The Ladies Of Berlin Street at Work.

Mr.. EDITOR. VIII you allow me space to SAY
that the patriotic ladies OF Berlin Street are
busily engaged in collecting aud preparing hos
pta stores for our sick and wounded soldiers ?
Only one week ago they held their first meeting
and they have how box OF articles for hospital
use-including shirts, quilts sheets pillows socks
towels, landkerchels, bandages, elc.,--in good
state OF forwardness. AT their meeting at MIR
Wheelock 5, on Friday, two young lady solicitors
Miss DENIS Bumham and Miss Mary Camp
bell paid into the treasury some seventeen dol
lars in cash, collected by them in small sums IN
the immediate neghborhood. Much praise Is &C.
corded and most justly too, to these young ladies',
for their fidelity and perseverance in executing
the onerous duties Of their trust The money
is to be appropriated to the purchase Of material,
TO be made up into articles for the use and COM
fort Of the brave but unfortunate defenders OF
our Union.
The next meeting will be held at Mr.. Vince
locks, on Tuesday afternoon, and doubt not, the
good work. now so successfully inaugupted, will
be carried forward to completion, -dntiI every sex
or wounded soldier from Vermont shall be made
to realize that there are womanly hearts left be-
hind who will, SO far as may be, see that their
every want is kindly cared tor BERLIN SIDE.
