lecture, bltthat it is st an end and hostities re-

succeeded in vounding two ofbis opponents, but

days, without anything 10 eat except green. beet,
and barely enough Of that to sustain life. Foot.
sore, tired, and wish heav5 and sad hearts, but
by no. means subdued Or conquered, we started
for our homes in various parts of the Confedera-
cy, and trudged on without rstions through Fir-
ginia and North Carolina So weak and tired,
that butfor the hope Of getting. home, the ply,
sical man must have given vav. Without trans
portatiou, e1ceptas We pressed ,it, we passed
through N. O., and crossed the Catawbai into.
South Carolina, there finding train of cars wait
ing to convey a freight of toil.worn and weary
veterans. The conductor was kind and sawl that
ali had seats. Arriving IN Chester, Ue were met.
by grey haired fathers, who extended their hands
in friendship, telling US to, go to the Commissary
and get ratons, that there was plenty for US, and
then that the ladies would cook them. We re-
mainsd thatnight, and there being no railroad,
marched So miles On the way 30 New5erry.
When We learned that BY going to Hope Station
We could ride II miles. Going there We. found
it SO, and took cars for NeRberry. Arriving
there We went to the Hotel, but could find no
clerk or any one tosteu US if we could have sup

and calling at Hrs. DR.. E., we're invited in, had
supper, good lodging, and breakfast next morn
Ing, for all Of which the kind lady refaseds any,

Greenwood, where the good ladies had dinner
prepared for us. God bless the ladies, again I
say. Many of Us soldiers are single men, and

front of the city itself the most perfect
batteries are constructed. Two of these
contained guns of English manufacture,
carrying a projectile weighing $50 lbs
They were both burst on the day of the
evacuation, and thus disabled, they re-
mained as objects of curiosity. All
their other guns, of which there are a
large number, are in our possession,
and, though many OF them are spiked,
they can easily be made available for
use.
Fort Sumter was never so strong as
to-day. At a distance it appears to be
an immense pile of debris, a shapeless
mass of crumbled brick rising from the
water, but on examination it is found
to be fort still, and complete bomb
proof so strong that the heaviest pro-
iectile can make but little impression.
1t is reported that rebel captain sta
toned at Sumter, was accustomed to
collect the missiles thrown by Yankee
guns at that fort alone, and selling
them as old iron realized $4,000.
Lieut.. Col. VIM. Ames, of the Sd R. l.
Heavy Artillery, Chief of Artillery for
the Department of the South, and
most gallant officer who has for a
long time conducted the siege against
Charleston, informed me that in the
year 1854, 1,615,000 lbs of solid shot and
10000 shells were thrown into the city
Of Charleston by our guns on Morris
and James Islands. You can judge
from this something of the damage
done.
The most bitter pill that the Charles
tonians are obliged to take is that Of
being guarded by cOlored soldiers
They are submitting to it however with
eommendable grace, and we have no
doubt that it will improve their mental
health. But little is known here of
Sherman, but he is supposed to be march
ing VIGOROUSLY on. Surely the weak
est heart cannot but take courage. The
darkest hour has passed and the glori-
Gus daylight is fast dawning. E. H. P.

Editor Rutland Herald Allow. me,
through your paper, to call the attention
of the Sheep and Stock raisers of Yer
mont, 20 the International Exhibition,
to be held at Stettin, in the Kingdom of
Prussia, to commence ON the 10th day of
May next.
Vermont secured an enviable reputa-
tiOn at the International Exhibition of
1868. The sheep left in Europe and
sold to Count Sherr Thoss, have given
perfect satisfaction, and during the year
now passed, a large number of letters
from German Agricultural Societies and
Others in Europe, have been received IN
America, making inquiries with refer
ence to purchasing American Sheep for
the European market.
This exhibition will give Vermont q
most excellent opportunity to complete
the work she so well began in 1868, and
thus secure foreign demand for Yer
mont Merinoes, which for many years
to come will bring large sums Of for
eign money to the Green Mountain State.
