ed to a dietatorship. One would think, to
read ". "Crapaud,"' that the Confederate
States were just about the freest and hap.
piest country on the globe, the press there
enjoys illimitable liberty, private citizens
are never deprived of their freedom, neith-
er State nor General Government has an
official organ; anybody can say anything be
pleases about the Government and its Off
cials. The opposition is composed of dis
appointed men who have not obtained DO.
.litical preferment.
THE Army OF TIE NORTH.
By this title the Confederates designate
the forces of General Lee. NJ. "Crapaud"
visited the army, and was introduced to
EWell and A. p. Hill. He found the army
in excellent condition, provisions abun-
dant, sanitary conditions admirable, and
everything betokening strength and pre-.
dieting victory. The Federals, on the other
hand, are unlicensed ssvsges, who murder
negroes, insult women, and are addicted to
shooting women and children while they
are in their houses quietly taking supper,
and the husband and father, away in the
army, cannot defend them. Here is spe-
cimen ofthe stories told:-
gs-, 1 a YANKEE HERoD.

"Crapaud," J" "the Governor Of North Caro-.
lima say one evening, at General Cooper's,
that during the numerous incursions made
by the Federals they would steal whole
families of negroes, who would at the ear.
liest opportunity run away and get back
to their masters. The Yankees, then, in
rage, would snatch from their mothers
arms all the little negro babies and throw
them into the water. At other times they
made Hoyades on large scale of negroes
who resisted their kidnapping efforts.
ANOTHER TOUGH STORY.
:'The Yankees were just as cruel" ao-
cording to "Crapsud," "to the whites. /"
On transport, laden with rebel prisoners,
most of whom were sick with the small.
pox, contracted in tho vile holes where
they had been imprisoned by the Union
lists, the latter amused themselves by tying
the we'll prisoners to the sick ones, thus
insuring the spread of the contagion; and
when both of the unlucky men were thus
infected, and the mslady was at its height,
they were thrown overheard amid wild
hurrahs |" agz
NJ. "Crapsud" proceeds to say that these
stories ere not the inventions of newspaper
correspondents, but are the calm, unim-
passioned statements of Governor Vance,
of North Carolina. .=

CaRT OF VERMONT SOLDIERS, - We
make the following extracts from let
ter Of citizen of Rutland, who has had
abundant opportunities to know Of
what he writes !.
"Mr. Baxter and wife have been here
all summer devoting their whole time
to the interest Of Vermont soldiers. The
people Of Vermont owe him debt Of
gratitude that never can be repaid, and
quit" ~ much mar he s'I IN ,.halr of
his wife. Mr.. b. is not only well ac-
quainted with all the officers in the War
and Surgeon Generals Departments, but
he seems to be q iavorite with them and
they appreciate his efforts and are ready
to grant him anything he asks within
their power. I doubt II a day passes
without his doing favors to Vermont
men that no one else here could do, and
what he does Is done cheerfully 30 that
no one feels humilisted In going to him
for favor.
think too that We have one Of tAo
best Commissioners In Washington for
the care Of sick and wounded soldiers.
He is on the move every day from morn.
ing till night attending to his duties.
There is really more to be done especial.
ly during such campaign as the pre-.
ent than one man ought to do or can
properly attend to, but with the aid u
Mr.. Baxter l am satisfied our Vermont
soldiers have been cared ~ at least .
we'll and think better, than thaee e
any other State" -------@:z.,z -
