VERMONT HORSES.

Col. Daniel Needham, Corresponding
Secretary Of the Vermont State Agricultu.
raj Society, in his annual report, has the
following; s-.''.A i...'a- y.
r-"The number Of horses in Vermont be-
fore the breaking out Of the rebellion, was
about fifty.fve thousand since which
time. it is calculated that nearly ten
thousand have been carried from the State
for army purposes. This immense levy
for horses has been made throughout the
entire country. When it is considered
that comparatively few Of these horses will
find their way back; that the number
tina. will die Of disease or become unfit for
service is twenty times as great as it would
be were they used to any other kinds Of
business: that to meet this great want of
the government a,large proportion of the
business horses in our cities. which have
been thrown out of service by general
prostration, have been brought up: it
readily appears, that even during the war,
horses must advance it in price; and at
its close. when business shall revive and
trade resume its former channels, the de.
mapd for good horses must exceed the
supply. Reasoning from these premises,
no more profitable labor can be engaged
in, than The production Of business hor.

we read that "that dread disease, the
diptheria, from which we have hitherto
been exempt has found its way hither."
There is shrub the bark of which, if
used in season, will cure this disease.
For the benefit of the readers of the Argus
will describe it, although the doctors
may not wish to have it known that any,
thing will effect such cure except Gallo
mel, quinine, brandy, camphor and the
like. The shrub is known by most peo-
pie as dogwood. 1t branches out like an
umbrella top, except that it is HAT, and
bears little black berry. have never
known it to fail Of curing the throat all
when tried. and the directions for its use
are so simple that all can understand how
to do it, Take the green bark from the
tree, and steep it in pure water until the
strength is all extracted. Then strain it,
let it cool. and after putting little sugar,
it is ready for use, when it may be taken
at discretion. This preparation is also
very good for swelliugs and inflammation,
and, when used on animals, has been
known to stop inflammation after NORTH
cation has set in. The canker root will
cure putrid sore throat This root grows
on top of our high mountains, in light
soil, and is not discoverable until about
June. Dcgwood is "get-at-able" in all
seasons, growing in wet, swampy places,
and beside rivulets aud springs on hill

Gen. Lane at Chicago--His Plans.

General Jim Lane was at Chicago on
Wednesday, and addressed a large
crowd. The Tribune says that Repub-
licans, Abolitionists, Old Line Demo
Gratis, heartily asserted to his view.
The General said in his speech that the
Government was becoming satisfied
that the plan thus far pursued to crush
out the rebellion was not the true
method. He continued:
"On Mondey last they opened new
set of books and came to the conclu-
sion that if the Union can't be saved
and slavery saved, then down goes
slavery. The rebels have either got to
submit, to die or to run away. | tell
you the time has come when play must
stop. The rebels must submit or be
sent down forthwith to that hell already
yawning to receive them.
This desirable contamination was eff
fected by a compromise. The radical
men agreed that the conservative men
should carry on the war according to
their notions, for eight months. provid-
ed they were allowed the next eight.
The time is up for the conservatives,
and they now hand the war and its
conduct over to the radicals, and every
conservative man should now extend
the same encouragement and support
which we gave them in tho prosecution
or their method,

The War Department.

The change in the War Department
appears to give very general satlsfac
ton. and it is believed that the event
will prove to be the Inauguration OF
more honesty, greater economy, and
more real energy, in the affairs OF the
War Office and the Army, than have
thus far characterized them.
There has been an amazing degree
of mismanagementa and maladminisira-
ton in that department, especially in
the matter of army contracts, and we
have. but little doubt that this fact,
more than any other, made the resigna-
ton of Mr.. Cameron necessary. 1t is
to be hoped that under the charge OF
Mr.. Stanton, man of great energy OF
oh aracter and business talents, and
sonorablereputation for integrity, these
tbiucs will be reformed, and alb the af-
fairs of the Department be properly
administered. and with an honest re-
gard to the best In tercsts of the Gov
eminent and the efficiency ct the army
of the Union.

Later from Europe.

By the arrival of the Europa, we have
at last definite intelligence from Eng
land, as to how the answer of our Gov
eminent to the demand of Great Britain
in the "Trent" affair was received, and
how it will effect the future relations OF
of the two countries. The Ministry
are represented to have declared them
selves gratified and satisfied, and the
press generally receives the adjustment
in good temper, though one or two of
then, possessed of chronic hate of
the Unitsd States, cannot give their
acquiescence in the settlement of one
controversy, without attempting to get
up another in reference to the sinking
of stone-loaded vessels in Charleston
harbor. This they affect to regard as
atrocious, although Great Britain has
done the like more than once, and they
give characteristic growl.
The most significant feature of the
news is the fact that the London Times
and others are disappearing any step
on the part of the English people to
Mason and Slidell any public demon
STATIONS of honor on their arrival-and
we judge that John Bull will give the
fugitive traitors the cold shoulder, and
rather boot at than applaud them.

The signal defeat and route of Zolli-
Golfers forces opens the roads to East
Tennessee and the great line of Rail-
roads by which the army of Manassas
is supplied. The threatening advance
of the Mississippi Expedition will pre-
vent the confederate forces along its
banks from moving, while Buell's large
army threatening Nashville will keep
Gen. Johnston at or near Bowling
Green.
The result will be that the rebel gen.
erals at Manassas, seeing their commu-
nication with their supplies threatened,
will be compelled to do one of these
three things: they will either ~ send
large force by railroad into East Ten
nessee to thwart Gen. Buell., or (2)
they will withdraw the whole army
southwark, or (3) they will make des-
perate push towards the Potomac, and
offer immediate battle to Gen. McClel.

out to meet this, Gen. Mcclellan i'm

takes it. If the rebels should withdraw
their thin army from Manassas south

several eoastwise expeditions particu

communications.

at, we think we have the rebels at &
great disadvantage, which, we believe

months.
Mrs. M. A. Onderdox, who some
times represents herself to be widow,
and sometimes q wife, was arrested In
Chicago some months since, and after
being confined here six weeks, was re-
leased on parole. Forty dollars were
given her to pay her expenses back to
Chicago, but instead of going there
she went to New York. She was last
heard of at St. Louis.
An English lady, Mrs. Elena Lowe,
who was arrested at Boston, and whose
son was with her, having come with a
commission in the rebel army, has also
bsen confined at this institution. The
son was afterwards sent to Fort W ar

Besides the ADORE there were some
eight or ten persons arrested at Alex
andria and in this city, whose names
are not remembered, and who, after be-
ing confined at this prison, were shortly
Afterwards liberated, on taking the oath
Of allegiance.
Miss Ellie NJ. Poole, alias Stewart,
was arrested and brought 10 the prison
on the 18th of August, 1861. She
came from Wheeling, where, after hav-
ing been confined for some time in the
prison there, she made her escape by
tying the sheets together and letting
herself down from the prison window.
She has been in communication with
the rebel leaders in Kentucky, advising
them to make certain changes in their
plan of operations. When arrested
the second time, within ten miles Of the
rebel lines in Kentucky, $1,000 of un-
expended money, furnished by the reb-
els, was found upon her person. She
has been a correspondent of the Rich

how many black men do you want to
have to take care of your army ?" l
told him as my army would number 34,-

bands in addition to my transfers and
wagon-masters. I consider every one
of my soldiers engaged in the glorious
Crusade of Freedom knight Grant
and entitled to his squire to prepare his
food, black his boots, load his gun, and
take off bis drudgery. Vanity and
pride are necessary adjuncts OF the
soldier, and do not propose to lower
him by mental offices nor Compel him
to perform the duties of the slave.
So while / shall elevate the slave by
giving him his freedom and making a
man of him, shall also elevate the
soldier and leave him nothing to do but
fighting.

THE ECONOMY OF HEALTH.-This
busy nation of Americans have IL, OOO,-
900 working people, whose services
may be estimated at 80 day, and their
annual loss by sickness at an average
of ten days each in the year. This
gives total loss of S24O,000 900, sum
three times as large as the cost of the
General Government, including the
Army, Navy, Post Offices, Legislators,
Foreign Ministers and all. The amount
weighs over six hundreds tons in pure
gold.
A large proportion of this costly suf.
fering might be averted by attention to
diet, cleanliness, and above all, by the
proper use of the right remedy in sea-
son. When 25 cent box of Ayers
Pills will avert all attack of illness
which it would take several days to re-
cover from, or dollar bottle of Ayers
Sarsaparilla, will expel lurking dis
order that would bring the sufferer to
his back for weeks or months, does it
take any figures to show the good econ
omy of the investment When Fever
and Ague is ranking in your veins, and
shaking your life out of you, it is worth
the dollar it costs for the AGUE CURE
to have the vilainous disorder expelled,
which it does surely and quickly +?
When you have taken a cold it is pru-
dent to wait until it has settled on the
lungs, when days or weeks or months
must be spent in trying to cure it, even
if it can be cured at all, or is it cheaper
to take Ayers Cherry Pictorial, costing
a few shillings, and remove the trouble
before it is serious? 1t takes no wis.,
dom to decide.
