them SO frequently TO glorious victory.
Every day their determination to stand

coming more and more apparent, and the
the Radical leaders are gnashing their
teeth in bitter and impotent rage as they
witness these marked defections from

LETTER FROM WASHINGTON
WASHINGTON, D. C, May 9. 1866.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 9. 1866.
.Messrs. Editors Of Free Press:
The speech of Hon J. S MORRILL,
on the Revenue bill, has of course attracted wide
attention. The prevalent opinion Of it here is
well expressed by the Washington Morning
Chronicle, which says-"IIis speech brought
the subject Of internal taxation before the coun-
try in a manner that proves him to be one Of
the most thoughtful statesmen Of the times We
shall recur to his arguments and figures as to a
volume of knowledge on a most intricate sub
ject."
VermOnters here, as elsewhere, are Of course
proud to see the fitness Of Mr.. Morrill, for his
laborious and most responsible position as
Chairman of the Committee on WAYS and Means,
so fully demonstrated, as it has been thus far
throughout this important session. He deserves
well of the people of Vernon ID it would be
deemed strange indeed, by II corning men of
other States who recognize ll- Ugh ability and
incOrruptible honesty, if the men Of his own
State should fail to appreciate the honor he does
them, or to show that appreciation when the
occasion arrives.
The course of our new Senators is, of course,
closely watched. The stand taken by Mr. Pc
land ON the Stockton case, and his course in op-
posing Trumbull's amendment to the Post Office
appropriation bill, are pointed to as siraWf'
telling (which way the wind blows. The
straws may however give mistaken impression
in this case. l believe that l. ?. Poland Is a
very conscientious man and slave to no party
He is an able lawyer and not willing to yield
his opinions to any man on CONSTITUTIONS law
He is slso Union man, and 50 long as the
measures of that party are consistent with his
views they will receive his vote, and no longer

VT. CENTRAL BoSDs.-The comparatively
high price of VT. Central First Mortgages,
is partly explained by the fact that they car
ry with them some Ten years back interest
unpaid. An arrangement has been made
between the Vermont and Canada ami Yer
mont Central first and second mortgages, by
which the back interest on the first mortga-
ges will be settled by the issue Of new BONDS
to the amount of so per cent, and it is con-
fdently stated by those who are most con-
versant with its affairs, that tn net eaTtIH-s
of the road will, in the course Of one o. wo
years, be sufficient to pay the interest on AL
the issues, including the second mortgage.

never worth fighting for, except as an
instrument of power in national politics,
and they have gained, and not lost, in
this respect, by the recent change in the
status of the negro. do not believe
that the people of the North who were
SO restless under the injustice of the
three-hfths representation clause in the
constitution, will acquiesce in the greater
injustice which President Johnson's pol
icy, if carried out, will impose on them.
The conservatism which defends only
abuses, and the magnanimity which
gives both our friends and ourselves
bound into the hands of our own and
our country's enemies, cannot believe

pie. :. .-r...- .'..-... Hal.
