Il 4 CUATRO PESOS BARRIL /!
News and citizen. [volume] (Morrisville, Vt. ;) 1881-current, 1891-09-17
Tho vermoas D-,s.se.

The Vermont brigade was the pet
organization of the Army Of the Po-
tomac, and Miles O'Reilly described
them as honest farmers turned vaga-
bonds-simple countrymen changed
into heroes. They stole ancient
horses and bony cows on the march.
They pillaged moderately in other
things. They swept the dairies and
they stripped the orchards for miles
where they Travelled. They 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 ill-disciplined and familiar
with their officers. They staggered
in a cool, impudent way, and looked
down with a patronizing Yankee
GOODNESS upon all regiments that were
better drilled, and upon that part Of
the army generally that did not be-
long to the Vermont brigade. They
were strangely proud. not of them
selves individually, but ofthe brigade
collectively; for they knew perfestly
well they were the best fighters in the
known world. They were long of
limb, and could outmarch the army.
They were individually self-reliant
and skillful in the use of arms, and
they honestly believed that the YER
mont brigade could not be beaten by
the combined armies of the rebellion.
They were veterans in fighting quail
ties almost from the first skirmish.
This was at Lees Mills. They cross
ed a narrow dam under fire, made
the attack they were instructed TO
make, and came back wading deep in
the water, with a steadiness that sur
prised the army. They were an i'm
corrigible, irregular, noisy set of ras-
calls. They were much sworn at dur
ing their four years of service; yet
they We're at all times a pet brigade.
There were but two things they would
do-march and fight; and this they
did in a manner peculiarly their own.
They had a long, slow, swinging
stride on the march which distanced
everything which followed them. They
had quiet, attentive, earnest indi-
vidual way of fighting that made
JHeIl IeTflHC III DdINles Edcu luuu
knew that his neighbor in the ranks
was not going TO run away, and he
knew, also, that he himself intended
to stay where he was. Accordingly.
none of the attention of the line was
diverted from the important duties
of loading and firing, rapidly and
carefully. When moving and when
hotly engaged they made queer jokes
and enjoyed them greatly. They
crowed like cocks, they ba-a-ed like
sheep, they neighed like horses,
they beloved like bulls, they barked
like dogs, and they ycounterfeited with
excellent effect the indescribable mu-
sic of the mule. When, perchance,
they held picket line in the forest, it
seemed as if Noah's ark had gone TO
pieces there. When the Nermonters
led the column on a march, their
quick movements had 10 be regula-
ted from corps or division headquar-
ters, to avoid gaps in the column as
it followed them. If IA rapid or forced
march was required, it was n com
mon thing for Sedgwick to say, with
a quiet smile: Put the Nermonters
at the head of the column to-day and
keep everything well closed up.-Ben
Perley Poor in Boston Budget.

Vacation Notes.

A sleeping carl What search for
the berth in one already engaged and
paid for was held that night. l had
full confidence that Col. Cummings
had reserved one but, as he was not
on board, many fears that some other
person "instigated thereunto by &c. y
had feloniously appropriated tito his
own "use and benefit" and lett me,
as we're many others to standing
chance" in the ordinary passenger
car. However after much hunting
for the man in charge the berth was
found and a good nights sleep was
enjoyed.
Who can describe the "reminiscences
of "first night" on sleeper? the
feeling "now I'll go to sleep" and one
eve closes but the other obstinately
refuses to shut, or if it does for an in
slant, bang, goes the train over a
rickety switch and you are wide awake
and wondering if it was a collision or
you ran off an open switch and if the
car will take fire or not and what
sort of a time your friends will have
indentifying the remains and by that
time you are wide awake; again you
compose yourseltand determine " this
time | will sleep" only to have your
other eye opened, and your ears shut
by the roar and shrek of passing
train, so it goes on with variations
until you give upin despair and aban-
don the idea of sleep entirely when be-
f,po Won nra a Nva rp pf IL Won Drp Ilt-
terly oblivious of everything until
you awake to find the sun well up in
the heavens and q Son ofHam who
is the factotum of the car saying
"bout time to get up sah." No per
son has but a single first night but
the miseries of that one will always
remain in memory.
"Arrive at Niagara for breakfast
was the programme but heavy, and
consequently late trains made the
prospect of any seasonably breakfast
a vain one and so whenever a stop
was made skirmishing Immediately
commenced for supplies but withvery
Indifferent success and so, when near
meridian, we arrived within sound OF
the mighty diapason of the cataract
the first thought was of the vacant
place in the "internal economy" and
not until after with much tribulation
that was filed did we set out that
Sunday afternoon to worship as tru.
ly, with the thunderous tones of the
great river for music, as in the accus
toned "temples made with hands,

ADVERTISING RATES.

To most the first view of the fnlls
from above is unsatisfactory, you ac.
knowledge that il is grand, that the
leap of the clear green river over the
edge down TO the rocks below is mag
nificent, but well, after all il does not
quite fiji the bill as the imagination
had pictured il.
This feeling vanishes at once when
after decending to the rocks below
and standing as near as you can un-
der the fall, you look up.
The pouring, dashing river with It's
ponderous blow which makes the sol
id rocks quiver and almost takes
away your breath, the effort Of the
eye TO look up and up to the edge
over which the mighty volume Of
water leaps, the sunlight shining
through the spray and being refec-
ted back with all the tints ofthe rain
bow makes such an impression as the
eye that has seen and the ear that
has heard it may never forget.
We find the long afternoon all TO
short for the different views below
the Falls, the walk TO Goat Island
with its views not only of the terrible
rapids which seem hungry for their
victims but also of pleasanter scenes
on the shore and further up the river
was a current more smooth but still
deceitful in its strength, the various
paths on the island and the views of
the Canadian or Horse Shoe falls. All
the while the mighty power of the
hurrying rapids and the leapingroar-
ing fall grows on you till your brain
fairly reels in the endeavor to COM
prehend it and you think the effort
being made to tunnel under it to OBJ
tain power from its waters is almost
sacreligious.
But if we speak of the majesty and
glory of nature displayed what shall
we say of the meanness of men who,
wherever the State has not laid its
strong hand on thesurroundings and
make them a public reservation,
would shut in this great wonder and
make it a means of exhorbitant
gain.
New York has done nobly but
should go little further and clear
out the vampires who invest the
whirlpool Rapids below the bridges.
With tired bodies and minds filed
with the wonders we have seen we go
back to the car and this night we do
sleep finely and awake TO find our
selves hurrying across the "Domin-
ion" many of whose citizens mourn
the death of Sir John A. Macdonald
the greatest man America has ever
seen" as an enthusiastica admirer said
in our hearing. For hours we ride
along the lake and river and note it's
wonderful light green color so unlike
any Others we have ever seen untilwe
arrive opposite Detroit and crossing
the Railroad Ferry are again in the
land of Old Glory"
Bidding adieu to our sleeper and
not forgetting the sable attendant
who has done so much for our com
fort we board the first street car for
our hotel and are soon lost in won
dering if there is any bunting or any
other decorating material left after
what Detroit has used i'm her welcome
to the Grand Army Of the Republic
at its Silver Anniversary.
