The goofrwork of organizing and; reoruiting men waß conducted with zeal and enthu- ■ piaem. . ../ \ We learn that the national anniversary was ap propriately observed by the officers and workmen engaged in constructing the first of the city defences designated as Fort' No. 1, located in the Twenty- • first ward, which, it is understood, is to be mamed Fort Dana, in honor of the general in command. From 6 A. KT. until noon, a force of one hundred nnd thirty men patriotically labored upon the fortlfl- • •cation, with such vigor as to raise the work py that • hour to a height that makes it already a place of considerable strength. A'number of gentlemen re aiding in the neighborhood arrived shortly before moon, and at once volunteered to assist in the dig ; ging and wheeling, so that nearly one hundred and fifty men were at work at that time. A small brass cannon was then mounted upon the rampart, and a national salute of thirty five rounds was given, ma<: king the surrounding hills echo for the first time ; with the record of* the newly-admitted sister State of Western Virginia. A plentiful collation of„eata bles and drinkables was then enjpyed. beneath the shade of spreading treeß, upon the broad table covered with nature’s verdure-instead of linen. After the good things had been properly discuss ed, the Declaration of Independence was read by Piofessor John O. Creason, Chief Engineer of the City Gas Works, and an eloquent and stirring im promptu address was made by Frederick Fraley.Esq., who stated, among other , matters of historic in terest, that just fifty years before he had assisted in building fortifications to defend his native city againßtthe invasion of a foreign foe as he had this day done to protect It from the threatened raid of a rebel horde. After the conclusion of these ceremonies the work men again resumed their voluntary labors upon the defences, thus showiDgjhowjfreemen can deny them selves their wonted enjoyment of a full holiday, even on the sacred “Fourth,” when their country calls to other and more laborious duties. In addition to the workmen detailed from the Oity Gas Works, the force was yesterday Increased by a body of. men from the brickyards of the First ward,.under the leadership of their employer,* Mr. Benjamin Allen, who has set an example worthy of -all praise and imitation, by closing up his large es tablishment and leading to this duty thirty-five men of sturdy courage and strong muscle, whose services he continues to pay for without stopping to inquire who is to relmbuTße him for his sacrifice of time and mtmey for the public good.

Meeting in Behalf of the Christian Commission.— A meeting in behalf of the Christian Commission was held in the Church of the Epiphany, on Sunday evening. The arrangements had been made too late for any notice to be given through the papers, and yet the spacious edifice was crowded. It was a scene of deep interest, in connection with •Ahe thought that the soil of our own State was then soaking .with the blood of .the brave men for. whose Welfare that vast audience was so deeply concerned.* The delivered citizens, the peaceful worshippers, were there by the sacrifice or the thousands at that hour in agony or death upon the battle-field. Every heart seemed to have the scene presented to the eye, side-by-side with the imagination’s picture of that distant field ; and while the glad consciousness of ihe one pervaded the assembly with grateful, swelling emotionß, the thought of the other cast , a deep shade over that joy. TJndersuch circumstances the speakers could hardly haveffailed of eloquence. Dr. Newton presided, and addresses were made by Rev. Dr. Faires, who had followed the advance ot our militia, being with them during the shelling of Carlisle; Joseph Patterson, Esq., the treasurer of the Commission, whose, son lost his right hand in the first conflict, and was the first to receive the kindly attentions ot the Commission, whose interests his,father had .bo faithfully served; George H. jStuart, Eaq., and Colonel Bowman, who led the charge upon the Heights of St. Marye at the last battle of Fredericksburg. The addresses were all Sowerful and touching, Mr. Stuart’s thrilling.rela iOn of incidents in connection with the ministra tions of the delegates drawing tears from very many eyes. His statement of the enthusiasm and self-sacri ficing liberality of the "Western people Forthe objects of the Commission were of such a nature as to put to' blush the comparatively little concern and small exertions of our citizens.

FrIE IN THE EIEYENTH WARD—LOSS $5,000 —The fire alluded to in The Press of yesterday as raging at half-past three o’clock, was an old three story frame building, No. 167 Willow street, in the Eleventh ward. The structure was owned by Mrs. Caroline C. Haywold/ and was occupied by Messrs. Schutt & Seigel, manufacturers of sheep skin linings. The fire had made great progress be fore it was discovered, and before the firemen could get into service the whole building was enveloped. The structure was totally'destroyed, as well as its contents, consisting ofLfixtures, machinery, a large stock of sheep-skins, and about 200 pounds of wool. The building was partially insured. Messrs. Schutt & Seigel estimate their loss at $2,000, upon which there is no insurance. East of the factory and separated by an alley is a large double five-story brick building, owned by John W. Middleton. The flames communicated to this building through the windows on the alley, and the whole interior, from the fifth to the second story, was destroyed. The loss of Mr, Middleton will be from $1,500 to $2,000, and isfully insured. The build ing was formerly occupied by J, A. Buck, morocco manufacturer, but for the past year has been va cant. A frame structure in the rear of-the factory, owned by Mrs. Baywald, and occupied by John Kinkle, manufacturer of English kids, was slightly damaged. The stock was mostly-removed. A stable on the west side of the alley, belonging to Fred. Shober, occupied by Mr. Watson, flour dealer, was also slightly damaged. The rew: portion of the lager-beer saloon of An toine Henze also took fire, and sustained a trifling injury. 'The household effects suffered somewhat from water, y. . ' The total loss by the fire will be about $5,000, about one-half of which is covered by insurance. The origin, of the fire is not known, but is being, in vestigated by the Fire Marshal. A seriouß fire occurred in this neighborhood on the 19th of May last, and at 'that time we stated that a number of men disguised aB firemen had entered people’s houses and them. The same thing occurred at the fire Of yesterday morning. Some men wearing equipments got upon a shed in the rear of the house of Mr. Henze and while Mr v H. was en gaged in removing his wife, who was ill, the second story window, which‘/opened upon the shed, was broken open and a valuable gold watch and upwards of $10() in' money were'stolen from the front bed chamber. : _ A Mysterious Tragedy.— A mysterious tragedy occurred yesterday in the vicinity of Thir teenth street and Ridge avenue, by which one life waß sacrificed and another likely to be. There has been no legal investigation of the affair. The facts as developed unofficially are as follows: Mr. Hart man, a German, has a small carpet store and dwell ing on Ridge avenue, above Thirteenth Btreefc; Several months ago a young Prussian, named Jo seph Reiger, a cabinet maker, boarded at the house, and because of alleged, or supposed, familiarity with: Mrs. Hartman, the boarder was required to leave. Yesterday morning Mr. Hartman returned from a visit to HaTbor, and on entering the house, went up stairs and found his wife’s room fastened. He was informed by some one in the lower part of the house that Bhe had gone up there some time before, and also that Reiger had followed her. The husband finding the door locked, burst it open, tand to his horror, so' it is said, found his wife lying on the floor behind a chest; she was badly wounded, one ball having passed through her body, and the other effecting a lodgement therein. Reiger was also lying on the floor badly wounded. He was removed to the hos pital, where he died about seven o’clock last even ing. The husband says that Reiger acknowledged perpetrating the act. . The wife also told her hus band that Reiger had done it. ; This is all that we could learn about the case. Reiger had recently enlisted in the volunteer army. The pistol with which the deed was committed is in the possession of the police. ' The attention of Chief Franklin having been called to the case, he at once ordered the arrest of the husband. , The Wounded in the Field.— Mrs. Mary A. Brady, No. 135 South Fifth street, and Mrs. M. A. .Dobbins, No. 1801. Mt.

Hancock, commanding the 2d Army Corps of the Potomac, has arrived in this city, and is quartered at the.La Pierre Bouse. The General was wounded in the recent fight, while, like the^.lamented Rey nolds, gallantly defending the soil of his -native State. General Hancock has been in all the battles of the Army of the Potomac* &nd is a brave and fearless officer, and has won'for himself the admira tion of all our old veterans. Generals Hancock and Sickles were both wounded about the same rime, but it was through their united energy and determi nation that the rebels in their frightful charge were repulsed, and the victory of that day secured to our arms. Stabb&tg and Shooting Cases. — Two men, one named William Nugent, other name un known, got into an altercation on Sunday evening, about nine o’clock, at the Wheat Sheaf Tavern, Richmond street and Wheat Sheaf lane.

Jay Cooke, subscription agent, reports the sale of $600,000 in five-twenties yesterday, in all parts of the Union, mostly from the Western States. The decision of the Secretary,'continuing the popu lar agency through Jay Cooke fit Co., is hailed with pleasure throughout the country, and the more so because the arrangements for carrying into effect the national banking law have not been fully ma tured in some of the most important sections of the country. Large accessions to the permanent capi tal may be fully calculated on. The Provost. Guard.—Eleven hundred and twelve men left the headquarters of the provost guard during the last month.
