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

Sanitary Fair
Ameetiag for the purpose of making
preliminary'arrangements for a Fair in
ftid of the funds of the Sanitary Com
mission, was held yesterday at the rooms
of the Board ot Trade on Fourth street.
The meeting was called to order by
Thomas Bakewell, esq., who nominated
the Hon. Thos. M. Ilowe, as President
of the meeting. Judge Sterrctt, Genetal
Brook®, Messrs. Brunot, James Marshall,
Joshua Hanna, ,T. P. Tanner and other
gentlemen were chosen Vice Presidents
and S. F. Von Boucrhorst and dames
O’Connor, Secretaries. Mr. O’Connor
from the committee for that purpose,
then read the address to the citizen® of
Pittsburgh urging the propriety of hold
ing the Fair and recommendations for
the plan of organization.
The report was adopted and a dis
cussion took place in regard to tin* time
of holding the Fair—the report recom
mending the lOthofMay—this'v. as deem
ed too early by some, and after dis
cussion it was referred to ihc Executive
Committee for the power to fix the day
and report through the papers on Mon
day morning. Mr. Batchelder from a
committee that had been appointed for
the purpose of visiting the Sanitary Fair
in Cleveland, then entertained the’inert
ing with an u< count of the building, de
tail? of arrangements, Ac.. Av ,
The vast proportions of the building,
the receipts and other matters pertaining
to the fair, were listened to wiih great at
tention. The building erected in C!cy< 1
land cost some ten thousand dollars, and
there is a proposition to remove the
building lo Pitvdmrgh, tin* expense® of
removal ar.:l erection in Pittsburgh bc- N
ing estimated at some eighteen hundred
dollars, exclusive of material.
Mr. O'Connor, from ihe ExciUtivi
Committee, then read a list of commit
tees, amounting to some sixty-eight in
all, to which some twelve addition® had
been proposed. The appointment of
these committees was teferred to the
Executive Committee, with power to
make addition®. The names of the Ex
ecutive Committee heretofore uppointed.

with that already announced, ami t<.

Mr. Brunot addressed tne mm ting, an

which were crowned with triumphant
success. Hi® remark® were enthusiasti

Parody on the “Song of ih. Miirt.’
which appeared in last Monday's
The DUpatch is very indignant about tin
matter and wants tin: name of the author
and denounce® the Song with ®urpbw in
dignation. The follnwini: is a spccinnn
of the style:
Neither pathos m theme tun rr.etit in the treat
ment u ill justify such ft La=t' im»rcjirc~ei.lni ion
ut the eaaseof the war. orof the manneran u hid.
it lias been conducted We Ham- p<vcn hut n
sample of the entire “song,' which, vr will
venture to say, was neither written by hij Amer
ican nor by any one with a spark of American
let-ling in nia soul. We trust that the gentlemen
who come among us from other lands, and shield
thoinsehes from participatirfn in defence of til
government under the base idea of alienage, u i!i
spare us the infliction of their driveline* »ur
tlie sad necessities of our war. Such persons are
pardonable for their failure to comprehend the
American's earnest love of his freedom and man
hood— hia willingness to devote blood ami tr-- i
ure in their 'defence—but we cannot pardon their
crocodile sympathy .
We dislike to spoil this virtuous .un
burst hut must do it in self-defence. Tin
Song made no allusion whatever to tin
present war, which is not surprising
when we inform our pugnacious neigh
bor, that it \va- written in ls4fiand may
he found in the Pittsburg Chri*iian Ad
rnrutf. Nov. ‘2d, of the above year. We
hope* our Tcmperanceville friend will
rcaeivea formal apology and the CJ<ri
'id'i Adrr'catf due credit.
How the Females are Employ
ed. —The fir«t outbreak of the jchclih.n
stopped many industrial pursuit? that
had been chiefly carried on by females
Of these the closing of the cotton facto,
rics was probably the most important to
thi3 class. We have been until m i-fit
ly entirely at a loss to account for th. ir
present occupation. We have been n -
eently informed by a gentleman who en
joys every opportunity for cornet in
formation that some eight hundred fe
males are now employed by tobacco
nists in Ibis city, and that thi* trade,
government work, &r., has given full
employment to as many as can be found
to work. We are gratified to know that
no distress has been caused to worthy
females dependent upon the work <.f
their hands for support.
Exchanged Prisoners.—Among the
prisoners recently exchanged wc notice
the name of Maj. Harry White, whn«c
notoriety in the late Senatorial dead
lock will cause his name long to he re
membered.
The names of Majo 1 ’ Nceper and C-tp
tain W. Rownnd, are also upon the ii-u.
and we presume they will soon report t<>
their friends, after so long and tedious
captivity. No announcement of the term
of adjustment of the difficulties bei ween
the Confederates and our own mi hori
ties having been made, we presume that
it is to prevent c.mplieat'on by dixuir
sion in the prints that the plan is suprrs
ed. The prisoners and their friend- will
be sufficiently gratified with the fact, nm
to scrutinize too closely the particulars.
There will be much cause of congrtuu
lation on all sides.
Doctor Dake. —The I n Wan wpv*

Tindlo and Hockett have testified pos

fers is termed Dypsomaniayor an irresist

number of witnesses were present, in
cluding Dr. C. M. Dake, brother of Dr

NEW YORK DRY GOODS TRADE.
Trails is dull tor the season. I 'nusual caution
is exhibited by bu\ era. who limit their purchases
to immediate wants, expecting lowvr^nee-from
a fall in gold, winch is yet tooorae. Prices, how
eter. have not materially given w*j. Prints
appear heavy in price, at a small reduction. Less
is also doing in brown and bleached shirtings
and sheetings. Jobbers do not pay asking prices
readilj. brills arc only wanted lor the armv.
Denims, ticks and stripes are alike dull, but are
steady in price, stocks being light. Delaines are
in good demand, and sell more readily than any
other class of goods. The better styles are scarce
and prices timi. Fancy cassimeresare quiet, ex
cept for some leading and favorite styles, which
are having a run, and are sold as fast as they ar
rive. Plaids and checks are inactive. Silk mix
tures are in scanty supply, satinets ate in
fair demand. Imported fabrics /ire not
very active at private sale, and the chief busi
ness of the season will be at auction.
llritish.dress goods are nor so active aslast week,
though desirable styles are wanted. F’rench
coods are to be olFered largely at auction, and
little is doing at private sales, Ribbons are in
fair demand. There is a good inquiry for tier
man doeskins and broadcloths, at low prices.
British melton are favorites, ns well as Scotch
tweeds. The importations are very heavy. The
imports of drv good* last week amounted ro W,-
*»7:j.f»oo, against only *2,422.215 in the correspond
ing week nfl.Hiri. lhi? large supply of foreign
goods increasing the stocks, keeps up a distrust
in the mmds of buyers, who hesitate allthe moie
at buying freely. The large imports also keep
up a neavj demand for gold to pay duties, and
the advance in the price of gold reacts to check
all business. since the sth .November, the im
ports amount in‘value to *£2.600.000, against less
thaa twenty millions in the corresponding period

The market yesterday was not aotlve for vari
ous reasons—the amount for sale wa3 limited
and the rates demanded by holders was a shade
