BURLINGTON WEEKLY



PHILADELPHIA, March l6.--Jay Cooke
reports the subscriptions to the 1880 Loan
to-day at 81, O32, 500, including $500, 900 from
New York, and $lO2, 25O from Chicago
Also q, 2lO individual subscriptions Of so
and 100 dollars.
The Secretary of the Treasury arranged
Yesterday in Washington with Jay Cooke
the most important financial measure OF
the issue of the 600 million loan. The first
issue will be Of 900 millions on the 18th day
of June next. The notes in form, denomi-
nation and interest will be in all respects
like the present issue of seven-thirties.-
They will be unlike them only in the PEI
Rod Of time fixed for their convettibtlity.
They will have 10 months longer to run
than the 1905 before they can be changed
into gold bearing 5.1Os. By very large
class of investors, this difference will be
considered to impart greater value to the
new issue. The balance Of the 600 millions
dollars will probably be q year longer in
maturing than the June issue.
This time will be definitely fixed as the
sales of the June issue approach their end.
It may be that the first three hundred mill
lions will meet the necessities Of the Gov
eminent. 1t is expected that this first is
sue will be disposed Of in about three
months. aga
8 The agency of the present seven. thirties
with all it's machinery will be employed
for the whole of the new loan.

THE Policy OF AIMING THE NEGROES.
The mor0we reflect upon the Southern
policy of putting two or three hundred
thousand negroes into the rebel armies, the
more we are convinced that 1t involves
evils and perils of great magnitude. Those
who favor IL must of course, expect by the
aid OF the negro to close up the war at
once, for they would be guilty of one OF the
greatest of all possible tabsurdities if they
supposed that they could for any length OF
time subsist their army, increased by two
or three hundred thousand men withdrawn
from the cultivation of the soil and the
raising OF cattle, sheep and hogs. They
surely know thatthey would have to strike
without delay, not even waiting for their
negro troops to be rendered effective by
drill and discipline. s
OF course these troops would make a
miserable fight, even if they should make
any at all. That they would be ten times
worse than nothing to the rebel cause, we
cannot for q moment doubt. That they
would desert by tens Of thousands Of the
irst opportunity, taking their arms with
them, is absolutely certain. Every regi-
ment Of them would require keen and con-
slant watching, and this watching would
keep large portion OF the white troops
busy all the time. Beyond all question,
colored troops would give weakpess, and
not strength, to the rebel cause. The whole
Southern people would SEQ this, with the
utmost clearness, if their dreadful calami-
ties. and their consequent desperation, did
not make them almost as blind as man
born without eyes.

NEw YoRK, March 1.-THE Heralr &
Washington special, dated 18th. Gays the
military situation tonight il understood to
be more promising than at any period du-
ring the war. n 4Ela
The Richmond papers Of to.iay are fill-
ed with doleful comments ON the condition
Of affairs, which they represent as being
desperate. Sheridan, they admit, has
played the mischief with their avenues Of
supply, and fears are expressed that he
destroy the last link between. Richmond
and anywhere else. It is believed here
that Sheridan has already passed Burke's
Station, the junction ofthe Petersburg and
Iynchburg and the Richmond and DAN
vile Roads, and gone either to Sherman
or Grant. This saves Grant the trouble OF
cutting the South Side Road and leaves to
Leo the alternative of starving or dividing
his already depleted force, and open Rich
m0nd to promenade from Grant.

AN ENaL1sH CURE FOR DRUNK ENSss
There Is famous prescription in use q
England, for the cure OF drunkenness, "
which thousands are said to have been u
sisted in recovering themselves. The Il
ceipt came into notcriety through the q
forts of John Vine Han, commander Of ~
Great Eastern steamship. He had falle.|
into such habitual drunkenness, that ~
most earnest efforts to reclaim himself
proved unavailing. At length he sousSI
the advice Of an eminent physician, w
gave him . prescription which be folloNes1
faithfully for seven months, and at the en-
Of that time, had lost all desire for liquoI
although he had been for many years =
captive by a most debasing appetite. ~
receip which he afterwards published,
by which so many other drunkards ns'
been assisted to reform, is as follows: J.
"Sulphate Of iron, Eve grains; magness
drachms; spirit Of nutmeg, one dracur
twice day." This preparation acts ~
tonic and stimulant, and 80 partially Wy
plies the place of the accustomed nqusH
and prevents that absolute physlca ~
moral prostration that follows sucS
