IT does not seem to be as generally borne in
mind as it should be that a draft fortroops will
be made udder the nationallaws oh the ensuing
Ist of July to meetthe pressing wants of our
armies in the field. This factwaimade known
some time since, but appears tohave been over
shadowed 'by more e.lciting . affairs,. Lest it
should be forgotten and lost sight of the Provost
Marshal General has sent the following tele
graphic dispatch to his assistants throughout
the country :
• ' WASHINGTON, May 19.1864.
To Major C. C. Gilbert, A. A. P. M. Gen.,
Philadelphia :--Conferwith your State authori
ties and endeavor to get the different districts
tiad sub-districts to commence raising men at
once, with a view to the new call referred to in
dispatch of yesterday from Secretary of War to
Dix. It will be greatly to the advantage
or tire different towns, counties, &c., to save
time by commencing immediately on assumed
%MAIL Spare no efforts to complete the revi
sion of the enrolment at the earliest possible
day. The exact new quotas will be based upbn
it I want it reported to by the 10th of June.
JAMES B. FRY, Pro. Mar. Gen.
THE LNLAND TELEGRAPH LINE. , --Secretary
S anton has addressed a letter to the General
Superintendent of. the Inland Telegraph Com
pany, announcing that the investigation of the
.War .14partment relieves the company - of all
suspicilEt from being concerned in the trans
inissinn or publication of the recent proclama
tion forgery. The letter concludes by referring
to the satisfactory arrangement trade with the
Company by the War Department, and the Sec
retary hopes the arrangement will do much to
wards inspiring the public{ willta just confiden
in the company's lines and the loyalty, p
deuce and discretion of 'itt7 management. We
trust thathenceforthlhis line will guard against
being made use of to eirculate'sensation reports.
It has been distinguikhed heretofore for unreli
ability, and doubtless, theqecklessness of is
managers or operators has' involved it in the
lute difficulty with the government. .
FrGOV.C,IIRTLN will open, iu person, the great
Sanitary Fairs to be held, respectively in Phil
adelphia and Pittsburg. The preparations for
these great enterprises in aid of the soldiers,
are on the most magnificent and extensive
scale. , That of Philadelphia, it is claimed, will
exceed any yet held in this country, and equal
those ever held for any purpose in the world.—
The buildings now being erected, are of a di
mension capable of holding the structures lately
used. for the fair hekfin New York, and still
leave room for the transaction of an extensive
. business. We anticipate a large profit to be
derived from these two great fairs, as when the
people of Pennsylvania undertake to do any
thing it is with liberality and completeness.
SUMMARY OF WAR-NEWS.
—Now thut Hunter tuts been appointed to the
command in the - Shenandoah Valley, he will,
doubtless, be reinforced, and press forward
vigorously.
—There are indisputable bayonet wounds in
the Lincoln Hospital, many of the Rebels there
showing frightful hurts from this rarely used
,weapon
—TheNorth Carolina Times of the 21st, states
that the Rebels in Little Washington had set
fire to that town on the 11th, destroying all but
about tweiity houses. They also rpbbed all the
women and children in the place.
—Gen. Canby announces that Gen. Banks'
army had safely reached Semmsport in better
-- Condition than was expected, and will soon be
ready 'to resume offensivtoperations. Semms
port is on the Red river, near its confluence
with the Mississippi.
-Gen. Kilpatrick, in a despatch tohis family
at:Buttermilk Falls, New York, says that al
though his wounds are slight, they will compel
him to give up' his command. He,was wound
ed neat Summerville, Ga., while :leading a ca
valry charge in the rear of Johnston's army.
—Col. Mott, of the 149th Ohio, and many
other officers of rank were killed, and the grea
ter part of our troops, of which there were 500,
were slaughtered on board the steamer City
Belle at the time she was captured and burned
by the rebels, thirty miles below Alexandria, in
the early part of the month.
-The result of Gen. Crook's great raid is
described by_an eye-witness as being very suc
cessful. The Virginia and East Tennessee
Railroad be has broken up so thoroughly as to
render it useless for the next three mouths.—
He has marched through the entire Department
of Sonth-western Virginia, and has captured a
large number of prisoners—among them Gen.
Jenkins and Col. Smith—and is now slowly fall
ing back to a new base to await an opportunity
for further operations.
—The attack upon Fort Sumter, which our
latest previous-advices announced to have been
commenced, we leain by a more recent arrival
is continuing prosperously. The now parapet,
constructed by the rebels during the intermis
sion of hostilities, has been knocked down, and
lies in the water. Two casemates have been
destroyed, and other damage inflicted. At the
same time Fort Moultrie has suffered the demo
'Mon of a portion of its southern face. The at
tack continued when the steamer bringing the
news left, and a new hope begins to be enter
tained that the'plaee may be destroyed.
POLITICAL INTELLIGENCE.
—Gen. Richard Oglesby has been nominated
as the ljnistin candidate for Governor of Ill
inois. - - -
—The New York ;Union State. Convention
„bag elected delegates to Baltimore in favor of
• i the re-nomination of President Lincoln.
Union men of Cambria county have
Oloakinated A. A. Barker for Congress, Hon.
Evan Roberts for Assembly, and F. AL Fiona
gin for Sheriff.
..—Job.o B. Packer and Geo. Hergner have
been selected as Delegates to the Baltimore
Convention by Dauphin district, with in
strUctions in favorer Lincoln.
'--:The 'Union State Convention of Ohio nom
inated W. .Smith for Secretary of State, Col.
17m. G. giebardson for Attorney General f eol.
ikluseo Palley tor Controller, aad Philip Herring
orthe Board of Public Works. A Lincoln del
egation was chosen - to Baltitnore.
-7-The Republican Union Stpto Convention.
of Vermont has made the following nomination
for'State officers : For Governor, Hon. J. G.
Smith ; :for Lieutenant Governor, Hon. P. Dil-
lingharn ; for Treasnaer, Hon. J. B. Page. Del&
gates at large to Baltimore were chosen. Presi
dent Lincoln's renomination was recommended.
—The Perry Freenian, speaking of the divis
ion of Senatorial. honors in its district, says—
"We think, Centre has had a:Senator also since
1854, _but can't novi. name him; but we think
his name Was' Mr. Earria." Dr. Harris was
elected to the Senate es a Whig in the Centte
district in 1846, most 'unexpectedly to himself]
and the "rest of mankind:" In 1855 Hon..
Andrew Gregg, uncle of Gov. Curtin, of Centre,
was elected to the Senate in the Centre, Clin
ton, Lycoming and Sullivan district, over Mr.
A. J. Deitrich, and re-elected over the same
competitor in 1858.
MORTON'S GOLD PENS are now sold at the
same prices as before the commencement of thawar.
This is entirely owing to the manufacturer's im-
Provementr in machinery, his present large Retail
business and Cash-in-Advance system; for, until he
commenced advertising, his business was done on
Credit, and strictly with the trade.
The Morton Gold Pens • aie the only ones sold at
old prices, as the. makers of all other Gold Pens
charge the Premium on Gold, Government Tax, .4c.
but Morton has in no case changed his prices, whole
sale or retail.
Of the great numbers sent by mail to all parts e
the world during the past fcw , ..years, not ono in a
thousand has failed to reach its destination in safe
ty, showing that the Mbrton Gold Pen can be ob
tained by any one; in every part of the world, at the
same price, postageonly excepted.-
Reader, you can have ttenduring, always ready,
anti reliable Gold - Pen, exactly adapted to you'
ha k• • -style Of writing, which will do yoUr wri
ting vastly cheaper than steel Pens; and at the pre
sent almost universal High-Presture Price of ev
ery thing, you can have a Morton Gold Pen cheaper
in proportion to' the labor spent upon it and mate
rial. used, than any other Gold Pen in the world.• It
you tient one, call on A. Morriotc, No. 25 Maiden
