to this place from a Washington Hospital,
where he died, and interred in 'the Ceme

He was a brave and upright soldier Democrat.
A Soidier, for deserting, was sentenced
to have his ears cnt off. After undergoing
the ordeal he was escorted ooi of thebr-
racks-yard to the tone ol "The Rogue's
March." He then tnrned, and, in mock
dignity, thus addressed the band: "Gentle
men, I thank you : bat I have no ear for
music." "
The State Legislature is terribly Aboti
tionized from present appearances. Abo
lition Members 64 Democrats, 36 Abo
lion majority 28. In the Senate it looks as
if the Abolitionists had 7 majority. Ihat
will give them 35 majority on joint ballot
This may be a little too strong; but so it
looks at present.
Shcddy is hard to please. When the
constitutional amendments were before "the
people to be voted upon, to decide whether
or not the soldier shonldhave the right to
vo:eShoddy exercioed himself very moch
in behalf ol the soldier, declaring that it
was right and proper that the soldier
should have a vote. Now, since that ii ac-
f
comp ibed, we nae heard these same 1
; . . . ... . .
Shoddyites remark and declare, that it was
altge:her wrong in giving the soldier the
privilege of voting, whenever the soldier's
vote was against their candidate and in
favor of some Democrat. It the soldier
votes with Shoddyn every thing then it is
all right; bui it. otherwise then he ough
not have a vote. , Shodoy has particular
love for a man when that man assists him
in filling his pocket.

Ailention, Shoulier Arms! Get ready;
lor the Draft. Akdt Curtin is bound to i
make hi draft for those fif'een regiments
the late Legislature anthorized him to raise
for Siate delense. The Commissioners of
this county have received notice to proceed
at once to make the enrolment of all per
sons bet ween the aes of 21 and 45 sub
ject to do military duty. The township
Assessors will make the enrollment, if we
read the law correctly. Blanks will be im
mediately furnished. That majority receiv
ed by Mr. Lincoln in this State will have a
chance no o show their patriotism and
fidelity to Ihe cause o.' the Union Gel
your equipments ar.d rarions in readiness
to march at a moment's notice, by order of
Andrew Cortin, Governor commanding ihe
milMiaol the State of Pennsylvania.
Montour Countt The Democracy of
this county have done nobly. In few coun
ties did ibe Opposition make a more des
perate effort to reduce be Democratic ma
jority Tbe official result ol the late elec
tion shows a gain ol at least fortt votes
on the majori;y for the Democracy since
tae October election. In the Borough ol
Danville both parties struggled hard to in-
cjease their vote. The Democracy of Mon
tour fought their battles nobly, and almost
single-handed and alone, as did the county
ol Columbia. And in so doing we have ac
complished as much if not more than most
of the counties where all the talent and
eloquence the p-irty possessed was used
Montour a;d Columbia are always erect.
Tbe Democraiic majority in this county is
sevehty-one more at this than at the Octo
ber election ; and the increase on the poll
is five hundred and fifty. So you see the
Democracy more than held their own.
Hurrah for McClellan, if we are defeated !
Rights or the States. The observance
of the rights of the States by Mr. Lincoln
would have defeated secession by concili
ation. The overriding ot those constitu
tional claims has led from war to despotism,
and from despotism to alt bot hopelessdis
union. The sovereignty of the Stales "is
not sounder in law than it has thus shown
itself in practice.
Is Illinois the Republican majority is sup
posed to be abocTl 5.000 ; and the Legisla
ture is said to hare a majority in both
branches. This will secure a Republican
United States Senator in place of Hon. Wm.
A. Richardson. Richard J. Oglesbt is elect
ed Governor for four years, and Wm. Bloss
Lieutenant Governor. .

but is in delicate health. He is on a short

are no better officers in the army, nor any
that have seen harder service.
The Abolitionists are pretty much in the
same fix with Mr. Lincoln, now that they
have re-elected him. a ihe man was who
won the Elephant at a raffling match. Af
ter he had won him he did not know what
he should do with birr. Just so with the
Abolitionists. They do not know what to do
with Lincoln. They do not like his policy
ol conducting this war, besides many oilier
things 'connected with his administration
they do not like, but what are they: eoing to
do with him. He will "pot his foot down''

Special .Advantages of this Loan.
It is a National Saving Bank, offering a
higher rate ol inti-rest . than any other, and
the best security. Any savings bank which
pays it depositors in U. S. Noteson-iders
thai it is paying in Ibe best oireolatins rne--dium
of the country, and it cannot pay in
anything better, frr its own aa-ets are eith
er in government securities or in
notes or bonds payable ia government
paper.
It is equally convenient a 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 Six per cent. -5-20
Gold Bond.
In addition to the vary liberal interest on
Ihe notes for three years, ihis 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 belore the war the premium
on six per cent. United Slates Stocks was
over twewy per cent. It will be seen that
the actual profit on this loan, at ihe present
murkei rale, ia not less than ten per cent,
per annum.
Its Exemption from Stale or Municipal
Taxation.
But aside from all the advantages we
have enumerated, a special act of Congress
exempt all Bonds and Treasury No'es from
total Taxation. On the average, this ex
emption is worth about Iwo per cent, per
annum, according to the rate of taxation in
various parts ol the country.
It is believed that no securities offer so
great inducements to lenders as those issu
ed by the government. In all other forms
of indebtedness, the faiti or ability of pri
vate parties, or stock companies, or sepa
rate communities, only, is pledgeJ for
payment, while the whole p'Operty ol 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, ii believes that
the very strongest appeal will be Ibe loyalty
and patriotism of tbe people.
Duplicate certificates will be issued for
all deposits. The .party depositing must
endorse upon the original certificate ihe
denomination of notes required, and wheth
er they are to be issued in blank or paya
ble lo order. When so endorsed il must
be left with the officer receiving the depo
sit, lo be forwarded to the Treasury depart
ment. Subscriptions will be received by the
Treasurer of the United States, at Washing

designated Depositaries, and by tbe
First National Dank
