MONTPELIER. FEB. "a. 1865.

Messrs. FISK g. HATCH, the well-known
Bankers and Government Loan Agents, at 3s
Wall Street, New York, advertise to receive
orders for the popular 7-3O Loan. This is
emphaticslly the Peoples Loan, and should
attract the attention Of Banks, Bankers and
Capitalists, and Of every man or woman who
has Fifty Dollars or more to invest, through
out the country. The convenient form in
which these notes are issued the ease with
which the interest may be cslculated-being
one cent day on each $50 the facility with
which It may be collected-the notes having
semi-annual coupons attached, which may be
cut off when due and sold at little or no die
count to any bank or banker; the oonverti-
bility Of the notes, at the option Of the hold
er, after August l5th, 1867, into Gold-bea'-
ing Five T'wenty Bonds, all combine to render
the 1880 Notes most desirable investment
If investors are in doubt as to what form
of investment will ultimately bring the lsrg-
est return, sufficient reason for taking the
80 Notes will be found in the fact that
Messrs. FISK 81 HATCH, and the other Agents
Of the Government, as we'll az the various
Banks and Bankers throughout the country,
are selling these notes for the Government,
and that the money so invested is not only
securely and proftab'y invested, but goes i'm
mediately into the National Treasury, to as
sist the Government in promptly paying our
brave boys in the field aud putting the fn-
ishing blows into the hateful rebellion.
All patriotic Banks and Bankers in this
vicinity have the notes on hand for sale, or
will order them from Messrs. FISK & HATCH,
for suca Of our readers as may desire to
avoid the trouble Of direct correspondence.

The copperhead papers have set up the hue
and cry that President Lincoln closed the
door to peace by insisting that what action
had been taken with regard to slavery should
not be disturbed. Unfortunately for the the
ory that this was all that stood in the way Of
negotiation, Judah +. Benjamin, the rebel
Secretary of state, declared in his speech at
Richmond that " our commissioners sent to
confer with the enemy went with piece Of
blank paper filed NTH one word iOritten By our
President, 'IEDEPRNDENCK.' Tha settles
the question of the terms on which the rebel
leaders would have concluded peace; and un-
less the coppsrheads are prepared to concede
the independence of ths rebels, they are she'd

A correspondent of the Raleigh IN. G
Standard, who has been over the route of
Gen. sherman's march through Georgia, is
surprised to find that that officer dealt so le-
niently with that state, and consoles himself
with anticipations of the same gentle treat
ment for South Carolina. The writer says
that the destruction of property by fire dur
ing Gen. SheImsn's famous march was caused
entirely by outsiders, and was never done
under the inspection of any officer. The
provisions on the route we've not, he says,
destroyed, and no compulsion was used to
make the negroes follow the army. Couse-
quently the Is 900 oolored men who came
into Savannah did so by their own will.
An Englishmsu had heard of the Yankees

uses the following language in regard to
the latest fashions in hair:
Thinking of the great and blessed
work done during these last four years
by women in the Sanitary Commission,
the hospitals, and the school houses for
the emancipated, l seemed to see a
bright light dawning ON our future ca
reef But the vision receded in the dis
tai &c when looked from my window and
saw bevy of damsels sailing by with
hencopps in their skirts, and upon their
heads rimless pan of straw with a
feather in it--utterly useless for defense
AGAINST wind or rain. E
To make this unbecoming head-gear
stlfl more ungraceful there descends
from h something called by the flowing

more like q cabbage in net, tricked
