The following appeared In a portion or our edition
of yesterday, and as It does‘not seem to bare reach
ed mad; readera.who take an interest In the sub
ject; we reprint It for their benefit:
Provost Marshal General Fry has Written a letter
to the Gpvornor’pf {Minnesota, In whioh he explains
In dhtsfi how the j quotas of the several districts
throughout the ) oonntr; are fixed; and other matters
of Importance at ttds time. "We give to our readers
the following condensation, which includes all the
point*: J . * ■' v . : ‘.
The call or the Presldenffor 600,000 men, dated
July 18th, 1884; vjaa Intended to brtngintothe held

’ / Thlslong and.intrl(jeto sentence appears to mean
that a' Sfttelct JUnjtthlEg men,,for three
years’* Service Is plabefi on an equality with a dls
trlot furnishing of %<XQ men forgone year’s service.
This he asserts In an Illustration, and . shows
that his theory Is legal by an extract from the law
regulating quotas, whioh Is to the effeot that quotas
shall he assigned “anting the districts of the seve
ral Stateß, considering and allowing for the num
bers already furnished as.aloresald, and the time of
their service." In assigning a quota under a call to
make up deficienoles.the deficiency of year’s ser
vlce.as well os the defljrfenCleß In number, are to be
estimated, and the quotas varied accordingly. This
rule Is always obeyed by the Government. It
takes the responsibility, and even If a soldier does
-.not serve his full term, or as General Fry puts It: -
“ A soldier who enlists tor three years, and dies or
1b discharged at twelve months, Is credi
ted to Ms sub-dtttrletij&s a three-years man; and
a man who enlists for one year, and is discharged
in a week alter enlistment, Is credited as a one-year
man: The amount of Credit to be given Is depen
dent upon the perlod'for which-the soldier enters
the service.” v y,
This letter, In conclusion, says- that the .rule In
applying credits la that, tbey should he deducted
from the quota of the call, that produoed them. All
men ratted since the call of July* 18, 1861, are
credited upon the quota l under that call; If the
quota is more than filled, it ttoarrled as excess to
the credit of the locality; and taken Into aooount
in the assignment of the quota under the call of Dee
cember 19,1884, and provqsf marshals are Instructed
that in determining the quotas of sub-districts under
the presen t call they will apply such excess accord
ingly; and all men raised- since December 19th are,
of course, credited upon the Call of that date. In
.crediting the excess that tt.earrledforward from the
call of July 18,1884, and, .applied to the call of De
cemher 19,1864, he considetanoh only the numher of
men of wMch the exoesais composed, bat also, as
Shown above,.the. period of their service; and the
quotas assigned under'the Call of December- 19ttfare
. thus, reduoed by this* exosss of, service, and henoe
they should not be further reduced, except by en
listments subseqnent to Djqember.lfl, 1864, the date
of the call lor three hundred thousand men.

A COURT MABTIAL OBDBBBD.
The New Yorkpapers of yesterday contain ac
counts of the arrest; of four of the gang of Incen
diaries who endeavored to fire that city. The
World says: !
Eyer since the memorahle attempt to destroy
this city by sotting fire to the different hotels, and
which happily proved bo futile, Major General D]z,
commanding this department, and Superintendent
Kennedy, of the Metropolitan Follco, have been
diligently and secretly at work endeavoring through
their subordinates to ferret ont, and bring to justice,
the conspirators and actors In the dlabolloal plot.
So seoret have been the workings of the military and
police authorities that the public began to complain
that no efforts were being-made by those in autho
rity to discover the criminals. Yet by reason of
this strict secrecy, andthe judicious blending of the
military-end police pother, the efforts of the detec
tives employed have , been crowned with partial
success.
We may now state, upon reliable authority, that
four very Important arrests have bßen made so far,
and others are expected In a few days. The first,
and probably most Important, is the notorious Cap
tain Bell, the leader in the raid On Lake Erie. The
name by which he was known at the' time of Ms
arrest was Baker. He Is a man of education;
halls ftom the neighborhood of Richmond, Vir
ginia, and holds a commission as captain In the
Confederate seryioe, and ls one of the most able of
the rebel officers who make their 'headquarters In
Canada. He was arrested-near Suspension Bridge,
with a companion, who ls also said to be in the Con
federate service. They had jnst come from Buffalo,
and had with them a carpet-hag with several
candles. The arrest Of. these was madeafew days
subsequent to the time when information was re
ceived at the headquarters of the Department of
the East, that anattempt was to bemaao to destroy
the city of Buffalo by fire, by a party of incendia
ries ftom Toronto, O.W. It Is said that both th,se
prisoners will be treated as spies. They are at pre
sent confined In Sort Lafayette.
The third one arrested Is also saldtobe -ln the
rebel service, and Is oommonly known as Stanton.
His’ real name Is known to the authorities, but they
do not deem it prudential at the present time to di
vulge It. About ten days ago he was taken into
custody near Detroit, having just crossed the line
from Sarnia; He has been Identified as one or those
connected with the Incendiary plot In this city, and
will be.trled by court-martial as a spy. The fourth
arrest Is also of a oaptain In the Confederate army,
who was found lying perdu In a small village on the
Hudson. The -working up of the plan to seonre the
arrest of these parties was In charge of Chief John
S.Young, of the detective foroe of this city, who,
with several of the police and military detectives,
have been :Ibr weeks past hovering on the border
line between the United Stateß and Oanada,ex-.
tending from Lewiston,-New York, to Port Hu
ron, Michigan, making frequent inourslons .Into
British territory In pursuit of the' inoendlarles. It
has been satisfactorily ascertained that the number
of persons engaged in the incendiary plot aid not
exceed Seven, and that one of those arrested set fire
to-Barnum’s Museum and one of the hotels, and
another of the conspirators to two of the hotels.
Major General Dlx has ordered a general oonrt
martlal to assemble and try those now under arrest
as the violators of the laws of War; The court com
prises the Jbllowing officers:
- Brigadier General Pits Henry Warren, United
States Army. Jr '
Brigadier General WM. H. Morris, Unites States
Volunteers.
Colonel M; S. Howe, 3d United States Cavalry, i

City Point, Ya., Deo. 22,1864.
if. H. Hunter, D, Tahnadqc, John T. Brasee:
Dbar Sirs: I have just this moment received.
your printed letter In relation to your proposed
movement In acknowledgment of one of Ohio’s
greatest sons. I wrote only yesterday to my father,'
who resides Is Oovlngton, Ky., on the same subject,
and askedhimto Inaugurate asubscrlptlon to pre
sent Mrs. Sherman with a house In the city of Oln
olnnatl. Gen. Shermanis eminently entitled to ttds
mark of consideration, and I directed my father to
head the snbserlptlon with five hundred dollars for
me, and half that'amount from Gen. Ingalls, chief
quartermaster of this army, who is equally alive
with myself to the eminent services of Gen. Sher
man.
Whatever direction this enterprise in favor of
General Sherman may take, yon may set me down
for the amount named. I cannot say a word too
highly in praise of General Sherman’s gervlaes'from
the beginning of the rebellion to tbe present day,
and will, therefore, abstain from flattery „or him.
Suffice it to say, the worhPs history gives no record of
his superiors, and tut few equate,
I am truly glad for the movement you have set on
foot, and of the opportunity of adding my mite in
testimony of so good and great a man. ,
Yours truly, . , u, S. Grant,
Lieutenant General.
The suggestion of Gen. Grant that Mrs. Sherman
should be presented with a home In this city Is re
ceived with favor by those-who have Interested
themselves in tbe movement, and It Is llkelytobe
Carried Into effect. .
Secretary Seward and Lord Wharnclifle
BBBBZ, COMMENTS OK ME. SEWARD'S LKTTKB—
esglahu ahd the shavery question.
The following, editorial notice appeared in the
Kiobmond Dispatch of the 14th Instant:
The Insulting letter of Mr. Seward, -refusing to
receive the amount raised at a fair inEngland for
the bene&t of the Confederate prisoners, and distinct
ly imputing to the English the crime of being the
authors of all the troubles in America, is received
by the London Timm with commendable meekness.
Mot a spark of resentment or spirit lights up the
sluggish comments on that remarkable document.
The British lion is a designation whlohoan here
after be only Ironically applied to Great Britain.
The king of beasts Is not in the habit of being
bearded in.bis den with Impunity- The patient ass
would be a more appropriate emblem of a Govern
ment which bears anything.that can be pat upon It,
and greatly prefers provender to battle.
There was a time Aheathe sword of England
would have leaped] from its scabbard at the slightest
of the provocations, now lnnumerable, which It has
received from the Jfiilted States. * But that day has
passed. Its chivalry has fallen into the sere and
yellow leaf. * Its people are as * brave * and manly as
ever,.but the spirit ofArt.de and money-getting has
deqdencd the sentiment of honor, and the oanker of
* a long peace has eaten out the' pith and* 'Vitality of'
military pride. Ever since the downfall 'of tbeTory
party, and the predominance* In the national e'o'nn
olls of . the commerolal interest,'national chivalry
has .jeon- dead to; England, * TKC Tories,* with all
their faults and errors, were* the 'true* representa

in hlq old eago, when Brother * Jonathan o'in poke
the longest kind,of pole into It every day without
eliciting a single roar. ' “ " * * *."
’ We agree for once with W. H. Seward, when he
.saw that England tt responslblo for the present ca;*
lamltlps of i fEIB/ioontinent, and that our,onoe pros-.
perous and happy States are now. the scenes of al
most'unparalleled'bloodshed and misery, the re
sponsibility rests upon Great Britain. - The anti
slavery .party in the North would have died out
long ago but for the inspirations it received trom a
country to which all Americans'were In the habit
of looking foflessons in civilization and morals.

■ Once in every fortnight throughoutthe winterth*
promoters ot the midnight meeting movement hold,,
a meetln g, to Which' fallen women of every degree
are-invitea. . A large room is hired,now to the
.vicinity ,ofthe- Haymarket, now In Broad street,
Westminster, now In the Euston road, or other pan
ofLondon, where the evil It is sought to grapple
wlth la known to flohrish Inrank lnxurlanee; cards
and tracts are distributed during the early portion
of the same evening, and from eleven o’clock all
female applicants are admitted without question at
the door. The meeting of last Thursday was held
at the-St. James’ ;Hail, and was numerously at
tended byprostltntes of a certain grade. The room
-began to fill'shortlybefore midnight, and the clergy
men and others who had issued the Invitations oponed
the proceedings with prayer, alter which a hymn
was song and earnest exhortations given. ,Ont of the
UO or 160 women who availed themselves of the
cards of Invitation which had been diligently given
to the caslno-frequ enters and street/wal kora of the
vicinity, it was confidently expected that some
twelve would be ledlto seek the aid of the society,
and that out of that number nine would be perma
nently reclaimed. . These figures are merely given
as the expectations of the promoters—expectations
founded not on the observation of the night, but de
rived from long experience and a oareful study ol
the averages of preceding meetings. • It would, In
deed, be hazardous to the extreme to venture a posi
tive opinion upon the effeot of the ministrations of a
partleular evening from more etternai observation,
for It is only to the days following thereupon that
the infinenoe exerted can bear palpable fruits A
card printed thus: “Dear friend, if you will can on
Mr. Stabb 9, Red Lion square, Holborn, W., 0.,
any day between ten and tour, he will advise with
you, and If possible assist you for the future,” was
given to' each woman as she lett the hall, and It Is
only after the presentation of these cards that even
,an approximate estimate of the good wrought
can be termed. . The common course is to offer
the women-who oome an- asylum for a time to .
one or other of the homes of the sooiety, and
it Is confidently asserted that aeventy-flve per
cent, of the.number thus sheltered remain to the
situations ultimately obtained ior them, and never
resume their Immoral life. It la painful to say
aught whloh may seem to reflect, however remote
ly, upon efforts which merit the gratitude of the
nation, but It wonld .be Idle and foolish to oonceal
that the proceedings of last Thursday did not
strike ns an satisfactory. Tho women were not so
well behavcd as might have been fairly expected.
There was less, attention, more frequent interrup
tions, greater levity, and far more palpable indif
ference than some published accounts bad led us to
expect. The’ poor, worn-out, battered creatures,
with ruddled cheeks -and lacklustre eyes, who sat
stolid, silent, and immovable, as If content to enjoy
without trouble the physical oomforts of warmth
and light, who swallowed their hot coffee with an
eagerness which showed them to be both hungered
and athirst,-were well'behaved enough—that is,
they made no sign, Moody and torpid, they neither
betrayed animation nor displayed dlsapprobatlon or
assent at any stage of the prooeedlDgs, but, if ap
pearances were to be trusted, heard the earnest
pleadto'gs.of the speakers with'as little Interest as u
they had been couched In an unknown tongue.
But many of thAyounger women treated the wiiole
affair with undisguised contempt. There were.
. laughing, chatting, and elbow nudging during sing
ing ana .prayer, and the noise rather Increased
than diminished when the minister of the eve-'
ntog delivered his. address. Nothing could be
more feeling. or more broadly charitable than
the tone adopted-by this gentleman. There was
neither assumption of superiority to his hearers,
nor an offensive ostentation of speaking down to
their level. Perhaps, however, the view taken of
the antecedents ol the people before him was of
too .Ideal a character to be thoroughly effective.
The broken-hearted .father, the. vacant seat to the
chimney corner, the sad thoughts of the missing
one at the family gathering on the coming
Christmas day; and the hearty welcome back of
the poor prodigal to the fold, are, It is to be feared,
Strangely unfamiliar images to the lone prostitute
of real life. These are the associations of senti
ment; but If we could really draw aside the veil
and see the wretched surroundings and utterly de
moralized associations of the childhood of a large
proportion of such people as were assembled at
St. James’ Hall, we should too often find that the
degradation of to-day Is not an abyss Into which
they have suddenly fallen, but rather the natural
sequence to a hideously-perverted Infancy and a
besotted home.. There were not a dozen of the
ordinary dashlpg West-End prostitutes among the
women- we saw; though here and there. to the
ranks of the old, and haggard, and nd3erably
shabby ones, might be seen a face which had
figured to satins and-lace at no very distant day,
while Its owner was pointed out as one of the
fashionably notorious women of her hour. The com
mon, vulgar, brazen creature, whose shame sits
lightly onhershoulders,was,however, most nume
rously represented of all, and throughout the even
ing she tittered and giggled, regardless.of looks of
remonstrance, and to defiance -of expostulations
more openly expressed. Nor did this seem to pro
ceed from the bravado often simulated to hide deep
feeling. The proceedings were Often hold to bo jo
cose, and the tone of the younger women present
was uniformly ribald. In one instance, and one In- •
stance only during our stay, did we note an exblbl
• tlon of feeling. The pictures of the bereaved parents
and the deserted home affected one young oroatnre
so deeply that Bhe retired to hvsterics,and remained
sobbing violently at the foot of the stairs, declining
all attempts at consolation on the part of the pro
moters of the meeting. But against this we heard
the loud laugh and the low jest at the very Instant
the moßt solemn appeals were being made; wo heard
“don’t tell Ilea’,’ as a parting sally from one of the
best-dressed of the women as she retired, and we
neted such a general absence of proper feeling as to
raise a doubt whether these large assemblages do not
to some measure defeat the very ends they are de
signed to bring about. It is certain that chepredoml
nant sentiment of a crowd Is contagious, and that
when the majority are not merely disposed to scoff,
but are determinedly bent bn scoffing, the minority
whose hearts Incline to repentance and reformation
have a serious additional Impediment to overcome.
On the other' hand, the committee urge, and with
reason; that they have no means of reaching the
class they seek to elevate, save by some snob meet
ings as these; and fraught with difficulty as any,
plan of honse-to-house visiting must he, it Is not
easy to suggest ah improvement -upon their pre
sent scheme. Still, when we- see callous indiffe
rence on the one hand, and careless, jesting frivolity
on the other, and when we find mat resoueß. are
happily made to, spite of such frightfully opposing
influences, we cannot refrain from hoping: that the
admirable efforts of the Midnight Meeting Society
will yet figd some more favorable channel for them
development, and will consequently meet with a
yet higher average of success. That they have
done so muoh already Is an Interesting testimony
both to their earnest seal and to: the deep and cry
ing want theyhave supplied. But whatever may
be the effeot of such an evening as that ol Thursday
on the minds of those accustomed to deal with fallen
women In the mass, to a stranger It must hove been
depressing and discouraging to the extreme. If
the shallow natures, of the people exhorted were
really being Impressed at the very time they were
paMfcg flippant comments and Coarse jests, the Infe
rence is that the latter were provoked by the presence
and contiguity of their companions to evil. But as
these poor women flocked out, many of them long
before the address was at an end, their wild talk
and reckless bearing spoke sadly of tbe'searing,
hardefljeg-tofiuenee of their shameless lives. All
honor, then, to the band of philanthropists who are
earnestly, and, to spite of the unfavorable examples.
we saw the other evening, successfully, endeavoring
to lessen the number of fallen women in our streets.
The operation of these.mldnlght meetings may not
be so clearly beneficial at the moment as might be
wished, but the committee have a practical answer
to all criticism to the homeß they are’filling and
-have filled, to the young lives they have rendered
happier and more pure, and to the proofs they furnish
of the abiding Influence effected by their counsels.

so perfect that even John Morgan', onacertaln oc

through Ohio. His first experiment at deception
' In' woman’s attire Vas flayed off upon' his com*
mandlsggeneial. He wa&neatly dressed in Bloomer
costume, wore a fancy military cap, containing, a
wig of woman’s hair, which in longtreßses flowed
down carelessly over his shoulders. Thus attired, he
was Introduced to his chieftain by Borne of his com

resistible promptings of patriotism, was earnestly
solicitous to obtain faP position in Ms command fa
vorable to. the deyelopme&G of her highly Intensified
sympathies and prowess in behalf of die rebellion.
Morgan, struck with the beauty and heroic bearing
of Mbiß Mundy, at once consented to.enroll her-and
give her a desirable position. But, on Inquiring
particularly In reference to; her name, she replied,
