The committee would remark for the information
of the Philadelphia public, who have, enabled this
committee to more than redeem its pledge to the
VVar Department, (“to defray extraordinary ex
penses attending recruiting of three colored reg
iments for ihe war, ’ ’) that the movement has been
one of marked success, and the recruiting the most
economical that has been accomplished daring "the
.war. The expense of recruiting the 54th-and 5.5 th
Massachusetts colored regiments, was over 530,U00
per regiment, but after careful consideration of the
.whole subject the Supervisory Committee thought
•t c °uM raise the three regiments promised the
War Department at SI O,OOO per regiment. It has
S?A le S ted -'t'l,(above mentioned) and on the
20th day of June, 1663, sentthellrstsquadof eighty
men to Camp William Penn.
On tb*24th July, 1853, the First (3d U. S. ) regi
ment was mil. “
On the 13th Sept. ISS3, the Second (6 th U.S.) re
giment was fall. ; '
On tbegih lee. 1863, the Third (Bth U.S.) regl
lmtnt was full, “
On the* 6th Jan., 1864, the Fourth (22dU.S )
regiment was full.
On the 3d Feh.. 1564, the Fifth (25th U.S.) regi
ment lacks bnt a few of being full
August 13th, 1863, the 3d U. S. regiment left
Camp William Penn, and was in front of Fort
Wagner when it surrendered. -
Oct 14th, 1863, the 6th U. S. regiment left for
Yorktown.
Jan. 16th, 1864, the Sth U. S. regiment left for
Hilton Head. i.
The 22d and 25th regiments are now at Gamp
Wm. Penn, waltisg orders from the Government.
Thus the Committee hare raised five regiments
with the fond estimated as necessary to organize
three. It has also recently opened aTree Military
School at Its headquarters, 1210 Chestnut Street,

Committed having ne “exhausted the
funds entrusted to it, and believing its power to
recruit colored troops economically is by no means
at an end, has.asked and received permission from
the War Department tor continue its work. It
therefore solicits from citizens, and from the
Banks, Insurance Companies, Bailroad Compa
nies ard other public institutions renewed aid. *
- The Committee feels confident that it is only
necessary to call public attention to this matter to
insure its fnll accomplishment.

PENNSYLVANIA RELIEF ASSOGIA
LL3 TION FOR EAST TENNESSEE
President—Ex-Gov. JAMES POLLOCK.

Secretary—JOSEPH T. THOMAS.
This Association has for its object to relieve the
sufferings ot the people of East Tennessee, the only
portion of the South which has preserved unshaken
its fidelity to the Flag of the United States.
When the question pf secession was presented to
the people, in February, 1861, East Tennessee gave
a majority against it. In Sevier county, out of a
voting population of 1, 457, only one vote was
polled for secession. At this moment there are,
in the Federal uniform, from the county of Roane,
more men in arms than there were voters in iB6O.
The young men of East Tennessee are now fight
ing for t} K eir country and cur country. The old
men, .women, and children, whether wi\hin the
Federal or the rebelling, are naked, destitute,and
almost starving,the contending armies having four
times passed over their unhappy country, leaving
devastation in their track.
Members of the Committee, and others, who may
be willing to collect funds, are respectfully
requested to call upon the Secretary, No. 215
South Fifth street, and procure subscrip
tion, books numbered and signed by the Secretary.
No other subscription books-are authorized by the
Association.
J . Contributions .in blankets, clothing, &c. ., may
he sent to the undersigned.

The Dagtladtt says that “Denmark cannot
comply with the ultimatum of" Austria - and
Prussia. .Whatever may happen depends upon
eventualities in Europe and Germany. In case
of a war the German armies will require four
weeks to collect the necessary strength, arid by
that time the Danish army will be larger than
ever, and with its fortified works, will be able
to hold in.check an enemy twice as strong.”

Rebvctios or Ward Bounties About two
months since, when, there was every appear
ance of a draft being necessary to till the quota
of the city; meetings were held in
IVards, ami it was agreed to offer a bOuafyltT
addition to tbafCßfiered by the city. There was
jftTßniformity about the matter,however. Some
Wards offered $lOO, others $75, and the re
mjpuijer $5O. Competition was, therefore,
very great, and, of course, those who offered
the largest bounty obtained the greatest num
ber of men. In some of the Wards, occupied
pincipally by the working classes, but small
amounts of money could be collected, and
thus but very few men could bo had. In other
Wards the action taken was very hasty, and it
was soon found that too large a sum had been
offered—in fact more than was warranted by
the collections. Many men have . left the city
without receiving any of the Ward bounty
promised them. As matters stand
it was considered that injustice was being done
to the poorer'Wards, and two meetings of re
presentatives from the Ward Bounty Fund
Committees have been held. The proceedings
of last evening will be found on the inside of
to-day’s Bulletin. During the discussions
which occurred at the meetings, it seemed to be
the general impression that there was more dif
ficulty in getting money than ever, and last
week it was recommended that the bounty in
each ward should be $5O. The call'of Febru
ary Ist for troops, throws an additional burden
upon the wardp, and at the meeting last evening
it was argued that men from the country were
attracted here by the large city bounty, aad
cared nothing ilbout the Ward bounty. A pro
position to dispense with the Ward bounty al
together was- very strongly&urged by Col. Win.
Bradford, Wtu. D. Leins’, Esq. and others.
The proposition was finally rejected, and it
was agreed ihaCtli'e ward bounties should be
reduced to $25, on or after the 4th instant.
Church Home for Cuilurkx The eighth
anniversary of this institution was celebrated
yesterday. The children were reported to be
in an exceedingly-healthy condition, and during
the past eight years not a death has occurred in
the Home. There are now fifty children under
the care of the Managers. The treasury is in a
good condition, having a balance on hand at the
present date. The wants of the children, during
the present year, will require, however, the
liberal contributions of the benevolent. The
Home is entirely out of debt, the remaining in
debtedness on the building having been can
celed since last report. During the year, the
improvement of the children in their studies
has been a source of gratification to the Mana
gers. The following persons were elected
officers: „

of the U. S. Christian Commission. The solos
and concerted pieces will be sustained by. the
first professional .and amateur talent in the

only two or three gentlemen, present, other than
the officiating clergymen. Bt. Kev. Bishop
Wood performed the ceremony.
Bounty Meeting —the citizens of the Third
Ward held a meeting at Jefferson Hall last
evening to encourage volunteering. Addresses
were delivered by Theodore Cuyler, A. B.
Sloanaker, Dr. Heritage, Capt. Lehman, and
others. Block Committees were appointed,
and other arrangements made to obtain the
quota for the ward without a resort to the draft.
About seven hundred dollars were Contributed
on the spot in furtherance of the object; of the
meeting.
First Ward.— An effort is now being made
in the First Ward to supply the volunteers
needed to save the Ward from the draft, and it
is entitled to the earnest aid of every citizen of
that section of the city. We believe the quota
of tlio Ward is about eight hundred men. With
proper etiort the bounty money may be raised,
and the men secured. It is easier to get the
men than the money, and every citizen who
desires to be free from the annovance occa
sioned by the draft should hand in his sub
scription without delay.

The Chestnut.— This evening “The Ticket.o f-

extiaordinary popularity of this new play is such
that, although it was given at the Walnut and the
Arch for several weeks, yet the desire to see Ik
continues unabated, and Mr. Grover has only
yielded to : the universal demand that he should
present it, with a powerful caist and with new and
Sdendid scenery. M. Pearson will enact Robert ■
rnriy, and from his reputation in Lancashire
parts, won in other cities, we have no doubt but
that he will charm all who witness bis persona
tion. The castalso comprises the names of Messrs.
Mordaunt, Prior, Andrews, Donaldson and Len
nox, with Miss Gimber and Miss Denim We
doubt not that the play will attract as large audi
ences at the Chestnut as ft has already done at the
Arch and Walnut.
Trb Walnut “East Lynne” still continues
to crowd the Walnut to overflowing. It will be
given to-night.
