VERMONT ELECTION.

WENtt0p the prefS 10 lay before our readers
sl:e evens of the late election in this fate-By a
gentleman tfoa-S. a,snd, we learn, that Cover
nor Ticbenor is eieefcd by a majority of 500,
and that Paul Brigham, the republican candi-
date for It. Governor, is elected by a very large
and iucreafed majority--the liz of Councillors
are unanimously republican, and obtained their
election by about 5000 Observation-Disclosures
Swan, Trcafurer--Amos Iceland, Speaker pro
sem.--Anthony Hafyell, Clerk pro tenn. and
our informant adds, that there is larger major
ty of republicans in the homie, than there was
lat year.
Repubicanifn in Vermont may be flid to be
iacreahng faft--hy recurring to the election lat
year, we find that MIR. Tichenor was elected by
olsS majority and the lowell candidate on the
republican lift of councillors, was carried BY s7s.
This year they have three thoufand, majority,
which makes an increafed number of s4e2 votes,
and that of Governor, of CSC. BY the above
fatcment we may fee that the Republicans are
2422 ltronger than they were the laR year.-Not
a doubt remains that the Electors of PRECEDENT
and Vice PRECEDENT, from this State, will be un-
aninoufly Republican.
Had the Republicans ofthis fate been as well
united to obtain Governor, as they have to OBJ
tain their lift of Councillors, we ihould tis year
have had head flited to our political BODY /;
but we hope that the watering Republicans in
this fate, who are acting with the Frderaiifts,
viii foon fee their erro-, and that by the next
election, if they can not confcientiouly vote fer
the Republican candidate, they will rather
chooie not to vote at all, than to have it thrown
INTO the federal fcae, TO weigh as one aglinn

Mr.. Dagger afked leave to lay in a Bill for
e
bank bills other than thofc ilIuing from the
banks of this fate, lefs than five dollars.
He remarked, that the evils ariing from the
circulation Of fna bills were fach in his or,in-
on, AS required legislative interference. In
Maiiacbufetts no bills are allowed to be iGued
or pailed lefs than FIVE dollars. The fame is the
cafe in the fate of Vermont. In the Rate of
New-York, none are ifued lefs than five dollars,
except by the Manhattan Company, who, be-.
lieye have not ilIued them fnaller than three
dollars. It is quito obvious that the circulation
OF thett Gmll bills being prohibited in the neigh
bouring fates, there will be great influx of
them into this, particularly from Rhode-Illnd
