THE GREAT SANITARY FAlß. —Preparations are going lorward vigorously for the great sanitary Fair to be held in Phila., in a few weeks. The tempo rary buildings are rapidly going up on Logan Square, the broad and extensive avenues of which will all be ocupied for this purpose. We notice one of the principal bridge-builders in the country on the ground, showing that every effort is to be made to provide safe, substantial and commodious accomodations. In order to give some idea of the extent of, the undertaeing, we would say that this groat Fair em braces eighty-one committees, each of whicli ap points sub-coiumiltees to more fully carry out the duties respectively assigned to them. One of the largest of these committee is the one on labor, in come and revenues. The duties of this committee, in a word, are to secure one day's "labor" or salary one day's "income "or one day's "revenue" from each person, not only in this Plate, but also in the States of New Jersey and Delaware. The names of some of the most prominent men in this and the adjoining States are on the Committee, and every interest is represented commercial and manufactu ring, as well as agricultural. All who wish to fa cilitate the work of this committee, and help to make this Fair a grand success, are refered to the advertisement. — American Presbyterian.' THE QCOT.VS OF BEDFORD COCKTY. —We publish this week a list of the quotas, credits ard} number of men yet to be furnished by Bedford county. The to tal number is six hundred and ninety-four. It is claimed however that our credit has not been given to several of the townships. The apparent deficien cy, may, therefore be considerably reduced. We see it stated in the papers that a draft has been ordered for the State of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Dela ware and we think Maryland.

Steele's army is there, and had, previous to its arrj ▼al, effected a junction with Gen. Thayer. Gen. Steele had completely ont-generxled "old Pap Price," who commands the rebel army in Arkansas, and after flanking him out of one position after another, finally started on a race with him for Camden, a place very strongly fortified ori the Washita River, and out-victor, entering the works unopposed by the enemy. The fortifications were found to con sist of ttino' fbrts, very strongly built, and capable oi rcereting a largely superior force. - ' r*g XOTMr. William Laahley of Elbiaanlle has taken out auctioneer, arid Sale license, and is ready to cry sales on short notice and reasonable terms.

April 23, 1864. j" To the Editor of the Bedford Inquirer. —Perhaps a few lines from thts part of the world would not come amiss, and may find a place in your valuable columns. As soldiers don't do much writing, you' must not expect much. We are still in our old cainp, as the weather has Wen too changeable to admit of opening the spring campaign; but from all appearan ces, it will open soon. Every preparation is going forward towards lhalnng vigorous efforts to crush this unholly rel*?llion Out, and it is the heartfelt wish of all true men to see this thing ended. It has lasted too long already ; it is now time to make the Rebels feel that it is useless to fight against the odds they will hove to contend with. One army never was stronger nor more eager to end this war than it is at this time, to prove this assertion I refer you to Bed ford county; aridsee thegreaternumber of enlistments of late than formerly: In fact throughout the whole north. We are glad to see that Bedford county has redeemed herself by sending so many in response to the last call. Many, whom we left affhome two years ago, have since followed our footsteps to the battle field, we welcome them with a soldier's welcome. It shows that the spirit that animated the hearts of our forefathers in 1776, is not yet extinguished in the bossoras of their sons : and where that spirit exists, the stars and strips must ever float. There is a terrible strruggle impending in Virginia, which must end in the death of the Southern Confederacy. This war will end in Virginia. As the rebels appear to be drawing there forces into the state, they will holdout until they see that Richmond must fall, which will take place before long. One thing sure, we will have to fight, and that hard too; but this army has already fought hard, which many bloody battle's fields will show many of us must fall, but patriotism calls fur the sacrifice. We are glad to know that we have so many friends yet at home who stand by us, in the noble cause that we are engaged in, but are sorry that wt fov.e number of enemiesthatwe seem to have at home that sympathise with the rebels, while we are here, risking our lives, for our country s sake. We like to War every person speak there sentiments out, if they are L nipn let them be I nion, if they arc the contrary let theai speak out plain; we would rat.Her meet an open an enfcmy than a secret foe. An > rent npm 7 more honor a secret foe, the lat tCT i >cks both moral and physical courage, and are beriekifc the i.'otice of a soldier and consequently we pass thmn by insjient contempt. We' think it pru dent tb bring an already letter toa close, fee Bedford bovs are all welt.

Late Richmond papers received here endeavor to j make light of the massaeip of colored soldiers at Fort I Pillow. The articles are written in a jesting vein.— | No excuse is offered to palliate the fearful offince against the laws of war, but the editorials are an at tempt to be witty and facetions over a horrible crime, which they evidently fear will lead to retaliation. — This is shown by threats slyly introduced as to what will be done when word is received that their troops receive a like fate. The Star says there w3s a rumor this morning that the colored troops, or a portion of them, attached to Burnside's command, had been attacked by guerrillas while doing gdard duty on the Orange and Alexandria railroad, and that a number of them were killed or wounded. After our inquiring we are satisfied this is not the oase. It is said, however, that yesterday morning while a detachment of colored troops were changing position they were attacked by a small party of guerrillas who suddenly pounced upon them, but the negroes drove them off without sustaining any loss. Parties from the army to-day report having heard heavy firing on our left early this morning. Major General Meade has issued another order relative to the men in the army who refuse to do duty on the ground that their time of service has expired, and statingthat the punishment for such conduct will be death.

For many years have I suffered fripii one of the most an noying and debilitating complaints that the fami ly can be afflicted with, Chronic Diarmea. , During the long time 1 was suffering from this disease, I was attended by regular physicians, giving me but tem porary relief.

I have had that disease in its most, oo*tinate form—flatulence—for many years, and your Bitters l\f giver, me ease when every thing else had failed. Yonrs-truiy, - JuLlC* Li From the Hon.

Gentlemen: In reply to yonr inquiry as to the effect produced by tho uso of Hoofland't; German Bitters, in my fumilv, I have no hesitaticn in saying that it has been highly beneficial. In one instance, a ease cf dyspepsia of thirteen years' standing, and which had become very dis-, trcssing, the use of one bottle gave decided relief, the sec ond affecting a cure, and the third, it seems, has,confirmed the cure, for there has been no symptoms of its return for. the last-six years. In my individual use of it 1 find it to be an unequalled tonic, and sincerely reeomtaena i( use to the sufferers. Truly yours, JACOB BROOM, •t • 1707 Spruce St. Rev. W. D.Scigfried.

Yor Hpofland'* German Bitters were recornqjended who had tried them, and whose favorable' inciitioil Of Bitters ir luced mc also t,o try tlieni. I must confess that I had au aversion to patent Medicines, from the "thousand nod one" qu.vA "Bitters" whose only aim seems'to be to palm, off sweetuned and drugged liquor upon the community, in n j-ly-jWay; and kite tendency of which, I fqar,, ,ii to make many a confirmed drunkard. Upon learning tpat yours waft really, a medicine preparation, I Aook it with happy effect. Its action wys not,upon only the stomach, but upon fbo neryous :vstein, was prompt and gratifying. I feel that l,haye derived great and permanent benefit from the use of a few bottle*. Very respectfully yours. Xo. 254 Shackamaxon St. From the Rev. Thos. Winter. I.
