Citizens or Columbia County Arrkstkd.
On Wednesday mornifrg of last week the
'Army ot the FUhingcreek" made some
seventy arrests, and on the evening'bf the
same day forty-five of the number were
sent to Harrisburjr, under mili'ary guard.
The following named persons are among
.he prisoners: Daniel McHeory, TrVas'arer
of Columbia County: Rohr McHeury, sue of
our County Commissioners ; Dyer L. Cha
pin, Merer, .frit of NeV Columbus ; Jame
McHenry, Mercbantof Cambra, Luzerne
county; VVilliam Appleman, Eaq;Wd Mont.
Cole, Esq., of Sugarloat ; George Herle
man, of Jackson; Wm. E. Barrett, M D.,
of Cambra, Luzerne county ; John J. Stiles,
Laudlo'rd, and H'rtirn, Everett, Merchant, in
Benton, this county. These men have
been arrested and dragged away from their
homes lor, they kuox not what. Ttny were
not found assembled in arms as has been
reported abroaJ, out at their respective
homes. Tiey. were summarily arretted
and taken from their coorny, as hundreds
ol other men have been, throughout the
State, wittiout sufficient cause, and may,
after some months, be released without
trial or even knowing who are their accu
sers. Ni more civil, law-abiding, honest,
and upright .' o4piop'e can be found in
fijujui.'iy, than just theue people the abo
iilioiitst t.ava seen til wreak their ven
geance opon. What the charges are, if
a.iv. against these people, we have Dot
teen intormed. ll they are arrested opon
charges manufactured by some of their ab
olition friends, we would ait for them a
speedy trial by the United States Court, as
per act of Congress, and give 'all whom it
may concern" an opportunity to come for
ward and substantiate the charges. These
people are men of property, of liberal
means, and should the au:horities cot be
able to give 'them an immediate trial, in the
name of common justice grant them the
privilege oi entering bail for their appear--aoce.
lo many of the cases it .would be
perfectly safe and proper to take their own
recognizances. But if they are held and
to be tried under military author iif, and not
turned over to the Courts as is provided,
then we tiaie no more to say at present but
abide the workinso of time.

men had congregated, were in arms, threat
ening resistance to any further advance of
the Federal army, and were actually cap
tured a prironers of waf in afijlt or skir
mish, which was not the case. They were
arres eJ each anJ every One, early in the
ruoruing, by squads of soldiers, at tt.eir re
spective homes before leaving thsir hoases.
Many of them were brought away without
a coat on their backs. When they were
brought through this place some of tbera
were shivering with cold and suffering
with hunger, not having bad any thing to
eat nce ihfc evening before. These peo
ple are not accustomed to such treatment.
The Lincoln administration are fastening
.the irons tighter and tighter upon the peo
ple. The liberties of the people are being
taken away step by step. These things

spite of alt the Clergy ! They preached
mrtd prayed for blood-letting nntil they Ser
enaded the people to try it, and now the
people are determined that this depletion
shall be stopped, and by the party only
that can save the country -the Democratic
pany ! , .
CocaT has not yet adjourned. There is
not much business doing this Term. The
Traverse Jurors were dismissed on Mon
day. It was found that there would be no
business lo come before them. The Grand
Jurors were discharged on Tuesday. The
bringing of a lot of soldiers into our coun
ty and the pending draft has interfered ma
terially with the business ot this Term.
We will give a synopsis of the proceedings
in our next.
Fishinccrikk township is hdt so disloyal
after all. We understand that the patriotic
and loyal township of Catawissa fillled its
quota chiefly with men from Fishingcreek
township. A bad an they have been re
ported to be they are sot too bad or dis
loyal lo fill the quota of an Abolition town
thip. Out upon jach patriotira: ,
It the Republican cannot produce any bet
ter reasons for re-electing Lincoln, than it
contained last week, it bid better abandon
its candidate. Lincoln having commenced
ard continued ibis war over three years,
honld have'tLe privilege of closing it, es
pecially when a victory is so near at hand,
is among the cbief causes set out by these
Abolition organs why the people should re
elect bim. 'Lincoln baa continued a ? igor
ous prosecution of this war for nearly four
years, to' complete a job which he told the
people could be dooo in three months, and
to-day the rebellion is no nearer an end
than it was two years ago. To talk about
Lincoln having the rebellion nearly sub
dued, crushed and strangled, is foolishness,
more especially when it comes from men
who are presumed to know something.
We wish it Was so, and our country once
more at peace.. But so long as the war is
prosecuted for the freedom of the negro,
we need not expect a speedy termination
of it ; and re have very great doobta as lo
our ability to conquer the South upon that
issue. Sdch a victory is not on record,
where a determined set of rJidpTe Jcf the'
number of the Sonth, have ever be sub
dued, by a like number of the North or even
more. Any man who votes lor Lincoln this
FallWss for more 'trfi'es, further -conscriptions,
and four years more war. This is
plainly to be se'eh.
Thomas Dunn encourages arresis.no mat
ter how they are made, or who they are,
only so they are Democrats. He delights in
seeing his neighbors dragaed off and lodged
in some Fort. He and his whole Abolition
party ire doing what they can to have us
arrested.aalihoo2h he insinuatingly says we
are hot of sufficient importance. The Aboli
tionists would have us taken away nd
lodged in some bantile, simply because we
publish a Democratic paper, tell them some
stubborn facts, do not support old Abe or
the war, but support McClkllav, the man
who is destined to deeat Lincolv, the shod
dy candidate.
Thc "Army of the Fishirigcreek," we
understand, has moved a little farther north,
in the direction of PhelpsviJle, some dozen
or more miles from Benton, their former
place of encampment. There has been no
fighting. The Fort is still undiscovered,
with those brms pieces, about which the
timid Abolitionists have had so much talk.
Those who talked the loudest about the
Fort are the ones that should be made find
it.
A portion of the Abolition parry want a
substitute for A. Lincoln- Tbey think most
any kind of a change would be for the bet
ter. The Democracy will make a change
for tbem, with Littlb Mac, in the course
of a couple of mouths.
Thc political prisdner taken from 'thru
county are in Fort Mifflin, near Philadel
phia. We call tbem political prisoners,be
cause we have no evidence ot their having
committed treason, but are known to be
Democrats of the old Jeflersonian stamp.
It is an easy matter lo become a mar-
rr. All tnai is necessary is 10 supuoit iuo
Constitution, the Union as it was, and op
pose old Abe's usurpations and emancipa
tion proclamations. This will insure your
name on the roll cf martyrs. "Suppose
Thomas Dvnn try it.

U. S. 7-30 LOAN.
The Secretary of the Treasury gives no
tice that subscriptions will e received for
Coupon Treasury Notes, payable three
years from Aug. 15tb, 1864, with semi
annnal interest at tfie . rate of seven and
three-tenths per cent, per aunumj princi
pal and interest both to be 'paid in lawful
money.
These 'notes "will be convertible at the
option of the bolder at maturity, into six
per cent, eold bearing bonds, payable not
less than 'five" nor more than twenty years
from1 their date, as the Government may
elect. They will be issued in denomina
tions of"S50, S100, 8500, $1,000 and 85,000,
and all subscriptions must be for fifty dol
lars or some multiple of fifty dollars. .
' The notes will be transmitted, to the
owneis free of transportation charges as
soon after the receipt of the original Cer
tificates of Deposit as they can be prepared.
As the notes draw interest Trom August
15lh, persons making deposits subsequent
to that date must pay the interest accrued
from date of note to date'of deposit.
Parties depositing twenty 'five dollars
and upwards for these notes at any one
time will be allowed a commission of one
quarter of one per cent., which will be
paid by the Treasury Department upon
the receipt of a bill for the amount, certi
fied to by the officer with whom 'the de
posit was made. "No deductions for com
missions must be made from the deposits.
Special Advantages of this Ldan.
It is a National Saving Bank, offering a
higher rate of interest than any'bther, and
the best security. Any savings bank which
pays its depositors in U.S. Notes, considers
that it is paying in the b.t circulating me
dium of the country, and it cannot pay in
anything better, for its own assets are eith
er in government securities br 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 With banks as collaterals for
discounts. .
Convertible into a Sir per 'Cent. r5-20
Gold Bond.
In addition to ihsj vary 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
5-20 Bonds is not less than nine per cent,
premium, and before the war the premium
on six per cent. "United States Stocks was
over twenty per cent. It will be seen that
tfie actual profit on this loan, at tHe present
market rale, "is not less than ten per cent,
per annum.. . .
'Its Exemption from State or Municipal
Taxation.
But aside from all the advantages we
have enumerated, a special act ot Congress
exempt all Bonds and Treasury Notes. flora
local Taxation. On the average, this ex
emption is worth about two per cent, per
annum, according to the rate of taxatida in
various parts ol the country.
Il ls believed that no securities offer so
great inducements to lenders as those issu
ed by the government. In all oiher forms
of indebtedness, the faith or ability of pri
vate parties, or stock companies, or sepa
rate com'muniiies, only,.!" pledged for
payment, wtwle the whole property ol the
country is held to secure the discharg'9 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 the loyalty
and patriotism of the people.
Duplicate certificates will be issued for
all deposits. The parly depositing most
endorse upon the original certificate the
denomination of uotes required, and wheth
er they are to be issued in blank or paya
ble to order. When so endorsed it mu6t
be left with the officer receiving the depo
sit, to be forwarded to the Treasury depart
ment. Subscription's Vill be received by the
Treasurer of the United Stares, at Washing

to pristine vigor and health. We can pre

Messrs Selh W. Fooler & Co., Boston
Gentlemen. Aboutihree years ago our
daughter, now twelve years ot age, wa
severely afflicted with croup. A .general
irritation of the lungs followed, producing
a hectic cough, which became almost con
stant ; swelling oMhe temples and other
indications of Con'cmptiou were also ap
uarenti and her lile was despaired of by
her physician. At this critical moment we
were induced lo ive Dr. Wistar's Balsam
of Wild Cherry a trial, ar.d after ehe had
taken one bottle we found her so much re
lieved that il was thought u. nessary -t,c
continue its use. rMtice that lime we havi
used the Balsam ir. our family in cases of
Coughs and Colds, Vnd believe.it 1to be a
superior remedy fot all diseases of the
Lungs.
Yours with respect JAMES GRIMES.
FROM JEbE SMITH, E-q.,
President of the Morris CouFiiy Bank.Mor
ristown, N. I.
"Having used Dr. Wittar's Balsam of
Wild Cherry for about filteen"yars, and
having realized its beneV-ial results in rcy
family,. it affords rue great pleasure in re
commencjing it to the puolic as a valua
ble remedy in cases ol weak lungs, colJ,
coughs, &c., and a remedy which I conoid
er to be entirely innocent, and may be ta
ken with perfect safety by the most deli
cate in health."
