Gen. MISUNDERSTANDING eve, we were
at Camp Wayne, and witnessed the dress pa
radc Of the Goth. This is the first time we
have witnessed the military movements of the
ooth, and we must say that we have never seen
any Regiment surpass it in evoutions. At the
close OF the exercises, Gen. Sol. Meredith being
present, was introduced to the officers and SOL
diers of the Goth, by Col. Bennett, when the
General made brief and pertinent speech He
remarked that he was well acquainted with both
officers and soldiers Of the regiment-knew
their parentsand knew their sons possessed the
true and dauntless courage that should inspire
men on the battle field from the reports of their
brave deeds at Richmond, Ky, that had reached
the Army Of the Potomac, to which he
was attached. They had smeled gunpow
der and had stood up like men for the honor Of
the old flag. He too, was well acquainted with
their gallant Colonel, who had passed through
the bloody and hard contested battle of ShiIoab

SUPER TO Col. BENNErr-On Saturday
night last, the commissioned and non com
missioned officers of the 69ih, gave sup
per at Mccullough & Kelly's Restaurant,
to Col. Il. W. BENNErr. who had Just ac-
cepted the command of that regiment now
at Camp Wayne in this city. Several
citizens were invited and among thea the
editors of the city papers. We regret that
it was out of our power to attend; for we
are informed all who participated had "a
gay and festive time. and did honor to the
magnificent repest our friends Nc. & K
know SO well how to get up. Addresses
were delivered by Coils. Bennett ana Bickle
and by Lieut.. Col Stout. The reception
given to the new Col. by his officers, is
guarantee that the best of feeling will pre-
vail between them, and, judging from the
kindly and genial disposition of the com
mander. we hesitate not to say that the SOL
diers will love their Colonel. who is the
soul of honor and courage. Tho Col. B.
does not tower in stature, like unto giant,
yet no better fighting material is needed than
is in him; and, we say it without fear of
successful contradiction, there is not better
fighting stock any where than is to be
found in the 69th. Three cheers for Col.
Bennett. and Bully for the Union Eating
Saloon!-it did us as much good to hear
about the supper as if we'd been there
nearly.

The affairs in Mexico would claim great

Accounts came some days since that the Mex

driven from the country. Late news from
San Francisco, dated June 10, says letter
has been received there from Gov Alvarez
of Mexico, stating that on the Goth of May
he received news from the city of Mexico
stating that the French army had capitulated

We suppose it is the Argus clique, and We
are quite sure it will not be patronized or

cratic party. The call is rather rich. That
all may know who are invited we append
it:
"All citizens who think that the sectional
and fanatical principles, and the unconsti,u
tional and meddling practices of the republi

The Vermont Seventh Regiment all bu
Blown Up by Il Rebel Engineer.

A correspondent of the Rutland Herald in
the 1th Vermont, writes as follows:
1t was midnight when We left Ship Island
with our Regiment aboard a small steamer
by the name of Whiteman.
We sailed three hours at the rate of 10
miles per hour, when it was ascertaned that
something was wrong with the engine, and
upon an investigation of the matter, it was
found We Were being escorted by reJd en-
gineer with more than double the amount of
steam that it was warranted for. who had also
let nearly all the water out of the boiler, and
having launched a small boat for his own es-
cape, was just ready to let cold water into
the boiler. 1t was Ciscovercd bv the assist
ant engineer just in time to communicate to
Col Roberts the fact, and he was arrested
and things were soon set TO rights by the as
slStant engineer.
Had he succeeded in his villainous plot
every commissioned officer would have been
! blown into the heavens, as they were Jus,
over the boiler. vas about ten feet from
one end of the boiler, asleep. Col Roberts
then ordered the boat back to Ship Island
where we arrived at SUNRISE where the rebe
engineer was placed in the fort for safe keep
ing and trusty one secured, and We again
started.

NEW YoRK, June 2i. Extracts from
Charleston papers about the late battle, pub
lished in the .Uercury, say the Federals char
geG the Confederate battery three times with
the bayonet, once without cartridges. Ii
mentions that the 18th New York Regiment
was very gallant, and says after three charg-
es, finding Il at the battery was unyielding. a
flank movement was tried, a flank movement,
was tried, and for i time threatened the reb-
els seriously.
Finally, the latter were reinforced at a crit
ical spot and the Federais were repulsed.-
The rebels say they buried iI0 Federals
Their own loss was first stated to be 40 killed
and 100 wounded. but later accounts say i
was heavier. The rebels say the Federal:
carried off their wounded, which must hav,
numbered 200 or 500.
The account is evidently one-sided, and j
will doubtless prove exaggerated as to on
loss and I more serious affair TO the rebe.

ease the cords that binds this southern con-
federacy are nearly sundered. They are en-
compassed on every side and fear our ap-
proaches. The fearful gulf of defeat and de-
spair is opening wide to receive them, and
their retribation is well nigh sealed. The
cloud of discord and threat of war that set
tied so portentously upon tie whole people
