change prisoners, unless slaves recaptured
by the South were included, has consigned
thousands of our soldiers to prison and
death in the confederacy. At Anderson
ville alone it is estimated that eight thou
sand of our men have died from want of
proper care and food from exposure, and
tens of thousands are yet undergoing a
lingering death for the same reason.
The issues which have been raised be
tween the parties in the progress of the
contest have been sharply defined. In
tracing them, it will be seen that in each,
the judgment of the Democratic party
has been sustained by the history of the
war. The predictions of tho Abolition
party have in every instance been falsified
by the history of the war. The Presi
dent and his partisans now demand from
the people an endorsement of their re
peated and enormous failures. They de
mand license still to repeat them at the
cost of the treasure and blood of our peo
ple. Are the people prepared to comply
with their demands ?
$y The London 2vnes, in an articlo
upon crime in tbe English metropolis,
ears:
Since' tho memory of man. crime has
never been more rife, guilt never more san
guinary, vice never mora depraved, than in
this year of grace 1864."
The same may be said of this country
and in both cases it is probably true that
the causes may be found in the demorali
sation attending the gigantic civil contest
in the United States. That the great
criminality wlich springs from this war
fhould be confined to this country, is not
more likely than it is that the commercial
disturbances which attend the conflict
should not extend to other communities.
We know that certain influences created
by our war have exerted the liveliest effect
in England, as may be seen the distress
which has fallen upon the English labor
ing classes, and also in the financial fail
ures that are just now shaking Great
Britain from centre to outskirts. In the
fame manner it is probable that the gene
ral and intense immorality which has been
created here in consequence of the war
has overflowed the boundaries of this
country, and is now pouring its filthy cur
rents across even distant Englttnd. The
moral disease which has been engendered
by our unnatural contest has not only
spread all through society in the United
States, carrying with it disease and death,
but it has spread to other lands, and bids
trtir to extend its virus through the veins
ot" all civilization. The leprosy of war is
fastened ujton us, and is extending its pol
lution to all mankind.
No U tter commentary is needed upon
the deadly and malignant disease that has
fastened itself upon the vitals of this peo
ple than its fearful effects upon us, and
taint with pestilential vapors the moral
atmosphere of a country separated from
u? by a broad ocean.

The Constitution of' the United States
with explanatory notes-for 6a1e by
JAMES MURRAY:
IS HO LOAN!
The Secretary of the Treasurer give no
tice that subscriptions will bo received for
Coupon Treasury Notes, payable three years
from August 15th, 1864, with semi-annual
interest at the rate of seven and three-tenthi
per cent, per annum principal and interest
both to be paid iu lawful none-.
These notes will be converlable at the
rptioncf.tho holder at maturity, into six
per cent., gold bearing bonds, payable not
less than five nor more than twenty year a
from their-date, as the Government may
elect. Thev will lj issued in denomination
of $50, $100, $500 $l,Cf0 and $5,000, and
all subscriptions mu.-t be for fifty dollars or
some multiple of fifty dollars.
The notes will be transmitted to the own
ers free of transportation charges as Boon
after the receipt of the original Certificate
of Deposit as they can be prepared.
As the notes draw interest frqra August
15, perse us making deposits subiggqaeut to
that date must pay tiie interest accrued from
date of note to date of deposit.
Parties depositing twenty-five thousand
dollars and upwards for these notes at any
time will be allowed a commission cf one
quarter of one per cent , which will b
paid by the Treasury Department upon tbe
receipt of a bill for the amount, certified to
b3' the officer with whom it was made. Ni

SPECIAL ADVANTAGE of TniS LOAN.
It is a National Savings Bank, offering b
higher rate of interest than any other, and
the best security. Any Savings Bank which,
pays its depositees in U. S. Notes, considers
that it is paying in the best circulating me
dium of the countrj', and it cannot pay in
anything better, for its own asets are either
in government securities or in notes or bond
payable iu government paper.
It is t-quallj- convenient as a temporary or
permanent investment. The notes can al-wa-s
be sold for within a fraction of their
face and accumulated interest, and arethe
best securit3' with bank as collaterals for
discounts.
Convertible into a Six pee cest 5-2-3
Gold Bond.
Iu addition to the very liberal interest on
thi notes for three years, this privilege of
conversion is now worth about three per
cent, per annum, for the current rate for
5-20 Bonds is not less than nine per cent,
jirewium and beiore the war the premium
