The NINTH New HAMPSHIRE REGIMENT
passed through this city at about o'clock,
Monday afternoon, for the seat of war, by the
Nashua and Providence railroads, taking the
steamer at Groton, Ct This is a crack regi-
ment in every respect. Most of the line of
ticers have been in service the past year IN
other regiments, and over twenty are gradu-
ates of colleges. A large number of them
are Worcester county men, by birth or former
residence.
The rank and file are composed of the best
men in the state, many of them being gradu-
ates Of academical institutions. They are re-
cruited from various portions of the state, and
had been encamped at Concord for several
weeks, which place they left about o'clock
in the morning. They are ordered to report
to Gen. Halleck at Washington. They were
welcomed, on passing through our city in the
cars, with the usual demonstrations of enthu-
siasm.
The colonel of this fine regiment, Enoch
Q. Fellows, of Sandwich, is graduate of
West Point, and will be recollected as adju-
tant of the LIST New Hampshire regiment, and
colonel of the Sd, and has thus had great ex-
perience as commander. The lieutenant
colonel, Herbert B. Titus, of Chesterfield, has
also had military, education and experience.
He served as lieutenant in the I'd New Hamp-
shire regiment, and was subsequently an of
tfcer in the United States signal corps. The
major, George w. Everett, of New London,
is prominent lawyer and solicitor for the
Merrimac corporation at Manchester. The
adjutant, George H. Chandler, of Concord, is
graduate of Dartmouth College, and an as
sistant secretary of state for New Hampshire
The surgeon, VIM. A. Webster, of Manches-
ter, is one of the most prominent physicians
in New Hampshire. He is nephew of Hon.
Amasa Walker of North Brookfeld.
The chaplain is Rev. Edward NJ Gushee of
Dover, and the quartermaster, Carleton B.
Hutchins of Lisbon. The captains are as fol-
lows, in the order in which their companies

The PRESIDENT AND DIR. BRowNsoN.-
Orestes A. Brownson, the eminent Catholic,
had an interview with the president, Saturday,
at which the question of emancipation and
colonization were debated at length. Dr.
Brownson agreed with the president in the
matter of colonization, but believed that
emancipation was of the first necessity. The
Tribune correspondent says
The talk of the president was in hopeful
strain. He said that he was not fully per-
suaded that it was yet time to proclaim eman-
cipation, but Dr. Brownson infers from the
tenor of his remarks, that if the next battle
in Virginia results in decided victory for
our arms, a proclamation emancipating
the slaves of rebels in North Carolina,
South Carolina, Florida, Georgia, Ala
bama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, and
Arkansas, will be forthwith issued. As
he was leaving the room DIR. Brownson
asked the president if he could give him any
definite expression of opinion in regard to the
time when emancipation would be proclaimed,
upon which the president took up newspa-
per and read from it his letter to Mr.. Greeley.

SAVINGS BANKs.-It is a pleasure m loor,
that many of our savings banks in this com.
monwealth are steadily increasing in deposits
which may be owing in part to the LARGE
amount of bounty money received from re-
Gently enlisted soldiers, as well as to the So
curity Of their investments and the uniform
kindness and attention shown irrespectively to
depositors. Such has been the increase If
one of these institutions-the School street
savings bank-that, though it has been in be-
ing only about eight years, has now accounts
opened with more than 10000 persons, the
who'e amount of their credit being upward of
three million dollars and standing as it now
appears SECOND only in depositors and depos-
its to the oldest Of the ninety institutions of the
kind in the state -B Boston TrGreller.

The PRESIDENTS LETTER.-Under the
head of news items is a letter addressed by
the president of the United States to Horace
Greeley. The president is fond Of telling sto-
ries. He has rare gift of relating anec-
dotes, and we relshed those which we heard
from his lips. lie will excuse us if we say
that his letter reminds us of one. An old
lawyer was giving advice to his son, who was
just entering upon the practice of his fathers
profession. .:My son." said the counsellor,
''if you have case where the law is clearly
on your side, but justice seems to be against
you, urge upon the court and jury the vast
Importance of sustaining the law. If, on the
other hand, you are in doubt about the law
but your clients case is founded on justice
insist on the necessity of doing justice
though the heavens fall" But" asked the
son, show shall manage a case where both
law and justice are dead against me?" ."Ir

BRITISH SUBJECTS AND THE MILITARY
DRAFT.-Secretary Seward addressed the
following letter last week to the British
charge d aflaires;
DEPARTMENT OF STATE, WASHINGTON, !
August 20, 1862.
SIR-Having informally understood from
you that British subjects who had merely de-
clared their intention to become citizens of
the United States had expressed apprehen-
sions that they might be drafted into the mill
tia, under the late requisition of the war de-
partment, l have the honor to acquaint you,
for their information, that none but citizens
are liable to military duty in this country, and
that this department has never regarded an
alien who may have merely declared his in
tentions to become citizen as entitled to
passport, and consequently has always with
held from persons of that character any such
certificate of citizenship.

GENERAL STONES CONFINEMENT. - Gen.
Stone was not confined in Fort Lafayette
during theperiod ofhis nominal Imprisonment /;
but he was permitted to take up his quar-.
tiers in Fort Hamilton few days after his ar
rest. He was hardly under restraint having
been permitted to come and go at his pleas
ure, on his parole, and this lenity greatly ex-
cited the sick and wounded soldiers Mt Fort
Hamilton, many of whom expressed dissatis-
fiction at the lax discipline to which he was
subjected. .- Brooklyn Times.

UxBRIDGE.-The citizens of Uxbridge have
formed a drill club, numbering seventy mem
bers, and are practicing with good results.
The assessors Of the town have had some
doubt as to the enrolment of colored men.
The positive terms of the law Of congress, the
order of his excellency, and the opinion of the
attorney general, are said to have failed in
convincing the majority OF the board of their
duty, who propose to make separate enroll
ment lists of white and colored citizens

The Bounty QUEsTIoN.-The action of the
city council, last evening, on the subject of
offering bounty for nine months men, indi-
Gates the prevailing feeling of this community.
1t is the nearly universal desire that this rec
QUESTION should be filed without drafting, and
that reasonable inducemement should be Of
fered by private subscription, or municipal
bounty, to such as may be disposed to enlist.
This we understand to be the feeling of those
upon whom the burden of taxation will be
most likely to fall. The unanimous vote OF
the common council, and the next to unani-
nous vote of the board of aldermen in
favor of offering a municipal bounty
is sufficient assurance that one will ulti-
mately be given. Time is certainly pre-
cious; and it is perhaps unfortunate that the
question should remain for forty-eight hours
SO nearly, but not quite, settled. We trust,
however, that the efforts to recruit the sever
al companies now forming in the city will not
be relaxed, and that none who would other
wise have enrolled their names will hesitate
now. Favorable reports come to us from
towns and cities around us. Worcester should
not fail to give response equal to others.

The Condition of Rlchmond.

The New York Times gives the following
account Of the present condition of Rich
mond from the lips of an intelligent lady who
has resided there for the past two years. Her
social position had given her opportunities to
ascertain the truth, while it had protected her
from danger till she found means of ESCAPING
from that ''place of skulls;
ITS SANITARY CONDITION
There were never before so many people in
Richmond. Most of the strangers were sick
and wounded soldiers. The hospitals which
she had visited often were counted by hun
dreds. Slow, typhoidal fevers were CARRYING
the inmates off very fast. The army were on
half ratlons and poorly cared for. The hab-
its OF portion of the soldiers are filthy to
the last degree, and soap and water are, in
most instances, strangers, not to be intro
duced or tolerated in the camps, and too Of
ten in the hospitals. Added to this, there has
been, for long time past, scarcity of prov
ender for the mules and horses connected with
the army. Owing to their ill-ted condition, the
tamished brutes very often drop down in their
tracksfrom sheer exhaustion. Wherever they
fall they are permitted to die and decay No
used to clean the streets of that loaths0me
mass of decaying matter which thus rapidly
accumulates. The whole atmosphere in and
around the city she represents as highly
charged with this horrible malaria, and to
use her own expression, ''the air seems thick
with disease, and heavily laden with death"
Every tobacco warehOuse-and the cityis full
of them-is used either as a hospital or a
prison. In addition to these, very large
number of wholesale stores and other build
lngs have, since the weeks battle in front of
the city, been appropriated to the use of the
sick and wounded.
IT'S BUSINESS PROSPECTS.
Very little business of any kind is transact
ed, and none whatever after two p. NJ. AT
that hour all the stores and shops are closed,
and every male able to bear arms, and eUea
mdny Of the females, go to drill. Food is very
scarce and very high. For three months past
no citizen, however wealthy, has been able to
procure particle OF fresh meat of any kind;
what little OF that article could be obtained,
was given to the sick soldiers. The only veg
etable winch our informant has seen there
since the beginning OF June, were few half
grown cabbage heads, all OF which were read
lily SOLD Tor the sum 500 each. The only
KIND OF meat is salt pork, which, though not
really putrid, has taste so bitter and rancid
that no one can eat it unless nearly starved.
lea can not be had at any price. Three
months ago our informant purchased pound
of ordinary IS. tea for the sum of SIS, since
which time none could be obtaiued. There
was a little coffee in the market, at from 81
to Sc per pound. The only article of food
which can be obtained readily, and at any
where near like an ordinary price, is flour /:

THE REBEL. CoNeREss.-This body re-as-
sembled at Richmond last week. jeff Davis
message is chiefly devoted to review of the
events of the past two months, and the advo-
cacy of retaliatory measures. He alludes to
the recent policy of subsisting our armies
upon the country in which they are compell-
ed to march with great indignation, and
charges that two generals at least are excit-
ing servile instruction and training slaves
for warfare against their masters, while
third had been so brutal as to invite the vio-
lence of his soldiery against the women Of
captured city. His lively imagination pro-
trays many other atrocities of a similar char
acter, on the basis of which he appeals for
such punishment as is ''meted out to murder
ers and felons for the most monstrous of
crimes" He also recommends an increase in
the issue of trea' ury notes, the extension of
the provisions Of the conscript law, and other
measures wich the expectation of long-pro-
tracted war will render necessary.
