THE AMERICAN CITIZEN. Butler, Pa.,Wednesday,July 27,1864. * Kntnwce to the American Citizejt Printing Office m the South,on Jefferson atreet. KlLLED.—Augustus Singer, Veteran Volunteer, of the 12th Pa. Cav. and son • of Rev. Jacob Singer, late of this place, Was killed on the 10th inst., in a charge made by part of the 12th llegt. through Frederick City, Md. Sfif" Gen. Johnston has been releived from the command of the rebel army in front of Sherman, and Gen. Hood assign ed to it. The Richmond papers growl considerably, alleging- that it is an ap pointment not fit to be made. The f'.loctlon!! Recollect that Tuesday nest, being the 2d of August, is the day on which you arc called upon to say whether the soldier who is periling his life for his country, shall have a vote in the shaping of its policy. Let all goto the polls early! and mark the man who will not vote for this amendment to our Constitution. tkg" In the last Citizen we said to the citizens of the county that we were still engaged in recruiting a company of vol unteers for the one hundred day service, and that we expected to leave in about ten days from that time, From many parts of the county we have'that encour agement which fully assures us that we could have a full company in a very few days. We have over fifty men enrolled who arc waiting, willing and ready togo; but in view of the fact that a call lias been made for five hundred thousand men for one, two or thrco years, and the quotas of the different districts are to be filled by the 6th of September, at which time if the men are not forthcoming a draft will take place for one'year, we have conclud ed to stop recruiting for the one hundred <fhv service, for the present, in order that our county and the different sub-districts thereof may the better be enabled to fill their quotas; at the end of which time, if 100.day men should still be wanted by the State or National Government wo will rehew our cffurt; and 1 take this oppor tunity of returning my sincere thanks to those who have enrolled their names, and to those who have lent their influence in our behalf, and exerted themselves in the good cause. C. E. ANDERSON. jr*T' r rovost Marshal Fry announ ces that orders to carry out the law in relation to recruiting in rebellious States are in press, and will be brought to completion as soon as possible. Army Corrcsjxindriice. Wo have been furnished the fol lowing extract of a letter addressed by S. Foster "V!' Bride, Hospital Steward. F. S. A., to his father in this borough, dated: F. S. (IENKIIAL HOSPITAL, FREDERICK, MD., July la, I$G4. "I will attempt to give you an inade quate description of what has traflspired in this vicinity since I last wrote. As is our custom at this Hospital, to give a large dinner every holiday, we were busily pre paring for the -4 th. A large awning had been erected and furnished with scats, ca pable of seating five hundred persons— a stage erected for the speakers—a brass band engaged for the occasion; programmes printed for the day—anything and every thing palatable that the market could af ford, was purchased, and in fact, every thing augured well for the .pleasure and enjoyment of the inmates of the Hospi tal, Rut our labors were all in vain. For a number of days previous, rumors had been current that the Rebels in large force were moving down the valley, and the oc cupation of this place by thAn seemed to be a fixed fact in the minds of this com munity. On the 3d, (Sunday ) SSO pa tients arrived here from Martinsburg. Va.. indicating that something of a serious na ture was transpiring in the valley. Of this number 400 were able for duty, and who skedaddled before they- saw the ene my. They were nearly all from different Ohio Militia regiments, for 100 -days. Immediately on their arrival here, they were examined by our Surgeons, and those pronounced fit for duty were to be sent under guard to their regiments, but un fortunately communication between Mar tinsburg and this place ceased in the even ing, and we were compelled to keep them that night. The next day, however, (the 4th,) they; were sent to Annapolis, when, on arriving there,\they were assorted, and those able for duty, including a number of officers, were placed under guaid.— A\ hat disposition has been made of them lam not able to say. These men should be made to suffer the penally of coward ice. By their actions they bring flishon ,or on themselves, their families, and on their State, which haa alwavs so uobly and willingly furnished men aud means to help crush this cursed rebellion. The 4th, instead' of being a day of pleasure and recreation, was converted in to one of labor. The Commissary^Quar termaster, aud a great portiou of Hospi tal stores were removed; horses and stock were taken to Baltimore, and men liable •to conscription skedaddled by scores. evening of the sth, everything wa« as quiet as a Sabbath's worn ; mer chants had thoir gattis stoweti awav. and busitec* was tfafur^m/o. Thus, time passed away, ruuiors being current tiint the enemy were still advanc ing, hut nothing definite could be ascer tained fs to their whereabouls, until Thurs day morn, (the 7th) they advanced about fe,ooo Cavalry, and one battery of artille ry, within half a mile of the city. Our forces did not exceed 2,500, however they met the enemy, and a brisk skirmish was kept up until dark, neither party advanc ing or receeding. During the night, the enemy withdrew and fell back to their main body, which was then about four miles from here. On Friday, one division •of the 6th Corps of the afmy of the Potomac arriv ed here, and our forces occupied the rtty during the day. no demonstrations being made on part of the enemy. In the even ing our forces, numbering then 10,000, retired three miles east of the city, crossing the Monocacy, over which is constructed, probably the largest bridge on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad. We may well say, " in the midst of peace we are in war," for we retired that night"iu Yankcedom, and the next morning in Rebeldom. At (j o'clock, a.m., of the 9th. the enemy's skirmishers entered the city, «nnd by 11 o'clock their army had come up and occupted the place. An at tachment of 8200,000 was made on the city, which was readily paid. Plunder ing was strictly forbidden, and I must say the discipline in their army was excellent. No stragglers were to bo seen lurking around coiners or grog shops; no carous ing or drunken fights occurred in the streets', and citizens were unmolested. ] saw their force, and estimated it. as oth ers, about 30,000 strong, composed of In fantry, Cavalry, and Artillery. All the damage done to the Hospital, was taking about one half of our medical supplies, leaving our commissary stores untouched. The Rebel force waff commanded by General's Early. Ewall, Breckinridge and Johnson. On the afternoon of the oth, they met our forces at the Monocacy, when a sharp fight was kept up allthc afternoon, which lesulted in severely punishing the enemy. On the afternoon of the 10th, two com panies of the 12th Pa. .Cavalry, charged through the city, completely routing about 300 rebel - cavalry. Captain M'Donncl led the charge, and was wounded twice. He is at present in the Hospital, and hopes for his < safety arc anticipated.— What the enemy's movements were after they left here. 1 am unable to say. as we have been cut oft" from -all communica tions. We have upwards of 400 wound ed rebels," and about 170 of our men ifl the Hospital at present. More again." (PnMUhc J by Request.) Tlie Homo ami Farm Jm-liooJ. .NASH VII.r.K ORPHANS. Owing to the indisposition of Kev. Mr. Rolls, of the Farm .School, and the con sequent delay of his journey some two weeks, a large number of orphan children at Nashville had been removed North by the agent of some New York Society, a few days before our brother reached Nash ville. Circumstances connected with the removal of these children—which we need not mention—had greatly excited the com munity; and it has been determined by the loyal citizens that no others should be sent out of the State. Persons had also been appointed to obtain funds from the East to support all such children, in or near Nashville, in some enc of the build ings abandoned by disloyal owners in the rebel army. Accordingly, lino. .1 lolls did what lie could to co-operate with this praiseworthy undertaking,and after many experiences of the desolations of war and of the efforts which arc uiade by the Christian and other Commissions to mit igate its sufferings and remove its miser ies. he rcWrned safely to the Farm School at Zelienoplc. Though natuaally disap pointed with the result, the journey and the experience were not in vain; and we hope, in the future, to be able to chronicle some hopeful event from this unexpected issue. We have, at least, "doue what we could," and now leavo all the issues in the hands of God. FIRST ARRIVAL OF ORPHANS FROM THE SOUTH. Shortly before the departure of Rev. Mr. Holls for Nashville, wo.received let ters from llcv. A. 11. Waters, of Prospect, Pa., who was then at Memphis, Tenn., laboring in the hospitals in the army, un der the auspices of the Christian Com mission. In these, there was frequent reference to the sad condition of the refugees, aud the pitiable state of some children among them who had lost their parents by disease, exposure, or the fiend ish cruelty of the rebel guerrillas. Meet ing soon after a leading citizen of Mem phis. ho kindly agreed to co-operate with l#o. Waters in the holy work of rescu ing as many of these helpless little ones as possible, and we immediately author ized the latter to draw on us for 4lie nec essary means to bring them to the Home and Farm School. Most faithfully aud laboriously did Rro. Waters seek after these jioor victims of the war, extending his search as far as Yicksburg, Miss, and Little Rock and Helena in Arkansas. Such, however, w#s the condition of not a few of the children found—sick an.! dying with meases, feavcr and various other dreadful diseases -.that but tweht could be safely brought along! Five oth ers whom he had selected, had to be left behind at one place, being unequal to the journey! By the kindly aid of a Chris tian lady from St. Louis, who was on her way home from the hospital in Memphis, Bro. Waters fiually succeeded in reach ing Rochester, with his charge a week ago. The children were immediately transferred to the care of the sisters at the Orphan's Home near Rochester, aud the Farm School at Zelienoplo, They already begin to show the influence of the new order of things under which they have come ; aud the power of soap and water, pure air, and wholesome food Is working a wondorous change tor the bet ter. Their condition was truly indescri bable ! Several are yet quite ill, and one of the boys has already been Md%y the aide of the quiet sleepers in the little cemetery of Farm School! Poor child! the iron hoof of war will, at least not now. desecrate his peaceful grave,! Though for the most part wholly illit erate, the little new-comers are not with out promise fbr the future. Some are really bright children, but their conversa tion is a curiosity. It is " i/'/irv thar," "ichar," "ytwn*,} "weens," "fotched up," and similar " negro talk" to the end of the chapter. A poor littlegirl, scarce ly three years old, who had been adopted by the soldiers, and lived with them in camp, at first cried immediately for ' "ra tions !" At last one of the friends caught the idea that the child wanted ' crackers." Sure 'enough, when the crackers were procured, the poor thing was satisfied.— The ''rations" aVe now regularly served, and the tears are dried up. Previously to"the arrival of these chil dren, a numberof other orphans were re ceived, and the unavoidable delay in the erecttou of the new "family house," caus ed no small discomfort and embarrass ment to the dear friends at both Institu tions. Isut we rejoice that, through di vine goodness, they are all of one heart and mind in reference to the clear Chris tian duty of receivinuumd caring for these poor victims of the mrv Will not Chris tians elsewhere remember them likewise, in their prayere, that the blessing of God may ero\*# the work of faith and charity in which fhey are engaged? Now thai a commencement has been made in receiv* iug these poor and dying orphan children of (he South, who can tel' whore the work will stop ? Oh, for faith, and pa tience, and prayer to be equal to the du ties of this earnest hour ! , A NEW LJF.I.I. FOR TIIK FARM SCHOOL. The destruction of the fine bell of this Institution when the main building was donsumed, was a loss very painfully felt alike by all the- inmates and the entire neighborhood. The pleasant melody of the old hell was the subject of many a re gret, and the wish was often expressed that some £o<«l fortune might again re place our loss. Such an event has just occurred, and we hasten to record the for-* during our absence in the same kind friend who has so generously donated the first bell, in con cert with seven other gentlemen ui' Pittsburgh, purchased (ho la»ge and ele gant bell which was cast for the late Sani tary Fair, by 31 r. A. Fulton, of this city, and very kindly donated it to the Farijj School at Zclienople. The whole matter was managed so quietly and done so hand somely. that the bell was ringing out its sweet sounds through the valley of the Cannoqucnessing, before we even had an intimatationon thesubjeet.

As these Bond-* are Earmjit from Munirijml or-Slate Taxation, their value is increased from one to throe percent, per an num, according to the rate of 4ax lories In various parts of the country. At tho present rat<u-f premium on gold they pay Over Eight Per Cent Interest in currency, and are of equal convenience a* a perma nent or temporary investment. It is believed that no securities offer so great induce ment* to letters as the various descriptions of C. 8. Bonds. In all other forms of indebtedness, the faith or ability of private parties or stock companies or separate communi ties only is plodged f«>r payment, while for the debts of the United States the whole property of the country is liolden to secure the payment of both principal and in terest in coin: These Bonds may be subscribed for in sunjs from %S0 p to any magnitude, on the sam* terms, and are thus made equally available to the smallest lender and the largest capitalist. They can be converted into money at any moment, and tho holder will have the benefit of the Interest. It may l>e useful to state in this connection that the total Funded Debt of the United States on which inter est is payable in gold, en the 3d day of March, 1364, was $769,66.%000. The interest on this debt for tho coming flcal year will be M0,^37,126, while the customs revenns in gold for tho current fiscal year, ending June 30th, 18<M, hw been Go far at a rate of over £100,000,006 per annom. It will be seen that eren the present gold revenues of the Government are largely in excess of the wants of the Treasurer for the payment of gold interest, while the re cent increase of the tariff will doubtless raise tho annual receipts from customs on the same amount of import*- Uoa«, to 1160,000,000 i»r annum. * Instructions to the National Banks aetingaa loan agents wcro not issued from tho United State Treasury until March 2«, but in the first three weeks of April the sub- I averaged more than TEN MILLIONS A WEEK Subscriptions will be received by the First National Bank of Philadelphia, Pa. !
