-Messrs. Scheuek, Logan and others
spent some time Friday In the endeayor
to instruct the Speaker to announce the
committee on military affairs. Dir. Lo'
gan made an eloquent speech in favor of
It, but the House three times decidedly
refused. This was owing, first, to the
indlsposition of the House to raise any
more committees, and second, to save to
Col. Henry G. Deming of Hartford, the
second place on the committee. The
Speaker stated to the House that II in
structed to announce the committee, he
should complete 1t, and to do so now
would cut Deming of, when he iselected.
1t is not probable that any other COM
mittees will be announced this session in
the House.

IkcEEAsR OF INSANITY FROM INTEM-
rsRAxcB.-Dr. John E. Tyler Of Boston,
Superintendent of the Mclean Insane
Asylum, in his annual report, just issued
from the press, makes the following
painful statement
1.-THE excessive drinking o! wines and
spirits has brought insanity upon many
persoDs during the past year. This in.
diligence seems to be increasing very
greatly, and its consequences are indeed
alarming. More persons, and chiefly
young men, either positively insane or
who have been seriously damaged ment-
ally and physically by this cause, have
come under our Rroie ssional observation,
or have applied here for advice and re-
lief during the last year than we can

He enj Eyed the conf ienoe and respect
OF his townsmen, being often elected 10
offices of trust and responsibility.
He was emphatlcally true man, true
10 himself, true TO his word and true 10
his God. Cut on as he was In the midst
of activity and usefulness, his death Is
one OF those mysterious and dark dis
pensations OF that Providence whose
ways are not as m,n's ways" which
bringing home TO the most careless the
sense OF the frail tensre OF life, awes the
mind into stiffness and solemnity; bus
severely as the blow must be felt by the
dearer friends OF his own .amiiy, the
sorrow OF others for the death OF a vir-
tuous aud pious man, whose life had
been devoted 10 the service ofhis Maker,
the duties Of his station in life and the
best interests of society, have in 1t little
Of bitterness; 1t is sad, and solemn, and
calm, and durable. Peace TO his ashes.

A STRANGE AFPAIR.-ThC Bellows
Falls times says that letter has been
received at the Adjutant Generals office
of Vermont, purportiug that Major BuX-
ton, late of the 18th regiment Of this
State, who was killed, (as generally un-
derstood), at Winchester, Virginia, Sep
TENDER 10Th, 1864, was still alive. The
letter, which is written as If by par
TALLY insane person, says that he has a
very strange story 10 tell, &C; and
trusts in God, he will be able to find his
wife, whom he has not seen for a long
time. Says he was wounded and left
on the field for dead, must have become
insane, as the next thing he remembers
he was in Springfield, Illinois, without
money or friends; subsequently enlisted
as d private In the 18th United States
Regulars, was discharged for disability
and is now awaiting transportation
home. The latter was sent to Bellows
Falls aud shown to Major BuXton's wife
and also to some Of his friends, none o.
whom think it is in the Majors hand
writing, OF whose death on the 10th OF
September, 1854, there does not seem tc
be particle Of doubt, as several of his
comrades testify to having seen bin
killed instantly, having been shot
through the head rs he rose up at a time
when his regiment were lying on the
ground They also saw him after he
was dead and his company sent home
his remains. All the details OF his death
are as well certified to as it is possible
they could be. But still there is such
extraordinary evidence that the letter
which is dated at Lynchburg, Va, might
have been written by the Major, that the
greatest excitement prevails. Every
effort is being made TO throw the light
of truth, or the stigma OF cruel impo
sition, on the affair.

meusely.

birth of an heir to Mr.. Redfeld. The
party broke up about one O'Clock a. m.
Just before the last dance, MIR. Johnson,
the overseer of the carding department
moved that vote of thanks be extended
to Mr.. Redaeld for his liherality on this
occasion, and that the young heir be
gwen three cheers, both Of which were
heartily adopted. Thanks were also ex'
tended to Mrs. lockwood, the favoritt
boarding mistress. Mr.. Herrick Wood
ward and Mrs. lockwood had charge O.
the supper arrangements. Messrs. Chas
E. Smith, Oscar Pelton and Sumner Ha
ven were the general managers. Mr.

themselves on their success in engineer
the thing so successfully. W.

They used to hev breed in New

was in high repute among the land
lords, almost every tavern keeper had
one, which be used tew snow tew trav-
