separate without solemnly ro-affirmiug the
declarations adopted at our last Couvin-

of the Rebellion, the necessity of its for-
eible suppression, the righteousncsa of the
war which is waged by the Government
of the United States for the maintenance
of the national life, and the eon iiuent
duty of every Cbris'ian !o support it by
the whole weight of bi iufltieuoes, bis

important successes which bave thus far

iltion of Providcnoo in delivering us from
the invasions of the enemy, and in pro-
teoting our homes our churches, and our
institutions, from the desolation of war;
and the cheering progress which has been
made by tbe Government and the Nation
iu (be recognition of the laws of God and
rights of man in the measures which

calamities of war aa the righteous judg-

trangrssions, we call upon our pastora
and cburcboa to unite with ua in tbo con-
fcasion nf our many and grievous individ-
nal sins, and in fervent supplicatioua for
the Divine forgiveness, that as a people
W may break off eioa by rigbteousoesa,
and do justly, love merry, and walk

)j00 e tbe delegates of tbe General
Syood of tbe Evangelical Lutheran
Church iu the United States, hereby ex-
press our unqualified condemnation of

of the merciful God and Father of us all
for a svstem of human oppression which
exists only by violence, uuder the cover
of iniquitous laws.

Thret Days in Cumberland Valley,

It waa an afternoon in early May that
we took the ear. down the river through
, , , . , .
aork county, and overtook a good K'
thunder atorm. It waa the first time I
ever enjoyed sucu a trial ot speed and of
noise, and while our engine overtook aud
paused tha thunder cloud, the discharges
; f 0i(!Crjcitw a. time, deadened the racket
, of the smoke-wasou and all its wheels. It
was a delicious rainstorm. (The theory
that great battles cause rain is disproved
by-the facts that none fell on the Virginia
,, ., . , , .
fields until after ome day. conteat-tbe
first in ibis region eama from tbo east
and the rains on tbls and the following i
day were Inc. I and not extensive.)
Hanover Junction we found entertain
ing as ever, and in due tinf were ushered

r oarry ajatcr to feed the thing as tbey did
i ,he last night I was along here. There
is a capital grade for a road here, but not
well improved : tbe oars jolt from side to
side like drunken man navigating both
sides of a given line : if it would only go
straight ahead strong, like tbe Central
it would get through in about half of its
present time. Another peculiar fashion Is I
collecting toll (aa the man cut off bis dag s
tail) by degrees. At the Juootion, Mr.
Conductor said the fare was 50 ets, which
was paid and no questions asked, whereas
at Hanover tbe operation was repeated : it

of slavery, recognizing no law
tbe system
that held a human being in servitude, but
tbe opposition was quiet and inoperative.
Now the action of the chnrcb is bold and
positive. Its General Conference, speak
ing in the name of the mighty body it re
presents, enacts that no slaveholder can be
a member of tbe Methodist cburcb. Such
action was needed, and it ia a cause of
rejoicing lo know that sueb action was ta
ken. The vote of tbe Conference was sin
gularly unanimous, tbe nays forming bat
nine in a eounl of two hundred. Tbe good
work gains everywhere. The oppression
which for years baa been the curse of the
American Union will never stain our hon
or and mock our liberties after tbe present
struggle lor liberty and Union is over.

u. s, lo-io bonds.
SB Bonda are issued nnder the Act ;
J- of
Congress of March Bin, IS1, which
provides that aH Bonds issued under this
Act shall be EXP MPT PROM TAXATION
by or under any state or municipal auihor
iiy. Subscription to these Bonds are receiv
ed in United Slates no'esor notes of Nation
al Banks. They are TO BE F.KDKEM ED

at any period wt tru tUn tea m,r ,,t than
furlji jjrart from their date, and until their
redemption FIVE PER CENT. INTEREST

over one hundred dollars annually and on .11
o-her Bonds aemi-annoally. The interest
payable on the firal days of March and Hep-
, . . . k ..,
tcmber in each year.
'
Bubscribers will receive either Registered,
or Coupon Bonds as tbey may prefer. Reg-1
, , . . , ,
islered Bonds are recorded on tbe books of
the L. S. Treauier, and can be transferred
only on the owner's order. Coupon Bonds
are payable to bearer, and are more conve
nient fur commercial uses.
Subscribers to this loan1 will have the option
, uf having their Bonds dra
uterasl from
! March 1st. by paying the accrued interest ia
coin (or in United States notes, or the notes
, , 1, 1 ,, . r
of National Banks, adJ.ng fifty per cent, for
premium,) or receive them drawina; interest
from tbe date of subscription and deposit.
As these Bonds are
Eirapt trass Uaslrlpal er State Taiatlua,
their value is increased fm one to three per
cent, per annum, according to the rale of tax
levies in various parts of the country.
At the present rate of premium on gold
they pay
Over Eislit Per Cent Interest
iu currency, and are of equal convenience as
I , . . ,,., ;..vlniiil
h is believed lhat no aesjirities offer au ,
.., i,,,,.m,t to lenders as the various
descriptions of V. 8. Bonds. In all other
forms of indebtedness, the faith or ability of
private parlies or slock companies or sepa-
I 1 .
rale communities only is pledged for par-
; ... j a...
'. meat, while for tbe debts of the United States
' the whole property uf the country is holden
to secure the payment of both principal and
interest in coin
These Bouds may be aubs:ribed for in
sums from $ 50 np to any magnitude, on the
same terms, and are thus made equally avails
able to Ihe smallest lender and the largest
capitalist. They can be converted into money
j " ""J1 mo,nen, and the holder will hare the
benefit or the interest.
It may be useful to state in this connection
that tbe total Funded Debt of the United
I Siates on which interest is payable in gold.
j on the 3d day of March I8C4, was 9709,965,-
'
i 000.
The interest on ibis debt fur the coming
i , . .. . -,,, ... I
i fiscal year will be 15,937.I26, while the,
: customs revenue in gold for tbe current fiscal
. year, ending June 30th. 1864, has been so far
i .
at the rate of over $100,000,000. per annum:
It will be seen that even the present gold
revenues of the Government are largely in
excess of the wants of the Treasury for the
payment of gold interest, while the recent
increase of ihe tariff will doubtless raise the
annual receipts from customs on Ihe same
amount of importations, lo $130,000,000 per
annum.
Instructions to the National Banks acting
as loan agents were not issued from the
I'nited Slates Tretaury until Marrh 26, but
in the first three weeks of April the subscrip
tions averaged more than TEN MILLIONS A j
WEEK.
Subscriptions will be received by all
ICATIOXAL B.4XKS
which are depositaries of Public money, and
all
RE8PECTARLE BANKS AND BANKERS
throughout the country, (acting as agents of
the National Deposit Banks,) will furnish
