girjy- \\*e have just received a letter from
A. M. Brown, Esq., Chairman of the
I'n ion Executive Committee of Allegheny
county, informing us that our "friends of
Allegheny have fixed upon THURSDAY,
September 29th inst., for holding a Grand
Union Masts Meeting in Pittsburgh. We
hope our friends will bear this in mind,
and as far as consistent with local duty,
assist in making this a grand affair.
Who min(K I'IIII ?
All who enjoy a great amount of fun
and take a good old fashioned laugh, can
do so by visiting Lake & Co's., (ireat
Western Circus, which is to be in llutlor,
on Thursday, the 22(1 day of this month.
It is brilliant beyond precedent, and com
prises a large troupe of Equestians, Ac
rabats, Trick Horses, &c. A sight of
John Lowlow, the comical (Mown, is worth
half the money it costs to see the mam
moth concern.
* MT W c arc not specially advised as
•to the number of townships which have
filled their quotas, and thereby avoided
the draft.
The borongh of Butler, Butler tp.,
Clinton, Middlesex, Adams, Forward,
Jackson, Lancaster, Muddycrcek. Brady,
Worth, Centre, Concord, ('lay. Franklin,
Connoquoncssing, we believe are all out,
we think it probable that Buffalo and
Slippcryrock arc also out, but don't know,
also the borough's of Zelienople, Pros
pect, Saxonburg, and Cetitreville, we
think are also clear. Other districts may
yet escape the draft; but some we believe
have decided to patiently wait their lot,
and cheerfully submit.
As a general rule we have favored vol
unteering ; but will be willing to sec the
armies filled in whatever way is most
agreeable to the local districts.
K&>~ We have retained the premium
list, Committees, &c., in our paper this
week, so that all interested may have a
full opportunity of perusing them. We
trust they will preserve this paper fur rel
crence, as we will lie compelled to take
this matter out of our next.
The harvest rains have been abundant,
the hills are abundantly covered with ver
dure, promising plenty for man and beast;
we hope therefore, that all will take hold
and make our approaching Fair a success.
Bring out your stock and have them com
pared with those of your neighbor. Al
so your grain and poultry.
Let all departments and both sexes
unite in making the Fair a grand success.
In this way only can we improve our
stock, our grain, our vegetables, our farjj
ming and other impliments.
JSaTln this weeks paper will be found
a correct copy of the late elcdßon law,
made necessary by the amendment lately
adopted, to our state constitution, allow
ing the soldiers tho right to vote. To the
Republican party alone belongs the credit
of carrying through this very just meas
ure. The Copperheads in the Legisla
ture, threw every obstacle in their way,
but they overcame all opposition, both in
the Legislature and before the people,
refutiug falsehoods and slanders, and thus
carrying the matter through in spite of
opposition.

m For the Citizen.
Mil. EDITOR :—I see the Democrats of
j'our town arc organizing for a very "vigor
-om prosecution of peace," and in their
, COUIMJ-convention I see they actually ask
ed the sttMiers for our votes. Now I want
to know if they have not insulted ns
enough. They on the 2d day of August
last, went to the polls and voted agaiust
giving us a right to vote in the army, and
now they turn around and want us to vote
for them. Could there be a greater in
sult; after having done us all the injury
ffcey gould, by wanting to put us on the
name footing with criminals, who, on ac
count «112 their crimes, have forfeited their
votes? Or do they think we arc as cow
ardly and as false in our duty to our coun
try as they aru. Tlu; soldiers I can inform
them, understand something of polities
and the nature of the coming elections,
and will votefornone but good Union mm,

Fro;n the Dctipit Free "PreMS, Aug. 4.
The Seven-Thirl) Cioverttiiieut
Loan.
The Secretary of the Treasury lias
made an appeal to the people for a loan of
two hurtdred millions erf dollars. This
appeal, although responded to promptly
in some sections, has been received with
a different feeling in souie others. This,
it seems to us, is a grave mistake. The
Government is iu debt, and it must have
money to pay the soldiers in the field, the
sailors on the ocean, and to meet the cur
rent daily expenses incurred. Congress
has made the appropriations. It will nev
er do for the people who own the govern
i merit to say that individually they will
| not pay the debts contracted by their rep
i resentatives assembled in Washington.
: This is repudiation, and repudiation is
: disgrace the world over. Jf the people
think that the money which has been ap
propriated has been squandered reckless
ly, if iliey believe the war might have
been avoided with the exercise of ordina
ry wisdom, or conducted with more ener
gy and more success, they have the reme
dy in their own hands, and that remedy
is to change their representatives iu Con
gress and select a new President. The
remedy is not repudiation, or to even fal
ter in the prompt payment of the debt
already contracted. Kvery individual in
the State has a personal interest in the
discharge of every obligation contracted,
and to sustain the credit of the govern
ment above even a suspicion. The pay
ment of our debts is a question quite out
side ot the ordinary political discussions.
We are living under a system of written
laws. We are a nation of freemen, each
one of which has a direct interest in the
Government, and if it falls, the failure
will more or less reflect upon the wisdom
and patriotism of each and every one in
the community. We may differ widely
as to the best poiijy to pursue to accom
plish a certain end, which all ardently de
sire, but when that policy has been deci
ded upon, and obligations contracted, it is
the imperat svt- duty of every one to sus
tain the government, so as to enable it to
meet promptly all of its liabilities. The
ruin of the government financially, is the
prostration of every individual in it. If
the government bonds will not sell, what
arc State and city and county or individ
ual obligations worth? What security is
of any value, if we have no government
to enforce obligations.
If these views are correct,there is no one
thing more important at this time than to
sustain the credit of the government.
This can be done with ease if the people
will but invest a small part of their sur
plus in government securities.

U. S« 7-30 Loan.
THE Secretary of the Treasury gives notice that sub
scriptions will be received for Coupon Treasury Note®,
payable three years ft-otn Aug. 15th, 1864, with seuii-an
uual Interest at a rate of seven and three-tenth* per
cent, per annum—principal and interest both to be paid
inlawful money.
These notes will be convertible at the option of the
holder at maturity, Into nix per cent, gold bearing bonds,
payable not less thau five nor more than twenty years
from their date, as the Government may elect. They
will be issued in denominations of SOO, SIOO, SSOO, SI,OOO
and $5,000, and all subscriptions must be for fifty dollars
or some multiple of fifty dollars.
The notes will bo transmitted to the owuers free of
transportation charges as soon after the roceipt of the
original Certificate of Deposit as they can be prepared.
As the notes draw interest from August 15, persons
making deposits subsequent to that date must pay the
Interest accrued from date of note to date of deposit.
Parties depositing twenty-flwf thousand dollars and
upwards for these notes at any ono time will be allowed
a commission of one-quarter of one yer cent., which will
be paid by the Treasury Deportment upon the receipt of
a bill for the amount, certified by the officer with whom
the fit-posit was made. No deductions for commissions
must be made from the deposits.
Special Advantages of This Loan.
IT IS A NATIONAL SAVINGS BAND, offering a higher rate
of interest than any other, and the best security. Any
savings bank which pays its depositors In U. 8. Notes,
considers that It is paying in the best circulating medium
of the country, and it cannot pay in anything butter, fbr
its own assets are either in government securities or in
notes or bonds payable in government paper.
It is equally conveniet JUS a temporary or pertnauent
investment. The notes can always be sold for within a
fraction of their fttce and accumulated interest, and are
the best security with banks as collaterals for dlsounts.
Convertible into a Six per cent. 5-20 Gold Bond.
In addition to the very liberal interest on the notes for
three years, this privilege of conversion Is now worth
about three percent, per annum, for the curront rate for
5-90 Hoods Is not less than nine percent, premium, and
before the war the premium in six per cent. U. S. stocks
was over twenty por cent. It will be seen that the ac
tual profit on this loan, at the present market rate, is not
loss than ten per cent, per annum.
Its Exemption from State or Municipal Taxation.
llut aside from all the advantages we ha"e enumera
ted, a special Act of Congress exempts all bonds ami
Treasury notes from lacal taxation. On tho average,
this exemption Is worthjibout two per cent, per annum,
occording to the rate of taxation iu 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 private parties, or stock companies, or separate com
munities, ouly, Is plodged fsr payment, while tho wholo
property of the country Is held to secure tho discharge
of all the obligations of the United States.
, While the government offers the most liberal terms
for Its loans, it believes that the very strongest appeal
will be tho loyalty und patriotism of Uie people.
Duplicate certificates will bo issued for all deposits.—
The party depositing must endorse upon the original
certificate the denomination uf note* required, and
whether they are to bo issued in Idank or payable 1 to or
der. When so endorsed it must be left with tho officer
receiving the deposit, to be fbrwarded to the Treasury
Department.
SUBSCRIPTIONS WILL B r RECEIVED by tho o
the United States, at Washington, the several Ahfiistant
Treasurers and designated Depositaries, ami by tho
First llonk of
Allegheny City, Pa. First, Second, and Third National
Hanks of Pittsburgh, Pa., and by all National Hank*
which are depositaries of public money, and
