tVT' The first sevtfrc storm of tho sea
son has parsed away—to-day, (Tuesday)
the sun is warm, and the people can be
Seen enjoying it at every corner. Our

is the time to prepare for winter.
A ir«m»o Burned.
On Sabbath morning last, thedwelling
housc occupied by the family of Mr.
George Lester, (who is irs the army) sit
uated in Penn township, caught fire and
was entirely consumed.* Some grain and
provisions were lost, but the most of the
families clothing and other moveables
were saved. We trust the neighbors of
the unfortunate faJhily, will see to it. that
the family will not suffer in consequence
of this serious accident.
SHERMAN. —No news from him save
through rebel sources, which of course
will bo colored, but even through this
channel, enough is known to warrant us
in believing that he will make his march
through Georgia to the seaboard without
serious opposition, destroying public prop
erty and Rail Roads as he goes.

AN ALLEGED BUROLER ARRESTED.— J
On the night of the Union Convention |
at Bakertown, a store at Glade Mills But
ler county, was entered and robbed of a
large amount of goods. Suspicion fell
upon a man named John Kearston, a resi
dent of Butler county, and a Warrant was
issued for his arrest. He eluded the vigi-<
lance of the officers, and succeeded in
making his escape. A few days ago, in
formation was received in Butler, that
Kearston was at Wheeling, when Arm
strong Bennison, was detailed togo to that
city ami endeavor to effect his arrest.
The officer, upon his arrival at Wheel
ing, secured the services of the city polise, j
and after considerable seal eh the fugitive
was discovered and taken into custody.
Officer Bennison arrived in Allegheny
last evening, with his prisoner, and placed
him in the Allegheny watch-house for
.safe keeping; lie will be taken to Buter
to-day.
Kearston has been suspected for some
months for being concerned in various
robberies in Butler county, but he has
heretofore avoided detection. There are
a number of charges against him, and it
is probable he will now receive his de
serts. lie denies, in the most positive
terms, any connection wi'h tlie robbery
of which he is accused, but we understand
that there will be no difficulty in proving
the charge— Pittsbuiyh Gazette.

from the military hospitals about 1
Washington has issued an order, set- ,
ting forth that the transfer of bodies j >
from the original coffins must take
place after sundown at the grave, and
• the old coffin, with all apparel that (
may be taken from the deceased, .
again be deposited in the ground. ;
The mound on the grave must be re- !
made, the headboard reset, and the 1
name of the locality where j*e- ■
mains were taken thereon lettered, '
together with the date of his removal. ]
Undertakers are therefore required j
to place the bodies in a substantial ,
air-tight coffin that will effectually I,
prevent any odor arising from the s
dead. Failure to comply with this ! j
order will subject the offenders to ar-' 1
rest and punishment. I j

for two ami a half months, has now fallen asleep, wo
truKt.in Jesus. Hi* departure was sudden—was *iik
but a short time, but able 9»g« ground, till almost sud

ed—in short, the whole ncrvouti system paraii/.rd, and in
that condition he lay over forty-eight hour*, and then the
soul took it* departure. Many will mourn at hi* "depar

Its Exemption from State OP Municipal Taxation.
Dut aside from all the advantages wo ha"e onumcn*
ted, a special Act of Congress exempts ull bond* and
Treasury notes from local tarnation. Ou tho average,
this exemption is worth about two per cent, per aunum,
occording to the rate of taxation In various parti of tho
count rv.
Ith believed that no Bounties offer so great Induce
ments to lenders as those tatted by tho government.—-
In all other forms of indebtedness, the faith or ability
of private parties, or stock companies, or separate com
munities, ouljr, N pledged far payment, while the whole
property of the country is held to secure the discharge
of all the obligations of tho Untied States.
While the government offers the most liberal terms
for Its loan?, it believes that the very strougest appeal
will bo the loyalty and patriotism of tho people.
Duplicate certificates will ho issued for all deposits.—
The party depositing must endorse upon tho original
certificate the denomination of notes required, and
whether they aro to be Issued In blank or payable to or
