We have been occupied this week in ar
ranging and despatching the articles do
mated for the Union refugees in Kansas
and Cairo. The touching stories of misery
and suffering among these unfortunate
people ought to bring out liberal donstions
from our citizens. Rev. E. Folsom has
presented the claims of the refugees gath
cred at Cairo, and we are ready to send
forward sll boxes intended for distribution
there. The work is in charge of the SAM
tary agents, and will be faithfully done.
ALI articles Of women's and children's
wear are needed, or material for making
into garments. Merchants in this city
or in the country who can spare full pieces,
or even remnants of old style or shop-worn
calico, delaine, or any stout goods, are So
licited to donate them to us. The ladies Of
our Society can make them up into ser
vieeable garments for the ragged and half
naked Union families that have been
driven from their homes by the cruel for
tunes Of war, and now beg from us the
charity that they have right to expect
will be bOuntifully given. s..
We have already published one letter
from our agent in Leavenworth, in regard
to the condition Of the refugees at Fort
same source, and hope its urgent call will
be needed by the benevolent Of our city
and elsewhere:

SOLDIERS AID SOCIETY.

s5 BANK srREEr, CLEvELAxD, August Is, 1865.
The collections taken up for our benefit
in the city churches on National Thanks
giving day, August 9Th, amounted to about
S225. for which timely aid and kind re-
membranes we heartily thank our many
friends in this city. The business ac-
acknowledgement has already appeared in
our regular column Of receipts in the CleEe-
land Herald. We have had this week from
the little girls, some gifts so cbsrmingly
prOfered that we cannot withhold special
notice Of them. Helen, Fanny, and Rosa
Smith, Ella ROckafellOw and Kate Winter
have brought us the proceeds of series Of
juvenile tableau parties, while the mimic
bazaar of Lucy Morse and Florence Brai-
nard added another welcome donation to
our treasury.
The little boys and girls of the North
can do q great deal for the benefit of the
soldier. They have shown themselves very
ingenious in finding out what is TO be done,
and very quick and active in doing. By
way of suggestion we publish again the
circular of Rev. B. w. Chidlaw to the chill
dren
TO ALL THE BOYS AND GIRLS IN THE
NORTH.
o. S. SANITARY STEAMER DUSLEITH,
On THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER, April q. !
We have just finished the distribution Of
our precious cargo of good things for our
sick and we'll soldiers in the hospitals end
camps, from Cairo, Illinois, TO Young's
Point, Louisiana. These things were much
needed, and gratefully received.
Will your kind hearts and willing hands
work for the soldiers2 You may ask what
can we do2 You can work in your gar
dens and fields, plant and cultivate pota-
toes, tomatoes, cabbage, onions, Sc. You
can gather strawberries, raspberries, cur
rants and blackberries, and your mothers
will can them. Your apples, peaches,
pears, and plums can be cut and dried, and
put up in small bags, then these rich treas
ures Of your gardens, fields and orchards,
the products Of your patriotic industry,
sent to the Soldiers Aid Society, and thus
to the o. S. Sanitary Commission, will
reach the soldier, help him to get well, and
cheer his heart.
Begin to plan and to iOork at once. Keep
at it, and thousands of our brave soldiers
sharing your gifts will rise and call you
blessed. B. W. G.

The daily Green Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1861-1865, 1863-05-21

The Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle saysthat the rebe
hold upon the Mississippi river, once lost is gone
forever, and that it would be far better to sacrifice
Richmond, Charleston, Savannah or Mobile than
to yield the river by which the Confederacy will be
rent in twain, the West hopelessy cut off from the
East, and vast section of the best producing por
ton of the country subject to the depredations and
spoilations of the enemy. The very thought of
such result is oxcrutiaing" Of the late raid into
Mississippi, the Chronicle remarks ,'...
"The boldness and mpuaence Of the Federals
in some cases were remarkable. A couple OF their
scouts were sent into Hazlehurst an hour or two
before their raid upon the place, who walked bold
ly into the telegraph Office and penned dispatch
to Jackson, stating that the Yankee raiders had
turned to the northeast. Their true character,
however, being recognized, there was some talk of
arresting them, when they-the Yankees-drew
their pistols, defed the officers and men Of the
town, mounted :helr horses and rejoined their
commands, then within two or three miles of the
place. After. which the whole force entered the
town, in squads of fifty and hundred-several
honrs' interval between the van and rear guard
as lesurely and with as much nonchalance as our
country people would ride into town on gala
day."

From the recent speech of Mr.. Crittenden, at

notwithstanding the policy of raising negro ar.
mics and the talk about negro equality with white
men as soldiers-and voted against them all

the reduction being made to the decline in

PROCLAMATION BYkTHE PRESIDENT.
Whereas, 1t is provided by an act of Con-
gress, entitled ''An Act to Further Provide
for the Public Defense" approved on the
10th day of April, 1852, and by another act
of Congress, approved ON the 9th Septem-
Der, 1852, entitled can Act to amend an
Act entitled an Act to Provide Further for
the Public Defense" approved 18th April,
1852, that the President be authorized to
call out and place in the military service OF
the Confederate States, for three years, I'M
less the war shall have been sooner ended,
all white men who are residents of the
Confederate States between the ages of Is
and 40 years, at the time the call may be
made, and who are not at such time legally
exempted from military service. or such
part thereof as in his Judgment may be ne
cessary to the public defense; and
Whereas, In my judgment the necessi-
ties of the public defense require that every
man capable of bearing arms, between the
ages aforesaid, should now be called out
to do his duty in the defense of his coun-
try, and in driving back the invaders now
within the limits Of the Confederacy:
Now, therefore, L, Jefferson Davis, Pres
ident of the Confederate States of America,
do, by virtue fthe powers vested in me as
aforesaid call out and place in the military
service of the Confederate States all white
men residents of said States, between the
ages ol 10 anu I'D years, not legally exempt
ed from military service; and do hereby
order and direct that all persons subject to
this call, and not now in the military SER
vice, do, upon being enrolled, forthwith
repair to the conscript camps established
in the respective States of which they may
be residents, under pain of being held and
punished as deserters in the event of their
failure to obey this call, as provided in said
laws.
And T do fnr4bar ordar and diract that
the enrolling officers of the several States
proceed at once to enroll all persons en-
braced within the terms of this proclama-
ton, and not heretofore enrolled.
And do further order that it shall be
lawful for any person embraced within this
call to volunteer for service before enroll
ment, and that persons so volunteering be
