OFFICIAL FROM GEN. GRANT.
WASHINGTON, July 8.
A dispatch from Gen. Grant to Gen
Halleck. dated at Vick.burg at 1890. on
the morning of the 4th Of July, states that
the rebels surrendered this morning, and
that their troops were paroled as prisoners
of war.
The movements about to he made by
the forces Of Gen. Grant, are detailed, bu,
they are not proper for publication at
present.
CAIRo. July 8.
The number Of prisoners taken by Gen
cral Grant at Vicksburg was $1,000,
about one half of whom are said to be
either sick or wounded. 1t is reported by
newspaper correspondents who have arriv.
ell here to-day that all the prisoners were
paroled. This il some respects would
seem improbable. Paroles have been ex-
tended to sick and wounded soldiers Only
The reason assigned. however, for this
transaction, is that he has no men to spare
to guard prisoners. and no transports to
send them North, his men are to be used
on better missions than guarding prison.

The Exploits of Grierson's Cavalry

Grierscn's cavalry in their grand raid
through Mississippi went more than 800
miles in IL days, fighting wherever they
met with opposition. They killed and
wounded large number of the enemy, and
| destroyed over four millions of dollars worth
of property which would have been of i'm
mense assistance to the rebels in the prose-
cution of the war. On two important rail-
roads they completely cut off all communi-
cation with the stronghods Of the enemy.
They took over Thousand prisoners, cap
tured over 1909 horses, and menaced the
enemy at points where they were least ex-
peced. an idea of their activity may be
formed from the fact that they travelled
seventy-fve miles. fought four battles,
skirmished considerably, forded river, and
all of the time neither man nor horse had
anything TO eat.
| Every effort was made by the rebel Gen
erals Gardner and Pemberton for their sur
prise and capture; but in every instance
the enemy were completely outwitted by
Col. Grierson's strategems and rapid march
es. The mails and couriers captured kept
our forces constantly in possession of the
latest news concerning the movements Of
the rebels and their intended plans for our
4 capture. During their march an effective
force of at least 5000 cavalry were sent
against them, which wherever met, was de.
| feated by our men, with heavy loss to the
I rebels. The expectation of the rebels was
= that Col. Grierson would attempt to return
TO Lagrange even after he had reached
. Hazlehurst. They in consequence laid
) most of their plans TO capture him on his

Our Next Governor.

Several Of the State papers have recent
-ly alluded to the subject of the next Gov.
ernor of Vermont, and several good names
have been suggested for that Office. Among
these are Lt.-Gov. Dillingham; of Wa,erbu
ry, John Gregory Smith Of St. Adams, Lev
Underwood Of Burlington, Hon. j. S. Nor
rill, and Gov. Holbrook's reelection ha,
also been suggested.

serious consideration. "rf5.
We have no particular interest to further
or any particular friend or friends to serve
in this matter, and are not conscious of any
prejudice whatever, when we cay that il
would no doubt be for the interes: of the
State that Gov. Holbrook should be re-
elected. This interest arises from the fact
that the duties Of the Governor, on accoun,
of the war, have been greatly multiplied
and are of vastly more consequence and
. importance than at any former period in the
history Of our State. BY his reelection
the State secures the benefit Of his expert

He has now all the war apparatus and ma
chinery of our State government at Brat.
t'eboro. At that place large camp ground
for our soldiers has been conveniently ar.
ranged, barracks have been built, and a
large hospital erected for the sick and
wounded. Now if all this property, and
the military headquarters OF the State are
to be transferred 10 some other locality, il

expense to the State. II may be said ,hat

SAD INCIDENTS OF THE WAR.-As the
steamer Vanderbilt approached Troy, n.
Y, with the returning Troy regiment on
board, there was observed among the many
eager faces that awaited the landing. a
woman bearing in her arms small Child,
to whom she said in joyful accents, Now
we'll see papa" As the vessel drew near
she saw one of her husbands comrades on
the deck and inquired of him -" Where's
my Jimmy 2" He was killed in the last
battle was the terrible response. The
poor woman gave a shrek of agony, and
would have fallen had not the by-standers
supported her. After indulging for time
in an agony of grief, she went away with a
heavy heart-her hopes blasted in a mo-
mcnt. tf-
Among the throng from abroad who Wis
tied Elmira, N. Y. to join in greeting the
23d regiment on its return home. was a
young lady, the betrothed of Capt. Clark
of the 23d, who came to meet her intended.
The train came. but instead of bringing
the young Captain full of life and with
buoyant hope. it brought his corpse. He
had been killed hut few hours before near
Williamsport, by coming in contact with a
bridge. The lady was overwhelmed with grief
and was borne away by sorrowing friends.

Too sensitive by Hair.

Gen. Halleck, in a letter to the Sumter
meeting in New York, writes as follows =
"We have already made immense pro-
gress in this war--a greater progress than
was ever before made under similar circum-
stances, Our armies are still advancing,
and, if sustained by the voices of the patri-
otto millions at home, they will ere long
crush the rebellion in the South, and then
place their heels upon the necks OF the
sneaking traitors in the North" ys
This seems, to an unsophisticated intel
lect, very proper and unobjectionable re-
mark. 1t is to be presumed that all right
minded and loyal men desire to "crush the
rebellion in the South" and that they will
be equally anxious to place their "heels
upon the heads Of sneuking traitors in the
North" Every resource of the country Il
strained to destroy the Southern traitors
and it is therefore somewhat hard to per-
ceive why traitors of the Northern variety,
and +" sneaking" ones at that, should be the
objects of tender solicitude. But, strange
as it may seem, the publication of Haleck's
letter has exercised certain Democratic ed
iors in decidedly lively style. The Prov
idence Post puts on the coat, and by its
waspish remarks shows ii to be in re.
markedly nice fit. The New York World
perfectly foams with rage, and says that, by
sneaking traitors" Halleck undoubtedly
meant the Democrats. But why should he 7
He is Democrat himself, of the. strictest
sect, and of course would not indiscriminate-
ly abuse his old political friends, large por-
ton of whom do not deserve any such stig-
ma. Perhaps he World knows some Dem

But it is rather imprudent for it to admit,
as it virtually does, aohom it considers the

1t was said Of certain eminent English

construe denunciation of " sneaking
traitor into an insult to the whole coun-
Try" Hear it =
at is a singing insult to the whole coun-
try that bis atrocious threat should be made
under his official signature by the highest
officer in the army, who, dressed in a little
brief authority and swollen with the inso-
lence of office, thus signs himself in letter
addressed 10 popular meeting"
After this, people must be careful how
they denounce sneaking traitors, for fear o.
wounding the sensibilities of some tender
hearted Democrat of the Wood and Yallan
digham school. There is no danger, how
ever, that Dickinson, or Butler, or Ban
croft, or any of that style Of Democrats, vii

A Washington correspondent, writing un-
der date of May 11th, says:-
" Gen Hooker is now lying very i'll at
Falmouth, in consequence, mainly, as is be-
lieved, of the terrible shock be received
from a cannon ball during one of the ear
lier days Of the operations at Chancellors-
vile. The ball struck a pillar of the house,
against which he was leaning at the. time.
He was knocked TO the ground, and re-
manned senseless for taoe',ty thirty nst,,'ttes.
1t is impossible that he could have recov-
cred from such shock SO as to have been
qualified TO enter again Gas he did) upon
duties SO weighty that the strongest might
well bend and tremble benea them.
Shortly afterward Gen. Hooker had a
still more remarkable escape. Still feeling
weak and dizzy from the shock, he left the
command temporarily with Couch, with
orders to be called instantly, on the appear,
ance of an emergency, and lay down in hi:
tent. Presently he began to feel faint, SIGH
at the stomach, and oppressed with the no
close atmosphere of the tent, and went GU
