After the Muster.

The state muster is over and the
soldier boys have returned to the pur-
suits of peace. 1t was a nice affair.
The officers of he regiment are gentle
men and so are large share of the
rank and file but there was an ele-
ment of lawlessness and deviltry in
the body which i'll becomes guardians
of the public veal. The dreadful ac-
cident on Thursday by which Il man
lost his right arm might as well have
occurred any Fourth of July. This
alone east gloom over the entire oc-
casiOn. But the playful" manner of
the boys as exhibited in the destruc-
ton of the Passumpsic railroad ticket
office on the camp-ground, the burning
of Lougee's refreshment booth, the
stealing of fifty dollars worth OF
/ spoons and knives and forks from the
suffer; together with their nightly
perambulations of the streets of the
town frightening women and yelling
I for whisky-all these things and more
helped to reconcile our people to theil
departure. 1t was a very nice muster
| but its lawless side was a serious
] blemish.
