GOSSIP WITH OCR FHIENDS.—WhO but one
that Undertakes to write for a newspaper can ap.
piriate the up-bill' Work of setting down to scrib
ble, when the mind is a blank, and squeeze the
scribe ever so bard, the scribble refuses to mum.
There is no time to lose if the article (defiffite%or
indefinite) is to go into the next paper, it must be.
penned on the instant or not at all. ,The devil
will have his duo, so the unfortunate, harrassed
editor takes his bad pen, dips into the thick ink,
and upon loose scraps of waste paper, writes
something, be knows and caret' not what, reflect
ing the character of pen, ink and paper. The
past week has been a gloomy one. The country
at large seemed averse to resume work until our
loved President had been buried. It seemed as
tliOugh.the funeral train was passing in front of.
each man's house, es though the bands were play
ing dead marches under every window ; and the
mourning bridges, the cmped arms, and the draped
buildings forbade the usual routine of life. But
the body of the nation's martyr now rests in its
honor,. d ! grave, while the memory of the great and
good, man is enshrined in the hearts of the Amer
man people; and now with a new purpose, and
with a purified zeal, busineb will doubtleks re
vive during the coming week.
It is remarkable how patriotic every one is now,
compared with_lbe — time previous to Lee's sur
render. It is hard to find any officer who feels
in his boots that his country can afford to dispense
With' his services. I . hear many talk though they
would like to emigrate .to Mexico or California,
or anywhere South. Possibly they may meet
there Mr. Jefferson Davis, late of Richmond. I
saw Col. M'Clure's-advertisement, offering a re
ward for " Smith," who burned his house ; and I
at once took measures to " make the money." I
consulted the New York city directory to see if
there were any Smiths registered; thinking per
haps he might be with some, of his relations. I
found several pages of that name, and intend com
mencing my search next Monday. It may "take
me all summer," hut I shall report from time to
_time. It will be expensive, and I hope to receive
small some of money from time to time to aid me
in my undertaking. Should I succeed, I will tel
egraph at once, so that Surrit may haven public
teeeption by our ladies when I bring him up
" 0 chivalry ! thy name is ' SMITH "-
Capt. WM. H. KNIGHT reached his,home in
Philadelphia, last week, on crutches, with five
bullet holes through his legs. Strange that he
should have passed unscathed through the (tar
Years of almost constant fighting, and then in the
very last battle to be flanked „by a minis ball.
Phil. Sheridan has much to answer for. lam
glad to report the Captain convalescing rapidly.
Was pleased to meet Capt. JAS. R. GILMORE,
direct from Hilton Head. His stories about
Uncle Billy Sherman, Savannah, Fort Sumter,
Charleston and the darkies are well worth listen
jag to.
Spring has fairly opened in the city. The grass
in the public parks is green and luxuriant, most
of the trees are covered with leaves, and the ca
nary birds and parrots are quite lively. In the
markets is r; pleasant display of spinach, lettuce"-
asparagus, little onions and strawberries; and oc
casionally one can see a dog with his tongue hang
ing out. We have had charming weather, inter
spersed with less rain and chilliness than usual.
A Community of frogs have lust opened a concert
saloon near my room; and their music is pleasant
• until toward bedtime. Children and cats now
play alfresco; spring clothing is sported by male
and female, and the ice dealers are, quarreling
with their customers.. It is full spring.
NEW YORK, May 6, 1565.
TIRE CBTTLE Law.—We have•receired many
inquiries and some complaints in reference to the
Drorishins of the new law prohibiting cattle, hor
ses; sheep and swine from running at la-ge in this
county. The law is widely misunderstood. It is
not an essential departure from the principle of
the. law thathas been iu existence for many'years ;
but it differs ,in its details of execution. It has
been the law of all the leading agricultural coda
tie's for several years past, and no community
that has tried it would be without it. Of ctiurbe
there are men who lore to grumble, and if their
way to heaven was smoothed by any new plan,
they would grumble still. There are others who
complain because it denies them the right to sub.
gist their stock on their neighbors, regardless of
the loss inflicted thereby ; and it is possible that
there are some who misunderstand the law and
itrroperations.
Stock at large are the common pests and foes
of successful and thrifty agriculture. They are a
curseto owners and neighbors. ' They are illy fed.
and pooch- repay the trouble and - necessary ex
pense their owners must Incur- for them. and as
a rule they destroy their full value for farmers
each year. There is not a cow in or abobt Cham
bersburg that forages on the streets and wanders
around the skirts of the town,.that has not cost
the farmers of the vicinity more than the worth
of, her head each summer season. If we bad
bobght-and given away all the tewn cows four
years ago which hitherto have been turned out
every morning to hunt l their food, and thus secur
ed immunity from their depredations, we should
have made'money by the operation, and such is
the experience, to a greater or less degree of every
farmer- in this neighborhood. We don't make
fences to protect ouFerops froth our own stock,
for it is not allowed to go at large; but we have
that luxury to guard against the stock' of our
neighbors, and up to this time have found no fence
maker so skilful as to protect grounds securely
from their depredations. Hunger knows no law
in men or brutes, and farmeri find their greatest
trouble usually in Baring their crops from a few
starved cattle which invariably defy all fences
nod lead droves with them to the work cit des
truction. .
It is wrong in principle and in policy to allow
stock to wander at will on the public highways.
• We have seen the lives of more than an hundred
people periled a score of times by cattle upon rail
roads. Such roads cannot be closed'agronst them
as the necessities of the public require crossings,
and every-vile should be prObibted, under Revere
penalties, from thus endangering the lives and limbs
of passengers. It is equally pernicious in principle.
No man has a right to turn his cattle out to forage
upon his neighbors any more than he has to turn
his children out•before breakfast and tell them to
steal their food. Even• owners of property are
not permitted to use it in their dwn enjoyment of
it so as to do injury to'their neighbors, and there
is no dictate of policy or justice that mart - ants
constant peril and frequent damage to farmers by
stock running at large.
.•
The lagis far from being oppressive. It does
not, as some have represented, prevent the pas
turing of cattle in the mountains, as is the habit -
of many people in their vicinity. It does, how
ever, require an obviously just and proper condi
tion precedent to that. The consent of the own
, er of the lands to be pastured is necessary, just
as it always was, and the risk is then accepted
by the proper person to be consulted. The same
rule applies everywhere. Any farmer may eon
sent that steel; shall run at large on his premises,
and the penalties of the law are obviated. We
• presume that in some sections the evil is not so
grave as in others, and in such loCalities the law
will effeet-little or no change; but it would be
best for our agricultural interests , that its provis
ions should - be enforced. It will be advantageous
to all classes. Men will be amazed to find how
che.aply_theycatekeep a cow honestly and well,
when they find that they, cannot let them have
fasts and feasts as they may happen to plunder
the neighboring farms. We feed all our cattle
from this time until after harvest front the lawn
about our house; and feed them well—mneh bet
fer than if they were pastured. It takes less la
bor than it would require to hunt the wandering
stock ever day, and they are regularly fed, reg
ularly milked, and with little cost to us and none
to out: neighbors. • •
THE BR EAK ING UP OF OCR AR3M—The
great volunteer army of the Union is in progress
of disruption. The old Army of the Potomac has
already ceased to exist as a unitary body, and the
ranks of its various corps are in progress of de
pletion. .The old army of Sherman is terminating
its long battle march, which began at Atlanta
one year ago, by marching into Virginia, where
in a short time its body will be regularly dissol
ved. All over the land—in the hospitals, at the
recruiting rendezvous, and in the camps—soldiers
are receiving, honorable discharges from the err
vice in which they have done such noble and ef
fective work. We suppose the month of May
will not •hase passed before our army will be re
duced to onaquarter of the strength at which it
has been maintained during the last three years.
It is an immence work that this American Vol
unteer Army' has achieved. Immense, suffering'
they have borne; sublime heroism they have ex-,
Whited. 'immortal honors they have won. They
return to their homes with the grand conscious
ness that they have effected their work, that they
have crushed the rebellion, saved the Union, and
won for themselves and fbr.,us, a country.,
The army will be resolved into the great body
of the citizens of the republic. Foreign critics—
ignorant of America and the character of its pea
ple and its army—have often told us what a dan
gerous body this army Would be to the country
at if ever it - achieved victory in the South.
We knew this to be nonsense ; and now we will
show its falsehood to the world. The men who
left their farms, their workemps, their stores
and their offices to don the army blue and shoul
der the musket, will now doff their military cos
tume and return to the peaceful avocations of
civil life—never again to take up arms, unless
their country is again menaced, when they will
do it with an alacrity equal to that they have al
ready exhibited. We welcome home, our brave
soldiers. • Let their country receive them with
pride and gratitude, and let every
, ono do all in
his power to give them place and practical aid iu
the pursuits and professions which they may de
sire to enter.
TH - P.. VANDAL GILaIOR.—Capt. G. W. Fenn
of the 201st Pa. Vols., who was for some time a
prisoner in the hands of the rebels, gives the fol.
lowing account of the free-hooter Gill - nor in the
Harrisburg Telegraph. He says:
"On the March from Monrefleld to Harrisonburg.
while a prisoner, I was held in charge by a detachment of
oil's men, and - we stopped over one night at a house on
the mountain, about twelve miles from Moorefleld, the tic.
ewtant of which is a strong Union mart:, When not too
closely watched by the guard he told tar of his love for
the old flag and his devotion to the Government of the Uni

ilispersed or surrendered. are now at atop about three
miles from that place, and had been three for a longtime,
being unarmed, dismounted and without a chief, the Major

in Fort Warren, Boston Harbor, a prisoner of war. This.
old man Informed me that Major Gilmor frequently stop
ped at his house, that behad staid there night after night,
shertly after returniugfrom the Chamber'riberg raid, ;mil
had repeatedly boasted that he bed fired the latter place,
nose ling, with all-the gusto of a coward and an ineendiarv,
that but for him that d—d Yankee city would never hat . ,
been destroy ed, and alleging that "he put the torch to
the court house in person," that "some of the officers were
chicken-hearted about it. but be had no scruples and in
sisted on it being Lanai." In lot he claimed the entire
credit of that hellish piece of business. This man was
fully sustained in his asseraotts by his wife. sons and a
daughter, who especially is an intelligent woniaaard ful
ly in sympathy with the old dag. Gather's battalion were
then running around loose, marartilmg , and robbing, and
were most heartily detelsted hysievery citizen, If Major
G. is not in our hands at present, and the authorities are
io earnest in thelFilesire to mete out to him by civil law
that punishment Ms infamies sic richly deserve. I have no
doubt that for a proper reward loyal Virginian would be
glad (o hunt him down and dellVer him over. The old
man's name I have and I can cite his Masi:ions corr.sitiy
to any One. I could add much MOT.. no to the .1110 , itle, of
that same man and his gang, but will nut take up your

INTEIMEN'T OF PRESIDENT LINCOLN
SPP..LNGFIELD, 111., May B,lB6s.—About noon
the remains of President Lincoln were brought
From the State Hbuse, and placed in the hearse.
The funeral procession was under Majot-General
Hooker, Marshal-in-chief, and Brigadier-Generals
Cook and Oaks. The military and firemen ap
peared finely, and the guard of honor was the
same as during the entire route. The procession,
including the Governors of seven States, mew
bers of Congress, State uud municipal authorities,
delegations from adjo ring States, Free Masons,
Odd Fellows and citizens ; including colored per
sons, arrived at Oak Ridge Cemetery at one
o'clock. On the lift of the vault in which the re
mains were deposited immediately on their arri
val was a platform, on which singers and an in
strumental band perforded appropriate music.
On the right was the speaker's stand.
The-vault is at the foot of a knoll, in a beauti
ful part of the ground, which contains forest trees
of all kinds. It has a doric gable resting on pil
asters. The maih wall being rustic in style. lhe
vault is fifteen feet high, and about the same in
width, with semicircular wings of brick project
ing from the hill side. The material is limestone,
procured at Joliet, Illinois. Directly inside of
the ponderous doors is an iron grating. The in
terior walls are covered with black velvet, dot
ted with .rvergreens. In the centre of the velvet
is a foundation of brick-work, capped with a mar
ble slab, on which the coffin rests. The front of
the vault is trimmed with evergreen. -
The dead march in Saul was sung, accompanied
by the band, as the remains were deposited.' Thou
sands of persons assembled at the cemetery before
the arrival of the procession, and the scene was
one of most intense solemnity. The religious ex
ercises were commenced by the singing of a dirge.
Then followed the reading of appropriate portions
of Scripture and a prayer. After a hymn sung by
the choir, the Rev. Mr. Hebbans read the last in.
an geral of President Lincoln. Another dirge was
sung by the choir, when Bishop Sinpsen delivered
a funeral address, which was in the highest degree
solemn and patriotic, and portions of it were ap
plauded. Another dirge and a hymn followed,
when the benediction wps . pronounced by theßev.
Dr. Gurley. The procession then reformed and
returned to the city. -
Our mournful duty of escorting the mortal re
mains of Abraham Lincoln hither is performed.
We have seen them deposited in the tomb. Be
reaved friends, with subdued and grief-stricken

REWARDS FOR ILEADISO TRAITORS
President Johnson has issued the following
proclamation offering rewards for the apprehen
sion of Jeff. Davis and other rebel l‘caders, who
it seems are implicated in the conspiracy for the
itsgassination of President Lincoln :
By the President of the United Stater of America,
A PROCLAMATION.
WHEREkS, It appears from evidence in the-
Bureau of Military Justice that the atrocious mur
der of the late President, Abraham Lincoln, and
the attempted assassination of the Honorable Wm.
H. Seward, Secretary of State, were incited, con
certed 'and procured by and between Jeffer s o n
Davis. late of Richmond, Va., and Jacob Thomp
son, Clement C. Clay, Beverly Tucker, Geo. N.
Sanders, Win. C. Cleary and other rebels and
traitors against the Government of the United
States harbored in Canada,
Now, therefore, I, ANDREW JOHNSON, Pr e gi:
dent of the United States, do offer and promise
for the arrest of the said persons or either of them,
within the limits of the United States, so that
they can be brought to trial, the following re
wards :
One hundred thousand dollars reward for the
arrest of Jefferson Davis.
Twenty-five thousand dollars for the arrest of
Clement C. Clay:
Twenty-five thousand dollars fir the arrest of
Jacob Thompson, State of Mississippi.
Twenty-five thousand dollars for the arrest of
Geo. N. Sanders.
Twenty five thousand dollars for the 'arrest of
Beverly Tucker.
Ten thousand dollars for the arrest of William
C. Cleary, late cletk of Clement C. Clay.
The Provost Marshal General of the United
States is directed to cause D description of the
said persons, with notice of the above reward, to
be published.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my
hand and caused the seal of the United States to
be affixed. Done at the city of Washington the
second day of May. in the year of our Lord one
thousand eight tundred and sixty-five, and of the
Independence of • the United States of sAmerica
he eighty-ninth. ANDREW Joimsolv.

FINANCE AND TRADE.
The popular 7-30 loan of the government is be
ing taken by the people with great rapidity—over
thirty millions of it having been subscribed for
last week. The certainty that the war is now
ended seems to have removed all doubt as to the
ability of the government to redeem its liabilities,
and the surplus money of the people naturally
takes that direction. The impression that the
government will soon cease to offer its loan we
regard as erroneous. In the best possible aspect
of the case, the national expenditures must be
largely in excess of the revenues for more
than a year to come. The Southern States
must be garrisoned; our great highways must
be protected, 'and the loyal men must be af
forded full protection everywhere, as they are
to be charged with the government of the re
volted States: To do this a large army, certainly
not less than 100,000 men, will be necessary, and
the cost - to the government for the next twelve
months, including unpaid liabalties and current
expenses wilLnot be less than $1,000,000 per day,
while there will not be one-third that amount of
revenues. Our customs are heeded to pay our in
terest; our revenues from lands have been al
most wholly absorbed by the Homstead law ; and
our internal revenue does not exceed from two
and a half to three millions per annum. The
government will therefore be a borrower fora
year to come, though not so largely as heretofore
and the Treasury Department will have the ad
vantage of national bonds being prefered by the
people to any others.
We give an interesting letter in to -day's paper
from the Oil regions, written by Mr. Pomeroy,
President of the Sterling Company. We do not
apprehend any difficaltrabout &storing the Ster
ling well, and the developments pressed by the
Company on its own valuable lands, give promise
of early and decided success.
