Died, n«ar Brownsdale, Butler county,
IV, oil the Ist of January, Sadie, infant
daughter of Alexander and Mary H. Dou
thett, aged nine months and twenty-one
day* Her dis&ase Was affection of the
brain Tlitaign so young, patience was
»h<e leading vha aeteristic throughout her
illnows-, which lasted six weeks.
Another.lamb of the fold has been ta
ken away from the troubles aud suffer
ings of a cold and stormy world.
Vnrsain it was given to you a tiny lit
'tle bud of promisenot to keep, but lent
to teach you a sad hut lasting lesson. It
'tarried with you just long enough to twine
itself in the very cords of your hearts .
'but the atmosphere of this world was un
' congenial, and theangelsvisited its cham
' ber and kissed its breath away. Weep
• not for it; but look away beyond the con
fines of the grave; away beyond this wea
ry world and rejoice that your little loved'
one lias passed from earth to heaven ; from
tohia land ot sorrow to that land ot pure
dcTrght. Father., mother, '- 1 here is a
light in the window for you.' May that
little bright star be as a magnet to wean
your affections from earth to heaven.
Dear Sadlrtttfe hn» pawed •'
Ah b teems and fa-leathe early flower,
A« calm as summer's balmy day,
A* sweetly as a summer ihower,
Hor oye lit up with heaven's light,
A smile of glory "n her face;
She'sgone wher» falls not sorrowsblight,
There disappotntments leave no trace.
That little cherub. I'M to yon

To all below adieu, adieu,
But a* it speeds it# glory sings.

MR. EDITOR Public attention being
directed by your article of the 2*>th inst.
to the increiise of tolls, asked for by this
company. I would beg leave to state the
following facts:
Ist. Said company has never paid one
cent in dividends upon the stock paid in
*'Bo,ooo—but yet owes about seven thou
sand dollars to creditors,
2nd. For the year ending, Ist of May
last, the expenses exceeded tbetollsabout
twenty-five hundred dollars. Ihe great
advance in the price of labor and mate
rials, while the tolls were fixed by law,
rendered such a result unavoidable.
The question then is. Shall the tolls
be increased sufficient to keep the road in
repair and pay its debts, or shall tho road
be abandoned?
This question has been answered by all
the principal men whose interests are af
fected as toll-payers by their signing pe
titions for an increase of toll. Those who
call on you and complain, must be consid
ered in favor of abandoning the road It
slinu/il he a sufficient answer to the caller
to remind him that ho is not compel
led to travel this road. In this county
public roads are found everywhere run
ning parallel to this road. The I'lank
lload Company has no monopoly of the
road business. County roads can be open
ed from point to point, and thus, this class
who wish to avoid toll accommodated. It
however they admit the necessity of trav
eling our road, because of the bad condi
tion of the other roads. 1 would ask. what
can they gain by reducing the plank road
to the same condition with them.
Y our remarks as to the propriety of any
increase beyond a certain point arc admit
ted, and it is not the intention to increase
the tolls beyond the present rates now
C°charged as Winter Rates, unless further
advances in labor and materials should
make it absolutely necessary.

Tho farmers of the State will be under
many obligations to Mr. McKee, of Alle
gheny, for his consideration in offering
and urging the passage of a bill which, as
the title indicates, is " for the protection
of sheep, and taxation id' dogs within this
Commonwealth." It. conforms as near i>s
possible to the Ohio law upon the same
subject, and contains eleven sections,
which, in brief, provide that every dog
shall be registered annually on or before
the first of May, the register to contaii. a
, descriptii n of the dog. its sex, size, and
, color. The assessor on making the rec
ord shall give the owner of the animal,
-upon the payment of two dollars for a
v malc and five dollars for a female dog. a
, certified copy of the register, and upon
each shall be a collar, on which shall be
marked the owners name. Of the mon
ey received for the register tweuty-fivc
cents .shall be retained by the Assessor,
•and the balance shall goto the school
•fund of the township, ward or borough in
which the registry is made. The owner?
of the doss are to be held responsible for
any damage the dog may do. n'.ul any per
son who tails to register his canine, is to
pay a flue of fifteen dollars. Every dog
..running at large without a collar is to be
killed by the comtutiles, the officers afore
said receiving fifty cents for every one
ithus slaughtered, and whore anv officer
serving under this act refuses to perform
his duties, mulcted in a tine of not less
than one hundred dollars nor more than
8300.
More railroads are needed in tho oil re
gions. Such appears to be the determiu
ation of some of the residents of the hills
and valleys of the petroleum counties
whether the roads be worked by horse oi
steam power. Mr. Iloge has submitted :
bill which has for its object the inoorpo
ration of the Franklin and Slippery Hoc!
Railroad, with power to build a single o
double track from Franklin to the coa
fields of Butler, aud such branches of lat
eral roads in Butler as they deeui neces
eary. They arc also to have the right t<
connect with any road now or hweafte
to be constructed in Butler. Tho capital
stock is to be one million dollars, and the
incorporators : H. C. McCoy, L. "■ liodg
ers, James S. Myers, Thomas Bobinson,
•lohn M. Thompson. James M. Breden,
E. I). DeWolf, C. Heedrick and P. Me-
Guffee.
The Cherry Bun anil Oil Creek Bail
road Company is also to be incorporated,
if a bill offered in the ll..use should pass
Jas. McGrew, J no. Warren, Jno. Watt,
L. I). V. Mason, and Bateman Goe, are
named as Commissioners, and the road is
to run from Oil City to the Story Faun,
on Oil creek. Branches can be made up j
the valley of Cherry Run to Plumner,and j
to any point beyond, in \ euango county, ;
which the directors may deetn advisable;
and the main line and branches are to be j
operated entirely by horse power. The j
company arc to establish rates for the
transportation of passengers and freight,
but those rates are not to exceed ten cents
per mile for passengers, twenty cents for
each barrel of oil, ten cents for an empty
barrel, and twenty five cents per hundred j
tor all other kinds of freight.
Many of your readers are doubtless anx- [
ious to know what arc the provisions of j
Mr. Lowrey's bill providing for the sub
scription of the unsubscribed stock of the I
Erie and Pittsburg Railroad,and fortheir |
information I would state that it author- ]
izes the Directors to receive subscriptions
for any part of the unsubscribed stock ol j
the Company under such regulations as ;
they shall prescribe. The new subscri
bers are to have the same rights as those
who originally took stock, provided that
each shall pay at the tune of subscribing
five dollars on each share.
The bill relative to the Toughiogheny
Navigation Company, read by Mr. Rig
haui. was based upon a memorial sent
hereby General Herman Ilaupt, who by
the way, it is stated, purposes removing in
the Spring to the western part of Penn
sylvania, aud who is the lessee of the
Company. It gives them the right to
charge such tolls as will pay the expense
of operation and repairs, and provide for
renewals and the payment of six percent,
upon the actual cost of improvements,
but all access over six per cent, is to be
paid into the State Treasury for the re
lief of families of volunteers, or to such
other objects as the Legislature may di
rect. This disposition of an excess is cer
tainly a commendable precedent, which
miglit be followed by other corporations.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.
SENATE. —Mr. Conness reported favor
ably on the bill authorizing tho construc
tion of a Iri Ige over the Ohio at Louis
ville.
Mr. SI, rm n called up the bill to issue
Treasury ot in lieu of any bonds au
thorized" by tlie act of June 30th, 1804.
The billjwrs pa?s?d without an enduunt.
The Ito nil making an appropria
tion for the .Military Academy was passed.
Also for the support of the Postoffice
Department for the next fiscal year.
The Secretary of War, in response to
the resolution, replies that commission
i ers to pay loyal owners for slaves muster
-1 ed into the military service in the border j
; States have been appointed for Maryland
| and Delawaro, but not yet for any other
j State. Also, that the President has or
i dercd that the rolls of slaves mustered
| into service should not be given, as it i
gave room for fraud.
The Senate resumed the consideration
of the resolution advising retaliation up
on the rebels for cruelty to our prisoners
in their hands.
Mr. Davis, who was entitled to the
floor, advocated the inexpediency of pas
sing the proposition. Mr. Davis advoca- \
ted to what he termed tho failure of the
administration to receive the exchange
; of prisoners when it could have been done
so on honorable terms.
Mr. Howard replied to the arguments
of the opponents of the retaliatory rncas
ure.
Mr. Wilson moved that all the papers
j and resolutions submitted on this subject
; be recommitted to the Committee on Mili
j itary Affairs. He had no doubt that the
Committee after having heard the debate
on matter could frame resolutions that
would pass.
Several Senators here arose, and Mr.
I'omeroy in the Chair, recognized -Mr.
Wade, who gave way to Mr. Hendricks
for a personal explanation in reply to
some remarks from Mr. Howard.
Mr."Hale said 1 want the fifth rule of
the Senate read. The rule referred to was
read. It provides that when two mem
bers claim the floor at once, the Chair
shall recognize the one who shall have
risen first.
Mr. Hale—l want to call the attention
of the Senate to his rule. I was entitled
to the floor, and intended to offer some
re marks on the subject, but the Chair
docs not recognise my right.
| Here Mr. Wade protested against rcc
; ommiting the subject as proposed by Mr.
\\ ilson. The resolution did not go far
enough. The preamble did not reach one
tenth part of the cruelties inflicted upon
our soldiers by the rebels, aud he was in
favor of the fullest and freest retaliation
to scan re justice to our soldiers who had
fallen iuto the hands of the rebels. Sup
pose we send Commissioners, tlioy would
have no better success than Blair hud,
and God knows we are all tired of his
mission. What did he do? He took off
his cap to Jeff. Davis and told him he was
a pretty good fellow. If we must send
Peace Commissioners we had better make
some other selection. [Laughter iu the
galleries.] Mr. Wade continued his re
marks for some time advocating the prin
ciples of retaliation.
Mr. Foster rose to reply to some allu
sion? made to his speech by Mr. Wade,
who had said that he (Mr. Wade) would
stand by aud see a rebel staive to
death.
Mr. Wade—l would, if it was to serve
one of our own uicn, or make the rebels
treat them properly.
Mr. Johnson took the floor to advocate
the motion to refer the subject of a mili
tary committee, and addressed the Seuate
at leugth on the subject.
he Senate weut iuto executive session,
aud after adjourned.
—There are two fruits of folly visible
- in the world; men will not do when they

IN order to secure the assistance and co-operation of
tho pgople in the endeavor to keep the Enrol ment List*
continually correct, the Enrolling Boards have been di
rected to have eopiew of said lists kept open to the ex
amination of tin public at all proper times, and shall
give public notice thai any person may appear before the
Board and have any man slii< ken off the list, if he ran
show, to the sati-faction of the Board, that tho perd >u

as to render the person not a proper subject for enroll
ment under the law ami Regulations ;
sth. Having sei ved in the Military or Naval service
two years during the present war and been honorably
discharged.
E-peeially Civil officers, Clergymen, and all prominent
citizens, are invited to appear at all tiuies before the
Board to |M>int out eirors in the Lists, and to give sucii
information in their posMmsion as may aid in the correc
tion and revision thereof
They Mhoiild understand that It is plainly for the in
terest of each snbdlstiict to have stricken from the Lists,
all names improperly enrolled, because an excess of
names Increases the quota called for from such sul»-dis
triots; ami that it in equally f>>r the interest of each per
son enrolled in a given sub-district to place upon the List*
oil persons in the sulMlistrict liabte to do military duty,
Ims ausethe the number to d aticuf'om, thelent
thechanee that any fMirticular indivklual Will be drawn.
It in the personal interest' of every eurulh*d man, that
Ihequot-iin which hu is concerned shall not be made too
large, ami that hir own chance for draft shall not be un
. justly increases!; both the>e objects will be attained if
all p;trtie» will aid iu striking out the wrong names and
i putting in the right ones. Especially in this the inter
est of those drafted men who by putting in Substitutes
themselves liable to draft, have secured exemption which
by thetermsof the holds good only until thepreo
ent Enrollment is exhau"ted in their Men
who are over 45 years of i|ge,atid in consequence excused
by Law from the performance of duty in the field, owe it
to the cause and the country to take a and adiw
part in the correction of the Enrollment Lists,a military
service of the first importance. The Ijaw requiiea that
the quotas shall be as«igned iu proportion to the enroll
ment. and the fairness aud justice of this m»»de of deter
mining the amount of military service due from each
and every section of the country, can no t doubted if
the enrollment i* made as nearly perfect as it is practi
[ cable, to make it. The amount of service due to the
Nation from every Town or County, Is thus laid fairly
> and plainly before the citi/.ene. and it is expected that a
I higher motive than a selfish interest will prompt all U>
do their share iu perfecting the enrollment, and securing
a just and efficient execution of the laws for raising troops.
p whenever it becomes uecessaiy to apply them.

U. S. 7-30 Loan.
Tm Secretary of the Treasury gives notice that snb»
ecriptions will be received for Coupon Treasury Ffol«* t
payable three yeara from Aug. 15th, 1864, with semi
nual interest at a rate of aeven and three-tsntha per
cent, per and intereat both to be paid,
in lawful money.
These notes will be convertible at the option of the
holder at maturity, intoaix per cent, gold bearing bond*,
payable not less than five nt»r more than twenty yeara
from their date, aa the Government may elect. They
will be issued in denominations of S6O, fIOO, S6OO, SI,OOO
and $5,000, and all subscriptions mast be for fifty dollar#"
or some multiple of fifty dollars.
The notea will be transmitted V> the owners free oi
transportation charges as soon after the receipt of the
original Certificate of Dcpoeit aa they can be prepared.
As the notes draw interest froiu August 15, persons
making deposits subsequent to that date must pay the
interest accrued front date of note to date of deposit.
Parties depositing twenty-fire thousand dollars and
upwards for these notes at any one time will be allowed
a commission of one-quarter of one per cent., which will
be paid by the Treasury Department upon ths receipt of
a bill for the amount, certified by the officer with whom
the deposit was made. No deductions for commissions
must be made from the deposits.
Soecial Advantages of This Loan.
IT IS A NATIONAL SAVI.NUS BAND, offering a higher rata
of interest than any other, and the best tecurity . Any
savings bank which pays its depositors n U. 8. Notes,
considers that it is paying lu the beat circulating medium
of the country, and it cannot pay in anything hatter, for
its own asset" are either in government securities or In
notes or bonds payable in gevcrumeut paper.
It is equally convcuiet as a temporary or per msusut
investment. The notes can always be sold for within a
fraction of their face and accumulated interest, and are
the beat security with banks aa collaterals for dlaoants.
Convertible into a Six per cenL 5-20 Gold Bond.-
In addition to tho very liberal intereat on the uotea for
three years Uiis privilege of conversion la now wortto
about three per cent, per annum, for the current rate lbs
5-'2O Bo'.ils is not less than nine per cent, premium, ami
before the war the premium in six per cent. U. 8. stocks
waa over twenty per ceut. It will be seen that tho ac
tual profit on this loan, at the present market rate, la not
less than ten per cent, per annum.
Its Exemption from State or Municipal Taxation.
But aside from all tho advantages we ha'** enumera
ted, a special Act of Congress exempts all bondt and
Treatury note* from heal taxation, tjp tha average,
this exemption is worth about two per celit. per annum,
occ nling to tho rate «>f taxation in various parts of the
country.
ltia believed that no secnrltiea offer so great induce
ments to lenders aa those is«ucu by the government
In all other forms of indebtedness, the faith or ability
of private parties, or stock companies, or aeparata com
munities, only, Is pledged far payment, while the whole
property of the country is held to secure the discharge
of all tho obligations of tho L'niied States.
While tho government offers tho moat liberal terms
for its loans, it believes that the very stroiigeMt appeal
will be the loyalty and patriotism of the peoples
