usive. On the 26th of August, the Adjutant-General wrote to Mr. Seward, Secretary of State, that he had reliable information, that five schooners had arrived at Halifax, N. S.,–having run the blockade in North Carolina,—and had landed fourteen hundred barrels of turpentine. They were loading again with merchandise, intending to run the blockade on their return home. The names of the vessels were given, and two of them were captured on their return voyage. The following telegram, dated Sept. 3, we copy from the Governor's files: Senator Wilson to Mr. Seward,—Is your consul at Halifax thoroughly loyal? Four vessels from North Carolina have recently arrived there, loaded with naval stores, and are now loading with contraband goods. Same day, Governor writes to General Lander, Will you please look out for the welfare of Captain Sanders's company of sharpshooters, which will this day march almost from under the shadow of your own roof-tree, in the county of Essex?

The meeting was held; but no intimation of what was discussed, or what was done, appears upon the Executive files. In the latter part of August, the scene of active war was changed from before Richmond, to the army under General Pope, before Washington. The losses in the Union army were very great. The Secretary of War telegraphed the Governor to send forward additional surgeons to take charge of the sick and wounded. Surgeon-

On Aug. 1, the regiment returned to its camp at Baton Rouge, having left it seventy-four days previous, in light marching order. Aug. 9.—The Forty-eighth started for Boston via Cairo, where it arrived Aug. 23, and was mustered out of service Sept. 3, at Camp Lander. The Forty-ninth Regiment was in the Department of the Gulf. It left New York Jan. 24, 1863, by transport for New Orleans, where it arrived about Feb. 3. From thence it was sent to Carrollton, and then to Baton Rouge, wherends in the field, surmounting obstacles, overcoming prejudice which at times seemed almost insurmountable, borne down with cares and labor of nearly three years of incessant war, the political elements of the State remained active. On the 3d of September, the Democratic party held a State convention at Worcester, to which were invited not only delegates of the Democratic party, but those from other citizens disposed to co-operate with them. The convention was very large, and opposition to t
