Tho Ninth Iscnin,rnt.

We received an interesting letter from
| Washington last week, ftoo late for inser
ton in our last issue) giving an account o.
the ninth regiment, the first to respond &c
the call for three hundred thousand. As
our readers already know, they were re,
ceived with konors and enthusiasm every
where on the route of their journey. They
were received in New York by the Sons Of
Vermont. At Philadelphia, they were re-
ceived by the Ladies Union Relief Society,
who gave the whole regiment warm sup
per, which the Green Mountain Boys keen
ly appreciated. They cheered the ladies',
and Capt. A. r. Sabin, and some others,
sung few appropriate pieces ON the occa-
sion, and grand happy time prevailed
Capt Sabin's musical qualities are well
known in Vermont, and we have no doubt
the Philadelphians were much pleased
The rebels will soon have chance to hear
his music, Which will doubtless be pitched
upon different key. His first note to them
viii be sharp, Immediately followed by a
flat on the part Of the rebels.
Under date Of July 25th, our correspond
ent writes that the regiment had gone into
camp at Clouds Mills, but want their mail
sent to Alexandria, Va, from which place
they win get it. Their location is only
about three miles from the battle field of
Bull Run. Col. Stannard, who was in that
battle with the Vermont I'd, is very popular
with the regiment, and his intimate acquaint-
ance with the locality in which they are
now encamped, gives him many advanta-
yes. He devotes his whole time and atten-
ton TO his regiment, constantly looking after
their welfare. The whole regiment is drill
led, and they drill by companies and squads.
Our correspondent estimates the amount of
force at that place, and as his chance of OBJ
servation has been so good, it is very likely
near the truth. We do not of course give
his figures, as they might prove contraband.
He says, "The country looks hard. Moth
ing planted or sowed fences all gone
whole fields once well cultivated, and good
productive farms, are now totally neglected,
and cattle, horses, sheep, &c, are roaming
about at random. Had they the tools, our
army might cut considerable hay in some
places"
No regiment has ever gone out under
more favorable auspices than the 9th, and,
ike all the rest of the brave men who have
eft our State, they win no doubt give
good account of themselves.
P. S. Since the above was written, the
Ninth has been ordered to Winchester TO
Gen. Pope. Good We will
risk them there, some Of the best fighting
anil certainly the most successful, was done
at Fort Donelson, by Illinois regiments
which had not been out Of the State fort
night.

A NEW CAUSE FOR GRATIruDE TO

could easily endure the taunts of the men,
but that he had never before realized what
and how terrible was the singing hate of

lief, and he had come back with one addi-
tional mercy for which to thank God that

A word TO the 1yo,ncn Of Vermont

The Women and Children of Vermont
would ike to do something to evince theil
patriotism. and show that their hearts are
enlisted in this awful conflict.
We cannot employ our hands TO war
or our fingers to fight" but we can use
them, to gather up the fruits Of the earth,
which our Heavenly Father is so plentiful
~ providing.
Let US see TO it, that the berries, cur
rants, cherries, plums and apples are all
dried, so that we may haze supply for all
our sick and wounded soldiers.
The children who are scattered about OH
our hill-sides can do much towards the good
work.
Those Of US who live in villages, can buy
berries which poor children bring to our
doors, and willie we thus encourage them in
industry, we may be securing comforts to
husbands, sons and brothers, who are sacri-
ficing their HreS on the Altar Of Liberty.

MORE ExAsPERAT1oN.-" Our men,
writes surgeon connected with the 52a
regiment Indiana Volunteers, have killed
many bloodhounds, valued at 800 apiece.
These dogs, kept to hunt runaway negroes,
were put after some Of our men, and hence
their slaughter"
Is it policy" to kill an animal so valua-
bic to the Southern gentleman to keep his
slave in order? Win not such ruthless
conduct as this farther exasperate the
South ? Who can doubt that BY such i'm.
prudent acts as these our Southern breth-
rem are rendered more and more unanimous.

CHARAoTERIsTIo.-As some twenty
five Presidential borers were waiting in the
anieroom of the White House on Thursday
morning, for an interview with his excellen-
cy, Mr.. Lincoln came out of his room, fol.
lowing man who had been with him for
some time, and said:
Gentlemen: | want to make you little
speech. ii every one of you who is admit
ted TO see me stay so long, | can see but
few of you in a day. advise you, there
fore, when you are admitted, TO make vour

country should be lost.
Mr.. G, then compared the soldier Of to-
day with the soldier Of revolutionary times,
and showed that the hsrdships and sacrifices
eow were nothing in comparison to theirs.
They fought as it were with halter around
their nelks, with sure death in prospect it
defeated, and urged his hearers to show as
much spirit in defending as they did in
achieving our independence. He said his
heart was ia The work; it was his cause and
the cause of the whole country"

further, he knows "no human institution too

War Meeting mt acknowledgement
OF Scs:stor Foot,

There was a great war meeting at Rut
land on Tuesday, 1t which Senator Foo
presided. and made truly national and pat
riotic speech, from which we make the fol
lowing extract, as reported in the Rutland
Heroid:-
"We must deal direct, hard blows at the
seat Of the rebellion. KindaeSs 10 traitors
is death to loyal men. 1t must be stopped
right here, and ii viii stop here. There
will be no more gentle blows. The prop
erty of the rebels win be seized every
where and confscated 10 the use of the
government. The slaves Of rebels are 10
be employed by the government in whatever
manner, and in whatever relation, they shall
be of the most service to us, and their free.
dom aoiH be granted 10 them as tie REGARD Of
their toyaay. Does some one ask VIII
You put arms into the hands Of the slaves Z"
He was ready TO answer to his conscience
and TO the enlightened Judgment of mankind,
to the loyal people especially of these
States, that he would not hesitate to put
arms into the hands of every loyal man, be
he black or white, bond or free, whenever
he deemed it necessary for the preservation
Of the government. If your house was on
fire, would you reject the services of man
who offers to assist in passing the buckets
because his skin was black? IF any one
in such an hour Of danger would turn up
his delicate aristocratic nose at the brawny
black, and object TO his being received into
the lines, he would drive him out and com
pei him to yield his place to a better, if he
was blacker man, and he had not much
doubt as to which would be considered the
better Niger of the two
Our beautiful temple of liberty, which
was reared by the patriotic labors of our
iorefathers, is on fire. The incendiary has
rushed into its inner sanctuary and profan-
ed its sacred affairs. More than seven hun
lred millions Of dollars have already been
expended, more than one hundred tlous-
and loyal lives have been sacrificed. There
are millions Of men standing ready, willing
md anxious to come TO our aid and assist in |
he suppression OF the raging conAagraton
md save the temple. Shall we refuse and
purn the proffered aid? We ought long
'go TO have accepted it. This has come to
'e the sentiment Of loyal men of all polt-
cal parties in the loyal States, and Of the
majority Of loyal men in the rebellious
States. This is the belief of Senator
Wright, Douglas democrat, and of Sona-
or Rice, former Breckenridge democrat,
IS openly declared by them upon the floor
If the Senate. The rebels themselves make |
use Of their slaves against the government
n large numbers, and we should have no
aesitancy in making use of them ourselves.
Better they should be for us than against us.
Talk not to me, said Mr.. Foot, Of the
rights Of traitors. They have
no constitutional rights except 10 be hung
by the neck until they are dead, and the
sooner they reap the full fruiiion of that
right the better will it be for the country
