pts of the committee have sadly diminished. Is this the result of indifference, or is it simply inadvertence? We would fain believe the latter. Has the self-sacrificing soldier, separated from his wife and children, fighting our battles, for our rights, in the field, lost the affection of the benevolent and the affluent at home? Care we not that these widowed wives and orphaned children die of cold and starvation? Are their husbands and fathers engaged in some wild and reckless crusade, or are they giving their health, their blood, their limbs, and their lives, for one of the noblest causes upon which the sun of Heaven ever shone? Gained, we are a great people; lost, we are ruined. Let us, then, in this city, and all over the country, who cannot go to the field, and whose pockets are plethoric with Confederate notes, give or send liberal sums to Wm. P. Munford, Esq., Chairman, that the wives and children of our matchless defenders may have food, fuel, and clothing. Humanity.

A contemporary justly observes: "The name of Mr. Munford is a sufficient guarantee that the purposes of the Association will be faithfully carried out," and touchingly and truly adds: "The mothers, wives, sisters, and the little children of our gallant soldiers in the field, stretch forth their hand
