Rear-Admiral Gherardi called at the Swatara III

in tow by the Navy Yard tug Nina, passed the
Barge Office, where she was scrutinizcd by many

the expectation that his perfect recovery Is no"
only matter of days. - !.

A Mnr Incident.

An interesting incident of the war was
recalled last week by the announcement in
the Boston journal that a silver shield
shaped medal had been found in an old
house in Chelsea Mass with this inscI iption :
Willie johnson, aged l3 years. Company
ID, Third Vermont regiment. Presented
with "A medal for carrying this drum
through the seven days fight before Rich
mond, being the only drum carried through
in the regiment, the last of June and the
first Of July" The drum to which the
medal was attached was found and it now
awaits the claim of the owner orhis friends
at the office of the sergeant alarms at the
state house
The st. Johnsbury Republican says in
substance that veterans of the third regi-
ment claim that Johnson was not entitled
10 the credit he received, as his drum was
snugly tucked away in baggage wagon
during those seven terrible days. The Bur
lmgton Free Press very aptly replies to the
Republican that detrartors from eN cry cred
table deed performed during the war may
be found, aud that as less than 500 of these
medals were awarded for individual merit
out of 5000, 900 soldiers enlisted it does
not seem probable that the honor bestowed
upon young johnson was undeserved Maj
Otis f. r. Waite of Claremont, ~ H., in
his ''NermOnt in the Great Rebellion, " YER
ifies the Free Press's statements by saying
willie johnson, l3 years old, of St Johns
bury, drummer hoy in company ID, third
Vermont regiment, received medal for
his heroic conduct in the seven days fight
before Richmond. On the retreat, when
strong men threw away their guns, knap
sacks and blankets, that they might have
less weight 10 carry, this little fellow kept
his drum, and brought it safely to Harri
sons Landing where he had the honor Of
drumming for division parade, being the
only drummer who brought his drum from
the field, When these facts were reported
10 the war department by the division com
mander, Willie was presented with medal
of honor by Secretary Stanton in person.
