V. 42# 46# 36# 39 40 wtxp. wuro WNW../WNW...NNW ENE ENE ENE Bbadjng Matter for the Army.— Hie great demand of the soldiers just now Is for reading matter. Letters are being received at the office of the Christian Commission, by every mail, containing large orders from various parts of the army, for various kinds of reading. A remarkable /eatere of these orders la the demand for religious reading. An order from the Western Army call* for twenty-five thousand Testaments, and religious newspapers, and what is known as “knapssok books,” .in proportion. The St. Loui» branch of the Christian Commission, ssks for fifty libraries to supply TJ. S. gunboatsoo the Mississippi river. The Christian Commission is now ordering a large supply of religious papers, of various denomina- OonmlMiou w*u?d >»!’»>’ to double it, luppiy of matter for tire army, but can only do .0 ao &a it is sustained by the contributions of a senezous and intelligent public. The soldiers com posing our army are men who, at home, were accus tomed to enjoy their books and newspapers, secular and religious, and to be cut off from them, while in the army, must be a privation keenly felt. The fa cilities enjoyed by the Christian Commission enable them to send reading matter and stores to the army, almost free of charge, while their numerous dele gates, who give their services free, distribute the much-prized book or newspaper from tent to tent, to the mental! Y-huogry men. Reckless Conduct.— Between seven and eight o’clock yesterday morning, a country wagon, well filled with farm produce, was over turned and broken, and the contents destroyed, by a collision on the Seccnd and Third-streets Railroad. The accident happened on Second street, below Green. It seems the wagon was on tbe track, and about turning out to let the car pass. The wagon not moving fast enough, and the oar going too fast, the former was struck by the latter and completely overturned. The contents, consisting of butter, eggs, and other produce, were thrown into the muddy street, and in a moment were made worth less. The farmer was thrown out and eaoaped, but not without injury. The collision earned the re gular travel on the street to be interrupted lor tome time. The company, of course, will have to pay the expense, as the farmer gave timely notice that he would resort to the law. Corn Bread. —There was received at the headquarters of Mr. George H. Stuart, presi dent Of the Chiistian Commission, on Tuesday, one ration of corn bread as a specimen given the union Srisonerg at Belle Isle and in the Libby-prison ospltal. It was forwarded to this city from An napolis, Md.) by the agent of the Commission, the Rev- J. O. Sloan, who had received It from ar& turned priioner. The ration is 4# inches long, 2 i-is Wide, and 2 inches thick. It was considered a 48-hour ration in the hospital and 24 hour ration on Belle Isle. These chunks of corn bread are thrown in a pile among the prisoners. To treat the rebel prisoners as the rebels treat ours would be even handed justice, but instead of that they not only get the necessaries of life, but have even received luxuries. Soldiers’ Fair at Concert Hall.— Last Monday was opened a Fair, at Concert Hall, which will be col eluded on Saturday evening, for the benefit and relief of sick and wounded colored soldiers. It is under excellent management, which, With its admirable because thoroughly humane pur pose* will commend it to the favor of all Who eiteflm Dravery, who sympathize with suffering, and who honor patriotism. Many of our leading citizens take an interest in and have liberally contributed to it, and we are sure that the public at large will be flad to visit it, and make purchases, the object sing one which all must highly approve and en dorse. __ The Tonawanda. — The double-turreted United States steamer Tonawanda weighs twenty* three hundred tons.

Officer Adams has in his care two little children, brother and sister, respectively aged five and six years. The Northern Home for Friendless Children will receive these arrangers to day. The history of this case it one of many affecting illustrations of the misery produced by the hell-engendered rebel lion. These little ones formerly lived with their grandfather in Richmond, Va. He was wealthy, and owned an extensive saw-mill. The children were nursed in the lap of luxury. Less than a year since the mother was compelled to come North, to escape the tyranny of the oppressor. She brought her two children. She was furnished with funds, such as could be obtained, to support herself with, until her father should arrive. He was expected to follow in a short time, but in the attempt was seized by the rebel government and made to work his mill for their use. The money whloh the unfortunate. woman had ran out in the course of time, and shs became destitute. Her disappointment crushed her spirits, and finally a rapid consumption set in. A lew benevolent ladies becoming acquainted with the elreumsUnces of the oue, provided for her wants; did eveiything to cheer her; enlivened her hopes, bnt only, however, to be blasted again by the sad reality that her father was still absent. It was thought, at lest, that it would be better to send her to the Pennsylvania Hospital. The lamp of her life is flickering m the socket. Her existence on earth may be reduced to hours* The children, having no one to propeiiy care lor them, were placed into the keeping of Officer Adams, who will find them room to-day, probably, in the Northern Home. Theourae of the dying mother upon Jeff Davis will have to be met by him at a tribunal from which the first rebel was hurled into endless perdition. The prayers or infant lips will be heard, *zid the arch rebel, the tyrant traitor, will tremble. The Bebel Oath-Tskers. we yesterday gave the facts in the case of the three * rebel oath-takers,” who, after having been b y Mr * E.

Factories for the making of firearms have been destroyed, others have been fired in a most mysterious manner, bat the fiamet being timely dis covered were speedily suppressed* It is a pretty well established fact that m some of the places de* strayed, or fired, there were employed one or more " repentant rebels.** Of course, no body saw them fire any of the places, but when such work is recom mended In the public journals, printed with the ®f JeS Davis, it may be thought at least tte did the work of incendiarism.

Thus fell a young man who led a life of crime, and whose body fills an ig nominious grave. [Before Mr. Alderman Jones, j Disorderly Hon me.
