The KING GIFr-Louis XI., when young,
used to visit peasant whose garden produced
excellent fruit Soon after he ascended the
throne, this peasant waited on him with his
little present, turnip, the produce of his own
garden, of an extraordinary size. The King,
smiling, remembered the hours Of pleasure he
had passed with him, and ordered thousand
crowns to be given to him. The lord of the
village, hearing of his liberality, thought with
in himself" If this peasant gets thousand
crowns for u turnip, have only to present his
Majesty with handsome horse, and my for
tune is made" Arriving at court, he very
politely requested the Kings acceptance ofone.
Louis highly praised the steed, and the donors
expectations were raised to the utmost, when
the King exclaimed " Bring me my turnip p
and added, as he presented it to the noblemau
" there, this cost me thousand crowns, l. give
it to you in return for your horse"

10 Sergeant Major Cannon, of this village,
and Charles Harran, Of Berlin, both of whom
were wounded in the battle at Bulls Run on
Sunday, arrived home on SATURDAY night, hav-
ing each received furlongh of sixty days.
They were welcomed by the hearty cheers Of
a large concourse OF people who had assem-
bled at the Depot, to meet them. Harran
was wounded in the thigh, the ball passing
through the flesh but not injuring the bone.
Guinon was struck just above the left wrist
joint by Minnie ball. which he thinks must
have been very nearly spent, else his wound
would have been more severe. The ball
struck on the back of the wrist and passed a.
round the bone to the under side, where il
lodged, cutting off the cords so as to proba-
bly, disable his thumb and fore finger.
Maj. Guinon reports that the conduct of
the Vermont boys was brave and daring in
the extreme, thus confirming the reports that
had previously reached us. He says in rea-
to Col. Whiting, that at little after noon on
Sunday (the day of the batue) when the re-

Maine regiment within two miles Of Manas-

mand of the brigade ordered Col Whiting to
take his regiment to a field near by and in
connection with the Sd Maine take two of the
enemies batteries which were commanding
the field. Col. Whiting Immediately ordered
his regiment forward, and this Guinon says,
was the last seen Of Whiting with the regi-
ment until the order came to retreat.
The regiment il is said are much dissatisf-
ed with Writings conduct considering it as
eowardly in the highest degree. 1t was report
ed in Washington, Friday, that majority of
commissioned officers had requested him to
resign and that in all prc liability he would do
so.

Three more of the Vermont boys came in
this morning, to-vit; Harrison Dewey. Or
derby Sergeant, and privates s. l.. d. Good
ale and Edison Virgins, of Company E, tTun-
bridge, think. They became separated in
a side movement to avoid the line of fire Of
artillery. Their retreat was cut of six times
10y cavalry, forcing thom to take to the woods
to elude the pursuit. They have been over
three daya working their way in
saw Col. Whiting last evening and re-
ceived a very favorable account Of the conduct
of the men. He says none could have behav-
ed better. They were four hours and half
in the field of fire, and in direct engagement
half an hour. Il is true that their brigade
was sent in to cutoff the retreat of the enemy
at the extreme left, and that when they arriv-
ed at their posts the Federal troops were act
ually retreating, and our artillery passed, on
the retreat, by the Vermont regiment while
the latter was holding its post and engaging
the enemy. They held their position until or
dered to retreat, and then the regiment was
broken by part not hearing the order, re-
naming TO fire a few more SLOTS at the enc
my. ASIDE from that they retrcated in good
order, and in no indecent haste. They halted
at Centrevlle and retired to rest with no idea
of retreating, but in the night were ordered to
fall back first to Fairfax, and afterwards to
Alexandria.

We were asreeably surprised this morning
by finding the third Vermont regiment in the
city, and quartered within few steps of our
lodgings. The men are fine specimens of the
sturdy Green Mountain race, and moreover
they are in excellent spirits The Bull Run
affair (ah that ''run" was infinitely worse
than an Irish "bull." has served only to
make them more fierce for the fight. After
repeated unsuccessful trials, the consent of
the War Department for Capt Smith to Com
mand the Sd Vermont was obtained on Thurs
day evening. All right! l will add that
Gen Scott asked it as a favor to himself-
The Sd is therefore well Offered. as well as

JUIY 24,-Evening.
1t is thought noy that the dead and miss
ing of the Vermont regiment will be reduced
to twenty. A. d. Hodges Of the Castlcton
company, who was reported dead, has come
in to contradict the report. The city has
been in considerable disorder. by reason Of
the troops not knowing their new places Of
rendezvous; but to-day things are getting in
order again. -Four regiments have left to-day
for home, and some new regiments have come
in. We hear of large reinforcements on the
way.
