FATAL AcCrnENT. — ON Tuesday. An;.
2d, John Worthington and David Hoff
man, while engaged in setting up the raf
ters on the barn of .John and A\ m. M orth
ington, wore precipitated from the top of
the building to the ground, a listance of
40 feet. Mr. Worthington died the same
evening; Mr. Hoffman was very severely
injured, but hopes are entertained of his j
recovery.
NEW COMPANIES. —An effort is being
made to raise at least one new company
within the bounds of our county. R. O. :

102 d Pa. Vols, arc oppcrating in the
northern part of the county, we have not
been informed as .to the progress they are |
making and therefore cannot speak with
any certanity of their success. Those i
who may volunteer in our county havcan ;
opportunity of joininga new organization, i
Those gentlemen have established a re- j
crtiting office in North \\ ashington.
l>. C. Ay res, son of - T ohn Ayres:
and member of Co. I, 102(1 (old 13th
Itect.) has arrived at home ; he was woun- j
ded in both legs in one of the late engage- !
ments under Grant. I lis left lug has been
amputated above the knee, which is en
tirely healed up: the right log is not yet .
healed ; but ho is doing well and in fine ,
spirits; and when fully recovered, intends j
entering the Invalid Corps. He is trulj
a patriot and brave soldier. He has serv
ed his country nobly and faithfully in the
time of her trouble and danger, and has \
won the gratitude and respect of his many
friends; we hope that he may long live to j
enjoy the rich blessings of civil and relig
ious liberty—an honor to his parents and j
friends.
flsey The quiet of our town, was dis- :
turbod on Monday, the loth inst., by a ;
number of men becoming intoxicated, one ;
of whom became intolerable, by interrupt
ing peaceable citizens on the street, and ;
finally by attempting to twftst a gun from j
the hands of a man, quietly passing along 1
the highway. At this juncture, the Iljgh j
Constable, as a good officer, arrested him.
but while on the way to the jail, a number :
of the companions, of the drunken man, i
came to his rescue, and before he couhl
be secured in the jail, the}- forcibly tore j
him from the -officer and a few citizens j
whom he had commanded to assist him to !
make the arrest. He was subsequently
arrested however by the sheriff aud lodg- |
ed in jail during the Jiight. As a citi
zen of Butler, wc can but confess our j
shame, at being compelled to report such
outrageous conduct. The drunkenness it
self was outragertus, and the obstructing
the officer, while in the line of duty, was
if possiblo more so. We feel that our
love for the prosperity of the communi
ty, our love for the youth, and good citi
zens of our town, our love for law and
order, demand that we condemn the out
landish conduct. We hope the proper offi
cers will not fail to deal with themas their
crimes deserve. Such occurences are be
coming but tOQ common. It is certainly
the duty of all order loving men to unite,
in order to prevent such scenes in the fu
ture.
—The rebels have determined tosustain
Geueral Hood in his bloody work at At
lanta. His army was sixty thousand
strong when it crossed the Chattuboochie
river in retreat. It has lost one-fourth
of its fighting strength since that tii e,
hut has been reinforced by a large body
of militia; all the forces operating in Mis
sissippi, lately under command of Lieu
tenant-General Stephen Decatur Lee, and
a large portion of General Richard Tay
lor's army from the west bank of the Mis
sissippi river. This swells Hood's army
very considerably, but does not make it
edual to that of Gen. Sherman in num
bers, and certainly not in moral and roal
military strength. Besides, we can re
inforce Sherman with fifty thousand vet
erans from the departments of Generals
Canbey, Rosenerans, and Stoelcs. and re
liovc many veterans now holding the
railroad from Atlanta to Nashville, with
new troops.
IVrHonal anil Xew* Items.
—lt is understood that Gen.Grantham
ordered General Rheridau and General
Wright to attack Early at once, and to
figlit the rebels where ever they are to be
found.
—A rebel train of twenty-five or thir
ty wagons loaded .with grain, was captur
ed by trur forces near Aldie Gap, in Vir
ginia on Sunday. No prisoners wore ta
ken.
—General Grant and staff have retail
ed to the army of the Potomac from a
visit to the Upper Potomac. Latest re
ports from the Shenandoah Valley repre
sent the rebels in force south of Winches
ter, and it is thought we shall have an
engagement with them in that vicinity.
—A telegram from Buffalo states that
rumors are rife in that city that 'lie reb
els and sympathizers in Canada are about
to make a raid on that city. It is said
that the Government is informed of it.
—A Convention of the different Christ
ian denominations is called to meet in
West Alexander, Washington County,
on the 23d inst., at 10 o'clock, a. m., for
the purpose especially of discussing the
following proposed amendments to the
Constitution of the United States , viz :
1. The explicit recognition of the being
of God.
2. The meditorial supremacy of the
Lord Jesus Christ.
3. Tfcc supreme authority of the divine
law.
4. To make the Constitution more ex
plicitly anti-slavery.
In addition to these, tho following top
ics were adopted as subjects for discus
sion.
5. The duty of national sanctifieation
of the Sabbath.
G Tho duty of national temperance re
form . 1
—Major General Wallace, lately in
command of the Middle Department, is
ordered to resume command ofthe .Eighth
army corps, and other troops sol ving with
in the department from which he was
temporarily rcleived. The troops of Maj. ,
General Hunter's command, temporarily
assigned to the forces under Major Gen.
Wright, have been relieved from that
assignment. At last accounts General
Wright's command was at boonesboro,
Maryland.
—Pan Voorhees removed his law office,
in Tcrre Ilaute, a few days ago, and in
doing so left behind a package of pamph
lets which arc now in tho hands 01" the
Provost Marshal. On examination they
were found to be fifteen hundred copies
of the Yellow Hook, containing the sec
ond and third degrees of the ritual oftlio
Sons of Liberty, done up in an unopened
cxpress package
—The Union officers recently exchang
ed at Charleston have arrived at Fortress
Monroe. They report that (!en. Poster
says he will take Charleston within two
months. Prisoners of war confined in
the interior of (reorgia arc being remov
ed to Charleston, as the rebels don't con
sider them safe in their late prisons.
Six hundred officers arrived on the 3d.
—Speaking of the burning of Chnni
bhrsburg, the New York Tribune thus
disposes ofa Copperhead falsehood : "The
Copperhead organs which asserted that
the Union armies have burned towns un
der similar circumstances simply lie—
there is no other word that does them
justice. No Union General ever order
ed the firing of a city or borough where
in he had encountered no resistance;
though Quantrell not only burned Law
rence, which was surprised and lay at his
mercy, but called uiost of its unarmed ,
male citizens out of'tjicir beds and butch
ered them in cold blond."'
—General Kilpatric basso far recover
ed from his wound that he was enabled
to resume his command in the Army of j
the Cumberland afew days ago.
—THE NEW YORK Herald suggests
that Admiral Farragut's recent movement
is probably designed not so much for the
capture of Mobile as it is to obtain pos
session of Panphin Island and Mobile
Point, so that the harbor can bo effectual
ly blockaded, and at the same time to re
lieve the larg'e Union fleet now oil that
place, who were hourly threatened with
an attack ffom the rebel iron dads lying
under the guns of Fort Morgan.
1! WE NEGROES THE RIGHT TO VOTE?
—Before tho late special election it was
\ a favorite electioneering dodge of the
j Copperheads to tell the people that if the ■
first amendment was adopted it would
I give negroes the right to vote. The
amendment has been adopted. Are they
[ willing to admit, now, that under it ne
! groes have the right to vote ?
j —lf Grant wins a battle, it is in pnrt
j a triumph over the fundamental law of
the Gor<r)imr»t. If Sherman conquers
Atlanta, an essential portion of the. ('/in
stitution i< thrreajter dead. If our sol
diers win a victory, its glory i» lost in the
eons' iotuttcss that a portion of its fruit is
marred aud haltered Constitution.—Mil
waukee flews.
This being the summing up of the re
sult of Federal successes, as made by the
" Peace " men, of course it is desirable,
in their view, that no successes should be
achieved, but that the rebels should tri
umph. That is the logical result of all
'•Peaco" principles. Can loyal Demo
crats act with such men?— Alb. Eve.
Jour.
WEI,L PI T. —On the occasion of
the Notional Fast, the Rev Dr. Rob
inson, of the Theological Seminary,
preached in the Central Presbyterian
Church of Rochester, N. Y., and ve
ry pertinently asked:
What can write his will and
say, this goes down to my posterity,
that I helped to arrest this war before
its work is done ? I should be asham
ed to have it said of mo, that for prop
erty or any other selfish considera
tion, 1 proved false to thi issues of
this Civil War of 1864. We arc not
exhausted. We can not be exhaust
ed, even if it is carried down to the
next generation. And we ought to
carry it to the next generation, rath
er than abandon it before its work is
I done.
A handsome young lady being ask
ed if she ever gave a kiss, replied, "No,
but T have often had one stolen."

WH O. BRACKENRIDGE,
Aug. |T. IW4. Sheriff.
U. S. 7-30 Loan.
Tns Secretary of tho Treasury gives notico that sub
scriptions will be received for Coupon Treasury Notes,
psyable three years from Aug. 16th, 1804, with semi-an
nual Interest at u rate of seven and three-tenths per
cont. per annum—principal and interest both to be paid
in lawful money.
These notes will bo convertible at tho option of the
holder at maturity, into six per cent, gold bearing bond®,
payable not less than five nor inoro than twenty years
from thoir date, as the Government may elect. They
will be Issued In denominations of SSO, SIOO, SSOO, SI,OOO
and 96,000, aud all subscriptions must be for fifty dollars
or some multiple of fifty dollars.
The notes will be transmitted to tho owners free of
transportation charges as soon otter the receipt of tho
original Certificate of Deposit as they can be prepared.
As the notes draw interost from Angust 15, persons
making deposits subsequent to that duto must pay thu
Interest accrued from date of note to date of deposit.
Parties depositing twenty-live thousand dollars and
upwards for these notes at any one time will bo allowed
a commission of one-quartor of one per cent., which will
be paid by the Treasury Department upon the receipt of
a bill for the amount, certified by the officer with whom
the deposit was made. No deductions for commissions
must be mado from the deposits.
Special Advantages of This Loan.
It is a National Savi.ku* Ba.no, offering a higher ram
cf interest than any other, and the best security. Any
savings bank which pays its depositors in U. S. Notos,
considers that it is paying in the best circulating medium
of the country, and it cannot pay in anything better, for
its own asscis are either in government securities or in
notes or bonds payable in government paper.
It is equally conveniet as a temporary or permanent
investment. Tho notes can always bo sold for within a
fraction of their faco and accumulated Interest, ond are ]
the best security with banks as collaterals for disounts.
Convertible into a Six per cent. 5-20 Gold Bond, j
In addMiou to the very liberal Interest ou the notes for i
three years, this prlvilego of conversion Is now worth
about three percent, per annum,for the current rato fur
1 5-20 Bonds is not loss than nine percent, premium, and
before the war the premium in six per cent. U. S. stocks i
was over twenty per cent. It will be seen that the ac
tual profit on this loan, at tho present market rato, is not
less than teu per cent, per annum.
Its Exemption from State or Municipal Taxation.
But aside from all the advantages wo ha n fl enumera- ,
ted, a special Act of Congress exempts all bonds and
Treasury notes from lacal taxation. 0u the average,
this exemption is worth about two per cent, per annum,
occording to the rato of taxation in various parts of the
country.
It is believed that no securities offer so great Induce
ments to lenders as those Issued by the government.—
In all other forms of indebtedness, the faith or ability
of prlvato parties, or stock companies, or separate com
munities, ouly, is pledged fsr payment, while the wljole
property of the country is held to secure the discharge
of all the obligations of the United States.
While tho government offers tho most liberal torms
f.»r Its loans, it believes that tho very strongest appeal
will be the loyalty and patriotism of tho people.
Duplicate certificates will bo i • ucd for all doposlLs.—
Tho party depositing mud tndorso upon tho original
certificate*the denomination of notos required, and
whether they arc to be issued in blank or payable to or
di-. When so endorsed it must be left with tho officer
receiving the deposit, to be forwarded to the Treasury
Department.
