The Allentown SulTerer*. A meeting for the relief of .the sufferers by the Allentown Fire is advertised to be held in the Court House in this city, This Evening. We trust this initiatory step for holding, collections in this City and County may lead to'a successful effort in behalf of sufferers. The hearts of this commu nity have ever been attuned to responsive agreement with the calls of Benevolence, and will not wc arc sure, prove -fold and unconcerned in this instance. The extent of the calamity, and the pressing neces sities of the sufferers, may be realised to some ex tent from.-the. following Statement- Appeal to the Public. Fellow Citizens: —A dire calamity has befallen us; one which no human prudence could foresee, nor humaa power and energy avert. A fire, origi nating in an obscure corner of our town, driven onvirard by a strong and steady gale of wind, haa. swppt through the centre of our prosperous and bekutiful place, and left it a mass of blackened walls and smouldering ruins. From the height of prosperity, have all within its range been suddenly prostrated to comparative want and wretchedness —the labor of many years, in three short hours completely destroyed, while many, vervmany, have been stript of every thing except their trust in God, and their strong reliance on the benevolence of their less unfortunate fellow citizens at home and abroad. From the best estimates that have been made, we ascertain the actual loss to be an amount equal to one fonrtli of thp assessed value of all the real and personal property in our town, which contains nearly, four thousand inhabitants. To replace this we do not even hope—to restore the sufferers to the position which they occupied before this calam ity, we deem impracticable; but we do hope by the' aid of those who-can ‘‘’feel for other's woes'’ to lift from the ruins amidst which thev help less and almost hopeless, many of those who ha ve lost their all, and enable them to begin the world again with renewed confidence in God and their fellow man. To our fellow citizens we appeal for that assistance you can so easily afford, which will relieve so much suffering here, which our grate ful hearts will never forget, and which Heaven will not fail to reward. I Permit us to suggest to you to request the editors to accompany any notice they may lake of the fire, with this circular, and adopt such other measures as in your opinion will enable your fellow citizens most easily to remit to the proper officers oi our finance committee whatever they may feel disposed to contribute in aid of the sufferers. JOHN,' S. GiBONS, M. HANNUM, -= ft. E. WRIGHT, J. D. STILES, C. S. BUSH, : Committee on Address. From the Pittsburg Post. , The Pennsylvania Volunteer*. The Building Committee cf the National Wash ington Monument have extended an invitation to the Military of the several States of the Union to be present at the seat of Government on the 4th of July next, to take part in the ceremony of laying the corner stone of the Monument about to be erected there in honor of Washington. Thi* invi tation has been made to the Military of Pennsyl vania, through the Adjutant General, who, being away from home when the invitation reached him, and being thus unprepared to e.xtend to the several brigades, regiments and companies, a particular and formal invitation, as lie was anxious to.* do, avails himself of the use of our columns to make known to the whole Military of the State the wishes of the Committee. It is to be hoped that all editors throughout the State will copy this letter of Gen. Bowman, or at least call, the attention of their readers to it, at the earliest moment practicable: TIIE NATIONAL MONUMENT. PITTHHUIIU, June '). ISIS. - The Military of Pennsylvania, have been earnest ly, and respectfully invited to unite with the mili tary and citizens of Washington, in laying the corner-stone of the National Monument, on the Ith of July next; and i have been requested to com municate the fact to the Volunteers, which I do through the medium of the press as the most cer tain means of reaching nil. The Committee are very desirous that at least all the old thirteen States be represented by as full a body of military as may be practicable to join in paying this lasting tribute to the memory of Washington, and it is to be hoped, that Pennsylva nia will be well and handsomely represented in this patriotic manifestation of regard lor the memory of the beloved “ Father of his Country." Companies that can make it convenient to accept of the invitation thus given by the Committee of Arrangement, will please report to J. H. Bradley. Esq., at Washington, on or before the *2.3th day of June next, who will give any information that may be required touching the subject. , ‘ Very Respectfully. GEO. W. BOWMAN, Adjutant General, P. M. To the Military of Pennsylvania. Gen. Cass at Home. The following from the Detroit Free Press shows how the nomination of Gen. C'ass was received by his friends and neighbors, who have known him long and well: . Yesterday was a great time of congratulation among the democrats of our city. Every one you met.in passing through the streets, carried the ex pressions of his feelings in his countenance —a ra diant joy that sprung from the heart. At the cor ners of the streets, and on the walks, could be seen knots of persons eagerly listening and mingling their expressions of pride and joy at the result of the deliberations of the convention. The hearty, warm grasp of the hand was but an indication of the spontaneous warm feeling of the joy and gratifica tion within. It is a high and deserved compliment to the per sonal qualities and character of Gen. Cass, that here, at home, his nomination for the presidency is most cordially responded to, not otily.bv the entire democratic party, but that it meets with the ap probation of several of the most respectable mem bers of the other party, who announce their deter mination to support hint, as they believe him to be honest, capable and devoted to the best interests of the country. We can mention the names of dozens of our oldest citizens, usually voting with the whigs, but never wanting office, who have known Gen. Cass intimately and personally for nearly a score of years, who have already declared that they will vote for him, their attachments to his personal character, and gratitude for his public services out weighing their objections to his political principles. Let the little, unfledged whigglings of the hour who flutter around the Advertiser, and contribute their filth to its columns, continue their villification and abuse of Gen. Cass, and this class of personal supporters of him from the whig party will be vast ly increased. Beautiful Extract. The Boston Mercantile Journal selects the follow ing from the Foreign Review for April, 1539, as one of the finest passages in the whole range of English literature. The subject treated of is the benefit of printing: “When Tamerlane had finished building his pyramids of seventy thousand human skulls, and was seen standing at the gat® of Damascus, glitter ing with steel, withfhis battle axe on his shoulder, till fierce-hosts filed to new victories and carnage, that pale on-looker might have fancied that nature was in her death throes—for havoc and despair had taken possession of the earth, and the sun of man hood seemed setting in seas of blood. Yet it might be on that very gala day of Tamerlane, a little boy was playing nine-pins in the streets of Mentz, whose history was more important to them than twenty Tamerlanes! The Tartar Khan, with his shaggy demons of the wilderness, passed away like the whirlwind, to be forgotten forever and the German artisan has wrought a benefit, which is yet immeasurably expanding itself, and will continue to expand through all countries and all time. "What are the conquests and expeditions of the whole corporations of captains from Walter Penni mm to Napoleon Bonaparte, compared with the types of Johannes Faust.” I A Compliment. —Mrs. Adams, the widow of , the illustrious John Quincy, has presented Dr. Nes, . the member of Congress from the York District in this State,'with a ring containing some hair of the • deceased., This is a merited compliment, as Dr. I Nes was unceasing in his attentions to Mr. Adams, in his last illness. Taylor Whigs ! Look out, in a few days, for squalls from Ohio! Cam, Butler, and Pointer ! DEMOCRATIC RATIFICATION MEETING.
