performed the greatest act OF his administra-

we understand it, it only affords US additional
proof of fact that we are most glad to
know that before issuing the proclamation,
he most carefully discussed and weighed all
the objections which could be urged against
it, and that his decision to issue it was the
result of a long and anxious scrutiny of both
sides of the immense subject.

THE MAJORITY OF THE TwELFTH.-We
understand that upon the resignation of Major
Sprague, the majority of the 18th was ten
dered to Capt Page, who felt unwilling to
accept it, without the approval of his COM
pany. The company, however, would not
consent to part with the services of Capt
Page at present. Capt. Kingsley was then
elected, but has been inspected out by Sur
geon Phelps.
The Burlington Times is responsible for
the above. Upon what authority the state
ment is made that Major Kingsley has been
inspected out by Surgeon Phelps, we do not
know but we are informed by Major Kings
ley, who is supposed to be somewhat inter.
ested in the matter, that it is a result which
be has not heard Of He is still Major in
good and regular standing, and has about al
little as any one We know, ofthe appearance
of man who had been inspected out"

SUPPLY OF REVENUE STAMPS FOR New
ENeLANp.-A dispatch from Washington
of the 29th, says:
Arrangements have been made by
which DR.. j. w Stone, U. s. Collector
Of Internal Revenue at Boston, will fur
nish the public generally, especially in
New England, with revenue or tax stamps
at the regular Government rates of dis.
count as rapidly as they can be manufac-
tured and supplied on remittance to Bos-
ton of Treasury notes. The following
commissions, payable in stamps, will be
allow ID:
On purchases Of $50 or more, per
cent; of 500 or more, 8 per cent; ol
$500 or more, per cent; OF $1,000 or
more, 5 per cent. .
In sending orders, the public shoult
remember that by law every stamp ex
presses on its face its kind as well as it
denomination. Each stamp can be used
for no :other purpose than that speci-
fed. Thus check stamps are for check
alone, contract stamps for contracts only
and the person using each stamp must de
face it by adding his initials. ss

GEN. SIaKL.-The Tribune ofyesterday.
has the following from its Washington cor.
respondent:
Gen. Sigel has asked to be relieved Of his
command. His letter to the President givee
the following reasons for the course which he
has found it necessary to pursue:
1. Because he was placed under the com
mand of q junior officer without the knowl-
edge Of the President, although the President
alone has the authority to place junior over
q senior of the same grade. seels
e Because)his command has gradually been
reduced first by the removal from it Of two
Divisions (Coxs and Cook') and then of two
Brigades (Platt's and Milroy's.
s. Because even the regiments raised ex-
pressly for him (except one) have not been
assigned to him, nor have others been given
him in their places.
Because of the grossly abusive manner
in which Gen. Halleck has treated him per-
sonally and officially.
5. Because his little command has been
placed in an exceedingly exposed position,
and ordered to perform tasks that are I'M
possible for it, and that require large COM
mand.
8. Because he cannot procure horses or
eauipage for his artillery and cavalry, and
hence those arms of the service are compare
lively useless to him,
7. Because all his requests and acquisitions
are neglected or refused, on account of which
his troops are discouraged and comparatively
inefficient, and many have not been paid for
six months.
8. Because he cannot expect fair treat
ment, and because his troops, for whom he u
deeply concerned, are made the innocent
sufferers on his account. He is persuaded
that they would fare better under another
commander. eH a8r
The statement that regiments raised ex-
pressly for Gen. Sigel had not been given to
him is confirmed by the testimony Of the
| Governors of six States-G Governors Yates,
Tod, Blair, Kirkwood, Andrew, and Sprague
who are anxious to know why this IS 90,
and are urging the authorities to carry out
the promise which they made at the time the
permission to raise regiments in each OF their
States for Gen. Sigel was given.

The 9TH REGIMENT.-It will be seen
from our correspondence this morning that
this regiment was to leave Annapolis on
the 25th Of September for Chicago, there
either to go into camp until exchanged, or
to be sent on to the frontier against the In
dians. The 9th has certainly experienced
a disagreeable fortune so far, in encoun-
tering little but retreats and surrenders, all
without any fault OF its own however.
Our correspondent gives an interesting
account of his experiences with the rebels
after the occupation Of Harper's Ferry,
he being left there sick, and justly COM
mends the Unionists he found at that
place. s. 2 81 -.9

Headquarters Cavalry Brigade, }
1st Vt. Cavalry, Sd Army Corps,
September oath, 1862. }

Before this reaches you, you will have
learned the sad tidings which cause me to
write But it is sible that few words
from one who knew Capt. Perkins, and near
him when he fell, may do something to tighten
the sorrow that now presses upon you.
Certainly, if the assurance that he died
nobly, unfinchingly, gloriously-leading
fearless charge upon the foe-can be of any
comforting value, you have it.
We had been, as you probably know, on
a long reconnaissance far into the country
driving in the enemy's pickets from post to
post, some six or eight miles, and had pressed
forward so rapidly in the chase that the main
column of the brigade failed to keep up with
the advance guard which was doing the
skirmishIng All at once it was discovered
that the pickets had rallied on strong re.
serve, and were making preparations to dis
pute our progress. The force which they
had was evidently much larger than our ad-
vance, and the rest of the column was too far
in the rear to be of any aid, While the 1t,
Colonel hesitated for a moment what to do,
the rebel columns advanced to position
where they could fire upon us, and we could
do nothing but go forward. The Colonel
gave the order to charge and Capt. P. at
once took the head of the column. They
dashed forward furiously and met most
stubborn resistance; the rebels sat like statues
on Their horses, fixed and immovable, until
we we're within few rods of them. Then
they poured against US a volley of balls.
| Capt. p, from his position and the white
horse he rode, made conspicuous mark,
| and was one of the first to fall Col. Preston
was wounded nearly at the same time. Capt
Erbardtt's horse was shot under him, and
| Lieut.. Adams was wounded. But the foe
could not resist the attack, and fled leaving
several of their number prisoners, and theil
1t. Colonel wounded.
This brief statement of the affair in which
one whose counsel we valued-whose intelli
oesce we trusted-whose courage we ad
mired-whose character we loved-met hi
death. need not tell you how much tha
loss is felt. / need not offer any feeble word
of consolation. But / do say that no man car
ask to die more valiantly, or in better
cause. And in all this deep afflction-al
though it may be but slight alienation
you have my deepest sympathy, and that o
all his fellow officers in the regiment
Yours very truly,

An unpleasant correspondence is sai'

An unpleasant correspondence is said
to be going ON between Generals Halleck
and Sigel in reference to recent events,
growing out Of an alleged criticism by the
commander -in-chief upon some of Sigeps
movements. The New York Times puts
forth this story. The brave German Is
the last man, certainly, in. reference to
whom official animadversion would be
presumed, and the fact that he has bean
honored recently by marked increase Of
his command, does not warrant an assump-
ton that he is at variance with his supe-
riors. The New York papers put 20
many falsehoods aaoat with reference to
the war, that it is hard to determine what
to believe. asnas sxisse 9

The following extracts from letters re-
ceived by the afflicted widow Of the late
Capt, Perkins, are published, as manifesting
the sympathy of the officers and men of his
regiment towards her in her sudden and
great bereavement, and because they give
further particulars of the engagement in
which he fell Our community will join in
the sympathy thus extended to his widow and
relatives; and will unite with the writers Of
these letters in their tribute to the personal
worth of the deceased, and in saying that no
man could die more valiantly or in better
cause.

THE EMMETT GUARD seems TO have
had pleasant time previous to their de-
parture from Burlisgton. A presenta-
tion was made to the landlord of the How
ard House on Saturday evening last, by
members of the company who had been
boarding with him during their sojourn in
Burlington, whereupon the landlord in
vited tn EN- TO an extemporized but excel,
tent oyster supper. After the supper, the
host of the Howard House, says the Bur-
lington Times, was called on for senti-
ment. Mr.. Barber gave:
"To the Emmett Guard-may their
achievements in the field, rival their VIC
tories here,"-which was received with
cheers.
Lieut.. Sennot, of Rutland, responded
in the absence of Capt. Lonergan rise
to assure you Of our appreciation of the
fayors received at your hands, and | only
reflect the general sentiment of this COM
pany, when say, we have found our host
very worthy man May he long live
and welcom US on our return. IF the op-
portunity is given us. we shall endeavor
to make our way to victory and fulfill the
expectations of our friends. | came among
you as stranger, and have found you
friends-my reception ahere has been
pleasing, and | shall always hold it in
grateful recollection. (Cheers.) ..'
Other speeches were made, one by
Capt. Lonergan, who had in the mean
time returned, and in conclusion, j. B.
Wheeler gave the sentiment "tne men,
ory of Emmett and Washington" which
elected rapturous applause.
Capt. Lonergan was also presented
with Colts revolver on the occasion.
