EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT,
BRArTLEBoRo, May 22d, 1863. {
Hon. T.. NJ Stanton, Secretary Of Var,
Washington, ID. c.:
SIR,--I have been thinking for sometime past
that would write you, briefly expressing my
individual conviction that it will be better for the
Government to fill the old three years Vermont
Regiments than TO consolidate them. | believe
that none OF our old Regiments are yet red aced
in numbers to the point Tor consolidation but
thsy are liable to be so reduced before long
have an impression that as general rule, it viii
be better to fill all old and well-proved Regi-
ments in the United States service than to con-
solidate them.
Consolidation will dismiss in a somewhat rough
and summary manner many valuable officers, at a
time, too, when the Government needs the aid Of
oil good men, and especially of all good militia
~ officers and it will also create great deal ol
unpleasant feeling in the army.
The Volunteers who early enlisted for three
years, or the war, are, as whole, characterized
by more active and ardent patriotism than the
same number OF persons at home, who could 90,
but have not yet gone, into the service. The Vet
eran Regiments are worth more TO the Govern
ment to-day even when simmered down to not
more than three hundred well disciplined able
bodied men, than any new and green Regiments
Of one thousand men each, that the Government
can procure. The Veteran Regiments have borne
the heat and burden Of the war, all Its trials, re-
verses, disappolnments and discouragements
they still stand up firmly anu nobly to their du-
ties, desire to fight the war though to success
ful termination, and should be permitted to pre-
serve their organization aud a continuous record
during the war, or their period of service.
know that the old Vermont Regiments are wor-
thy Of all now say. Their conduct and seryi-
ces in their recent battles at Fredericksburg
prove It,
True, unworthy officers and worthless soldiers
found their way more or less into all the old Re-
gments at tie outset , but all such characters
have been pretty generally sfted out, so that the
remainder is now choice a1d reliable.
Filling up the old Regiments, 'hereiore, rather
than consolidating them, will, as it appears to
me, be as polite, as it will be just and generous
on the part Of the Government.
Excuse me, Sir for thus volunteering my opin-
ions. | do it with due respect for the decisions
of the Government and with no thought but to
cooperate energetically in such measures as the
Government shall Judge best to be adopted.
am, with high regard,
Your ohedient servant,
FREDERICK HOLBROOk.
Governor Of Vermont.

AT POET ROYAL.

~ AfA-A
Ihe tent lights glmmsr Il the land,
The ship-lighls on the sea
The night wind smoolhs With drifting sand
Our track on lone Tybee.
At last our grating Eeels outside,
Our good boats forward swingi
And while We ride the land locked tide,
Our negroes row anu sing.
For dear the bondmAn holds his SITS
ofmusic and ofsOpgi
The gold tha, kindly Nature sifts
Among his sands OF wrong
The power to make his tolling days
And poor home-eon forts please
The quaint relief u mirth that plays
with sorrows minor keys.
Another glow than sunsets Are
Has allied the West with light,
where field and garner, barn aud byre
Are blazing through the night
The land is Wild with fear and hate,
The rout runs mad and fast
From hand to hand, from gate TO gate,
The tanning brand Is passed.
The lurid glow falls strong across
DARK faces broad with smiles;
Not theirs the terror, hate, and loss
That Ore yon blaling piles
With oar-strokes timing to their song,
They weave in simple lays
The pa,hos Of remembered wrsng,
The hope OF better days
The triumph-note that Miriam sung,
The Joy Of uncased birds
Sorening wi III Afric's mellow tongue
Their broken Saxon words

Drafts An Missouri.

There was one suggestion in General
Blsir's speech, in response to the Sore
made few evings since, that We can es-
peciaify commend. He said the dra Il in
Missouri must go on that he had been
informed that Gov Gamble was trying to
prevent draft in this State, and if such
was the fact he would find him Frank
Blair against him.
Gen. Blair was right in this. A draft
10 Missouri is necessary for many reasons.
Treated a. question Of political econo-
my, it il one Of the highest Importance
in national point OF view. Nothing
would tend more to elevate our character
as nation, to give confidence in the
strength Of our Government, and thus ad-
vance its credit, then the enforcement of
the draft throughout the length and
breadth of the land.
Ina national point Of view, then, pa
triotism demands Of US in Missouri. and
else where, q cordial acquiescence in the
draft, and an honest support OF the Gov
srnmsnt in ito enforcement. In Missou-
ri, there are local reasons for its enforce
ment. 1t has tendency to consolidate
public sentiment. Heretofore we have
had our hearths and homes defended by
loyal volunteers. Many Of those hearths
and homes have been enjoyed BY class
Of people who profess loyalty with their
lips, but who nurse, if they do not Prac-
tice, treason in their hearts.
