eigners are periodically coming from abroad to
tender their services 10 our country to aid In sup
pressing the conspiracy TO destroy the best and
freest Government on the face Of the earth; and
while the Administration with commendable
wisdom accepts the profered aid, and our people
applaud the disinterested patriotism Of the noble
men who are thus coming TO our shores to fight
for our glorious Union. we should not forget "to
award the need Of praise" 10 the patriotic women
OF America, native as well az forei2n-born, who
are doing 20 much to aid and comfort the gallant
OrtceS and soldiers who are engaged In fighting
the battles Of the Union.
Among tie noble women who are thus display
Ing Ing 50 much generosity to our brave soldiers,
the Countess Pourtas, Of this city. lady Of high
character, intelligence, and eminent liberality,
only visited and comforted many Of the wounded
and sick soldiers who came to defend our Capital,
but also had many Of them conveyed to her resi-
dsHes and rendered and cared for them, giving
them all the comforts of home. She has also
given levees and concerts to gallant officers to
aid In removing the dull monotonY Of camp life.
am sure the officers and soldiers who have been
the recipients Of the munifcent bounty of this
amiable lady will unite with me in rendering her
our heartfelt thanks for her noble generosity.
