MEssRs EVANS AND WATSON: GENTLEMEN
The small size No. l Salamander safe which
l purchased from your agent, Mr.. Adam K,
Bar, in Lancaster City, on July goth, 1853,
has been subjected to very severe test,
which 1T wilhstood in a most satisfactory
manner. This Safe, containing all my books
together with valu Rble papers belonging to
myself and some to my neighbors and friends,
and represeting value of over Twenty Ihous-
and Dollars, (S20,O00) was in my Mill which
was destroyed on the night of the 9th of Ju-
ly, 1860, and passed through the fiery ordeal
unscathed. The Safe was on the second Hoor
and fell to the basement of the Mill, and was
subjected for six hours to an intense heat
among the rui.ls, which was greatly increased
by the combustion of large quantity of grain
confined within the brick walls After the
fire the safe was opened and the books and
papers taken out in a state of perfect preser-
yation. the paper not even being discolored.
This fact was, however, to many bystanders
better recommendation of your Safes than
could be expressed in any other words from
me. ours Respectfully,

THE REASONS FOR THE DRAFT.-Per-
sons in situation to know, assign the
following as the chief reasons for the
Presidents resort to drafting:
Fust-The representations of New York
bankers and capitalists, repeated by one
Committee after another, from week to
week, and of late with special urgency,
that the finances of the country could not
stand the slow and extravagant war policy
that was being pursued They demanded,
in the strongest possible terms, that the
utmost energy of the nation should be put
forth, that National exhaustion and the
drain of the money might be stopped at
once by ending the war.
iSecond-The urgency Of the radical
Republicans, who complained bitterly of
the Presidents failure to meet their views
on certain points ot his policy, and who
demanded that if the President would not
take their policy, he should at least, if he
expected the support of large portion of
the party that elected him, inaugurate
some vigorous measures. a very heated
interview of this kind last week left the
President convinced that he could not
keep the loyal people Of the North united
In support of his measures, unless promptly
convinced of their being adequate to the
crisis.
7Aird-B 7sides the representations of
the politicians, the universal demand of
the people that the Government should
adopt measures likely to secure success.
Fourth-The belief that the rebels had
now got their army up to the largest pos
sibie number, and were so exhausted
that such a force as we could now bring
into the field would utterly crush the
rebellion

Gen. Hunters Negro Brigade.
HIS ANSWER TO THE RESOLUTION OF
INQUIRY.

WASHINGTON, July 2.-The correspon-
dence regarding the raising Of negro brig.
ade was laid before the House to day. It
is rather lengthy. Portions of it caused
considerable laughter. General Hunter says
to the first question: therefore reply that
regiment of slaves has been, or is being
organized in this department.
They are however, fine regiment of per,
sons, whose late masters are fugitive rebels
men who everywhere fly before the ap-
pearance of the national flag, leaving their
servants behind them to shift as best they
can for themselves. So far indeeI, are the
loyal persons composing this regiment from
seeking to avoid their presence, that they
join in iull and effective pursuit of their tu.
gitive and traitorous proprietors.
To the second question be says: The in.
structions given to Brigadier General Sher.
man by Secretary Cameron and turned over
to me by succession for guidance, do dis
tinctively authorize to employ all loya! per-
soIs Offering their services in defense OF
The Union and for the suppression of this
rebellion, in any manner which l might
see fttest that the circumstances might call
tor.
There is DO restriction as to the charac~
ter or color of the persons about to be en-
pioyea, or the nature of the employment,
whether civil Or military, in which their
services shall be used, and conclude, there
fore, that have been authorized to enlist
fugitive slaves as soldiers, should any such be
found in the Department. No such char
acters, however, have yet appeared within
view of our most advanced pickets.
The loyal slaves were remaining on their
plantations to welcome, aid, and supply Us
with food, labor and information.
To the third interrogatOry it is my pain.
fol duty to reply that l have never received
any specific authority for issuing clothing,
uniforms, arms, equipments, &C., to the
troops in question. My general instructions
from Mr.. Cameron to employ them in any
manner might find necessary, and the mil
itary exigencies of the department and the
country being my only, but in my judg-
ment, sufficient justification.
Mrs. Elvira EIlet, wife of the late Colo.
mel Ellet, died in Philadelphia on Sunday
