THE SECOND VERMONT REGIMENT
IN NEW YORK.

This Regiment arrived in New York city
at about half past six o'clock on Tuesday
morning by the Hudson River cars. They
were received at the depot by the sons of
Vermont, and escorted to the Park Barracks,
where they took breakfast At o'clock the
Regiment marched before the City Hall, and
the beautiful Regimental flag, of which we
have heretofore given some account, was
presented to the Regiment by the sons of
Vermont. The flag bore a stays head over
the State arms and the motto Freedom and
Unity" After prayer by Rev. Mr. Parmelee,
Judge Culver was introduced and spoke
Col. Whiting then briefly responded, return
ing thanks for the flag and assuring the do

had taken up arms, not for the sake of bust
ness, but Prom connections of duty to their
country
Some of the ladies in the balcony threw
dowhs6oquets which were received by the
Colonel with a silent bow.
Ex-Gov Hall, then made some remarks to
the Sons Of Vermont, thanking them for the
kind reception they had given the Regiment
after which, Senator Foot took the stand

Cheers were given by the Regiment for the
different speakers, and it soon after started
on its way to the Jersey City ferry, and on
arriving, crossed over, and took the cars for
Washington.

PEACE PROPOSITIONS.

On the eve of the meeting of the extra
session of Congress, it is not strange that the
"M onseur Tonson" of peace and 'compro-
mise" should again come upon us; and we
are therefore not surprised, at the present
time, to see the attempt made, on the part of
certain weak backed and weak kneed patriots,
to draw attention from the present clarion
note of war by the softer breathings of the
lutte of peace.
Within the past ten days new plan of
attack has been made upon the serried ranks
of the North-not only with reference to
those in the feld-but upon those who sus-
tain them at homeland SO cunningly devised
and SO subtle have been these plans that
the following questions are already rife
among us: Are we to have an unexp ected
peace! Are we to be called upon to enter
tam new proposition for compromise; are
we to submit to further postponement of
the settlement Of the questions which have so
long agitated the country-or are we, like
men, to stand boldly upon our rights, and
fight our way out of the present difficulties
which our secession friends have brought
upon us? The best answer we can make to
the above inquiries is to state the fact plainly
that secessionism is an animal of many horns
mind the gender of the brute-but if femi-
nine she is subtle-and if masculine then he
is bold and daring.-But subtle or bold, as
the leaders of the secession movement NAV
be, we have no doubt of the power of the
North to check or circumVent them at will
They may tell us through the New York
World, by a cunning artifce, that jeff Da-
Wis wants peace, and that Mr. Seward is not
aVerse to the same. They may allude to the
magnificent proposition which Mr.. Critten-
den is to make in the opening Congress that
peace may again overshad0w the land and
in all these connections they may talk of SO 80
as the rate of duty on captive Mortimer;
they may erect new batteries of defence, or
offence; they may reiterate their superiority
over US and continue their boast of cavalier
ancestry, but the reply of the North to all
Inlo VIII NC III the language OF DANIEL: am
for peace, but when speak, they are for war"
1t is now too late for the South to talk OF
peace, unless they are prepared to make an
entire surrender to the legitimate rule of the
government. Peace, on any other terms,
would not be acceptable to the North and on
no other terms, will they accept it, Let Sen
ators and Congressman make a note of this
fact and govern themselves accordingly.

THE THIRD REGIMENT.

The uniforms of this reg ent will not, it
is thought, be supplied by Quarter Master
General Davis, until the companies are mus
tered and sworn into the service.
The Post Office recently established at
Camp Baxter, for the accommodation Of the
regiment, seems to be doing thriving bust
ness. Within the q hours, ending Monday
night, over three hundred letters, and papers
in proportion, had been sent from the office.
Five ofthe members of the ST. Adams COM
pany have been discharged for insubordina-
ton. Their names are VIM. Harrington,
Ccorporal,) Leighton S. Day, Clement Mitch
ell. Peter Tebo and Oliver Fortune. The
conduct of these men met the marked disap
probation Of the rest of the company, both
officers and men, and especially the Captain
(House) who is not only an excellent officer,
but a gentleman in every sense Of the word.
Capt Spaulding, of Proctorsville, an old
soldier of the United States army, who has
served in Florida and other parts of the South,
acts as drill master at Camp Baxter, for the
time being.
The following appointments have been
made;
Lieutenant Colonel-B. N. Hyde, of Hyde
Park.
Adjutant-A. P. Blunt, of St. Johnsbury
Surgeon-Henry james, of Waterbury.
Quartermaster-Redfeld Proctor, of Cav
endish, vice Baxter, resigned on account OF
severe sickness.

SECESSION FLAGs.-Col. Duryee has for
warded to the Chamber of Commerce for ex-
hibition, two secession flags, which were cap
tured from the rebels near Norfolk last
week, One flag is eight by thirteen feet,
with the motto, "!Sic .Iemper Tyrannis." The
other flag has three stripes and eight stars.
Such was the hurry to use the latter by the
rebel troops that a needle and thread were
left in one of the stars.

STRAwBERRIEs.-Wea are indebted to z.
Martindale, Esq, of Wallingford, for small
box of magnificent garden Strawberries
They are of excellent flavor, and as to size
we have seen none to compare with them for
long time. Altogether they form speci-
men which any one might be proud to ex-
hibit and which it is pleasant to look upon
and still pleasanter to taste.
