CHANGE OF TERMS We hat, hoped to
continue the FARMER at the old price, put
paper, ink and other material have more
than doubled in price, and at least hun
dred per cent has been added to the cost of
living, therefore we find it impossible to con-
tinue at our old terms without greater loss
than we are able to stand. From and after
the first ofJuly the FARMER will be two dol
lars in advance, or two dollars and fifty cents
if not paid within the year. Those who
have paid in advance, or who may pay be-
fore the first of July will get the paper for
such time as they have paid at the old
terms, but after the expiration of the time
for which they have paid they will be charg-
ed two dollars. All new subscribers must
pay in advance
Nearly all the papers in the State have
advanced their terms. So soon as we can
afford to do so we will return to the old
terms.

To All Whom it May Concern.

By information, this day received from the
\. A. Provost Marshal General Of Pennsylva-
MIA, il has been ascertained that a large num-
Der of Soldiers are credited to the 18th Mill

reply was bitter and indignsnt denial.
There is little doubt that tie reason why

because OF its shameful mutllat!on and

farmer prosecuted his mother, ninety one
years old, for the cost of her board with

Over Eight Per Cent. Interest

in currency, and are of equal convenience as
a permanent or temporary investment.
It is believed that ne securities offer so
great inducements to lenders as the various
descriptions of Q s. Bonds In all other forms
of Indebtedness, the faith or ability of private
parties or stock companies or separate cem-
munities only is pledged for payment, while
for the debts of the United States the who'll
property of the country is holden to secure
the payment of both principal and interest in
coin
These Bonds may be subscribed for in SUMS
from $50 up to any magnitude, on the same
terms, and are thus made equally available to
the smallest lender and the largest capitalist.
They can be converted into money at any mo-
ment, and the holder will have the benefit of
the interest.
1t may be usefnl to state in this connection
that the total Funded Debt of the United
States on which interest is payable IN gold,
on the Sd day of March, 1864, was S768, $780,
600. The interest on this debt for the COM
ing fiscal year will be S45,937 7.126 while the
customs revenue in gold for the current fiscal
wear, ending June 3Oth, 1864, has been so far
at The rate of over Sl0O, 900, 600 per annum.
1t will be seen that even the present gold
revenues of the Government are largely in ex-
cess of the wants of the Treasury for the pay
ment of gold interest, while the recent in
crease of the tariff will doubtless raise the an
nual receipts from customs on the same
amount of impsrtations, to $780, 100000 per
annum.
