The undersigned, ■ members of tn* E*<*cu-ive of the GREAT CENTRAL FAIR for the Sanitary Comtfflbsk , n, beg to invite ibneo-ope ration of all their fellow-citizens, especially of those resident in Pennsylvania, Delaware aud New Jersey, in this important enterprise. It is proposed to oold the Fair in Philadelphia, in tbs FIRST WEEK IN JUNE NEXT, and it is con iltientiv expected that the comributi ns . coming ■from a popula ion so benevolent and patriotic as that which inhabits the Central States, and repre senting the raos* important and varied branches of industry UDd art, will secure a result in aid ol the fnucs of the Commission.' and for the benefit of the Soldier, it least equal to that which has at tended sin ilar undertakings is other-cities. It is not necessary to say a word to stimulate sym pathy for the soiiier. We feel for them all as brethren, and the popular heart seeks «321 y the best mode of manifesting that sympathy in the most, efficient end practical way. These fairs In other places have been productive of great results. By this means Chicago hits* recently raised for this oe tv.t 5»uO,L*GO, Boston S’5u,UGO, and’ Cincinnati more tli n S*2oo,of;o. We appeal, then, with the gi* ai‘>st confidence to the inhabitants of the Cen tral States, especially to those who constitute the great industrial classes, to send as contribution the productions or their skili and workmanship. We appeal to them in the interest of no piny, radical or conservative, Republican or Administration or anu- Administration. We know only that to send our national soldiers in the field supplies to supplement those Goverment un dertakes to give them, but which they sometimes fail to receive, and thus to relieve tnem waen sick and 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 which, under God, the nation depends in this its time ol trouble. We therefore ask every, clergyman to announce thh. humane undertaking to his people, and to ad vise them to dc. what they can to further it; We ask the press to give it the widest publicity and the most earnest encouragement. We call on every workshop., factory and mill for a specimen of the best thing it can turn out: on every artist, great and small, for oise of his creations; on all loyal women, for the exercise of their taste and indus? t; y ; on fanners, for the. products of their fields m.O dairies. The miner, the naturalist, the man. ci science, the traveler, can each send something that can r-.t the very least be converted into a blanket that will warm, ana may save from death, some one soldier whom government supplies have failed to reach. Every one who can produce any thing that has money value is invited to give a sample of his best work as au tho cause of national unity. Every workingman, mechanic or fanner, who can make a pair of shoes or raise a baneiof apples, is called on to contribute some thing that can be turned in‘o money, and again, from money into the means of economizing the heaUh and the life of our national soldiers.'
