4 Tribute TO the Vermont BOYS.

The Boston Daily Journal Of Wednesday,
under the head of "war ITEMS" pays the
Vermonters in the army on the Potomac the
following just tribute:
The Green Mountain boys have thus far
led the van, and We have no doubt that
when the tug of war comes the confidence
of the government in them will be fully JUS
titled. The descendants Of Ethan Allen and
his brave followers are not the men to finch
at sight of the foe To the Vermont Second
is allotted the honor of thus heading the
Union column. 1t is now occupying the adj
vance position at Lewinsyi.le, and expects
to keep it up all the way down to Manassas.
Every morning at o'clock SAYS the New
York Posts army correspondent, Gen Sniti! )
entire brigade is drawn up in battle array to
be in readiness for attack. That is the hour
out of the twenty-tour when attacks are
most likely to be made, and as this brigade
is in a very exposed position, it is at all
times ready for an attack. The hills near
LewinsvilIe will very soon be so fortified as
to make the position impregnable.'
