The Hon. William Whiting, Solicitor of the War Department, has decided that aliens, whe are subjects of foreign Government, having voluntarily enlisted in the service of the Uni. ted States as substitutes for drafted men, are not entitled to be discharged from such Ser. vice by reason ofalienage, but may, under the law of nations, be held to perform their engage ments without giving the Government, to which their allegiance is due, just cause of complaint.
 Tho House on Monday passed the bill reviv- ing the grade of Lieutenant-General by 96 against Al, having previously by III against IT recommended Gen. Grant for the position. The bill, if it becomes g law, and if the Presl- dent responds to the purpose of the House, will put Gen. Grant in place of Gen. Halleck --a fact which from the tone of the debate seems to have had weight among the Repre- sentatiyes Mir. Washburns of Illinois remark cd that this war would never be ended till we had fighting general to lead our armies, and the House cordially agreed with him.
 There will be no dispute that Gen. Grant has deserved the honor which the House pro- psses to confer:

More Men :!

Elsewhere will be found the call of the Pres ident for half million more men. This call is understood to embrace the three hundred thousand hitherto called for, on the order of October last, which has been only about half filled by enlistments aH9 volunteering. Our State, however, has entirely filled her quota under that call, and has some thousand men over. Hence we shall have but our quota of two hundred thousand to fill, to avoid the draft.
 The call, we trust, will give new impetus to volunteering throughout the State and all over the country. It is we'll known that the rebel leaders are gathering all their strength for one last desperate effort 10 save tho rebel lion from utter ruin. The Union forces must meet it, and meet it they vi!l-and the rebell ion wilt be forever throttled. It is the spring campaign which is to tell the story, and as the country responds to this new call of the Pres
 dent. it must expect to conqu,r @ speedy peace, or prepare for still longer war.

LITCHFIELD, CONN. THURSDAY, FEB. 4. 1864.
Tl,e State Nominations.


 It seems to be the general desire of the peo- pie that Governor Buckingham shall receive the nomination of the Unionists for the posi- tion he SO worthily fills, which will be tam tamount to reelection There are some few bankers throughout the state, representing va- rious cllques and circles who would be glad to overthrow him, but the general feeling is 80 srong in favor Of the upright Governor, that we presume the feeble opposition will be incon- tnently silenced iu the presence of tho com- bined sentiment of the state as expressed in the Convention. We can safely say at least, that the sentiment of the people ofthis county, whatever may be the desires or schemes of some of the politicians, is decidedly in favor of Governor Buckingham as our nominee.
 In the democratic. camp considerable trouble seems to be brewing, and candidates for offices on the State Ticket already begin to ripen as thick as blackberries in July. The rural districts" will hardly be credited this year with the nomination of "galant Tom Seymour and the party leaders will undoubt- edly see to it that such an unpardonable mis- take is not made in the outset, as the nomina- ton of a man for the highest office in the state who is not at least tinctm'ed with loyalty to his country. Who beside the "gallant Tom" will have the distinguished honor of being the stan da I'd bearer of '' Connecticut democracy" in this campaign, and of being quietly buried, with all the honors of war, in the grave of his illustrious predecessors for the past ten years, is among the uncertainties which only the cop perhead convention can unravel. Several names are mentioned as possible candidates for this honor, and among them one which we shall be exceedingly chagrined andsorry to see lent to such base use. A truly loyal man cannot afford to suffer the taint and contami nation of nomination rendered at the hands of Eaton and Company, and could not. if Ee would, carry the burden of the platform his masters arc sure to fasten to his skirts.
 There will be, of course, the usual scramble for the minor offices on thu ticket, which may have some weight in determining the candid ate for the chief position. Already we learn that the old war horse of Breckinridge de- mocracy in this County, whose seat is among the mountains and Businesses of Colebrook, and, whose claims for recognition have been ignored good deal longer than his Christian philosophy enables him to endure, has sounded the slogan and issued his decree that tzis Spring "he'll be dermed if Litchfeld shall monopolize aU the candidates for of. fce," and he believes that it is high time some sort of honor came to Colebrook. And, in- deed, we don't see why the General shouldn't be gratifed for if he is willing to take even the lowest place on the Copperhead ticket, we are sure Ltchfeld County is entirely willing to have him.

NEW M1LTonp.-Ameng the festivities of the winter, the Firemen's Festival at Bron- sons Hall on Wednesday evening last, for large attendance, and variety of pleasures, takes the lead. The object of the festival on the part Sf the company was to raise funds to purchase new carpet. and some pictures fer the meeting room of the company in the en- zine house. ssms ore hundred invitations, outside of the company, were given cut, most of which availsd themselves of the spportuni- ty to attend, aAd the ladiss cordially respond ed ts an invitation te furniaA the sntsrtaia. meat.
 The Hall was nest tastsfully decorated with svsrgreens, pictures, . dozen CT mere flags, wreaths, bequets, &c., while trsmpsts, hess, pipes, axes, torehlights, &e., artistically ar raj gned oharacterissd the festival as . Are. mans. Over tho door of ths hat and coat room. was inscribed, in grsen letters the name of the company" Water Witch Esgiss Co.,, No. 2." Over the deer to the ladiss room was also the significant motte=-" We extingaish one fans, aRd cherish another"
 ! A nsvsl end agreeable feature of the fssti- val, was the presence of a;ns or ten eAnsriss; whose lively music added charm to the oe- essisn. Previous to supper the time was pleas, aatly passed in listening to the band, the sing l ing of the frsmen and ladies, or some excel. lent instrumental pieces frsm the piano. At nine the curtain in the back part of She hall was drawn and the table prepared by the ls- dies appeared loaded with meats, biscuits, cakes, jelliss, coffee snd sundry other delica- cies too numerous to mention. Sufice it to say that the table vas furnished with the usual taste and liberality of the New Milford ladies and was duly appreciated. After sup per large surplus was re-arranged upon the table and mads convenient lunch during the rest of the evening agrsesbly to the " inward promptscgs" of the individual. Supper being disposs the band struck up and the com pany wskesoon in the whirl of the "mazy danee," which was the order of the evening | and continued to be till the "small heurs'' were very percsptibly getting larger when the party broke up all well satisfied with the evenings entertainment. The net result of the festival cannot be iess than $100.
 | The quota of this town under the last call for volunts CTS is fuli with surplus of 10 or 12, besides those enlisted from veteran rsgi- ments. New Milford has done, and will con. tinue to do her full duty.

 UNION CsxelRT.-Ia the early part of the fall the two Sunday Schools of the 2d Csnsrs- gational and Methodist Churches began hold ing singing meetings under the direction ofP. M. Trewbridgs, the veteran Sunday School msa and music teacher. These meetings were esnsinusd through the fall aad viassr. On Monday svssiug the Ash ui.., Mr. T. gave . Concert in the South Congregational church.
 iAe audience Was large, end the sxsreisss were in every respect, satisfactory. Cultiva- ted taste and good judgment, prompt move meuts and clear articulation, good expression and almost perfect harmony characterized the
 whole performance. The Solos were yell sus-

 FheaRsv. Mir. LOunsbury after few enthu 1 siastio remarks moved 6 vote of thanks, to Mir. Trewbridgs for his self sasria eing and in defatigabls efforts in behalf of the childrea and youth, which were seconded by.Rsv. Mr. Churchill in brief but pertinent speech, which
 wss promptly responded to by the sinultaneou. rising and elapping of the audience, When the chorister faced the choir they gave such ,
 hearty denomination of their good feeling
 that it must have convinced him they sppre
 ciated his services, and that he had not speu,
 his strength for naught. In closing, the au

 singing "My country 'tis of thee" Thus
 ended one of the most pleasant and profitable
 events the people of old Woodbury have exps rienosd for long time.

THE LAST DAYS OF T1AoKsRAY.-The last time the writer saw William Thackeray, was on Wednesday, the 16th of December. They were next door neighbors at dinner where all
 were intimate friends. Thackeray was in his usual spirits, which were never beisterous, but
 always cheerful, and he had pleasant words
 for all present. Especially was he pretending
 to incite one very old friend to give party of
 an excessively gay description. in order, as he
 said, that we might fancy ourselves all young Fagain. He had something to say of the " cir camstances" touching which. the National Shakespeare Committee has passed a. vote of
 "regret," and @hich MT. Lucas has indignant ly declared will cause posterity to "peint with scorn" at that passage in the committees his- tery. They did not ruffe Thackeray, howev- CT they may have incensed his friends and it is not needful-at least at present-to repro duce his smiling judgment on those whom it lconcerned. On that evening he enjoyed him. self much in his own quiet way, and contrib. uted gepally to the enjoyment of those who were something less quiet; and. question arising about subscription in aid of disa-
 bled artist, he instantly offered to increase, if
 necessary, sum he had previously promised. The writer's very last recollection of the cyn- ic, therefore, is in connection with ap unasked
 act of Christian kindness. On the following
 Monday he attended the funeral of lady who
 was inferred in Kensal Green Cemetery. On the Tuesday evening he came to his faYorite
 club-the Garrick-and asked a seat at the ta-
 ble of two friends, who, of course, welcomed
 him as all welcomed Thackeray. On Wednes'
 day he was out several times, and was seen in
 Palace Gardens reading 3 book" Before
 the dawn on Thursday, he was where there is
 no night. May we meet him there F. Shirley Brooks in khe Ilustrated Times.
