back to Newport. Your reporter, remember

back to Newport. Your reporter, remember I,
ing the spring less wogon and the slow nags,
to 'h'.;i it,and he is happy 20 say,
for the credit 1 The "CAL.", that he CINE in .
about three !e.-,,'.> and half ahead Of 4
trot'"r" ~EcH fted at the same tine.
Arriving at Ntwp port we found that the cars
left the depot about the same hour the motel |
bell rang for tea. 1t was thought by the par
ty that it would not be prudent to wait until |
that time for supper, and unanimous vote |
was taken to forage about town and see what |
could be found. Tha search was fruitless for |
some time bat at length we called into a
store owned by live-a-wake St. Johnsbury
boy, where We lighted on a half barrel Of
crackers and a tub of maple sugar, to
which your reporter and his friends were
welcomed by the proprietor 1t is surpris-
ing, MIR. Editor, the number of friends per-
son has on such occasions! | had host of
them about that time, and tie owner Of said
crackers must have thought your reporter
the most popular man in St. Johnsbury. AT
half past SIX the whistle warned US that the
train was about leaving, and if We didn't want
to get left We had better leave for the depot.
Here We found the cars nearly full, but " our
set had secured a baggage car into which
re all hurried and were soon on our way
homeward, where We arrived at half past
nine. The employers of the railroad compa-
ny deserve credit for the prompt manner N
which they performed their part Of the pro.
gramme; the proprietors of the Memphre-
magog House did the best they could, not
expecting so great a rush. and for the rest of
the proceeding less said about the m
the better-so thinks yol. REPORTER.
One hundred and sixty men of the Sth
regiment have been mustered out of service
at Bra,,leboro their term of service having
expired.
Bratteboro has mustered in seventeen Nir-
slnia blacks to her credit, in anticipation Of
the coming call, We suppose. Under the new
law recruits can be obtained in the rebellious
states, and We shall expect VERMONT to avail
herself of this privilege. The industry of
our state will suffer if more laborers are re-
crujled or drafted for the army It is next
10 impossible to get any work nerformad
now.
Hereafter the board of enrolment At
Woodstock will devote TUESDAYS and FRIDAYS
only to the examination and mastering Of
substitutes.
