COUNTERFEIT ON TIIEBANK oFNORTu• lIMBERLAND.—Within a few dais past a suntber of counterfeit five dollar notes on the Bank of Northumbirland were' put into circulation in this place. They were listed February —, 1856, and signed by J. R. Priestly, Cashier, ands John Tag eart, President. it is well to observe that Mr. Taggart signed no inotes since Deceluber,"lBs4, and retired from office in 1855. These notes are circulated to deceive inexperienced persons. The pa per is rather light, and the shading over the vignette, under the words "Bank of Northumberland," is too heavy. The pa per ip [ the spurious notes is white, not the colored paper. now , used. These counter feits were detected in Philajolphia, but by soave mistake were ascribed to the Northumberland County Bank. CerThe Lycouling Gazette in speak ing of the death of Col. J. RICHTER JONES, of the 58th Penna, in which Reg iment are some of the Potter Boys, says : "This community has heard with deep reoret'of the death of the lion. J. Rich e) ter Jones, Colonel of the 58th, regiment -of Pennsylvania Volunteers. For many years Col. Jones was one of the judges of the Court of Common Pleas of Phila delphia city and county, associated with Judges King, Parsons and Campbell; but for some time past he has resided at Lewis' Lake, Sullivan county, and taken as active part -in public affairs in this section of the State.. In politics he was a radical Democrat ; ' but at the com mencement of the war he raised a regi went, ,was appointed its Colonel, and, has now laid down his life in defending that Constitution and government to which he was ever es devotedly attached. His regiment formed part of Gen. Lee's brig ade, at Newbern, N. C., with which he wade a gallant and successful reconnois sance,. the entire brigade being under his command, on the 22d ult. When Within a few miles of Kinston he surprised and captured two hundred rebels belonging to the 6,Bth North Carolina regiment, In cluding a number of officers, together with a field piece and a large quantity of small arms, equipments, &c. After the enemy bad been routed, and the victory won, he was shot behind a breastwork by a sharpshooter. In his death the gov ernment has lost one of its bravest and -cost gallant defenders, and the commu nity a noble, manly Christian gentleman, of sterling integrity and unsullied honor." Front the 46th. EL. JOURNAL : I enclose for publica tion a letter from Elisha H. Horton, Cor petal in Company H, 45th Regiment Pa. Volunteers. He was captured during Banks' retreat in the Shenandoah; was exchanged, and has now had, another taste of Rebel starvation. IS. CAMP PAROLE, A S'NAPOLIS, MD.,M3y . / 6, '63. NY DEAR PARENTS : By the kind hand of Providence I am_ again released from Rebeldoin, and have just arrived at this place. My health is good, consider. ing the treatment we have had. They nearly starved us to death The first three days and nights we did not get a mouth tul, and marched 35 miles in the time-- then they gave each` man a cupful of flour which we mixed up with cold water and oaked on a stick. They marched us all the way to Rich mond, fording streams waist deep two or three times a day. The last day we marched 35 miles and were then put in Libby prison.-306 men. in one room. There we lay for four days and had one: loaf of bread in the time; such as we get from Uncle Sam. in one day. We were then parolled and marched to CitY Point, by way of Petersburg, which was 37 miles in one day. _We were in their hands twelve days. -Here our trans ports were waiting for ns, and had plenty .orthe best kind of grub. There are eight from our Company with me, and also Walter Scott. I first found him: in Libby Prison. He is well and will write to his folks to-morrow. Ed. Kelly is with us; he is tough. We are is draw new clothes to-day. About Vicksburg. a O&iao, Friday, June 5,1863. .The dispatch boat Gen: Lyon, from Vicksburg, 'Monday night, has arrived.' Firing was kept up all of Monday. Geo. .human's troop . s on the right . wing, amid be seen In motion. • When the T..,yon left at midnight, a conflagration Was going onlin the city. Some supposed our shell's had set the buildings on fire, while others conjectured that the 'Rebels were destroying their supplies preparatory to surrendering. Gen. Grant's numbers and position must be absolutely impregnable in a few days. Particulars cannot be given, but they are of the. most cheering character. The steamers Chancellor and Atlantic, loaded with troops, when near Island No 62,Mh -Wednesdav, were fired on by guer rilltrm the Mississippi shore.' One capitiri and two privates were killed, and several wounded. • Putokpo, Fridiy, June 5, 1863.—A speoial . dlspatch from the rear of Vicks burg, dated Nay 31st„ says : The Nambardment of Vicksbuag con- tinues. All tbe guns, in position, opened fire at midnight, and continued-_ their fire until daylight. The rapidity of the firing was 'sippers!. leled. It is believed great damage was inflict ed by the fire. Twelve Rebels were captured at day- light yesterday, endeavoring to run our pickets and get into the city. Two hun dred percussion caps were found in their possessiou. One of the Rebels, a boy, came . out / of the city ten days ago, took the oath of allegiance, and was allowed to Ito home, five miles back. He will probably be condemned is a spy. Gen. Joe Johnston is reported to be moving toward. Jackson, but not in force sufficient to attack us. roil Hudson. The Morning Star from New Orleans brings the following: In the Department of the Gulf the whole interest in military affairs centered in Port ;Hudson. which was completely investedln the Government forces. Gen Banks 'commanded in person a force sup posed to be sufficient for its reduction The enemy's strength within their de fenceslis estimated at 'from 10,000 to .12,000;.tuen. Fig.hting was still in progress at the date of the departure of the Morning Star. Brig -Gen Sherman had waived at New Orleans on the night of the 28th, se,veretyAiut not dangerously wounded. The2d Louisiana negro regiment dis tinguished itself especially in charging upon the enemy's siege-guns, losing in killed pear 600. Gen Weitzel had captured a portion of the line of defense, and held one of the enernv's heaviest batteries. The North Star brings 5150.000 (:ilex icanj on freight from New Orleans, and 00. bales of cotton. NEW ORLEANS, May 29.—The fight at Port Hudson is fairly started. Rebel rumors are numerous on the street. MI that le known trustworthily is that the fight is a severe one. Brie.- Gen. Sherman is badly wounded in the leg, above the knee, and has been brought to the city. It is hoped his leg may be need. Col. Paine and srig.•Gen. Rick erson are reported killed—rumor says our leas in killed and wounded is nearly 3.000. .One of the ne ,, ro regiments raised here under Col Stafford; is said th be badly cut up. They fought gallantly. I can get no trustworthy information. But no one doubts the result we shall know this afternoon or to-morrow Banks went to take Fort Hudson. and I believe Le will do it. The Rebel force ie said to be near 20,000. 1 The Yazoo Clear- The :following Dispateb was received by Hon. Gideon Wells, under date of Cairo, May 30, 1863: Sift+l have the honor to inform you that the expedition I sent up the Yazoo, under eon:inland of Lieutenant Cowman der Walker, after taking possession of the forts at: Haines' Bluff. was perfectly sue cessfut.. Three powerful steamer rams were destroyed at Yazoo City, one a mon ster three hundred and ten feet long, seventy feet- beam, to be covered with 4- inch iron plates. A fine navy yard, with blacksmith shops. &.o„ were burned up The property destroyed and captured amounted to over two millions of dollars. Had the monster ram been finished she Would ;have given us some trouble. One battery was destroyed at Drury's Bluff. Our loss in the expedition is 1 killed, 7 wounded. DAVID D PORTER. • • • We have news by way of Nashville that op Thursday 1,200 Rebel cavalry attacked our garrison at Franklin and drove the men into their intreuchments. Our boys rallied quickly and repulsed the Rebels', who retired with prevy severe loss. 'At the same time, an attack was made upon our forces at Triune, mid here, too, Secesh got whipped, losing 200 men, 400 hOrses, and some camp and garrison equipage. Accepting the latest rebel statements of the' "Confederate' debt as aceu.ate. and dividinE it equally among the popu lation of the Southern States, it would amount to just one hundred and sixty three dollars for each person. The Nash ville Union remarks that "a poor man with a wife and six children, is the rebel states, will owe just one Thousand three hundred and four dollars." QuEsTrorm—The ~ ,N ashville Union brings the negra question right hone to the Copperheads thus: "We are; for the negro where he ii," say the .Copperheads. Very well. Cop= perheads, let us , see where the negro is.' Re is at work on rebel forts and entrench: meats; he is on the planlation'raising meat and bread stuffs for the rebel army ; he is, ie the factory weaving butternut jeans for the rebel soldiers; he is in the foundries Casting rebel cannon; he is in the shop making rebel shoes, hats, sabres, boots, bridles and saddles ; he is in -the camp waiting on rebel officers; he is in the forts working rebel guns, and he is in guerrilla bands to murder Union men. Had we not bettor take the negroes into our own hands, copperheads, Or do you prefer to let the negro stay where he is, and aid powerfully in destroying this Government? WORKING REBEL FARMS.—The War Department has issued an order requiring all the abandoned Rebel farms in Eleiuta elmar's Department to be under cultiva tion by the contrabands. This use of the .blacks may not be in accordance with the "philanthropical" views of the Improcti cables who look at him' as a sentimental rather than a practical ,institution ; but "plain people," who 410 not think that white men were necessarily made for drudgery and black teen for '•elegant leis ure," wt . !i commend it as practical and timely. There is no reason why the farina across the Potomac should remain untitled, especially as there are hundreds of stalwart contrabands ,eating the bread of idleness about Washington. Dayton, in Ohio; is a fine, flourishing city, but at the last election was fooled into voting for "Democratic" officers.— When Vallandighatu was arrested for trial, his friends collected ; burned down. a press of the Unbolt style; and other, houses, and cut the wires and railroad connections. Ali the while .the. Demo erotic Mayor and other sworn officers looked on and did nothing_ to restore or der. The military had to be called in to suppress the riot of these "friends of the Comtitution, "the Laws, free speech. and free press!' The law will now take its. course, and the honest people generally pay the damages caustd by their infatna tiou in voting for •'the Democracy " The whole cost, and punishment in jail in ad dition, should be put upon the Copper head leaders. Lyman Tremaine, a Union Democrat, at the Utica League demonstration, said Gen. Grant' had behaved very uvecnsti tutionally at Vicksburg? He had taken 70 pieces of artillery, and summarily ar rested' several thousand Democratic pris oners, without a warrant 'from a.Justice of the Peace, without an indictment by a Grand Jury, or trial by Petit Jury, and all because they were found in, armed rebellion against the Government. Prob ably Vallandigharn earl play lawyer for these imprisoned democrats, and get them released on a Habeas Corpus: Grant has violated the Constitution. In a recent speech in Boston, Gen. But ler averred that Louisiana was the first State to enlist volunteers whose faces were not as white as the facings.of their coats, and stated that Louisiana would be the first State to return to the Union. Recent advices from Europe state that the Polish struggle takes more and more the character of a religious as well as. of a national war. The Roman Catholic clergy preach openly in favor of the insur rection, and the Russian soldiers burn and defile the churchea and murder the Polish Priests and gentry. The Senate of Connecticut, on Wed nesday, by a vote of twelve to eight. re fused to restore to the Senate hail the portraits of es-Governors Toucey and Seymour, as evideOce of their loyalty was not produced, which according to the res olution banishing the pictures, must be forthcoming ere a restoration is in order. One of those rough episodes which mark new settlements in the far , West occurred in Atchinson, un the 23d ult. Two men, for attempting to rob a man, kill his wife, hang his son; and who sav agely heat an old wan fot concealing his money, were summarily tried and sent jail The jail was at once opened, and tae criminals hung by the populace. The -English papers are exercised about Americans recruiting in Ireland. The recruits from thence, are to enlist under railroad eontruotore for work with the spade and pick. The new State of West Virginia has just elected unconditioni re-onion eman cipationists for State officers. Sc. Louis has just given the candidate of the immediate emancipationists a rous ing majority for the constitutional con vention. W. M. Everts, now in London, states that he feels ass ired that the Biitisb Government, will in good faith, de its best to prevent the sailing of the rebel pirates. So much ground has been planted to cotton in Kansas this Spring that it will undoubtedly becotne'a staple crop in that State, if the present prove successful. The French have finally captureci Puebla, Mexico, and taken 17,00 h pris "ners. COPPERHEADS —lt is said that the first of these animals ever known on earth, was found coiled about a fruit tree in the garden of Eden, telling lies and preaching rebellion. Some days since a colored : woman, at Beaufort; §. 0., while engaged in her du ties-wuhing, folind a conical bornhishell, and not knowing what it-was, thought it would make a good etand for her livash kettle. She accordingly' lifted the kettle Tram the fire-i—the bottom covered: witti sparks—apd setting it on the shell i naused as explosibo, by which she was knocked down mid' received a bad wound on her arm, while he clothes disappeared: very mysteriously. Gen. Hooger foots up the official returns of the killed and wounded at the battle of Chancelloreville at 8,200, not - including the missing MEDI In Germania; Juve 1, 1863, of heart disease, Mrs I;ife of Charles Meine, aged 28 years.
