TIERS, the celebrated American prevention
of Climatic Diseases, have been introduced
into unhealthy regions, their effects in
sustaining the health, yigor, and animal
spirits of those whose pursuits subjected
them to extraordinary risks from exposure

On 'CHANGE.-The Board of Trade
met at Preston Bros, yesterday. The
meeting was called to order by Capt.
Carson, Vice-President. The market
reports from New York and Cincin
natl were read. Several firms sub
scribed their names and became mem
bers. There were quite number of
specimens of -four on exhibition :;
some specimens of tobacco; and Mr..
I. DeckerShad some specimens of oil
and soap. The Price List was read
and ordered printed; it will be ready
for delivery to-day.
These meetings are proving inter
esting, and are EWell attended, as a
general thing. Merchants and bust
ness men are beginning to feel an in
terest in the move, which, we think,
will be d Success By-the-way, why
could not the funds collected by the
old Board be paid over into the hands
Of the Treasurer of the new Board?
1t could and would be used to a good
purpose. We learn that there is quite
sum in the hands of the Treasurer
of the old Board that is now lying idle.
The present Board have put into prac-
teal operation what they proposed,
and with the aid of the funds of the
old Board would be enabled to pro-
cure room in which to hold meet
ings. A small room would be sufficient
at present. In the course of a few
months, working as those gentlemen
are now, our city could have Mer-
chants Exchange that would do great
credit to the enterprise of our mer-
chants.
A committee was appointed yester-
day to look after room, with instruc-
tons to report to-day. The Board
will meet at the same place at three
O'Clock. All who are favorable to
this movement are invited to attend
to-day.

SOLDIERS BEC0RD.-Ihe recording
Secretary of the Soldiers and Sailors
Union, for this County, is having a
record prepared that will contain a
short history of each soldier who be-
comes a member. The Record is
made up of columns with heads, which
when filed will reach over the period
of the enlistment of each soldier.
First, will be set down the soldiers
name, then the war in which he
fought, rank, company, regiment or
battery in which he served; State
from which he volunteered; date OF
enlistment, and date of discharge
from the United States service; and
such remarks as may be appropriate.
In the column of remarks it is intend
ed to give short history of each SOL
der, such as the number of battles he
was in, the marches he may have
made, the number of times he may
have been wounded, if wounded at all,
his suferings in rebel prison cells, and
all other matters of interest to pre-
serve on the Record. There are now
over $50 members belonging to this
organization, all of whom have fur
nished part of their histories, such
as rank, company, regiment, State,
etc., but the information intended for
the column of remarks has not yet
been obtained. At a regular
meeting, it would be impossible
for the Secretary to take all
this history down unless each
soldier would make it out in writing
and hand it to the Secretary to be re-
corded at such time as he would have
at his disposal. 1t has been suggested
that all those who have already be-
come members furnish the Secretary
with such information in writing as
above indicated, which may be set OPP
posite each name. By this plan the
history of each man may be made up
complete, and when completed, the
record will be one of the most inter
esting that has ever been made up In
this county. For instance, we know
of soldiers who have participated in a
score of battles, while there are others
who have been wounded in almost
every engagement in which they have
fought. There are those who entered
the service as private soldiers, and
rose to the rank Of captain, major,
lieutenant-colonel and colonel. A
short biographical sketch of each one
is what is proposed, and we think
that the suggestion as to the method
of obtaining the history is a good one,
which will obviate great deal Of
trouble, and save time as far as those
who are already members are con
cerned. Capt. Leavitt is the Record
ing Secretary, and will have the book
ready the latter part of this week,
His Office is on Third Street, between
Main and Locust-up stairs-where
he will be found ready to wait on all.
