CHICAGO CATTLE MARKET, Jan. s.—The total re
ceipts of Beef Cattle at all the yards for the week ending
today amount to I,'Ak4. This is tr.., head less than last
week, and LOMless than the corresponding week of last
year.
The decrease in the arrivals during the past week, and
the inferiority of the offerings, have materially decreased
the retinae of business usually transacted at this season
Of the year: In the early part of the week the transactions
were very light, Magmata's on account of Government
coati actors, who were purchasing sparingly, and only
when they coal I make their own terms. There is an
active demand for good shipping beeves, and offerings of
that class are quickly " gobbled up" at our quotations.
Medium grades are in fair request by Government con-
tractors and city butchers. while'scallawags are (Intl
and difficult of sale at any price. We give the closing
prices as follows •
Good shipping beeves 5t3.0003.50

MONEY AND STORES FOR TIER CITRISTIAN
COMIMEMOIV.—No sooner was the flows received of
the terrible conflict in Tennessee than the chairman
of
. the Christian Commission, George H. Stuart,
Esq., telegraphed to Louisville, and received, direct
from the military commander there, authority to
send delegates through to the field. Thirty-two men
were sent on; in four delegations, with tons of stores,
to minister to the wants of the wounded.
From Chicago, at the same time, another dele
gation was sent forward with railroad speed. All
parsed free over the railways, and went determined
to do all that man can do for the suffering , .
Thus, within three days from the close of that
hard-fought battle, more than. forty Christian men
were on hand, with large quantities of assorted sup
plies. to aid in every way the overtasked surgeons
in alleviating the wants of the suffering heroes.
Another delegation has gone to Vicksburg. Thirty
deputies were on the field after the repulse at Fre
dericksburg, and delegates, with stores, accompany
the Banks Expedition.
While the delegates receive no remuneration,
great expenses are incurred in the purchase of
stores, stimulants, clothing, and articles to meet all
wants of the suffering. They need more means!
A work so noble deserves the most unbounded
liberality at the hands of our people. We would
Rusin repeat that money may be sent to Joseph
Patterson, Esq., treasurer of Christian Commission,
Western Bank ; and stores to George H. Stuart, Esq.,
No. 13 Bank street.
NEW ATTRACTIONS AT OAKFORDS'.—
Messrs. Charles Onkford & Son, No. 834 and 836
Chestnut street, under the Continental Hotel, have
this distinctive peculiarity over all other business
establishments : That they daily add some new at
traction to their stock, all the year round. In la
dies' Furs they are now giving their customers
splendid bargains, and the same is true in all their
other departments.
SUPRRTOR BUORIVREAT FLOUR. The
"Silver Flint" Buckwheat Flour, for which Mr. C.
H. Mattson, (dealer in fine family groceries, Arch
and Tenth streets,) is sole agent in this city, is un
questionably the finest quality of Buckwheat pro
duced in this country, being far superior to the
"Bethlehem " and all other brands. Be sure and
ask for the "SitvEn PLIYT."
FESTIVAL.—A festival will be given this
evening, at the Sri/Isom-street Hall, the proceeds of
which will be applied to the extinguishing the debt
on the Second-street DI. E. Church, located at
Second and Norris streets, in the southern section
of the city. The church is involved in debt, and it
is hoped that the public will lend a generous aid.
The committee having the festival in charge have
provided an abundance of good things, which, to
gether with the large number that will be present,,
will render the occasion a highly interesting one.
ELEGANT COUNTRY RESIDENCE FOR SALE.
—We invite the attention of those desiring to pur
chase a handsome country residence to an advertise
ment of such a property, which will be found in our
columns today. It is only three miles from Borden
town, within easy access of the city, and in a healthy
and delightful country.
MILITARY FISTICUFFS.— MESSRS. Em-
Torts : I with surprise noticed an article in yester
day's edition under the above head, and as the arti
cle is not according to facts, or the alderman's
docket entry, therefore I am compelled to notice it,
especially as my character is studiously assailed,
and as at the proper time it will he shown that
other parties are interested in the above attack.
The facts of the assault are simplS, : on Monday
at noon, was at the' recruiting station, Allan in
conversation with Captain Zulick. This Lieutenant
Johnson came in, and, soon commenced to abuse
me. 1 not noticing him, he then walked to my side
and rent and struck me a violent blow in the face;
at the time I was still sitting in the chair with my
hands in my pockets. I, therefore, deemed it pru
dent to resort to legal proceedings for redress. In
said abuse no lie or provocation was given. The
cause of attack was merely the execution of a
threat made last winter at Frederick by reason of
a non-invitation to Col. .I%.l—'s entertainment to
the General Commanding.
Witnesses present to the above—Captain S. M.
Zullek ; Sergeants W. R. Buchanon, A. H. Cassel
berry, of the 20th.
lam further compelled to answer your studied
article. Three days after the battle at Front Royal
I arrived home, and unfortunately furnished a state
ment of said affair to a reporter of the Inquirer, who
trailed on me at my residence, which caused some
comment at the time, owing to the quickness army
arriving at home (three whole days).
When the said affair commenced I was confined to
m 4 bed, from an injury by my horse falling upon my
leg, but left it and mounted him again, taking part
until I lost him in the action; then, rather than to
remain and be captured, took a seat upon a caisson,
and there remained until taken a prisoner, and held
as such for over an hour, when an opportunity oc
curred for an escape upon one of their horses. I
was then followed for fourteen miles at midnight;
took shelter in a house; next morning they disco
vered me again, capturing the horse, but I got to
Winchester in a wagon. In the retreat the caissons
and cannon were in rear of column next to pursu
ing enemy, until ordered to the front by the colonel
commanding.
These are well-known facts. I not desiring a me
nial polition in the almehouse, or to gain political capi
tal, therefore preferred the risks of an escape to a
trip South.
On the 191 h of July General Pope furnished me
an honorable discharge, upon my application. On
the 25th General Williams handed me the discharge,
with the following recommendation for promotion:
HEADQUARTERS IST. DIVISION 20. CORPS,
An os. VIRGINIA, July 25, 1862.
Lieutenant Colonel Parham, late of 29th Pennsyl
vania volunteers, I believe to, be excellently well
instructed In the duties of a Field Officer, as well in
tactics as in other matters. 'Though I have had but
few opportunities of personally observing his quali
fications while his regiment was in my division, I
have no doubt that he is well qualified to command
a regiment. He was repeatedly placed in command
on detached duties of importance by the Major
General commanding. He was always zealous for
active and responsible employment, and, as far as
Came under iny observation, was always faithful to
duty. . A. S. WILLIAMS,
Brig. General Comiding Division.
HEADQUARTERS SECOND CORPS D'ARMEE,
26th July; 1863.
The remarks of General Williams receive my cor
dial approval. N. P. BANKS,
Major.Freneral Commanding.
Again : after I received the above, by reason of an
onler, it became necessary for an approval of the
Adjutant General, Thomas, before I could re-enter
the service, and which was readily granted, receiving
the approbation and an order of the Secretary of
•
War.
said documents in the possession of the Governor
Upon the above I rest my military character and
reputation, trusting to a discerning and honest
public.
Respectfully, your obedient servant,
CHAS. PARHAIII,
late Lieutenant Colonel 29th P. V.
THE GOVERNOR'S MESSAGE.--The annual
message of Governor Clurtin will be found in our
columns to-day. The message is eminently patriotic,
and the suggestions of the Executive respecting the
conduct of the war worthy the head of the good old
Commonwealth. His Excellency makes no allusion
to the elegant garments for gentlemen and youths,
made at the Brown Stone Clothing Hall of Rockhill
& Wilson, Nos. 603 and 605 Chestnut street, above
Sixth. The Governor, it is well known, always
speaks in the most eloquent toms upon this inte
resting theme ; but he probably considered an allu
sion to it in an official document out of place.
GARIBALDI AND HIS LADY FRIENDS.—It
Is said that English ladies in Southern Italy over
whelm Garibaldi with letters, in which they entreat
of him to sad them an autograph or stock of his
hair. Were their desires satisfied, it is said, the
General's head would be as bare as ;the palms of
their hands. An Englishman offered' $450 for the
bullet taken from the Liberator's foot, but could
not obtain it. This English gentleman has since
determined to console himself in his disappointment
by purchasing his new gotta front the mammoth
clothing establishment of Granville Stokes, No. 609
Chestnut street, Philadelphia."
