AID FOR THE SUFFERERS,
A WHOLESALE CLOTHING COLLECTION.

New YoRK, Oct 10-Early yesterday
morning between thirty and forty wagons
started up town to conect what clothing the
citizens of New York had collected Cor
shipment to the suffering victims of yellow
fever in Southern cities. A large corps of
messengers were sent ahead of the wagons
to notify the residents 10 have their bun
dies ready, and therefore there was no
delay when the wagons called at houses,
and they quickly began to fill up with
packages of all sizes and shapes.
AT many houses four five and six bun
dies were handed out, while in more than
one instance whole trunks full of clothing
were ready for the collecr ors. Among the
articles received were clothing, hats, shoes,
blankets shirts, quilts, pillows, &c, &c. A
party of little girls sitting on the steps of
the church offered their bonnets shawls
and cloaks. Most of the prominent firms
contributed the services of horses, wagons
and drivers. The Committee estimate that
the collections will amount to six thousand
cubic feet. 1t will take several days to get
over the entire city.
