GREAT PACIFIC RAILROAD.

Do our readers know that the work of
building q railroad across the plains to
California has been fairly commenced ?
The point fixed upon as the starting place
Is Omaha City, Nebraska, and the ceremo-
pies Of breaking ground took place on
the I'd day Of December last. amid the
firing. of cannon, and many other demon
strations of rejoicing, The Importance of
this great work, and its value to the
country can hardly be over estimated. 1t
Is a great work, and years will be con-
sumed 10 its completion /; but such things
are done in a much shorter time now
than formerly, and we may reasonably
look forward to the time when our tables
may be supplied with genuine tea and
first rate "Old Java" direct from the
old world, by the express over the Rocky

A number of citizens have already ia.

young Wbitesidcs, whose father persisted
in the rebel army, and who was himself

extremely wealthy, being a partner in the
grounds known as the Etna coal mines.

New York company for nine hundred and
ninety mine years, the proprietors of the

tain and has very wisely concluded not
to see it sequestrated, if swearing will
save 1t. and already she. too. has given in
her adhesion to the required oath.
Whether or not those who thus accept
this proclamation of amnesty really enter
tain any improved feelings toward the old
government in general or the Yankees in
particular, Of course it is not for me to
decide but one thing is certain. and that
is. if they are restored to their civil rights
in full. they will never again use their priv.
ilege to encourage rebellion. 1t will be
their last. and not first, remedy for lost
rights" in future.

DAYS before the expiration of the term OF
recruiting. The men that Vermont has
raised. under the last call. as a general
thing, are Vermont men, enlisting at
home with the resolution to do their duty
in the field. They are not surpassed, if
they are equalled blythe recruits drurnmed
up from foul haunts in the city by substi-
tute sellers whose term of service will
close at the first chance to desert. We
do not think that Vermont is behind any
eastern State. If we compare her With
her western sisters We should bet
how great a difference there is between
the number of youthful men in them and
in our own State. The vigor of Vermont
is divided between itself and the north
western States. The figures show a clean
and glorious. record for Vermont, and
when a trner standard is applied to her
sne SdiuS ihoIe'
We should not be just in noticing this
matter if we should pass over the gallant
men, now veterans in the %servive. who
have promptly accepted the proposal to
re-enlist who have done their duty
doubly. With that spirit of devotion
which has made them foremost whenever
there has been work to do or fighting to
be done they have now come to the front.
THEY arc not behind any States men. If
higher credit can be gained for the Ver-
mont brigade it lies in the zeal, resolution
and devotion of it's members who have
re-enlisted for the war. 1t is a natter Of
just pride and of proper exultation that
Vermont began so we'll, and more, th.t
she has held out so well.--B Burlington

commissioned officer the company were al
lowed to choose, the others being appoint

1t was a surprise. Captain William

with his presence, and at the conclusion
of the repast, eloquently addressed us.
He complimeuted us on our excellent de-
pertinent as soldiers, and congratulated
US on the good reputation We had already
secured. That when he returned to his
comrades in the First Vermont Brigade
he should tell them that Vermont was
alice to her duty in putting down this re-
bellion aud uniting anew IA dismembered
country and that patriotic, intelligent
men were to take the field in unison with
the veterans who have ever endeavored to
maintain the honor and bright historic
name of our state.
He said: We would find in our Captain

the ordeal, and was ever ready to grasp
the hand and appreciate him who was
worthy and pat lotto. That he had long
been acquainted with him, that he was
drave and patriotic.
Captain Pierce's remarks were patriotic
and effecting, and were received with many
cheers.
Captain Start introduced Captain Pierce
as a long tried friend. and made a few
remarks. His address was eloquent and
patriotic. He spoke of the eventful year
which was before us, and Of the work
which our army must perform, ere this re-
be.lion is wholly crushed.

VOLUNTEERING IN VERMONT.

The Tribune says that late returns
from the several States to the War De-
partment indicate that at least oue-third,
aud perhaps one-half of the men under
the last call will be raised by voluntary
enlistments before the 9th of January.
Maine. New Hampshire, Rhode Island,
INDIANA and Illinois are expected to
raise their full quotas. Massachusetts,.
Vermont and Iowa will not be far be-
hind" We think it a matter for sincere
graduation that Vermont is making 81
prompt and effective reponse to the last
call for men. We believe, from what
knowledge we have, that no eastern state
is doing better before. if we consider
both the number and the quality of the
men. We r~ecollect we'll that in the first
amazeuent of the people when war
broke upon them and Vermont was called
to send one regiment. the question was
asked seriously, "Can VIC raise it?''
Five regiments besides the first made an
swer to that question in that first sum
mer. Those five regiments in the Army
of the Potomac have gained a high dis
tinction. even in that army. for soldierly
conduct in all the positions where they
have been so thoroughly tried, alike in
the tedious and arduous duties of camp
life, and ION the perilous edge of battle"
After them went five other regiments
then another; then five more-another
brigade-and yet the fountain is not ex-
hausted. The question that was asked
in the great shock that sudden war made
in the spring Of 1861 is nobly answered
Vermont can raise one thousand or twen-
ty.five thousand when the country calls
for them.
Already in this last necessity nigh two
thousand men If not quite SO many, are
reported on this last call. The quotas Of

FESTIVAL AT MOyTpELrER.

We copy from WuAon's Daily the fol.
lowing account of a festival held in Wash.
ington Hall, Montpelier, on New Years
Eve, for the benefit of sick and wounded
soldiers:
The Hall was beautifully trimmed
with evergreen and hung with pictures,
and brilliantly lighted. On the stage at
the further end, there was a table laden
with fancy articles, nearly all of which
were purchased quito early in the evening,
and the young ladies who presided there
were jubiiant over the unparalleled success.

10 the corner on the left of the stage,
was a table loaded with plate, solid ware.
aud other expensive articles, for which
rafting chances were sold for twenty-tiv i've
cents. Several had their hazards crowned
with brilliant luck. and the table paid
large profits, and a handsome sum for the
soldiers. tI
There we're three grab. bags-one for
five, one for ten. and the other for fifteen
cents, which received a liberal patronage,
soon became emptied, and yielded munif-
cent proceeds.
Suspended from one of the chandeliers
was a Blind Mans Bank, which afforded
a handsome sum-, and created "A great deal
of amusement during the whole evening.
On either side of the room long tables
were set, bearing a great variety of food
and luxurics. from Bean Porridge up to
Ice Cream, and nearly all present partook
of the rcpast, at twenty five cent tick
cts, thereby contributing a large
amount.
In the ante-room. was the greatest ex-
hibition yet. The room was hung around
with the most antique paintings that
could be found in all the families iu town /;
overhead were suspended strips of pump
kin and an Inflated h,g's-bladder hung up

In addition to all this, to the sale of

the occasion by Mr.. Clarke, met with "a

The total receipts of the Fair amounted
to about four hundred and fifteen dollars.

the determination to spend money and to
be happy. They certainly did what they
