General 7. W. Sherman.

The telegraph reports the death of General
T. W. SHERMAN, who was severely wounded at
Port Hudson. The following brief notice Of
the life and services of the General We clip
from an exchange:
General Sherman entered the army from the
State of Rhode Island, graduating in 1886,
when he was appointed ID Lieutenant in the
80 Artillery. In May, 1876, he was made q
Captain of artillery, and in May, l849, brevet
Major, "for gallant aud meritorious services at
the battle of Buena Visita," the year previous.
In 1857 he prevented, by his frmuess and pru.
dence, war with certain Of the Sioux Indians.
For many years he was In command of bat
terry of light artillery known as Sherman's Bat,
terry, and on the breaking out of the rebellion
was appointed Lieutenant- Colonel of the 5th
Artillery, in which position his skill and attain.
ments as an artillerist were conspicuouay dis
played. Soon after the battle of Bull Run,
having been appointed Brigadier- General, he
was appointed to the duty Of organizing the
land forces of the Port Royal expedition, OF
which he continued in command until relieved
by General Mitchell, when he proceeded to the
West, remaining there until ordered to the De
psrtment of the Gulf. He has lately been In
command at New Orleans during Gen. Banks'i
absence In Western Louisiana, but upon the
concentration of our forces at Port Hudson as.
sumed his place on the field, and, fighting gall
lantly, fell with the wound from which We are
now informed death has resulted.

The First Loyal League

The Republican papers have made II matter
of boasting, that the first "Loyal League" Or
ganized to support the present Administration
"withous q why or wherefore" was in the city
Of Boston, and that the venerable Josiah Quincy
was elected its President. Why do not the same
journals also state the historical fact that the
same Josiah Quincy was a member Of Congress
in 1912, that he voted against and afterward
signed an infammatory address to his co1st.s su-
ents to excite them to oppose the war With
Great Britain, after the war had actually been
declared by Congress. Another equally signif
cant fact might also be stated In tue same con-
nsction, towit: that the same Mr.. Quincy, at
an earlier period, moved resolution in TIE
House OF Representatives calling for the impeaoh.
ment Of Thomas Jefferson, the President Of the
United States, the author of the Declaration
of Independence and the great Apostle Of Dsmoc-
racy in America. Verify, the selection of Mr.
Quincy to preside over a League, one Of the
objects Of which seems to be to support the pres.
ent Administration in oil its usurpations of DOW
er even to the tearing down of the bul6arks o
popular liberty by q revival OF the alien ant
aedition laws of the old Federal party of which
he was leader, was most decidedly appropri
ate.

MURFREIsBoRo, June 1.-The Chattanooga
Rebel Of the 4th, in an article on the situation,
declares tina. Breckinridge's corps has returned
to Bragg, and that Johnston was so sure In his
position that he needed no more troops.
Breckinridge has never left Bfagg's camp. Il
ia known regiments from two Of Bfeoknridge's
brigades figured in the reconnaissance Of the
4ih OF June.
Rebel pickets refused to exchange papers, and
1t ia supposed the latest issues contained news
of reverses at Vicksburg. Citizens from Shell
byville who reported the surrender Of Vicks-
burg, state positively it had been published in
the rebel papers. Chattanooga papers Of the
7ih and Oh contain nothing regarding it.

Reported Killed.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE opinion is enter
tained In quarters likely to be acquainted with
the facts, that not man has been detached
from Bragg's army since Grant opened the
siege OF Vicksbutg. Gen. Rosecrsns has been
90 watchful, has found means to keep himself
go thoroughly informed as to Bragg's designs,
and has 60 constantly threatened him with an
attack In force, that be has deemed IL impru-
dent to weaken his force in the least. even for
the purpose of attempting to relieve Vicksburg.
BY pursuing this course for the present, Rose
oFans Is believed to be contributing more toward
permanent triumph than he could do even BY
euc1 victory 90 that at Stone river.
A dispatch was received here from an officer
engaged in the cavalry fight at Beverly Ford,
stating that among the iebels killed WAS Gen.
Stuart himself. The report needs confirma
tion.

of the Potomac says:
A few days after he publication of the

the fact of its PRONUNCIATION having been
made known to the rebel pickets, they
manifested great curiosity to FEAR it, and
some of our men conserving to read 1t to

the utmost silence and attention was pre-
served by the lste ing rebels, and after it
was finished one of them called out I:

THE HEEsAN-KING FlGHr.-The up
shot of this atfair--more important TO
many in the community than the Polish
question or the fate of Europe--is al
length announced in our columns. We
accept il very Cheerful ly. We agree wit
the leading sporting authority in England,
before the fight, that any body who could
see anything international in 1t was an
"idiot.n King was an Englishman, of
half Irish extraction, and Heenan was
born in Ireland. The latter was probably
as good a man, or rather no worse than
the former, and the only reason v by we
receive his defeat with complacency is
that we hope it will have tendency to
discourage any more men fr m this coun-
try to participate In such dlsgraeelul at
trays. We have good use enough new
tor all our spare muscle. Heenan, as a
slashlng cavalry soldiers, or even in

A Practical JoKE.-A good practical
Joke is sometimes mentioned In the news.
papers, but we have seldom read one more
likely to produce a good laugh at anoth
er's expense Than the one which is said to
ha blen perpetrated in Jamaica, l.. l.,
few days ago. One of the CITIZENS of
that place went TO answer a ring Of the
door teit at ,ha request IF his wife where
he found basket N which was a beauti-
full child about five months old. The gen
tleman carried it into The house, where
one of the lady visitors took up the baby,
and found a note pinned to its dress which
charged he gentleman with being its father
and mpored him to support it. A rich
scene ensued between the injured wife and
TIE indignant husband, the latter denying
all knowledge of The little one. The friends
interfered and at last the wife was induced
to forgive her husband, though he stuck
to it like Trojan that he had always been
faithful husb md. Finally the lady very
roguishly told him it was strange he did
not know his own child, for 1t was their
mutual offspring, which had just been ia
ken from the cradle for the purpose of
playing joke.

A DEFAULTING Treasury CLERK
CAuGHT.-A case of abstraction of funds
was discovered on Wednesday in the
Treasury Department, which has occa-
stoned much surprise. Exaggerated ru-
mors are prevalent, that Cornwall, Clerk
in the Treasurer's Office, occupying posi-
ton Of great responsibility and confidence,
instead of burning in the presence of wit
nesses, the cancelled demand notes, which
are previously cut in two, adroitly man
aged to slip some Of the packages from
time to time into bis pocket. These he
subsequently exchanged for whole notes,
opportunities to do SO being afforded by
nature ofbis proper duties, but on Wednes-
day bis dishonesty was discovered and he
was arrested. 1t was ascertained that the
entire amount stolen was about Sl00, 900,
a part of which he had invested in $40
bonds. All of this sum it is believed, has
been recovered by the government. Moth
ing has been discovered to show that he
had confederates.

The TENTH VERMONT IN ACTION
The following is an extract from the Off
cal report of Brig. Gen. Morris, Com
handing LIST Brigade, Sd Division, Sd
Army Corps, of the battle of Orange
Grove, Nov. q, 1868:
The enemy was holding fence on the
crest of the hill in our front. and | order
ed the 10th Vermont to charge and take
it. While making preparations to exc
cute this daring duty, | received the same
orders from Gen. Carr. The regiment
advanced IN gallant style and took the
crest. The left wing In its enthusiasm
having advanced too far beyond the fence,
it was necessary to recall it. The Colo
nel's orders being indistinctly understood
on account Of the NOISE, the regiment fell
back to its first position. 1t formed rap
idly and again advanced to the fence,
which it held until the Sd was relieved by
the LIST division about shutdown.

officers and men with too much praise. 1t
was necessary to form the line of battle in
thick wood at the base of the hill, whose
summit the enemy held, protected by a

class of people who are likely to have
been affected by the sophistres and IN
founded assertions Of the Bishop. Pre-
fessor Drisler completely exposes the alb

Hopkins attempts to justify slavery out Of

CHRISTMAS EvE.--The interior of the
Episcopal Church presented beautiful
appearance last evening, being tastefully
decorated with wreaths and arches Of ev-
ergreen. The Rev. R. s. Howard preached
an eloquent sermon from the text, " am
the voice Of one crying in the wilderness,
make straight tho way Of the Lord" A
fine quartette was sung by the choir.
AT the Congregational vestry there
was sabbath school festival, in which the
members Of the congregation generally
participated. After refreshments and sing
ing by the children, and remarks by the
Pastor, Mr.. J. B. Page took his position
by the magnificent Christmas tree which
stood near the desk, and announced his in
tention Of giving out the fruit thereof to
the proper recipients. The first article
which he took off he said was nice
bright new tin trumpet, which was for our
friend-C. G. DEWEY. "We shall expect"
said Mr.. Page, that he will discourse to
us some excellent music before the close
OF the evening" Mr.. Dewey came tor
ward aud received the gift with inlmita-
BILE grace, amid the applause and congrat-
ulations Of his friends.

On THE DOUBLE QuIcK.-We learn
that a certain sharper, who deals in men
for the army, furnished six volunteers to
the selectmen of Sunderland for the sum
Of one thousand dollars. They were en-
listed and taken to Brattleboro, and after
being mustered into the O. s. service,
skedaddled to parts unknown. They got
their money and they wanted nothing fur
Their in Vermont. They will doubtless
try their hand now III some other locality.
Sunderland did her duty, and of course is
not accountable for the loss OF the mem
1t is very singular how they managed to
elude the guard, and we don't believe they
could if those on duty had kept sharp
lookout, as they should. Remington

NIAGARA OU1DoNE.--A detachment
of troops recently scouting in the valley
os the Snake or Lewis forke of the Co.
lumbia, discovered wa erfall which, it is
srid, is entitled to the distinction Of being
called the greatest in the world. The en-
tire volume tf Snake river pours over a
sheer precipice one hundred and ninety
eight feet high, thirty-eight feet higher
MaaNia CARA. Snake rioer as Jnlly as large
as Niagara. and the cascade is one solid
sheet or body. The locality of this i'm
mense waterfall is near the point hereto
fore designated as the Great Shoshone or
Salmon falls Of that river, but they have
always been enveloped in mystery. For
hundreds of miles across the great PLAIN
Snake river flows through canon, with
vertical walls hundreds of feet high. IL
is only at long intervals that salem
points are found by which the river be
reached. The road crosses from point TO
point at the bends, only approaching
close to the river where there is chance
to descend for water. From these facts
very few, if any, of the tens OF thousands
of Adventures that have crossed the
plains ever looked upon the great falls.
The late discoveries report besides the
main cataract many others Of less height
varying from twenty to fifty feet each,
near by. Some day they will be visited

The facts are as We stated t,em, As sam
Piles of the whole circular, we will only no
tioe two things. First, they say they new
ar undertook to dictate to us whom we
should employ. We asked the president OF
the Union-our late foreman---if we could
discharge any of the men thenin our employ
if we acceded to the prices demanded
We were answered that il we discharged
one, all would go, Second-ailer dis
coursing about "rats" as a disgrace to
the "crah,n they say there is one monde
script who was last week am'mber OF the
Union, but "who has .crawlet on his hands
and knees TO the senior proprietor OF the
Herald and begged to be taken back in
his employ at the old wages, which was at
first refused" -....-.
1t is somewhat amusing to see appen-
I'd to this circular, the names of three
printers, who shave crawled, ETC., and
begged to be taken back" just like this
man they call ''nondescript," after their
situations in our Office had been filled.-
They probably relish what purports to be
their own description of themselves. An
other printer, whose name appears sppen-
ded to the circular, is at work in our Of
fee, and never signed it, and We have
good reason to believe that most of the
names affixed thereto are without the sane
ton of their owners. The circular, there
fore, is as bogus as the "Union" was.
Tho Middlehury Register, whose editor
happened to be in town about the time of
the ''strike,n tells the whole story in few
words, Withdrawing the indulgence of
our readers, we will quote, and have done
with the subject. Says the Register:
The Rutland Herald for several days
last week was not issued for this reason :
The printers ofthat town formed "Print-
ers' Union" and refused to work unless
futile & GAY would allow them to
name the wages they they would have,
and pay such and so many men as
they should dictate, FUTILE & GAY,
though willing toincrease the pay of their
met, chose not to surrender the concern
wholly to their management. But the
Herald still lives, and we notice is pub
lished by FUTILE 81 GAY.
