WATERPROOF
LEA THEIR SERVER.
This Compound discovered by Prof Denison
Olmsted, of Yale College. is the best preparation
now known for making leather in every form and
quality
lmpervious to Water.
1t is one of the most useful of the many appli-
cations OF science to the useful arts. with which
the name of Prof Olmsted is identified.
1t perfectly penetrates the leather, and renders
even old and hard leather almost as soft as buck
skin. and is perfectly neat that it will not soil
the fingers, or the carpet, even when applied to
the soles of boots. Indeed, to prerent cracking
az leather to restore its natural color, to add to
its durability, and to make it equal to India rub
Der in turning water, without any of the disagree
able qualities of rubber, this Chemical Compound
is unequalled, SO much SO. that its use must be-
come universal; like the little sulphur match, no
one can dispense with it. while it is constant
witness to the advanced arts. and an addition
to the means, comfort health and progress of
mankind.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 9,

The President has signed the s25,O0O,-
900 loan bill which passed both houses as
originally reported, with amendments pro-
viding that the revenue from the loan au
thorized by the act of June, 1860, or so
much as shall be deemed necessary, shall
be applied to the redemption of treasury
notes issued under the act of last Dec, and
and for no other purpose. The Secretary
of Treasury is authorized to exchange at
par the bonds of the U. S. for said treasu-
ry notes at legal interest, and shall not be
obliged to accept the most favorable bids
as provided for, unless he shall consider
them advantageous TO the q. S. and any
portion of said loan not taken under the
first advertisement he may again advertise
according to his discretion.
Certain distinguished Virginians have
telegraphed to Gov. Pickens, requesting
him still to forbear assaulting Fort Sumter
The Governor replies that he would take
into respectful consideration any sugges-
tions from them, but he could not give a
defiiiite answer until he shall receive the
Presidents communication, and ascertain
the grounds of the latter's refusal to sur
render Fort Sumter.

The Pence Congress.

A great variety of opinions appear TO exist
about the probable result of the deliberations of
the Peace Congress, now in session at Washing
ton. Some deny that there is any hope of good
results from its deliberations. But, on the 9TH
hand, more sanguine minds anticipate that at
least two-thirds of its members from both sec
tions will decide upon recommending plan OF
adjustment which will be gladly accepted by
the masses of the people in the Border Slave
and in a majority of the Free States, and which
will be SO enthusiastically and energetically sup.
ported that ultra politicians i'll be utterly un-
able TO successfully resist it. They argue. too
that if the Border Slave States are thus satisfied
a vigorous minority will at once commence &
Union agitation in the States which have al.
ready seeded, and before many months have
elapsed that, like Prodigal Sons, they will grow
weary of feeding upon the husks OF heavy tax.

Secession furnishes them, and come back re-

the Union for readmission into its hospitable
