MONUMENT TO VIRGINIA SoLDIERs.-The
Pennsylvania Dragons, Capt. &. Thompson
Jones, OF Roxborough, Pa, intend laying the
cornerstone ot Il monument on the .2d OF Feb
rpary, TO mark the spot where seven men, be-
longing TO a company of Virginia Troopers,
during the time Washington WAS at Valley
Forge, Were buried. The Philadelphia Ledger
saysit appears that at that time the Firginians
were stationed on the farm ot Adam w cod, on
the Wissahickon. now owned by the heirs OF
Samuel Leyerng; ana while sleeping in the
house and barn attached, they were surprised
by company Of British Dragons stationed
in Philadelphia, they having been led by Il cir
cuitous ronte, by tory well acquainted with
this section OF the country. The surprise was
complete, and seven of the Virginia company
were killed, and afterwards buried in lot on
the farm of Andrew Wood, which is between
the turnpike and the Wissahickon. A boy, six
years OF age, named Barndoliar, was present at
the funeral. and he is now resident OF the
neigh borhood. Nearly al the money for the
building of the monument has already been
raised, and in short time after the laying of
The cornerstone ii will be cree led.

SMALLPOX AND NACCINArIoN.-The Boston
Journal condenses the following facts from
various authorities, directing the attention OF
the public 10 the necessity for general vaccina-
ton:
!, Infants should be vaccinated without fail,
between The sixth week NId The fourth month
of their age
y Every one should be reyaccinated, par
tcularly those between fifteen and thirty five
wears of age, who were first yaccinated in
childhood. This is especially desirable dur
inr euidemics; and the rule holds good even
" her the disease may have been taken.
q. In general, without regard to special sea-
sons of danger, vaccination should be prac-
ticed at least once in fourteen years, and bet
ter still. once in seven or eight years.
The prejudice against taking other dis
a.s.s with the vaccine matter is almost entire
Iv destitute Of foundation, where care is taken
by physicians to take their matter from heal
tRy ,atients. Nor does the condition of the
nersnn from whom the matter is taken mate
