THE AMERICAN CITIZEN.
Butler, Pa., Wednesday, Aug. 9, *865
Harrisville.
This place is beautifully situated in the
Northwestern part of Butler county, on
the road leading from Pittsburgh to
Franklin; about 53 miles from the former
atd 20 miles from the latter; and is 21
miles from Butler boro.; 24 miles from
New Castle and 13 from Mercer, and con
tains over 300 inhabitants. There are
three churches in the Borough and the
U. I'. C. one mile west. There are four
stores, all doing a good business; one
foundry, not now in operation, lately pur
chased by Mr. Bigham of Centreville,
who will open up business in a short time.
There arc three blacksmith shops, 1 tan
nery, one cubioet shop, one pottery, one
wagon shop, three saddle and harness
shops,3 shoe shops, 2 temperance hotels, 1
grocery and one place—generally cal%! a
doggery, where they profess to sell drinks
that do not intoxicate, but persons have
been seen emerging from the same with
heavy heads and limber legs; and the
good people of the Borough and vicioity
have determined that its quarters must be
moved to some other place, and those who
are acquainted with the citizens of that
■ locality know full well that they are in
earnest, with regard to that which is cal
culated to destroy the morals of any com
munity.
There are three Physicians in the lim
its of the Borough ; 1 select and 2 com
mon schools.
The surrounding country is well im
proved ; beautiful and well Cultivated
farms surround the place. The Bear
Creek 11. It. part of which is nrftv being
put under coutract, will run, if not di
rectly through, at least near the Borough;
this fact added to the pleasantness of
the situation, the intelligence and moral
ity of the people will no doubt m ike it a
desirable locality in which to settle. We
hope that all the sanguine expectations of
the citizens of the Boro. and vicinity
may be realized and that prosperity and
happinesc may attend them.

The following is an extract from a let
ter received here today from Capt. .1, N.
Moore, Assistant Quartermaster in charge
of the party sent to Andersonville, <ia.,
to lay out the soldiers' cenietty there.—
The letter is dated July 26th : We are
encamped about one hundred yards from
the prison pen of Andersonville, and it
is in th« fullest sense of the term, noth
ing more than a pen —a human pen
where about thirty thousand of our sold
iers were huddled together in an enclo
sure less than two hundred yards long
and scarcely one hundred yards wide,
where they were exposed tn The rays of
an almost tropical sun, and the shivering
winds of winter.
More than filteen thousand men worn
out by exposure and suffering are buried
here. This prison pen should never be
permitted to bo destroyed, but should
stand until its stockades fall to the ground
by decay, that unbelievers in the North
may look on this ground and convince
themselves of the inhuman cruelties per
petrated by the rebels upon our prisoners.
There are about 14,000 head-boards yet
to letter.

A new kind of coercion is recorded
of the colored people of Kentucky,
on election, opposite Newberg, Indi
d ana. They threatened to leave,
unless their masters or employers
•would vote the straight-o'it T'nion
ticket; and as the "Conservative
chaps" would not comply, thy ne
groes were as good as their word,
and left them to hoe their own corn
and potatoes, and sucker tbeii ows
topacco.
WASHINGTON, August 9. —No per
manent appoiutment is jet to be
made to supply the vacancy in the
Bureau of iSa' igation, occasioned by
the d( at!i of Captain Drayton. Ad
miral Porter has, however, been as
igned to duties as chief ad interim.
Several applications having been
made to the Commissianer of Pensions
under the mistaken impresjion that at
the last session of Congress the rate
of pension for the loss of a limb had
been increased, it is officially announc
ed that no such change in *.he Pen
sion law for l6ss of a limp has been
tr.ade. An army pensioner, for euch
loss, receives $8 per month, if he was
a private. A non-commissioned offi
cer or mil ician, receives 315 per
month if he vas a first lieutenant, S2Q
if a capta'n #25 if a major §3O if a
liutenaut colonel or of ar.y higher
grade. The same rates, according
to rank, are applicable to navy pen
sions.
It is positively ascertained that
there are no counterfeits on notes of
the National Hanks in circulation.
The Commissioner of Internal Reve
nue rules that a deed executed
September Ist, " i 862, if it was deliv
ered prior to that date, requires no
stamp, and may be admitted to re
cord ; but : fde ivered since that date,
i' should be stamped- Bonds given
in actions of replevin.- and in actions
commenced b" capias, are held to be
bonds required in legal proceedings,
and are therefore exempt from stamp
duty.
THK GREAT CABLE FAILURE,
—There can 110 longer be any doubt
of the failure of the Atlantic cable,
which, we may conclude, will for the
present end all such enterprises on
the other side of tho ocean. The
British have tried their hands often
enough to be satisfied that it is not in
them to girdle the worid— so far as
the Atlantic is concerned. Perhaps
the Yankees will think it best to
show them how. As to that, howev
er, our sympathies for tho present
are with the ov-.-rland enterprise go
ing forward with so much zeal and
success. Experience has wakened
confidence in submarine cables, not
one of tho many laid down having
continued to be serviceable any eon
ciderab e time. If the cable has
failed, science has gained something
in the experiments that have been
mad ', —but we doubt if that will sat
isfy the English stockholders

THE LIFE OF LINCOLN. —It was an
nounced some time ago that the lion R.
Dale Owen was about to commence wri
ting the Life of President Lincoln ; and
wc now learn that the task has been com
menced. and so laborous is it considered
that it will require two years to complete
it. His publisher, so cognizant is he of
the magnitude of the work and the dis
tinguished ability brought to bear upon
it, pays Mr. Owen three thousand dollars
in advance, and fifteen thousand when
the work is ready for the press. It was
iluc tu tho lifo and memory of this great
and geod miin that his biographer should
lie one of the firs, men of the nation j
and we are free to say that in no better
hands could this sacred task be confided.

Ry authority of the Secretary of the Treasury, the
undersigned, the General Subscription Agent for th
sale of United States Treasury Notes, oflVrs to Iho
public tho third series of Treasury Note*,bearing seven
and three-tontlis per cent, lntorest, per annum, known
as the
7.30 ATS.
These Notes are issucvl under date of July l&th,
and are payable three years from that date, in currency,
or are convertible at the option of the holder into
TJ. S. 5-20 Six per cent.
GOLD-BEARING EONDb.
These bonds are now worth j handsome premium, and
are exempt, a.* are all tho Governmens Ponds, Jrom
Slat>', County, and Municipal taxation, which adds
from one to thru per rent, per annum to their rahi', ac
cording to the rato levied upon other property. The
interest is payable ncmi-annually by conpons attnenod to
each note, which may be cutoff and sold to an banker.
The interest nt 7>!U) per cent, amounts

Notes of all denominations named will be romptly
furnished upon receipt of subscriptions.
The notes of this Third Series are precisely similar in
form and privileges to the Seven-Thirties already sold,
except that the Government reserves to Itself the option
of paying interest in gold coin at 6 per cent., instead of
1 7 3-10thf in currency. Subscribers will deduct the in
terest in currency up to July loth, at the time when
they subscribe.
The delivery of the notes of this third series of the
Seven-Thirties will commcnco oa the Ist <-f June, and
will be made promptly and continuously aftor that date
The Bli«ht change made in the conditions of this
THIRD BERIEB affects only tho matter of interest.—
Tho payment in gold, if made, will be equivalent to the
currency interest of tho higher rate.
The return to specie payments, in the event of which
only will the option to pay interest in Gold be avail
ed of, would so reduce and equalize prices that puerhoses
made with six per cent. In cold would be fully equal Jo
thoso made wtyh seven and tluco-teqihspcr cent, iu cur
rency, This Id
THE ONLY LOAN IN MARKET
now offered by tno Government, and its superior ad
vantagesmake it tho
Great Popular Loan of the People.
Less than $230,000,000 of the Lo.tn authorised by the
last Cougress are now oa the market. This amount, at
the rate at which it is being will all bo sub
scribed for within sixty days, when the notes will un
doubtedly cammnnd a premium, as has uniformly beon
the caso on closing the subscriptions to other L^anrt.
In order that citizons of every tewn aod section o!
tho conntry may bo afforded facilities for taking the loan
the National Banks, State I'anks, and Privato Rankers
throughout tho country have generally agreed to receive
subscriptions at par. Subscribers will Reb el their own
