RUTLAND, THURSDAY, SEPT. 5.
COL. WHITING ONCE MORE.
We have received a communication
from an esteemed correspondent, S. F."
expressing strong dissent to the tone and
spirit of our article headed " A Muddle,"
published Thursday. He assumes that
Col. Whiting, having lost the confidence
of his under officers and men, no matter
for what cause, ought not to retain the
command, and should voluntarily resign,
or his commission betaken from him
Our correspondent may be right in his .
position ; and yet we can conceive that if
the charge of cowardice brought against
Col. Whiting is false, as he claims it is, it
would be asking too much of him to vol
untarily resign, and thus virtually admit
the charge to be true. His own self-respect
would prompt him to repel the
charge, and that may be done by institut
ing the investigation provided tor in the
army regulations. The object of our arti
cle yesterday, was not o much to defend
Col. Whiting, as to protest against news-
paper clamor founded upon partial and in-
complete statements. Adhering to. our
, ii-i ... , I
resolve to let Col. , luting s case be d,s-
posed of by those charged with that duty,
we most respectfully decline to open our
columns to a further discussion, at least,
for the present.
The appointment of Surgeon of the
5th Regiment is well made. Dr. Russell
is a bona fide physician and n an 1
has "killed his man !" He has, moreo
ver, a comical way of looking on the dark
ide ot tilings ; tie enjoy- bad weather, oad !
health, bad eating, and .'.iscomfort of ev- j
ery kind so heartily that it will be a pleas- j
ure to the "boys" to have him around.

The Canadians are investing considerably
in United State- bonds so extensively
as to cause the Montreal Commercial Ad- j
vertiser to state that thereby the solvency j
of savings bank- i- likely to be conipro-,
mised. Tie banks have been obliged to
realize funds for withdrawal for such in
vestment at much disadvantage.

WASHING TON C O RRE S PON DE NCE.
Watiiisgtos Crrv,
August 27, 1SG1.
Editor IIkuald : Our national pros
pects begin to look quite encouraging. In
recent movements at 'head-quarters"
we discover evidence that the " powers
that be " have finally waked up to a com
prehensive idea of the magnitude of the
work before them.
The more than Itip-Van-Winkle slum
ber, which seemed to have possession of
our government authorities, has at last
passed away, and their waking eyes have
evidently discovered the fact tliat the
Union is really in danger, and that if it
is to be preserved in its integrity, they
. J , , . , .
that shall command respect at home and
abroad, and a vigor that shall insure suc
cess. The response to the late call for
more troops by the Secretary of War, is
so far quite satisfactory ,and has given new
life to every department of the army.
But the government needs more men and
must have them, so let them be enlisted
and forwarded at once.
Prompt measures are being taken to
cut oil ail intercourse with the rebel
Slates, and to suppress the circulation of
treasonable publications. The secession
papers of Baltimore, to save themselves
from suppression, have been compelled to
guarantee that they will publish no move'
liu'"ts "v m'w ,,f ,hu al in) ll ,u wullM '."
miv way be of advantage to the rebels it
(h(;m Th(; , W!st(.r (;,.n.
eral litis issued instructions to the Post
master of New York, not to allow the
News, Day Book. Freeman's .Journal,
Journal of Commerce and Brooklyn Ei
gle, to be circulated through the mails.
While this decisive action is taking place
in regard to dangerous publications, the
I government detectives are busily engaged
! in obtaining evidence of the guiity com
plicity w ith the rebels of traitors in our
midst, both male and female. The arrest
' of Mayor Berrett of this city a tew days
i since and his removal Ic-nce. nroduc -d
' i
much -eiisation among his sympathisers
in jt v.-;l expected by 'most of the loyal
citizens. It was not merely for the rea-
i son that he refused to take the oath ot
i loyalty as an ex-officio member of the
board of Police Commissioners recently
authorized by Congress, although this fact
may have hastened it. There are other
reasons, other evidence, good and stitli
cient to warrant his arre-t. Among the
it-male traitots who have been taken in
custody are Mrs. C recti how and Mrs.
Phillips, both well known in fashionable
circles. Thev, as well as other- ju-t ar-
I rested, are accused of giving aid .and com
! tort to the rebels. The Provost Marshal's
' docket is not yet .as full ol such cases a- it
' will be.
The employees of government have

of allegiance, u:
" I do solemnly swear that I will s.ip-
j port, protect, and detenu the constitution

whether domestic or foreign, and that I
will bear true faith, allegiance, and loyalty
to the -ame, any ordinance, resolution, or
law of any State Conv entiin or Legisla
ture to the contrary notwithstanding; and
further, that I do tins with a bill deterini-
nation, pledge, and purpose, without any

laid the following bit of intelligence, in a
late Richmond Examiner :
"The Confederate Congress deliberate.
with closed doors, and no well advised
person could wish their session fo be the
arena of oratorical gladiators and thespec-
tacle ol the populace. But general state-
ments of the temper and intentions of par-
liamentary bodies will, despite of every
caution, iind their way before the public,
J !
and generally contain more or less of truth.
h is"now currently believed, with much
distress by judicious men, that there is a
small minority of Congress disposed to
organize a standing opposition to the pres-
n 1 . . 1

Editor, of the IIkuald: There ap
peared in your isiue of the 25th inst., tin
irticle headed "Singular Aflair, with the
signature of N
Kinsgley, from New
to give an account of an
York, professing
ittempt at highway robbery in Mendon,
which is calculated! to deceive the public,
and does gross in justice to an honest, hard
working man. The facts in the case are
simply these, as now understood :
