a. H. d. Wood of Stowe, is maxim

a. H. D. Wood of Stowe, is making
preparations for sugaring, and has already
quite supply of tin sap buckets, and
sheet iron pans. Some of the pans are
made from whole sheets of iron, and have
no seams in them, and consequently can,
not leak. He also has a very superior
kind Of cast iron arches, which must be
much better than brick or stone, as it
will not get knocked down as easily, and
will be more durable.

the storm on the gulf, or were the healthi-
est on getting here. Many of the inva-
lids on board that small boat, so poor q
place for so many, and especially In
STERN, have since been laid beneath the
sands and more are daily following. Ev-
ery effort is made that can be made, ten
DERBY to care for the sick. For one sur
geon the task of attending to so many in
valids was very great. Surgeon Blanch-
ard has been in a good degree relieved of
his wearying, and unequal labors. The
arrival of Surgeons Foster and Langdon
from the north was an event we had some
time looked for and was very welcome
These gentlemen have the respect of all
though they have been here but short
time. Their careful and faithful attend
ance on duty promises well for their sue
cess in restoring the regiment to better
state of health, aided by better circum-
stances. | have long thought that doc
tors of right stamp had it in their pow
er to do more good than men of any other
profession, and my recent experience and
observation confirms my former opinion.
May they be kept in good health that we
loose not the benefit of their learning, skill
and faithfulness.
Some few changes have been made
among the officers since last wrote, the

not so in securing so good Col. Though
very young, Vermont may look upon him
as satisfactory in the best sense to the
regiment, upon which he confers honor,
and as promising for the future. Though
soldier he is not destitute of an amiable
and feeling mind. But will close with
