The Republican District Conven-
ton at White River Junction next
Tuesday, will no doubt be fully at
tended and quite lively. We notice
that large number of candidates for
the congressional nomination are in
the field. But Whether "Uncle Dud.
can poll votes enough to secure the
nomination, yet remains to be seen.
The post-officc brigade will of course
support him. But look out for the
fun.

man that recently one of Col. Proctcrs
men was caught fishing in the Colonies
pond, which Is not posted, and that
the Colonel took $50 out OF ms pay
tor that little transaction. This shows
what he is for God knows that every
man in his employ needs all the Col
onel pays TO keep soul and body to
gcthcr. His nomination was direct in
suit 10 every laboring man, a burleSquc
on every soldier who was under the
fire, and the worst load the Republi.
cans of Vermont ever undertook TO
carry. We see tho beauty OF the fish
law in the $40 transaction, and also
the beauty Of Col. Proctor as liberal
man. We shall speak Of tho coffin
business in duo time, which is meanel
than the fishing. II Col. Proctor

citizen and business man to elect him

How it Happened.

A Hamlet correspondent of the
Wilmington star says that In a grave.
yard neal that place, the bodies OF five
murdered men lie buried within fit
teen feet of each other"
And some people might suppose that
this, too. was d slauder on Hamlet, Il
it is not, when the real facts in the
case are understood. It is true. as
this correspondents SAYS, that the
tai remains of five murdered men lie
"moulderlng in the clay. (sand) near
Hamlet. but this must o be con
sideIed as indicating that the place is
boi.terous or dangerous. for il is not.
We do not know how came the five
men to be murdered. but suppose that
it must have occurred in this way ::
Hamlet was a new place, and was
without a grave yard, which it must
have to complete lis claim to being a
city. Being located on a high sand
ridge. il was SO very healthy zone IF
the inhabitants would die. so these
five poor fellows offered themselves
up a sacrifice for the good of Hamlet.
aud were slain for no other reason or
purpose in the world than that u grave
yard for the place might be started
We make this explanation in justice
to Hamlet RockiHyhdm Sonth.

How the Cadets Fought

As North Carolina had q good many
boys in the old Lexington (Na.) Mill
tary Institute. the following account
written by a Yankee soldier. will be
read with interest. 1t was at the Bat
tie of New Market. IN the VALLEY of
Va:

ate skirmishers advanced and opened
fire. the Federal skirmisherS falling
back. and a few MINUTES later the Con

conspicuou~ly seen the Lexington ca
diets with Their institute colorS waving
over them, all boys from feurteen to
eighteen years of age, going for the
first time into battle. came into view
about a mile distant. The line was
over a mile long. and they marched
steadily and quickly forward. keeping
weld essed west to east. and every
few seconds giving uttersnce 20 the
w~ell-known Rebel yell
The Federal batteries waited until
the distance between the opposing
liEeS were reduced to less than half a
mile. ana then all at once opened fire.
The first round appeared to stagger
them, but they quickly rallied, cor
rected the confusion. and charged
$ raignt for tn. batteries, in the M an
time pouring In a close and concentra-
ted fire. The Federal guns now
opened upon them with grape and
canister. and the infantry began to
pour III its muSSetry fire and in a few
moments one of the closest and most
determined battles of the war. accord
ing to tho numbers engaged. was under
Roadway.
1t was observed that the C~onfeder-
ateS made but n charge III this bat
tie, and tina was the first The most
heroic efforts on the part of the Fede-
rails could no break the impetus If
this Charge. The { onfederate line. it
is true. halt d several times, but only
to pour III a concentrated mus
kerry fra. The artillerymen of Car
Inns battery fitted through the smoke
and flame of their guns ike demons,
while at every discharge of their
pieces the earth would quake. and i'm
mense gaps would be torn in the Con-
federate lines. but they would close
them up again with military precision,
the living stepping iuto the places of
tile DYING and the dead and once more
march on, while above all the roar and
craze Of the fight could be heard the
shrlil rebel cry OF the Lexington Ca
diets. Fully one-third OF these brave
boys were killed or carried from the
field severely wounded.
