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.

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.

squalls from Ohio!

Dr. Franklin’s Opinion of Fuck.
THE astonishing success of JOS. GORkIELY
in the CLOTHING BUSINESS, excites the
surprise of some and the envy and jealousy of
others His unparalleled success some attribute
to one cause, and some to another. And some,
more envious than the rest, attribute it to.aniy cause
that best suits their purposes, no matterhowjunjust,
or how foul the misrepresentations. Again, there
is another class more easily satisfied, and .content
themselves by saying—“ Well, it is all luck-j-better
to be born lucky than rich. Born finder h lucky
planet,” &c, “ Pshaw says Dr. Franklin, Of luck,
all the luck I know of is in proper management.”
Precisely so, Dr., and just the operating cause in
the extensive business done at the great LANCAS
TER HALL OF FASHIONS. The only secret in
this large business, and the only reason that it is
large, is because he is careful in the selection of
good materials, and has all his goods well made—-
and then the fit of his garments cannot be surpassed;
and are sold at prices that defy competition. This
is the cause of his astonishing success at the great
LANCASTER HALL OF FASHIONS, N. Queen
St., Lancaster; next to J. Gish'& Co.’s Book Store
and the National House. [May 9, ’48,-tf-15.

Reinhardt’s Patent glass Pad Dou-
ble and Single Lever Truss,
For the support and cure of Rupture , or Hernia.
THIS TRUSS has the superiority of any hereto
fore in use, Ist, on account of its durability
arid cleanliness, the rupture pad being of glass, (in
any shape or form,) the adjustments of the springs
to suit the action of the body, and calculated to be
fitted to either side. The rupture pad has a double
motion; Ist, by revolving on its own axis; 2d, by
the lever to which it is attached, and where said
lever is connected to the main spring. The supe
riority which this Truss has over others is obvious
in this, that it is most effectual in retaining the
parts in their proper making due pres-,
sure it is always clean; its shape or form is du
rable, which in stuffed pads is nof the case, as they
become saturated with the fluids from the body.
The Umbilical truss is unsurpassed, being so
adapted as to remain perfectly secure where apj
plied.
Physicians and others are invited to call and.ex
amine this instrument. Numerous certificates
can be shown, from some of the most eminent of
the medical profession, recommending the instru
ment. For sale at ff JOHN F. LONG’S
