SOLDIERS RELIEF.

SOLDIERS RELIEF.
Mr.. BLAIR, from the Committee for the Re
liefsof the Families of Volunteers, submitted
report, in which the Committee say: u g...
They have found that In most of the cases
% where volunteers have left families, they are
an very destitute circumstances, and in many
without any visible means OF support. AGED
mothers, wives and children are in nu
merous instances calling for relief. Your
committee have been careful not tc
encourage extravagant expectations, and have
in all cases exhorted the beneiciaries to
industry aud prudence in their expenditures
The highest amount allowed TO any family az
yet is eight dollars per month, many not over
four or five, to be in cash, with the full under
standing that they are not to receive any more
until another month The amount already ex :
pended appears in the report of the City Treas
urer, and need not be reported here. The amount
per month may, aud probably will be, somewhat
j. increased hereafter. As the hot weather will
induce more or less sickness among the poor
and badly housed, among whom most OF these
families may be classed your Committee would
close their report by Offering the followingre
solution: - ~

The Bible tells as there wac once war
IA rebellion 10 heaven. Ambition then
aspired to dethrone the Almighty Ambi-
tion is now striving to subyert our gov
ernment-the best government on earth.
Then it became necessary for the holy,
peace loving inhabitants of heaven to fight
To put down that rebellion. They put it
down; they crushed it out. "Michael and
his angels fought against the dragon; and
the dragon fought and his angels, and pre-
vailed not, neither was their place found
any more in heaven. And the great drag
on was cast out, that old serpent, called
the devil and Satan, which deceiyeth the
whole world, he was cast out, into the
earth, and his angels were cast out with
him. 20 =

fight to put down rebellion there, should

The poet has said, "a rose by any other
name, would smell as SWEET but then it has
been distinguished so long by that name
the name has become SO suggestive of
beauty and fragrance, aud the aG1Is and
thing have become so blinded in our con-
ceptions of the beautiful, that few persons
would consent to call it by can other
name" iii
For this reason we are opposed to West
ern Virginia (if the State is diyided) be-
ing called Kanawha. Il is hard jaw
breaking word of harsh sound and hard to
spell. Only the other day one of the Off
Gals of the present Government, having
occasion to use the word in directing
letter, did not know how to spell it, nor
did the one to whom he applied know how,
and the question Yns only settled by an
appeal to the map, which IS far from be-
ing satisfactory, for it is spelt one way, on
some maps, aud another way on others.
1t is name suggested of nothing but
its Indian origin. Its primitive meaning is
wrapped up in obscurity; and its present
Interpretation extremely doubtful, some
thing is due TO custom, harmony, good
taste, adaptation, and our own sense and
love, of the beautiful, none Of which are
found in this outlandish name, some OF the
most beautiful names of our States and
rivers are of Indian origin; and because
they are beautiful they will serve to per-
petuate, in more enduring manner, the
name and fame of the aborigines, than it
they were engrayen on the marble column
or the granite obIisk But "Kanawhup
is not one Of those beautiful names, and
was never so considered by the Indians
themselves. It signifies, as some say,
"the bloody Iand"-a name given it no
doubt, to commemorate the sGnguinary
stfife between contending tribes; and We,
therefore, reject It for the simple and
more euphouious, the more suggestive aud
the better adapted name of western Yir-
ginian if some thing better cannot be
found. We have already too rivers and
one county, IN Western Virginia of that
name; quite enough one would think, to
perpetuRte the memory of the Indians and
their bloody deeds, without usiuga whole
state for that purpose. II either part of
the State must be called Kanawhn, let it be
Eastern Virginia. For with propriety it
can be 7called the bloody land, and we go
in for adaptations and for using names ex-
pressing qualities as well a. things, whose
disabilities are not excited at the idea of
laying aside the Virsipian and becoming a

Let no one forget, in any contingency
whatever, thut the Secession leaders are
the dggressors in the war now raging in
the land, and that upon their heads, hey
ond all peradventure, must rest the guilt
of the awful consequences. Although for
months before Mr.. Buchanan went out of
office they had not scrupled to commit all
sorts of overt acts, yet let it never be for
gotten that only fro days after he had
given place to his successor the Confeder-
ates passed an act calling for ''one hundred
thousand" men; and this was nearly six
before their attack on Fort Sumterl
Now, what besides, more than any other
act of the General Government, was made
use Of to inflame the South what but the
Presidents call for "seyenty-fiYe thousand'
men-twenty-five thousand in number less
than the Confederates had called for nearly
sir treeks before!
And yet, in the face of these astounding
facts-seldom thought of now in the hurry
of greater eVents-they have the hardihood
to denounce the Government for inaugur-
ating war; and the population of the Sc
coded States rush to the conflict, proclaim
ing it "holy war;" a war to "repel ag-
erosion"
In view of the undeniable facts in the
premises, in view of the fact that any con-
siderable body of men, anywhere, could be
persuaded into the belief that they are the
sinued against in such case, it would
seem to be the most astonished case of
obliquity of judgment on record false
belief, too; that they are ready to make
good in a trial ut arms, and in a submits
sion to hardships unnumbered.
Recurring to this, who can hope to con-
vince fanaticism utterly oblivious to the
facts in the case; who can reason with men
who are determined to listen to nothing
until well bcaten2 And this being so,
what is the use of holding up naked and
unarmed hands against myriad of mad
men, armed with deadly weapons who are
madly rushing forward to destroy all who
are opposed to them, at the behest Of q set
of unprincipled and ambitious demagogues
who seek all occasions to inAame their
passions to still greater degree2
The truth is there can be no terms made
with such until they are literally beaten to
stand-still and the nation may as we'll
accept the situation first as last Bent on
conquest" plunging forward on any pre-
text put forth by the enemies of free gov
eminent at their backs, soft words are
whsted upon them, and they will retort
only with blows, unless everything isyfeld-
ed TO them. Worked up to pitch of in
sanity upon their particular hobbies, no
one need look for surrender upon ordi-
nary grounds, such as compel submission
but they will accept defeat only when pow
erless to struggle longer, and let the ma
ton face up to such a contingency, there
fore, as to result inevitable.

How admirably Daniel s. Dickinson re-
Dukes those who profess to support the
war for the Union and yet oppose all the
measures which the administration adopts
to carry it oni And how well he exposes
those who cry GU. for peace between
treason and loyalty. In his speech at the
Cooper Institute he says:
'sYou, gentlemen, VINO are quivering
in your shoes, whoever you are-you,
peare men, fly from the Sodom and Co
morrah of treason while you have a
chance. Fly! The storm of popular in-
dignation is good deal nearer than yon
imagine, and the fire and birthstone that
will be sent upon you are not far in the
distance. They are almost up with you.
Don't stand there faltcriug. The day of
peace propositions is over. 1t is treason
now. You are marked out as an object of
scorn. You can no longer be in favor of
prosecuting the war and throwing queru-
lous objections in the face of the Admin
istration, besieged with every difficulty
If you mean to aid the government, along
with you, and shoulder your musket. 1t
you don't, shoulder your musket and go
into the opposition ranks. Start off we
will give you good Guidance, and play
you out 10 the Rogue's March. You can
no longer be upon both sides, in favor of
your country and against it, in favor of
the Union aud against it, in favor of prose-
cutting the war and against the administra-
tion. in every demonstration that they can
make. No; the great ball is opened /;
choose your partner aud take your position
on the Aoor, and we will see whether you
can keep step TO the music Of the Union or
not. III srJ .,.-i

It may therefore be remarked IN passing,
that foreign exchange must rule low both
from the foreign contributions IN aid OF
the Union, and as the result of the course
Of trade. As before limited, the foreign
exchange market is q close one, and with
an accidental small supply at any given
moment, prices can be asilyadvaneed by
those interested. But the general c1rrent
is too powerful to be stayed, for any length
of time. The New York Dry Goods i'm
ports last week were oBly.S 1853, sol, against
81, 262, 532 in the same week of 1860.
Meanwhile, the merchandise exports were
up to two millions per week, regularly.
The prospects for heavy grain export are
more and moro encouraging. In answer
to private intelligence by the Europa, flour
advanced 10 to 20 cts. per bbl., and wheat
TO cts. per bushel, on Saturday in
New York. The Government purchases of
provisions are almost sufficient of tn en-
selves to sustain the market. Last week,
the contracts for 5000 bbls. pork were
awarded, and proposals tor 5000 bbls. beef
will soon be acted upon Over and above
these lots, Government Is in the market for
10000 bbls. of pork, tobe delivered oc-

Business of all sorts seems to be on the
mending hand. Everybody says he is more
active than he has BEEN The export de-
,naud for domestic goodi is lively. Cotton

Government orders and purchases, and
private demand. dry goods aud manufac-

Upon the whole, thingslook well, wheth-
