MESSAGE OF GOVERNOR CURTIN.
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

„ FROM WASHINGTON.
WASHINGTON, March 30—A Oikculab This
*opy of a letter addressed to a gentleman holding
-an office in this Department, is sent to others for
information:
■ Tebabcby Department, January 23, 18G1
Bib:—four note reminding me of letters from
highly respected gentlemen m favor of your pro
motion, is received. -
It Is hardly necessary t& say to a gentleman of
sour intelligence that requests for promotion of
Clerks In this Department trom gentlemen outside
of it, who cannot possibly be informed as to rela
tive duties and merits, and other circumstances
which should control action in such matters, mu«t
necessarily rather hurt than help the object of
those who obtain and present them.

. 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.

FOR THE

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. STILLE, Corresponding
