Receipts from Henson.
PuILADRLpnIA. Jan. 2S


NcSas, Editors Will you permit me
to acknowledge, through the HERALD,
the receipt of box of valuable articles
from the ladies of Benson, for the bene-
fit of the sick and wounded soldiers in
the hospitals in this city, containing ar
ticles as follows, viz:
II pairs of pillow cases, IL pillows,
10 sheets, 26 towels, cushion, 81 nap
kinS, % shirts, > pairs slippers, 6 pairs
socks, pairs drawers, . dressing gowns,
l quilt, ! linen coat, II yards old linen,
y yards Of old cotton, Is rolls of banda
ges, 43 pounds of butter 50 pounds of
cheese, l3l pounds of dried apples, SO
pounds of other dried fruit, can of
pickles, ! can of grapes, cans of jellies,
/ bottle of wine, . quarts of cranberries,
| paper of maizena,.
These articles are Just such rs the
brave soldiers very much need; and
their hearts are moved with gratitude
when they receive such substantial to-
kens OF remembrance from mothers and
wives, and sisters. And could the
women who are far away from the bat
tle-felds and the hospitals, hear the ex-
pressionS Of thankfulness made by the
sons, husbands and brothers, who are ly-
ing on their couches sick, or wounded,
or both, they would feel repaid many
times, for all their sacrifices in behalf of
such men, In the name of the suffering
men who may become the recipients of
these gifts, thank the ladies of Benson !;
and in the language often uttered by the
grateful soldiers, | say to them, "God
bless youw
In order that the women in your State
may know something about the lahors
and sacrifices of the women of this city,
allow me to say that the hospital in
Wh.cin am stationed, is one used mainly
as u temporary resting place for soldiers
on their way to other hospitals. And,
during the months of June and July,
1863 more than fifteen thousand sick and
wounded men passed through this hos
pital, and were fed, furnished with shirts,
drawers, caps, socks, slippers, &c, as
far as needed had their wounds dress
ed, and were cared for almost as kind
friends at home would have cared for
them; and large part of this work was
performed by the volunteer services of
women. r.H...#. .
Since this institution has opened, in
September, 1863, more than thirty thous-
and have been treated within its walls,
and, yet this is only one, amid many,
somewhat similar in this city. Phila-
delphia is doing much for the soldiers :;
and the soldiers. have done, and are do
ing much for Philadelphia. And the
50 ne is true in regard to all the loyal
Co. May the time soon come when
the work on both sides, shall cease,
Very truly yours,

rs A CARD.--The family at st. Johns
Parsonage, Poultney, We're most agreea-
bly, surprised on Thursday evening, the
9th ult., by the sudden appearance of
many kind friends and parishioners, who,
for time, took entire possession of the
premises, and who were evidently acting
with entire unity of purpose. A sump-
tuous repast was soon seen tastefully ar
ranged by skillful and willing hands;
and the evening passed away most de-
lightfully in social greetings, cheerful
converse, and in listening occasionally,
to sweet inspiring strains of music. Af-
ter time, the company returned to their
own homes, but not till they had left
many liberal and substantial tokens of
their regard.
May the generous donors be rewarded
thousand fold in the abiding possession
of the richest of spiritual and heavenly
gifts. III.

NARROW EsoAPE.-0n the arrival Of
the train from Rutland at Fairhaven last
Friday afternoon, y. c. EIis, Esq, of
that place, and Mrs. Hannah Dyer, of this
town, started in the carriage for the
village, and very soon the horse, blind
one, became mmanageasle, and rushed
from the embanlxment a. the end of the
bridge into the deep water, some ten
feet below. Fortunately all were res
cued, and taken in hand by Dr. Nichols,
through whose kindness and that of his
family tAey Were soon made comforta-
bic, Among those who aided in the res.
cue, Mr. James Lama in particular ex-
hibited true heroism. He saw that
the struggling horse was drawing che
overturned carriage, covered'S 'Sne, into
deep water, and 'plunging beyond his
tepth, seized the horse by the head and
padded for the shore, thereby contrib
uting essentially to the rescue of the
parties 5@

IMPORTANT MISSIONARY MOVEMENT.
The New York Examiner saws that
the Secretary of War has given full and
formal authority to the American Bap-
tist Home Mission Society to take pos
session of every abandoned Baptist meet
ing house within the limits of the insur-
rectionary district, and of every other
Baptist church edifice now in the hands
of the rebels. The Baptist population of
the seeded States is probably larger
than that of any other denomina-
tion, and hundreds of abandoned Bap-
tist pulpits will be open to loyal Bap-
tist ministers of the North. The Gov
ernment will give them every practical
BILE protection in their new fields of la
Dor, and corresponding facilities for
reaching them.

CAUGHT AT LAsT.-The deserter who
escaped from the window of car sa-
loon, as mentioned in the Herald last
week, was pursued and caught the same
day in Bristol He proves to be quite a
subject. He has deserted from the 9th
United States Regulars, from the Sd and
the 9th Vermont regiments, and, from
the fact of his having plenty of money,
it is suspected that he is substitute
deserter. He has reported" at different
places under the aliases of Frank Car
penter, Henry j. Carpenter, and Frank
Hamilton. 1t is supposed that the first
is his true name. He is now in Jail in
this town, and will be sent to Brattle-
boro at the first convenient opportunity.
1t is eapected that he will go safely.

IHE JUDGMENT IL THE ALEXANDRIA CASE
The Judgment pronounced by the Court
OF Exchequer in the Alexandra case, re-
fusing new trial, has the force of reaf
firming the previous verdict in favor of
the defendants-a verdict which makes
it not unlawful for British merchants to
bulld, ft out and sell to the rebels war
vessels, provided they are not armed and
equipped but it is far from settling the
question. 1t is in the power of the
Crown to carry the case to the Court of
Exchequer Chamber, and finally up to
the House of Lords. This will, without
doubt, be done, for the British Govern
ment has it really at heart, we think, to
have the Foreign Enlistment Act so CON
strued as to put stop to the fitting out
OF war-vessefs for the rebels. Should it
be found impossible to do SO, we have
the promise of Earl Russell to call for a
new legislation on the subject, if the law,
as it now stands, is insufficient. The
point ofpracticaliimportance to us is that
the Alexandra being test case, no more
Alabamas or Floridas will be allowed to
escape until her fate is decided. And it
may be found the most polite way to
keep the ship in kind of legal blockade
by the claws delay" and the resources
of the circumlocution office till the war
is over-a course which will present the
double advantage of satisfying justice
toward the United States, while it win
save the British Government from the
embarrassment of making decision to
which their fears might seem to have in |
part contributed.

INTERESTING LBGAL QUEsrIos.-A case
is pending in the Supreme Court now in
session in this village, between a citizen
ofthe town of Wells, and the Constable
of the town, involving the constitution
ality of the act of the Legislature au-
thorizing the towns to raise money to
pay volunteers, passed in 1862 In the
County Court it was held that the tax
for such purpose was legal, and judg-
ment was given in favor of the defend
ant. The plaintiff excepted to the de-
cision of the County Court, and the case
now comes before the Supreme Court for
revision. The question involved is one
of general public concern, and the de-
cision of the Court will be looked for
with much interest. The case is to be
argued by Prout & Dunton for the plain
tiff and by Mr.. Beaman and MIR Dewey
for defendant.

THE Work OF RECRUITING. - Provost
Marshal General Fry-has written a let
ter to Gov. Andrew, stating that those
municipalities" by which we suppose
he means cities or towns, whose quotas
are filed, may continue their work of
recruiting, with the certainty that the
new recruits will be credited to them on
any subsequent calls. Those communi-
ties, therefore, who have fully responded
to the call of the Government cannot do
a more patriotic service to the country
than to assist in filling up the armies to
the maximum.
