It is reported that the devil Of the
Providence Herald expressed a deter
mination to hang himself the other day.
He said he had endured great deal in
his life, and had, he trusted, behaved
under afiliction with proper diabolical
fortitude, but he had never expected to
see such a word in a respectable journal
as .'reviviccency," and its appearance in
the Herald was too much for his sensi-
tive spirit

with pleasure that we announce, this
morning, and we know that the an
nouncement will be gratifying 10 our
readers, and the many friends. and adj
mirers of Mrs. Dorr everywhere, that ].
B. Lippincott & Co., of Philadelphia,
have in press and viii publish, this fall,
a new work by Mrs. Julia c. r. Dorr.
1t is entitled 'Expiation, and is a story
of New England life, a field in which
Mrs. Dorr is perfectly at home, and
which her happy and facile pen, her
graphic powers Of description and her
charming and graceful narrative renders
so attractive. She already stands in the
front rank Of American authors, both
in poesy and prose, and this, her latest
work, can but add to her well won laur-
els. We congratulate the lovers Of pure
literature on the rich treat, which is,
evidently, in store for them.

i mayor G6H. hNDdETb'h.
DEAR SIR,-I have read with deep
feelings of regret the statement of Major
HazletOn. in reference to the charge
of the 1st Vermont at B0onsboro. [ was
in that charge and captain. ii took
place at the close of the day: il was
made down the pike straight on q bridge:
| remember it distinctly You i0inod
us when the charge sounded, with vour
battle flags. | do not remember the
language YOU used. and don't care: it
was a moment of great excitement.
Gen. BoaufOrd was charging on our
right, and you were ambitious to pass
him, ndmay have used emphatic words.
and they told and for good; but one in
cidcntI do remember Just rs we struck
the enemy you were in advance, Charles
Lappin. Of my company. was riding
just on your right, and little in adj
vance, when a battle opened and a solid
shot struck four horses, passed Just in
your front, and cut off the legs of poor
"Charley. He now lives at or near
Crown Point.
General, you were always brave; we
were proud Of Won in war time as our
commander, and you will never want
old comrades to defend or praise you.

AFFIDAVIT OF W. NJ, FLADER8.
I, w. NJ. Flanders, of Clarendon. in
the County of Rutland, on oath, depose
and say that [ was a member of Co. T.
of Harris Light Cavalry, and was pre-
sent at the battle of BoOnesb0rO on the
9Th day Of July, 1868. I have read the
statement published in THE RUTLAND
HERALD this morning, signed Major
Hazleton. | also say that the Harris
Light Cavalry, with a portion of tie 9Th
n. Y. and 8th Illinois Regiments, were
in advance, and Gen. Fitzpatrick led the
charge in person. There may have been
a few Vermont troops in the charge but
| sGw none myself. [ do not know what
language Gen. Fitzpatrick may have used
to Mai. Hazleton and his men, but | do
know that when we struck the enemy it
was before we reached the log house
spoken of in the article in THE HERALD,
and that Gen. Fitzpatrick with his bat
tie flag, was among the foremost, and
that when we passed the log house, the
enemy were in full flight, running at the
top of their speed, and the battle was
ended.
e l served under Gen. Fitzpatrick from
Sept. 1862, until Jan. 1864, and I have
never heard his courage questioned
either in or out Of the army, until l read
Mai. Hazleton's article this morning.
| make this affidavit in justice to Gen.
Fitzpatrick, whom | have always known
as a fearless and gallant soldier. although
I cannot sympathize with him in his
support of Greeley, as I expect, if live
until November, | shall vote for Grant.

Mr.. 4. L.. Stanton was NEXT introduced. ana
said that Q little more than . year ago they had
elected Gen. Chapman because efe desire to zee
improvements in the District, and they had not
only seen improvements everywhere, but people
were employed and business had increased.
Had they changed since then, did they desire
past, country village? He assumed that they
did lot, and that they were willing to support
again the man whose election to Congress would
most promote the prosperity OF the city, one
evidence OF which is seen In the twenty miles of
beautifully improved streets, and he wished it
understood that these streets were not of as
much service TO the the rich man as to working
men and b0&n ness men for with easy grades hot
with carts and wagons and drays could haul large
loads and more speedily, and thus transaction
OF business be sxpedient and cheSpened
Neither was the constrr ctiop of sewers OF more
Importance to the rich man, for he could con-
struct drains ct his OwE,expense, while our sys-
TEN of sewerage keeps pestilence from hum
bier tenements, thus protecting the whole
community. II the improvements are now
checked the people would feel the effect in
the increase Of crime and pauperism, for want
of work is q great incentive to idleness and
crime: Referring to the saying of President
Lincoln, &" 1t Is dangerous 70 swap horses when
crossing stream" he asked II they were ready
now TO drop Gen. Chapman when he had pre-
pared many measures for the benefit OF the
District to present to Congress, and had
done more for this District than lad been done
for sny single Congressional district in the
Unicl.
