THE STEVENS pArTrpy

II will be rccollcctcd that the Government som,
time since Appropriated half million dollars to
wards the completion Of the Stevens Battery, which
sum not being suiicicn; for the purpose. the craf
has remained unfinished. Mr.. L. A. SrEvESs now
offers to complete this Battery, and deliver 1t ready
for service, on the following terms.
First. That she shall be iupcnctrable to the most
destructive missile irod from the most powerful
gun with its ordinary service charge now used In
our own or in any European naval service, to be
tried upon her at short range--Say two hundred and
twenty yards
.Scoad. That she shall have greater speed than
any other iron clad war steamer in the world.
Third. That she shall be more mana ageable and
more quickly turned and maneuvercd than any
other large armed sea going steamer.
Fourth. That she shall have an armament ca
pable Of throwing brradsidc at least equal to
that OF any ship now aaoat.
EUi. That she shall be delivered to the Govern
mcnt, complete aud ready for the service, Within
nine months, from the time the order is given, for
the sum of 81 800 900, but payments will be re-
quircd until she shall be ready for delivery; provi-
ded however, that the performance by me Of these
conditions is not to rest upon theoretical opinions
but if desred) shall be brought to practical tests
the test Of her sea going qualities to be voyage
to Charleston bar and back to New York harbor.
Mr.. Stevens says that if these conditions are
rul6lled, the ship will be the most powerful war
steamer in the world, aud will cost far less than
the best English or French vessels now anoat. II
she proves failure the whole loss will fall upon
him-not upon the Govornnent.

A Proclamation Respecting soldiers
Absent without Leave.

EXECUTIVE N ASstoS, March 10. 1868.
In pursuance of the Goth section of an act otCon-
gress entitled An act for enrolling aud calling out
the National forces approved on the 81 OF March
1859, |, ARRAHAN LINCOLN, President and Com

spectivc regiments.

without punishment, exceptthe forfeiture ofpdy and
allowances during their absence and all who do
not return within the time above specified, shall

provides.
Itd cicrcos. Evil disposed and dsloyal persons
ct sundry places have enticed aud procured sol
diers To desert and absent themselves from their
regiments, thereby weakening the strength ot the
army and proouging the war, and giving aid and
comfort to the enemy, and cruelty exposing the gal
liant and faithful soldiers remaining iu the ranks to
increased hardships and dangers, do, therefore,
call upon all patriotic and faithful citizens to op-
pose and resist the aforementioned dangerous aud
reasonable crimes and aid in restoring to their reg
imens all soldiers absent without leave, aud to as
sst in the execution of the act of Congress for en-
rolling and calling out the national forces. and for
other purposes and to assist the proper authorities
in the prosecution and punishment of the Offenders
against said act, and in suppressing the nsurrcc-
ton and rebellion.
In testimony whereof have hereunto set my
hand. Done at the city of Washington, this 10th
day,of March, A. d. lSi2,and of the Independence of

and renovated The medicines have threefold
action They purge, purify, ana strengthen, at
the same time. Hence their astounding cures of
Indigestion General Debility, hilious Complaints,
and Intermittent Fever, In fact there seems to be
no kind of ailmcnt to which they are not adapted.
