A Good Idea. It will be remembered that
the Board of Directors of the Pennsylva
nia Railroad Co. a year or more ago, offer
ed to place at the disposal of the S'ate
Government the munificent Bam of fifty
thousand dollars, to be disbursed in pay
ieg bounties to volnnteerß. At the time
this money was tendered to the State,
there was no authority vested m the Gov
ernor to accept it, and therefore it was
declined. Believing that the corporation
in question is 6till willing to advance this
sum for the promotion of any object that
woald contribute to the comfort or the
encouragement of those in the army from
Pennsylvania, Goverhor Curtin suggest;
that the Legislature authorize him to ac
cept the same, and that an appropriation
be made, in addition, the whole Bum to
be used for the support of a retreat
school, asylum—or whatever it may be
called—for the orphan childreu of the
soldiers. We trust that the supc *tion
of the Governor will meet with prompt
attention from the Legislature.
Mutiiated Currency. —There u- a pre
vailing disposition among small dealers,
indeed, among business mea generally, to
repudiate all the small postal currency
that have pieces torn off them, or which
have been torn snd mended. They imag
ine that such notes will not be redeemed
by the Secretary of the Treasury. They
are in error. A Treasnry order issued
some time ago eubstantially announced
that such notes would be rejected, but a
more recent Treasury apnouement has
been made effective that all such notes
will be redeemed, provided one fifth of a
note be not missing, and ii is apparent that
a mended note has been repaired with the
piece torn from itself, and is not made up
of pieces torn from two or more different
notes.

Another Railroad. —It is proponed to
construct a railroad from West Given
ville by the way of Mercer to the neigh
borhood of Harrisville, in Butler county.
The engineers will commence the survey
of the route in a few days. This project
is one of importance and of great public
advantage. It will develop the great coal
region, one of the largest and richest in
Western Pennsylvania, aod add material
ly to the wealth of Mprcer county and to
the comfort and convenience of her citi
zens.
“ Choice of Parents,”—lmportant
In all cases where exemption from draft
is asked, on the gronnd that “two or more
bods are liable to military duty,’’ the
elicit..- must be made before December
20th, and not postponed antil the dralt
has been made. Last draft, owing to th»
law being new and imperfectly understood,
parents were allowed to exempt one,*
where two were drafted.’' This cannot
be allowed in the January draft.

As there seemß to he a very general im
pression abroad that persons who have
been drafted and paid the s3oOcommuta
tion do not stand upon the same footing
as those who furnished substitutes, we give
the letter of Hon. Thaddens Bteveos, who
was the recognized Republican “leader”
of the last Congress. it is dated Lancas
ter, August 27, 1863; and would seem to
settle this vexed question :
In answer to your inquiry, my opinion
is, that the payment of tbe three hundred
commutation and the furnishing a substi
tute have precisely the eame effect. Either
of them Ireea the drafed man from farther
draft for three years. He is in effect
in service, either by himself or another.
She payment of the three handred dollars
makes the Government his agent to pro
core a substitute. The Government has
consented to as such The law says
he may, ‘'on <~r before the day fixed for
his appearance, famish an acceptable sab
etitote, or pay such earn, not exceeding
three hundred dollars, for the procuring
of such substitute ; and thereupon the
person lurnishing such substitute, or pay
ing the money, shall be discharged from
further liability under that draft.” No
one doubts that famishing a substitute ex
enses for three years. To give a different
effect to the payment of the commutation
money seems to me little less than an ab
surdity. It ie a very mischievous miscon
struction. which, if need be, I have no
doubt, Congress will correct. 1

Death of a Soldier. —The friends of
Lieut. William M'Laoghlin, of the Ist
Ohio regiment, company 1., will regret to
learn that he wa6 among the killed in the
late battle of Chattanooga. Tbe writer
who communicates the sad intelligence,
says he fell while gallantly bearing aloft
the starry emblem of his country. Tbe
Union woldierg were charging up the rocky
sides of Missionary Ridge, when the color
sergeant was woanded. Instantly Lient.
M Laughlin snatched the colors from his
hands, and beckoned the brave boys to
follow him When near the summit of
the hill, and almost in possession of the
enemy s works, he received a wound from
which he died almost instantly. Hie com
panions buried him in the soldiers’ burial
ground, a r Chattanooga. He was a brave
soldier, tbe idol of his companions in

Report of the Secretary of the
The Rebel General Morgan Seen In
dc„ <frc., Ac., Ac
New Yore, Dec. 10.—The public sale
of damaged Cape wool, this morniDg, was
not very largely attended, still enough
were present to invite competition. The
prices realized were very high and ex
ceeded expectations. The wool was held
for and ou acconnt of underwriters, the
whole offering sold at prices ranging from
22 to 3B cents for that in bales, and the
loose wool which was very badly damaged
at 4£ and 6 cents
A Synopsis of the. Secretary of the
Treasury 3 Report. —ln submitting to the
consideration of Congress the report of
the state of the finances, the Secretary of
the Treasury has expressed much Batis
faction in being able to Bay in gen
eral, that the operatious of the de
partment entrusted to his charge
nave been attended during the last
fiscal year by a greater measure of success
than he had anticipatad at its begin
ning. Notwithstanding the aid af
forded by the additional issue of U, S.
notes under the joint resolution of Janua
ry, the Secretary has found it impossible
to prevent the gradual increase during the
sitting of Congress on the amount of
unpaid requisitions. These which were
unsatisfied at the beginning of the session
were indeed discharged, aod large sums
were applied to new demands for current
disbursement. But ihe aggregate die
buraements awaiting necessarily and un
paid, increased steadily, notwithstanding
all efforts to prevent it, until it reach
ed, at the close of the session, the sum of
$7,281.19. The loan act and the national
banking act. were followed by an imme
diate revival of public credit, and suc
cess quite £eyond anticipation crowned
the efforts the Secretary to distribute
the fiv« twenty loan in all parts of tbe
country, as well as every measure pro
posed by him for replenishing the Treas
ury.
The result was that within twe months
after the adjournment of Congress the
whole mass of suspended organizations
had b-*eu satisfied, all correct demands
promptly rnri and fall provision made for
the paymemol our armies and navy during
th i; remainder of the fiscal year. No cm
barrassment attended the administration
of the finances, except those which are
inseparable tram vast expenditures. Not
withstanding these expenditures, it i*
gratifying to be able to stale that during
las' year the total disbursements did
not greatly exceed, while the increase of
the public debt did not equal the animates
submitted to Congress by the Secretary at
the last session.
Thus, while it was thou estimated that
the public debt on th- 3d i.f ,Jun»-, 1803,
would reach the sum of $1,122,297 403,
its actual amount on tha* day was $1,098,-
798,181 ; and wnile the disbursements tor
t.,e year were estimated at $693,34*.821.
ihr real total was $714,709 995

New York, Dec. 10. A special to the
Times, dated Washington, Dae. l nay:' ;
Gen. Meade's army is quietly encamped
in Colpeper coouty, on the south bank
of the Rappahannock. Gen. Lee occupies
his old position at Orange Court House,
hia advance line guarding the Rapid&u
fords. The pickets arn again on triendiy
terms. There is but little duelling, and
but few casualties on either side. Bush
whackers are beginning to swarm again
on our dank and rear.
Jiff. Davis issued bis annual message to
the Rebel Congress on Monday. Ihe doc
ument is mournful.
Deserters eay that Gen. Lee’s army
does not exceed 35,000, and is rai-ing hu-a
for winter quarters along the line of the
Rapidan.
Meade will rood be relieved uf his com
mand. Hia successor has not y«r been
appointed, however. It is known that
the Fresid-ht and Mr. Chase favors the
refitorarion of Gen. Hooker, while the
Secr.-tary ot War hesitates between him
and General Thomas. In the event ot
Thomas taking command the general im
pression is that Hooker will succeed him
in command oLthe army ot the Camber
land.
There is no truth m the rumor that
Gen. Fioasantori was assigned to thecom
mand of the army of the Potomac. L has
been determined to re-organize that
army.
Speaker Colfax is busily engaged in ma
king up his budget h a great
pressure for positions on tru- Committee of
Ways and Means. ft will be selected
with unusual carefulness. Mr. Colfax is
alive to 'he importance of placing.upon
it the bent financial and business talent in
the House. It is probable ihat Mr. Steb
biUb, elected as a Democrat, and con
ceded to be one of the most skillful bank
ers in New York, will he offered a place
on the Committee made vacant Corn*
ing’s resignation. Mr. Stevens willrelain
his position aa chairman.
The standing committees of the Senaf
have been agreed upon, and will bn an

material changes have beet. made. Hon,
W. D. Kelly, of Pennsylvania, will proba

THB CLOSE OP THE MARKET.
Tuesday, Deo. 8. —The morning opens bright
and ctear. The market does not. The arrival
of several hundred head ol fresh stock has proved
entirely too much for the demand. Indeed, we
night say there is no demand. It is certain that
butchers can bay stock to-day at V lb less
than yesterday; sellers sny lo V &>. Some of the
wholesale butchers say the same, and regret that
they bought a supply yesterday. The number
ofoattle in market proves much larger than dro
vers and tho a e who bought stock st
high rates, anticipated a large advance* particu
larly those which arrived for the olosmg day,
will not make so large a plie as they expected.
It will be observed byway of explanation 01 the
hbril olose of the market that there are over TOO
head m -re buLocka on sale at AUerton’s t.hn.p WQ
had last week, and the number at ail the market
places again exceeds 5.000 head for the week, It
may also bo noticed that the number from this
state continues very lane, Some speculators,
who have gene West to buy cattle, anticipate a
considerable rise of prices as soon as the Hew
York Stale stock is exhausted, Perhaps the
hard close of this market will check the expec
tations of some of the speculators who are now
v*»y sanguine.
M 1 loh Cows—The demand for cows keeps up
so tout ad the ireah ones that arrive sell readily
at wie-s that may be estimated as follows:
Thit is far the cow, her value counted as beef
according to quality, and value of the call ac
cording to sise and quality; to which add from
£5 to 4>lo, according to circumstances, for the cow
as a milker. We noticed a sale of on© cow and
calf to-day at $6O, and two others with calves,
both for the same amount. In the first case the
quoltiy of the cow as a milker added $l5 to her
price.
Vral Calves are quiet in one sense, though
by no means to in the sale pens. But few firtt
rate 00 ea oome in, and these sell quiok at
V live weight. Owing to the good market for
milk there are a goed many bobs sent in, which
sell for bat little more than the value of the
sr ins*
