Capt. Charles Buxton, Co. G.. ] lth Ver-
mont, arrived at his home in this village on
Monday, on furlough. lie has been sick.
bat is now in good health. His company
was recruited in this place last September,
and since they went to the seat Of war,
have enjoyed good health to remarkable
degree. He has lost but one man in his
company, Underwood of Pulney, we be-
lieve. since they have been out there. There
were but two in the hospital viz: Geo. c.
Leach of this village, and Charles @. Good
Of Grafton. The latter is in fair way of
recovery, but the former, though able to be
about some, is in such poor health that Capt.
Is. thinks he had better be discharged, and
he probably will be before long. There
were but two or three of duy. We made
inquiries after several of the Rockingham,
Londonderry and Grafton boys, in that
company, with whom we are acquainted,
and are glad TO learn that they were all
well hen the Captain left. Lieut.. Charles
II. Fleming is now in command Of Co. G,
in the absence of the Captain.
Our readers are all aware of course, that
the It'll has been changed from infantry to
heavy artillery. and is divided in two or
three forts, and Co. G. is at Fort Slocum,
aud with Us. their friends at home will be
glad to hear of their general good health.
Capt. b. speaks highly of his officers and
mea, as behaving with credit and honor to
themselves. He viii remain with US about
fortnight, when he win again return to the
seat of war.

from the legislative wisdom of Vermont
last fall, they may consider themselves I'M
commonly fortunate. In the mean time
our ministers are calling in thunder tones
for help, and collection of $40 was taken
a few Sabbaths since, for that purpose. I
trust that the cali of the sick and suffering
soldiers for help, will rouse us up to a sense
of duty in every town and hamlet through
Vermont, so that those who have gone forth
from among US tofght our battles, may feel
that our hearts are with them in this work.

Loss of the Monitor.

The famous Monitor has been lost, hut it
is q consolation that it was not at the hands
of the rebels. She sprang leak off CAPE
Hatteras, and sank on Tuesday night CT
last week.
The commapder reports the loss of four
officers and twelve men in this disaster. 1t
was during gale that this sad affair hap
rened. At ten O'Clock p. NJ, the whole
pumping force of the ship was in requisi-
sition, and for while the water was kept
under. The following is 4rom one of the
crew:
IN ashert time, however. word was passed
from the engine room that the water was
again gaining on the pumps and was then
up TO the ash-pits, stopping in great meas
ure. the draft. The water at this time was
standing two feet deep upon the ward room
floor. All hands then set to work, with ey-
cry available bucket at hand, TO BAIL
The water however kept gaining until
within foot of the fires in the furnace
A Coston signal was then fred 10 call the
Rhode Island. After much delay, conse-
quent upoG the heavy sea, boat was
lowered from the Rhode Island and sent to
our assistance. After several trials she got
alongside of us. The Rhode Island at the
same time in going sstern caught her launch
between her own side and our vessel crush

counter down heavily upon our side
For a time she could no; move, her engine

After The departure IF the launch those
remaining aboard worked ct the buckets
with a wiil.-The gale was raging fariously,
the seas making a clear sweep over the top
of the turret The water at this juncture
had risen to the great bars of the furnaces
and gradually extinguished the fire. The
steam consequently went down, and the
pump could not be worked for want of sufli-
cient steam. Three boats were now OBJ
served coming towards the YES sci. Word /
was passed that the boats at hand were |

LATEST NEWS.
Great battle at Yicksburg.

We have one days later news from
Vicksburg Thursday morning. A great
battle is raging at that place, the result of
which is not yet known, if indeed, Their e
has been any rtsult.
The rebels have concentrated all their
forces from jackson and Grenada and along
the line Of the road, amounting to $4,000
men at Vicksburg.
This overwhelming force attacked Gen.
Sherman on Monday, and caused him to
fall back 10 his first line of defence.
Gen. Sherman's force had fought to
within two miles of the city, when he was
attacked by the superior force OF the rebels.
The fighting on Sunday is represented as
desperate IN the extreme.
Batteries and Notifications were taken
and retaken. Whole regiments, and even
brigades fought hand TO hand over guns
and for The possession of defences.

Several in coming of the tunnel were
sweped by the waves to leeward a,pd must
have persisted as no assistance could be
rendered them.
The boats then showed off from the sink
ing vessel ;although several times entreated
to come down and get into the boats, several
remained standing upoh the turret afraid
of being swept from the deck. They were
stupefed with fear. The boats reached the
Rhode Island in safety and all in them goi
aboard.
A picked crew with q gallant off
Ger OF the Rhode Island, Mr.. Brown,
then showed of in launch TO return to
the Monitor. The moon which up to this
time had been throwing some light upon
the waves, was shut in by dense mass of
black clouds.
At one o'clock in the morning, the Mon
itor's light disappeared beneath the waves.
The Rhode Island then started for the spot
where the Monitor was seen to 20 down.
Coston's signals were constantly kept burn
ing and strict lookout kept upon all parts
OF the vessel to catch glimpse of the miss
ing boat.
AT daylight nothing was seen on the wa
tiers, and with heavy heart we ran around
the spot, as near as we could judge, where
the Monitor disappeared, until late in the
afternoon. Several steamers and other
vessels were spoken to learn if possible the
fate OF the missing boat, but none could be
had. The survivors reached Fortress Mon
roe in the Rhode Island.
Nothing whatever was saved except the
apparel OF the officers and crew which they
had on. The conduct of both the officers
and men of the Monitor is beyond reproach
No sign of a panic was visible. Each
stood at his post, confident in his Com
mander, and it was hard TO prevail upon
the men to get into the boats, each willing
to remain by her to the last.
