CAMP BAXTER, July II, '6l.

Mr.. EDITOR: Yesterday was an i'm
portant and interesting day to us. The
morning found us soldiers of the Green
Mountain State, the evening found us in
Unc.e Sans service. Long and faithful
ly had we waited for the eventful change.
Capt. Starr, of the U. S. Dragons, was
the officiating officer. At ten o'clock A.
NJ we formed in line of BATTLE the band
playing and the drums beating. Immc-
diately after, at the command, By compo-
n.y. right aoheel, MARCH, the battalion form
ed into column and passed in review, Cap
Starr being the reviewing officer, accom-
panied by Gov. Fairbanks, Gen. Baxter,
and Gen. Davis. Again we wheeled into
line, and then again into column, and
took the rear open order, preparatory to
inspection. Firstly came the inspection
of arms (frearms) and men. None were
inspected out the men having been pre-
viously examined by physician. After
inspection, the roll of each company was
called, a hollow square formed, and the
oath Of allegiance administered, the men
uncovering their heads and holding up
their right hands. Two only, refused to
take the oath; one from Company A, and
one from Company E, from Lamoille,
Calvin W. H. Smith, by name. Such in
dignation as was manifested by the regi-
ment generally, and the above named
company in particular, when the two
coacards took their position in the center
of the square, | never witnessed. Pandc-
monium seemed to be let loose. Howls,
Kisses, groans, screeches, yells, hootings
in fine, all noises that the human organs
of speech are capable of making, were
showered upon them. The band discoursed
anything but harmonious sounds for their
special benefit. Smith received this in
junction from his Captain: Don't yoa
ever return to LanoiNe! !" The mlscre-
ants were then stripped of their uniforms,
and everything else given to them as SOL
diers, placed between two ranks of SOL
diers armed with guns, bayonets fixed,
which were provokingly near them, both
front and rear, marched twice the whole
length of the regiment formed in line of
battle, when they were again saluted with
Misses. groans, and tobacco guilds, then
drummcd out of camp, the band playing
the Rogue's March. regret exceedingly
that the gallant people of Lamoille have
been thus disgraced, but the fault is not
theirs. Those who do 60 to do battle,
will do their duty, their VIII dc duty, and
show that they are the true sons of Spun
ky Lamoille" Our guns are all we could
wish. Our Colonel is not yet appointed
We expect to leave next week. Our sick
list is quite large, but all seem to be doing
we'll. The measles seem to be the prevail
ing disease. A. ). b.

A letter from G. A. Reed, one of Co. E,
from this place, has the following:
All were willing to take the oath ex-
cept IL, who stepped forward, amid the
Kisses and groans Of the regiment, and
declared that they would not swear allie
glance to the Government. Ten of them
were persuaded at last to take the oath,
and took their places in the ranks, amid
the cheering of the regiment. o @ "
There are about so of the regiment sick
with the measles, and more cases every
day. There is some talk that the regi-
ment will start for Washington the first
of next week. The boys are all in good
spirits, and in hurry to start south,
where they can have chance to fight the
rebels.

SEWING MACHINE !!

This little machine is made with special refer
L ence to the wants of a family. There is no
complicated machinery to get out of order or per-
pick the operator. Any one can understand and
use it with perfect success, doing all kinds of
work from the finest muslin to the coarsest IA
brio 1t gives the best of satisfaction where it
has been introduced. No family will do without
one after having become acquainted with their
real working merit
An almost incredible number of commenda-
tions have been received unsolicited from parties
who have used this little Machine. In the vicin-
ty of its manufacture, it has reputation which
cannot be gansayed 1t is a universal saying
that it has only to be seen to be approved.
The Wurtemburg Chamber of Commerce, wish
ing to introduce into Germany, the best cheap
Machine they could find, sent to this country and
purchased one of the New England Family Sew
ing Machines together with several others of diff
ferent make, saying that the success to it ''wil
entirely depend on the really good qualities and
practical utility of the article which before all
must undergo a strict but fair trial. After the
trial DR.. Won Steinbeis, President of the Cham
Der, wrote us the following letter, together with
an order for a number of machines which has
been several times repeated.

Mr. CHA's RAYMOND, Sir:-Your Sewing Ma

believe that in consequence of its superiority it
will be generally adopted in this country as soon
as it is better known We have the honor to
sign ourself

without adding long list of names of people
who have used, and admired the machine, the
public are invited to examine for themselves.

The daily exchange. [volume] (Baltimore, Md.) 1858-1861, 1861-09-14

We publish elsewhere, the correspondence
which has recently taken place between Major
General DIX and Mayor BRowN. The first portion
of it has been already given TO the public. There
has been some difference of opinion in regard to
the propriety of the conclusions reached by
Mr.. Brown in his letter dated the 9Th of Septem
Der. For ourselves, knowing how cons;ientiousy
he has ever acted, and the serious compli-
cations that might have resulted had he re-
fused TO obey the order of the Federal authorities,
we simply expressed a regret ''that he had
''not taken somewhat different view of the
"matter." We were convinced that no conces.
| sions on his part would change the programme al
ready resolved upon. Against Government de-
termined 10 obtain control over our municipal af
fairs, and malignant and INSCRIPTIONS party
eager TO be reinstaled in those Offices from which
its most prominent members, STEPPED in corrur-
ton, had been Indignantly expelled, his honesty
of purpose and uprightness OF character were but
frail defences The result has but confirmed ouI
previous convictions. He dared to do what he
conceived to be his duty. His summary arrest and
imprisonment followed-as a matter of course
The daily exchange. [volume] (Baltimore, Md.) 1858-1861, 1861-09-14

We have noticed that several of the Northern
journals have very frequently of late repeated the
threat that Baltimore is, in certain contingencies,
to be bombarded by the Federal troops We
have even observed that the correspondents of
some of our own papers have held over the heads
of their opponents here this same diabolical
menace We are gravely told that not only in
case Of an insurrection here would the city be
inevitably destroyed, but that similar measure
would be resorted to, if there was any danger of
the occupation of Baltimore by the Confederate
army. How any man in Maryland could permit
himself to believe in the possibility of such an
iniquity, without blushing for the cause lie was
advocating, or how any decent Journal in this
city could suffer such suggestion to be made
through its columns, we are at a loss to compre-
bend If Baltimore was held by a regular garri-
son, or if its own citizens were in arms 10 resist
the advance of an approaching army, the latter
would, of course, be justified in taking possession
of the city at every hazard; and if the town
suffered from a bombardment which WAS
directed against its armed deences, it
would be compelled to regard such a ca
lamity as of the ordinary consequences
of war. But we venture TO say that the his
tory of the last half century furnishes no instance
in which the civilized world has ever regarded
otherwise than with horror, the destruction of a
populous city under circumstances such as are
supposed by some fanatica scribbers sufficient to
warrant the demolition of Baltimore. Many able
writers have doubted whether the usages of civil
lied war justified the Russians in burning their
own capital TO prevent it from falling into the
r. Al. ..l.zIa
have execrated NAPOLEON if he had RACED Paris TO
the ground, in order TO preclude its capture by the
Allies. Suppose the Austrian Emperor had burned
Vienna when the Hungarians approached it some
twelve years ago, or the King OF Naples had blown
mp that capital before he fed from it q short time
since, would not the citizens of every civilized
country on earth have denounced the brutality of
those oe'esed rners2 Who but barbarians
ever dreamed Of DESTROYING cities because
they could not hold them, and of thus
involving the property of innocent and emil
ty, combatant and non-combatant women
and children in one vortex of useless and indis
criminate ruin? Our readers may, perbaps re
member the universal Indignation which over
whelmed Lord DUNMoRE, when he ventured to
wreak his savage vengeance on Norfolk, in l776
That town was then in possession of the Ameri-
cans, and DUNMoRE could not and did not expect
to retake 1t, but he determined TO punish its in
habitants. He, therefore, ordered cannonade to
be opened on the place, from his ships and, after
it had lasted for some hours he sent some boats
crews ashore to set fire TO the houses The town
was utterly destroyed; but Lord DUNMoRE, even.
was dissatisfied with himself when he reflected ON
the act, "On second thought the historian tells

WASHINGTON, who was little apt 10 be unjust, even
to his enemies, was, when he heard of the pro-
ceeding, filled with grief and anger He said:
II hope this, and the threatened devastation of
''other places, will unite ;he whole country in one
"indissoluble band against nation which seems
'lost to every sense Of virtue, and those feelings
(which distinguish a civilized people from the
'most barbarous savages." Such were the sent-
ments with which men everywhere regarded the
wanton destruction of a comparatively insignif-
cant town eighty-fve years ago. With what
feelings they would hear of the demolition of a
city like Baltimore, IN this century, may be better
imagined than described. The very suggestion
is an infamous one, and those who are so con-

AFFAIRS ACROSS THE CHAIN FRIDGE.
CAMP ADVANCE, Sept. l2.-The body Of poor
0ods, OF Company ID, 10Th Indiana regiment, who
was killed in the skirmish near LawinsyiIle was
brought in this morning by a detachment of the Sd
Vermont regiment, who went out to the battle
ground to look for some of their own missing He
had evidently died instantly from bullet wound
through the head. The Confederates had taken the
shoes from the corpse, empied the pockets and cut
every button from the uniform. The latter they
may have taken for relics but the shoes must have
been taken for use, and the fact indicates that thew
must be sadly in want of leather. The body OF
GODS was laid out upon the ground in the Indiana
encampment, for some time, and afterwards was
buried in romantic glen near the camp.
A soldier OF the same regiment, named Daniel
Ward who was carried over the Little Falls and
drowned while bathing on Monday, was buried at
the same point.
From all accounts men behaved with the
greatest GOODNESS and bravery in the action near
townsville. While the enemy was pouring in a
sharp fire from his ambush, Lieut.. Hancock and
three others OF Company |, 18th Indiana regiment
started out to ascertain, il possible where the enc
my concealed, and followed Nh their mission
to that hazardous length that they were cut off by
the Contederates. The only indication of perrin.
baton through the affair was with two companies
OF the ermont troops when a shell burst sudden.
y in their midst, and who were naturally sqeetIq
asonished," but they formed immediately into line
again, and afterwards took the compliments of the
enemy with the GOODNESS of veterans.
The picturesque surroundings of this place are
noted by all lovers of fine scenery amongst our
troops. An object of interest in this neighborhood
too, is the famous duelling ground where CLAY ant
| Randolph met. Before the arrival of the troop;
the point was designated by a narrow opening
amongst the trees, the ground being softly carpet
| ed with the elastic needles of the pine. Now the
place is not so easily recognized, the trees there
about for long distance having been laid level will
| the ground by the axes of thousands of hardy sol
diers. Just beyond here, the road to Levin
| vile, is the house of the lndia-rubber man. Good
rich, and yet further the same road, is Prospec
Hill, the seat Of Conn., APP Catesby Jones.
The health of the troops hereabout is remarkably
| good, and especially in consideration of the fac
| that they are unacclimaed here.
| CONFEDERATE BATTERIES on THE POTOMAC.
Richmond papers state that batteries are being
| erected ut the White House, below Washington
| under direction of ex- Commander buchanan, /,
stop the navi gaton Of the Potomac.
Ex-Commander Buchanan was stationed at th,
ashiDgton-Navy Yard at the time the difficulties
commenced. and resigned his place. Latterly i
has been understood that he had been assisting the
Coniederates in that section, so that the news O
his movements III the vicinity of the White HOUSE
is not surprising here.
