Correspondence of ,he Worcester Daily Spy.
CARRoLToN, NEAR New ORLEANS, !
Jan. 5th 1868.
We are now at Carrolton, six miles above
New Orleans where we find three companies
of our torty-second regiment in camp, under
command of the lieutenant colnnel. These
companies were on board the Quincy, and
are now joined in camp by us from the Charles
Osgood. The Quincy started to goto Calves
ton inst after we did, and was ordered back
by the same gunboat that hailed us. On the
Sd inst, we started finally to Galveston. A
steamer was discovered bearing down up
on u.s. and soon the stars and stripes were
discovered waving over her. She hailed us,
'Where bound?" Galveston! ~ "AU is lost at
Galeestoa put back to New Orleans y This
produced an excitement on board our vessel.
We put about and started back as fast as sail
and steam would take us. In passing the
guuboats, we ascertained as well as possible
the condition Of affairs at Galveston. Our
regiment fought the rebels four hours at great
disadvantage, and Col Burrill would not sur
render until obliged to do so. We do not
know that any were killed, but many were Sc
verely and some mortally wounded. Our
chaplain, who was captured with the rest, had
about three hundred letters for companies L
and X, and all have fallen into the hands Of
the rebels. 1t is great loss to us, and the
more SO because it is pr bable many
contained money from home. You will
readily imagine the pleasure it afforded
us to reach this camp and once more
greet our comrades, from whom we had been
separated for thirty-tour days. Loud and
enthusiastic were the cheers from deck and
land as we came up to the leyee. There are
several thousand soldiers in camp about here.
Our camp is about half mile back from the
river. and alone by itself. The ground is low
and level, an excellent place for chills and
rheumatism. l am gobbling up some boards
for the purpose of making floor to our tent,
in hopes that it may keep off all diseases which
flesh is heir to- We expect to be comfortable
during our stay here, which may not be very
long. Our destination may be Galveston
again, or Vicksburg. With a proper fleet and
force Galveston can be easily recapturcd and
held. Up the river the fighting is bound to
be severe. Vicksburg cannot be taken with
out the most severe battle of the war. For
one thing | rejoice that we are back here, for
we are just put in possession of letters and
DaDcrs from home What n blnSSinUt and
how jolly we feel! E.

Redemption of Stnmp,.
Posi- OFFICE, WORCESTER,
no 10 1Snn


l mo. 10, 1863
The great pressure caused by the number of
applicants for the redemption of worn and de-
faced postage stamps, makes it necessary to
enforce, rgidly, the rules prescribed by the
post Office department in relation thereto,
which rules have already been published by
me, both in the Spy and Transcript, and also
in handbills, two of which are kept constantly
posted in conspicuous positions in the avenue
or public hall Of the post office. For the ben
eft OF those having stamps for redemption,
repeat the following rule, which MUST be
STRICTLY complied ruth, or their stamps will
be returned to them uneXamned, viz:
''Stamps offered for redemption must be as
sorted according to their denominations; and
stamps of each denomination must be enclosed
in separate wrapper, endorsed with the al
legged number and value. The several par
GELS must then be placed in one sealed envel-
ope, endorsed ruth the name, and tie place of
residence or Of bHsineSe, of the depositor, and
lctth the number Of each Kind and the alleged
aggregate ralue Of the parcel"
The reason of enforcing this rule will be
obvious, from the fact that it is required by
the department. that they have to be so re-
turned and accounted for to the department,
and that itwould require at least one addition
al extra clerk, and probably more, to do the
business, if the rule is not enforced.
Several parcels have been received from
other towns, some Of them from postmasters,
and, in almost every instance, the applicant
has failed to conform to the above rule The
rules have been sent to every Posi- OFFICE in
the country, and should be publicly posted
there, where all The people can have access to
them. J. NJ. EARLE, z. NJ.

Mr.. SUMNER RE-ELECTED.-The state of
Massachusetts has done only what was due to
ITSELF. and what every one who valued its
credit hoped and expected would be done, in
re-electing Mr.. Sumner to the United States
senate. He has always taken a prominent
part in the deliberations of the senate; he is
fine scholar, a man of integrity, and an eo-
quent speaker, laborious and conscientious in
the discharge of his duties. He has been,
moreover, the object of such rabd and indis-
criminate abuse on the part of those slavehold-
ing aristocrats who are the authors and leaders
Of the rebellion, that not to have reelected
him would have been considered by the rebels
a concession of the justice of their abuse, Just
as JEFF Davis holds the supercedure of Gener-
al Butler to be justification of the rebel
charges against that officer, and ''as an admis-
sion Of his guilt" No man of spirit but will
rejoice that no such opportunity for compla-
cent Boosting was given by the old Bay State.
Apart from this peculiar occasional necessity
for the selection, Mr.. Sumner in himself

SKATING.-The cold weather which COM
menced Friday night found the ponds in this
vicinity free from snow, so that on Saturday
the skaters were favored with glarer surfaces
and greater expenses of ice than has been
known for long period. Salisbury pond was
never in better condition, and in the afternoon
was covered with skaters. Quinsigamond
pond was good in many places, but being
open in others was hardly safe for large par
ties. 1t will undoubtedly be superb skating
there in day or two.

nominated by the republicans with great unan-

earnest republican, of great executive ability,
and irreproachable personal character. The
senatorial election in New York is deferredby
the still unsettled contest for the speakership
The California legislature was at last advices

republicans. New Jersey elects James w.

tors are about expiring have completed their

Cry OF THE DEAD.-0n the French coast,
near the mouth Of the Garonne, town has
been discovered buried in the sand and Il
church has already been extracted from the
sand. Its original plan shows it to have been
built toward the close of the Roman empire,
but changes made in it had given it the APP
pearance Of an editice OF mixed style, in
which Gothic architecture has usurped the
place OF the Roman. Its original paintings,
It's admirable scIlpured choirand Roman capt.
tails, are adorned with profuse ornaments,
which are attracting numbers of visitors This
temple is all that remains of those cities de-
scribed by Pliny and by Strabo; the Gulf of
Gascony abounds in ruins Of these ancient
cities. 1t has been 1900 years since Noyiga-
mas, the old capital OF Medoc, which was
celebrated city when the Romans were mas
tiers OF Gaul, was buried under the ocean, of
all that tract of territory, the Roche du Cor
douan alone is visible. The remains of Ro-
man roads, the site of Jupiter's temple, the
vestges of the Spanish Moors, and the road
Of Elconore du Guyenne, have been rescued
from the sands in the neighborhood of the
long buried city Of Soulac. Nowhere have
the erosions of the ocean been greater than
ON the coast of Gascony.

Two BoYs DRowNED.-A melancholy ac-
cident occurred near Fayville on Tuesday
last Two little boys, sons of Mr.. John
Maley, named John and Thomas, aged re-
spectively six and thirteen years, while skat-
ing on the mill pond, broke through the ice
and were both drowned. 1t is not known
how long they had been in the water when
their absence was discovered. Their little
caps were found on the ice, but none know
what were the circumstances attending their
deaths. About an hour after it was known
they were drowned, their bodies was recov-
cred. The parents reside in Fayville. 1t is
supposed one fell into the water, and in the
exertions of the other to help him out he
also was drawn in and both died together
