emigrants who would come over to this country
had they means to pay their passage. He recom
mends that twenty-five thousand dollars be ap
propriated, to be advanced as passage money, and
that said passage money be a hen upon their labor
upon arrival here. The Committee will hold a
session le-morrow morning to consider the project,
and-will no doubt report a bill to meet the case.
The House Committee on Public Lands will re
port a bill, next Saturday, setting apart all con

The following paragraph appears in recent
number of the London Globe:
"We hve reason to believe that on accepting the
crown. of Mexico the Emperor Maximilian will ad
dress from Miramar a formal notification of his ac
cession to the throne, to all the Princes and Powers
with which he desires establish diplomatic rela
tions, amongst the ntrmber the United States of
America,Mr. Dayton, the American Minister in
Paris, having already intimated the readiness of
his government to accredit a represesentative to
Mexico, and to receive a minister from the Empe
ror of Mexico."
There is every reason to believe that Mr. Dayton
has given no intimdtion of the character thus re
ferred to, End that his government has not author
ized him to give any such.
The Navajo Indians of New Mexico, having re
cently surrendered to the United Statesi forces, the
proper s.uthorities have asked Congress for an ap
propriation of 6100. 000, with which to procure
them agricultural implements and subsistence un
trl can support themselves on the reservations
set apart for their colonization. The Navajos have
Nen at war for nearly two hundred years, and the
peaceful plan now proposed is deemed more eco
nomical than the large war expenditure heretofore
incurred in New Mexico. They number about
7,000 souls.
Robert Beall, of this city, formerly Sergeant-at-
Pains of the Senate, was to-day confirmed by that

TESTIMONIALS
Mies Shaw's Readings have been the subject of
high encomiums, as will be perceived by the fol
lowing Testimonials from those most qualified to
judge, T./2.f
From Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes, Boston.
Miss Shaw has much grace and dignity, a very
sweet, sympathetic voice, a fine enunciation, and,
to my ear, an almost faultless pronunciation. I
forma so little to criticise, that I feared I must be
wantiqg in the eye which detects faults.
From Bey. Jno. Weiss, Watertbwn.
Miss Shaw possesses power enough for imitating
the popular exaggerations of some famous readers,
but too much sense and simplicity to give it that
direction. She is inspired with the desire to re
main natural in tone, gesture, and expression,
while she preserves every dramatic or tender ele
ment of the author. There is no lack of energy
and passion which Shakepeare or Browning re
quires; but the feeling of the page is delicately
shaded, and the true grace of woman clothes the
whole.
Mite Shaw has been kindly permitted to refer to
the following gentlemen :
Hon. Salmon P. ()hue, Secretary of the
eaEury.
Eon. Wm. A. Buckingham, Governor of

THE DAILY EVENING lIIILLETIN PHILADELPHIA. WEDNESDV, APPIL 6, 1864
CENTRAL FAIR,
Philadelphia; 1307 Chestnut Street
The undersigned, members of the Executive
Committee of the GREAT CENTRAL FAIR for
the Sanitary Commission, beg to invite the co-ope
ration of all their fellow-citizens, especially of
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 TUNE NEXT, and it is con
fidently expected that the contributions. coming
from a popula ion so benevolent and patriotic as
that which inhabits the Central States, and repre
senting the most important and varied branches of
industry and art, will secure a result in aid of the
funds of the Commission, and for the benefit of
the Soldier, at least equal to that which has at
tended similar undsrtakings In other cities. It
is not necessary to say a word to stimulate sym
pathy for the solfier. We feel for them all !as
brethren, and the popular heart seeks only the
best mode of manifesting that syinpathy in the
most efficient slid practical way. These fairs in
other places have been productive of great results.
By this means Chicago has . recently raised for this
object ESO,OOd, Boston 3150,000, and Cincinnati
more thra 32(X), 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 party,
radical or conservative, Republican or Democratic,
Administration or anti-Administration. We know
only this, 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 them when sick
and in misery, is a work of Christian charity, said
that it is a work of intelligent patriotism also, as
economizing their life, health and efficiency, on
which, tinder God, the nation depends in this its
time of trouble.
We therefore ask every clergyman to announce
this hiumane 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 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 one of his creations ; on all loyal
women, for the exercise of their taste and indus
try ; on farmers, for 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 can produce any
thing that has money 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 and art, whose business it will
be to solicit contributions for the Fair, each in
own special branch. 'I hese Committees will place
themselves in communisation with those persons
who'may wish to aid us. In the meantime it le
recommended thatlocal committees or associations
should be formed in every portion of Pennsylva.
nia, Delaware and .New Jersey, with's view of
organizing the Industry of their respective neigh-
borhoods, so 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
who are disposed to aid us, or who may desireany
further information on the subject, are requested
to address CHARLES J. STILLE, Corresponding
Secretary f the Executive Committee of the Great
Central Fair, 13u7 CHESTNUT Street.
