SEWING sOuIETINs.

II gives us pleasure TO be able to state that the
sewing circles proposed TO be organised in the
several churches, for the purpose Of cooperating
with the National Sanatory Committee at Wash
neton, for the relief Of our sick and wounded
soldiers, are being rapidly formed. We under-
stand that the ladies connected with Bishop
LENS church went TO work yesterday and the
ladies' of other congregations will begin in day
or two. We may therefore soon expect to hear
good report from the wives mothers, sisters
aud daughters of loyal little Delaware, in behalf
of the suffering men who are in camps and hos
pitfalls, sick and wounded in their country's
service
But whatever the ladies may now do, it will
not be anything like what they CAN and WILL d.,
II more ample pecuniary resources were placed
at their command. Much of their time-which
they would otherwise willingly devote to the
need'e-is now necessarily spent in obtaining,
by personal solicitation, the means whereby to
keep their busy fingers going. This should not
be so. They should not be required to occupy
those hours of toll in begging they should al
any time be excused from such an unpleasant
task, but more especially in this case, when they
are so willing to give their time and labor il
furtheranec of the object in view.
To avoid all His, then, we suggest that Tho
men should take some active part in raising tht
means and putting the financial part of the ma
chinery in motion. Let them not wait to h,
asked, but like patriots and men Of benevolenc,
and feeling come forward with their coniribu
tons. No matter how small the sum, it will be
acceptable and useful, aud Will tell to the com
fort and relief Of the suffering soldiers who are
now PROSTATE in agony and pain away from,
friends and the soothing influences of home--
And to facilitate this work and save as much
time as possible to persons who have busiuess
matters to attend to, we here propose to receive
and hand over to the ladies', any contribution,
that may be forwarded to us for that purpose
making in all cases public announcement il
the Journal, Of all such donations, and the chan
nels into which they have been sent We hope
therefore, to hear from the liberal, the patriotic
and those who have hearts which can sympathis

promptly minister to the relief Of their suffering

FnEmoNr AND his comMANp,

The reports of dissatisfaction and mutiny
which came to US from the West, upon the reno
val of Gen. Fremont, turn out to be great ex-
aggeralions. The men in Gen. Fremont's army
naturally enough felt great conf lence and
interest in the Pathfinder Of the West, and
hence received the news of his removal with
evident marks of regret but to suppose that
their feelings could run so high as to lead to in.
subordination and mutiny, is simply to impugu
their patriotism and suspect their loyalty. They
may love their leader much, but they love theil
country more and though they would perhaps,
have fought with greater desperation under Ere.
mont bad he remained with them, they will
doubtless abate not little of their courage when
il shall be necessary for them to bring it iuto ex.
ercise under their new commander, Gen. Hunter.
As Americans, fighting for a great principle, they
will iorego all individual and personal prefer.
ences, aud make many sacrifices to secure their
ilrst, grand, paramount object, the re establish
ment of the Union, and the perpemity Of
constitutional liberty.
Let politicians, therefore, croak as they may
the war must and will go on, no matter who
commands and everything which stands in the
way of victory, whether it shall be a favorite
"General of abolition proclivities'' or the foul
Institution of slavery, it must, if the former, be
removed, and if the latter, be utterly and
reyocaby destroyed. The Union must be
preserved" and if in its preservation it shall
become necessary to crush out slavery, let the ac-
cursed thing be at once bloited from the re ,ord
Of the nineteenth century, to raise its tyrannous
and barbarous head no more forever iu free
America.
