1 1 1 13-V-, CITY.
lesabek Of_ the ltefeeelment Saloons—
The . *codeine' of Music Filled—ln
tereeting Proceedings-
The Academy Of Music was crowded last
evening with an appreciative and intelligent
audience, Comprising the beauty and fashion
of our city, to witness the exercises eonse-,
.quent upon the closing of the Cooper-shop
Velunteer and the Union Volunteer Refresh
stilent Saloons.
The meeting was called to order at fifteen
minutes after eight, by William M. Cooper,
after which ex-GoeernOr Pollock was intro
duced. He was received with applause, and
s poke substantially.as ioliows ;
We have mettosnight to celebrate the elOsing
of two of our Philadelphia institutiona—singu
larly Philadelphian and wholly American—the
Vision Volunteer and the Cooper-shop Volun
teer Refreshment Saloons of this city. They
were rivals, it is true ; but their rivalry was
„ s eenerous, for both worked only for the Ma
fort of the brave men who passed through the
City on their way to fields of death, or after
wards to their homes. They were institutions
of no ordinary fame. Begun amid the rush to
arms and the thunders of war, their grand
work litis closed amid the return of peace and
the triumph Of the Union armies. They were
actuated by noble impulses, and everything
they did was characterized by a noble UnSel
lishaess ; and, though distinct in organiza
tion, they had but one object. They were
organized. in May, 1851, almost simulta
neously, and while all honor is due to the
gentlemen that controlled it, the credit
of its conception—the grand inspiration
of the work—belongs to man's superior—wo
man. [Applause.] The first regiment that
went through found no refreshment saloon;
but, while the men were standing in line, foot
sore, weary, and home-sick, the ladies of the
neighborhood brought them refreshments
from their own tables. About that time many
husbend found his breakfast table or tea
table almost stripped of its dainties for the
soldiers. [Applause.] The women loved their
husbands, but they loved the soldiers, who
represented the country and all that was dear
to them, far more. What was home without a
country and a flag—the symbol of power—to
peoteet them in the enjoyment of all the rights
of humankind, and all that they eailld value
On earth 1 [Great applause.]
As an ihstance of the great Work performed
by the joint labors of these organizations, let
me say that not less than one million two
hundred thousand eubstantial meals have
been fernielied by them to soldiers going and
returning, or, in otl:e s words, they have fed a
population twice as large as the city of
counting . every man, woman, and
Child. [Applause.) The contibutions in money
during the four years of operation amount to
one hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and
the value of goods and provisions contributed
would be seventv-eve thousand dollars. In
abort, the 'Value 01 the time and labor gratui
tously devoted to the good work, coupled
with the contributions before mentioned, will
scarcely fall short of one million of dollars.
True ; it is a small sum, but considering the
political and national aspect of the question,
the grandeur of the work is plainly visible.
New York, with all her boasted superiority,
-did -not contain such an inetitutien. A New
York regiment once came in ; and, after the
men bad partaken of a bountiful meal, their
-colonel made them a speech, contrasting their
reception here with the one they received in
New York, and, although the men came from
teat city, they gave three rousing cheers for
Philadelphia and three groans for New York.
Our city is noted for her peace-loving
Friends. These men, true to their grand prin
ciples, would give nothing to support the war
or the soldiers. One wished to subscribe, but
his principles forbade; so he bought a - picture
-of one of the Saloons, and paid fifty dollars for
it. Another Friend said "" these men in blue
are not soldiers; they are the National Polices
they have a disturbance in the country, and
the police are suppressing it," and he made a
liberal donation in provisions. [Laughter and
applause].
The speaker paid an eloquent tribute to the
memory of Miss Anna Ros s , who had been one
of the foremost in perceiving and ministering
to the needs of the soldier. It was not per
mitted her to see the dawn of peace on the
earth ; but she has her reward.
.enaul the deepest stillness, the speaker ad
verted to the great National calamity. Where
is the noble form of him whose name was upon
every lip. and whose features were in every
hearth The man of peace, simply,. purely
great ; the representative of humanity and
freedom throughout the world, is not with us
to hear the shouts of victory and join in the
pavans of peace. He sleeps ; but his tomb will
be g shrine to the American patriot. He was a
martyr to his country's cause. In the hour of
his countries danger, in the midst of a start
ling and tremendous war, he dared before the
world and before high Heaven to proclaim the
-eternal truth that all mankind are free and
equal. [Applause.] With one immortal dash
of the pen, he proclaimed liberty to four mil
lions of people, and asserted the destiny of
humanity. e bies gone to his reward:
The speaker retired amid a storm of ap
plause.

SPEECH OF HON. HENRY D. MOORE.
lion. Henry D. Moore was then introduced.
lie said: We are here to-night to rejoice over
the closing labors of one of the most useful
organizations of our city—one whose reputa
tion is not limited by the confines of our city.
but which spreads through the length and
breadth of the land. In dispensing the
benefits of these institutions, how true
has it been shown that it is more blessed
to give than to receive. He questioned
whether there was a lady or gentleman
present, who had loaned their services to these
institutions, who would exchange the joy they
feet at having done so much, for all of earthly
wealth that could be brought them. They
have been engaged in a great national work—
a work in which 'soldiers from every part
of the country have been benefited, and
the prayers and blessings of these soldiers
will be showered upon these benefactors for
all time. If there ever was a period in the his
tory of our country when we should feel it a
proud honor to be an American citizen, that
time is now. However much that title might
have been respectedbefore '
hereafter it will
command a higher regard and respect from
every nation of the civilized world. Our in
stitutions have been looked upon as an experi
ment. They have been proven to be a reality.
What nation could have gone through the
trial through which we have gone and have
come out as unscathed as we have done. What
Are the teachings of the war? They made the
people determine to stand by their govern•
m ent np matter what other nations might
say afield them. We not only carried
on this gigantic war - with our own resources,
but actually fed the nations of Europe
which were laughing at our imbecility. At
the time nations of Europe were jeering
at iss we were sending out from our ports ves
sels, with the stars and stripes at their mast
head, carrying bread to the famishing millions
of the the nation who were smiling at our
weakness. To whom are we indebted for the
glorious results that have attended the war 1
If we fail to ask this question and answer it
_properly, the blessing of God will never follow
us as a people or as a nation. If we forget the
gallant heroes of the cause of liberty, then
will God forget us. Let no one say that,
because he has contributed even thou
sands of dollars towards the Cause, that his
duty is performed. Let him look at the
maimed heroes around him—let him ask him
self the consequences which would have at
tended a defeat at Gettysbrirg. It were better
that we should leave our children a Republic
and penniless than to have left then" millions
and a broken and dismembered Confederacy.
lie appealed to the ladies, and to all present,
in behalf of the fair for the Soldiers' Home,
and expected in the fall to see contributions
at the fair not only from our citizens, but from
every State in the East. Let us demon
strate to -the world that we are great in
our benevolence and our charity to our
soldiers and the blessings of God will follow
us and our children forever.
The band then played "Rally Round the
Flag." Two American flags were produced
-and waved on the platform. The whole audi
-ence rose to their feet, Waved hats, handiter
•ehiciii, &c., and at the conetusion of the a i r
:some one in the audience cried, Three cheers
for Old Glory." The cheers were given with a
will by ladies and gentlemen, handkerchiefs
were waved, and the greatest enthusiasm pre
vailed for some minutes. "Rally Round the
Flag" was followed by "Hail Columbia,"
"Yankee Doodle."
The cheers of the audience silliest silenced
the music, and it was some minutes after the
band had ceased playing, before .quiet enough
existed for the Chairman to introduce Hon
- James M. Scovel, of New Jersey.
SPERCH OP HON. J. M. SCOVEL.

Cromwell's brigade of Ironsides, made in
vincible by the impulse of a sentiment (trust

SPEECH OF REV. KINGSTON GODDARD, D. D.
Rev. Kingston Goddard, D. D., was next in
troduced. He said the record of these chari
ties shall endure to all eternity. They will
endure to all eternity, and we come not here
to-night to mourn at their expiration, but to
rejoice that the rebellion has been crushed
and the victory won, and the causes which
called them into existence have ceased. He
bad thought in reference to a charity pro
posed to raise—what should be done with. the
eagle that now adorns the refreshment sa
loon I The eagle that had been carried and
placed in its position in the dark days of the
republic,. when seemingly despising adver
sity, it raised its head and spread its wings,
welcoming the brave defenders of the country.
lie concluded by saying that the eagle should
be pined on the battle-field of Gettysburg,an
emblem of a grateful people to their martyred
sons, and a token of battles fought and victory
won. The speech was received with much
favor.
Dr. Nebinger was next introduced. He said
these two HdreSllilleat Saloons organized and
carried out efficiently the first two hospitals
that ever did any good to the Union soldier.
The Refreshment Saloons grew out of the ne
cessities.of the sick soldier. The necessity for
a Soldiers' Home also arose out of the exigen
cies of the war, and the Committee of the Re
freshment Saloons saw this and went to work.
They obtained a Chart Or—the Home was com
menced. On the 22d day of December that
Home was dedicated. It is an out-cropping of
the Refreshment Saloons. It was not neces
sary to point to the maimed soldiers, unable,
by reason of their injuries, to work. They are
all around us; they must be cared for; they
must have a retreat in which they can receive
all the care and comforts of home. The Home
thus far has worked and is working to the
satisfaction of all giving of their bounties or
receiving its benefits. The Home is full.
Shall we stop and say that our work is done?
No, that home is only an incentive to the
grander idea of erecting a large and commodl-
Onsbomeforthe accommodation of sol diers and
sailors. He would not ask them whether they
would come forward and assist in the move
ment: He would answer for them—yes. He
knew that was their answer. He would only
ask them one favor, and that was that they
should assist this movement, and withhold
their assistance from any other movement.
There is another home afoot ;_but let usget
through one at a time, and when we get this
first one through then we will go forward and
do all in our power to assist another. The
movement contemplates holding a fair in this
building in October next. That fair will re
prebent not only this State, but every loyal
State in the Union. The movement is a grand
one. It is a ladies , movement, and we ask you
to give to it your firmest, energetic, and best
pecuniary support.
The band then
. played " Auld Lang Syne,”
and the audience slowly separated.
ARRIVAL OF THE 104TH REGIMENT.—
The 104th Regiment, numbering 748 of cers and
men, arrived in Philadelphia at an early hour
yesterday morning, and steadily they tramped
with iota bannershying and drPhis beatixig:
from - the Baltimore Railroad Depot to the
Cooper Shop and 'Union Volunteer Refresh
ment Saloons, where they shared the hospi
talities of these celebrated establishments.
The regiment then proceeded to Camp Cad
walader. This organization opened the battle
at Fair Oaks, (General Casey's Divisiond after
which it shared the defeats Or the army under
McClellan. The regiment was composed of as
brave a set of men as ever shouldered a mus
ket. After going through the Peninsula cam
paign, the regiment - proceeded to Charleston,
South Carolina, and took a prominent part in
the desperate and bloody assault on Fort Wag
ner. It was formerly commanded by Colo
nel W. W. H. Davis, who returned with that
portion of the regiment that did not re-enlist.
He was severely wounded. Those that arrived
Testerday, are mostly re-enlisted veterans.
hey looked hardy, and decidedly sunburnt,
and appeared to be in the most excellent,
spirits. The regiment was organized in
DoylestOWnucks County, in September, 1861,
by Colonel Davis, under orders issued by the
W D
ar Department. Attached to it was Du
cell's celebrated Battery. The following is a
summary of the battles this regiment was en
gaged in: Siege of YorktOWnOVilliamsburg,
Fair Oaks.
It may be said that the regiment fought
against fearful odds, and bravely, too, at Pair
Oaks; there being ten rebels to one Union'
soldier. The result was that the advance of
Casey's division was driven back, the
cause of which could not be aceounted
for by General McClellan,in his official de
spatch relating to the disaster. General
McClellan, however, in the Ileßt despatch cor
rected a portion of the first one, and explained
that he was led into error, as he was not on
the battle-field.at the time of the engagement.
After McClellan's seven days' retreat, the
regiment proceeded to Gloucester Point, Va.,
where it remained until December, 1861 it
then joined an expedition to the South, and
arrived at Morehead City, N. C., during the
first week in January, 1863. After remaining
in North Carolina a month, it proceeded to
Port Royal, S. C., and participated in ,Dupont's
and Hunter's attack on Charleston, April 8,
1863. Upon the failure of the attack, it was
ordered to Beaufort, S. C., where it remained
until .July when Gilmore landed on Folly
Island, ant again attacked the defences of
Charleston. The 104th served in General A.
H. Terry's division during these operations,
and took an active part in the successful cap
ture of Fort Wagner, after a fearful struggle
of two months.
The regiment remained at Morris Island un
til the 10th Corps came north to Virginia,
when it was ordered to Hilton Head. The re
giment was in the attack on Charleston, made
by General John E. Foster, in July, 1804, by
way of John's Island, and afterwards was or
dered to Florida, where it served until Au
gust; it was then ordered to Washin_gton, and
was placed in the 23d Array Corps, 111 the fol
lowing month, September, the regiment was
reorganized, and the veterans were ordered
immediately to the Shenandoah Valley, wher e they participated inSheridan's campaign
against Early. In December the regiment was
sent to the Army of the James, and occupied
the Bermuda front. In the grand advances on
the 2d and 3d of April the regiment bore its
part, and finally occupied Petersburg, with
other regiments of Ferrero's Division. The
last four months of service of this
_regiment

The officers in.this regiment were intelligent
gentlemen, and well instructed in their duties,
nearly all of whom having served before.
The review was very creditable, and the
men marched well. The Colonel was tem
porarily alisent, and the command devolved
upon Lieutenant Colonel Harrison, who is a
second lieutenant of the 2n United States
Cavalry. The whole appointments and tn•
tenor economy of this regiment were in
marked superiority to any . other I have seen.
The regiment was armed with Springfield
muskets, calibre fifty-eight, which were in ex
cellent order. The clothing and equipments
were in good order and properly worn. The
carriage of the officers and men was good.
In this regiment the cooking is done by the
company, and there was no complaint. The
books and papers of the regimental and com
pany officers were well kept, and brought up to
date. 1 have never seen better penmanship
than that of the regimental books and papers.
The police of the camp was very excellent.
The ground in front of the Colonel's tent was
beautifully ornamented with > plots of grass
arranged in letters reading, "Eighth Union

the grounae, with the letter of the company in.

Many of the companies had these little pas

great deal of taste in ornamental gardening.

very good., and I would like to see it perma

cludes publication, The Press is desirous of
lending its influence in fa.voi , of the game, in
order, if possible, to direct more general at
tention to it. The exercises of the game are
such as to bring the entire muscular fabric of
humanity into play, and therefore hardens the
system and promotes health. It should there
fore be encouraged. In the course of another
year there -trill be agrand tournament in Phi
ladelphia of the best base-ball players in the
United States. Clubs from distant parts of
our great country will take part in it. The
Philadelphia clubs, therefore, should practice
well with " slow" as well as "fast" balls, and
aim at perfection in striking the ball every
time the pitcher bowls it: There are some
"batters"who very seldom permit, a ball to
pass them, and they generally make "home
runs." They have the " knack," to a consider
able extent, of batting a low ball, - which
almost defies a" fly-catch." At all events, let
