SICKNESS AND MORTALITY.

The amount and severity of sickness in
this town and vicinity has wonderfully
increased of late aud in an unusually
large proportion of cases has proved fatal.
All diseases early assume a very persis-
tent and aggravated type. Diphtheria
has invaded many household and called
therefrom some of the fairest and choicest
flowers. So numerous have been its raw,
ages that families are justly alarmed at
the approach of any ailment of the throat
and lungs. and seek medical advice when
ordinarily they would trust implicitly
to their own experience. But diptheria
has been thrown in the shade by the ap.
pearance of new and more fatal type Of
disease in this and other towns in this
comfy. What this disease is the faculty
have not decided. In some towns and by
some persons it is called spotted fever,
while we have heard it pronounced by
excellent medical authority to be conges.
ton of the brain and spinal cord in an
epidemic form. The victims of this dis
ease are usually young people from seven
to fourteen years of age, aud the disease
proves fatal in from one to three days
In this village there have been several
eascs-three of them boys and cousins,
and two of them only sons. We are in.
formed that the same disease is prevailing
to some extent in Newfane, rownshend,
Wardsboro and Jamaica.
1t is remarkable that in the town OF
stratton-with a population of 366 i'll
1860, and which has since diminished
rather than increased, from ordinary
causes alone there have been over ssirt,
deaths during the last two years. and a
majority of these have been caused by
diptheria. -Brataeboro Phoentir.

FROM THE SECOND REGIMENT.
In CAMP, Feb. 2, 1864.


Mr.. EDITOR Being in winter-qnar-
tiers, and consequently having some leis-
ure time, have thought | would just
drop you few words, and if you think
them worthy of place in your truly IN
terestiag paper, you are at liberty to use
them.
Our quarters this winter, are more ex-
tensive and commodious than ever before,
since we concluded to accept of Jeff. s
Beau regards. The experience of each
year of war bring with them improve
ments before unthought of, in camp life.
thus far the weather has been unusually
mild this winter, even for Virginia.
There has been mud enough however, to
prevent drilling nearly all the time since

our duty has been merely nominal. To

FROM CHARLESTON.

According to the opinion of the Hilton
Head correspondent Of the New York
Times, the capture of Charleston and ga
vaunah are not 80 far in the distance as
some imagine them to be, and as recent
rumors would seem to have them. In a
recent letter. in which he most positively
asserts this belief, he says:
1.-THE demolition of Charleston is still
progressing with inevitable certainty as
is evidenced by deserters and refugees
constantly arriving from the South also
by statements contained in Charleston
and Savannah journals. The editors
seem to be convinced that it is vain to
longer misrepresent to the masses the true
effect of the Federal shells. The suspen-
sion of business, the deserted streets, the
consumed dwellings, the fight of the In
habitants, tell the woeful tale. Not
man. woman or child feels safe in Charles
ton at the present time.
The guns at Fort Strong are even turn
ed upon the city. and at any moment du
ring the day or night are liable to be dis
charged of their destructive mi slles
The affected Indifference with which thu
citizens received our shells in the early
stage of the bombardment was of shor
duration. A few fires and number Of
casualties speedily produced morta
dread and fear that was by no means o
the counterfeit sort. A multiplicity o
fires and casualties were sufficient tt
thoroughly awaken the people to sens
of their dangerous position, as was full,
attested by the confused and terror-strick
en- crowds that packed the depots Will
waiting for transportation to some interlo
village or town.
We have been assured by parties re
Gently from the Confederacy that the reb
el authorities have abandoned the belle
of their ability to hold Charleston ~he1
the Union forces advance to take it.
In view of the prospect thus set fortl
large quantities of military stores hav
been sent to points more remote form tn
seaLoard. The main defenses of the cit.
are on the islands which border the ba
and harbor. The island boundaries ar
not sufficiently protected to resist even
small body of troops. The same obscr
yations apply in the case Of the defense
about Savannah

AN ALARMING DIsEAsE-Tbe amount
of sickness and fatality in some neigh
borhoods in this county has become quite
alarming, and much anxiety very natu-
rally prevails. The Msease is new one.
or perhaps an old one rc-appeared, called
the spotted or black fever, and takes its
victims very suddenly. A child of Har.
vey Houghton, at Brattleboro, was taken
Saturday night and died Sunday morning,
having been sick only about twelve hours,
An only child Of L. NJ Harry of Wards
boro, aged II years. has been stricken
down with the same disease, and only
survived the attack twenty hours. In his
case he first complained Friday morning
