“"““I fittiy |joSt. Fourth ward, aixeghkjty.—a meeting of the contributors of the local bounty -fund, for the Fourth Ward, Allegheny Oity, was held at the house of £. F. A. Faulha ber, on Thursday evening, March 10th, of the several Block Committees, some of whom re ported that persons who had subscribed to the fund now refused to pay their subscriptions, whilst others offered as an excuse for not con tributing that they were in favor of a draft, and mftde other kindred excuses. In conse quence of the near completion of the object in view, the necessary fund being nearly raised, and that in all probability the entire quota Of this sub-district has been credited, (measures having been taken to ascertain that fact so that due justice may be done to those veterans Who may ha\e credited themselves to this ward,) and it appearing that a small amount was still required to pay for printing and other necessary expenses. It was agreed that the Jdock. committees keep their books open till Thursday evening, the 17th inst., giv ing an opportunity :o such subscribers and oth ers who may desire to pay, that their names may appear upon the printed rolls, which each and every contributor may hand down to his children with pride. After a free interchange of opinion, the following preamble and resolu tions were unanimously adopted, and ordered to be printed in all the daily papers in Pittsburgh: ; .whereas. Some four hundred and fifty of the 1 enrolled and other citizens of the Fourth Ward, Allegheny, have contributed to a land by which nearly the full quota, under the two calls for 500,000 men, has been furnished to the Govern ment; and whereas, the number of enrolled men of said Ward is some thirteen hundred and fifty, thus the entire burthen has fallen upon about i one-third of those liable to the draft: therefore be it f Resolve d. That the Bounty Fund Commission- ' era of the Fourth ward, Allegheny City, be re quested to prepare a memorial to the Congress of the United States, through the Honorable Representative of the 23d Congressional Dis trict, requesting that they take such action as may exempt from the next draft all of the en- : rolled men of the Fourth ward, Allegheny city, who may have contributed the amount of forty dollars and upwards, by which this district has been enabled to furnish their full quota of vol unteers: Provided, however, that persons not enrolled may designate enrolled men in indigent circumstances, to whom subscriptions may be credited. Resolved, Thar the said Commissioners be re ?uestedto solicit co-operation of the Bounty 'und Commissioners of the several sub-districts ofthe 28d Congressional district. mh!2-lt AMUSEMENTS, UOH THEATRE.
