From The Vermont Cavalry.

correspondent of the Free Press,
writes from Harpcr's Ferry, on the Soth
ult, as follows
AT midnight on the 28th inst, we re-
cciyed orders to proceed to--without
delay, to join Banks division. Of course
every thing was in an uproar, until about
noon, when the bugle sounded 3" To Horse,
and soon we were on our way. Our jour-
ney lay through most lovely country
the fields green with grain, and every
thing presenting lovely appearance. At
night we halted at the Point of Rocks and
biyouacked in fores. near the river shore.
We saw here the ruins of once beautiful
bridge across the Potomac, destroyed last
June by the rebels. In the morning we
we're loaded into the cars, and came by
railroad to this place. l need not, per-
haps, give you description of this desert
ed village, as so many have been given
that one from me would be undressing;
but allow me to say that I doubt whether
the ruins of Herculaneum and Pompeii
present more desolate appearance than
this once beautiful town. The Arsenal Of
itself looks truly desolate-huge masses
of iron, brick, mortar, Sc, all piled in a
heap together, then the beautiful iron
bridge part of which still remains, pre-
sents also striking appearance beneath
it in the river lies a locomotive, and nu-
merous other pieces Of costly machinery.
And as to the village, think there are
not 10 families left in it. The beautiful
dwelling houses are smashed and torn to
peices. The house in which | with a
number of others quartered, was built a
few years since, at cost of $4,000. 1t
was formerly coupled by the paymaster in
the arsenal and has been pierced by a
cannon ball which passed directly thro.
1.-THE holes through the several parti-
lions look like 50 many stove pipe holes.
l learned from gentleman residing here
that it was done by Col. Geary.
The walls in tho building are all de-
faced by numerous engravings executed
by soldiers of the different regiments who
have quartered here. The beautiful ma
hogany stair railing is mostly cut up and
destroyed.
noticed that on most of the splendid
mansions the cave troughs were taker
down and all the lead pipe conducting thu
water was gone, and on inquiry fine
that it was all taken by the rebels fol
balls, thus showing the scarcity of thai
metal in tho South. 1 paid a short visit
to the engine house which was used by
John Brown as his stronghold it, as are
all the buildings in its vicinity, is nov
in heap of ruins. The walls remain al
monuments exhibiting the horrors of war

SECESSION SYMPATHY IN NAssAU.-From
private letter from an officer in the Uni.
ted States Navy, whose ship recently stop
ped at Nassau, we take the following:
Nassau is the most yillainous little seces-
sion hole in the universe. We only com
muucated with the Consul. who came off
to the ship. Our officers 10 going up TO the
Consulate were insulted at every step.
"Look at The Id Yankees. D---n the
Northerners," etc were the Ordinary greet
ngs. The Consul told US that bis flag has
frequently been hauled down and trampled
under foot, until he had halliards led upon
his second story piazza. The people would
frequently assemble before bis house aud
sing out "Take down that rag, ETC." II so
happens that S95 out Of every 500 Of le.
gitimate trade at Nassau comes from the
Northern States; and If trade with New
York in beef and ice alone was cut off. for
two months, the people would be running
around the streets with their tongues out Of
their mouths. We were not 10 a very ami
able frame of mind when our officers re-
turned, aud volunteer force to dig the
Island up and throw it into the sea, could
have been easily organized.

in Benicia, by all loyal men, with scorn and
contempt. A pensiOner on the bounty of
Uncle Sam, be loses no opportunity Of viii
flying the country which has kept him from
being public pauper. He has got to the
end of bis rope, thanks to the vigilance,
promptness. and fearlessuess of Marshal
Neville. The circumstances of the arrest
are these: Soon after noon, yesterday,
whilst Mckay stood on the street n Benicia
talking violently, as usual, Neville stepped
up aud tapping him on the shoulder said:
