The Santtary Commission was work- ne nobly at the front, in Hospital anid camp, ibutits work dil not embrace the Northern cities, where regiments were being ralsed and. recrulted for, and to which, unhappily, eo many ofthe brave boys returned to die, The abso- lute need of doing something being realized, the Indies of the elty met im ‘tho War Committee rooms in May, 1803, and {ssucd a call fora mass-meeting, which was held fn Bryan Salt, on Clark street, between Ran- Soph and Washington streets, on the 3d of the following month. At this meeting the Ton, ‘Thoinas B. Bryan prestded, and after some stir. ring apeeches-ha-l beer made committees of ladies were nppointed to rafse funds and totako the néceasary Preliminars—steps towards organ- zation, Nine days later a second mecting was held at which the Committee reported progress, and Ib war unanimously concluded to establish at onco a Tome * for the GRATUITOUS REENESUMENT AND TEMPORARY TODOING of our soldiers on thelr way to and from the army,’ and forthe care of such os mizht be elck, The following {a the Met of oflicers as orlginally constituted: Thoinaa B, Bryan, Presi- dent; Mrs. O.

Up to thls tino $1,100 hal been raised, and the Board at onco rented a low two-story bulldog on Randulph street, which was opened publicly July 4, 1863, a grand dinner belng given to afl thosolders in camp and hospital.

REBT," situated on Michizan avenue, south of Randolph Ktreet, and close to the Jake shore. The build- ing wasa very long, low, frame structure, and. was picad wider the charge of the ladles who. had been managing tho Hume. They attended to the work throughout, and fed the soldiers with their own hands, only one pala servant, a big Frenchwomun knowo as * Annie," betn ammployed. it was in this building that Col, Jonn Bross, then on his way to Petersburg with his colared ‘truopa, spent lls last hourin Clica- go Several changes had by this time becn inode In the Board.

Jt was then decided (1861) to erect a building, and what now constitutes a wing of the build- fog uscd us the St. Joseph's Orphan Asylum ut the foot of Thirty-tith etrect was bulit at a cost of $15,000, In tue following year the maln building was finished st a cost of over $30,000, and Muy 20, 1505, iL wus thrown open. ‘The “Rest? was clused up fn the following Septain- der, the arrivals that year baying been 00, and the meats given numbering’ 60,000,” This ‘made wcrand total of 124,000 men cared fur, and 3H,000 eats furnished.

One provision, view- ed in the Heht of subsequent events, was a wise one, and Its violation nas involved the affairs of the Home In certain trouble which would never have occurred If the Inw had been lived up to. This was the clause which Impera- tively demanded that the Treasurer should fur- nish honde (p double the anount of funds tn his hands, which was violated when Gen. Jobn Mc- Arthur was elected Treasurer. From 1806 to 1870, with the exception of one summer, when the {nvalided soldiers were trank- ferred to Blue Ieland, the Home continued at Thirty-fifth street. ‘The property was valued, onawar basis, at $100,000, but when It was sought to'make a sale only half that sum could be realized. The property was purchased by a number of Unitarians, who proposed to mike It Into a female’ college, for $50,000. They afterwards sould it tu the St. Joseph's Or- o transfer. phan Asylum, losing $10,000 over vhe Home was TRANSPERNED TO ITS PRESENT LOCATION at South Evanston, where several acres of Jani uirchased aud a very fine three-story brick building erected. Years past there has been talk about closing it up, the fact that It had ont- lived {ts usefulness. becoming day by day more apparent, With a fine buikfing, splendid grounds, and a location unsurpasacd by any, all that coulu be done with the magnificent proper- ty held hy the Home ‘was to furnish ehelter for al nuk twenty soldicrs—a Superintendent and Matron. THB UNWISE FINANCIAL YOLIcY or MUANTHUR, who placed over $42,000 In notes and mortgages on property which tt fs tuiposelbte to realize upon, precipitated the Inevitable conclusion, and at a meeting held it was decided to close up the Home entirely, The inmates bave been transferred to the Central Soldiers’ Mome, at Dayton, O., with the exception of a few who aEn. _aré retaloed at Evanston to luok after the prem ises and grounds. Exactly what will be dovo with the property has not yet been decided, but there is n strong fecling in the Board that it fs not advisable “to acll in the present ie- preased state of the rent-estate market. When disposed of the funds will be devoted, as the charter directs, to the rellef of soldiers ond their children. Leutslation will be needed, and this cannot bo obtained for a considerable tine; and 26 the State Constitution forbids the pass- ago of any apcclal laws, there are dificultics_in the way.

Strike Out West for a Farm—Encournge- ment) far Young Men Who Usve Not Chosen Their Vocation for Life. Aurora (it.) Herald, Tho recent strike bas abown the young men of the country that working on a rallroad Is not the most desirable occupation In the world. Experience has demonstrated that the universal tendency among the managers of railroads is to treat Inbor as it does any other commodity, and, therefore, tu purchase the article as cheap as it can bo procured, Heyes they cut down wages, and continue tu cut down as lung as tho laborer will stand it; nnd, if he don't like tho plan, he is invited to stand aside aud give place to others entirely out of work, who are ready to take his place at lower wages. But phy uced thoy go to work on araliroad when they can be thelr own masters, make a living, and oven ac- epmutate considerable property ot other ovct- pattous! Agriculture, the tlrat and noblest oc- cupatton of man, fs ever open for more laborers. wha a few acros of land and reasonable indus try, a man can ralseatilicient brend and meat for himself and family, and in case of necessity can also raise his own wool and flax, and spin and weave his cloth fs in primitive times, and ro be independent of all thy rest of mankind. There are thousands of acres of food land West of us syet uncultivated, and many right around us which might produce double'thelr present crops with the expenditure of Judiclous labor. ‘The wages paid to far Inborera nay scent small to those who look at the comparutively large figures po by the rallrosd, but boys and young men do not count the dard, which fs always dneluded In farm wages; while. in the cnac of many rallroad men, it takes nearly all their waccs to pay board, especially if travel- Ing on the road, ‘Wo present below, for the en- cottragement of young men who have nob yet chosen their yocatlon for Ife, the names of a number of farniers in this immediate vicinity who commenced working out at very low waces, and who lave succecded ta making a Nying, besides laying up something for a ratny day. ‘The names arc well known in this vitinity, and wero gathered In linlf-hour's talk on the atrect, and could be multiplied many times by further search.

To the Editor of The Tribune, Tonrca, LaSalic Co., Tl, Aug. 15,—Now that quict is again restored, it fa the part of wisdom fo search out, and as for as porsible remove, the cause of the Inte labor troubles lest a worse thing comes upon us. It is tte to assume that raliroad employes and others of the working classes have wo real cause of complaint, no real grievances calling for redresse It is clear to tho most superticlal obscrver hat the industrial classes in all departments of useful occupation are in a moat deploratia condition, tn Wanye very many, cases on the “ragged edge,” if not ‘in # atate of actual starvation, “Unt while this is sv, we cannot sanction a resort to physical force to redress their wrongs. . We bellevo it is the duty of Government to ‘suppress riots and protect life and property, and we also belicye that it fs the duty of so elety to seethat justice fs meted out to all p tics, and the blame placed upon. and the pen- ay {uilicted upon, the real offenders, fthis were done, I think {t would be found that employers would in many causes have to share a largo portion of the ‘blame, Let mo give a cate in point. It fa reported, on what seeing to be good authority, that the miue- owners at Drafdwyod, Will County, who re- cently asked for military protection, have with. hel the wages of tho miners for the month of March last, and that in consequence of this de- fault on the part of the corn pa ea tho niiners wers unable to remove from there or to aeck win ployment elsewhere. Now, if this be eo, let ma askifthe employers were vot more to blame than the miners, and If they should not bo held reaponalble for the trouble at that place! ‘Tne people want to be correctly Informed of the fucte of this aud similar casea; and we must ask that Tus Tniwune will give the required information in this aa well as alt similar cases that may coime to its knowledge.
