Au Appeal to tho People of the Con
federate States.
rpnE Directors of tho Young Meu’eChris-
X tian Association of Richmond respect
fully, but earnestly, submit'to the bonevoieut
anti the patriotic throughout tho Con federate
States an appeal in behalf of the Soldiers'
Fa mi lies in this city. Since the commence
ment of the war Richmond lias been a refuge
for those who have been driven from their
homos by our ruthless enemies. Thousands
ot helpless women and children, not from the
devastated counties of Virginia alone, but
from nearly every State of the Confederacy,
have sought an asylum in our midst. Our
. citizens have been appealed to in numberless
instances to relieve tho sick and wounded
Boldiers, to furnish shoos and tlothing for
soldiers in the field and hospital', and to af
ford food and shelter for their suffering fam
ilies, and nobly have they, in the great mas
jority of instances, responded to every appeal.
The supplies of provisions in the city at
this time are so reduced, and the difficulties
of obtaining others by ordinary means so
numerous and great, that the funds contribu
ted for the relief of the poor can accomnlish
but little in purchasing the necessaries of life.
In a written report from the Clothing Bus
rettu, it appears that there arc more than
three thousand females in this city* who are
seeking employment from the Government
iu vain, and that those who obtain work are
not fully employed. The wages received for i
their work will not enable these poor women
to procure a sufficiency of the plainest food
for themselves and children. Without as
sistance, then, front the city and country j
generally, many instances of actual start a- i
j tion must have occurred. Our City Council !
has made most liberal appropriations for the
purchase of supplies, both for gratuitous dis
tribution and for sale at cost; but the agents ;
employed for the purpose have nut been able ;
to procure the quantity of provisions required.
L nder these circumstances, we feel that it
is our duty to appeal to our fellow-citizens
throughout the Confederate States to forward,
without delay, contributions of money and
supplies to the Army Committee of this As
sociation. Since the commencement of ihe
War thfo Committee has labored zealously
and faithfully for the temporal and spiritual
welfare of our soldiers aud their families, and
for the success of our glorious cause. Let
those soldiers not be discouraged now. upon
the eve of our severest, and, as w-o trust, our
last and jnost glorious campaign, for want of
the generous,sympathy and support of their
friends at home.
Shipments made to Roger Martin, Super
intendent, or Wm. P. Muuford, Chairman of
the Army Committee, will be promptly at- !
tended to. And in accordance with a special
agreement made with the Buperiut< ndent'of
the Southern Express Company, all express
charges will be paid by them at Richmond.
Contributions of money should also be*
sent to these gentlemen.
