SUNDAY AT THE ENcAMpMENr.-We
learn from the Rutland Herald that in.
teresting religious services were held at
the cncampment on Sunday. The services
opened with a sacred piece of music by
the Woodstock Band after which an an.
propriate prayer was offered by the Chap.
lain, the Rev. Levi H. Stone. Then fol.
lowed the reading of the second chapter
of Nehemiah, and few brief and elO.
quent remarks. The services were con-.
tinucd by singing two verses of patriotic
hymn, in which the whole Regiment
joined, and closed by bencdiction BY
the Chaplain.
"a" The First Vermont Regiment will
be mustered for inspection by Lieut.. COL
Rains, beyond question, at Rutland, in
a day or two.
The Free Press of last evening is in
formed that the Secretary of war has no
titled Gov. Fairbanks that there is no i'm
mediate need of troops, and has requested
him not to send forward the Vermont
quota at present
The regiment will therefore probably
remain in camp at Rutland for some time
yet.-Burlington Times, Sth.
A SPUNKY YoUTH.--One robust young
man walked from Island Pond to enlist in
the Charleston Company. Captain Rich
ards, on ascertaining that the applicant
was not quite eighteen years old, express
ed some hesitation about receiving him.
The noble lads eyes instantly filled with
tears of disappointment. The Captain
seeing his spirit said, "I'll take you"
and he Immediately took his place in the
ranks.-Independem Standard
GENUINE PLUoK.--On Monday man
from Fairfield offered his services to the
Ransom Guards, and on being told that
the company was full, he said, Cant

to be soldier and have an opportunity
to fight Southern rebels.--.S Adams
Messenger
syr A Swanton friend writes us that
Rev. VIM. A. Miller of Charleston s. G.,
gave very interesting lecture at that
place on Tuesday last. Mr.. M. has been
a resident of Charleston since October
last, and would give reliable account of
matters and things as they have trans
pired since the secession war began. He
left on the 18th of April, the night after
the surrender of Fort Sumter---the people
being perfectly wild with excitement after
getting possession Of the Fort. and were
madly through the city no longer
in possession of any judgment or self.con-
troll. Ef u
During Mr.. Miller's stay at the South,
he says, the condition of the entire State
of S. Carolina was state of anarchy
and confusion, without any law or order,
and while his own patriotic feelings
burned for utterance, he was compelled to
suppress every word until he got back
where he was himself again -S. Adams
