An Appeal FOR OUR SOLDIERS.

An APPEAL FOR OUR SOLDIERS
He who said, [" 1t is more blessed to give than to
receive knew the depths of the humsu heart, and
its capacities for sorrow and for joy. Better than
the qualification OF the insane thirst fol gold, the
hunger of acquisition-more grateful than the rak'
ing together of possession for self-more blessed
than the gathering and boarding, is the luxury OF
giving Noble in kind, and higher in degree is
beneticence than avarice and sef-seekng. II it is
thus benefcient and kind to bestow gifts upon
friends who are among us and in the enjoyment of
the comforts of home thrice blessed is it to labor
for those who, used to the couveniences of home,
now far away in the armies OF our country, and
exposed to all the disadvantages incident to the
camp rksome under the most favorable circum-
stances, but now aggravated by the inclemency oil
the weather, and the near approach OF winter
We are led To make these remarks from having
met on the few days since, Miss Mary Pen
held, who has been for the past year engaged as
nurse IN the marine hospital Padukah, Ky. Miss
Penfeld informed US that our brave self sacrific-
ing soldiers, confined in the bosp,tals sick
were in want of many things to make them com
Portable both in the way of clothing, and of some
thing palateable for them to eat as they become
convalesceut. Among other things of which they
stand in great need is good fresh butter, to which
the hospital in which Miss Pen6eld is engaged, has
been stranger for nearly the whole of the pas
year. We know that The ladies of this village have
done well-nobly; and we satisfied that there
is no lack of loyalty among them, but we fear tina
they do not take that interest in brave soldiers
that they should. II the old society has beer
discontinued. let new one be formed imme
diateIy, let meetings be held, and each one make
an effort TO see how they best do their part in
this great struggle for right. Who among our fai,
friends will start the ball in motion:
