VERMONT REGIMENT ON ITS MARCH,
--Of their passage through Albany the
Atlas s Argus says:
4 regiment Of Vermont volunteers
passed down the Hudson River Railroad
in the $40 train from Troy last nj .ht.-
They are by far the finest troops we have
yet seen among the volunteers from any
State. They look fit for service.
Every man in the ranks is "every inch
a man, aud not one of them, from the
Colonel down TO the last man in the rear
column, but seems fully capable of M
holding the fighting reputation OF Molly
Stark State. The Green Mountain
Boys will be heard from down South"
How they were received in New York.
the Worlds reporter says
" The appearance of the first regiment
from the Green Mountain State Is such
as to elicit the most cordial commenda-
ton Of all who have seen them. They
are a rugged, vigorous, powerful body OF
men, to whom the hardships of camn-
life will be little less than pasdme. Ia
the ranks are about one hundred COLLEGE
graduatss, and many OF the members are
gentlemen OF wealth and the highest re-
spectability of Vermont. There are, al /
SO, a large number of mechanics and far f.
mers in the regiment-men who are used /
to every possible hardship, and who win /
not be the first to faint or falter on the /
battle field. Every man in the regiment (
is said TO be a shot. At a trial of the /
new muskets by one Of the companies.
every man struck the target at a distance
IF twenty rods, and the officers say there
are not ten men in the regiment who
would miss it At that distance"

BLOODY WORK IN ST. LOUIS.

ST.. LOUIS, May -. The city saw an
other terrible tragedy last night. At
about six o'clock, a large body Of the
Home Guard entered the city through
Fifth street from the Arsenal, where they
had been enlisted during the day and fur
nished with arms. On reaching Walnut
street, large crowd lined the pavements
to witness their progress. At the corner
OF Fifth street, parties among spectators
began hooting, Kissing and otherwise abu-
sing the companies. A boy of fourteen
discharged a pistol into the ranks; part
OF the rear company Immediately turned
and fired upon the crowd the whole col

Tennessee.

The State of Tennessee isundergo-
ing a fiery trial. The leading public
men are secesionists and traitors, yet She
has many noble patriots, and if the truth
was known it would probably be found
that the majority of the people are true
to the Union. But the state is seeming
! ly irresistably gravitating into rebellion.
A letter from that state, published in the
New York Times says:
Governor Harris has again called the
Legislature together. After such a dem
onstration as he bad of the Union ele-
ment in this state, by a majority Of sew
enty thousand, refusing to call Conyen-
ton, be has now got the Legislature 10
secret session, plotting TO hurry this state
out of the Union. The great masses
of the people in East Tennessee are
burning with indignation toward the Gov
ernor and his secession crew. We feel
confident here that should the question

lure will pass the ordinance Of secession
without submitting it TO tie people also

down bv military despotism. Should the
Governor succeed in this rlot. II would
be an usurparioD Of power without par
aIIaI in The history Of fhp world
The present Legislature does not re.
fleet the will Of the people. The seces-
sion party, by publishing false reDorts
and bysendinc forth sensation DISPATCHES
have tried to fire up the people against
the Government. and make il appesr bv
a great deal Of clustering. that the 9eo-
pie we're rapidly turning over TO seces-
sion. They publish TO us that Middle
Tennessee and West Tennessee have
both rushed over. The same kind of lie,
they told previous to the last election
We didn't believe them then, and we do .
not believe them now. I'm the cities and /
Villages many have turned, butlhe coun-
try people, we believe, are firm.

The shower Of balls for few minutes
was terrible, the bullets flying in every
direction, entering doors, windows, and

even smashing bricks in the third story.
The utmost confusion and CONSERVATION

Immense crowds Of people filled the
