The daily Green Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1861-1865, 1863-06-09

Gen. Hooker was across the river, and visited
the picket lines on Saturday
The picket firing on Saturday was almost
continuous but yesterday and today our pick
cts have been nearly unmolested, the enemy
firing only when mounted officers ride out to re-
cOnnOter. The result OF the reconnaissance thus
far has been to show that the enemy are still I'D
large force on the opposite side of the river, and
no ind cations are discovered that any consider
able portion of Lees army have been withdrawn
for operations elsewhere.
The following is list of the casualties in the
9th Vt, received in skirmishing yesterday
Killed-John Hines, Co. E.; Albert jeff, L !;

A Hilton Head letter of the 4th reports
raid by 600 of the I'd South Carolina regiment,
under Col Montgomery, into the interior, and
return without loss, with 1000 contrabands, and
a large amount of ether property. r Han,
1t is stated that 5000 might have been brought
off had transportation been sufficient. Fifty Sc
cesh buildings were destroyed.
The 7ribune'S Washington dispatch says DR..
Hewett gives the opinion, from facts which came
to his knowledge during his journey to and from
! Richmond that Gen. Grant will surely take
Vlcksburg, and that the rebels have as good as
given up the attempt to relieve it, g..
He thinks they would make an effort to seizt
and hold some other point on tire Mississippi.
! A Suffolk letter says the rebel report tina
that place was being evacuated, is untrue
