MARIETTA. PA :
SATURDAY, JUNE 11, 1864.
RET66.I. OF, TUE $3OO CLAUBE.-A re
port was laid before Congress on Wed
nesday last, by. the President, from Pro
vost Marshal General Fry, with a re
commendation, approving of the sug
gestions, by Mr. Stanton. Mr. Stanton
says : "The recent successes that have
attended our arms lead to the hope that
by maintaining our military strength,
and giving it such increase as the ex
tended field of operations may require,
an earlytermination of the war may be
attained, but to accomplish this it is
absolutely necessary that efficient means
be taken with vigor and promptness to
keep the army up in its strength, and
supply the 'deficiencieS occasioned by
the losses sustained in the field. To
that end resort most be made to a draft
—but ample experience has now shown
that the peculiar exemption from ser
vice frustrates the object of sthe. Enrol
ment Law, by furnishing money instead
of men.
"An additional reason for repealing
the three hundred : dollar clause is, that
it is contemplated to make the draft for
a comparatively short time. The bur
den of military service will, therefore,
be lightened, but its certainty , of furnisho
iiirktroops is an absolute , essential to
success."
Gen. Fry, after going into detail as
to how many commute and few go,
says : "I invite your attention to the
small proportion of solillers being ob
tained under the existing law.' I see
no reason to believe that the army can
be materially strengthened by draft so
long as the three hundred dollar clause
is in force; nor do I thin,k it safe to BB
FUMO that the commutation paid by
drafted men will enable the Government
to procure
.a
,volunteer or substitute in
his place. I do not think that large
bounties by the United States should
bo again resorted to, for raising troops.
1 recommend that the three hundred
dollar Clause, aiit is linowo,be rePealed."

Ifir The Richmond Enquirer gives a
list of 11,130 rebel wounded who have
been sent to hospitals from Lee's army,
and 3,030 from Beauregard's command.
This, probably covers about half the to
tal losses. Add then 11,000 taken pris
oners by Grant and Butler, and 4000 or
5000 killed outright, and we can approx
imate to the rebel losses thus far during
this memorable campaign.

ITALIANS THROWING DOWN THEIR ARMS.
—Richmond papers of a late date con
tain the following :
• A number • of citizens of foreign birth,
enrored tulle 19th Virginia batallion,
by order of the governor of the com
monwealth, for the defence of Richmond,
threw down their arms on yesterday
morning, in the presence of the enemy,
at the fight on the Brooke turnpike, and
refused to fight in the cause of liberty
and the southern confederacy. They
were placed under arrest and sent into
the city, guarded by a detachment of
the. President's Maryland Guard, and
committed to Castle Thunder by order
of Governor Smith, until such time as
the grave charges against them can be
investigated:` The recreants, twenty
five-in number are all Italians but two,
and made fortunes out of the war and
the sale of peanuts and confectionary at
their stands on Main street. When
brought to the Castle they were search :
ed, and large quantities of gold, coin,
greenbacks, jewelry and gold watches
were found safely stowed away iu belts
around their persons, showing conclu
sively that there existed among them a
secret understanding to desert to the
enemy upon the first opportunity, car
rying their worldly effects with them,
and leaving their families here, some of
them to become a burden to the Young
Men's Christian Association, and other
charity-disp . ensing societies.
THE PRICE OF PRINTING - PAPER.—The
high price of printing paper still con
tinues, with the prospect of a still far
ther advance. So severely does this
expense of printing newspapers press
upon publishers, that, in the city of New
York they have combined to import
their paper from Europe, which, it
is stated, can be done at a saving of
from two to four cents per pound—a
saving of the very highest consequence
to publishers. This may possibly affect
prices here slightly, but scarcely to a
degree worthy of consideration. One
thing, however, is clear, that, unless
there is a reduction in the price of paper
and printing materials generally, no
publisher whose circulation is in any
way extensive, can continue to issue
his journal at present prices.. At the
very lowest estimate, au advance in the
price of subscription ought to be fifty
per cont.; and the delay in making it
must sensibly cripple many establish
ments. When it is considered that pub
lishers suffer - more than any class of
business people, in the general advance
in price of everything . except news.pa.
pars, the policy of adhering to old prices
is as absurd es it is suicidal.--liar. Tel.
ar The If attapony river, in Virginia,
watering the present battle fields, gets
its name, oddly, • from four seperate
branches running south-easterly. The
southernmost branch is called Mat, the
next one Ta, the next Po, and the last
Ny. In the forks of these syllabic
streams the armies are enacting the
bloodiest drama of the war. Spottsyl
vania is situated upon the. Po, a stream
which is only a few inches deep, end
half, a dozen yards wide.. The North.
Anna river is about the size of the Bull
Bun, and when swollen . by rains is not
fordable.
or Several days since Major General
Fremont sent his resignation to the
President, wthett'has been accepted, and
General Fremont has ceased to be an
officer of die United States army. His
name stood second on the list of major
generals.of the regular army, General
McClellan standing first. General Grant,
as Lieutenant' General, is General-in-
Chief. General Fremont is now free
and before the country as a candidate
for the Presidency. It is understood
that several members of his staff have
also resigned.

been arrested while driving a wagon in
which were two coffins, supposed to
contain the remains of dead Federal
soldiers, but found upon examination to
be occupied' by two live Jews, who,. it
is believed, paid high fares for their con

DEATH OF GEN.STUART.-A long obitu
ary of Gen. J. E. B. Stuart, in the
Richmond Examiner, gives an interest
ing account of the dying hours of one
whom the rebeli - call "the flower of cav
aliers." On the night of the 19th ultimo
Stuart breathed his last. During his
dying moments he "reviewed in broken
sentences all his glorious campaigns
around McClellan's rear on the Penin
sula, beyond the Potomac, and upon the
Rapidan, quoting from his orders, and
issuing new owes to his couriers, with a
last injunction to "make haste." About
noon 'Thursday President Davis visited
his' bedside, and spent some fifteen min
utes in the dying chamber of his favorite
chieftain. The President, taking his
hand, said: 'General; how do you feel?'
'Easy, but willing to' die if God and my
country think I have fulfilled my destiny
and done my duty,' To the doctor, who
sat holding his wrist and counting the
fleeting, weakening pulse, he remarked,
'Doctor, I suppose I am going fast now.
It will soon be over; but God's will be
done, I hope I have fulfilled my duty
to my country. and my duty to my God.'
To Airs. Gen. R. E. Lee he directed
that the golden spurs be given as a
dying memento of his love and esteem
to her husband. Tu his staff officers he
gave his horses. So particular was he
in small things, even in the dying hour,
that. he emphatically exhibited and illus
trated the ruling passion strong in death.
To one of his staff, who was a heavy
built man, he said ; 'You bad better
take the larger horse ; he will carry you
better.' Other mementoes be disposed
of in a similar manner. l'o his young
son, be left his glorious sword. Gen.

BEWARE OF PRODLERS.— A spectacle
peddler one day this week called upon
an old gentleman of this city, to sell a
pair of spectacles. Ile presented a pair
fitted to the eyes ; and to show the su
periority over those he had been using,
asked him to look first through the new
and then through the old ones, giving
the latter a rub with a piece of wash
leather. The difference was very strik
ing;And the old gentleman was delight
ed., After 'the wandering trader was
gone, the Opectacle wearer picked up
his old glasses, which he regarded as
worthless, and after wiping them, would
take a farewell look through the "eyes"
that - had served him so well for years,
when he found 'he could see through
them as well as through the new ones.
It was all explained'in this way the
peddler,. instead of cleaning • the old
glasses with his wash leather, had ac
tually pct something on them to obstruct
the sight. His spectacles; for which he
asked a double price, were not worth a
cent more than the old pair.
So come out nine persons out of ten
who trade with peddlers, or go abroad
to purchase of those whom we do not
know, instead of relying upon our own
merchants, whose honesty is unques
'tinned, and who have bad experience in
'their business.--Newbkrypert Herald.
