Commission (which has for its object the supply of
materials for the sick and wounded of our army,
mere erpepially after a battle) it was unanimously
agreed to hold a for on the 13th of June, for the
purpose of r aising funds towards the benevolent as
*Wolin Above mentioned. It Is thought advise,-
t a te (p interest the people of Franklin minty ip
this laudable enterprise, so that a united effort op
the part of the (flagella pf one of the richest and
most populous countiee in the State may be suc
cessful and worthy of the papee and the people, In
furtherance of, this object, it is suggested, that. the
prominent ladies of the large towns of Woynesbero',
Oreencastle, Mercerthurg, T l ontion, Orretown and
Fannettsburg, with. all the villegge of the county,
should confer among thommelves and pct with our

could be seperately represented at the fair anti hare

interested in this movement, hundreds of our young
men, our fathers. husbands and brothers, are gird

significance the post withers into forgetfulness. No
human sagacity an tell when or where the blow
may be struck, butt we all know that in that fatal

widowed and broken hearted, the refinent,tide of
war may bring the thunder'of t ertillery th'eur very

THE PILOT:--GREE
U B. 10-40 BONDS.—These Bonds are is
• sued under the Act of Congress of March 8
1864, which provides that all Bonds issued under
this Act shall be EXEMPT FROM TAXATION by
or under any state or municipal authority. Sub
soriptions to these Bonds are reeeived in United
States notes or notes of National Banks. They are
TO BR REDEEMED IN COIN, at the pleasure of
the Government, at •any period not less t 4 an ten nor
more than forty years from tlialr. date, and until their
redemption FIVE PER CENT. INTEREST WILL
BE PAID IN COIN, on Roads of not olfer one bun,
dred dollars annually and on all other ?louds semi.
annually. The interest is peyabla on the first clays
of March end Septereher lA mph year.
Subscribers will receive either Registered er
ponßonds, es they may prefer. Registered Rends
lire recorded on the books of the U. S. Treasnrer,
and can be transferred only on the owner's order.
Coupon Bonds are payable to bearer, end are more
convenient for commercial uses,
Subscribers to this-loan will have the option of
having their Bonds draw interest from March let,
by paying the accrued interest iq coin—for in; VniT
led States notes, .or the notes of Natignal Banks,
adding fifty per cent. for premium,) or receive them
drawing interest from the date of subscription and
laposit. As these Bonds are
Rxerript from Stale or lifignicfpal Taxation,
their value is increased from one to three per cent.
per annum, according to the rate of tax levies in
!Arlon' parts of the country.
At the present rate of premium on gold they pay
OVER Eicwir PER CANT. INTEIPST
irt currency, and are of equal convenience as a per
manent' or temporary investment.
It is believed gmt. no securities offer so great in
dueements to lenders as the various descriptiqns of.
U. S. Bonds. ,In 411 other 'forms of indebtedness,
the faith or ability qf private parties or stock com
punies or seperate pqmrounities only is pledged for
payment, while for the debts of the United States
the'whele prpperty pf the c:mniry is holden to se-.
cure the payment of both principal and interest in
eoin. , .
These Bonds may he subscribed for in stme from
$5O pp to at magnitude. on the same terms, and
are thus made equally available , o the atpallest•
lender and the largest capitalist . . They can be con
verted into money at any moment, and the holder
will hare'the benefit of the interest.
• It may he useful to state in this conneption that
the total Funded Debt of the United States'on Which
interest is payable iu gold, on the 3d day pf March,
1d64. was .$768,975,000. The interest op this debt
fer the coming fiscal year will be $45,037,126,
while the customs revenue in gold for the current
fiscal year, ending .1 tine 30th, 1864, has been so far
at the :lee of over $100,000,000 per annum.
It will be seen that even the present gold reven
ues of the Governmentare largely in excess of the
wants of the Treasury for,the payment of gold in
terest, while the recent increase of the tariff will
doubtless raise the an'tlifti receipts frpm customs
on the same arpottnt q jpiportatious, ! $150,000,-
000 per annum.

Fr HE &weary of the Treasury halt not yet given
I notice of any intention to withdraw this pop
ular Loan from §ale.at Par, and until ten days no
tice is given, the undersigned, "GENERAL
SUBSCRIPTION AGENT," will continue to supply
the public.
The whole amount of the Loan authorized is Five
Hundred Millions of Do NEARLY FOUR
HUNDRED MILLIONS HAVE BEEN ALREADY
SUBSCRIBED FOR AND PAID INTO THE TREA
SURY, mostly within the lust . seveit months. The
large demand from abroad, and,the rapidly increas
ing home demand for use as the basis for circula.
tion by National Banking Associations now organ
ising in all parts of the country. will, in a'very
short period, absorb the balance. Sales have late
ly ranged from ten to tifteeh millions weekly, fre
quently exceeding three millions daily, and it is
well known that. the Secretary of the Treasury has
maple . and Unfailing resources in the Duties on
Imports and Internal Revenues, and in the,issua of
the Interest bearing,Legel Tender Treasury Notes,
it is alinost a certainty that he will not find it. ne
cessary, for a lan,g time to come, to seek a market
for any other long or permanent Loans, THE IN
TEREST AND PRINCIPA.L OF WHICH ARE PAY
ABLE IN GOLD.
Prudence and self-interest must ,force the minds
of those contemPlating the formation of National
Banking Associations, as well as the minds of all
who have idle money on their hands, to the prorept
conclusion that they should lose no time in sub.
scribing to this-most popular Loan. , It will soon
be beyond their reach, and advance to a handsome
premium, as was the result with the "Seven Thirty"
Loan, when it was all sold and could no longer be
subscribed for at par.
IT IS A SIX PAR CENT LOAN, THE INTEREST
AND PRINCIPAL PAYABLE COIN, TITUS
YIELDING OVER NINE PER CENT. PER ANNUM
at the present rate of premium on 3oin.
The Government requires all duties on imports to
be paid in Gold; these duties for a long time past
amounted. to over a Quarter of a Million of Dollars
daily, a sum nearly three times greater than that
required in the payment of the interest on all the
5-20's and other permanent Loans. So thatit is
hoped that the surplus Coin in the Treasury, at. no
distant day, will enable the United States to resume
specie payments upon all liabilities:
. -The Loan is called 5-20 from the fact that Bonds
may run for 50 years, yet the Government has a
fight to pay them off in Gold at par, at any time
after 5, years.
THE INTIMEST IS PAID HALF-YEARLY, viz:
on the first days of November and May.
Subscribers can have Coupen. Bonds, which are
payable to hearer, and are $5O, $lOO, $5OO, and
$1000; or Registered 'Bonds of same denomina
tions, and in addition, $5.000, lad $lO,OOO. •- For
Banking purposes and for investments of Trust.-
moniep the Registered Bonds are preferahle.
, - These 5-20's can be taxed by States; cities, teems,
m counties, and the Government. tax on them is
only one-and-a-half percent.. on the amount of in-.
come, when the income of the holder exceeds Six
Hundred dollars per annum; all-other investments
such as income from 'Mortgages, Railroad Stock
and Bonds, etc., must pay from three to five per
cent. tax on the income.
banks epd Bankers throlighout the Country will
continue to dispose of the Bonds; and nll oilers
by tip otherwise promptly attended to.
Thp inconvenience eta few days' delay in the
delivery qt Bonds is unavoidable, the demand being
so great ; kit as interest commences front the day
of snbsoription, 'no loSs is oceasiened, and every
effort is being ma3e te diminish t 7 p delay.

The Market.---
.By looking over a map the reader
will,perceive that it enjoys the beg market in the Un
ion, and has tltrect communication with
,New Yqrk
and Philadelphia twice a day, being only thirty-two
miles frOm thelatter. Producer.' this market brings
double the price that it does in locatiens distant
from the cities. In tlii,* location lt can bp put into
market. the same mqrping it is gathered, and for
what the farqter sells he gets the highest price:
whilit groceries and other articles he purchaaci he
gets at the lowest price. In the West, what he sells
brings him a pittance, but for what he buys he pays
two prices. In locating Aire the settler has many
other advantages. Ile illiwithip a few hours, by
railroad, of all the great cities of, New England and
the Middle Sthtes. Ile is near his old friends and
associationsi . ile has school for his children, di-
vine servitip, and all the advantages of civilization,
and he is nosy a larg-t: city.
The Climate is delightful; the winters being .stt
lubrious and open, whilst the summers are no warm
er thau in the North. The location is upon the
line of latitude, with northern Virginia.
Persons Wanting a change of Climate for. Health,
would be much benefitted in Vineland. The mild
ness of the elimatetiud its bracing influence, makes
it excellent for all pulmonary affections, dyspepsia or
general debility. Visitors will notice a difference in
a few days. CUM and fevers are unknown.
Conveniences at Hand.—Building material is plen
ty. Fish and oysters tire plenty and cheap.
Visitors must expect, however, to see a new plap.e.
'Why the Property has not been Settled liqiroreo
This questiou the reader naturally asks. It is 'be
cause it has been held iu large tracts by familips not
disposed to sell, and being without railroad facilities
they had few inducements. Thejlailroad has just.
been opened through the pils* this season, for
the first time.
Viiitors are shown over the land in a carriage,
free of expense, and atFnrded time and opportunity
for thorough investigation. Those who come with
a view to settle, should bring money to secure their
purchases, as locations are not held upon refusal.
The Safest thing in Hard Times, where people
have 'been thrown out of employment or. business,
and poSsess some little means or small incomes, is to
start themselves a home. Thr can buy a piece . of
land at a small price, and etwi more than wades in
improving it, and when it islione it is a certain in- .
dependence and no 1069. A few acres fruit. trees
will insure a comfortable living. The lanais put
down to hard times, and all improvements can be
made at a cheaper rate than most. any other time.
The whole tract, with six miles front on the rail
road, is being laid out with fine.and spacious" aven
ues, with ; fown in "the centre = five acre lots in the
town sell at from $l5O to$200; Iwo and a-half acre
lots, at front $BO to $l2O, and town lots 50 feet front
by 150 feet deep, at sloo—payable one-half cash
and Lae balance within a year. It is only upon
farms of twenty acres, or more, that four.. years'
time is given.
To Manufacturers, the town affords a fine opening
for the- Shoe manufacturing business, and'other ar
-tides, being near Philadelphia, and the surrounding
country has a large population, which affords a
good market.
.This settlement, in the course of several years,
will be elle of the most beautiful places in the coun
try, and most agreeable fora residence.
It is intended to make it a Vine and Fruit grow
ing .eountey, as this culture is the most profitable
and the best adapted to the market. Every advan
tage and convenience for settlers will be introduced
which will insure the prosperty of the place.- The
hard times throughout the country will-be an advan
tage to the settlement., as it compels people to resort.
to agriculture for a living.

le is certainly one of the most ezlosire fertile trade,
in an almst level prisition, and suitable condition far
pleasant farming that 1413 kiiole of /NS aide of the won
ern prairies. We found some of the olket farms appar
ently
.floVi as profitable nroductive as wins first st r a rr st
of forest fifty or a hundred years ago.
The ge4ogiat would soon discover the cause of this
continued fertility. The tybole country is a marine
deposit, and all through the soil we found evidences
of calCareous substances, pnerally in the for of
indurated calcareous marl, showing many distinct
forms of ancient shells, of the tertiary formation ;
and !iris marly substance is scattered all through :Otte
soil, in a very comminuted 'form, and in the exact
condiqon most. easily assimilated by such plasmas
the farmer desires ttt cultivate.
Marl, in all its fsrins, lists been used t 9 fertilize,
crops in England; from the time it was occupied by
the It. nuns: and in Frazyie and (4ernmay a marl
bed is counted on 4§ a valuttble bed 9,f manure, that
can be dug sop elcted untl email o/c r the field.—
How much more valuable theq'it must 14, when found
already razed through the soil, where new particles teili f
be turned up and exposed, and transformed to the owner's
use every time lie stirs the earth.
Having then satisfied our niipis of thecause, they
will not be excited with wonder at seeijig indubitable
evidence of fertility iji a soil lehich iji other situa-t
Lions, having the sauls general eharaWristics or at
least s i ppearitipes, is entirely unrenutomtive except
as its productiveness is proles?* by acqpiaifectil

Opr first visit we; t oWhen) ,
township, filoucester county, wlio purchesed spine
eight miles north of Millville, aboutthree years ago,
for the purpose pf establishing ft steam mill, to work
up the timber ipto luseber,qii send off by the new
railroad, as well as the firewood d coal, for which
he built a branch tracka mile audit half long. lie
also ftirnished sixteen miles oe the road . with ties,
and has no doubt suede the mill , profitable, though
his main object was to open a farm, having become
convinced that the sgti was valuable for cultivation.
In this he has pot beep disappointed, as some of his
crops prove. .For instance, lest year, the second
time of cropping, 304 bushelß of potatoes on one
acre, worth 60 cents a bushel in the field. This year
seven acres, without manure, produced 3,56 bushels
of oats. In one field, the first crop was potatoes,
planted among the roots, and yielded 75 bushels.—
The potatoes were dug, and wheat sdern, and yield
ed 16 bushels; and the stubble turned under and
sown to' buckwheat, Which yielded" 03i bushels;
and then thegrOgnd was SORT, to clover and timothy,
which gave as a first crop 21 tons per acre.
The fertilisers applied to these crops were first,
ashes from clearings; mom], 225 pounds of softer
phosphate of lime; third. 200 pounds Penliian gu
ano; then 50 buShels of slaked limp has been spread
•
upon the clover since it was mowed, pd. turned in
for wheat.

At Mary Barrow!s, an old style ,Teregy woman
farmer, several milps south of Mr. y'ilsen's, we were
so particularly struck with the appearance of a
field of corn, that )ltp stopped fft inapire or the hire.;

we hadn't but forty one-horse loads aUejethek, for
23 acres, and we wanted ,the most en't for the truck.
The truck c'onriiited' of beet's; Mirroti;' ca.blisge,
cucumbers, melons, &c., and a very productii'e petal'
of Lime beans, grown'for marketing.-' - So we were
satisfied that. the soil.was not infertile, even unaided
by clover, which had fed the coin because the tttruck
patch had not been in cultivation long enough to
'obliterate all signs of the-foresl.
Our next visit was to the large farm of Andrew
Sharp, five miles north of Mil Mlle, from half to a
