The Vermont Brigade.

The following description Of this
noted brigade was written by zone
who did not belong to it, and who
never was in Vermont 1t will be
seen, by the tenor of the article, that
the writer is no hatterer, although the
relation of the truth constitutes his
production complimentary to the gal,
liant "Green Mountain Boys"
"They were honest farmers turned
vagabonds. They were simple coun-
trymen changed into heroes. They
were quiet townsmen that had become
rovers. They stole ancient horses and
bony cows on the march. They
pillaged moderately in other things
They swept the dairies, and they strip
ped the orchards for miles where they
travelled. TLey chased rabbits when
they went into camp, after long
marches, and they yelled like wild
Indians when neighboring camps
were silent through fatigue. They
were i'll disciplined and familiar with
their officers. The staggered in a
cool, impudent way, and looken down
with a patronizing Yankee GOODNESS
upon all regiments that were better
drilled. and upon that part of the army
generally that did not belong to the
Vermont bridgade. They were
strangely proud, not of themselves
individually, but Of the brigade col
lectively; for they knew perfectly well
they were the best fighters in the
known world They were long of
limb, and could outmarch the army.
They were Individually selfreliant and
skillul in the use of arms and they
honestly believed that the Vermont
brigade could not be beaten by all the
combined armies of the rebellion.
"They were veterans in fighting
qualities almost from their first skir-
mlsh. Fhis was at Lees Mills. They
crossed narrow dam under fire,
made the attack they were instructed
to make, came back, wading deep in
the water, with steadiness that sur
prised the army. They were an in
corrigible, irregular, noisy set Of ras
Gals. They were much sworn at dur
ing their four years of service yet
they were at all times pet brigade

Charge of the Mule Brigade. VI

On the night of October 28, 1865
when Gen. Geary's division of tn
Twelfth corps repulsed the attacking
forces Of Longstreet at Wauhatchie
Tenn, number Of mules, affrighte
by the noise of battle, dashed into tn
ranks of Hampton's Legion, causin!
much dismay among the rebels, an,
compelling many of them to fall back
under supposed charge of cavalry.
Capt. Thomas H. Elliott, of Gen
Geary's staff, gives the following rend
ition Of the incident, which he CLEAN
ed from an interior contemporary
Its authorship is not known:
Half mile, half mile,
Half mile onward.
Right towards tho Georgia troors,
Broke tho two hundred.
Forward, the Mule Brigade"
''Charge for the Rebs!" they neighed
Straight for the Georgia troops
Broke the two hundred.
"Forward, the Mule Brigade I"
Was there q mule dismayod?
Not when the long cars felt
All their ropes sundered;
Theirs not to make reply;
Theirs not to reason why;
Theirs but to make them fly.
On to the Georgia troops,
Broke the two hundred.
III.
Mules to the right of them.
Mules to the left Of them,
Mules behind them,
Paved, brayed and thundered.
Breaking their own confines,
Breaking through Longstreet's lines,
Into the Georgia troops
Stormed the two hundred.
".
Wild all their eyes did glare,
Whisked all their tails in air,
Scattering the chivalry there,
While all the world wondered.
Not mule back bestraddled.
Yet how the all skedaddled
Fled every Georgian.
Unsabred, unsaddled,
Scattered and sundcred,
How they were routed there
by the two hundred
Mules to the right of them,
Mules to the left of them,
Mules behind them
Paved, brayod. and thundered:
Followed by hoof and head,
Full many hero fed,
Fain in the last ditch dead,
Back from an ''ass's Jaw
All that was left of them,
Left by the two hundred.
VI.
When can their glory fade !?
0 the wild charge they made
All tho world wondered
Honor the charge they made,
Honor the Mule Brigade,
Long-eared two hundred

nat ana talks so dlSmal
| The Baltimore american tells the
following story:
Some weeks since, when the Board
of School Commissioners suddenly
awoke to the Importance of having a
thorough vaccination of the teachers
and pupils Of the public schools, and
after the receipt from New York of
the quills containing the vaccine virus,
each member of the Board took two
Of the quills with him, either to show
as curlosities or to use among his fam
lily. One very estimable gentleman of
the Board, not familiar with the use of
the virus attached to the open end of
the quill, on his way home stopped at
his club.room, where several friends
were sitting in conversation. He ex-
hibited quill, and explained in his
own way its use, when one of those
present, an officer in one of our Courts,
expressed desire to be vaccinated.
The amiable Commissioner was equal
to the emergency, and telling his
friend to bare his arm, proceeded with
the vaccination. He first made cut,
which caused some pain and plenti-
full flow of blood. He then with his
knife cut off the pithy end of the
quill, and with no little pain to his
friend rubbed the pith into the wound,
throwing the only valuable part of the
quill (that having the virus) away.
The result has been that the friend
vaccinated by the new process has
now very sore arm, and at times has
had to carry it in sling. His friends
are anxiously awaiting to see a crop of
goose feathers as the result of the
operation.

ALMOST Too Much FAMILIARITY.-Rev
Sydney Smith was complaining OF
Young gentleman who, although many
years his junior, was in the habit OF ad-
dressing him by his Christian name, a
privilege which, as the witty canon of St
Paurs remarked, he only allowed his
most intimate friends. Shortly after, the
gentleman in question entered the room,
and Familiarity addressing Smith as "Syd
ney," inquired how he thought Of spend
ing the day. For my part" he added
the Archbishop of Canterbury has often
invited me to pay him visit at Adding
ton Park, and | think | shall drive down
and return in the cool of the evening"
"Ah,n replied Smith, "let me give you q
piece of advice; | know something OF the
Arch bishop; he is a very excellent man
but rather proud; don't call him will
liam he might not like it," OF course q
roar of laughter followed this significant
speech, and, as the door closed behind the
discounted youth, Sydney turned round
and quietly remarked, Il think | have
settled the cool of the evening at last"
A RAILROAD case was recently tried in
Indiana which establishes valuable pre-
cedent in fixing one Of the rights of trav
elers. One Mrs. Winscott had ticket tc
pass over the Ohio 81 Mississippi Rail
road, from Seymour to Brownstown. The
| train failed to stop at the latter place a
sufficient length of time for the lady to
get off in safety. Before the train had
got quarter Of a mile away, she requested
the conductor to stop the train, which he
refused to do, and carried her eight miles
| away, also refusing to stop at VallOnia
which was only four miles from Browns
town. Mrs. Winscott, therefore, brought
suit before Justice of the Peace and re
covered judgment for $50 damages. The
case was appealed by the company to the
Court of Common Pleas, in which she re
covered 500, the whole amount Of dam
ages claimed. The court instructed the
jury that the train should have been
stopped a sufficient length Of time to al

What though the weary feet in darkness grope?

That N the West there shines as bright

Steadily.

And browse away another dreamfu day

For who In fullness greets the flaming West
Must stand upon the mountains mastered crest
There is light behind the mountain,
Lifted eyes

One other look, which words may not define

Up from the valley to effulgent day.

Valuable.

Fire insurance is regarded everywhere
as among the necessaries of life. A prop
erty-holder is reckless without it. Life
Insurance is now classed with fire insur-
ance in this particular. The National
Life Insurance Company of the United
States of America, with Branch Office at
Philadelphia with which correspondence
should be had, with the largest cash cap
ital of any life insurance company in the
world, offers insurance in ali sections of
the country at three -fou1ths the customary
rates, and desires an agent in every local.
ty 1t combines absolute strength with
unusual cheapness, is managed by some
of the best men of the country, and is
we'll worthy the patronage of all persons
seeking insurance, and the attention of
all persons seeking employment.
