OFF TO THE WARS AGAIN.
Brattleboro. Dec 25. 1867

Brattleboro, Dec %, 1868.
Mr.. EDITOR Before leaving the state,
| wish to say a very few words to you and
the friends generally up that way. And
first, please find enclosed the amount you
claim as your due for the Nevsdeaier, for
the past and present year. Please send
my wife receipt for the same.
Secondly i recollect of reading, some
time ago, Farewell to Brattleboro,'
written by one who had been doomed to
spend more time here than | have; yet |
can give something of guess of his feel
ing when the prospect of leaving dawned
upon him, yet | have no particular fault
to find. Our fare mas not been of the
most sumptuous nature since we have been
here, yet it goes with a relish. choke
occasionly as think of the thousands of
our men suffering in the earthly hells Of
Richmond, tormented by the semi-human
fiends, who would gladly eat of the
crumbs that fall from our table. Sergt.
Gilman tells us, that tomorrow morning
we shall have as good breakfast in, New
York as any person need ask for, supper
at Baltimore fit for king, and breakfast
at Washington nearly as good as we have
had served up for us since we have been
in "Brattleboro." The boys are in the
best of spirits, singing in strains of "har-
mony extraordinary
"We're raw recruits with brannew suits,
And six hundred dollars bounty, -
The boys are focking in by the hun
dreds every day, and others leaving
About five hundred have been sent off
since came here, one week ago. Two
hundred and fifty leave to-day.
Come on, boys for If this call is filled
without resorting to the draft it will do
more towards crushing the rebellion, than
would the taking of Richmond.
The drum beats for us to fall in, for our
bounty and advance pay. We shall soon
be speeding our way to the land Of strife,
and | must stop. You may hear from
me again. B. F. HULBURD.

BIG PIG.

Mr., EDITOR II helped dre7s a pig,
last week, for my neighbor, Mrs Stod-
dard, that was nineteen days less than a
gear old, which weighed, when dressed
and drained, 1852 pounds. Now, if any
man has beat this widow, in getting up a
big pig, this year, on the same common
keeping, in this same "Spunky Eamoille"
please give us the facts and figures. at
test that the above is all correct.

DEATH OF JAMES NJ HENRY, EsQ.-We
learn that James NJ. Henry Esq. of Wa
terbury. died on the 2Sth inst, aged "a
years. This event has not been unex-
pected as for some months his health has
been failing. Few men have been so ex-
tensively known as Mr.. Henry, through
the large business in which he has been
engaged for several years, and he had at
tanned high degree of respect, not only
in his town, which he represented in the
Legislature, but throughout the State. and
in neighboring states, where his business
led him. We regret in him the loss of
good friend and patron. Funeral at Wa
terbury on Wednesday, Dec. 80, 2 O'Clock

THE SANITARY FAIR.

The Sanitary Fair which closed at Bos-
ton on Monday last, was spIenaid sue
cess. 1t is estimated that the total re-
ceipts will foot up about 100000. The
crowd of visitors wa. frequently so greet
about the entrance as to render it neccs4
sary to close the doors to relieve the pres
sure. There were contributions OF every
kind, from steam fire engine and horse
to pictures framed 10 wood with poker.
In the curiosity department were many,
very noticeable things, among them nus
merous relics of Washington-his sash,
saddle epaulettes and cane, with several
autographs and letters; a shirt of mail
which went to Mexico with Cortez in
1926; bronze jar from Shang hae, 2O00
years old a cradle owned by Gov Dud-
ley, 1884, the sword of Miles Standish I;
the lock of the gun which killed King
Philip of Mount Hope in 1876, and a
wooden bowl taken from Phillips wig
wan; picture of the Hancock house IN
1857, by Miss Hannah Otis, sister of
james Otis; the coat worn by len Frank
lin when he signed the treaty of alliance
with France in l779; manuscript copy
of Home, Sweet Home, y by the author,
John Howard Pay ne; splendid specimens
of the Gobelin tapestry, taken from one
of the French palaces at the dedication
of Louis PHILIPPE; ancient manuscripts
and books, presented by r. G. Waterson,
including Bible printed in Venice in
1873, before printing was introduced into
England, and numerous rare and genuine
autographs and letters.
The only thing to be regretted by Yer
monters is that in this Fair their State
made a comparatively meagrc show. YER
mont has done very much in other ways
for the benefit of the sick and wounded
soldiers. but she was behind her sister
states in this instance. Judge Russell
nevertheless SAID, in his closing address,
I'VE owe especial thanks to the citizens of
New Hampshire and Vermont. They
have been as liberal of their bounty as
they have heretofore been lavish of their
blood "-Ruttand Herald.

DISCOMFORTS OF TRAVEL IN THE
SOUTH.

The southern correspondent of the Lon
don Times writing from Georgia, under
date of October 9th descants as follows
upon the condition and management of
the rail roads in Dixie He says:
AS to the question whether you will
start in one hour, in six, or in twelve, it
argues great inexpelience in Confederate
rail road travelling if you exhibit any
inquisitiveness on the subject. You will
be told there is no "schedule" or ti,ne-ta-
BILE according to which locomotion is d.
rected, but the trains arc said to be run
ming wild, which means that so soon as
train arrives at Chichamauga, and it
suits the convenience of its conductor to
start again for Atlanta, he "puts out"
trusting to the steam whistle of the en-.
CINE and to the enormous lamp which
glares forward at the foot of each engine
chimney to avert the collision which the
single line of rails and'the careless econ
omy Of the trains render only too proba-
bic.
Frequent as are the accidents upon
these railroads, the only wonder is that
they are not ten times more frequent. 10
begin with, there is the single line; then
there are trestle bridges over the innumer-
able rivers and creeks. which are carried
away every freshet or food in the stream,
and which creak and tremble as the train
passes in such fashion as would, in Eng
land, elicit one hundred letters per diem
to the Times from agonizcd passengers.
Then, there is the defective state of the
rails, which are constantly and in many
places worn down to thread, not thicker
than lady's little finger. Other posi-
biltes of accident there are by dozens,
arising from such casualties as cows and
hogs upon the track; but | have said
enough tojustify the prevailing sentiment
that it is safer to go into action than to
take long journey by rail in the Con-
federacy.
The passenger once started for Atlanta,
will before he arrives there, although the
distance is only 100 miles, probably have
time for extensive self-communion. Upon
my journey up, and upon my journey
down, ] was, in each instance, two nights
and the better part of two days in the
train; but have heard of luckless pas
sengers who passed four days and nights
In the cars, and who, if they had started
for Atlanta on foot, might reasonably
have expected to get there on their own
legs more quickly than they were actually
delivered by steam, without the misery
of passing four nights in a box-car. 1t
will be imagined that passengers suffer-
ings for food are much the same as he
would expect if he took trip to Timbuc-
too. Parched corn--that is to say, maize

HURRY UP THE EsLisrMENTs.

After the fifth of January no more high
bounties arc to be paid by the Govern
inent, and all who are DESTROYS of enlist
ing and wish to get a LIBERAL bounty. had
better make haste. The quotas for the
several towns, on the last call, are all full
except Cambridge and there remains only
a few men lacking to make up the def
cheney on the draft The 18th Regiment
however, is far from being filed, and
there is an Office at Morrisville, where re-
crults are received. Every veteran. who
re-cnlists in the Seventeenth Regiment, or
in an old regiment, previous to January
9th, will receive the bounty of four hun
dred and tsc0 dollars, Those who enlist
subsequent to that day will receive boun-
ty of but one hunderd dollars.
Hyde Park is ahead on the call for vol.
unteers, and has enlisted eleven men to
supply her deficiency on the draft, and
now stands clear of all charges for men.
johnson has answered the call upon her !;
Waterville and Belvidere have been ahead
all the while; Cambridge, on Monday,
was behind IA men, but making great e(-
fort to I'll up, and it is certainly hoped
that she may be successful. Cambridge
stands draft well. The number called
for from that town on the draft was 80
men, and she furnished them immediate
ly. Now 20 volunteers are called for, and
she "hangs fire r Eden holds town
meeting to-day to consider whether she
will pay bounty to men to make up her
deficiency on the draft. Morristown has
done her duty; Wolcott and Elmore are
not behind Stowe has furnished her quo
ia on the last call but is ten behind on
the draft. There are only five days more
in which if men enlist they will receive
the present liberal bounty from the gov
erment and the obtaining of recruits af-
ter that time, will be much more difficult
than now. Let us clear up all charges
standing against "Spunky Lamoille," and
secure for her sons all the benefit of Tn.

ty the COED name she has heretofore so

THE CRAIG MICROSCOPE We have
frequently desired to be the possessors of
a good Microscope, but have found the
cost of one-of the proper magnifying
power--to be so great that we have been
forced to leave our investigations and Gu
riosity unsatisfed. The Craig patent,
which has been before the pnblic about a
year, and which is meeting with most
unexampled sale, has given the public an
instrument which combines the desirable
qualities of cheapness and excellence
For all practical purposes, We regard the
Craig Microscope. which can be purchased
for So, equal to any compound Microscope
costing $40 to $40. In one respect-and
that very important one--it is better,
fer the reason that the focus is always
adjusted. Under the lens of this instru-
ment the cheese mite, which is barely to
be seen with the naked eye. becomes re-
spectacle frog; fly's toe-hail, an ugly
looking claw drop of vinegar, a lively
looking aquarium; ond drop of blood,
piece of elegant mosaic work, with dis
tinct arrangement of the corpusclcs in
that of man and that of animals. With
this little instrument, so cheap and yet so
perfect, one may pursue his investigations
at leisure, and obtain recreation at the
same time that he is acquiring knowledge.
We do not believe that S2 can he more

VERY PLEAsANT.-Professor Agassiz,
in late lecture in Springfield. Mass.
said: :" Boys and girls, men and women,
should be less clustered. They should
be associated in the school, on the farm
and in the shop. Their influences should
be pure and healthful, and thus would the
race attain more perfect development.
Society will then be put on a higher foun-
dation."
