a compelling act. If it becomes law, il
will certainly pu. the colleges in such a
position that they must either unite OF
make it manifest that their union is an
absolute impossibility.
Bills relating to the soldiers have been
very numerous. One of them proposed
to allow soldiers to vote while in camp.
This the legislature would have been very
glad TO allow, but it was found to be con-
trary to the constitution. Another pro-
posed to pay bounty Of $500 to return
ed three years men, and of 5000 to re-
turned two years men. AS this would
use up million of dollars by the time
all the soldiers were paid off, it was tho't
best to use the money in paying military
expenses yet to accrue. Yet another
bill proposed to pay State bounty of
5000 to those who should volunteer to
meet the present call. This would also
use up a million dollars, and the legisls-
ture decided to let each town offer such
bounty as it pleased to its own volunteers.
There are great many crude attempts
at legislation, and some attempts to legis.
late directly contrary to the constitution.
The House actually passed one bill that
was clearly unconstitutional, no one nos
ticing it at the time, no one calling atten-
ton to the fatal error.
There is some reason to hope that be-
fore this letter meets the eyes of your
the legislature will have closed
its labors, having accomplished some good
legislation, and refused to enact some
laws which were urged upon
them. SPECTATOR.

Ca A box of curiosties was exhibited
at the late agricultural fair 10 Randolph

Maria Coulter, teacher. 1t consisted
chiefly of articles sent from New Eng

great depot of supplies at Chattanooga
as base for further operations in that
line. But it would hardly be safe to
gather large supplies where they might
be reached by the enemy's shells from
Lookout mountain. Even if not actu--
ally projected, they might be hazardous
to the accumulation of large stores. To
make this depot safe it would seem to be
necessary to dislodge the enemy from
Lookout. This will require march
similar to that made by Rosecrans, and
a general battle, unless Bragg withdraws
and gives up any attempt to resist But
if the season is too late for this general
movement there are other resources. By
the vigilance and providence Of Gen.
Rosecrans, Notifications in the rear of
Chattanooga were well forward when
our army fell back to that place. In
three days they were in such a state
that ten thousand men could have held
them against assault by any force. 1t is
said they could now be held by FIVE
thousand men. Thus it will be seen
that our occupation of Chattanooga does
not make it necessary that our principal
supplies should be at that place. 1t
would be convenient, but not by any
means Indispensable"

DIED.

In Irasburgh, November 9th, Mr.. Benjamin
! Edmunds, aged SO years.
In Greensboro, Oct 2s, Mr.. Samuel Hill, aged
&c years.
In Lowell, Oct. "a, Irene d. Shedd, wife OF
Joseph c. Parmenter, aged 80 years.
She leaves a husband and large family OF
children to mourn the loss of a tenuer wife and
affeotionate mother, and large circle of rea-
tlyes and friends feel to grieve that one who has
so long sustained the relation of loving sister
and kind friend, has been taken from their
midst, and called topass the dark river of death.
But the way was not dark to her. She gave the
clearest evidence during her sickness that her
trust was founded on the Rock of Ages, and
though her friends feel that the loss is bitter vet
they realize that for her there is no more sor-
row, no more sin. Her troubles and anxieties
for those whom she loved are forever ended and
she has become an inhabitant of that bright city
whose builder and maker is God. Her sickness.
which was long and distressing, was borne with
christian forritude, and not a murmur or COM
planning word was ever heard to escape her lips.
Her attending physician remarked that in all his
experience he never beheld person who had
the patience and resignation in suffering which
the subject of this memoir passed. She fire.
quently expressed her unwavering trust in God,
and made known her wishes respecting the dis
posal other youngest child in case of her death,
which it seems she had long anticipated. The
funeral discourse was delivered by the Rev.
Daniel Warren, pastor Of the congregational
church Of which the deceased had been cor
sistent member for more than twenty years, af-
Ter which her remains were inferred in the viii
lage burial ground, there to slumber until the
resurrection morn,

days since, Mr. j. L. Green, who owns
a pasture in the vicinity of Saliash, found
one of flock of sheep he kept there,
nearly dead from the effects of gun
shot wound, and tive others were missing.
A warrant was procured, and search
made in and about Webster's shanty,

A vICToRY-THE TIDE TURNING.
On Saturday, the rebels, probably an
ticipating a movement of Gen. Mead'
towards Fredericksburg, attempted Il
cross the Rapidan and get possession o
Fredericksburg. They were me. by
Gems. Sedgwick and French, and were
repulsed with heavy losses.
DETAILS OF THE FIGHTING.
Saturday morning. the 9th and 9th
army corps, under command of Maj
Gen. Sedgwick, advanced to Rappaha1-
mock Station, they having the right win!
of the army. The lst, I'd and Sd army
corps, forming tho loft wing undor Maj
Gen. French proceeded to Kelly's ford
When the right wing reached the Rap
pahannock the enemy were found to be
in considerable force, holding this side o.
the river. The rebel batteries, earth.
works and redoubts crowned the banks
on each side of the Rappahannock. Gen.
Scdgwck at once advanced aud stormed
them with great gallantry, causing much
slaughter and taking large number of
prisoners. When Gen. French reached
KelIy's ford, about six miles below Rap>
pahannock Station, the enemy threw
across an entire division to support their
picket line on this side. Gen. French
hastily took position so as to bring his
artillery to bear upon them and proceed
ed to shell them with marked effect, not
only killing large number, but throwing
them into confusion, scattering them
wildly and taking many prisoners. Gen.
French, following up his advantage, i'm
mediately threw the first division of the
third corps, commanded by Gen. Brney,
across the river, which ended his opera
tons for the day.
Sunday morning be crossed the river
with the remainder of his command.
Gen Sedgwick had previously crossed it
and at o'clock Sunday morning, the
two wings had formed a junction and
held both banks of the river.
The enemy after their defeat in these
two engagements were so holly pursued
by our victorious army, that they threw
themselves into the river in their efforts
to escape, where some were drowned and
many were killed by our infantry. All
the artillery the rebels had on this side
was captured. 1t is reported to be seven
guns. Their whole camp equipage IN.
fell into our han9; as thew
were compelled to l!ssave it in their hasty
retreat. Gen. Buford's cavalry crossed
at Sulphur Springs to cover the right
flank several miles above Rappahannock
Station, and Gems. Gregg and Fitzpatrick
crossed below Kelly's ford to cover the
Taft flank. No definite information of
their operations had been received up to
noon. The enemy, after crossing the
Rappabannock under cover OF the light,
moved in the direction of Culpepper, and
The advance Of our forces, supposed to
be cavalry, reached Brandy Station early
on Sunday.
Sunday morning our whole line adj
Vanced, and Gen. Meade no doubt press
ed rapidly forward after the retreating
Zoe. The entire number of prisoners
taken oy both Sedgwick and French is
now believed to be 1926. Orders were
sent to Col. Devereaux at Alexandria, to
provide tor that number. The prisoners
Ire composed principally of North Car
