Editor Rutland Herald The Baltimore
correspondent of the New York Tribune
speaking of the Sanitary Fair in that
city and the visits of the President and
other members of his Cabinet, says
"Mr. Lincoln was well received, but
Mr.. M. Blair got the cold shoulder.
Mr.. Chase was well re-
ceived but Mr.. Stewards speech came
near being the signal for uproarious dis
sent His avowal that
he loved his country better than Free
dom shocked everybody; but his rebuke
Of the new born zeal of Maryland for
Abolition gave greater ohense than all
that he said beside, offensive as it nearly
all was to his hearers"
Let the readers of the HERALD and
loyal men of the North, take note of the
fact here pointed out, that our present
government is composed of men who
can mer al and "rebuke" the progress
sive and enlightened sentiment Of anti
slavery which is being awakened by the
experiences of this terrible war, in a Dor
der State. / was almost going to ask
whether Mr.. Seward was drunk or sober
when he thus placed himself in antago-
nism to the popular current OF the coun-
try and the time. But another and
more important question occurs; Will
Mr.. Lincoln, if reelected retain in his
Cabinet men who are openly inimical to
the spirit and doctrine which should
characterize the executive department
Of the government when the war is
closed?
If it is understood that the re-nomi-
nation of Mr.. Lincoln is meant to in
clude also that of all the members of his,
Cabinet, then let none be disappoint ed
when the presidential election is over
If as IN 1862, the opposition has c4rriet

himself to reform his Cabinet in har

GRANTS ARMY.-The four corps of the
army of the Potomac should number, il
full, 10000 men apiece, which would
give Gen. Grant at the start an army of
10000. As corps is never full for a
single week. however, something must
be deducted. We have no doubt, how
ever, that he took across the Rapidan
over 10000 men.
his losses, up to Tuesday night of last
week, are set down in the careful and
deliberate estimate of the Army and Ma
Wy Journal at $4,000, which the engage
ments of Wednesday and Thursday prob
ably increased by 5000 or 5000, swelling
the total to over 10000. OF this num-
Der some four thousand are prisoners.
and probably four or five thousand stray
glers.
The achievements sent forward from
Gen. Augur's department include $4,000
Western Veterans, 1900 men of the 18th
Vermont heavy artillery, and other
troops, in all we suppose force of over
10000. ~. .

FROM PERu.-We have highly impor-
tant news from Peru by the steamers
which have lately arrived from AS
pinwall. War had been commenced on
that republic, in most extraordinary
manner, by Admiral Pinzon. command
ing the Spanish squadron in the Pacific
the first overt acts having been commit
ted on the 10Th Of April, when, without
any declaration of war by Spain, or any
previous notice, such as is customary
with all civilized nations the Admiral,
Tor grievance alleged to have been suf
Tered by one of his countrymen at the
hands of some Peruvians, proceeded to
take possession, in the name of Spain, of
the Chincha guano islands, the property
OF Peru, and of a Peruvian vessel which
he found in that vicinity. He then sail
ed for the port of Callao, with the inten-
ton of Selling all the naval vessels of
the republic lying there; but in
this he was frustrated, the Peruvians
having received timely notice of his de-
signs. Great indignation and excite
ment prevailed throughout the country
on account of these outrages on the part
of the Spaniards, and the authorities and
people were preparing to defend their
sovereignty and reclaim their territory.
At our latest dates it was not known
whether the Spanish government sane
toned these proceedings of its agents.
Not only were the people of Peru them
selves enthusiastically united in the de-
termination tosupport their..government
and repel these aggressions, but they
had also the sympathy and the pledge
Of support of the most influential resi-
lent foreigners, who, in public meet
ng, at which the American minister
presided, had strongly condemned the
conduct of Admiral Pinzon.

Col. SToNE.-Among the killed in the
battle of the Wilderness was Colonel
Newton Stone, of the Second Vermont
regiment. Col Stone was native of
Readsboro in this county. He came to
Bennington in the winter of 1859, and
commenced studying law in the office of
the Hon. A. B. Gardner. When the first
bennington company, afterwards known
as Co. A, "a Vt, was being raised, he
was among the first that enlisted. and
upon the organization of the company
was unanimously elected its First Lien
tenant. He was then % years of age
He was admitted to the bar in June.
1861, stopping at this place for that pur-
pose while on the way to Burlington
with the Company to be mustered into
the service. He was with the regiment
in the first Bull Run battle, and was
soon after promoted to Captaincy. In
January, 1868, he was promoted to the
Majority of his regiment, and in the fol-
lowing month was made Lieutenant Col
onel. While holding this rank he served
lor nearly year upon Gen. Howe's staff.
upon the resignation of Col, Walbridge
ne was promoted to fill the vacant office.
and the battle in which he fell was the
first IN which he commanded the regi-
ment. Col. Stone was a yOunp.man of |
fine ability, and his loss will be severely |
felt by the regiment. By his death an
mother name is added to the long list of
noble men whom Vermont has lost in
this sad Manchester Journal.
