Sg How far the copperhead movement
IN the North invited and encouraged the
present rebel invasion of Maryland and
Pennsylvania, ii is impossible to say, but
there can be no doubt that the speeches of
Vallandigham and Wood have encouraged
the rebels with the idea that they have
friends in the North who would offer them
sympathy if net substantial aid. The doc
trlnes OF these men tend most directly TO
weaken the Government in its efforts to
subdue the rebellion by force of arms, and
OF course tend 10 the same extent to strength
en- the rebels in their attempt to achieve
independence by the same instrun entail
ties.

VERY NATURAL.-The rebel Gen. Jen.
kins treats the copperheads with perfect con.
tempt. A correspondent says:
"When Jenkins was at Chambersburs he
engaged in conversation with Union man
AS the former was speaking copperhead
stepped up, made himself and his senti.
ments known, and very obligingly offered
to lmpart any information which might be
desired. Jenkins glanced at him for mo.
ment, and then, with an expression of coun-
tenance that nearly frightened the skulkino
vagabond out of his wits, ordered him TO
leave his presence, remarking that ifhe had
him on the other side he should adorn the
first tall tree they came to-"
Many of the rebel Generals, though de-
luded, are honorable and high-minded men,
and it is impossible for them not to feel con-
tempt for the mean and craven-spirited
wretches who are traitors 10 their country
and its government. Stonewall jackson
once stripped the shoulderstraps from an IN
worthy officer in the Union army who had
skulked from his regiment when it was 60
ing into battle, suffering himself to be cap
tured.

The Officers of the 9Th regiment Yer

respect for the memory of Capt. John l..
Clark, of Co. X, and Capt. S. G. z. Craig,
of Co. G, and their sympathy with be-
reaved relatives, met in Camp near Alex
andria, La, and adof ted the following reso-
lutions
ReSoiped, That, as we have met with an irrepar.
able loss in the deaths Of respected brothers in
arms, Capt's CLARK and Craig, we deem it
privilege and due TO their bravery and many mer-
its to declare TO the people of Vermont our loss,
which also is theirs, and to express our sympathy
to those friends who monrn their loss at home
ReSolred That in our intimate and friendly re-
laons with the two deceased brothers for the past
fifteen months, we have found them worthy the
name of officers at home among the bleak hills
and cold SHOWS Of Vermont, kind and genial com
nanions; AMID the trials and dangers of the sea-
willing TO endare more, that the harships of others
might be less; on the sandy isles of the ocean,
earnest laborers that their comrades might be eff
fective; in the breeding swanIps of the
South, active and efficient; in camp, kind cordial
anu iTlehuiy on the marcn, wiling and patient
IN action, possessing that stern bravery that knows
no defeat, that appreciates danger and faces it.
Resoiced, That by their promptness in obedience
they have won the appreciation of their superiors
that although they did not fall upon the battlefield
but by diseases brought on by constant labor and
exposure in an unhealthy climate still their lives are
no less sacrifice on the altar of their country, and
that as the ohe lies in the tomb of friends found
even among enemies, the other in his grave where
one month since the flag which covered his re-
mains was known only TO be tramplcd under foot
their virtues will be initiated and their names kind
ly cherished in our memories.
ReSdced, That we tender to their families our
most hearty and sincere sympathy and coincidence
IN their affections, for although they have died in
the service of their country-the most glorious Of
deaths-and may well be envied therefor nature
bids us mourn for the departed and the circum-
stances OF their deaths only, in measure, re-
iieVe our grief that it came so soon.
Resoieed That copies of these proceedings be
sent to the Vermont press for publication, and for
warded to their friends at home.
