VERMONT TROOPS IN THE GREAT
BATTLE. ..

The First Vermont Brigade seems to
have been in the reserve on the I'd day of
Gettysburg battle. We infer this from
the diagrams in the N. Y. Herald, from
which it seems that the 9th corps did not
arrive until P. NJ, of the second day.

the 9TH corps both to meet the advance of
the rebel reinforcements on the left
These troops were not engaged. On the
other hand it seems that the Second YER
mont Brigade, embracing the nine months
men, were not in the first days battle !;
but on the second day the first army
corps embracing the I'd Vermont Brigade,
was stationed at the front in the centre,
on Cemetery Hill, and in range of con-
centrated fire of all the rebel batteries,
which were ranged in a semi-circle on
high land in their front. The first corps
held its position all day, and a telegraph
ic dispatch to the Burlington Free Press,
dated at Baltimore, July 9th, says:
The Brigade has done finely. Loss
in three regiments, three hundred and ff-
ty $500 killed and wounded. Twelfth
and Thirteenth not in. Gen. Stannard
wounded in the leg, not severely.
We are uncertain whether this means
that the 18th and 18th regiments were
not in the fight, or that their returns Of
killed and wounded were "not in" Prob
ably they we're not in the the fight, mas
much as a dispatch on the 9th states

From the Springfield Republican, May, 18th.
Public interest now follows the defeated
and flying columns of Lee, and the victo-
rious and pursuing army of the Potomac.
The first reports of the great victory on
Friday at Gettysburg were not exaggera-
tons. The extent and importance of our
success was indeed hardly appreciated,
as it was by such terrible sacrifice of
life But there is now no doubt that the
rebels went into the fight on that day de-
termined to win at any sacrifice and con-
scious that defeat would be ruin. They
fought persistently, desperately, fercely !;
they sacrificed themselves by thousands
in the bad cause of treason, and expert
enced utter defeat Their losses in killed
wounded and prisoners, Was immense and
the army of Lee was so completely beat
en- that it could not renew the contest
and had no alternative but periloIs re-
treat, with q victorious foe close upon
them, and swollen river before them.
The rebels are retreating southwark by
way of Hagerstown. Gen. Meade is fol-
lowing them closely, and on Monday his
headquarters were at Frederick. Gen.
Couch had joined him with his militia,
who were assisting in the pursuit of the
rebels. The latest accounts represent the
retreat of the enemy to have become a
perfect rout, and say that our troops are
slaughtering the enemy and capturing
them by regiments and brigades, and
that Gen. Schenck has already received
over eight thousand prisoners at Baltimore,
and has orders to prepare for twenty
thousand more. Making due allowance
for exaggeration, there is no doubt that
the retreat of the rebels is being made
most disastrous to them, and there is rea-
son to hope for the substantial destruction
Of Lees army. The Potomac is so high
that it will not be fordable for week
the rebel poutoons have been destroyed
and there is every reason to expect that
onr victorious troops will hold the enemy
on this side the Potomac and close in up
on and destroy them. At last the gallant
army of the Potomac has won the victory
and the honor it has so often deserved.
The country breathes freely again, after
season of great apprehension and de-
spopdency, and celebrates the victory in
Pennsylvania with highest joy and
thanksgiving. There will be no further
shrinking from needful labor and sacri-
fee till the work so well begun is CON-
plete and an honorable and permanent
peace is achieved.
Our latest dispatches from Peunsylva-
MIA confirm and add to the favorableness
of the position. Our cavalry fought the
rear of the enemy on Monday, and took
1000 more prisoners. The Potomac is
up SO the enemy cannot cross, and Lee
will be forced to give battle again soon,
or surrender. Would it be preposterou;
to begin to talk about "bagging' again {

Mr.. EpIToR: Last Saturday afternoon,
as the men were saving wood at the depot,
on climbing to to the top Of the pile in one

having a military appearance, was turned
over to Major Austine, who ordered him
taken to the barracks here, and cared for.

Mr.. f. p. Nutting of Northampton, Mass
A telegram was sent to his friends who re-
piled that they would come for the body.
1t seems he was formerly member of the
9th Mass. regiment, but becoming feeble
he was sent to hospital near Washington,
where he remained six months without I'M
provement. He was then sent home on
furlough. This was extended, and on It's
expiration he presented himself to the prop
err authorities, who offered him his discharge
papers which he accepted and came home
After staying awhile, and not getting able
to do much, he became discouraged and dis
heartened, and regretted that he had been
discharged, as all pay to himself and family
was now stopped and in wandering
state of mind, he bought some tickets at
Northampton for Rouse's Point, came as
far as here, bought some laudanum of Iy-
Ter & Thompson on Thursday last, and ev'
identity took enough of that to cause the
sleep of death. He was about 30 years OF
age. man of considerable talent, and leaves
