Windsor County Veterans.

The annual reunion Of the veterans
Of Windsor county will be held in
Woodstock, Aug. 18th. Indications
are that this will be one Of the largest
gatherings in several years, and the
committee are making arrangements
to receive comrades with old-time
hospitality. Bills will soon be issued
giving more particulars. In the mean
time perhaps.wewho did not 60 to the
war Or have been born since, could
give little material aid toward the
expenses.
These gatherings are source OF
great pleasure to the old soldiers. Let
lis have them feel, when they depart,
that Woodstock is the best place in
the county to attend a reunion.
1t is expected that the Woman's
Relief Corps of the county will also
hold reunion at the same time, and
we understand that Randall Relief
Corps is making arrangements for all
who may come. Vermont Standard.

roa state Boundaries.

The boundary line commissioners OF
M three states, Massachusetts,, New
Hampshire and Vermont, were IN
South Vernon last week making
final arrangements for marking the
boundaries definitely between. the
states. The commission was estao.
lished by the states some years ago ana
considerable time has been spent In
surveying and discussing localities.
The lines are practically agreed up
on now, and monuments are BENG
erected along the line between Massa-
chusetts and New Hampshire. The
cornering point OF the three states mas
been fixed on the west bank OF the
Connecticut river Just at about low
water mark. A monument Of rubDie
masonry will be put deep in the SOL,
reaching to the surface, then a proper
" inscribed marker OF granite is to
be erected little distance away, re-
ferring to the actual corner. =,
About 60 monume nts are to be
erected between Verm ont and Massa'
chusetts at different points to the New
York line. The line as defined be-
Vermont and Massachusetts, runs
through the ladies' room OF the sta.
ton there. The ments will al
be in place in few months and tht
commissioners will be discharged
They have been very careful and pains
taking and all questions have beer
settled very satisfactorily.

Saw About 1t.

ssThe Cannoneer" Has Something to
Say About 1t.
In the National Tribune Of June ~,
Comrade w. E. Webster OF Cowan's
LIST New York Independent battery
Joins issue with Comrade Lutz as to
the comparative services and sacrifices
of the Iron Brigade and the Vermont
Brigade. AS a general rule, ! do not
think such comparisons valuable in the
historical sense because one brigade
may be situated so as to gain particu-
lar credit in battle where another
brigade similarly placed would have
done Just as well.
In battle, as in other human affairs,
opportunity is everything. For ex-
ample, the rescue Of Meningitis bat
terry at Cedar Greek by the Vermont
Brigade-or rather by two regiments
of It, the 5th and 9Th Vermont, under
command of Col. Amasa Tracy-has
never been excelled in the annals OF
bravery. The battery front was about
100 feet Within that space, when we
came to bury the dead, we found 10
corpses with no bullet marks; all Killed
by the cold steel! Some rebels, some
| Vermonters-l do not recollect how
many each-and three OF Meningitis
artillerymen.
AT this time, 30 years after the war,
| presume it will be impossible to de-
pict to the average reader what that
sort of fighting means to men engaged
in it.
1t is entirely different from stand
! ing off at distance and exchanging
yollevs of musketry or file-iring.
On that occasion the Vermonters
simply walked into the captured bat
terry and pitchforked the enemy out
| OF it right and left, just as they would
| have pitched hay out OF winrows Oh
their native farms. They did not ever
seem to be excited. One Of them drove
his bayonet by fierce thrust through
the mouth and neck of his rebel ad
versary, and the impetus of the move
ment brought both TO the ground. Th'
yermonter rose instantly, and, find
ing that his bayonet stuck in the cord
I of The dead rebels neck.he deliberate
" put his large foot on the latter
4 forehead and twisted the bayonet out
This vermonter, by the way, wa
one of those people who. immediatel,
: prior to the war, the Southern orator
said s'wouldn't fight" or at least tina
: one Southern man could whip five 0
them! | wonder what that poor rebe
of the sth South Carolina though
: about Yancey's theory when he fel
: that Vermonter's bayonet in his tcetl
How easy it is for demagogues !
/, make people forget history. tn
, Southern people should have remen
bered that the New England Yankee
} who s.wouldn't fight" were descend
ants of the men who stood by ial
!. Jones in the Richard, by Stalk
I Bennington, and so on!
/, don't think they will ever max
: the same mistake again.
S Now, having said this much abo.
4 the verInonters, | will add that II
t Iron Brigade never had just such a
t opportunity as the one ! have just IL
4 scribed. If such an opportunity ma
c been offered TO the Iron Brigade q
S result would have been the same

I VERMONT SOLDIERS MEDAL.
Pound in the Field Where McCleiisn's
Army Camped in 1862.

The Washington Post prints the foi-
lowing: "A gold medal was found on
the farm of Dir. Gustavus brown'
Dickinson's Station, Md, recently,
which would seem to have been ios'
while McClellan's army was en-
canned at the place in 1867. some
laborers engaged in digging poosthol,ess
nnearthed bright object about 70
inches below the surface, and on ex,
animation it was seen to be medal
about the size OF a l0-dollar gold piece
On one side is vignette OF Gen. NC
Clellan, encircled by the letters OF ms
name. On the reverse side, standing
plain and distinct, appears the name
Of "Franklin G. Publisher, 20. y
Twelfth Vermont Volunteers"
Cannon balls and other relics OF
battlefield are frequently found on the
Brown farm, and as there was light
inc at Dickinson's Station during the
war, it is not improbable that the
medal was lost in battle by the man
who had won it by some brave exploit
in another engagement, and that ne
himself fell on the spot where the
mark of honor has lain for more than
30 wears, but the finders are inclined
TO think that it was lost while the
army was in camp, local traditions
having it that the place where the
medal was found was within the limits
Of the camp, and that perhaps Frank,
lin G. Publisher still lives. The medal
is in possession OF Mr.. Jamison, super
lintendent of the farm. Dickinson

branches of the Baltimore and ONO
railroad, 80 miles from Washington
