HOSPITAL SUPPLIES NEEDED.

DIR. E. E. Phelps, Medical Director for
the State of Vermont, publishes an arti-
Gle in the Phoenix of this week asking
flor contributions of be%dclothing, &C., for
hospital use. He states that an arrange
ment has been made with the War De-
partment by which the Vermont sick and
wounded soldiers will be transferred from
the southern hospitals to the U. S. Hos
pitfalls at Burlington and Brattleboro. The
large barrack buildings near the General
Hospital at Brattleboro will be at once
fitted up forming a large hospital Of 500
beds. The U. S. Government has furn-
ished $50 beds and equipments complete ;
there are on hand materials for 80 more !;
leaving 800 beds to be fitted out. DR..
Phelps appeals to the Ladies of Vermont
for supplies,-Free Press.
DR.. Phelps says that what we do should
be done quickly, as the want of bedding
is the only reason why the disabled Yer
monters are not sent to this State imme-
diately. An outfit for a bed is as follows:

April 27, 1868.
DEAR M*+*#*
have been placed in possession of two
sheets of paper, ornamented with an engray-
ing Of vicksburg, place that this war has
rescued from comparative obscurity, and
invested with an interest and celebrity not
inferior to the most renowned cities of an
Gent or modern times, and upon the fate of
which the eager eyes of the whole civilized
world are turned one portion sn1iousy
looking for, and expecting its downfall, the
other hoping and praying that it will with
stand the shock of battle, throughout the
protracted an unequal contest, and exhibit
to the gaze Of wondering millions the glori-
Gus symbol Of our young Confederacy, high
above its battered rampsrts, storm, but flying"
Whatever may be its ultimate destiny, it
has already become q place Of historic prom
insnce, and will live in song and story as
long as thought and language shall endure
Unborn millions will linger, in mute as-
Constituent, over the page that records the
ralor and heroism of her patriotic defenders,
even when their names shall have been lost
in the rolling murmurs of the by-gone, and
the hills which have rocked to the tread of q
mighty soldiery, and trembled beneath the
roar of artillery, will become invested with
classic grandeur and renown that will ex-
cite the admiration of all ages and nations,
even Gown to the --latest syllable of recorded
time"
Poetry will commemorate, in heroic and
undying verse, the brilliant achievements OF
the past and the present, and sigh, in mourn
full numbers, over its melancholy fall, should
the fortunes of war so determine. This
cruel, unnatural war has given birth to ro-
mances of deeper dye, and tragedies Of wider
interest, than the pen of novelists ever
wrote, and Vicksburg is not without bel
share. Some future Cooper will weave into
the many colored hues of romance these
campfire experiences, and throw around
the unhonored graves Of those who poured
out their hearts best blood in its defense
that respect which is due TO their memories
but unacknowledged by the world, known
and felt only by the survivors Of many
scene Of fearful conflict
vicksburg is immortal, though her bate
ries may be dismantled, and her gallan
soldiers forced to retire before the counties
hosts that now threaten her with destruc
ton.
Centuries may roll away, and, like Priam'
capital its ruins may alone mark the spo
of its former greatness, but, like the prince
and heroes Of Ilium, its chief defenders vii
find the record of their welldoing on th
page of history, which will survive the wrec
of matter, and invite the sympathy and ad
miration of oil after time.
The curious traveller, or wandering phi

rI,EELECTION.

There are but three weeks TO elapse
hctore election day in Iowa before the
peopls will be called upon to decide Tor
,her veal or their woe. through the bai-
Ia, box. The time is short, SO very
short that it were sio TO waste a u O.
men, that en- he used in furthcrIng the
;o,er.s,s of the democratic ticket. The
condition Of the political parties as 'ud'-
Gated ut the last Gu,erualorial election
i. not such as to stimulate great hope n
the democratic ranks, were It not that
since then the masses have gained wis
dom. and discovered the error OF Their
w.ys. It cannot be that the masses Il
this noble State have so little dl.c elon
as to deliberately CHOOSE man Tor Their
Governor who is q conditi nal Union
man. We would not SO far lmpeacb the
loyalty Of Iowa citizens as to accuse
the u Of snch step, when thoroughly
loyal man ia in the field a candidate for
the same position. 1t cannot be posi-
bic tia, party infatuation and blinoness
can so obscure the true interests OF the
voters Of this State.
Let everything be done that can be
done, let the next three weeks be spent
to the best advantage by the democracy
of Iowa. 10 every town and county nn>
ususl eff ,rts should be put forth in the
work Of completing organic .tion, dis
ti,bating democratic documents and
placing the true issue before the people
through the medium Of good speakers.
Let all be done that can he done, and
whether the result be that Of victory or
defeat the CONSCIOUS ess OF having don g
our duty viii he with us.
