the total amount OF subscriptions brought up by the
aid socities all over the United States may amount
to about $4,000, by far the greater part OF which
| has been made up by direct collections, although
there have been made efforts at several places eS

also by the arrangements OF concerts, festivals,
! fairs, &c.
Up to this time very little, If anything seems tc

ton IN the country; and we know only from ST
The community to participate IN The efforts Q
the cities, and especially to patronize the fall
| which has been established by the ladies Of said

| cties; for instance New York, Chicago, St. Louis
Newark especial aid societies have been established
all of which are preparing fairs, and at the sam,
time do all they IN the line Of direct collections
| of money.
In consideration Of the short time elapsed since
the meeting at Chicago 1t could scarcel,
| OF societies should have answered Il
the proposition made there for uniting the aid socie
ties oil over the country into one German Patriots
AID Society Of the United States; and, therefore,
may be proper to delay the communication In regar
to this movement for general report to be given
