BRArELEBoRo..-Rev Mr.. TYLER Of
Brattleborc, delivered very strong dis.
course on the war and slavery, on Thanks
giving day. He thought the cuase of our
troubles should be wiped out, though he did
not expect slavery would all be annihIaied
at once. He presumed it would perhaps
continue after the war, but it would need
great care to preserve it, and il would be
no enviable fame for those who might act
as wet nurse 10 it. Capt Brown, of
Go. F., 4ih Vermont regiment, spent
Thanksgiving at home. He has been sick
for some time, but has now again returned
TO duty. LIEUT.. Hobrook, son of the Gov
elnor, is acting Adjutant of the 4lh, in
place of Adjutant Stoughton, who has had
other duties assigned him temporarily.
: Gov. Holbrook has established his head
quarters at the Bra,Ileboro House, the
large amount Of business rendering such an
arrangement necessary. On SAtur-
day last, Thomas Manning was arrested on
charge of having burnt his own barn, and
the evidence was so strong that he was
bound up for trial at the county court next
April. Ii appears that he had some hay
and grain in the barn. which had been at
taeled and sold contrary to his wishes, but
not removed. On Monday evening
The annual village meeting was held at the
