PROM CHICAGO.

CHICAGO, May 5.
Special from Cairo says that the steamer
Lady Franklin, from Vieksburg Thursday
night, brings the report that General shsr-
man, on that morning, with s feet Of trans
ports accompanied by gunboats, passed up
fazoo River and made sn attack on the
rebel batteries In the afternoon several
more transports followed up with troops
on board. The report further saws that
General Sherman landed precisely in the
same place where he landed when he made
his first attack. The cannonading rattle
Of victory was distinctly heard from
Young's Point on Thursday last until long
after nightfall.
We learn from General Leman who left
New Carthage on Wednesday reports thai
a very heavy force landed on the Missis-
sippi side eight miles above Grand Gulf
and that gunboats had been Smelling the
latter place for several days.
LATER.
Special dispatches from Cairo say that
reports that the Federals have occupied
Grand Gulf is premature, the rebels hav-
ing planted batteries on the hill and re-
pulsed our troops.

Rational Entertainments.

Mr.. EDITOR: 1t is not always that the
people of this or any village can meet with
rational entertainments. The school exhibit
ton of Miss Dutton the past week, howev-
er, was of that class and was largely rational
and Instructive One such entertainment is
far more preferable and is worth dozen of
those high-Aown modern concerts where the
highly artistic " music is no more intelligi-
BILE than pagan rites and ceremonies. The
tableaux.were well chosen, we'll timed and
we'll executed, and would do credit to more
experienced managers. The best part of the
exhibition was that there was n, mumbling.
everything being enunciated intelligently
and intelligibly. There is nothing more ri
aiculous than high-hown song where you
can hear not more than one word in ten, and
when the whole subject is thereby broken up.
If song is song Of sorrow not only the
music but the words should talk sorrow if a
song of joy both should equally talk joy
Thoughtful persons after visiting these en-.
tertainmerts would need no further evidence
of Miss buttons fine abilities as :. teache,
as the whole performances were but miro,
OF the thoroushness Of the training the pu
pills had received. The public would be bet
ter off if it were to patronize worth more
and worthlessness less. F. B. G.

The Draft.

The Draft.
The draft is becoming rather interesting.
We learn from Provost Marshal Henry that
the number Of men to be furnished from the
ID congressional district is 1870 per cent
added for exemptions, will make the entire
number to be drafted 2,645. Windham
county G3S; Windsor Oh; Orange 59O
Caledonia 5O3 As the number enrolled in
lis county in the first class is about 1000,
tie present draft will take every third man.
There are three ways to avoid the draft: En-
list, procure substitute, Or pay $500. 1t is
question whether the payment of the mon
cy vii exempt drafted man for three years,
ne arguing that he will be subject to al!
tie drafts that may be ordered in this time,
while if he procures a substitute he will be
released for the whole term. This seems
unjust and we presume the law will not be
St co ,etrued at headquarters. Drafted men
1rc paid the United States bounty the same
Is volunteers. We are not informed wheth-
er drafted men in this district will he COM
PEELED to make pilgrimage to Woodstock
II be examined, but that is the general i'm
preston. There are ten days allowed draft
ed men to pay $500 or procure substitute.
When the draft commences in this district
We are not yet informed but probably shall
be before our paper is published.
Since the above was put in type we have
learned that the draft in this state has been
suspended for the present owing to an error
discovered by Gen. Washburne in our ap-
portionment. 1t seems Vermont has not had
credit for all the men she has furnished, and
Gen. Washburne has been able to convince
the war department of the fact So much
land great deal more) for having compe-
tent, accurate, thoroughly business man fol
Inspector General. When the apportion
tionment is again made the State will have {
less number of men to furnish than the quota
which has just been discovered inaccurate
some say one-third less. Those persons who
have already been drafted will stand thei
chance again.
There have also been some decisions relativ,
to the questions raised in the fcrepart of ,hi
article. The payment of $500 does not ex
empt from further drafts. If the presen
draft, with the fifty per cent. added, does no
furnish the full quota, those who have pal,
the commu.ation are again liable. Thos
who furnish substitutes are exempt. Tn
drafted man cannot pay communication or ful
nish substitute after reporting himself fc
examination. All this is very unjust cor
struction of the law by the war departmer
and not intended by congress in making tn
law.

CAPT. Drew has established recruiting
offices in this and other towns IN northern

and about 50 men are already enrolled. [See

We notice that VIM. Locke provision
dealer, 127 Salem street, received ball
through the feshy part of his thigh in the
rio, in Boston on Tuesday. We presume
thi, is Mr.. Locke formerly of Lyndon.
The Passumpsic bank declared semi

For the benefit of our subscribers in the

We wish Orleans and Essex counties were in

1t will not be best for any who are en-
relied in the first class to take sudden trip
10 the Provinces. Besides the stigma that
would forever attach to the individual who
should be drafted while thus away he would
be liable to be shot as a deserter any time
within three years.
The weather for week past has been
rainy lowery and part Of the time quite
"muggy." Haymakers are looking anxious
" for sunshine, especially those who have
grass down. The hay crop is good, and
and where it is not lodged is growing better
every day. The crops generally are looking
finely, and the small fruits were never more
abundant.
Among those who were once St. Johns
bury boys whose names figure in the draft
We notice in Boston those of Henry L. Clapp
Robert Hale, Charley Barnes, and Carlos
Pierce; and in this State Edward A. Jewett
of Burlington, Rev. H. Garfield formerly Of
The CALIFORNIAN, and w. H. Herrick, who
went out in the Sd Vermont's band. W.
suppose under the new apportionment these
later named persons will stand another
chaace and very likely neither Of them will be
drawn the next time.
Among the prisoners taken by the reb

Shut Up the Rum Holes.

Eight women from the Plain made a
visit to the Passumpsic House, the drug
store and Cook & Bartett's grocery on rail
road street on Wednesday to see if something
could not be done to stop the dealing out Of
liquor to their husbands, fathers and brothers.
They accused the proprietors Of these places
with this accursed traffic, and tried to shame
them into decency and respect for the law.
Some denied thscharge, some got mad, and
others were honest or shameless enough to
acknowledge their crime, or at least not to
deny tit would be folly to deny what every
one knows to be true. 1t has come to a
pretty pass If there is not authority enough,
not public sentiment strong enough in our
village to shut up the rum holes that are
corrupting the youth and feeding poison to
those of all ages. Where are the authori-
ties where are the temperance men? Are
we to wait until these moral pest houses be-
come such nuisance that the women of the
village feel compelled to move in the matter ?
