Dm ft In the 23d District.
On Thursday, the 2d day of June, a draft will
oommence tor the balance of the few remaining
quotas which are yet deficient. . The following
, are the sub-districts, and the numbers tt> be
drafted, In order to make up the net deficiency
ofthejentire district, which at present is 448.
In many Bub-distiiots the credits exceed the
gross quotas. These credits in excess were
equitably dißtrlbutied among those deficient;
and In this way several sub-districts, which had
small deficiency, were cleared of the draft, and
the deficits of the others proportionately re
duced.' The sub-districts in excess are credited
with the amount, while those in. arrears are
charged with the number thus leaned to them.
Tn no Other way could the net quota of the dis
trict be epultably arrived at.
The usual 60 per oent to cover exemptions
will be added to this number. The assignment
Of credits for volunteers will be continued, not
withstanding the draft.

Episcopal State Convention.— This body
of Divines “&nd lay>rs>rescntatiYes (net at 9
o’clock as per.-acUcurnment and-proceeded to
theVUscoaaion of the Committees* reportrielatlYe
to a division of the Diocese; l Sundry resolu
tions and amendments were offered In regard to
adojiting the report, but, on hiption, the whole
subject was finally laid on the table. Rev Dr.
Howe was then called bn to make an address
on the eutyecs of. Foreign Missions. The Dr.
responded to the call in an able address of a half
hour length, during which time, the greatest
attention wasj paid to his remarks. We took
notes of the' mtoreaa, but dfeeli ne topubUsh them
on the grounds that they would-not represent
the entire argument and power of the address.
The Reports} of several Committees were
afterwards read and Bundry reaolutlans offer*
ed, referring entirely to the business of the
Church and its Parishes.
At two o’clock the Convention adjourned to
meet at St. Andrews Chureh, Philadelphia, this
time next year.
Wehave seldom, ever witnessed a more dig
nified and intelligent body of men assembled in
the capacity of an Convention.
The entire State was represented, forming as
it does, but one Diocese, over which Bishop Pot
tecpibaides.
There must have been near a hundred Clergy
men present, besides the lay representatives.
The entire Church in the United States num
bers about three hundred thousand communi
cants, and from the number of clergy in this
State which is two hundred and thirty, there
must be a considerable portion of its members
in this State, The Eaßtem portion of the State
has the preponderance of both Clergy and laity.
Festival at Latrobe.—On Thursday last
the Festival of Corpus Christi, was celebrated
at St. Vincent's College, near Hatrobe West
moreland county. In the morning It threaten
ed rain, but the sky cleared finally and the day
turned outbeautiful. Over three thousand per
sons were Bald to be in attendance. At the hour
appointed the Rt. Rev. B. Wimmer, Abbot of
St. Vincent, ordered the procession to form,
which was preceded by a Brass Band composed
of the boys belonging to the College. This band
numbered over forty musicians with as many
instruments. About fifty' pontifi
cal dress, headed the procession. had
been mown from the route along which they
were to pass, and the procession marched en
tirely through and round the farm on which
the College Is located. Four altars were erect- !
ed lu different places, decorated with evergreens, j
and the Stars and Stripes of the-country floated j
gratefully over the congregated masses. It was !
indeed a great day for the College and for La- j
trobe. i
This College is presided over by Rev. A iphon
sus Helmler, and numbers about three hundred
students. \ isitors to the College on business
“rj always entertained free of expense. It has
i.i reputation of being a good school, and pa
‘ would do well to visit it before sending

Mayor’s Office. —One man was fined twen
ty-five dollars yesterday morning for using in
sulting language to a lady. In the evening a
number of women appeared before his Honor,
the Mayor,.charging each other with the crime,
or mfedemeanorof looking cross, talking ugly,
keeping spite, and calling 111 names. The Mayor
gave them a hit of wholesome advice, told them
to go home and behave themselves, that if they
got into the meshes of the law once, they would
be glad to get out again, lie requited each
party to pay its own costs, after which all went
home a little wiser and only four dollars
poorer.
Sanitary Fair.—This Fair will open on the
first day of June next. Every possible prepa
ration is making to render it one ef the best
Fairs ever held in the county We see ever
greens coming in by wagon-loads ever}'day, and
committees are busily engaged in arraugingthem
so as to have the best possible effect. Commit
tees are actively employed throughout both
Pittsburgh and Allegheny city, to bring forward
a suitable display in each department. Me
chanics, too, are busy in finishing the different
buildings, in order to have everything in per
fect readiness for the opening of the ceremonies.
Gov. Curtin is to maks the oj>ening address. We
have no doubt that the crowd on the day of
opening will be immense.
Exhibition. —We understand that there
will be an exhibition at St. Xavier’s Academy,
near Latrobe, West moreland county, on the
29th day of June next. Great preparations arc
being made to have the exercises held out of
doors, in a grove.

B. L. 11. Dabbs. Photographer, No. 48, St
Clair street, opposite the St. Clair Hotel, is
prepared to take any kind of photographs, as
good and as chppp as any perron in the place.
Somehow people do not know the value of a
friend’s likeness. They ofvn neglect taking a
photograph until It is too i**e, the flush of life
gone, the heaving breast motiouless, the spark
lingeye closed in death. Then they would give
anything for the living, breathing, pulsating
image. We think it is not only a pleasure but
a duty that people owe to themselves, their
friends, and their posterity, to secure the pho
tographs of all their friends when in the enjoy
ment of full life, so that when they are gone
others may still gaze upon their forms, and thus
call up many pleasing reminiscences. If you de
sire thus to remember your friends and to “se
cure the shadow ere the •BUbstahee fhde,” you
cannot go to a better place than to Mr. Dabb’s
establishment on St.. Clair street. Remember
No. 46; St. Glair street.

THE POST—PITTSBURGH. SATURDAY MORNING, MAT,2B,. 1864
U. S. 10-40 BONDS.
THJE&E BONDS ARE ISSUED un
der the Act of Congress of March Bth, 1864,
which provides that all Bonds issued nndnf this
Act SHALL BE REDEEMED IN COIN, at the
pleasure of the Government, at .any period not
less than ten nor more than forty years from their
■date, and until their redemption FIVE PER
CENT. INTEREST WILL BE PAID IN COIN,
on bonds of not over one hundred •dollars annu
ally, and on all other bonds semi-annually. The
interest is payable on the first days of March and
September In each year.
As these Bonds, by Act of Congress, are
Exempt from Municipal or State Taxation,
Their value la increased from one to three per
cent, per annum, according to the rate of tax lev
ies in various parts of the country.
At the present rates of premium on gold they
Over Eight Per Cent. Interest
In currency, and are of equal convenience as a
permanent or temporary investment.
It 1b believed that no securities offer so great
inducements to lenders as the various descrip
tions of U. S. Bonds. In all other forms of in
debtedness, the faith or ability of private par
ties or stock companiesor separate communities
only is pledged for payment, while fr»r the debts
of the United States, the whole property of the
country is holden to secure the payment of both
principal and interest in coin.
These Bonds may be subscribed for in sums
from $5O up to any maguitude, on the same
terms, and are thus made equally available to
the smallest lender and larg eat capitalist. They
can be converted into money at any moment,
and the holder will have the benefit of the inter
»'■ /
4he of the United States on
which interest is pay.ible in gold, on the 3d day
of March, 1861, was $768,905,000. The interest
on this debt for the coming fiscal year will be
$45,937,123, while the customs revenue in gold
for the current fiscal year, ending June 3o:h,
U’64. has been so far at the rate of over siuo,ooo,-
000 per annum.
It will be seen that even the present gold rev
enues of the Government are largely le excess
ol the wants of the Treasury lor the payment of
gold interest, while Uie recent increase of the
taiiffwill doubtless raise the annual receipts
from customs on the same amount of importa
tions to $150,000,000 per annum.

OVER 400 PRISONERS TAKEN
More Railroad Track Torn Up.
One Bay’s Forced 'March ' from
Great Enthusiasm in the Army.
Philadelphia, May 2.l—The En
quirer publishes the following dispatch;
South Side North Anna , near Jericho
Bridge , May 25—2 p. m.—The rebels
are in our front and prisoners have beep
taken during the last 21 hours from three
rebelj Generals, Ewell, Hill and Long
street. Over 400 prisoners were taken
from a brigade from the rebels by the
Penna. Reserves, under Gen. Crawford,
who made a charge on our extreme right,
after Warren had crossed the North
Anna, [on the road leading to Beaver
dam. Our troops have tom up and
completely destroyed nearly six miles of
the track on the Va. Central R. R. west
of Sexton s Junction. We are now but
one day’s forced march from Richmond,
in a fine open country. There is plenty
of good pasture for our horses but noth
ing for the men, except what has been
brought along. The' enthusiasm of our
army knows no bounds. The condition
of the rebels, judging from their wound
ed prisoners falling into our hands, is
very bad. Weather intensely hot.
The Battle on the North Anna..
Assault on the Enemy’s Works
Rebels Bayoneted in their Rifl* Pits
Night Attack of the Enemy Repulsed.
New York, May 27.— A Herald spe
cial gives the following account of the
struggle for Taylor’s bridge, over the
North Anna: When my last dispatch
was written, a considerable force of the
enemy were disputing our passage of the
North Anna. General Law's division of
Longstrect's Corps, was posted in
strong earthworks between Long creek
and the river, and seemed disposed to
hold Taylor’s brigade, at all hazards,
and poured a storm of shot and shell
from their batteiies, when General Bir
ney, with his division, advanced. Col
onels Pierce and Egan, with their bri
gades (the Ist and 2d,) made an assault
on the enemy’s works at 0 o’clock p. m.
of the 22d.
The riflemen of the enemy poured a
deadly fire into their ranks, but they
charged on the batteries. On the high
ground, a little to the left of the ridge
they scoured the open space in every
direction, tearing up the earth with
their whizzing missiles.
12*4 WOOO STUtET
The redoubt was carried at the point
of the bayonet, and a considerable num
ber of rebels were killed in their en
trenchments and 110 captured. This as- -
sault, which was made under the imme
diate direction of Gen. Birney, is con
sidered a very brilliant affaiT, and Gen.
Hancock wrote him a very congratula
tory letter.
The 3d and sth Michigan, the 86th and
124th New York, the 99th Pennsylva
nia, and the 17th Maine, suffered more
severely than any other regiments in
the division. The rebels when drived
from the redoubts and rifle pits, retreat
ed across the river,many of them swim
ing, the bridge being too much crowd
ed to admit of their crossing'/with as
much celerity as they desired.
The assault on Tayior’s Bridge,spann
ing the North Anna, was made without
loss by the 4th Maine. The bridge was
carried after a sharp skirmish, and the
rebels were driven from their position
on the opposite bank.
At eleven p. m. the enemy made k
sortie from his works, and endeavored
to retake the bridge, but after a sharp
engagement, lasting about twenty min
utes, were driven back.
At midnight they made another attack,
with much larger force, and drove our
men from the bridge, held it some l time,
and made several attempts to burn it,
but the 7th N. Y. heavy artillery coming
up, the rebels were forced to retire, and
the fire,was extinguished, and our troops
held the bridge undisturbed till morning.
New York, May 27.—A Herald cor
respondent says our losses on the 23d
and 24th do not exceed 5,000 in killed,
wounded and missing, while that of the
enemy amounts to that in killed and
w ounded, while we have 1,000 prisoners
At 7 o’clock a. m. of the 24th, Ge n.
Birney crossed the North Anna, at the
bridge, with his division, followed' by
Gen. Gibbon actj his division, and soon
alter by the balance of the corps.
New York, May 27. —A World spe
cial, dated 11 o’clock, a. m., 25th, ‘
(Wednesday,) says: Our entire army
is on the south side of the North-Anna
river. At 12 m. there was considerable
picket firing on our centre, but no flat
teries opened yet. The sth and 6th
corps advancing.

A Battle Probably Expected:
Philadelphia, May 27.— A special
dispatch to the Bulletin says, according
to an extra Washington Republican,
dated at 4 o’clock, Lee was in line of
battle this morning on the south bank of
the North Anna and that a battle was
probable to-day. n

A Lamentable State of Affairs
in Texas.
New York, May 27.—The Philadel
phia Inquirer's special gives the follow
ing account of the attack on the works
defending the Taylor Bridge, crossing
the North Anna, he says that no troops
could live under the fire from the rebel
guns, a direct assault from the front was
therefore out of the question. Our
troops were marched up in two columns,
a brigade on each side of a wide-interval
through which rebel shot and shell play
ed, tearing up earth fearfully. When
our troops got within a short distance,
like tigers they leaped upon their prey, ■
and with unloaded guns brought the
bayonet to bear upon the entrenched
enemy, killing and. capturing all who
did not escape. The movement was
watcheld by. Generals Hancock and Bir
ney, exposed to a.heavy shell fire. The
former expressed his admiration ip the
must enthusiastic terms.
- The Times' New Orleans correspon
dent says Gen. Jos. Hamilton haß ar
rived there and gives a lamentabla ac
count of the state of afihirs in Texas.
The withdrawal of a large force ■■ of our
troops from Texas will place the Union
ists in a painful position. They are al
ready in a frightful condition. Whole
families who a day or two since were
enjoying all the comfort of life, now
are reduced to beggary. The able-bodied
men are run off by rebel conscription and
their families left helpless and without
protection. -

Mutiny in 1 Fort Morgan.
LATEST FROM MEXICO.
Battle the French
and Mexicans
Cajiio, May 26.—The steamer Atlan
tic, Irom New -Orleans on the 21st, ar
rived at Memphis yesterday evening,
with 228 bales of cotton for St. Louis.
The Columbia, Havana and Geo. Crom
well wepe to have sailed for New York
on the 21st. The transport Caliawba
had arrived with the 26th Massachusetts
regiment aud Govfcmmeni stores. The
officers of the Atlantic report that Gen.
Bank 9, with a portion of his army, had
arrived in New Orleans, on the 21st. It
was not known whether any new move
ments were on foot.
in moving aerdss the country, on re
treat from Alexandria, Banks left Bed
river at Port De Russey, and struck for
Semmosport, where he crossed to Atch
afalaya, and then marched to Morgan
sea, on the Mississippi. A. J. Smith’s
command also marched to Semmesport,
and .theris i embarked on transports.
A naval officer* who. left Pensacola on
the 18th, says-a report’had just been re
ceived there that another mutiny had Oc
curred in the garrison l at Port Morgan,
Mdhile.V No particulars.
’•The New' Orleans' True Delta, of the
21st, has .the following. from- Mexico:
“The steamer 81. Mary’s arrived last
night* bringing one hundred and .fifty
refugees* and reports that a heavy battle:
had taken'place between the French and
Mexicans, 7,000 .strong, under General
Maegarette, on San Luis, in which the
French Were thoroughly, defeated This
intelligence, though of vast importance,
is doubted by many intelligent Mexi
cans in our city, for several reasons.
The Mexican Consul, we arc told, had
no intelligence of this victory, and he
usually receives the earliest intelligence.
These movements were known from-va
rious advices. Although General Mae
garette marched his troops with the in
tention of giving the enemy battle, yet
the distance to be accomplished was
three hundred miles over a burning
country Jn which there was no water,
was too great in the opinion of those fa
miliar with the country for human en-
Orleans. —The cotton market is
inactive, with no sales of importance;
low middling 81@82, middling 85@86.
There is nothing doing in sugar or mo
lasses, with a fair supply ottering, but
no disposition Bhown to operate.
Memphis.- —The cotton market is un
changed? the' absence 1 of stock limits
transactions, and all offering is readily
taken. Receipts since last report 100
bales. h

Johnston Planked af Ailatoona.
Chicago, May 27. —The Journal’s
special correspondent states that Sheri
man’s entire army resumed the march
f J°P} Kingston, Ga., Tuesday, and
flanked Johnston’s position at Ailatoona,
on- the JEutowah ri7er. This position
was in the mountain fastnesses, and was
considered very strong. This corres
pondent believes that Johnston does not
to fight, but that his troops are
being 1 transferred gradually to Generals
Lee and Beauregard.
Bepulged at Every Attack.
Baltimore, May 27.— A letter from
Befnnudai Hundred, dated Wednesday
says that the weather is very warm’
The enemy has made frequent attacks
ontour entrenchments, and been as often
defeated, always with heavy loss The
Gattnello gun, which throws two hun
dred shot per minute, was used with
texnble effect, against the rebels.
