Mr. LINCOLN At WASHINGTON.-Al! parties
IN their communications from Washington
including that bitter antl-republican print.the
New York Hprald-concur in representing
that Mr. Lincoln is winning golden opinions
from all sorts OF men since lis arrival there.
We looked for brilliant ovations for him in
his Journey from Springfield to Washington,
for it is a fact not TO be controversial that no
man has arisen since the days of Washing
ton, or Gen Jackson at the time he denounc-
ed so boldly the secession traitors of the
South, who has had centred in himself so
deeply the affections of the friends of the
constitution and the laws-or in other words,
the friends and uphoiders of the Union, as
Mr. Lincoln but we hardly ventured to
dream that leading men from the border
states. who eXerted their utmost powers to
defeat him in the election, would have greet
ed him with so much confidence and appar-
emily sincere kindness, as they manifestly do.
He is looked upon as the man for the times
-as one firm in purpose. sincere in his con-
victions, honest and capable, and friend of
his whole country We trust that he may
find himself surrounded by men, who with
patience and unbending integrity, will coop
e.ate with him in endeavors to deliver, as
speedily as possible, the country from its
present degradation.

Capt PETER I. WAsHBURN, .Str:-I have
the pleasure of acknowledging the receipt of
your letter of the 18th instant, communicate
ing the patriotic response OF your company
to General Order No 10. Patriotism is de-
fined to be "the characteristic of good citi-
zen,-the noblest passion that animateS a
man in the character OF a citizen" The his
tory of Vermont early developed this element
In the character of her citizens, and it is graf
flying to see, in this response of your gallant
company, that the spirit of Allen and Warren
still lives in the hearts and actuatcs the will
of Eermonters. 1t is devoutly to be hoped
that the wicked conspiracy which threatens
the overthrow of our government, and the
of our happy Union, may be
ioled, without resort to arms; but should
the conflict come, feel assured that, in our
countrys peril, Vermont, ever loyal to the
Union, will nobly heed her country's call.

Your ob't servant,

charge OF the arrangements for the Journey
OF vice president Hamlin from this city -
Washington, that great courtesy was displar-
Gu toward Mr. Hamlin and his friends along

were provided on all the railroads. and free
passes furnished. At New York they were
the guests of the city, and were treated in
very handsome manner. The attentions be

~ The papers down the river are max
ing some sport CT the valiant conduct OF a
certain captain of military company at
bradford. 1t appears that the Executive of
the state. through the proper military depart
n.cnt. issued an order inviting the organized
militia of the state to set their house in order
preparatory to any demand arising from the
exigencies O: the times. that might be made
upon them. AID which they assumed, by or
ganizins under the laws of the state. The
captain assembled his company and delivered
10 them speech adverse to compliance
with the order. and finally persuaded ma
orty of the company to assume before the
public an attitude of disloyalty, if not of ac-
tual ccwardice. We 90 in for excusing the
captain ard his followers from any actual SER
vice Their example in an emergency, might
be disastrous. Vermont should send no men
fox the defence of the country who would be
likely to receive wounds in the back. 1t
would be altogether out Of character for Yer
mont to do any such thing. Old Ethan S
bones would surely make themselves visible
upon the occurrence of such an event. Of
course the courageous captain and his val
iants will surrender their arms to the state,
and should they not conclude to betak4 bem-
selves, as did others like them in l717j, to
Nova Scotia. they will retire to private life.

New Hampshire.

The annual election in this state occurs on
The second Tuesday in March. The republic
cans support lion n. S. Berry of Hebron,
for governor. Gilman Marston of Exeter, L.
NJ. Edwards of keene and f. II. Rollins of
Concord, are the republican nominees for
Congress. The two former now hold seats
in Congress. and the latter is a new man to
take the place of Mr. Tappan, whose term ex-
pires with the present Congress. We indulge
in no apprehensions as to the result of the
election in the Granite state, although It is
evident the democrats are disposed to seize
upon passing national events to regain, if
possible, their lost power. In the second
Congressional district John H. George was
formally nominated by them for Congress-
Gle 1rge is an old staser. and politician of
the most ultra character. He afterwards de-
clined and Judge Bell of Manchester, was
put in nonlinatian by the same party and
for the same place. Mr. Bell has for some
time been upon the bench, and consequently
somewhat removed from an active palticipa-
ton in the more recent exciting political con-
tests. He is nevertheless no less a democrat
than George. but his party evidently entered
into this maneuvre tor the purpose of de-
teating Mr. Rollins. This is apparent from
the manner in which they conduct the can
vass. They aver,hat they are ready to "sink
party and cal! upon the freemen Of the dis
trct to "rise above party" and support MIR
Bell. We think the freemen will heed the
call. We think they will "rise" and "sink'
the democracy as deeply as they desire by
giving Mr. Rollins triumphant election.
