LOCAL INTELLIGENCE,
I A Question Answebeb.—By what au-
I thority does the. Agent of the 5-20 bonds
. f advertise that the principal of eaid horde
lis payable in gold? To which the Led
; Ireplies : Because the Government has
I never yet paid any of its loans otherwise
I than in gold or its _ equivalent, having so
I paid one loan within the present year,
I when the difference between coin and pa*
I per was as wide as it is likely to be at the
I time of maturity of any existing loan. It
I is an acknowledged obligation of the Gov-
I eminent, so far as unvarying custom goes,
Ito pay in coin. Nothing else is contem-
I plated, and any proposition to pay'any
I Government loan otherwise than in gold
lor its equivalent, would be estimated so
I vile a violation of plighted faith as to
I rouse the indignation of the whole conn*
I try.. Aside from all this, there is no ne*
I ceßsity for any such gratuitous sacrifice of
I credit. The Treasury, from its revenues
from customs, Ac., and the required ap
propriations to a sinking fund, will have
abundant means to pay regularly the semi* i
annual interest and principle, as it falls ,
due, in coin. The loa'ns that are now in
the market have some eighteen or twenty
years to run, supposing the 5-20 s to run
to their limit, long before the expiration of j
which time we hope to see this unnatural j
war ended, with both the currency and ]
the credit of the country at par.
I Union Prisoners in Richmond —The
I editor of. the Baltimore American propos*
J ed to visit Richmond in his private capac-
I ity, in order to superintend the distribu*
I tion of food and clothing sent to the
I Union prisoners confined in the prisons of
II hat city, and who are in a suffering and
I starving condition. He says .* that an
ambnlaDoe of supplies will be forwarded
from Baltimore ana the loyal States, pro
vided there is a certainty that they will
reach their destination, there can be no
manner of doubt. All that is required,
then, is some medium of communication
between the donors and the receivers of
their contributions. To supply this much
needed medium, Mr. Fulton has volun
teered to undertake this by no means de
sirable mission, if the Richmond authori
ties w.ll accept the proposition.
PHILADELPHIA,
I Rainy Saturdays. —lt is somewhat re-
I markable,that for five weeks in succession
there have been heavy rain storms on Sat
urdays, -rbile the weather has been quite
I dry on other days, excepting that some of
I the storms have lasted through the follow
ing.Sundays. Somelmeteorologists explain
it by saying that heavy storms trevel in
great circles, about which they revolve a
number ot times before their force ib spent,
and consequently they revisit the same
place as many times as they traverse the
circle, with about an equal interval of time
between each visit. If this be true, the
five successive storms have been the same
storm,jnst as Paddy’s “drunk” was "the
same drunk” he had been caught in Borne
dayß before.
Pittsburgh Theatre. —Novelty is the
order of the day at this popnlar house, and
crowds nightly attest their approbation of
it. This evening Mr. R. E. J. Miles and
his educated horses appear in the ever
successful drama of *• Putnam.” Mr. M.
appearing as the historic General, and his
famons horse, Hiawatha, as his gallant
steed. Sefton, Loveday, Chippendale and
Karnes, and Misses Eberle, Hyatt, &c.,
also are in the cast, making the combina
tion most powerful, and one that cannot
fail to draw another great house. The
ghost also walks to night. Don’t fail to
go and see it.
Pittsburgh Sanitary Committee We
direct attention to the advertisement of
this truly patriotic organization, which
will be found in another column. The
Committee is now sending off daily large
supplies for the relief ot onr sick and
wounded soldiers, and if our citiz 'ns ex
pect the organization to continue the good
work, they should aid it liberally with
supplies. It iB certain that, the articles
sent now go through, and are properly and
promptly distributed.
Robbeby.-Arbests. Yesterdaymorn
ing information was made before Mayor
Sawyer of a bold robbery committed at
thp residence of Mr. Fraliche, near Oak
land, on Monday evening. Officers Hague
and Moon took the matter in hand, and
succeeded in arresting the thieves yester
day The rascals showed fight, but were
finally captured, and safely lodged in jail.
Messrs. Hague and Moon deserve credit
for the manner in which they managed the
arrest.
Death of a Pittsburgher —By refer
ence to onr obitnary column it will be seen
that Ralph Gray, of the firm of Hermin
gray 4 Co , died on Monday last in Cov
ington, Ky. Mr. Gray was well and wide
ly known in this city, and his friends will
learn of his death with deep regret. He
very .justly enjoyed the reputation ot being
an honest, energetic business man, and
had seenred a competence for himself and
family in the glass manufacturing business
in Cincinnati, in whieh he was the pioneer.

Wc are pleased to see that Mr. Cluly has

The Situation In Tennessee.
A NtW Dec - 2 -- The Tribune's
Army of the Potomac dispatch states that
the rebel prisoners captured daring the
battle stated that the enemy knew several
days previously the exact time our army
would cross the Bapidan.
On learning trustworthy details of the en
gegemeni ot the 8d corps, the whole as
pect of the affair, instead of being disas
trous, exhibits saoceas on onr part, in re
pulsing twice in succession the ranks of
6De S! wl I th ,, a J lOB3 I to of at least
*OO or 800 in killed and wounded.
Sunday, Nov. 29, 10* a. m -The rebels
tnis morning remain in their works across
the Bun, and preparations are actively
making by Gen. Meade for a grand as
sanlt. Tne 2d corps moved from the cen
tre to the left, the sth supplying the va
cancy on both sides of the pike. A great
battle will probably be fongnt to-morrow.
Sunday morniDg breaks with clondy
skies and cold, raw east wind. Onr for
I C ® B a^ e agatb changing position to meet
the wiles of the enemy. Engineers, under
cover of the darkness, last night con
| struoted bridges over Mine Ran, and our
artillery protects them now. The enemy
also constructed a considerable line of
earthworks, and have seven heavy guns in
position in full view. Thus stands mat
ters np to ten and twelve o’clock.
The 6th corps, which was in reserve
yesterday, has moved oat to the front and
taken place, while Gen. Warren swung
around to the left to execute important
movements. Now (noon) the expectation
is that a grand battle will open about
three o’clock this afternoon.
ANTHONY MEYER
When the mesßebger with the above
left the front, Sunday afternoon, a Bank
movement was being executed by the 2d
corps, General Warren, which would, it
was thought, bring on a general engage
ment.
Monday, November 30 —Yesterday
morning heavy firing was heard. From
passengers by the train from Rappahan
nock Sutton, we learn that the firing con.
tinned daring the greater part of the fore
noon on Monday.
A dispatch bearer from General Meade
is understood to have come in on the train
with dispatches to the War Department.

New York, Dec. 2—A Washington
correspondent of the Evening Poet of the
Ist, says : The courier cmp.oyed by the
newspaper correspondents came in from
Gen, Meade's headquarters early this
morning. He left the Booth Bide of the
Rapidan yesterday morning, aDd no seri
oue fighting had occurred up to that hour#
It was then believed that Meade would not
attack Gen. Lee before to day, and it was
considered possible that no battle would
be fought, as the army only carried rations
for a very hriei campaign. It will have
to fight soon or fall back for fresh supplies.
It is possible that when Meade has finish
ed the work he has undertaken he will fall
back upon Ftederickßbnrg, though nothing
is known upon that, point. At, five o’clock
this p. m , the Government has heard
nothing from the Rapidan. and in official
.circles this tact is accepted as favorable
rather than the contrary.
