The young man shot in the leg in the Baltimore riot, and taken to the Infirmary, and attended by Dr. Morris, appeared quite grateful for the humane attentions shown him. When asked why he came, the simple reply of the youth, was, Oh, the flag — the stars and stripes. --Phila, Press, May 1.

Union Volunteer Refreshment — Saloon, Phila.--On the breaking out of the rebellion, and only a few days after the President's proclamation was issued, Pennsylvania troops began to arrive in our city on their way to the capital, and were detained for a short time at the Baltimore Depot, Broad and Pine streets, where they were liberally entertained by the citizens in that vicinity. Soon after this, troops from other States began to arrive in rapid succession at Washington-street wharf — many of them suffering from want of food. The citizens who lived in the neighborhood threw open their houses to them, while others procured what they could, and entertained them on the pavements — in this way causing a scarcity of provisions, and forcing many a poor man to go to his daily work without his accustomed meal. Mr. Bazilla S. Brown, seeing the willingness of all to contribute, felt the necessity of concentrating their efforts. He received as a donation from Savery & Co. a thirty-gallon b<

ffect that he has nothing further to offer. What he had to offer has just been quoted. General Howard, who, as has been mentioned, was not before the Committee, and to whom the circular of General Meade was not sent, still remains. To him also I addressed a letter at the same time, covering the points in General Doubleday's letter, and have received from him the following reply:— Headquarters Department of the Platte, Omaha, Neb., June 9, 1883. Colonel George Meade, 309 Walnut Street, Phila. my dear Sir: * * * * * * * * * I will set down the impressions left on my mind by the council during the night of the 2d of July. A question was submitted to us, substantially as to whether we should continue in the position then occupied by the army or withdraw to another. Your father stated to us clearly the existing condition of affairs, and General Butterfield, who was then chief-of-staff, read the question. It was quite freely discussed. One officer, a corps commander, said

story. We are thankful for the interest you manifest by sending new names. I shall write to Mr. Hurlbut at once, and to the others in a day or two. Those who have already promised to write are Mr. Carter (formerly of the Commonwealth), who will furnish a political article for each number, Mr. Hildreth (very much interested in the undertaking), Thos. W. Parsons, author of an excellent translation of Dante, Parke Godwin of the New York Evening Post, Mr. Ripley of the Tribune, Dr. Elder of Phila, H. D. Thoreau of Concord, Theodore Parker (my most valued friend), Edmund Quincy, James R. Lowell (from whom I have a most exquisite gem). Many to whom I have written have not replied as yet. I shall have the general supervision of the Magazine,intending to get the best aid from professed litterateurs in the several departments. We do expect to pay as much as Putnam — that is at the rate of three dollars for such pages as Putnam's, though it is probable that we shall use a trifle lar

as one man, that the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society has been shamefully calumniated by those who have seceded from our ranks. Everything will come out right, if we only put unshaken trust in God, and care not what evil-minded persons may say or do to us. J. C. Jackson writes on the same date as that of the above letter, to G. W. Benson (Ms.): 1st. We have secured the old depository for $550, and shall induct—probably—Isaac T. Hopper as publishing ag't. We have written to Boston and Phila. for books sufficient to open a depository. 2d. We shall start a paper as large as the Emancipator, and call it the American or National A. S. Standard (!), and shall have the execution polished and complete. It will shine nicely, and you sons of the fatherland must come up to its support nobly. Jackson was probably fresh from a conference with Mrs. Chapman, whose reminiscences concerning the founding of the National A. S. Standard are given in a letter of Jan. 11, 1881 (Ms.): My husban
