The undersigned, appointed as THE COMMIT
TEE OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT, to super
vise its interests in relation to the movement in aid
of the Great Central Fair for the Sanitary Commis
sion, to be held in June next, respectfully ask the
attention of the various Companies, and others
interested, to the following suggestions :
First—lt is proposed that tbe Fire Department
place their entire apparatus at the disposal of the
Chief Engineer, to afford protection to the Fair
Buildings against accidentfrom fire, the Chief En
gineer to detail each day the necessary number of
Companies to perform tbe duty required.
&coact—That the companies appoint Committees
to collect money and salable articles for the benefit
of the Fair, all articles thus collected Lobe labeled
with the names of , the donor and the company
through whose agency they were presented. If
Companies can influence contributions of a day's
labor to the Fire Department Fund, front any es-.
tablishment or individuals, there is nothing in the
rules governing the Fair to prohibit them from so
doing.
Third—To properly decorate the space to be al
lotted to the Fire .Department in the Fair Buildings,
that Companies place at the disposal of this Com
mittee their banners, flags, and other parapher
nalia, the Committee pledging themselvela to attend
to their proper distribution at the Fair, and their
safe return to the owners.
- -
Fourth—Officers of Companies are requested to
communicate, in writingwith the Chief .Engineer,
as to whether or not they intend to take part in the
movement. Time being limited, it is desirable
that, where action had not already been taken,
Companies call special meetings. and promptly
advise this Committee of the result.
Fifth—Should persons or associations not con
nected with the Fire Department desire to make
donations, either of money or articles the same can
be sent to either of the undersigned Committee, or
to any Company in the Department, or to the
office of the thief Fmoineer, either of whom will
give a proper receipt therefor.

The undersigned have been appointed to repre
sent the constituencies of the above Department in
the GREAT CENTRAL FAIR at Philadelphia,
which will excel alt preceding Fairs in the extent
of Its competitive displays of goods, and in the
timber of its prosperous visitors from the distri
buting and consuming classes.
They appeal to merehant , , to manufacturers, and
others, at home and ahroaa ,to send at once, to any
of the members of the Committee here named,sech
donations of MONEY ,or goods,as they shall deem
sellable; in add of the object of the Fair.
Tt eIV need he no fear that too much can be sent,
as the Trade stand ready to purchase front the Dr-
Partment ai,y excess of goods, while no guarantee
is needed for the humane employmtut of all the
funds entrusted to that noble Commission the re
sults of whose labors are so noteworthy that they
are carefully chronicled throughout the Christian
world.
Donations through this Committee will be drily
acknowledged in those leading American journals
most likely to be seen by the respective donors.
Due credit for the items and the aggregate will be
given in the records of the Fair, and it is ex
pected that the comparison with the achievements
of other interests will not be other than creditable
to [Lose represented by this Committee.
To the credit of the trade, dealers in the above
lines of goods should find no difficulty in arrang
ing for the transfer for the benefit [tithed own cle
pratment, of any engagements elsewhere, which
should, however, be henceforth avoided.
Ladies of this Committee will call for the good
will offerings of those citizens on whose humanity
they rely for tokens of remembrance for the brave
men who sacrifice health and limb to preserve the
property and lives of their neighbors at home. Let
contributors who are ready, notify any of the un
dersigned to call or send for their gifts.
Contributors who make individual and collect
ive donations to this cause are themselves, in ef
fect, good Samaritans at battle-field and hospital,
relieving our prostrate foesas well as succcoring
the gallant defenders. of our advanced civilization
who chance to suffer in the maintenance of the
welfare of the country. -

A PERMANENT FIELD AGENCY has been
sulEciently extended to establish stations and
superintend rise work. •
THE BLESSING OF GOD rests signally on all
parts of the work. litany thousands have been
cheered, benefited and sa.ved. Still a large part
of the Army remains lu/reached, and double the
number, both of stations and delegates, are needed
to meet the urgent demand for them.
The Chnstian tiommission 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 full measure, in
benefits for body and sotfi, directly to the Soldier 4
and stores also, immediately front the hands at
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 dons.
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.
Send now and send abundantly both money and.
stores, and the soldiers' blessing shall be upon
