The United States Christian Commission has seined the present golden opportunity of rest for the Army to extend its work for the good of the Soldiers. STATIONS have been multiplied, each with its chapel ana store tents, free 'writing tables, and clothing, comforts and reading matter for gra tuitous distribution. VOLUNTARY DELEGATES,. in numbers grenter than ever before, have been sent to pre - aeh the Gospel at the stations and in regiments, bat. teries and camps without Chaplains, distribute reading matter and stores, and labor for the good of the Soldiers. A .PERMANENT FIELD AGENCY has been sufficiently extended to establish stations and superintend the work. --- - . THE BLESSING OF GOD rests signally on all parts of the work. • Many thousands have been cheered, benefited and saved. Still a large part of the Army remains tmreached, and double the number, both of Stations and delegates, are needed to meet the urgent demand for them. The Christian Llommission offers to the people a perfectly reliable and wonderfully economical channel to reach the entire army in all its various fields. The money given goes in fall measure, in benefits for body and soul, directly to the Soldiers; and stores also, immediately from the hands of delegates from home, who add words and deeds of kit dness to the gifts when bestowed. Let the people give the Money and Stores, and the work will be diari. The large corps of Delegates now in the field will serve as a grand corps of relief when the armies shall move and. battles be fought, and the greater their number the more prompt and effec tive will be the relief they shall render. Let not the present work languish. Wait not for the cry of the 'wounded and dying before pro viding relief.
