A Singular Incident.

A correspondent of the Boston Journ-
al relates the following:
"There are more things in heaven and
earth, Horatio than are dreamt of in
your philosophy" So says Shakespeare,
ard so we are still constrained to say,
as incidents occur that we cannot ex-
plain, and which battle all our efforts to
account for them. One of these we are
about to 'narrate. A few miles from the
Kennebec river, in Maine, there resides
a farmer, three of whose sons have
fought in the service of their country,
two of whom have given up their lives
in the struggle with this wicked rebel
lion. In January, 1868, member Of
this family q little child two and half
years old, was sick of diphtheria. The
mother, grandfather and other men,
bers of the family were there, minister
ing to the little sufferer But the faith
er of the child was absent. He was one
Of the sons already referred to, and was
away in the service of his country. 1t
would scarcely be supposed that child
so young would remember an absent
one but the father had so often been
spoken of that, whether distinctly re-
membered or not, he was present to the
mind of the child as dearly-loved OBJ
ject of affection. And now as the lit
tie one grows weaker and is anxiously
! watched and cared for, he said in his
! feeble voice, 81 want to go and see pa
pa, and died.
| We now pass to Falmouth, in Virgin
| Ia There, in the regimental hospital,
| lies a sick soldier. He is far away from
home and home privileges; but the sur
geons and nurses care for him and do
what they can to help him, and that
noble son Of Maine, Gen. Howard min
listers to his spiritual as well as his
physical wants. On the same evening
on which the child died, General How
ard was in the hospital, when the
soldier sat up and pointed to the
door and said, "Look there, Gener-
al" Seeing nothing, and supposing
the man was delirious, he made bnt
little reply; when the soldier again said
with earnestness: Don't you see, Gen.
eral 2" He replied that he did not.
"Why, how strange that you don't !"
said the soldier. "There is little boy
coming in, it is my boy and he is an
angel" The soldier knew not that his
child was sick. He himself died few
days afterward. A letter was after
wards received in the hospital announc-
ing the death of the child; and when
the father of the soldier went to Fall
mouth to obtain the body of his son,
the surgeon made inquiries respecting
the child, and narrating the soldiers
vision; and it was found that the death
Of the child occurred at the same time
as the father spoke of seeing him. Gen
Howard afterwards correlated the state.

ed the facts from the father of the
young soldier. He is reliable Chris
tain man, and Selectman of his town /;
and there is no doubt of the truth OF
his statements. We have no theory
to propose as solution of the mystery.
We merely give the facts as singular and

Wells continued the pursuit as rapidly
as possible, the enemy endeavoring to
obstruct the road by telling trees and

devilish hope that some of our daring

road to the left. In front of Wells the
enemy made several attemps to make a

Numbers, XIII, %, Mr.. seaver pro-

wrought" for the liberty, progress and
happiness Of the whole human race,
through the downfall of the enemies of
human freedom and popular govern
ment. The fall of Richmond has brOk-
en- the shackles of every slave on the
earth; the practicability of successful
republican government is demon
strated to all nations and an ex-
ample is set before them which they
will sooner or later follow; free
government, free schools, a free bible
and a free church, are ensured to
all mankind while the rebellion itself,
ended by the fall of the Confederate cap
ital, is but the bursting of the Chrysa-
lis setting this nation free to rise to a.
higher form of development and a

course, only the general tenor of which
is noted above, was very interesting, iR-

From the Ninth Vermon'.
ENTRY INTO RICHMOND.

RICHMOND, VA,
April 4th, 1865
Editor Rutland Herald Richmond
has fallen" At 3 o'clock, A. M, April
3rd, deserters brought the report that
the Richmond front of the rebel works
was being evacuated. The d" On to
Richmond was ordered, and at day
light the picket line of the 2nd brigade,
3rd division, oath corps advanced and
took. possession of the enemy's picket
line, few prisoners were captured and
the forts reconnoitered an intelligent
"JoAany z was selected as guide, and
distinctly informed that he was not ex-
pected to lead the troops on to tOrpedoes
or other Internal machines. Advancing
to the line OF abattis, the skirmishers
were halted, and the numerous red cloth
badges that mark the localities of tor
pedoes, pointed out, when, carefully fl
ing through narrow opening in the
outer works, the lise reformed in rear
of Forts Gilmer and Henry. Advancing
rapidly towards the city, we soon ar
rived near the inner defences. The de-
tail of the 9th Vermont Vols, consisting
of three officers and one hundred enlist
ed men were sent forward as skirmish-
ers, the remainder of the picket line be-
ing formed in support. After proceed
ing short distance in this order, it
was ascertained that the camps and
forts were all deserted, and the task be-
fore US was simply to go forward and
take possession of the abandoned Capt.
tai.
At this time a brigade of colored
troops from the 25th Army Corps came
up, and rushed forward to be the first
in Richmond, but the praCticed "dou5le
q"ick" of the veterans of the old 18th
Army Corps was in too fast time for the
enthusiasm of the darkies, and they had
to fall behind.
Near the city Maj Gen. Weitzel and
staff rode to the front, aud, amidst the
shouts and cheers of liberated people
the stars and stripes passed proudly
through the streets of the treason STAIN
ed capital of Secessia.
The first troops in the city were the
picket line Of the I'd brigade, 3rd divis-
ion, oath Army Corps. The 9th Vermont
Volunteers is the infantry regiment
whose representatives first entered the
Capital of Rebellion. The city was on
fire in many places, the flames spread
rapidly, and the lower portion of the
city was soon Il surging mass Of fire.
Most Of the government buildings, with
a large amount OF private property, were
destroyed
The capture OF ordnance and quarter
master stores is unprecedented the
number of prisoners is also large. The
entrance to the city was more like an
ovation to returned heroes than the
surrender of conquered capital. The
streets were lined with the inhabitants,
both white and black, and the cheers
and songs of gadness from the side
walks drowned the shouts of iov from
the victorious soldiers in the streets.

DECLINED TO FIGHT.-The rebel ram
"Stonewall" has been lying in the har
Dor of Ferrol, Spain, for some time. and
N the harbor of Corunna, few miles
distant, two U. S. Steamers, the Mag
ara and Sacramento, have been watch
ing her. About noon on the 2lst ult.,
the Stonewall was observed to be mov-
ing seaward, followed by the Spanish
frigate Conception, and the Niagara and
Sacramento Immediately started to meet
and attack her. As the officers of the
Stonewall had expressed their determ-
ination and desire to fight the United
states vessels, desperate naval battle
was anticipated, and the shores were
soon crowded with an expectant multi
tude. But all were doomed to disap-
polntmenti for when the Niagara and
Sacramento had nearly got within range
Of the Stonewan the latter suddenly
turned round and put back to her an
chorage.

The VERMONT CAvALRY.-The 1st Ver-

part and displayed their wonted gal
lantry in the pursuit of Lee. The cor
respondent of the New York Times,
writing from Amelia County, Va, April
Sd, says:
"This morning Clusters division left
camp at point several miles east of Ma
moline Creek, and made a rapid move
ment up what is called the Namozine
road, leading into Amelia County. At
the ford on Namozine Greek the rebels
were found to be strongly intrenched
behind earthworks to cover the crossing.
The 8th New York, Major Bliss, of Wells
brigade, had the advance. A part of the
1st Vermont, under Capt. Hazeltine,
went up the stream a short distance and
succeeded in effecting crossing, flank
ing the enemys position. Lords section
of artillery was brought up within easy
range to the left of the ford, and stimuli
taneOusly the ball was opened, firing
grape shot at easy range. The enemy
were so taken by surprise they having

A CROW SToRY,-0ne day last week,
says a correspondent, Joseph Reynolds,
in the employ of John S Emery, of
Wallinetord, observed several crows on
land belonging to Mr.. Emery. Going
towards them, all took their flight ex-
cept two, which were engaged in a fight.
So intent were they on their quarrel,
that Reynolds went up to them and
caught them by their tails, took them
to sugar house, set them down, and
instead OF attempting to escape, they
commenced their fight again. From
there they were taken to Mr.. Emery's
barn and deposited on the floor. They
at once picked themselves up, and went
in for the third round Finally they
were dispatched by Reynolds, who pro
poses to make scarecrows of them.
