Harrisburg, March 30.— The following is a mes sage of Governor Curtin sent to the Legislature in xeierence to the payment of the militia called out in September, 1862- To the Honorable, the House of Representatives.' Gentlemen—l received the following resolution Of the House on the 24th of March instant: ‘ * Resolved, That the Governor be requested to inform this House what has been done in relation to tbe payment of the militia that was called out on the llih ol September, 1562.” The subject of this resolution was properly as signed to the Adjutant General of the State. Great difficulties occurred in preparing proper vouchers for payments made to the militia called in service in September, 1662, under proclamation made by the Governor of this State. The men were called into service and were hurried forward to the bor der without the usual form of muster, and no rolls were made, at the time, of regiments or companies. The Adjutant General, m his annual report, says: ««Onjbesth of September last the Second Con troller of the Treasury approved a blank form of roll for payment of militia for 1802. These jolls have been sent to the captains of all companies who have applied for them and stated their post office address. They are now rapidly being re tuined to this department, and as soon as all are received, will be transmitted to the Pay Depart ment at Washington, when paymasters will be de tailed to the several counties from which these troops were furnished. ” Much correspondence has been had through the Adjutant-General, with the authorities at Wash ington, on this subject, since the date of the report of the Adjutant-General, and I am informed by Col. Francis Jordon military agent of the State at Washington, that on the 22d inst., an order was made on Major Brice, chief Paymaster at Balti more, to take charge of the payments, to estima r e the amount of fundsrequired, to report the number of Paymasters necessary, and make the payments at as early a day as practicable. Major Brice made a requisition on the Adjutant- General of Pennsylvania for the rolls, which were promptly furnished him by that officer. There is reason to believe that the militia called into service InSeptember, 1662, will now be promptlv paid • - A. G CURTIN. THE WISCONSIN UNION CONVENTION.

The Suppression op thb “Metropolitan' Record ” —The following is the order of General RosecTansfor the suppression of the Metropolitan Record newspaper. Headquarters, Department op the Mis souri, bT. ./Louis, Mo., March 26, 1864.—Special orders, No. 81.—-6 The attention of the General has been,called to various articles of. an incendiary, disloyal and traitorous character in a newspaper entitled the Metropolitan Record, without ecclesiastical sanction called ‘*a Catholic lamilv newspaper,” published in New York, March 26, 1661. The articles on “Consciiption, ” “The Raid upon Richmond,” “Clouds in the West, ” and * ‘The Address of the Legislature of Virginia-, ” contain enongh to satisfy the General command ing that no reasonable freedom, nor. even license of tbe press, suffice for the traitorous ut terances in those articles. They are a libel oa the Catholics, who, as a body, are loyal and national. No man having a drop of Catholic charity or patriotism in his heart could have written them, expressing, as they do- hatred for the nation’s efforts to resist its own dissolution, and friendship for those who sre trying to destroy the great free government under which so many have found an_ asylum from o pression in other lands. Th* Provost Marshall General will cause to be seized all numbers of the Metropolitan Record containing these articles, and venders of them, if found guilty of having sold or distributed them, knowing their traitorous contents, will b& puu isbed. To protect the innocent from imposition, the cir culation of this paper is prohibited in this depart ment until further orders. By command of,Major-General Rosecrans. O D. Greene, Asst. Adj. Gen.

W, CLARK & CO., rnhS-lmt 35 SOUTH THIRD ST THE GREAT CENTRAL FAIR, FOR THE Sanitary Commission, Philadelphia, 1307 Chestnut Street- February 20,1864. The undersigned, members of the Execntive Committee of the GREAT CENTRAL FAIR for the Sanitary Commission, beg to invite the co-ope ration of all their fellow-citizens, especially ot those resident In Pennsylvania, Delaware and New Jersey, in this important enterprise. It is proposed to hold the Fair in Philadelphia, In the FIRST WEEK IN JUNE NEXT, and it is con fidently expected that the contributions, coming from a pbpnla ion so benevolent and patriotic as that which inhabits the Central States, and repre senting the most important and varied branches cf Industry and art, will secure a result in aid ot the funds of the Commission, and for the benefit of the Soldier; at least equal to that which has at tended similar undertakings in other cities. It is not necessary to Eay a word to stimulate sym pathy for the soldier. We feel for them all 'as brethren, and the popnlar heart seeks only the best mode of manifesting that sympathy in the most efficient and practical way. These fairs in other places have been.producti ve of great results. By this means Chicago has recently raised for this object 300,000, Boston 3150,000, and Cincinnati more than 3200,000. We appeal, then, with the greatest confidence to the inhabitants of the Cen tral States, especially to those who constitute the great industrial classes, to send as contribution the productions of their skill and workmanship. We appeal to them in the interest of no pirty, radical or conservative, Republican or Democratic, Administration or anti-Adminlstration. We know only this, that to send onr national soldiers in the field supplies to supplement those Goverment un dertakes to give them, hut which they sometimes fail to receive, and thus to relieve them when 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 ot trouble. . We therefore ask 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 cell on every workshop, factory and mill for a specimen of the best thing it can turnout; on every artist, great and small, for one of his creations; on all loyal women, forth© exercise of their taste and indus try ; on farmers, for the products of theii fields and dairies. The miner, the naturalist, the man of science, the traveler, can each send scmething that can at the very least he 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 can produce any thing that has moiiey value is invited to give a 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. Committees have been appointed in each depart ment of industry ar?d art, whose business it will he to solicit contributions for the Fair, each in its own special branch, 'j hese Committees will place themselves in communia&tion with those persons who may wish to aid ns. In the meantime it is recommended; that local committees or associations should he forced in every portion of Pennsylva nia, Delaware and New Jersey, with a view of organizing the industry of their respective neigh borhoods, bo as to secure contributions, for the Fair. Committees of Ladies have also .been organized to co operate with those of* the gentlemen in soli citing contributions. A list of all these Committees will be shortly published and distributed. In the meantime those whp are disposed to aid us, or who may desire any farther information on the subject, 'are requested to address CHARLES J.
