We paid hasty visit to the United States
Arsenal to day, and found everything there
wea1s an aspect of unusual actiyity. The
workshops now employ two hundred men,
and others will be taken In Is fast IS, circum.
stances will admit. Our readers can form NO
Idea OF the system prevailing in tIiese estah-
Ishmente, or tile amount Of work, they turn
out. A. On instance Of what they can do
when they try, we may state that on Fridn7
last an order Was received from Gen. Scott for
three hundred cavalry holsters of the usual
army pattern. The leather Vas purchased tha
same day, and that evening they we're skipped
to their destination. The force now employed
will turn out three hundred horae sets aud
five thousand accoutremente, &c., per month,
besides rifiag sixty muskets per day, and PER.
forming vast amount of othtr labor, Into tha
details Of which we deem 1t unnecessary now
to enter: Large ~ are The capabilities Of tee
shops, they are likely to have their capacity
tested for some time to come. Orders tor ac-
cout1ements, &c are being every day received,
and those ten thousand odd muskets noticed
elsewhere must be riAed forthwith. The fol.
lowing list Of ordnance, ammunition, &C., ut
the arsenal now, will be OF use 'as showing the
resources Of the arsenal In case the host.litles
commenced at Charleston should LEAD to q

VERMONT HISTORICAL SOCIETY.

The approaching special meeting of the
Vermont Historical Society, to be held in
Burlington on the 4th "Wednesday THE 23d)
Of this month, promises to be one of unusual
interest, 1t is expected that the principal
paper of the occasion, will be one on the Bat
Tie of Bennington, by Henry W. Dawson. of
Morrisania, N. Y, author of The Battles of
the United States, by Sea and Land, AN
elaborate illustrated work, which many of our
readers may have seen.
We understand that Mr.. Dawson has OBJ
tanned from foreign sources the official report
of the Battle by the German officers, and has.
also, had access to interesting unpublished
concerning the battle, which will
give an uncommon value and interest to his
paper
Biographical notices of distinguished ciliz-
ems of Vermont recently deeeased-among
which will be one on Ex-Gov. Robinson, by
Ex-Gov. Hall one on Hon. f. f. Merrill,
By Rev. w. II. Lord, and one on Charles G..
Eastman, by Rev. f. w. Shelton, of Mont
pelier-will also be presented and other in
teresting papers and topics of discussion will
be brought forward, - Free Press.
Vermont watchman and State journal. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1836-1883, 1861-01-18

But the removal of which we now speak is
entirely arbitrary. and at the will of the Sec
rotary Of War He has this power of remov-
al from one place of deposit TO another in or
der that the United States troops may be
more readily supplied ia case of emergency.
No other honest purpose would Justify the
expense of such a removal from an arsenal
where there is no danger to points where
treason or negro instruction might make
them positively dangerous to the peace of the
country and where in fact there were no
United States troops, not even enough to
protect them from decay. What became of
the $4,000 deposited in Charleston we have
already seen. They are as carefully guarded
as the $50, 600 bonds in the treasury; and
we shall have just as good an account of
them
1t will be seen, then, that from the Spring
field armory alone there have been sent to
the points where treason had made its APP
pointments $4,000 muskets; and not one
single musket to any United States arsenal
in Northern State. cxetpt 10000 to New
York. But what ofNew York These like
those from Troy, were not to remain in New
York, but are sold to the traitors for the pal
try sum of $3.50 each If anything was
needed to arouse our people to the frightful
treachery over which they have been sleeping,
let them ponder on this statement
We have only disclosed whai have been
done by the war department at the SPRING
field armory. We have no means of access
TO the facts connected with Harpers Ferry.
But arms are not in the habit of coming
North Will some of our Senators or Rep
resentatives inquire?
The Republican Of a later date says that
10000 guns still remain in the armory there,
and better description Of weapon than those
sent away. The guns of the latest model,
with Maynard primers, afe-t taken up for the
militia of the several States, North and South,
as fast as they can be made.
