rys=. PENNSYLVANIA RELIEF ASSOOIA
LL§ TION FOR EAST TENNESSEE
President—Ex-Gov. JAMES POLLOCK. .
Treasurer-i-CALEB COPE.
Secretary—JOSEPH T. THOMAS.
This Association has for its object to relieve the
Enffi* rings ot the jiqople of East Tennessee, the only
poitipn of the Sonth which has preserved unshaken
its fidelity to the Flag of the United States.
When the qn* stion of secession was presented to
the people, iu February, 1861, East Tennessee gave
an overwhelming majority against it. In Sevier
county, ont of a voting population of 1,457, only
one vote was polled for secession. At this mo*
ment there are, in the Federal uniform, from the
county of Roane, more men in arms than there
were voters in i 860.;
The young men of East Tennessee are now fight
ing .for t/ieir country and our couutry. The old
men, women, and children, whether within the
Federal or the.rebel lines) 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
he willing to collect funds, are respectfully
requested to call upon the Secretary, No. ‘145
Sonth Filth street, and procure subscrip
tion books numbered and signed by the Secretary
No other subscription hooks are authorized by the
Association. /
Coniributions in blankets, clothing, -Ac., may
be sent to the undersigned.*

WESTERN ITEMS.
Generals Thomas and Schofield left for the
front yesterday. [
A negro who had snugly ensconced himself
in a seat with several whitii ladies at the Louis
ville Theatre night before last, was very un
ceremoniously ejected by the Provost Guard,
who confined .him over-night, and yesterday
morning delivered him to the police.
It is reported that a great many contraband
negroes escape to Indiana almost nightly in
small boats. The Contraband Commission are
collecting large numbers daily, and they are
forwarded at once to the Government railroad
worts. • •
Major-General Grant will remain in onr city
several days before leaving for the front.
Eight thousand deserters have been received
withili the lines of the Army of the. Cumbe
rland since General Thomas took command.
The Flag Ship Black Hawk of the Mississippi
Squadron, with Bear-Admiral David D. Porter
on board, arrived at New Albany yesterday
morning from Mound City, at which place she
has for some tfine past been undergoing re
pairs. Admiral Porter has come up on a special
tour of observation, and will remain with ns for
several days. The Black Hawk was converted
into a bag-ship from what was once known as
the New Uncle Sam, and is perhaps one of the
best models on the Western wharves. She
carries 15 pieces, of various calibre, and her
case-mating is impregpable. Two hundred
and thirty-four men comprise her crew.
By order of General Thomas, transportation
for passengers will not be furnished from Chat
tanooga to Knoxville until the railroad is com
pleted., There are no accommodations for
travellers at Chattanooga, and the boats going
to Loudon are used exclusively for army
supplies. —Louisville Journal, Feb. 2.
FROM 'WASHINGTON.
The Tribute correspondent writes as follows :
A gentleman connected with the Navy de
partment stated to-day that a Governmeik
contractor haa been tried recently at
instance of Secretary Welles, and sentenced to'
a year’s imprisonment and a fine of $5,000. It
is said that this gentleman is engaged in busi
ness of considerable importance, which requires
liis personal attention daily,, and that the
execution of the verdict will destroy his
of* living as well as character. This should be
a warning, to swindlers. f
Some mouths ago we stated, on tbe author
ity of an officer attached to the United States
steamer Tuscarora, now in European waters,
that Mr. Laird was solicited to sell his rams to
tbe British Government. The story has been
repeated since, with the assertion that the pro
position was refused. A ijaval officer, how
ever, has received a letter from a European
correspondent stating that the English Govern
ment and Mr. Laird differ only about the price
of the vessels, and that if the government give
the figure stated by him they can have the
cVaft, notwithstanding the statements to the
contrary recently .published by the British
newspapers.

of fhc N. Y.- Herald, j
Cru’Eri’Eß Court IlorsE, Va., Feb. 4, 1801.
—William Miller, ; Conipajhy F, New York
State Militia, one of the frain guards, fell from
tlic train to-dav as it was starting from Fairfax
Station, and, four cars passing over him, was
killed.
Nilfwithstaiiding themhd, deserters continno
to flock into the lines of each of the cavalry
divisions and the Second, Third and Sixth
corps. Nineteen deserters from Virginia, North
Carolina, Alabama and Mississippi regiments
came into General Gregg’s lines two days ago,
some of whom have been thirty days and others
two weeks and less in the mountains. They
report that the mountains are ftdl of deserters
striving to reach our lines, between which.
aDd themselves rebel cavalry are continually
scouring the country.
General-Governor William Smith, it is
known, has or had a home in Warrenton,
where Mrs. Smith now resides- His house is
in part occupied as the headquarters of General
Gregg, by whom the rebel governor’s property
is protected.
The ladies of Warrenton extend a very cor
dial welcome to our officers and soldiers, and
they are, therefore, quite frequently invited to
evening parties and other festivities. It annoys
the rebel .soldiers that Union sentiment is de
veloping itself in Warrenton, and they have
threatened] to drive our forces from there.

Sword and Flag Presentatioitt.—Yester
day afternoon, Company G, 183 d Regiment
P. Vi (Col. McLean’s) had a stree! parade,
under command of Capt. Joseph K. Smith.
The parade attracted much attention, from the
soldierly bearing of the men, most of whom
are veterans. About half-past three o’clock
the company arrived at SaDsom Street Hall,
where an excellent dinner was set out' by Mr.
Isaiah Bryan, the well-known host ot “Our
House/’ in Library street, to which the soldiers
and a number of invited guests did ample jus
tice. Previous to the dinner, a beautiful flag
was presented to the company by Wm. Hunter,
Esq., Chairman of a Committee of Coal Ope
rators, who have made very liberal and patriotic
exertions in raising volunteers. A beautifui
sword was then presented to Captain Smith,
the presentation; speech being made by Mr.
T. M. Coleman, apd Col. B. Brooker receiving
the weapon on behalf of the gallant captain.
We may remark that Captain Smith is truly a
veteran, having served in the three months
service; in the 81st P. V., through the Penin
sular campaigu, aud with one ol the Coal Regi
ments during the invasion of Pennsylvania.
He is a popular, brave and accomplished offi
cer, and will win new honors when he takes
the field as a captain in the 183 d Regiment.
Two very handsoqy: swords were also pre
sented to Ist Lieut. Geo. W. De Gour, and 2d
Lieut. Eyre Keyser. The swords were given
by the members of the company, and were
manufactured by Messrs. Geo. IV. Simons it
Brother. Their finish and beauty is worthy of
the fame of tlie Messrs. Simons. After the
good things bad been discussed, sentiments
were offered and eloquent speeches made by
Col. McLean, Mr. Hunter, Col. Brooker, Phill
pot Curran, Esq., and others, and the whole
aftair pasted off delightfully.
The 9Stu Regiment, P. V.—This veteran
regiment, commanded by Col. John F. Ballier,
arrived in this city yesterday afternoon and met
with a fine reception. At the depot, Mr. F. A.
Wolbert, chairman of the Committee of Coun
cils, in a neat speech, welcomed the regiment
back to the city, and the address was responded
to by the Colonel. A procession was then
formed, the escort consisting of a Committee of
City Councils, a Troop of Cavalry, the Henry
Guards, and several German Societies. Birg
fcld’s and the Liberty Cornet Bands were in the
line. The route published in the Bulletin
of yesterday, was‘gone over, aud along the
streets flags were flying and cheer after cheer
was given. Third street, from Callowhill to
Green,wa3 one mass of humau beings. As. the
regiment passed pistols were discharged,'and
skyrockets set oil'. Bonfires were at nearly
every corner of the streets. Military Hall was
handsomely decorated; small flags, representing
the dill'erent States iu the Union, were flung to
the breeze from the front windows of the build
ing. The hall was densely crowded with friends
and relatives of those in the regiment. The
men were mdrehed into the building where an
address was delivered by Wm. B. Maun, Esq.,
and ' responded to by Col. Ballier. The
men were then dismissed. The regiment
returns with 330 re-enlisted men ; some ninety,
who have not re-enlisted, are still with the

The Lottebt Dealers Again. Before
Alderman Beitler yesterday alteruoou. there
was another hearing in the case of the alleged
lottery dealers. Casper Whitman, the prose

Iwe been made to give the regiment an appro
priate reception. The Henry Guards and other
organizations will participate. The Bth was
first organized as mounted riflemen by Col. E.
E. ChoraiaD, but was subsequently changed to
cavalry, and served under Colonel, now Gen
eral, Gregg. The regiment has re-enlisted for
flie war, and comes home on furlough to re
cruit.
Parl6r<Cq3Sfrt.— Anc4her of those plea
sant Parlor Soirees, that have lately become
so popular, was given last evening, at the re
sidence ot a well-known merchailt, on West
Green street. The entertainment, being under
ihe auspices of the w ife of tlie gentleman, and
having lor its object the relief the suffering
f amilies of our soldiers, could not fail of being
a decided success, as it proved to be. The
/tm.sic, both vocal and instrumental,-was of a
high order, add elicited the warmest praise.
Special favor was accorded to a Grand Duo
front Lucrezia Borgia,for piano and violoncello
executed by those eminent artists, Messrs
Wolisohn and Ahrend; “Rocked in the Cradle
of the Deep),” by a lady amateur; and a Duo
from Semiramide, were sung exquisitely. The
Linule, from “Atella,” by an Amateur Sep
tette Association, was rendered in a style'
rarely excelled. Apart front the praiseworthy
object, which brought so large an assembly to
gether, all had reason to be satisfied with their
evening’s entertainment.
Return of Veterns—Second Pennsyl
vania Cavalry. —The re-enlisted veterans of
the 2d. Pennsylvania Cavalry, under command
of Lieut.-Col. Brenton, arrived in this city
during last tight, aud will immediately 'com
mence the work of recruiting. This regiment,
though for a long time in actioni has, daring
the last six months shared in a greater number
of engagements than any other in the army of
the Potomac. In most of the numerous
cavalry encounters, since the battle of Gettys
burg, it has taken a conspicuous part, and its
reputation is now second to none in the cavalry
corps. Philadelphia may feel justly pround of
having officered, and sent this organization to
the field, and it is to he hoped that the recruit
ing offices which we understand Col. Brinton
is about to open, may be thronged with appli
cants lor admission to its honored ranks.
