THE AMERICAN CITIZEN. Butler, Pa.. Wednesday,Nov.23,lß64 6&J- We refer our readers to the various advertisements of H. < ■. lleineman, in our p:iper to-day. We advise all wishing to procure Holiday gifts, &e., to examine his fresh stock of Variety Notions. We have nodoQ'bt they will find everything desirable in their line, at reasonable fig ures. Call and see. I®"-We arc informed that Mr. Ben jamin Jack ingoing to take charge of the .lack House, in this place, now kept by Mr. Magee. We are not informed as to Mr. Magee's future intentions —the best wishes of the community will accom pany him. Mr. Jack, we believe, will take possession of the house 011 the Ist of December; he will doubtless be welcomed back to our town by lii? numerous friends. While proprietor of the Lowrv House, he earned a name as a hotel keeper, of which he may well be proud. (W We would direct the attention of Farmers, and all others fond of good read in" to the Prospectus of the (rf.rmnn- Jutm Tehrfroph. published in another col umn. It is an old and well established Agricultural Journal, embracing 1 lorti culture, Hardening, Fruit-liaising, Ac.— Its Literary and News Department, arc highly interesting and instructive.

Mr. Armstrong was one of our most worthy citizens. We have not learned any of the particulars of his death. He leaves a-wifeaml children, with a large circle of friends and acquain tances to mourn his untimely death. Our oh 11 relations to the deceased, were those of most intimate friend-hip—we can scarcely imagine that he is no more— we sineorely sympnthize with bin bereav ed family. ilis name will lit added to those who have fallen in the cause of their country.

"At noon tluMi ah they were conir to laml, they wwu firy ofcualM.aml H-*h laid thereon, and broad. Ju«ii« saith untw tbeui, C-oiue and dine." John xxi, 8. 12. 1 must refer particularly to one promi nent feature of their work for weary, wounded bodies of tlis day, which for ita novelty and usefulness, deserves especial attention. Some of the newspapers lu.ve mentioned a new cooking-wagon, presen ted by the inventor to the Christian Com mission, which is thoroughly rat generis. It is constructed somewhat like a battery caisson, so that the parts can be unlimber cd aud separated from each other. The " limber," or forward part bears a large j chest, which is divided into compartments, j to contain coffee, tea, sugar, aud corn starch, with a place also lortwo gridirons : and an axe. From the rear ]K>rtion rise three tall smoke-pipes, above three large ■ boilers, under which there is a place for the fire, and under the fire a box for the i fuel. Each boiler will hold fourteen gal . Ions; audit is estimated that in each one tm the inarch, ten gallons of tea, or cof fee or chocolate, could be made in twen ty minutes—thus giving ninety gallons of nourishing drink every hour. It is truly a most ingenious and beneficent inventiou. There was a call for coffee. A party of delegate* at once volunteered to res- ' pond ti> the call. The fires were lighted, the water boiled, the coffee made, uud soon the vehicle, drawn by twe powerfn-l horses, aod attended by half a score of willing labourers, whs 011 its way, from division to division. Up the hospital uve nue it rumbled and rolled, passed the long rows of white tents, stopping at this | cluster and that, giving to all from its | generous supply, Vou should have seen the wondering j look of the men as it passed by. They rolled themselves over to get a glimpse of i it. They stretched their necks for a i sight at it. The wounded heads forgot j to ache, and tlie wounded limbs almost forgot to cry for nursing in that moment !of eager curiositv. Was it a new sort of ambulance? Itdidu'tlook like one. What I did those three black pipes mean, and ! those three glowing lires ? Is it a steam | fire-engine, and are they going to give us j n shower-bath? liut the savory odor j that salutetl their nostrils, anil the deli cious beverage the engine poured into ! their tin cups, soon put the matter be yond all doubt. They soon found that there was 110 necromancy about it, for it had a substantial blessing for each one of them, and they gave it their blessings in return. One by one such as were able, crowded about it with curious faces, and the wagon, as it stood steaming and glow ing in the midst, was the thcuie of many affectionate comments. • I say, liill, ain't that a bully machine ?" '■Yes, nil", it's the greatest institution Jg ever saw." • * ••That's what you might call the Chris tian Light Artillery," says a third. "Good deal plcasanter ammunition in I it than the Itebs sent us this morning." "Well Doctor," said a delegate to a -urgeim. "what do you think of this?" ■ I thank the Lord for it. That's all 1 can say," was the reply. And so. on a sudden, the new inven tion was crowned with the praises and benedictions id'the admiring crowd. It was a marked feature in the work of the day.and must be set down as one of th« •peculiar institutions" of the Commis sion. Cuffix ami Ihille.ts for a Division. Mr. J. A. Cole has put the Cooking Wagon to a new use, refreshing our bat tle-worn veterans on the field. He says: ••The Coffee Wagon was kept at work, and was really a means of giving a great ileal of comfort, It was taken to the lines, where bullets flew about it, and every soldier in the division that-made the charge, capturing the fort on Cliap in's farm, had a good drink of hot coffee ■ —-what they had not had for three wet muddy days. The machine is getting to be very popular. J*ri i imtion Belter than Cure. R. C. Smedley, Ksq., M. I), writes: "During my stay with the sth Corps, 1 was chiefly occupied in distributing read ing matter in the hospitals, and to the soldiers at the front; also in carrying writing paper, canned fruits and meats to those in the front lines who were not well, and yet were not sick enough togo to the hospital. They were very grateful for those articles there; and 1 deemed it important that those who were ailing should have a change of diet, farina, com starch, canned milk, Jamaica ginger, &e.; for to prevent men from becoming so sick as to leave their, post of duty is sa ving to the government efficient working men. At all times I talked personally with them in regard to their spiritual welfare." I > 1 ESDI '•n Wwinttwlny, tlit* 1 tith inst., at the rwideut'6 of her N«>n Williuni, in ivnti township. Mm.

TIIR Secretary of the Treasury give* no tic* that sub scription* will bo roceivod ft>r Coupon Treasury Note*, payable three years frum Aug. l!*th, 1S(VI, with satni-su*> nual inter eat at a rata of seven and three-tenth* par cant, per annum—principal and Interost both to b« paid in lawful money. Theso notes will ba oonverttt>l* at tha option of the holder at maturity, Into six per cent gold bowing bonds, payable not lo*s than fiva nor moro than twouty years from their date, as the Government may elect. Tbe/ will be ls«ued in denominations of SSO, SIOO, S6OO, fl.OOtf and $5,000, aud all subscriptions must bo for fifty dolly® or some multiple of fifty dollars. The note* will be transmitted to tha owner* free ot transportation charges aa soon after tbo receipt of tha original Certificate of Deposit as they can be prepared. As tho notes draw interest from August 16, persona making deposits subsequent to that dato must pay tha inlet wit accrued from dato of note to date of deposit. Parties depositing twenty five thousand dollars and upwards for those uoteo at any one time will bo allowed a commission of one-quarter of one per cent., which will bo paid by the Treasury Department upon the receipt of a bill for the amount, certified by the officer with whom the doposit was made. No deduction* fur commission* must bo mado from tho deposits. Soecial Advantages of This Loan. It in A National Savings Uamd, offering a higher rate of interest than any other, and the but security. Any savings bank which pays ic. ,'cpositore In U. 8 Notes, considers that It Is paying in the beet circulating medium of tho country, and It cannot pay in anything hotter, for its own assets are either in government securities or In notes or bonds payablo In gevurnmout papor. It is oquatly convcnlot as a temporary or pormanent Investment Tho note* can always bo sold for within a fiaction of their face and arcnmulated interest, and ara the boot security with banks us collaterals for dhountt. Convertible into a Six per cant. 5-20 Gold Bond. In addition to tho very liberal interest on the notes for three years, this privilege of conversion is now worth about three per cent, per annum, for tha current rate for 6-' A) Bond* Is not loss than nine per cent, premium, and before tbe war the premium In stx per cont. O. 3. stocks was ovor cont. It will bo noon that the ac tual profit on this loan, at tho present market rate, is not less than ten per cent, por annum. Its Exemption from Slate or Munioipal Taxation. But aside from all tho advantages we ha*o enumera ted, a special Act of Congress exempli all londt and Treatury notei from local taxation. On the average, this exemption Is worth about two per cont. por smnum, occording to tho ruto of taxation in various parts of the country. It is believed that no securities offer so great Induce ments to lenders as those issue*-; by the government.— In all other foiins of indebtedness, tho faith or ability of private parties, or stock companies, or separate com munities, ouly, is pledged fsr payment while tho whole property of the country Is held to secure the discharge of all the obligations of the drilled States While the government offers tbo most liberal terms for Its loans, it helioves that tho very strongest appeal will be the loyalty and patriotism of the people. Duplicate cortificatos will be issued for all deposits The party depositing must endorse upon tbe original certificate the denomination of notoe required, and whether they are to be issued in blank or payable to or dor. When so ondorsod It must be left with the officer receiving the deposit, to be forwarded to the Treaeury Department.
