How otjb Sick and Wounded are
CASED the recent bloody battles before
Biohmond the number of sick and wounded in our
midst has become so great that the Government, though
doing all it can, nmßt necessarily depend upon .private
enterprise for asßlslance. .Our city, lias already dona
much, but when almost every family in it has some rela
tive or friend lying pick and wounded an appeal ef this
kind Cflunot pass by unnoticed. Next to the success. of
our armies la the field, there is no subject in which the
whole community should feel so much interest as in the
welfare of the sick and wounded soldiers, who have sa
crificed health and risked life and limb in the National
cause { who cast themselves, maimed, scat-rod, feeble
and prostrated, upc-n the sympathies of those whose gra
titude and care it is their right to claim.
There are nowin the various hospitals of this city alone
hundreds of poor fellows who, a few short months, or, it
may be, weeks ego, left thoir homes, sound and stalwart,
hopeful and reliant, to do battle for the flag under which
they were born, or to which they owed allegiance. They
come back to us diseased, mutilated, overwrought in
mind and body, donumllng from all in whoso power it
may be to aid them every attention that time, thought,
and money, can bestow. Much has bcen-done to amelio
rate the condition of the sufferers. The State and muni
cipal authorities are vieing with each other iu efforts to
secure and fit up amiable places for their reception, in ap
propriating. needful funds for the maintenance of those
places, and the provision of overy convtnience and comfort
that can poßiiblybe wanted. The highest medical talent is
freely volunteered; private benevolencecomoßto the help,
of-private endeavor; and, to a great oxtent, the duty
that is owed to,our country’s bravely-nnfortunate de
fenders is generously fulfilled. Much, though, even yob
remains for the charUabio and kind-hearted to do. The
fltld is wide, the harvest, sadly plenteous; and for the
work that bos to be porformed, the laborers are still too
few. Thousands of pf onto solace themselvos in selfish
luxury, without a ihougbt of what is imperatively re
tihired of them iu a'crista like the present. Their indiffe
rence, let it be hoped, is more the wazt of thought, than*
criminal neglect. But there are very many who forget
the call, which, on behalf of the country, is hourly made.
upon them. It is not to bo expected that they will all
turn nurse* or transform their houses into hospitals,but
with sympathy and money, and the various means they
have at their disposal, they can accomplish a great deal
of good, and that at very little cost of trouble or personal
annoyance. It is tltiir duty, as far as they can, to lighten
the labors of those who, in a purer spirit of eelf-sacri*
flee, devote their whole energies and resources lo the
Cause; their duty to see that energies and resources thus
devoted aro net cramped for lack of bountiful means.
. Henry W» Bellows, Saq., president of the National Sa
nitary .Commission, at Washington, has published a cir
cular, addressed to Hon. Horace Binnoy, president of the
branch society ;at Philadelphia, calling urgently for aid
for the sick and woundea soldiers. Mr. Bellows says:
“This is the crisis and culiniuatlon of the labors of the
Sanitary Committee—-tlio proper transportation and care
of the victims of the terrible battles, and the more terri
ble camp pestiloico of the next three months I’* He asks
for Philadelphia to furnish $5,000 per month for the next
three months—Now York he thinks will furnish double
that amount, and Boston will more than equal it
Mr. Blimey suggests that the middle-aged business
tnen take up the work of collecting foT the united States
Sanitary Commission. The immense number of the
wounded, which may be ; looked for every day from the
Virginia army, calls for tho most active efforts to pro
vide for them. Coniiot eome plan like that suggested bje
Sir. Bellows be established In Philadelphia 1 Will some of
our. prominitit cUteors take hold of the matter? The
president adds: “If I teem exacting now, do me the
Justice to remember that I am pleading in behalf of hu
inanity, and of your own soldiers.”
Becertly ueaily all the benevolent institutions and
homes have fitted up apartments iu their buildings for
the accommodation of the sick and wounded in case of
emergency. Some of these institutions are so small as to
he able to accqmiriodate onlytwenly or thirty patients,
yet what they can do Is done willingly. The House of
Industry, at Seventh and Catharine streets, and numer
ous other places of the same kind are filled up with the
pick and wpurded. Oj the two hundred and fifty-one
“that arrived. at.Yinc-stieet wharf on Thursday evening,..
about seventy of the fever patients were taken to tho.
American Mechanics’ Hall, at Foarth and George streets,
which has lutcly beea fitted up for a hospital. Many of
the citizens and all tho fire companies in the northern
sar£ of the city, were on hand at the wnarf with their
iiorßca and wagons, and conveyed the soldiers to the
dxall, where they received the utmost care and attention
from the lady. members of the committee, who have bsen
entiring in their energies for the past two weeks to pro
•cure the necessary articles of aid and comfort for the
poor volunteers.
When toe futiher necessary arrangements are com
pleted, the bailding will! accommodate about two hun
dred, and we can guarantee they will be cared for in the
best possible manner. There seems to be a rivalry
among our citizens us to who shall care for this de
serving class.; It matters not whether the soldier be
longs to this city nr State, no difference where ho comes
from, he reeeives’the same welcome and is looked to with
the same attention.
The.present unhappy struggle has brought with it
Pome compensation, at least, in developing an amount of
patriotism, self-denial,'and devotion to the country and
its brave defenders that would not be thought credible
if not brought home to every one by every day experi
ence, God bless"the ladies! How they have toiled to
render the wounded and sick soldiers comfortable; how
they have denied themselves delicacies that the feverish,
appetites of the sufftroi s in our hospitals should be satis
fied J In every good work they have sprung forward
nobly, and tho assistance rendered b> them will never be
fully appreciated., as it has beerfdone in secret and with
out parade. The spirit has been spread to the children,
and, as usual, they u\nt into the woYk of procuring ar
ticles for the sick and.wounded with a zeal and perse
verance known only to youth. Fairs, sma’l ones, it Is
true, but none tba les» attractive, have been the medium
through which syttematic aid bas been gecored. These
fairs are well vorth visiting, as presenting evidences of
BUoh good lasts and such a fine appreciation of the beau
tiful, in the harmony of colors and the deposition of ar
ticles* that would put to sham© persons of older growth.
The sums collec ed by these fairs are: not insignificant,
and many a .poor soldier’s head has re-ted easier from 1
toe presence of luxuries the resuitof social gatherings.
One of the latest and neatest of these fairs is to be held
on Wednesday next, at No. 1020 Spring Garden straot.
The proceeds are for the sick and wonnded at- tho hos
pital Twenty-second and Wood streets. The committee
of young ladies'consists of Mary Neff, J, Ches. Lae.
Annie Calvary, Annie Neff. Kate Crowell, and Mary
Bruastar, Tin so young ladies have for weeks been de
voting their energies towards making the fair one that
will refioct credit upon themseheras well as ecctmng
funds. Already sl* worih of tickets, at 3 coats a piece,
Lave been collected. Pretfy well, that, for children.
The sum of $314.75 has been forwarded to the ladies
of this city by residents of Cheater for the use of the
hospitals.
The Bekry Homicioe—Tlie trial of
this case waa.reaumtd on Saturday byfora Jndges Allison
and Thompson. From the evidence elicited on Satur
day, it aeema that Sir. Berry, without any expression on
his part, was Beset end beaten about the, head and
kicked until he was Tendered insensible. He was carried
home, wluro hedhd five days afterwards. The testimony
by the Commonwealth in this case,was directed towards
fixing the identity of the persons who attacked as the de
fendants. The two a o Identified by n number of wit
nesses as actively engaged in tho attack, but, for the
most part* the witnesses identify George. A number of
them, however,ldentify William as a participant. All
the witnesses, with the exception of one, who identify .
George Forepaugh as one of the men.engaged in kicking
and boating Berry, describe hia drefi3 as that of light
pants and Kossuth hat. He waa’ia his sbittsleeves.
Two witnesses heard One of the Forepaugh?, as he passed
from the ececo of ihe coLlticr, declare, {l We have killed
the—!'* . *
Officer Franks, who did not see tho fight, but who saw
George Forepaugh and Tic&maa running away,described.
George's dress as dark pants and dark Kossuth hat, and
About this he was particular.
From the testimony it appears that there was a general
fight, in which whoever came to assist Mr Berry was
knocked down and beaten, and only saved themselves
from sharing his fatal tni bv getting out of the way.
% Ho witness represented Mr. Berry as offering any re
sistance to the attack, or doing anything to provoke his
fate.
Willl&ffi'Efiher sworn.—t can . identify George Fore
jpaugh; he knocked Mr. Berry down; after ho bad done
this, he lifted up Mr. Barry's head, looked at it, thsn
dropped it, and vs all ed off.
At this stage of the proceedings (two o’clock), the
court took a recess fin til.three o’clock. On reassembling,
the following naratd witerseos wore, called and examined
on the part of tho Commonwealth; Anne Wilson, Atpbonzo
Len&ire, and Joseph Maun,- Their, evidence was simply
a repetition' of. tbait a’ready given, all having witnessed
the fight, and all idt-nuiying the prisoners as actors in it.
The Commonwealth re&tid.its case here, and Charles
W. Brooke, Esq , open/d for the defence. He referred
to the fact that all llei. itnesses • for the Commonwealth,
except Mr. Franks/ bad testified that George Forepaugh
had on light pants and a light Kossuth hat at the time of
tbemurder. Mr. Franks had. sworn positively that he
had on dark clothes. Too defence would prove that on
the day of the murder George Forepaugh had on dark
clothes, and that ho invariably dressed in dark clothing.
Mr. Brooke also said tool they would prove by the ad
mission of tho other defendants, that George Forepaugh
did not make tho a< tauk upon Berry. Aa regards Wm.
Forepaugh, evidence would be brought to show that dur
ing the attach on Hr Berry, he stood at a distance, and
took no pari In it whatever.
Fight witnesses were then called for the defence. The
Sunt and substance of their testimony was that George
Forepaugh was in the invariable habit of wearing dark
clothes. Adam Forepaugh, the brother of tho defend
ants, swore that he gate ail his own cast-os’ clothing to
George, and that they were always dark, Hone of
these vriineßHca were present during the affray, but one
gwore that be saw George about that time, and that his
clothing was dark.
Hone of tbe witue-seß for the defence made any alia-
Mon to tho countctloii of Williafc Forepaugh with the
case..
At six o'clock in Urn evening the court adjourned
Until 10 o'clock ihteinorning, and Judge Allison cau
tioned the jury ngrinsi conversing with any other person

having the term of enlistment made for one year. The
Scott Legion, which has a rendezvous In Chestnut street, •
below Sixth, has at present about three hundred men
mustered in. Accessions are being made daily. The
regiment did not commence to recruit until Monday last,

A Tribute to Ericsson.—
• Eric of old,
The Viking bold,
Swept o’er the sea all uncontrolled ;
Now we the Viking’s fame have won,
And rule the seas through Eric’s son.
Ericsson, who made the Monitor j Dahlgren, who made
the cannon; Jenny Lind, who made music; Frederica
Bremer, who made domestic fiction that 13 read in thou
sands of American homes, and . Hans Christian Powers,
tbo celebrated cuttor at Charles Stokes’one-price Cloth
ing Store, under the Continental, are Swedes.
. Oi.d An® in the Presi
dent has been paying a visit to the army of General Mc-
Clellan, on the James river. The letter writers in that
classic locality describe the appearance of the rail-split-,
ter, and tell about his wearing a stove-pipe beaver. But
by some strange omission they entirely omit to make any
mention of the fact that he also wore a becoming cult
from the Brown Stone Clothing Hall of Bockhill &
Wilson, Nob. 603 and 605 Chestnut street, above Sixth,
nud where official and citizen, soldier and civilian, adult:
and youth* procure the most elegant and comfortable
seasonable gnrmentß. -
How to get Notes Changed.—-EverybodY
Is suffering great inconvenience from the scarcity of
small change. Storekeepers begin to feel the trouble of
finding change for dollar notes when small sales are
made by them. They receive but little silver, and have
either to buy it to make change, or to refuse to make
sales to those who do not furnish ready money, or to trust
them for what they obtain. Those having notes for - a
large amount can have them readily changed for any
quantity of eummerclothing at the palatial establishment
of Granville Stokes, No. 606 Chestnut street, Philadel
phia. This is worth knowing.

SPECIAL NOTICES.
Bb. D. Jayne’s Alteeatiye.— lt is
an established fact that , a very large class, of diseases
•on only be cured by such medicines as will enter into
the blood and circulates with it through every portion
of the body, for only by thia means can tho remedy be
brought into immediate contact with the disewei: To
obtain this deairable end, no preparation has ever been
go uniformly‘successful as Dr. D. JAYNE’S ALTE
RATIVE.

DROPSY, EPILEPSY, &c.
cancerous 'Tumors, White Swellings, Gouii Liver
Complaint, Dyspepsia; ULCEns, Scald. Head, Btc ,
.iTO ,
Have cured by this ALTERATIVE, It
is, besides, one of tho most pleasant articles that can.be
taken into the stomach, operating as a tonic, and re
moving Dyspeptic and Nervous affectkms. Ithasbeea
found particularly beneficial in
OAHCER AND OAHOEROUS AFFECTIONS of all
kinds, coring a majority of the eases in which it has been
used, andofttimes after the failure of other remedies.
GOITRE OB SWELLED NECK.—In innumerable
cases of this disease, in which Jayne’s Alterative has been
peTseveringly used,-!! has never been known to fail. All
baye been cured who have continued ita üße according to
directions. ;• '
DROPSY AND DROPSICAL SWELLINGS.-Many
physicians, who hare used the Alterative in disewea of
ibis nature, consider this a spe&cic, so great has been its
success. It acts by i&creasing the powers of digestion,
exciting the absorbents into healthy exercise, whereby
the watery or' calcareous depositions and all unnatural
enlargements are reduced.
EPILEPSY, FITS, CONVULSIONS* are usually
considered incurable, and yet experience, has proved
that the Alterative,- in conjunction with the Sanative
PiUs, wiU cure a majority of cases ; it sbould.be tried,
therefore, by all who are . subject to these terrible af
flictions. '"'a
SCROFULA.—In all theforinsof this disease, whether
in that of Ulcerations of the Flesh or Bones, Enlargement
cf ihe Joints, Glands, Swellings, Eruptions, Tumors, etc,
the Alterative has :been fonnd pre-eminently saocessful.
It enters into, and circulates with, the blood, thus de
stroying the virns or poisonous principle from which
these diseases originate. .
SKIN DISEASES, of ail kinds, Scald Head, Tetter,
Salt Bfceum* Bing Worm, Boils, Pimples, Blotches,
Roughness cf the Skin, etc, are readily cured by the
Alterative.
; RHEUMATISM AND NEURALGIA;—Ia chronio
rases, this Alterative, if perßeveringly used,' Is generally
successful. In Acute Rheumatism, Jayne’s Liniment
should be supplied in connection, according to directions.
FEMALE COMPLAINTS.—Itt many affections pe
culiar to females, especially when arriving at maturity,
or at the 41 change of life,” the Alterative is unsurpassad
by any other remedy. In Cholorosis or Retention, Ir
regularity and Leucorrhcca, the best results have always
followed its administration. .
i COMPLICATED AND MIXED DISEASES, NER
VOUS AFFECTIONS, DISEASES OF THE HEART,
DYSPEPSIA, LIVER COMPLAINT, Constitutional
Diseases, and diseases originating from a depraved or
imperfect state of the Blood, are ail cured by Jayne’s
Alleraiiye; and.while It Is a fault in many medfeines
that, when they are removing the disease they are alio
prostrating the patient beyond.recovery, the Alterative
hns no snch drawback. While neutralizing the virus Of
disease at its very source, it sustains tho strength of the
snff. rer. The: union of Disinfectant Tonic, and De~
obstruent properties in this medicine, and the fact that
allthese influences are blenfed harmoniously in its ope
rations, distinguishing fit from all other similar pre
parations. Let the afflicted give it a trial. : ’

Saratoga, Jnly 1, 1882.
An attempt baa been made to deoeive the public by
persons, offering what they call;« Congress Water”
from fountains, and at the price of six (6) cents per glass.
Tbo utfioZcsaie price of the genuine Congress Water, at
New York, being about 7# cents per glass, the imposi
tion of pretending to sell at retail at less than cost, and
witbont allowance for freight, cartage, or breakage, is
apparent; but their probable course has been to empty
one bottle of genuine Congress Water into a fountain
filled with their trash, and thereby christening ita total
contents.
We have never sold Congress Water in tountains, nor
