Aid for Soldiers Families.

There are several causes why families Of
soldiers In our city are sometimes quite desti-
tute. Long sickness of the soldier and absence
from his regiment when it is paid off, so that
he does not get his pay, or il he is paid, he
bears much of his expense In getting home,
being often too sick TO go to an office when he
lands from steamboat, to get government
pass, and other causes which might be named.
In the beginning Of the war some gentle
men put into the Mayors hands, several hun
bred dollars to aid such families, which is now
nearly or quite all expended.
Application is often made to me to render
assistance ia such cases. In winter we can
help them from the Provident Association, but
at present there is no appropriation of money
for any, and what is raised is by special solic-
itation.
Now l would remind the public that our
duty to soldiers and their families are the
same at home as abroad, and would suggest
that part of the money raised for soldiers be
set aside to meet calls at home. If societies
or individuals are disposed they can put money
into the Mayors hands, or leave it with Ezra
Carter, Jr., Treasurer of the Provident Asso-
citation, or with any other responsible person.
IL they will notify me where can get money,
when calls are made, they viii oblige me as
well as relieve the suffering.

HIRAM CORNER, July 1st, 1864
To The Editors Of The Preston wednes-
day last, the ladies of this place, aided by
about two hundred of their stalwart brethren
(who had previously erected staff of eighty
feet height) threw TO the breeze magnifcen,
flag of our Union" purchased Of Messrs Ste
phenson d Co Of your city. Rev. Albert
Cole, of Cornish, Ia brief address. carried
the listening crowd in sympathy with the in
terest and deep founded zeal which character
ICES him in this period of our country's trials.
The Hiram Brass Band contributed largely to
the pleasure of the occasion,
No village in proportion to its population
has sent greater number of willing hearts
and strong arms to support the national ensign
on the field Of battle, and the enterprise and
industry still manifested here give ample ass
urance of its continued growth and unfaing
patriotism.

NEW YORK, July 6.
Death of VIM. Smith O'Brien.

A recent arrival at New York brings the
news of the death of the distinguished Irish
patriot and orator whose name heads this
brief article. He died in England. Mr.. o'Brien
was born in Clare County, Ireland, Oct. II,
1903; was educated at Harrow and Cambridge,
and began his parliamentary career in 1927,
representing borough in his native county.
In 1882 he was returned for Limerick county,
which he represented for many years. He
was prominent In the repea movement; and
the arrest Of O'Connell and other prominent
leaders only made him the more active in the
cause.
Shortly after the continental revolutions of
1913, he threatened in Parliament to establish
separate republic in Ireland, and accompa-
MED deputation which went to Paris to re-
quest aid for the oppressed nationality of Ire
land but, returning home, he was arrested
and tried for sedtion, but escaped conviction;
but shortly after, having been discovered in
stigating the peasantry to revolt, he was again,
arrested and conveyed to Dublin.
In October of 1913, he was tried at Clon-
fenced to death; but the sentence was CON-
muted to transportation for life, and in July
1919, he was sent to Van Dlemen's Land. In
1856, with the other Irish agitators, he re-
ceived pardon from the Queen and returned to
England. In 1850 O'Brien visited this coun-
try, and since his return to the Old World has
not been prominently before the public.
The Portland daily press., 1864-07-07

At the time the steamer Ashland arrived at
Portland, many OF the soldiers on board were
In want Of shirts, drawers, pantaloons, coats
and caps. The ladies Of the Camp Hospital
Association supplied all such articles as they
had on hand, together with all of the bandages
then prepared, and quantity of old cloth.
As the call for such articles mentioned are
now constant, it is earnestly solicited of the
citizens TO send any clothing, caps or soft hats,
10 No. 20 Park street, or TO the store of Mr..
James K. Fernald, Middle street. We are
confident that could any of our citizens have
seen the brave, patient and cheerful fellows
on board, many having lost an arm or leg, so
grateful for attentions, when it is us at home
who should be grateful to them, yet through
mistakes somewhere, needing so much, any
wants would have been gladly supplied.
Please, then, send to the Camp Hospital AS
ISOLATION, any garments which you may lay
aside, that We may not have to turn sadly
away when the suffering is before us. Any
rolled bandages will be most gratefully receiv-

Good Templars, Temperance organization
similar in its objects and ceremony to the or
der of the Sons Of Temperance, occurred on
Tuesday last. The place selected was Buxton
Grove, to which large number we're con-
veyed by the York d Cumberland Railroad,
under the care OF the smiling conductor of the

pleasantly, each seeking amusement in their
own way. S. White, Esq, of the Temperance
Journal, being called upon for some remarks,
addressed the large audience in an able and
forcible manner Mr.. White was listened to
with the deepest interest, and was frequently
applauded. Everything passed off pleasantly
and all returned to their homes in good spirits
and without accident.

PORTLAND AND VICINITY.
Sufferers from Rebel States.

A meeting was held last Sabbath evening in
the Second Parish Church, at which Rev. E.
Folsom, hospital chaplain at Cairo, travelling
under the special order OF the General COM
mandng that post, to solicit aid for the white
Union refugees, gave painfully interesting
account of these our suffering fellow citizens
Most OF them are women and children. many
of whom witnessed the murder of husbands
and fathers By rebel soldiers or guerilla bands,
and forced from their homes, are compelled to
fee for protection to the lines of the Federal
armies, and by military authority are trans
ported to Cairo, where the care of govern
ment ends.
Mr.. Folsom also presented this subject brief
ly, Sabbath afternoon at the Park Street Uni
tartan Church, and acknowledges collection
in aid of these sufferers, in the former church,
OF s12405, in the latter, of sSl.70, total S205.75,
for which Mr.. F., in behalf OF suffering hu-
manity, tenders his thanks.
Other persons who desire to aid in this very
benevolent work for giving relief to these
worthy and destitute sufferers, can leave do
nations in money with Hon. w. w. Thomas,
or Dea. S. w. Larrabee. Clothing for women
and children is greatly needed by the multi
tudes who have been robbed of their all. Do
nation In clothes for the naked, may be sent to
the rooms OF the Young Mems Christian As
ISOLATION on Temple street, at any hour be-
tween two and five o'clock =. NJ, any business
day Of the week, and they will be received by
the Ladies of the Christian Commission.
Shall there not be liberal response to this
humane and urgant call, from those who know
nothing by personal suffering from this terri
BILE war, in our bleeding country?
Money is used exclusively to transport these
sufferers, either to some relative or friend, or
where employment can be found to earn their
bread.
The number arriving at Cairo exceeds two
thousand per month. A large amount OF
money is required to meet expenses of trans
portation.

BALTIMORE, July @.
There was some excitement at Frederick
this morning. There was slight skirmish
between our pickets and small squad OF
rebels half way between Frederick and Point
OF Rocks. The rebels retreated.
From the movements perceived among the
enemy at Harper's Ferry today,it is supposed
that Hunters forces were actively pressing
them in the rear. Nothing definite could be
ascertained, but there is every reason to be-
lieve that Hunter will be heard from to some
purpose before long. Every possible precau-
ton has been made to guard against the pos
sibility of surprise from movement by the
enemy in this direction.
