The 5th Vermont regiment began the cam
paigu with FIVE hundred men. and when last
heard from had l40.
The l7th Vermont regiment only musters
seven officers and "a men for duty.
SO we read in the newspapers but 1t must
no, be inferred that these regiments are an
initiated. They were not full at the opening
Of the campaign, the l7th then mastering
only Sl3 men, and the 9th 500 men. They
have undoubtedly rendered good service and
sufT, red much, but their ranks will soon be
materially increased by the recovery Of sick
and wounded men.

Of his time was devoted TO caring for our

turned home about prosuated by the severity
Of his labors. Since arriving here he has

The furry about President Liucoln's per-
mission to Frank Blair to withdraw bis res
ignation OF Major Generalship has elected
the fact that. from Gen Jackson's day to this,
it has been the practice, both in the Army
and Navy, to permit officers to withdraw res
iguations. We observe that distinction is
claimed in this case because Blair ceased by
law to be General when he took his seat in
Congress. We don't see the point. Would
he not have ceased to be General by law on
the acceptance Of his resignation, had he not
taken his seat in Congress If in that case
he could be restored by withdrawal Of his
resignation, we do not see why be could not
as well be in the actual case, on both with
drawing his resignation as General and re-
signing his seat as NJ. c. Nevertheless it
seems to us that in neither case should the
President permit resignation to be recalled
but rather nominate to the Senate for re ap-
pointmen. President Lincoln has followed
examples that were hardly courteous TO the
Senate, II lawful though doubtless he in
tended no discourtesy.

Mr.. Pike Of Maine said in Congress the
other day, that the fishermen of New Eng
land had no agency in making the miscsled
reciprocity treaty, and have gained nothing
by it that il the manufacturers were for II,
they got cheated and, finally, tina, Canadian
agents and money we're very influential
Canada did have agents at Washington, and
doubtless they spent their money freely in
good dinners. We confidently declare to
friend Pike that political influences were most
potent Of all in carrying the treaty through
the Senate. Southern men went for the treaty
to keep Canada out Of the Union, and cheat
Freedom and the North Of the advantage to
be derived from the annexation Of Canada
That was the card played by the Canadian
agents, and it succeeded. The refusal Of the
House to abrogate that treaty unconditional
~ is both unstates manlike and unpa;riotc.-
1t is utterly inexcusabe moreover, because
the House itself voted that the treaty is I'M
just to our own people. Why tolerate that
injustice a moment beyond the time required
by the treaty

for that purpose. But the smudge was SO
grea; as to suffocste him, and he was found

The act of the republican caucusses OF the

sion Of the gentleman claiming seats as sens-

iii such state shall have established loyal
state government, and Congress shall have
recognized such government as loyal These

1t is said the business men Of Boston are
very generally signing petition to Congress,
asking that the national banks be required to
keep proportion Of their reserved fund in
gold. This is the very thing Senator Cola
m er proposed in the Senate, and it was re-
jected. Many Senators seem to think the
banks cannot make profit enough by legiti-
mate banking to induce capitalists to go in
to them. That is a bad argument for the
scheme. We think it is a mistake.
