Clothing for Soldiers Families
An Appeal from tIse Ladies' Branch
of ske Sanitary ConanRkssSoGas

On last Wednesday, at the meeting OF the
Sanitary Commission, an unusual number of
destitute soldiers wives visited u.s. and when
we we're asked by some If we had Old clothes
suitable to he made over for boys, il occurred
to us that il would be well to make an appeal
to the public asking for cast of cI02ssng OF all
kinds, buG more particularly Tor gentlemens
wear. Housekeepers frequently know Of
worthy poor people they are 10 the habit OF
supplying With suck things. But We suppose
unmarried gentlemen generally have numbers
Of such things they 90 not know how to dis
pose Of.
# 80, the ladies Of the Sanitary Commission
will gladly receive them to distribute TO these
poor creatures, and the grateful hearts OF the
shiysring poor viii bless you for your generos-
ity. st the present rates of prices persons will
readily see the impossibility of our purchasing
heavy goods suitable for boys clothing until
our treasury is replenished by the proceeds Of
the Fair. We intended this notice to appear
in Tuesdays paper that persons might have 8
better opportunity TO select such articles ai
they might feel inclined 30 give us, but as We
had no Tuesdays paper. we concluded 1t wonlc
be better to make the appeal for this morning
rs we expect to have q vacation of two weeks
We sincerely hope this viii be literally re
! sponded to. The ladies meet st the courtroom

The Danish war has recommended, as we
learn by the latest advices from Europe The
London Conference failed in Its efforts to secure
crnment sent orders to Marshal Won Wrangel
to resume hostilties. This took place on the
26th Of last month. Since then the Danes have
retreated from the Island OF Alsen, after some
hard fighting, aud we shall doub t!css hear soon
that poor Denmark is being crushed by her
German encmies. 1t was stated in the Berlin
journals that the German sovereigns had come
to an understanding that Prussia, with the con-
currcnce Of Austria, should propose at the Fede-
raj Diet that the Germanic Confederation should
declare war against Denmark.
The excitement in England consequent upon
tho resumption OF hostilities was immense, it
clearly being the desire Of the people that
their government should aid the Danes. Lord
Palmerston, however, has declared that Eng
land cannot alone 60 to war for Denmark.
Assured that no other Power would side with
them in favor Of Denmark, Lord Palmerston
will not undertake a war which would be
based merely upon chiyairous, and not selfish,
motives. the latter being the usual incentive
where England is concerned. The opposition
members OF the English Parliament are en-
deavoripg to ouss Lord Palmerstou and his
Cabinet on this Danish war question, and with
every show OF success, as the popular will is
in their favor. Lord Derby, who Is at the head
of the opposition. would succeed Palmerstou
as Premier, and it Is asserted he would inaugu-
rate warlike policy. Should this course be
parsued, England might regain the prestige she
has lost Still more: she might thus battle
NEpoleon's plans for the supremacy of France
throughout Europe.
England should take bold stand on this
war. She should send large feet to CO
operate with the Danish vesscls-of-war in Ger
man waters. She should enter into the italian
question with the determination of arousing
the people against Austria The fate of Vcnetia
she might set,le at once. With a powerful
give up all hold upon Italian soil. Then II
were an easy matter to rouse the Hungarians
TO one more struggle against the hated Haps-
burg. In fact, Eng land might at once assume
the position Napoleon has arrogated-that
Of the defender OF oppressed nationalities
She would gain for herself the good will of the
masses throughout Europe, and become what
Napoleon had seemed-lhe head of the great
revolutionary party. The Italians, the Hun
garians, the Poles, would all become instru-
mcnts in her hands for the furthcrance Of her
influence and the downfall Of the power OF her
enemies, and thus England might resume the
great political sway she so long exercised II
the statesmen Of England were equal to the
occasion they could desire no better opportu.
nifty OF regaining the prestige and influence
they have SO jeopardizcd of late.

Hekpows, as every one else does, that the gov
ernmenf,wan ants these men now, while the enemy
are at the gates of the capital, and while one Of
our great cities is perhaps in hourly peril. and
be says that be will send twelve thousand in
week or two weeks, OF month at most he
takes all bis steps cautiously, to appear right on
the record rs the patriotic Governor Of patri-
Otic State. He has ordered eight regiments to
get ready; and if they cannot get ready
ordered eight regiments that are only
regiments in name, while he had subject
to his orders full regiments, and could have
had his twelve thousand men in Washington at
this hour; and the full regiments were ready
and many members eager to 60. We
have received many communications to this
effect. We know that the impression prevails
that the members Of the city regiments have
not the same alacrity for service that they had
in the first year Of the war, or that they had
last year; but we are assured that the number
of those inclined to 60 is much greater than the
number Of those opposed to going. In refer
encs to the alleged danger Of leaving the city
WisnVus hhteoiy PicteStioub We udtc EcCSltcu
the following communication:-
TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD.
NEW YORK. July II, 1864
To aiiay any undue excitement which may exist, and
to prevent the danger apprehendod in the OF
organized militia OF this city TO fepe The invasion Of
loyal territory, the services or tho veterans OF the
Sickies Brigade hereby cordially city
and State authorities. Respectfully,
JOHN ). AUSTIN, late Colonel Third Excelsior.
Lieutenant Colonel HOLT, First Excelsior.
MAJOR MEEHAN, First Excelsior.
We are assured that this gallant organization
could muster nearly five hundred men, and
upon such nucleus il would be easy to ex-
temporize, in case OF necessity, force able to
put down any riotous demonstration. The five
hundred veterans of the Excelsior Brigade
would be Of more real service against rioters
than any two or three full militia regiments in
the city.
There is, indeed, no good reason at all why
we should not send the requisite amount Of
men at once. Nothing prevents us from send
ing the men now except Governor Ssymour's
intention that they shall be sent in August,
when they cannot help to stem the tide Of rebel
success on Northern soil.
