pretty oesrly fill up all the old Regiments,
tha' is if the people respond pretty general
ly a id too many of '.hem do not take advan

The drafted men in these places are paying
their Three Hundred Dollars. The draft
has passed off quietly in several of the
counties in this State. It has been made
in the city of Harrisbnrg. and hit some
eight Printers in the different offices. The

on me irain. n i not a nine siouuiar ir.ai
those leading Abolitionists in Washing'on
have become crazy on this subject of Abo
litionism as they have got their hands full
with the negro. The African is only in the
way and an expense to the Governmet.t
instead of usefully filling important posi
tions in the ranks of our army. Thousandi
of these blacks are being clothed and fed
by our Government, and not one cent do
they earn for themselves or any one else,
but remain in perfect idleness. It i true
at certain points some of them are employ
ed by the Government, but not profitably.
The same amount of labor would be much
better and quicker done by white men,
thus making it the cheapest to have nothing
to do with the Free American Citizen of
African descent. The Southern negro no?
his master if oa would get much wcrk
done by him. The kind of work they are
employed at in the South suits them, being
raised and trained to it, besides it seems as
natural for them to take to that particular
labor a- the young duck does to water. We
mean the cultivation of tobacco, cotton, sugar-cane,
and the manufacturing ot these
productions into merchantable good. In
the hot climate they are of service, at snch
work as we have mentioned. The African
has been terribly disorganized by the break
ing out of this rebellion-been ii.duced to
leave bis matter and in many instances his
master has left him, making him discon
tented and miserable, dependent w'ooiiy
upon the Government for protection :l
support. The oego slave was much better
situated before the war broke out. arid any
person who knows of their present condi
tion will readily admit this to be the fact.
To Consumptives.
THE advertiser bavins been restored to
health in a few weeks, by a very simple
remedy, after having suffered years with a
severe lung affection, and that dread dis
ease, Consumption is anxious to make
known to hia fellow-sufferers the means of
cure.
To all who desire it, he will send a copy
of the prescription used ftee of charge,
with the direction for preparing and using
the same, which they will find a sure cure
or Consumption. A6lhrr.a, Brcr.ctiins, &c.
Tbe only pbject of the advertiser in send
ing the Prescription is to benefit the afflic
ted, and spread information which he con
ceives to be invaluable, and he hopes eve
ry sufferer will try his remedy, as it will
cost them nothing, and may prove a bless

THE NEW YORK WEEKLY NEWS is
unrivaled in its ability and enterprise as a
public journal, and in
EVERY DEPARTNENT
is mo"t efficien: ly conducted , so as to form
a weekly record of events political, com
mercial, financial ani literary, throghout
the World. In addition to thi it contains
all the Do mestic Intelligence ofewch week
and full reports of every matter of public
interest.
As a political Journal The Week ly News
will be loutid on the side of tha Constitu
tion of the country a it was lramed and
est ablithed hy the Fathers ol the Republic,
and will scan with care and fidelity every
public act that may tend to the violation of
the let ter and spirit of thai instrument of
our liberties. It prefers the
POLICY OF PEACE
to a ruinous and exhausting system of War.
Insisting- upon the trutn of the principle
embodied in the Declaration of Indepen
dence, thai the just powers of the Govern
ment are derived from the consent of the
governed, it urges the preservation of the
fundamental principles of liberty, inviolate ,
as of more sacred mporisnce than national
grandeur or consolidated power under des
potic rule without the pale of establihed
law. On all question of national impor
tance it 5s the inflexible champion of the
rights of citizens, as guaranteed under the
instruments by which they bav edecided to
be governed. It therefore holdiy avows its
purpose ta sustain the FreodomSof Speech
and of the Pret-s, with the view to protect
the people fromlthe encroaching dogmas of
theorists who coritfmpelate a modification
of the democratic principles which to thi
time havelbeen sustained against every ef
fort to overthrow ihem. In all matters per
filling to Government the purpose of this
newspaper is to protect the people trom in
considerate ar.d rash legislation, and to
hold our public servants. to a drift account
ability for their conduct while carrying ou
the machinery of power. To this end the
moxt careful attention will be given to ?ll
Federal and Legislative laws, and a firm
and impartial examinat atiott of every new
yolitical proportion may be expected a
the only means of protecting the people
from an abrldemeut'ol their riahN.
COMMERCIAL & MARKET REPORTS
are givn in Hie most succinct yet complete
manner. They claim particular notice
for their fidelity and truth, and all tho-e
who dei-ir to comprehend the exact finan
cial condition of the couetry i-hould not
fail to examine the views which will be
lounn in this department of the journal.
THE FOREIGN CORRESPONDENCE
will be found especially interesting aod in
otructiAe and being derived froui some of
the ablest minds in Europe mu-t be read
with the utmost avidity by those who desire
to camprehend that diplomacy of the Gov
ernments of the OUI Weld.
In all other respects THE WEEkLY
NEWS will be found to meet the public de
mand. It is the ecpecial object of the Pro
prietor to render u a valuable and enter
taining. FAMILY NEWSPAPER,
pure in its moral influence, eunobling in

Pills will( correct tbe liver and Momwch
and thus remove all the acrid humors from
