NEW HARrfoRD.-On Sunday afternoon, of this week, ". s. Garter, Esq, of Milwaukee, Wis, gave, in the Congregatio nal Church, a most graphieand interesting account of lis observations, and experience, in the army of the Potomac, as delegate of the Christian Commission. He spoke for three-quarters of an hour, commanding the undivided attention ot the audience, to the close of his eloquent address. The following statements by him, serve to show the magnitude ot the work prose. cutel by the Christian Commission. The amount contributed in aid of the Commission, since January lsb. 1864, was about one million of dollars, exclusive of stores, which amounted, doubtless, to as much more The expenditures for September just past, were one hundred and eighty thousand dollars. Last winter, IS chap. els, averaging in size our country churches were erected in the army of the Potomac, alone, and the conversions throughout our great army, the past year, exceeded the num- Der of conversions in all the home churches of this country during the same period.
