Clothing for Sick and Wounded Soldiers.

Clothing for Sick and Wounded Soldiers.
The Legislature of Pennsylvania, at the
last session, passed joint resolution to
furnish clothing to wounded Pennsylvania
volunteers. In visiting hospitals for this
purpose, it was found difficult to single cut
Pennsylvania volunteers, and leave the
soldier from Maine or Iowa, in the adjoin-
ing cot, unsupplied. To meet this diff
Guilty, Surgeon General Smith, of Pennsyl-
vania, visited Washington, and endeayored
to get an order to supply all soldiers whose
clothing had been destroyed in battle
There being no act of Congress authoriz-
ing it, the necessary order could not be is
sued, and the matter rested, leaving Penn
sylvania the only State which had by law
provided for her wounded soldiers. Hon
James 7. Hale, the member of Congress
from the Centre district, interested him
self warmly in behalf of the wounded SOL
diers; and, though the adjournment of
Congress was near at hand, he brought the
matter before the House, and succeeded in
having joint resolution passed authoriz-
ing clothing to be issued to all soldiers
whose clothing was injured in battle, or
destroyed through the casualties of war
Thus, through the efforts of Judge Hale,
an evil, which army officers have long
sought to correct, had been remedied and
it only remains for the War Department to
issue the proper orders, to have our brave
soldiers who have lost their clothing in
battle, or from wounds, freely supplied by
the United States. We trust there will be
no delay in issuing the proper order to all
quartermasters having charge of clothing,
to carry out the object Of the joint rcsolu-
ton SO honorable 20 Congress, and SO just
to our brave soldiers.

The Harrisburg Patent Democratic Con
vention, Thos. Jefferson and the &" Ma.
ours"

Among the resolutions adopted by the
patent democracy at Harrisburg on the 18th
of July was one that the negro was of an in-
ferior race. Perhaps this may be so as a
general thing, yet we think we can show
very satisfactorily that the colored man is
not inferior to the material which composed
that convention. Some people in their
reading may possibly have come across the
name of fBanneker, connected with an Alma
nae which for a number of years was the
only one used in Pennsylvania, Maryland,
Delaware and Virginia. Strange as it may
sound, this Banneker was a self-educated
negro, of pure African descent, who with
out instruction or instruments actually got
up that almanac, and afterwards, when fur
nished with books, corrected some errors
in an eminent mathematician table of To-
garithms As we think it will be admit
ted that the combined talent in that con-
vention, including Geo. Bates, Esq, rep
resentative delegate from Mifflin, could not
construct an almanac if the whole gang
were to be hung for it, most people will be
apt to doubt their ability to judge races of
human beings Besides, Thomas Jefferson,
when Secretary of State under Gen. Wash
ington, disagreed with such conclusion,
as the following letter to Banneker will
show:
PHILADELPHIA. August Both, 1871.

both in Africa and America. can add with
truth, that no one wishes more ardently to
see a good system commenced for raising
the condition both of their body and mind, to
what it ought to be, as fast as the imbecility
of their present existence and other circum-
stances which cannot be neglected will ad-
NIT.

Dsa-John W. Cross of East Salem, 3 d
Sergeant in Go. l., of the SD regiment,
Capt. Dimm, was wounded in one of the
battles before Richmond and afterward
took the typhoid fever. He was placed on
board the steamer Knickerbocker for the
purpose of being conveyed to Fortress
Monroe, but died on the passage. The
correspondent of the Philadelphia Inquirer,
who was present at his death, gives the fol-
lowing account:
Yesterday very affecting incident oc.

ing his voice failing, he began to feel about
among the bed clothing under his head
for something which he evidently wanted.
In moment he drew forth small pack
age, which, unwrapped, revealed daguer-
reotype case. Unclasping it he gazed
with tilmy eyes upon the faces of his wife
and two children. AS death clutched
closer about his vitals, he handed it to a
gentleman connected with the Washing

tion, whispering, will you not send it
home? Tell ney ,oite IL aoas the last object
