the 22d February, an entertainment, the
proceeds Of which are 10 go to that hospital.
But in order that tho assistance rendered
shall be'iu some faint degree commcnsu-
rate with the noble services Which those
liory-crowned mon have rendered, we now
call upon the ladies throughout the State

and shall We know them 10 be iGnguishing
in a distant land, with wounds and disease,
and not strip the very Jewels from our per-
sons TO send them? Amid the toll of camp
and the perils Of battle array, our noble
men in Virginia are giving concerts for
their hospitals in Richmond, tho weary sol.

fort Of his noble brothers, who, borno from
the altar Of their fame torn and bleeding,
lie, sick and suffering in the hospitals
among strangers and in IL stranger land.

work; let no one rob US of the honored
privilege Of providing for those heroes, ev-
cry one OF whom has performed deeds for

that the flag Of truce from the Brooklyn
