THE FALL OF PETERSBURG AND
RICHMOND.

RICHMOND.
Yesterday morning the intelligence fash
ed over the telegraph wires that the gallant
army nuder the chivalrous GRAST had COM
PEELED the rebels to evAeuaio Petersburgh
This news caused great rejoicing among our
loyal people, ln the midst of which another
dispatch announced that Richmond the
Gibraltar of the traitors and their capitol,
had been taken. Upon its reception, the
bells on the City Hall, engine houses and
workshops rang forth merry peal cannon
was nredi frs-crackerS exploded, and from
many public aud private houses the glori-
GUS emblem of our nationality, the star
spangled banner, was thrown proudly to the
breeze. 4 band Of music paraded our
Streets sdiscoursing spirit-stlrnng, patriotic
airs. Mayor Maris issued proclamation,
rrqussting our citizens to close their places
OF business, AID unite in the grand jubilee
in honor OF the great and glorious triumph
In accordance with this recommendation,
most OF our stores aud workshops were
closed, and our streets were illled with jubi.
liant, loyal citizens.
Our people rejoice, because this great
victory crushes out the last vestige Of hope
OF the rebels, and destroys that vile crater
Of treason aud dungeon Of cruelty, where
thousands Of our brave men, who have fallen
into the hands of the enemy by the fortunes
OF war. have been made to suffer untold hor.
rors. They rejoice because il is the bright
harbinger Of peace, aud with it reunited
country. Soon we may anticipate that the
fratricidal strife which has ragged in our
land for four years will cease, that the enc
mica Of our free republican institutions
will be destroyed, and our Republic resume
its march to prosperity and greatness.
In the evening large meeting of the
loyal citizens was held at the City Hall, at
which Mayor MRris presided. A choir
sang several appropriate airs, prayer was
offered by the Rt Rev. Bishop Lee, and
other e4ercisss 10 keeping with the event
took place.
As we go to press, large procession is
passing through the streets of our city com.
posed Of soldiers, the iremen with their ap-
paratus gaily decorated with Gags and flow
ers, the Fenian Brotherhood, number Of
civic Societies. the City Council, ana our
citiEeus generally. Along the route many
houses were brilliantly illuminated A
grand display Of fireworks took place.

larly determined aud persistent OIL the
Second Corps's 'front.' were resisted and
repulsed with heavy losses leaving with
the Sixth Corps over 400 prisoners, and
with ths Second Corps two battle'aSgs
and over 800 prisoners.
The troops Of tho Sixth Corps, ropor-
ted by MaJor.Gen. Wright AZ engaged in
these operations were Getty's Division,

Wheston's Division.
OF the Second Corps, Major General

The result Of the day was the thorough

Of his strongly intrenched picket-line
under the artillery FIRE Of his main works,
and the capture Of ten batte-hags aud
about 2 so prisoners--a result on which
the Major-General commanding heartily
coDgratulates the Army.
Two lessons eau be learned from these
operations: One, that no fortified line,
however strong, will protect an army
from an intrepid and audacious enemy.
unless vigilantly guarded; the other, that
no disaster or misfortune is irreparable,
where energy aud bravery are displayed
In the determination to recover what is

these lessons will not be lost on this Army.
In conclusion, the Major General com.

thanks. GEo. g. MEADE.

success Of tho 7-8o loan.

Our readers will notice that subscrip-
tons to the popular 7.S0 Loan arc still
continued in the most liberal manner.--
To the Old World the success of these
Peoples Loans is one of the wonders of
Republic. The Government does not
seek to borrow in foreign markets; II Of.
fers no premiums 10 bankers, but appeals
directly to the people, and with what sue.
cess is sufficiently shown by the fact that
during torty-fhree days they subscribed
and paid the cash down for one hundred
and stzty-one million dollars Of the T.30
Loan. There can be no stronger syi.
dence Of public confidence In Goyern.
ment securities While nearly all other
stocks have gone down from twenty to
fifty, and even a greater per cent. within
a lew weeks, all forms Of q. s. bonds and
stocks have remained firm except the
slight fluctuations that are incident to all
rapid changes in the money market
Our readers will remember that the sub.
scribers to the 7-30 Loan receive semi.
annual interest at the rate Of seven and
three.teuths per cent per annum in cur.
rency, and at the end of three years from
June 18th, 1855, they will bave the option
OF receiving payment in full, or convert
Ing their notes into a $50 six psr cent
gold interest bond. The late great de.
cline iu the premium on gold makes tbese
notes more desirable than ever "a an in
vestment, and it should not be forgotten
that their exemption from state or mupi.
cipal taxation adds largely 10 their value.
There is no interruption in the receipt Of
subscriptions or the delivery of the notes,
all banks, bankers, and others acting as
Loan Agents, will pay subscribers the
interest in advance from the dsy of sub-
scription until June 10Th.
