to Bannvart's and-secure the 4 ir
seats during the day.
Tint Cotsen, sae xas Botany Queszton.—
This morning Judge Pearson decided that,
according to the terms of the city charter,
the Mayor and Council have no authority to
levy a tax upon our ditizens, or to borrow
money for bounty purposes, (as provided in
the recent ordinance passed,) as the charter
expressly limits the amount that may be bor
rowed to $200,000, and the greater portion
of that sum has 'already been obtained by
loan. This puts an end to the payment 'of
bounties as far as the Council is concerned.
It is, however, conceded that the election
boards of the various wards have authority,
by the State law, to levy taxes for bounty pur
poses.
A SHARP Dopas.—The copperheads, in or
der to defeat the Union candidate for Council..
in the Sixth ward, resorted to a dodge which
promised to result well, but signally failed.
When the Union men nominated David Mum
ma, Esq., the copperheads avowed their de
termination to present no candidate, and to
support Mr. M., inasmuch as Dr. Egle had
been supported by both partied last spring.
Yet, in the face of this avowal, 'they met in
secret conclave, on Monday night, and nomi
nated John Stimler for Council. Secresy was
however, observed, and it wa s not until near
noon of yesterday that the Union men dis
covered that the opposition were not voting
for Mr. Mumma. Every co pperhead was at
the polls and voted. Yet, notwithstanding
this piece of treachery, threy were defeated;
and Mr. Mumma was triumphantly elected.
As an act 'of meatmees this dodge of the Cops.
is unparalleled, unless it he by the "Sons of
Liberty" and other organized bands of the
enemies of. the Administration.

Wcman who should be in the South, te Eh lur
Friends.—The Hun" tingdon American gives an
amusing amount of the troubles of a female
Secesh, on her way from Bedford Springs,
who stopped at one of the Huntingdon hotels
to wait for the Eastward train. While at the
hotel she used very treasonable language and
behaved in a manner that indicated her pro
clivities. The girls employed about the house
were incensed at her, and retaliated by treat
ing her to a concert of Union songs—among
others singing in full chorus, "We'll hang
Jeff. Davis on a sour apple tree," tto. This
caused Secesh to rave, whereupon the girls
struck up "Rally round the Flag." Secesh
was rampant and declared that she would
rather die than walk under that flag. To test
her, the girls procured a large U. S. Flag,
locked the door which opened on the street,
and when the train was coming, hung the
flag over the main entrance by which Secesh
was compelled to make her exit. She soon
made her appearance, saw the flag, and passed
out under it, to the infinite merriment of the
girls, who waved it over her head as she de
parted, accompanying the action with • the
chorus "Down with the traitor and up with
the stars!"

[COMMUNICATED.]
Our Next Congressman.
ME. EDITOR :—Our County Convention for
the nomination of a Union ticket, to be sup
ported at the October election, will assemble
in this city on Tuesday next. A Congress
man is to be elected in this District. Who
shall we nominate? This is a quesion im
portant to the people. A number of candi
dates are named in the several counties com
posing the district. Dauphin oounty proposes
three or four, among whom is Wm. d. Romig
sox, of Dauphin. Mr. ROBINSON was the
nominee of Dauphin county in 1862. Had he
received the nomination of the district by the
Conferees, he would most probably have been
elected, and we should have been saved the
mortification of a disastrous defeat, and the
district would not have been misrepresented,
as it is, by an unscrupulous and venomous
Copperhead.
I Mr. Robinson is a gentleman of fair abili
ties, honest as steel, and can be relied on as
faithful and true to the cause of the Union.
His nomination would be very popular, and
bis election certain.
Mr. Patterson iss defeated in 1862, mainly
on account of MS small vote polled. The
election was peornitted to go by default. This
will not be the case this fall. A fall vote will
be polled, and a full vote in this district is a
certain victory. Ia this hour of her peril, the
country needs the services of true men. Let
us take care that'we are not again shamefully
misrepresented in the 14th Congressional
District of Pennsylvania. DAUPHIN.

IT is A NAT/ONAZ SAVDTC/S Bann, offering a
higher rate than any other, and best security.
Any savings bank which pays its depositors
in U. S. Notes,Considers that it is paying
in the best circu lating 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 al
ways be sold for within a fraction of their
face and accumulated interest, and are the
best security with banks as collaterals for dis
counts.
Convertible into a 6 per Cent. 640 Geld 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 less than nine per what. premium, and be
fore the war the premium on six per cent.
S. stocks was over twenty per cent. It will
be seen that the actual profit on this loan, at
the present market rate, is not less than ten
per cent. per annum.
its Exemption from State or Municipal
JOHN LOSER
But aside from all the advantages we have
enumerated, a special act of Congress exempts
ali bonds and Treasury notes from /peal taxation.
On the average, this exemption is worth about
two per cent. per annum, according to the
rate of taxation in various parts of the country.
It is believed that no securities offer so
great inducements to lenders as those issued
by the Government. In all other forms of
indebtedness, the faith or ability of private
parties, or stock companies, or separate com - -
mnnities, only, is pledged for, payment, while
the whole property of the country is held to
secure the discharge of all the obligations of
the United States.
While the Government offers the most
liberal terms for its loans, it believes that the
very strongest appeal will be to the loyalty
and patriotism of the people
SUBSCRIPTIONS WILL BB RECEIVED by the
Treasurer of the United States, at Washing
