DATE OF COLLECTION CHANGED.
Collection for Hospital Of Maine Volunteers
Will Be July 3.

The date of the collection. that is to
be taken for the benefit of the hospital
Of the 1st Maine Volunteers, explained
in another column, as having been set
by the churches, Sunday, when the
circular regarding the matter was
read, will have to be postponed to the
first Saturday in July, as it is the date
of the collection of the Maine General
hospital
The promoters of the scheme did not
think Of the latter collection until Sat
urday, when they mailed the following
postal to those to whom the circular
was mailed, but it was received too
late by many, so that the original cir
cular was the only one read:
When the appeal was made for funds
for the sick and wounded of the LIST
Maine Volunteer Infantry it was not
understood that the Maine General
hospital had asked for their annual col
lection to be taken the last Sunday in
June Therefore we suggest that the
collection for the Maine volunteers
asked for in the letter of June Is be
taken, the first Sunday in July,
and that this day be observed
wherever practicable to promote public
interest in our soldiers at the front.

Work Of The Army and Navy Christian Com
mission

The Army and Navy Christian Com
mission are doing a remarkable work
among the soldiers and sailors. Their
work is distinct from that Of the Red
Cross Society in that 1t has 10 do en-
tirely with the moral and religious
needs of the men.
The commission recognizes the fact
that the life Of the camp is one Of pc
culiar temptation. There are a great
many hard characters in and around
the camps who are there for the pur-
pose of leading the soldiers astrav.
Even those who would he glad to live
clean lives find ii very hard to do 50.
TO help the men in this direction the
commission is putting within reach Of
each reginent.as fast as possible,a tent
fitted With comfortable seats. good
BOOKS aud papers, writing materials.
etc. These the men are invited to use
without charge. Each tent IS in charg"
Of q Christian man, who gives the sol
diers . hearty welcome ana any help
he cam. The men thoroughly apprc-
cidte these tents and they are nearly
always crowded.
Evangelist y. l.. Moody who is chair
man Of the iIvangelistic department of
the commission has sent several promi-
nent ministers and evangelists to the
various army camps To hold meetings.
Dr. II. NJ. Wharton is now at Tampa
and Rev. II. ~ Torrey and Mai. D. w
WhittIe at Chickamauga. They hold
from one to FIVE services daily, ana
always with crowds Of attentive sol
dirrs to listen. The pastor Of one Of
the churches at Tampa say he never
saw such responsive audiences: and
Mr.. Torrey who has been in the min
istry for years. much of the time in
eVangelistic work. says he never saw
such hungry audiences nor 50 many
deeply moved. One would hardly have
thought Of the war affording one of the
best opportunities to preach the Cos
pei 10 men that the church has had in
this generation hut Mr. Moody says
he believes it to he so.
The commission has furnished thou
sands of good books to the vessels of
the navy and sent lot to the army
now on its way to the Philippines.
They are planning to send tent and
two men with the next expedition.
This work is entirely dependent upon
the contributions Of the public. Such
a work ought certainly. to re
c"ivc a liberal support. Contributions
may lie sent to Mr.. ID. l.. Moody, East

THREE BATTERIES
May Be Made Up from I'd
Regiment, N. G. S. M.
though No Instructions Have Been
Received from War Department.
Circular Letters Read in Churches. Sunday.
Regarding Hospital Fund.

There has been no information re-
celVed by the adjutant general rela
tive 10 the dispatch sent out from
Washington, saying that Maine would
be asked to furnish three heavy batter
les as the remainder of her quote I'M
der the second call for troops. Cen
eral Richards has no doubt but that
Adjutant General Corbin has made up
the apportionment as the papers have
stated, but as yet no official notice Of
the matter has been sent to the State
officials
Whether is was a surprise to the
state officials or not, can not be stated
but as Adjutant General Richards looks
at it, it would seem that the surprise
IS not so very great.
When asked what he thought of the
matter, he said it was no more than
one would naturally expect. after the
way in which thu coast towns of the
State have been clamoring to the gov
~ AAN'i Ibi i'IbtttlItU. II Furthermore, an
these coast towns have sent requests
to the senators and representatives
from Maine in Congress- asking them to
use all their influence in Securin,,
means for the protection of the coast
cities and towns of the State
The Maine delegation have since
been using every effort to that end.
and the apportioning Of three heavy
batteries, and the only ones that are to
work. Now whether these batteries
will be assigned to the home stations,
remains to lie seen.
OF course The people of the State will
not like the idea Of furnishing the three
batterics,so We'll as they would whole
regiment, or even two battalions. as in
the present case there will be a chance
for so few Of the officers Of the Nation
al Guard.
1t is too carly to ascertain who viii
make up the batteries. but it looks as
though the members of the End Regi-
mont would be the ones. Already
Major f. y. Robinson has rendered the
services Of the second battalion. and
doubtless the other majors will do the
same, as soon as they ascertain thu
desires of their commands.
There VIII IL either 45O or goo men
wanted, which depends upon the num-
Der specified in the instructions from
the var department. If it is 40 or 100
men to d battery, as Battery \ is made
up, it will TAX. about the exact num-
Der from the State as the quota fig
uras, with the 800 men that will be add
ed to the list Regiment through their
three recruiting stations.
In any case, though it would take
about all the men that there are in the
present 10 companies of the 2nd Regi-
mont, it would necessitate the turning
down of a larG" number of officers of
the present organization, and the men
would strcnuously object to this.
Should the three batteries be assigned
to stations in this State the adjutant
| general would make a great effort to
! have them formed as a battalion and
have a major placed in command oVcr
them.
But the possibilities can he better tola
after the instructions arrive from the
war department..
