General Order Number d.
WOODSTOCK. Dec. u, 1868.

WOODSTOCK, Dec. 81, 1868.
Official information having been received,
that men mustered into Few organizations will
be credited in reduction of the quotas under
the call for 100000 volunteers, it is ordered
as follows:
l. The seIectmen of the several towns In
this State will not allow this information to
interfere with their efforts to fill their quotas
TOR old regiments, as assigned in general or
der No. 2, dated November =, 1868, but will
proceed, with all due diligence, to fill their
quotas as heretofore directed. The battery
of light artillery, stationed at Burlington,
and recruited by Capt. X. H. Start. will be
mustered into the service of the United
States in season to allow the men, enlisted
for that organization, to be credited upon
the quotas of the towns, from which they
enllste d, under the call for 100000. But as
'he seventeenth regiment can only be credit
ca when mustered, and can only be mustered
~hen 1t shall have been filled to the minimum
oy enlistment, there is no such reasonable
prospect, that it will be raised and mustered
previous to the fifth of January, 1868, as will
justify the selectmen of the several towns in
renting their efforts to raise recruits to fill
'hef quotas for old regiments, as heretofore
assigned.
AS soon as the regiment is filled, it will be
mustered; and if filled in season to be mus
.efeu previous to january 9TH, the men Of
'iie regiment will be credited, in pursuance
Vi the Information received. But good faith
70 !he several towns requires that they should
hat, ha
as 10 the regiment being filled, and be eau
."nen. That they do not allow themselves to
i'ieul hazard OF draft, through reli~.... m
on expectations that In regiment will b,
filled and mustered in season to secure tc
them the benefit of the credit for the mer
enlisted therein, upon their present quotas
under the call for 100000 men.
2. The Seventeenth Regiment will not b.
dlsbanded, but will be filled to the maximum
and mustered into the service of the United
States as soon as it can be done. Ever,
eh'rt will be used by the Governor of tn,
Htate To '@cure for the men Of the regimen
S"''e so>ei"-~ent bounties and all tn
"'a','oSes WHICH art -aoeiyed by recruit
Tor other regiments. and it Is ,~.eJo,,,I,. o,
pected and desired that the several +; =. ;,;n
offlcers for the regiment, and the seectme
OF the several towns, will promote the tiilir
of the regiment as soon as is practicabl,
and. when mustered, although it shou
be subsequent to the fifth of January. ii
men will be credited to the towns. from whiC
they enlist, towards their deficiency of Il
draft, or under any future call which NAV
made. PETER T. WASHBCRx.

The Sacrifice at KinsgOld.

The Western papers are very severe upon
Gen. Hooker for sacrificing 800 Illinois and
Ohio troops in attacking the rebel defences
at Riuggold. They say if he had obeyed
orders he would not only have taken the po-
sition, instead of being repulsed, but would
have captured Hardee's corps. The St. Lou
is Republican says Rockers head was turned
BY the laurels won at Lookout Mountain
and he was impatient of restraint by his su-
perior officer. 1t also insinuates that he
had taken thief in his mouth to steal awav
his brains, which is mild way of staff no
that he was drunk. This latter statement i
doubtless the key to the whole disaster. A
man under the influence of liquor throws
brave men into the jaws of death, thus sacri.
fcing 500 noble soldiers. When will such
work cease9
The Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1837-1867, 1863-12-25

abounded in great profusion. We see it
stated in New Hampshire paper that among
the contributions to the fair from Vermont,
was that of Messrs. E. & T. Fairbanks & 20,
of St. Johnsbury, who sent, through their
branch house, Messrs. Fairbanks & Brown,
two very large platform scales, Of handsome
finish, with mahogany pillars and brass
weights.
There were many disappointed who at
tended the fair after the first night, that the
organ was not to be seen even, it being COW
cred the whole time by green baize, like a
hand organ. Some reckoned it would DAM
