A C'ol Train on the Lackawanna Rail
road ran over two cows, near the Depot at
, this place, on Thursday morning last, kill-

There is nothing more plain, since the
Issuing ol the - President's Message; than
; that .bis war is being carried on for the
abolition of slavery, for the purpose of
" placing the African on an equality with the
- white man. For this our whTte"solJiers are
sacrificing their lives, and enduring the
hardships and 'privations connected with
the life of a so:diar.
Jkssk Coleman, Esq, "took the oath of
cffiee on . Monday, ai successor to Jacob
Eyrly in the .Protbonotary's office. Mr.
Col? man, if we mistake not, will make af
ter n little experience a good officer. He
enjnys the neowary qualifications, and the
oestioa now i, whether he will learn to
apply them in the right direction. We
nasi he will.' - He was elected for three
years, without the slightest opposition.
Those of our patrons who remembered
us on Court week have our thanks. The
turn-out at Ccurt was small; and, in conse-
- qoijoce, our receipts were not large. All
' "Who are owin ns on subscription and job
,.wtirk, are requested to make payment on or
.,, before the first of Febraary, Court week
-and ave raoriey by it. : We .will be com
'pellbd to incrjasethe price of subscription
if things coni nuaat so high a price. "."
:W learn that Samuel Knorf, Esq., Chair
" rnn of the Republican Standing Committee
of this county, who ooce avowed he s never
would support Gov. Curtin and afterwards
- wheeled into line, has received a com mis"
sioo as CapMin aod has 'gone to - report
himself at Baltimore. We are cot rel;ably
, Hsformed as to whether he takes charge of
eo'ored or white troops but inclined to
believe the former.- .
. .. Donation Pahtt. We notice by a Card

. J W. Lescheb, Pastor of the German Re
' formed Congregation of thii place,' propose
. making bim a donation, on Wednesday, the

- fighting as this Battery has underwent, one
' might expect to see some decreptilude and
"want of plysique, in its officers. But Lieut.

NO HUMBUG, but an ENTIRELY NEVV

No clap-trap operation to gull the public,
but a genuine money making thing ! Read

yon will understand it perfectly.' A Lady
has just written to me that the is making
as high as TWENTY- DOLLARS SOME
DAYS! giving instructions : in this art.
Thousands of Soldiers are making money
rapidly at it. It i. a thing that takes better
than" any thing' ever ordered. You can
make money with it home or abroad on
steam boats or railroad car, and in the
country or city. You will be pleased in
pursuing it, not only because it will jield
a handsome income, but also in conse
boence of the general admiration which it
elicits. It is pretty much all profit. A
mere trifle is necessary to start with.
There is scarcely one person oat of
thousands who ever pays any attention to
advertisements of this kind, thinking thev
are humbugs. . Consequently those who do
send for instructions will have a broad
field to make money '.n. There is a class
of persons in this world who . would think
that because they have ;beeri humbugged
out of a dollar of so, that everything that
is advertised is a humbug. Consequently
the try no more. The person who suc

he hits something that pars him.

' The Secretary of the Treasury ha not
vel civen noti' of anv intention to with-
draw this popular Loan Irom Sale at Par,
and until ten days nonce is given, the
undersigned,: as "General Subscription
Agent,'' will continue to supply the public.
T he whole amount of the Loan author
ized is Five Hundred Millions of Dollars.
Nearly .Four Hundred Millions have been
already subscribed for and paid into the
Treasury, mostly within tbe last 6even
mon.hs. The large demand from abroad,
and the rapidly increasing home demand
for use as tbe basis for circulation by Na
tional Banking Associations now organiz
ing in all parts of the country, will, in a
very short period absorb Ihe balance.
Sales have lately ranged from ten to fif
teen millions weekly, frequently exceed
ing three millions daily, and as it is well
known that the Secretary of the Treasury
has ample and unfailing tesources in the
Duties on Imports and denial Revenues
and in the issue of t'te Interest bearing
Legal Tender Treasury NoteSj it is almost
a certainty that he will not find it neces
saay, for a long lime to come, to seek a
market for any other long or permanent
Loans, The Interest and Priucipal of which
are payable in Gold.
Prudence and self interest mut force
the minds of those contemplating the for
mation of National Banking Associations,
as well as the minds of all who have idle
money on their hands, to the prompt con
elusion lhal they should lose to lime in
subscribing to this mot popular Loan.
It will soon be beyond ibeir reach, and
advance to a handsome premium, as was
the result with the "Seven Thirty" Loan,
when it was all sold and could uo longer
be subscrided for at par.
IT IS A SIX PER CENT LOAN, THE
Interest and Principal payable in Coin,
thus yielding over Nine per cent, per an
num al the present rate of premium on
Coin.
The Government requires all duties on
Imports to be paid in coin; thnse duties
bave for a long lime past amounted to
over a Quarter of a Million of Dollars
daily, a sum nearly three times greater
than that required in the payment of the
Interest on all the 5-20's aml oiher perma
nent Loans. So that it is hoped lhat the
surplus Coin in the Treasury, at nodis'ani
day, will enable Ihe United States to re
sume specie payments upon ail liabilities.
The Loan is cal.ed 5 20 from the fact
that wbiUt the Bonds may run foi twenty
years yet the Government has a right to
pay them off in Gold at par, al any time
alter five years. .
Ihe Interest is paid half yearly, viz: on
the firsi day ot November and May.
Subscribers can have ,Coupon Bonds,
which are payable to bearer, and are $50,
$100, S500, and $1000; or Registered bonds
of same denominations, and in addition,
5,000 aod 810,000.. For Banking purpo
ses and for investments of TrDi monies,
the Registered bonds are preferable.
These 6-2 0'e cannot be taxed b States,
cities, towns, or counties, and 'he Govern
ment tax on itiem is only ij percent., on
the amount of income,-when the income
of the holder exceeds Six hundred dollars
per annum; all ot her investments, such as
income from Mortgages, Railroad S ock
and Bonds, e c, must pay from three lo
five percent, tax on the income.
Banks and Bankers throughout the conn
try will continue to dispose of the bonds;
and all orders by mail,or otherwise, prom
ptly attended lo.
The inconvenience of a lew days' delay
in the delivery of ihe Bonds is unavoida
ble, the demand being so great; bul as in
terest commences from Itie day of sub
scription, no loss is occasioned, and every
effort is bsing made to diminish the delay.
