The NEGRO TRooPs.-It is said that
the rebels are watching with great anxiety
the result of our experiment with negro
soldiers, and that in the event of our sue
cess, they will themselves decree emancipa-
ton rather than come back into the old
Union. The late results at Port Hudson
has evidently alarmed them. A correspond
ent of the New York Times, writing from
Banks army, and who was himself Wit
ness of the her ole deeds of the coored SOL
diers, thus writes -
'sThe deeds of heroism performed by
these colored men were such as the proud

One black Lieutenant actually mounted the
enemys works three or four times, and in
one charge the assaulting party came with

Capt. Cailloux of the First Louisiana, a
man SO black that he actually prided him

OHIo.--The Union State Convention of
Ohio, held at Columbus on Wednesday, was
the largest ever held in that city. The
Hon. John Brough, War Democrat, was
unanimously nominated for Governor. Mr..
Brough was the President of the great
Loyal Convention held few days ago at
Marietta, where he /" defined his position !"

at is scarcely necessary for me to tell
this vast audience here assembled, that from
the days of my boyhood up to this hour,

known as The Democracy and that from
my entrance into it until now, / have never
wavered in its support or been false to it.

pertaining to the general policy Of the coun-
try, Democrat to-day, as have ever been
and as / hope to remain. But in crisis of
this kind, it is principle of my democracy
that the first great duty every man owes is
to his country. And although there is a
President in the chair TO whom have ever
been politically opposed, and for whom
did not vote, yet recognize him, not as the
head of political party, but as the head Of
the Government and, as good soldier
who is fighting in the ranks, it is my duty
to obey him as Commander in-chief, with
out battling TO ask questions in regard to this
great contest. By and by | may have
something TO say of what is being done, but
at present l have nothing 10 utter against it.

questions, but this is no time to cavil. 1t
is not whether this mans rights or that

the question i, what is the duty of every
man 10 his country in this crisis it is
first TO put an end to this rebellion, and

Five Volunteers from one Family.
The following interesting letter is from a
Vermont soldier
"CAMP OF SIXTH VIZ. VOLUNTEERS,
NEAR WHITE-OAK CHURCH. VA,
Nav II, 1868.

"DEAR UScLE:-* Perhaps il
may be of interest to you to know what l
have been doing for the last two years for
our dearly beloved country. You probably
recollect that when saw you last, two
years since, l was high prirate in the
First Vermont Volunteers. Well, ! served
my time out and held my own very well.
After / was mustered out on the 18th OF
August, 1861, wrested for few days
but on the 2sth of August, the day ar
rived at twenty-six years of age, had en-
listed again.
=" AS it was not position or money that !
was going for, l accepted an appointment
as first sergeant, in which position served
faithfully until the 10th day of April, 1862,
when we went into the first real battle, and
was fortunate enough to secure the colors
of the regiment after the color bearer was
shot, and brought them o1t-also the COM
mand of the company deyolved on me on
account of Lieutenant King being wounded.
Bigadier Gen. Brooks saw fit to give me
an honorable mention in general orders, and
appointed me second Lieutenant in my own
company. The Governor of Vermont rsti-
fed it, and at the present time / hold that
rank. / have been in the following battles,
but have not been hit yet, VIII. Lees
Mills; 2, Williamsburg; 8, Golding's Farm;
4, Savage's Station; 5, White-Oak Swamp;
6, Malvern Hills; 2, Cd Bull Run 8,
South Mountain 9, Antietam 10, First
battle of Fredericksburg.
" AT the time of the second and last bat
tie of Fredericksburg ] was at home in
Vermont on a fifteen days leave. In this
las. battle the Sixth Corps Ito which we
belong got hard pushed, and Gen. Howe said
TO Col. Grant, commander Of the Vermont
Brigade, 'On your brigade depends the
safety OF the whole Corps And sure
enough the rest of the division could not
stand the pressure, but either fell back or
disgracefully ran, and left the brigade to
work alone against rebel corps.
+" For the honor of the Staae, let me say
that they, like the Green Mountain boys at
Hubbardstown, stood their ground for a
while, then charged, and had hand-to-hand
conflict, in which they, the Vermont boys,
came off victors.
&c An officer of another corps was heard
to say that the honor of being private in
the Vermont Brigade was greater than to
be Colonel in any other
" David is third sergeant in my company,
Joel is second sergeant in the Twelfth Yer
mont. Hascal Phelps, my step-father's
son, is first sergeant in the Tenth Vermont,
and Oscar Phelps is corporal in the Thir-
teen,h Vermont, making five soldiers out of
one family.

windsor County Court.

In the case, State Us. Francis Holt, the
jury on Saturday returned verdict of
guilty. A bill of exceptions will probably
be allowed and sentence respited. This
trial created much public feeling adverse
to the respondent, who, however, strongly
asserts his entire innocence of having any
thing 10 do with the administering of the
poisonous drugs which produced the abor-
ton. The theory of the defence was that
the medicine was procured and administered
by one Harlow Holt, brother of Francis,
and without his knowledge. Harlow Holt
was indicted jointly with Francis, but failed
to appear, and his bonds, $4,000, were
forfeited, and it was attempted to make
him the scape goat for all the wickedness
and criminality which the case disclosed.
The attempt failed most signally. The
victim of this hellish plot appeared in the
Court, barely able to walk, mere wreck
physically, and soon to be carried to pre-
mature grave.
Monday, June 8.
The Court took up the case of the State
.. Prosper Merrill, being an indictment on
charge of extorting money from Edwin
Conner for the settlement of a complaint
of matter against Conner for which Con-
ner was liable to prosecution.
After the close of the testimony, on
Tuesday, the case was submitted without
argument under the direction of the Court
that the indictment was not sustained, and
the jury without leaving their seats returned
a verdict Of not guilty. Counsel for the
prosecution, Mr.. c. p. Marsh, States
Attorney, and Mr.. Denison. For the re-
spondent, Messrs. Converse and French,
