UNION REruoEEs.-Some forty or fifty
Union refugees who have been driven from
their property, their homes and firssides by
the rebels, will arrive in this city this eve
ming or tomorrow morning. What is to be
done with thems They are penniless,
poorly clothed, hungry, and in land Of
strangers. Let it not be said that they are
friendless here; but let proper steps be t.
ken at once TO provide for their comfort
To those among them who are able to work,
work should be provided at once by our citi-
Gems. Those who are sick, inflrm, or too
young TO perform hbor, must be protected
from cold and hunger. We hope the au-
thoritics win see that temporary provision
is made for their comfort until something
moro permanent can be done in their be-
half It is IN awful thing to be turned from
home any time, but more especially is it
grievous at this season Of the year. Let US
show ourselves truly charitable.
P. s. Since writing the above we learn
that it has been decided to provide these
unfortunates with temporary quarters at
Camp Kinsman, where they can be made
comfortable for the present. .
At meetiag held at the Office Of the State
Bank this afternoon, subscription paper
for the immediate relief Of the refugees was
started, and Messrs. Lowry, Preston and
Sanders were appointed committee to So
licit further subscriptions. The prospect is
that full provision will be made.
MILrTARY ELEcrroE.-Among the men,
bers of Of the militia organizations Of this
city and county there is not little specula-
ton and talk about who are to be honored
with the several field Offices to be disposed
Of on Saturday. Among the Germans we
understand that there is . strong feeling in
favor Of Col. Perczel for the Colonelcy.-
Among other organizations, Col. l. M. Gift
ford is held in high favor, IS is also Capt.
Fraser and Colonel Egbert. These are all
excellent men, though from what we are
able to learn we should say that Col. Gif-
ford's chances are the best. He is popu-
lar man among al classes, and would un-
doubtedly make IN excellent Colonel. For
Lieut.. Colonel, We hear the names OF Chris.
Muller, Col. Egbert, John NJ. Day and 9th.
ers mentioned, and for Major, our friend
Capt. fischer, Of Der Demokrat, Capt. G.
n. Eldridge, Capt. Bl. Peters are talked Of.
The main object for the present is to get
. competent Commissary, for upon the re-
sponsibility and personal sacrifices much
will depend during the home campaigns,
general musters, etc. Among others we
hear the name Of Milo K. Parks suggested
as worthy and competent.
There will be lively time atths election,
no doubt, and also 1t the first general mus-
ter, which it is hoped General Baker win
order Is soon after the organization u prao-
ticabls. Eternal vigilancs i the price Of
Liberty.
