The Repulse of Gen. Banks---w ashington i'm
Danger.

The intelligence from the seat of war
this morning is of the most startling in
tercst. Gen. Banks has been driven
across the Potomac by a superior force of
rebels, and the national capital is again
menaced. We have but few details, but
these few are enough to make us dread to
hear more. Gen. Banks advance, was
attacked at Front Royal on Friday, and
being in small force, was badly cut up
and forced to retreat, falling back on the
main body, at Strasburg and then the
whole division retreated to Winchester,
where the rebels attacked them Sunday
morning, and after a brilliant defense
against an overwhelmingly superior force,
were driven across the Potomac. The
rebels are evidently in great force and
their object is to threaten Washington,
and thus draw away our army from Rich
mond. The retreat of Gen. Banks has
been conducted successfully, and is out of
immediate danger; but the urgent call of
Gov. Andrew for more troops to be sent
on Immediately, will cause every heart to
throb with anxiety, and make us dread
the worst.
There has been terrible mistake
somewhere. Gen. Banks, after being once
nearly down to Staunton, has been grad
ually falling back, and for some time
past he has been sending large reinforce
ments to Gen. Mcdowell. These detach-
ments were transported over the Manass-
as Gap railroad, which passes through
Front Royal, and hence the enemy has
had us at great disadvantage, and gath
ering in large force--perhaps being rein
forced from Richmond--has made us pay
dearly for the blunder. 1t is understood
that Gen. Banks has protested against
these movements, but has been overruled,
and the responsibility of the defeat does
not rest with him. Washington dis
patches to the New York papers do not
hesitate to charge the secretary of war
with the gross mismanagement of affairs,
and in ascribing to him the blame for this
unlocked for and disgraceful defeat
But it will do little good now to look
up the responsibility. The disaster has
come, and we have got to meet it like
men. The blow is the more stunning be.

victory, and our pride is wounded as

FIREs.-In Stowe, on Friday last, the
Forks School House, on the mountain
road, together with house belonging to
Mr.. Clark and barn belonging to Mr..
Barnes, in which was about 2 tons of hay,
also about 800 worth of lumber, belong
ing to Mr.. Barnes were burned. 1t is
supposed that the fire caught from the
woods, on the premises of Mr.. Harlow,
about half mile distant.
We learn that on the same day the fire
in Wolcott destroyed two barns and two
sheds belonging to Timothy Arbuckle, on
Martin Hill. in the south part Of the
town. In the barn was fifteen tons of
hay, and four tons of straw. The build
ings we're insured for about Sl60. the in
surance also covering the produce, which
added to that on the buildings was esti-
mated at $267.5O. Mr.. Arbuekle also
lost harness. two hogs, and such tools as
are usually kept about barn in winter.
He also suffered considerable loss in the
way of damage to his house, which was
on the opposite side of the road from the
buildings, and so near that it narrowly
escaped the fate Of the barns. The front
was badly scorched, and the doors and
windows badly smoked. The furniture
was also removed from the house, and
was of course, more Or less bruised and
soiled.
simultaneously with the burning Of the
barns, sugar house belonging to Francis
Peck was burned. In the house was 30O
sap buckets. and sap pan, which cost
Ga this spring These were all destroyed
Also on the same day. o sugar house
on the Powers Farm, belonging to Holtor
e. Judevine, of Hardwick, was burned
together with the buckets &C.. sufficient
for three hundred trees.
The FIRE originated in fires set about q
week previous. and which we're supposed
to have expired. till the brisk wind o.
Friday revived them.

From Ship Island.


We are permitted to make the follow
ing extracts from private letters of S. F.
Aiels, who went from Cambridge, in Capt.
CIRCUITS Co., to his wife in the place. The
first is dated April Goth:
ave arc yet on Ship Island, but don't
know how long we shall stay. l don't
think there is any prospect that we shall
have any fight with the rebels. We have
not seen any of them except some prison
ers, who were taken before we came here.
There are some so or 60 on the Island
some came of their own accord. There
are quite number of negroes who came
from the rebel shore, which is not far dis
tant,-only 8 miles. We can see it very
plainly from Ship Island. I went last
Sunday, on horseback, up to the head Of
the Island, riding about 16 miles, and
looking the Island all over. saw all
kinds of trees and shrubs. I saw two
wild hogs, one dead, and one alive. l
saw an alligator, and many kinds of birds.
There are orange trees growing, but did
not get sight of an orange. There are
plenty of them on the other side of the
bay, on the Mississippi shore.
The part of the Island where we are
encamped is barren desert, for there is
nothing growing on it, nor can, for the
sand is on the move all the time, like SO
much snow. 1t is dry 6 inches deep. 1t
is very hot here, the thermometer stand
ing from 80 to 100 degrees in the shade
through the day. The nights are cold.
The dew is very heavy, almost as bad as
a shower of rain.
The boys in our company are all alive
yet, though some of them have the dysen-
terry. We have very good fare--at least
l do, for am on detail, and don't board
with the company. They grumble some,
and think they don't live very we'll. I
am at work at my trade, Carpenter and
Joiner, and get So per month extra pay.)
If they do not stop building here, l shall
not 60 back into the ranks again"
The following extract is from letter
dated the 9TH inst.
1--WE have got orders to march where
we don't know; we expect to New Orleans.
We had marching orders Saturday, the
Sd, and commenced packing our baggage
Sunday. 1t was carried to the wharf by
teams We still remain in our tents, but
expect every minute to be ordered to
strike tents. There are regiments
going with us; the 18th Connecticut, 9Th
New Hampshire, 18th Maine and Sth VT
are all going together. There are 22+ Of
the 9TH Vt. going to Fort Pike on fatigue
duty: the balance is going to remain
here for the present. There are of our
Co. that are to be left behind. They are
all but one sick. Their names are Charles
Boynton, (whose father is to remain with
him to take care of him. Blake of Eden,
Rodney Magookin of Belvidere, A. Silver,
one of the men that were drumed out at
the Park, and Martin Wiley of Water
VILE The rest of them are able to 20
with us. Rodney has had the rheuma-
tism since the Goth of March. He has
done no duty since we left N. Y. Silver
fell and hurt his hip the day we landed,
and has done nothing since"

MoNEY.-We hope those who are in
debted to us will remember that we need
money. They seem to be thinking more
about the war, just now. Well, we know
that is the more important, but we need
money none the less.

More Volunteers.

Our readers have, ere this, learned that
Vermont has been called on for another
regiment of volunteers to assist in putting
down the rebellion. We hope they will
respond to the call with promptness. Let
none who can consistently 60, hesitate a
moment. If any man, young or old, has
any misgivings on account Of the neces-
sity of leaving behind wife, sister, or
a sweetheart, let him lay the case before
them, and in nine cases out of ten, their
decision will be in favor of going; and in
many instances they will express regret
that they are not men, too, that they
might 60.
This seems to be a critical time with
the Union cause. Our men are all in the
field, and at all points before them, have
all the work they can attend to, while at
some points they are outnumbered by
their enemies; so that in no case does
there seem to be any surplus or reserve
force to rely upon in case of emergency.
We need more men to supply this def
cheney.
The rebels are now so nearly cornered
that they will not hesitate to adopt the
most desperate measures to avoid being
compelled to submit. They feel that un-
less they can nop make some show of abil-
ity to maintain their independence, their
cause is hopelessly lost. Hence we may
expect that they will now bring forward
all the force they can command, and that
they will act with an energy proportionate
to the danger which they feel to be threat
ening the cause in which they have ven-
tured to hazard their all-even life.
1t seems to us that it is only necessary
to complete and final victory over trea-
son, that the government now use with
vigor the means, both in men and money,
that hepeople are ready to place at its
command. Energetic action will now
complete the work, while the least show Of
hesitancy will endanger the loss of all
that has been achieved Not man Of
us doubts the justice of our cause; and
we all believe that justice must and will
triumph, if its friends are only in ear
nest The men at the head of the gov
eminent are known to be men of integri-
ty and judgement. Let them be fully
sustained, and our country is safe.

GEN. BERRY-AN ERROR.
Messrs Editors Il noticed in the letter
from Washington, in yesterdays Press, that in
the commentator OF Gen. Berry he was
spoken of as having a command in Gen. Hook
ers corps. This is mistake, unless / have
been greatly misinformed,) for Gen. Hooker
had division in Gen. Heintzelman's corps
until he took McDowell's corps, which he COM
manded at Antietam And Gen. Berry has
had a brigade in Kearney's division, also under
Heintzeman. Since Kearney's death the d.
vision has part Of the time been commanded
Berry still retains his brigade in this division.
l am informed that Gen. Kearney was wont to
speak in high terms Of Gen. Berry.
TEXAS EXPEDITION AND GEN. HOWARD.
1t may be worthy of mention that General
Howard has recently bad an interview with
Maj. Gen. Banks, which seems to indicate that
the former may participate in the Texas ex-
petition. 1t is said also that Gov. Washburn
is DESTROYS that Gen. Howard should have
command in the expedition, and will exert his
corps, which Gen. H. now has, contains four
teen regiments - Massachusetts,, Michigan,
Minnesota and Maine troops, together with a
brigade from Pennsylvania and two regiments
from New York. The friends of Gen. Howard
in the six Maine regiments to accompany
Banks, will doubtless be glad to greet him as
their commanding officer. MAQUoIT.
