SATURDAY, JULY 2,1864.
.ra• In consequence of a difference of
opinion between the President and Sec
retary of the Treasury Chase, as to the
appointment of a sub-treasurer in New
York in place of Mr. Cisco, resigned;
Mr. Sectetary Chase resigned his place
in Mr. Lincoln's Cabinet, and the Presi
dent immediately sent to the Senate for
confirmation the name of Ex-Governor
Tod, of Ohio, as his successor. After a
lengthy and heated debate in the Sen
ate, a despatch was received from Gov.
Tod declining the position. Thus things
stand as we go to press. We under
stand, however, that there has existed
quite a feud in the Cabinet for some
time past, between Post Master General
Blair and Judge Chase, so much so, in
deed, as to cause Mr. Chase to refuse to
inset the Cabinet—with Blair—in con
sultation. This is certainly most unfor
tunate. 'We could have spared any
other member of the cabinet better than
Mr. Chase. We hope, however, to hear
better news by this time to-morrow.
eir The great fact should be sounded
throughout the land in thunder tones,
that the State of Maryland has by her
own deliberate act, declared that Hu
man Slavery no longer exists within her
boundaries. This touching Christian
measure occurred in the Constitutional
Convention of Maryland, now in session
at Annapolis, on Friday, June 24th, and
is contained in the following new Arti
cle engrafted upon the Constitution of
the State, to wit " Hereafter in this
State there shall be neither Slavery nor
Involuntary Servitude, except in punish.
meat of crime, whereof the party shall
have been duly convicted, and all per
sons held to service or labor as slaves
are hereby declared free."

fir During the night session a few
evenings since, Hon. Thaddeus Stevens,
M. C. from this district offered a substi
tute to the Enrollment Bill, authorizing
the President to call into the military
service not exceeding 500.000 men in ad
dition to those already called for, to
serve for two years unless sooner dis
charged, and if not otherwise obtained
a draft may be ordered to take place
within forty days, or at such time there
after as the President may direct. Any
person who is liable to draft and has
been regularly enrolled may purchase
exemption from the draft for two years
by paying $3OO. Any drafted person
may purchase the like exemption by
paying $5OO. The commutation money
thus paid shall go into the treasury for
the purpose of paying the bounties here
in provided. Every Soldier voluntarily
and regularly enlisting is to receive a
bounty of $5OO. If he shall be killed
-or die in the service before the expira
tion of his term of enlistment it shall go
to his heirs.
His bill also proposed to accept of
50,000 volunteers for the term of two
years, to be composed of men between
forty-five and fifty-five years of age, for
post and garrison duty,ete, to be called
the Old Guard.
Mr. Stevens said the time had not
come to sweep our entire population by
a draft into the army, hence he was op
posed to the repeal of the commutation
clause, and had endeavored to frame a
bill which would be more effectual and
less objectionable. He said there are
throe millions of men on the rolls, and if
one-half of them pay $3OO each there
will be found $450, 000,000 to be expen
ded for bounties. Ile thought an army
of half a million could be made up ac
cording to his plan in forty days.
ear War, with all its sad and earnest
realities, develops so m e of the finest traits
of our humanity. War itself establishes
a grand brotherhood. Thitfilial feeling
is everywhere evident, although failing
an organized expression. I am led to
these observations from the recent or
ganization in the sth Corps of a society
called the "Ben Sellars." The deriva
tion of the name I am unable to give.
The object of the organization, as ex
plained to me, is to look out for one a
nother's interest in the march, in the bi
vouac, and in battle. There are mani
fold ways of doing this, as, for instance,
if one is sick, to see that he lacks no
want of attention ; if one wants money,
to see that he has it; if one is wounded,
to look to his immediate care; and, if
one is killed in battle, to see, if it is im
possible to forward the body home, that
he is buried as becomes a soldier, to
have a record made of his burial place,
and his effects preserved and transmitted
to his friends, The benefits arising
from such an association are not tempo
rary. When this war is over, through
its agency friends and widows and or
phaned children can possess themselves
of the remains of loved ones buried on
these far-away battle-fields, and give
them a final resting place in the old
church-yard and family burial places at
home, to whose weeping willows and
wild flowers and waving cypresses their
dying thoughts perhaps reverted amidst
the crash and carnage of battle, with a
longing hope to be buried there at last.
Scores are joining the association every
day. Captain George 11. Weir is the
president of the association.—.N. Y.

air Last Sunday afternoon a wife,
Catharine Osborne, was murdered by
her husband while in the act of the most
criminal infidelity with a paramour, na
med Peter Sherdon. The murderer,
John Osborne, when he came to his home
Fremont and Sarah streets, discovered
the criminals, but without apprising
them of his presence, silently and speed
ily went into the yard, seized an axe,
stole in upon them, and struck the two
several violent blows. Sherdon escaped
with a few cuts, but the first blow the
wife received horribly crushed her left
jaw, and the other the left side of her
head, killing her instantly. Osborne
was arrested.

SAD FULFILMENT OF A JEST.-A very
singnlaroccurrence was noted in the 1 Oth
Massachusetts. A sergeant had been
engaged in the 2d division hospital the
day previous in placing upon a number
of headboards the names of members of
his regiment who had been killed in the
late fight or had died in battle, which
was to mark their last resting place.
There was one board in excess, and, in
a sportive vein, he placed with a lead
pencil his own name upon it, and the
date of his demise, 20th of June, as his
term of service had then expired and he
was about to leave for home. Yester
day morning, while near the front bid
ding his companions in other regiments
a farewell, he was struck in the breast
by a twenty-pounder Parrot and instant
ly killed. his remains were interred
to-day, and the very headboard he had
unthinkingly inscribed with his own
name was placed over his grave, and,
with date, correctly marks for the time
his last resting place.

Coughs and Colds affecting Troops
Will be speedily relieved and effectually
cured by using these admirable medicines, and
by paying proper attention to the Directions
which are attached to each Pot or Box.
Sick Headache and want of Appetite Incident
to Soldiers !
Those feelings which so sadden us, usually
arise from trouble or annoyances, obstructed
prespiration, or eating and drinking whatever
is unwholesome, thus disturbing the healthful
action of the liver and stomach. These organs
must be relieved, if you desire to do well.—
The Pills, taking according to the printed
instructions, will quickly produce a healthy ac
tion in both liver and stomach, and as a natu
ral consequence a clear head and good appeiite.
Weakness and Debility induced by
OVER. FATIGUE.
Will soon disappear by the use of these in.
valuable Pills, and the Soldier will quickly
acquire additional strength. Never let the
bowels be either confined or unduly acted
upon. It may seem strange that Holloway's
Pills should be recommended for Dysentery
and Flux, many persons supposing that they
would' increase the relaxation. This is a
great mistake, for these Pills will correct the
liver and stomach and thus remove all the
acrid humours from the system. This medi
cine will give tone and vigor to the whole
organic system however deranged, while
health and strength follow as a matter of
course. Nothing will stop the relaxation of
the Bowels so sure as this famous medicine.
VOLUNTEERS ATTENTOIN!
Sores and Ulcers, Blotches and Swellings
can with certainty be radically cured if the
Pills are taken night and morning, and the
Ointment be freely used as stated in the printed
nstructions. If treated in any other manner
they dry up in one part to break out in another.
Whereas this Ui it t m en t will remove the
humors from the system and leave the patient
a vigorous and healthy man. It will require
a little perseverance in bad cases to insure a
LASTING CURE.
For Wounds Miler occasioned by the Bayonet
Sabre or the Bullet, Sores or Bruises,
To which every Soldier and Sailor are liable
there are no medicines so safe, sure and con
venient as Holloway's Pills and Ointment.—
The pour wounded and almost dying sufferer
might have his wounds dressed immediately,
if he would only provide himself with this
matchless Ointment, which should be thrust
into the wound and smeared all around it, then

that the total Funded Debt of the United
