THE GOVERNMENT LOAN
8200,000,000.
This loan Is authorised - by Act of Con
greiskof March Bth,./684, which provides for its
REDEMPTION IN COIN, at any period not
less than ten or more than forty years from its
date, at the pleasure of the Government,
Until its Redemption, five per cent. in
tercet la to be paid semi-annually IN COIN.
Its .Exemption from State or Local
Taxation adds iron one to three .per cent.
per annum in its value.
The 'Rate of Interest on this loan, although
but five per cent. In coin is as much greater iii
currency as the difference between the market
vales of currency and gold.
As a Rule, the five per cent. specie securi
ties of all solvent governments aro always par
or above, and eurrencynow funded in the Na
tional Loan, will be worth its face in gold, be
sides paying a regular and liberal percentage to
the holder.
No Securities offer so great induce
ment,, it la believed, as the various descrip
tions of U. S. Bonds. le ail other forms of in
debtednesa, the faith or ability of private parties
or stock companies or separate communities
only is pledged for payment, while for the debts
of the United States the whole property of the
countrysls holden to secure the payment of
both principal and interest in coin.
The Funded Debt of the United States
on which interest Is payable In gold, on the 3d
day of March, 1864. was *768,065,000 The
interest on this debt for the coming fiscal year
will be 645,988,12; while the customs revenue
in gold for the current fiscal year, ending Juno
30th - 1861, has been so far at the rate 'of over.
6100,000,000 per annum, an amount largely In
excess of the wants of the. Treasury for the pay
mentof gold interest.
These. Bonds may be subscribed for
Mamas from 650 up to any magnitude,
on the llama terms, and are thus matte equally
available to the smallest lender and the largest
capitalist. They can be conveithd into money
at any moment, and the holder will have the
benefit of the interest.
The authorized Amount of this loan is
Two tiondre4 Million Dollars. The amount of
zulhoriptlons reported to the Treasumat Wash

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
DAY MORNING, JUNE 23, t 864
Criminal Court.
This court converted oh Monday morning at
10 o'clock, when ajury that had been out since
Friday brought in a verdict against Edward
O'Donnell and °harlot O'Donn el charged with
assault and battery, of guilly.
The next case taken up was a charge of
highway robbery, preferred by a Mr. Renshaw
against Martin Murphy and James Slatterly.
It appeared from the evidence that on last
New Year's night the parties named met at the
Bull's Read Tavern, on Second street,kept then
by a man named Spencer. Slatterly got into a
quarrel with some Michigan soldiers who would
have demolished him had it not been for the
landlord and his brother-in-law, Mr. Murphy.
The soldiers left and Stetter ly alleged that Ren
shaw had called him some very ugly names and
wanted to tight. The landlord put all of them
out and closed the docir, as it was after midnight
and late enough to shut up. All three were in
toxicated and got into a fight out side, Slatter
ly knocking Renshaw down and kicking him
till he was insensible. A gold watch worth a
hundred dollars was missed as soon as Renshaw
came to his senses, which was afterwards found
in the possession of Slatterly. There being
nothing against Mr. Murphy to justify the
charge of Robery, he was acquitted and Slat
terly plead guilty before the jury retired. When
the latter was remanded to prison, his aged
Mother, who had been listening to the trial
burst out into an expression of feeling and sym
pathy for her poor boy, which we can but feebly
describe, and which none but a food and affec.
tionate mother can realize, in all probability
he was her only hope and support, and the idea
of his being guilty of an offense of this maitre
almost broke the poor aged woman's heart.
Slatterly has not yet been sentenced.
IGlorious Udelllgessoo.—tile clip the lot
lowing from the Erie Ob.es - ver, which besides
containing a great deal of good sense is quite
complimentary towards our city:
We have the pleasure of .announcing to the
public the completion of a direct railroad con-
F notion between this city anti Pittsburgh. (in
We dnesdity of laat week the last track was laid
in the vicinity of New Castle necessary to com
plete the confliction, and at 12 o'clock Cl the
same day a train of cars from Erie met one at
that place from Pittsburgh. The event If as
hailed with great re s joilbig by the railroad
workmen, and citizens, sin the papers of New
Castle are in raptures over the opportunity a:-
forded them of obtaining an outlet to the two
leading cities of Western PC l l l : l B.3lVittlitl. We
would not disguise out own grayitication and
that of the people of Erie over this important
fact—the first link iu the chain of eirtunstances
which we all believe is destined to revive the
trade of our community, and start our city for
ward with an impetus that will soon make it
one of the moat promising on the lakes. The
Erie & Pittsburgh railroad him always been a
favorite enterprise of ifra, and —have louked
forward for its completion with alrinterest only
equalled by those who are more immediately
interested In its prosperity. It traverses one of
the most fertile sections of the State—a section
which abounds to mineral and agricultural
wealth—and managed, as it certainly will be, in
a spirit proportionate to its importance, we
cannot be mistaken In our anticipations of Its
benefits to this city and tne people living along
its line.
To Wm. L. Scott, Esq., the contractor in
charge is mainly due the credit for the early '
opening of thin road. ile has labored with an
Indefatigable energy, and is entitled to the
praise of the community. The requirements of
the law demanded that the last rail nhould be ,
laid by the 25th inst.. (to-day) hut he determin
ed to be ahead o. time, and, as he usually does I ,
with everything he tindertakes, succeeded.
Thor Wheeling Palr.—This day the grim'
Fait will open at Wheel Luz. The character and
object of the Fair is thus stated by the Wheel
ing Daily Regisler:
This reittval le intended to be a comprehen
sive series of all the most rational enjoyments

Unties. Nichols, the man who snot
Sullivan, and whom we noticed yesrerday, was
held to answer in the sum of fifteen hundred
dollars. The case is a serious one though it is
thought that Sullivan the injured man may re
cover. Sullivan was not stealing strawberries
as noticed yesterday, but had taken sundry ar.
tidies from a man named Leasure—a watch and
a razor, and perhaps other articles. Leasure
raised the alarm and Nichols who was comingto
market assisted him in capturing two men, one
named Goehring and the other Sullivan. Leas
ure has since preferred charges against., them
both for the larceny of thewatch, razes, a brace
let and twenty dollars in greenbacks. (loehr
ing has also been arrested.
Pittsburgh and Cannellrvine H. It.—
Thate is everkhope that this road will yet be
completed to Cumberland and Open up a direct
communisation with Ileitis:Lore. The stock
holders have held several meetings lately on the
(mull= of Ha extension, aid they have finally
agTeil,to proceed to finish the road. Several
sections have 'already been let and there is no
doubt that more of these will be given out and
that the road will soon be completed. :The ad
vantages of the completion of this road to tile
citizens of Pittsburgh, as well as to the stock
holders tnemselves; is almostincalculable,svhlle
no injury could accrue to any other line, each
having business equal to its utmost capacity.
Oil City.—Notice hasheen given fo the stock
holders of tho Pennsylvania and Erie Railroad
Company, that there will be a meeting held to
consider a resolution relative to the coati-ca
tion of a Branch Road to the Perms. oil regions.
The great want of Oil city is a railroad commu
nicating with some other line leading to the
Eastern cities. The contrivance cl the Alleghe
ny valley railroad would undoubtedly form a
cheap and convenient outlet for the productions
of that city. We have often looked for a move
ment In that direction.

Proceedings of Connells.—We have not
room for all the proceedings of Convene, but
will publish them In to -morrow's paper. The
i most Important proceedings in Common Coon
ell, was a resolution authorizing the Finance
Committee to take the case of theca} , of Pitts
burgh against the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany to the Supreme Court, and also one to re
quest his Excellency Governor Curtin to with
ho:.l his signature from an act passed in the
Legislature last winter,to repeal the charter of
the Counellsville Railroad Company.
An ordinance was concurred in from Select
Council granting the Fort Wayne & Chicago

Allegheny wharf for the consideration of 44,40n0.
Also to prevent coke ovens within the city lim
its. Also a claim granted to Anderson & Co. fur

years. The patties ware hound over to appear
TO court.
A Air..Tolee made ihformation against a Airs.
Smith and her si.ster for an assault and battery,
which remitted from n disititte about sinking a

Going it Strong.—on Sunday et ening
there was a row on the Monongahela wharf
and officer Lowe attempted to arrest one of the
offenders when he was caught by another. In
attempting to arrest him, a third interfered,
and finally more gathered, when some of the
firemen, belonging to the Duquesne Company,
assisted the otticer and three of the lads were
brought before the Mayor and tined heavily for
their misconduct.
. _
Ind Irina —Governor Norton, of the State of
Indiana, has addressed a memorial to Congress
in regard to the recruits of regiments and bat
tery enlistments, made prior to then. It appears
that it WRS the understanding that men re
cruited would only have to serve out the time of
the regiment, hot now the government holds
them for three years trout the date of their en
listments as recruits. It is sot likely that Coll•
gyess will act in the matter.
The Falr.—A large number of bids were
received for the buildings at the Sanitary Fair
N:sts.rd.,. the rune for re
ceh log proposals expired. The result, it is said
will be made known In a day or two. There
is a t ery large amount of lumber in these build
ings and the damage, none by the use it has been
employed In, is not t cry great. It will be dry
at least which is a good quality in lumber.
The Highest Mclder.—We understand
that the different weigh-s.iftles of the city will
be rented out, on the sth day of next month, to
the highest bidder. They are said to he in a di
lapidated condition and it would no doubt pay
the city better to put them into the hands of in
dividuile at a certain stated rent with the 1.111-
derdtnucling that they be kept in good repair.
Lost—Somewhere between Ml'lee' Hotel,
Penn street, below St. Clair, and the Diamond
ou Saturday evening last about seven o'clock,
one new black dress coat,and one pair newdress
pants ; also a carpet hag containing several
shirt;. Any person leaving information at this
Mike concerning the above, will greatly oblige
the xubacriber. 13. I).
Low Witter.—The water in the rivers is
rely low just now. Bo much so, Indeed, as to
#unpend transportation altogether except where
there in Blackwater. In consequence of this
business at the wharf is exceedingly dull. We
are in hopes that a henry rain may yet fall he
fore long which will raise the waters to a navi
gable height.
Young Thieves.—There is a gang of young
bnyi In this city 'Omit twenty or thirty in num
ber who aro combined together to steal and con
ceal goods. They are styled the "Forty Thieves
Society," and have regular officers appointed.
One of them his made some revelations which
may lead to the detection of all of them. They
would all be better in the House of Refuge.
Swine.—The number of iivvine running at
large in our city, particularly in the suburbs
has become a nuisance so great as to invite the
attention of the city fathers who are resolved to
resort to stringent measures in order to relieve
the people of this annoyance.
Walls Again.—A. man named John Walls
was brought before the Mayor yesterday charg
ed wirh selling liquor on Sunday, keeping a dis
orderly house and assault and battery. He has
enough to answer for in one day.
Cresson Springs.—The Fourth of July le
to be celebrated at Cresson Springs on the top
of the Allegheny mountain, by sundry visitors,
residents and others. Great preparations have
been made and tickets of invitation have been
circulated in order to secure a large attendance.
There is ['cermet on earth more suitable for the
celebration of this day than the Mountain. The
scenery Is delightfuL The clear, pure water is
suing from the crystal fountains, is abundant;
the groves ate deeply shaded and as cool as a
cave; railroad facilities to and from the place
are excellent; and the people are patriotic and
participate on an ocoasion like this kind with
great willingness and there is ample space to
accommodate any number of persons, as the
boundaries of the freest has not been defined by
any prescribed limits We expect to hear of
quite a jolly meeting of friends and acquaintan
ces at these springs on the Fourth. Whether
the invitation is special or general we did not
learn, but &Hedge it lea select celebration.
Theatre—Benefit of Mr. Hurry Lewis.
This gentleman takes his annual benefit at the
theatre this evening, upon which occasion an
unusual bill of attraction is offered. Among
those who tender their service is Ettie Hender
son, whose superior talents as an actress is well

vicinity. This lady appears in her celebrated
sfracter of the "French Spy" a part which
she has acquired great celebrity both in this
country and in Europe. Mr. Lewis is well
known as our very active stage manager, and a
gentleman well known as an actor and stage
manager for the last thirty years, from Maine to
California. Truly a veteran itt..he'in the pro
fession, and his claims upon the theatre-going
public are mush greater than many who has ap
peared upon our stage for years. Let It be rec
ollected the beautiful sensation drama of the
"Colleen Hawn" will be presented for the last
time. Miss Lizzie La Orange, the beautiful'

NEW Yonx, Tranzue spa
cial, dated Army of the Fetomac, Satur
day, June 25th, a. m., says: Dnring two
hours yesterday (Friday) morning, fro&
six to eight o'clock, the earth trembled
to the thunders of more than a hundred
cannon. "Baldy Smith" was attacked.
It will be remembered that he holds the
left (right?) to the Appomattox, Within
less than a mile of the city. His! line
stretches along the plain at right angles
wiih the river, while the rebels have un
disturbed possession of the bank rippo
site, and a long distance in his rear. ' On
that bank they suddenly uncovered Sixty
guns, exposing the 18th corps to an enfi
lading fire and a reverse fit e. At length
the enemy attacked with musketry as
well as cannon. They very foolishly mov
ed their line upon our works. It has since
been ascertained to have been HaygoOd's
brigade of Hoke's division. The repulse
was the work of but a few momenta !and.
was complete. One hundred and s ixty
five prisoners fell into our hands. By a
strategic movement they were drawn.
into our rifle-pits, andthese being Can
nonaded in the rear ley covered works,
the rebels were obliged to surrender.,

morning Generals Longstreet and Hill
it is ascertained,moved toward the Wel
don road,having vacated their entrench
ments in our front. Dining a Niel
skirmish this morning a few prisoners
were taken from which it appeared that
Beauregard's main army is now cover
ing Petersburg while Gen. Lee's forces
are moving to our left, with what se
sign remains yet to be seen. •A rebel
deserter who came in this morning,
states that our recent shelling of Peters
burg by Birney's artillery, was very
disastrous. lie acids that the rebels are
marching and counter-marching to
guard against our expected attcak.

Atlanta papers of a week ago, state that
the bridge over the Chattahoochie to
Roswell is two strongly fortified, and
that the nearest the Yankees have Leen
to Rosswell, is twenty miles north cast

been extended eastward, and the main
body of the army moved to the vicinity

An Attack on Our Pickets
WASHINGTON, June 27.—The steamer
Highland Light arrived here from City
Point, which place she left on yesterday,
morning, and brought up the Eighth
Ohio volunteers, commanded by Major
Winslow, whose term is out. The regi
ment numbers IM officers and men.
There has been no very heavy fighting
within the past few clays, but skirmish
es are kept np all along the line
and cannonading at times' is heavy.
Firing was heard abont 5 miles, from
Bermuda Hundred on Saturday, where
Gen. Butler'is intrenching. The rebels
made an attack' on Butler's intrench
ments, but did'nt succeed in effecting
anything, and they were di iven off. On
Saturday the rebels attacked Sheridan's
rear at Wilcox Landing and captured a
few of his men. A brigade of infantry
was at once despatched to protect Sher-
Tidan's rear and the rebels were kept
back, and Sheridan made for the James
river, crossing it successfully with his
entire train. The railroad is advanced 4
milesfrom City Point towards Petersburg.
Yesterday heavy firing was heard in the
direction of Petersburg. On Saturday
night the rebels - made an attack on
our pickets at about the centre of the
line as they were being relieved, but
*ere repulsed with little or no loss to us.
On the heights beyond Petersburg, the
rebels have an eighteen gun battery
bearingupon the centre or our lines in
front of that place. This battery has
been very troublesbme, so far has prov
ed too heavy for any artillery, that we
have brought against it.
Accident on the Erie Railroad
Operations of General Foster
NEW YORK, June 27.—The Commer
cial says : We understand that an ac
cident occurred at an early hour this
morning on the Frie railroad, caused by
the giving way of one of the rails,
throwing the entire train off the track
and causing the death of a number of
persons as well as injuring many of the
passengers on the train. Owing to the
distance from New York at which the
accident occurred no definite particulars
have been received.
The Commercial's army letter of the
25th, says Fosters force of the 10th corps
has probably ere this attacked Chapins
Bluff and perhaps captured it. This
would permit the erection of strong
counter works to operate against Fort
Darling. Heavy lines of intrenchments
is concentrating for a sweeping flv. on
Drury's Bluff, which is the evidera de
sign of Grant.
