GREEN MOUNTAIN FREEMAN, MARCH 10, 1862.
The Naval Engagement near Newport News.

The Naval Engagement near Newport News.
ture Of the rebel I" iron monster" Merrimac,
seems quite unfavorable to us, and so far as the
loss Of life is concerned, caused by the sinking
of the frigate Cumberland, the particulars will
doubtless confirm the first reports. Aside from
this, however, the action, Judging from what We
yet have learned, has no particular Significance
The frigate Cumberland which was sunk, aud
the Congress which surrendered, are not by any
means q serious loss, and beyond their destruc
tion our naval force at that point does mt ap
pear to have suffered much. And the timely
arrival Of the Ericsson, iron clad steamer put at
once very different face upon the whole affair.
II We had needed, after the achievements OF
Foote'S gunboats, any additional evidence of the
value and imperative necessity OF casing war
vessels with iron, TO give them any great ciclen-
cy, We should find it alike in what the Merrimac
accomplished when she was opposed only by
wooden walls, and What she did not accomplish
when she tried her power on the Monitor. The
latter steamer proved at least match for the
boosted " iron monster" that the rebels have
spent six months in getting ready for this
achievement, and relieves us from any further
anxiety respecting the Adventurous disposition
of the rebel engine that looks 50 much like
'' house submerged all but the roof" If the
Merrimac again comes down the James river,
the Monitor will quite likely submerge her en-
tirely.

Town CENTENNIAL CELEBRATloNs.-We have
before US, an essay, prepared by request of the
Vermont Historical Society, and read before that
body at Burlington, the Odd of January, on the
" Historic Importance and Social advantage"
of town Centennial elebrations, by Henry
Clark, Esq, of Poultney. The essay, besides
containing much valuable historical information,
presents many striking arguments and sugges-
,ons in favor of such celebrations, and urges
all towns in the State to hold them when the
century from the date Of their charter is COM
plcted. 1t also recommends that those towns
which We're chartered more than one hundred
years ago, and have not yet held such a celetra-
ton, DO 80 as soon as possible. These sugscs-
tions ought to be followed, as by means of these
celebrations, and the spirit of antiquarian and
historical research they excite, very much that
is valuable in the history Of Vermont may be
rescued from the oblivion to which it s rapidly
passing.
