Summary of H'nr ,\ews.
From our Exchanges and Telegrams,
we are enabled to gather the following
particulars: The Potomac army com
menced to move on Tuesday night, the
4id inst. Previous to moving, General
Meade made a stirring address to the ar
my, which closes thus: " With eleareon
science and strong arms, actuated by a
high sense of duty, lighting to preserve
the government and institutions handed
down to us by our forefathers, and if true
to ourselves, victory, under (.tod's bless
ing, must and will attend our efforts."
Our army succeeded in crossing the
Rappahannock and Rapidan rivet's, with
but slight opposition, compelling Lee to
evacuate his strong positions and entrench- !
mcnts where ho had held us at bay so
long. It was thought probable that he
would give battle at Chancellorsville. Af
ter reaching the south bank of the Il.ipi- ;
dan, our cavalry under Gens. Wilson and |
<!rcgg. were pushed forward, the former j
to Parker's stoic, and the latter sonic dis- j
tance beyond Chancellorsville. They dis
covered nothing of tkc enemy but weak ;
i bodies of cavalry. This rcconnoisance j
-showed the fact that there was no strong j
rebel force immediately on the south; aj
few prisoners were taken, one of them
bearing a dispatch from Ocn. Rhodes to
Gen. Ewcll, that the Union or Yankee
soldiers had crossed in force at Gcrmania
and Ely's ford. After the crossing and
reconnoisance was completed, our men
moved forward. Gen. Hancock encamp
ed on the old battle ground of Chancel
lorsville. Gen. Warren at the wilderness
tavern, and Gen. Sedgwick at the tavern
at Gcrmania ford, being the head quar
ters of Gens. Grant and Meade. This
appears to have been the disposition of
our forces on Wednesday night, the -fin.
At an early hour on Thursday morning,
the Union army was iu motion. The dif
ferent portions of the army had been on
the move but a short time, when reports
.were brought in that the enemy were ad
vancing with infantry and artillery in
strong force, from near Old and New Ver
deirsville. At this time Gens. Grant and
Meade came up, our forces were concen
trated and formed in line of battle, Sedg
* wiek on the right, Warren in the centre,
and Hancock on the left. The two for
mer got into liue about 11 o'clook, a. m.,
soon after which skirmishing was heard
in the front. Warren advanced about
three quarters of a mile when he found
himself confronted by a well-formed.
«trong rebel position on a thickly wooded
ridge. A severe fight ensued. The en
emy made two desperate attacks upon our
fhjjes j# hopes of breaking the same. The
,fight coutiyyed till dark, our forces re
gaining in possession of the ground; ev"
.cry corps in proper position, and Burn
side fully up. Ihe fighting was renewed
,on Friday, and is said to have been the
most terrific ever fought by the arjny of
thePotomae. Lee's entire army made re
peated and furious assaults upon the right
apd left which were repulsed. About 4
o'clock, p. m., an attack was made along
fhc whole line, which was gallantly rcpuls
pd. After which, near dark, Lee concen
trated his whole force against our extreme
right, aad fell suddenly upon Sedgwick,
crushing a part of his line. It was re
formed aud scoured against further 'ifso? ,
faster, .he enemy withdrawing under COY <
ler of darkness. The enemy's loss is said i
to be 3000 killed, and 10,000 wounded. |
Union I< iss. from C,OUO to 8,000. As we
goto press, we are informed by our ex- ,
changes that Lee's army commenced fall
ing back on Iriday night; our army in ,
j full pursuit. The loss is heavy on both ;
| sides. Gen Hays, of Pittsburgh, and
j Gen. Wadsworth. of N. Y., killed.

which all have wondered, for such things were only ex- j
ported to proceed fp-m master workmen, but his ingenui
ty isn't all that recommend him to our notice find es
teem : he was helovcd by all his relatives, and respected
by nil who knew him. But above all. ho was a member
j of the Prcbyterinn Church, a communicant of good and
j regular standing, and a« far as human Judgment can go,
believed tobea child of (l «l. Among tho many thing*
I mid by him on his death lied, but a few examples need
I here be presented said be. -I am going home to heaven,
| but it is n >t f»r any good that I have done, for I have
| done nothing worthy of heaven, my Savior has done all
j for me," his injunction t.< all was " try to meet tnc ?ti heav

him, his mind began to wander, said he:"I «m flighty,
| will someone talk tome t • keep mv mind from wander,

oh ! said he, " talk to me of heaven and Jesus." lie then
fell Into along sleep from which he awoke, as all believe,
in that hoavenly home, he so ardently longed to.go to.
'Twastbus this youth just ripening into uianhoixl, faded
away as flules the autumn leaf.
While sickness and trouble, affliction and woe.
Comes crowding our hearts full of grief.
We arc ever receiving the great admonition.
We all do fade as a leaf.
All nature aronnd us. the clouds and tho wind,
The blossom, the blade and the sheaf.
Thehweet scented roses nil tell the same story,
We all do fade as a leaf.
The Iris of heaven that beautiful bow,
Though lasting a se.ison so brief,
W bile fading and dying repeats to our senses.
We all do fade as a leaf.
The boundless blue ocean, the white crested wave.
The whirlpool, the breaker, the reaf.
And the stream from the mountain reflects as a mirror.
We all do fade an a leaf.
Our bodies while braving the storm-wind below,
Tho blind and the halt and the deaf.
The ills we full heir to remind u« forever,
We all do fade as a leaf.
When friends fondly cherished are laid in the tomb,
And w« feel our hearts bursting with grief.
Then truly coiues to us the prophets great warning,
We all do fade as a leaf. L. w.

The disease of which these little children died, was Mea

ken ill of the same disc awe, and their father, who had gone
out to fight for hi* country, was not permitted to see ths.r
sweet faces while the hand of death was upon them. May
Ood support them under their severe affliction, and pre
pare them to meet their children in that butter world

IX. S. 10-40 Bonds.
These Bonds are iaiued under the Act of Congress of
March Sth, 1804, which provides that all Bonds issued un
der thia Act shall be EXEMPT FROM TAXATION by or
under any state or municipal authority. Subscription*
to these Bonds are received in United status notes or
notes of National Banks. They are TO BE REDEEMED
i IN COIN, at the pleasure of the Government, at any po
; riod not less than ten nor more than forty years from their
date, and until their redemption FIVE PER CENT. IN
TERRST W ILL BE PAID IN COIN, on Bonds of not
' over one hundred dollars annually aud ou other Bonds
semi-annually. Tho Interest is payable on tho first days
of March and geptember in each year?
Subscribers will receive either Registered or Coupon
Bonds, as they may prefer. Registered Bonds are record
| ed on the books of tho U. S. Treasurer, and can be trans
ferred only on the owner's order. Coupon Bonds are
1 navable to bearer, and are more convenient for commer-
I '
i cial uses.
Subscribers to this loan will have the option of having
their Bonds draw interest from March Ist, by paying the
accrued interest in coin—(or in United States notes, or
the notes of National Banks, adding fifty per cebt. fijr
' premium,) or receive them drawing interest from the
date of subscription and deposit As these Bonds are
E*emjH from Municipal or State Taxation,
their value is Increased from one to three percent, per an
' num, according to the rate of tax levies lu various part* of
1 the country.
j At the present rate of premium on gold they pay
Over Kin lit Per Cent Interest
in currency, and are of equal convenience as a perma-
I ncnt or temporary investment.
• It is believed that no securities offer so great Induce
ments to lenders a* tho variojg descriptions of 11. 8. Bonds.
In all other forms of indebtedness, the faith or ability of
i private parties or stock companies or separate communl
i ties only Is pledged for payment, while for the debts of
| the United States the wholo property of the country is
hidden to secure the payment of both principal and in
■ terest in coin:
j . These Bonds may be subscribed for In sums from ss<>
; pto any magnitude, on the same terms, and are thus
' made equally available to the smallest lender and the
; largest capital!*. They can be converted Into money at
; any moment, and the holder will have tho benefit of the
interest.
j It may be useful to state In this connection that the
total Funded Debt of tho United States on which Inter
est Id payable in gold, on tho 3d day of March, IHftl, was
$708,065,000. The Interest on thi* debt fir tho coming
ileal year will be 112 4ft,987,120, while the customs revenue
in gold for the current fiscal year, ending June 30th, I*W4.
has been m far at a rate of over sloo,ooo,oooper annum.
It will be seen that even the present gold revenues of
the Government are largely in excess of the wants of the
Treasurer for the payment of gold interest, while tho re
cent Increase of tho tariff w ill doubtless raiso the annual
receipts from customs on the eame amount of importa
tions, to $160,000,000 per annum.
Instructions to the National Ranks actingasloan agents
were not issued from the United State Treasury until
March 20, but in tho first three weeks of April the sub
scriptions averaged more than TEN MILLIONS A WEEK.

First National Bank of Philadelphia, Pa.
