In Bakersfield, on the 23d inst, Thomas Child,
Esq, aged SO years. ..-
Mr.. Child was born in Westminster, Mass, and
moved to Bakersfield in the year 1905. He has
discharged his duties as husband father and citi
zen with rare fidelity, and has passed away. AS
we notice the decease of this pioneer of our for
ests it is well for us to reflect upon the hardships
and privations endured by the early settlers of
Northern Vermont and the inheritance Of -four
ishng villages turtle farms, and all the incidents
of civilization that mark where, in 1905 was al
most an unbroken wilderness Such men are de-
serving of grateful remembrance. The subject
of this notice was for long time prominent
man in the town in which he resided, and repre-
sented the town in the State Legislature for a Sc
res of years He, like most of the early settlers
of Vermont sought home for himself and fam
lily and with no expectationsif acquiring wealth
beyond competence. They by industry and
economy sought to hand down to their posterity
the liberty and privileges so recently and dearly
procured for them, and add to it the advantages
of education and competence. Would it not
be well for us, in this day to remember and pat
tern after their homely virtues.
In this town, April 10th, Andrew f., son OF
Hiram D. and Sarah A. Kellogg, aged IA days.

New Orleans Taken.

New Orleans, the great city of the
southwest, has fallen. The intelligence is
communicated to the war department by
both Gen. Wool and Gen. Mcdowell, who
obtained it from different rebel papers,
and the report is probably to be relied
upon. All our victories at the south have
first been reported by the rebels, and they
have never deceived us in hearing Union
victories before they took place. 1t is
known that our forces have been on the
move against the city, and as the defense
was not formidable, there has been ample
time to accomplish this glorious result.
The news is credited at Washington and
accords with the expectations of the gov
ernment Of course we have but few
particulars, and it will take time to learn
the full particulars of this grand success.
The rebels confess to a great panic and a
large destruction of property, and it is
probable the city has fallen into our hands
without much fighting. But the victory
is none the less important because blood.
less and that the enemy should suffer his
largest and most populous city to fall into
our hands so easily, is the strongest proof
of the waning properties and utter hope.

GEN. CAsEY's Observation-Disclosures
ces have, it appears, furnished reasons for
what at the period Of its occurrence SEEM
ed the unaccountable retreat of General
Casey's brigade from the battle at Fair
Oaks, on Saturday the 31st ult.
In the first place, the men under his
command were composed of the most re-
cent recruitments, scarcely organized, not
at all, or but slightly drilled. The officers
were also in general unacquainted with
the art of war-their bravery being their
best qualification.
That it was well tested, the numbers
that have been killed and wounded, stand
forth to prove satisfactorily. Without
preparation, officers and men were thrown
at once into the worst hardships of the
campaign, and the consequence soon
showed itself in sickness from exposure
and malarious influences, which material
ly weakened the brigade. Some hundreds
of men in each regiment were sick, the
aggregate amounting to one-third of the
whole brigade.
When the engagement came on, the
sick men in the camp took up their arms
and proceeded to the rear, and thus gave
to tie other brigades the erroneous i'm
preston that there was an early and con-
sequently a disgraceful detection from
General Casey's command. For hours
those who were able to fight kept the field
manfully, and did not retire until over
whelmed by rebel numbers. 1t is assum-
ed by parties who pretend to know the eff
feet of these representations in high
quarter, that the odium under which Gen.
Casey's brigade now labors will be sup.
planted by Just and coveted praise.
