which they ought to give to the public; for;

We have heard it intimated that as high as.

’be a necessity for so large an'outlay for

• LIEUTENANT-GENERAL GRANT. ,
Ever since the question of the appoint
ment of a Lieutenant-General has been
mentioned in the present Congress,- the
people have thought only of : Ulysses S.
Grant as the man for the post. The Presi
dent could not, if he would, have appointed
any one else; and we do not believe that he
would if he could. The Senate would have
confirmed no one else, and the people would
have been dissatisfied with any one else.
There is a feeling that-the office was created
for Grant, as a reward for the great services'
he has rendered to the nation. We are,
therefore, glad that -the appointment has
been made without any delay.
The law under which General Grant is
appointed does not make him commander
in-chief of the armies. It authorizes the
President to assign him to such command,
but wc have not heard that the President
has exercised this authority. We presume,
therefore, that, for the present, at least,
Lieutenant-General Grant will remain in
Tennessee. He has a great and important
work on hand, with grand strategic plans
not yet executed; and it would scarcely be
safe to leave these to another general just
at the beginning of a campaign. But, as
soon as it can be safely done, we should
like to have him at. Washington, exercising
supreme command as to all grand military
movements. The necessity of a wise and
experienced military man, who has planned
and executed great campaigns, and carried
on sieges and assaults victoriously, has
been long felt in our war administration.
With a man like Grant directing all the
campaigns, wc believe there would be a
grand plan grandly executed. There would
be no waste of our forces, no useless raids,
no deplorable sacrifices like that made
lately in Florida. The people will have re
newed hope of an early extinction of tho
rebellion, as soon as General Grant is made
the head of all our armies.
PHILADELPHIA AND THE DRAFT.
At the meeting of the delegates from the
ward exemption associations,last evening.it
was stated that the. following words have
filled their quotas of volunteers : Sixth,
Eighth, Twelfth, Thirteenth, Fourteenth,
Sixteenth, Twenty-first and Twenty-fourth.
In the Ninth,funds enough have been raised
and the ward will be exempt; the same may
be said of the Tenth and Eleventh. From
the First there vs'as no report, but we learn
that very energetic measures are afoot to fill
its quota; an advertisement in the liqfci.E
-tix recently,showed how it is expected to
raise the necessary funds.. Each person
contributing £25 is to be exempt, or if
drafted, is to receive his money back. The
Second, Third, and Fourth Wards had not
raised half their quotas at the last report.
There was no statement by any representa
tive of the Fifth Ward, though we know;
hat the parties having the matter in charge
in that region have been quite active in the
work. The Seventh Ward requires $12,000
more than has yet been raised, and we hope
to see “the old Seventh” come up to the
work manfully during the next fetf days-
From the Fifteenth Ward there was no re'
port, but very energetic measures are going
on there, as the readers of our ad vertise
ments are aware. The Seventeenth Ward
wants money badly ; not half its quota was
filled at the last return. The Eighteenth
Ward has a somewhat better look-out,
though it was stated that 135 men were
wanted at last-advices, and only $l,OOO
were on hand. About . half the quota
of the Nineteenth W ard has been
mustered in. In the Twentieth ward great
exertions-have been made; at last accounts
436 men bed been mustered in, and 218
more were wanted; subscriptions enough
have been raised. We have no report'from
the Twenty-second ward, but from the fact
that there is a large amount of wealth, and
a -hearty and zealous., public - spirit in that
section, it cannot be doubted that active
labor is.going on. From the extensive rural
territory of the Twenty-third ward, no
was furnished, hut it cannot he
doubted that our friends at Frankford and
.the regions round about are awake to their
own interests. The Twenty-fifth ward
does not know its quota ; 135 men have
been mustered in, and the parties in charge
of the bounty fund state that they want
money very badly, and cannot obtain it
withm the limits of the ward.
It will be understood that we take the
above facts . paray from the reports made
lasteyenmg, -There maybe errors in one
or two cases, but the main facts are correct.
We may add that in several of the Wards
reported “ full” the funds subscribed have
not all been paid in, and .the’committees
have been forced to borrow money on the
faith of the subscriptions made.’ It is to be
hoped, that every subscriber will see the
necessity of paying up promptly, so. as to
relieve the public-spirited. men' who have
assumed the responsibility for them. In
those Wards where the matter has-been
neglected, hut one working week remains,
and their citizens; must bestir themselves to
Bcriptign° St * hey woul< * eseape the con
!teß TSSTELLXSF TEE STATE HOUSE B3LL; 1
W yesterday issued an order that.
>wat«n.eet Trith}the approbation .of.every lover,
of quiet., Re directed that hereafter the State
House bell shall hot. be struck on the occasion' 1
fifes, except at such times as the ringing of
a general alarm wofld be requisite. In "the
days When the Fire Department was entirely a
volunteer association, and when there was no
Fire Alan? Telegraph in existence, there was a
necessity for striking the State House bell
whenever a fire broke out; but circumstances
alter cases. We have now a local magnetic
telegraph system in operation which ramifies in
every part of the city, and communicates di
rectly with every police station and with every,
or nearly every, engine and hose house in
Philadelphia. At all the steam fire-engine
houses there are certain men who are under p*y
and whose duty it is to be always on the alert*
They also have horses ready harnessed, and
upon the first click over the magnetic wire
they ore not only ready for a start, but in a
moment the them almost the
exact location of the conflagration. The
Station ponse bell-of the district in which the
fire fs burning is quite sufficient to give the
alarm to the firemen and citizens of the locality
and the striking of the State House bell, when
the fire is in Richmond; Kensington or West
Philadelphia, is about as wise as the conduct of
■ tho tipsy individual who at midnight clattered
away upon his neighbor’s door-knocker to arouse
his own wife who was asleep a square off.'
Every body knows the scenes of confusion
which invariably follow the striking of the
State House bell in daylight; men and boys
run belter skeitsr,- the streets are in an uproar
while the striking continues, business is inter
rupted, and the timid are alarmed, and all for
the purpose of conveying a bit of police infor
mation that has already been far better done by
the telegraph and the bell of the
district in which the fire is horning. At night
the entire city Is disturbed by tho doleful
sounds. It would not be thought very saga
cious in the general government to give notice
of a movement of Lee’s army by burning bea
cons upon all the hill-tops in the old English
style, or of sending on a requisition for a regi
ment of men by means of some fleet-footed
Malise, armed with a charred stick, while the
telegraph and the mails were doing the same
work a good deal better; The ringing of the
State Honse bell for every fire that occurs is
about as superfluous and as ridicnloos.
The Brixr.Trx has urged this reform ever
since the first introduction of the Fire Alarm
telegraph, and we are glaa that Mayor Henry
has determined to test practically the new sys
tem, and to give ns « a few brilliant flashes of
silence” upon the State Honse bell npen oc
casions ' of ordinary fires.

„ Tfce nntlsrsignec, members of the Executive
t.ommtr.ee of the GREAT CENTRAL FAIE fcr
tie ram,ary Com mission, beg to in yite the co-ope
t,.cn o. all their fellow-citizens, especially of
“r" T rPSident in Pennsylvania, Delaware and
- Jersey, in this important enterprise. It is
SS**? 1 »•“" *e Falr.ta Philadelphia; in the

; : a,< ? I!,e popular heart seeks only the
nm.ie cl manifesting that sympathy in the

’‘'l B ° 0n S’ s0 ’ 000 - and Cincinnati
.e ih.ii euo.nuo. We appeal, then, with the
i-ta.. >. ‘.onnri.-iice to the’ inhabitants of the Cen
tea, hu-er, especially to those who constitute the
r • ijidusirial classes, to send as contributions
m. productions of their skill and workmanship.
. » appeal to them in the interest or no pirty,
mdicHior conservative,Republican or Democratic;
AcnuiuMra.mii or anti-Administration. We know
.only this, that to send onr national soldiers iu the
?eki snpptie. to supplement those Goverment un
der akes to give them, but which they sometimes
fail 10 receive, and thus to relieve them when sick
at d in misery, is a work of Christian charity, and
that it is a work of intelligent patriotism also, as
economizing their life, health and efficiency, on
Wl.ith, under God, the nation depends in this its
timeot trouble.
- We therefore a F k every clergyman to announce
this humane undertaking to his people, and to ad
vise them to do what they can to further it. We
ask the press to give it the widest publicity and the
most earnest encouragement. We cgll on-every
workshop, factory and mill for a specimen of the
best thing it can turn oilt; on every artist, great
and small, for on» of his creations ; on ail loyal
women, for the exercise of their taste and indus
try ; on farmers, f»r the products of their fields
and dairies. The miner, the naturalist, the man
of science, the traveler, can each send something
that can at the very least be converted into a
blanket that will warm, and may save from death,
some one soldier whom government supplies have
failed to reach. Every one who cau produce any
thing that has money value as invited to girea
sample of his best work as an offering to the cause
of national unity. Every workingman, mechanic
or farmer, who can make a pair of shoes or raise a,
barrel of apples, is called on to contribute some
thing that can be turned into money, and again
from money into the means of economizing the
health and the life of our national soldiers.
Commirtees have been appointed In eaoTrrtepart
ment of industry ard art, whose business it will
be to solicit contributions for the Fair, each iu its
own special branch. These Committees will place
then-selves in comtnuniaation with those persons
who may wish to aid us. In the meantime it is
recommended, that local committees or associations
should be foimed in every portion of Pennsylva
nia, Delaware and New- Jersey, with a view of
organizing the industry of their respective neigh
boi hoods, so as to secure contributions-for the
Fair.
Committee, of Eadies have also been organised
to co operate with those of the gentlemen in soli
citing contributions.
A list cf all these Committees will be shortly
published and distributed. In the meantime those
who are disposed to aid ns, or who may desire any
further information on the subject, are requested
to address CH ARLES J.STILLE, Corresponding
Secretary . f the ExecutiTe Committee of the Great.
