Vermont i'm the War

The last report of the Adjut&nt and
In spector General of our State contains
some things which will interest those
into whose hands the report may never
come.
The aggregate number, officers and
men, who went forth to the war from
Vermont, was 28,967. OF these 1,071
were killed in action, and 701 died from
wounds received in action, in all l,772;
2645 died of disease, 629 died in rebel
prisons, and TS died from accident, in
all 1862. Thus it will be seen that more
than one-third Of all the deaths oC-
Cured on the battlefield, or as a conse-
quence OF wounds received there. This
shows either more sansuinary battles or
better sanitary provisions and condition
perhaps both-than the statistics of
any other war, continued for so long a
time, would reveal. And the result
would be still more remarkable if we
should take into account only the five
regiments which were in the service the
longest, and were engaged in more bat
tiles than any others of the infantry.
The Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth and
Sixth regiments lost on the battlefield,
or from wounds there received, 958 men
while the whole number Of deaths
from disease, casualty and in rebel
prisons was only 93S. The history Of
the Seventh regiment is very differ
ent, showing that in spite Of sani-
tary precautions, they found the Cli-
mate Of the extreme South where they
served, far more fatal to tkem than rebel
bullets or bayonets. OF their whole
loss, 400, only II died in action and of
wounds received in action.
The statistics OF the cavalry regi-
ment, compared with Others, would
seem to indicate that that branch of the
service, though undoubtedly more con-
.stantly ON the move, is yet more healthy
and really less hazardous than the in
fantry service. With an aggregate
number exceeding considerably any
other regiment except the Eleventh,
their loss by disease was obly 112, less
than any other of the regiments Of long
service. And though they were in 70
battles, almost three times as many as
any Of the other full regiments, their
loss in them all, killed and died of
wounds, was only 102, less than that Of
any other Of the three years regiments
except the Seventh and Ninth, which
last was in only four battles. But the
Rutland weekly herald. [volume] (Rutland, Vt.) 1859-1877, 1867-02-07

deem 1t our duty to set the public right
in the matter, by simply statir 9 that we
have the authority Of one Of the physi-
clans called to attend the afflicted on the
night Of the poisoning, that he was in
formed by Mr., Clark personally that
there was not particle of rhubarb in
his house on the night alluded to, nor
had there been for six months before,
Our readers can therefore judge for
themselves whether that was or could be
the cause of the poisoning.
In addition to the above we would say
that an analysis Of the food partaken OF
on the occasion has not yet been COM
pleted, and when it is we will endeavor
to lay the result before our readers.

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY c, 1867.
The Nebraska Bill.

The President on Tuesday last re.
turned to the Senate the bill for t a a..
mission of Nebraska as q State, q signing
similar reasons for its veto as fyr the re-
lection of the Colorado bill. The main
objection presented is that there is an
incongruity between the enabling act
and the constitution adopt cd by the PEG.
pie, and rests his rAain ar gument on the
suffrage clause, for the reason that 1t is
not mentione a in the original enabling
act. The Objectionable clause pro-
vides thS.t it "shsll not take effect
except upon the fundamental con-
dition that within the State Of Nebraska
theIe shall be no denial of the elective
IT anchise or of any other right to any
peTson by reason of race or color, except
ing Indians not taxed, and upon the fur
ther fundamental condition that the leg
Is lature OF said State bya solemn public
act shall declare the assent OF said State
to said fur damental condition, and shall
transmit 20 the President Of the United
States al authentic copy of said act
upon receipt whereof the President, by
proclamation, shall forthwith announce
the fact whereupon such Fundamental
condition shall be held as part of the
organic; law of the State, and thereupon
and " ithout further proceedings on the
part o Congress, the admission of said
State into the Union shall be considered
aeon lpltee." He says that this provision
has not heretofore been applied to the in
hab itants of any State asking admis-
sion and questions the power of Con-
gres IS to regulate the elective franchise Of
a I State applying for admission, thus
de- ;laring against the principle Of equal
50 frage.
The President holds therefore that if
a State has the requisite population and
has adopted a Republican form 0. gov
eminent, it should be admitted at once,
and without any qualification ignoring
entirely the principle of civil equality
proposed to be incorporated upon the
tGueTdl SOnSllGuLlOuJ anu uGuiCS ILC
right to demand a recognition of this
principle in the creation Of new govern
ments. He does not appear to give any
heed to the solemn judgment OF the peO-
pie as expressed by them at the ballot.
box, in the elections of last year-but
maintains what has heretofore been con-
sidered the extreme state sovereignty
doctrine, TO insist that the Federal au-
thorities have no prerogative ofinterfer-
ence with the institutions Of States al
ready existing.
1t is now for the first time announced
that Congress is debarred from prescrib-
ing the terms upon which Territory
shall be admitted into the Union. 1t
would seem from this, that no theory
which can be urged in supporter those
prejudices which were eDgenGered by
slavery and are its natural offspring is
too extraordinary for the support Of Mr..
johnson. From the announcement Of
this doctrine we have evidences that the
executive is determined 20 carry to the
last bitter extreme his opposition to the
popular sentiment of the North.

Washington Items,

wen. sheridan arrived at the Capllal
on Monday last, and was enthusiastically
welcomed on every hand.
"A bill has been introduced and re-
ferred to the ways and means committee,
to prohibit entirely the sale of gold by
the Treasury Department
The southern administration men
have telegraphed to Howell Cobb to
come on and help them in patching up
their new reconstruction plan.
Mr.. Ashley Of Chic has modified his
reconstruction bill in some particulars,
and will have it pressed in the com.
mittee on reconstruction at their meet
ing to-day.
The whiskey tax will not be re-
duced. Mr.. Wells, the revenue commits
sioner, is for Its reduction strongly, but
a majority of the committee so far ere
against him on this item.
1t is rumored that the SwatCra,
with surratt on board, is detained at the
mouth of the Potomac by ice. SrSrat
was indicted at Washington on Monday
for the murder of President Lincoln.
Owing to charges made that the
cadets at Annapolis are constantly sur
rounded by disloyal influences in the
social and business interests or the
place, the House committee on naval
affairs have been directed to inquire into
the expediepcy of removing the naval
academy to seme other section.
The Custom-house investigation de-
velops many unpleasant facts in the Bos-
ton and New York Custom houses. Col
lector Smythe is said to be compromised.
1t is alleged that Solicitor Jordan Of the
Treasury received several thousand dol
lars from in ormers, and that Mr.. Nor
rill Of Vermont last summer advised
him to resign in consequence, which he
did. The resignation was afterwards
recalled, after Congress had made its
appropriation for the salary Of the
solicitor. .JOrdans friends say that he
had right to pocket the money offered
him. Secretary McCulIoch has known
the facts charged against Jordan for
months.
The opponents OF contraction won
a decided victory in the House on Mon
day. The struggle was fierce and ex-
cited Tor an hour. Twice the.cpponents
of the present system were beaten, but
they rallied on the Grinnell resolution,
and by 20 majority committed the House
to legislation repeating the law aathoriz-
ing the Secretary of the Treasury to re-
tire four millions of greenbacks per
month for one year. Good judges say
that the Senate finance committee will
object to the bill to be passed by the
II Ouse to cover the resolution, and that
the Senate will sustain them in taking
such action. 1t looks doubtful, how
ever, bat the probabilities are in favor
of q compromise between the Senate and
House. The compound Interest notes
maturing this year will be redeemed
with fresh gr9enbacks or loan certf-
Gates, and it is possible that the amount
Of greenbacks which the Secretary has
power to retire will be reduced from four
to two millions per month.
