The Vermont 4 Iection-Its indications and
Influence,

One of the most interesting and important State
elections which has taken place, during the
present summer, is that which was held on
Tuesday of this week in Vermont. During the
hast two days, through the agency of the magnetic
telegraph, we have received returns to a consider
able extent, from both ends of that State. Those
returns present state of facts, the political
questions, which have recently agtated the coun-
try, that will have startling importance on the
Presidential election and thus far certainly give
greater encouragement and higher hopes to the
ultimate success of General Taylor, against all
other Presidential candidates, than any movement
We have yet seen. In fact, judging from the results
Of this election in Vermont, General Tayor's
cause begins TO revive, against all the open opposi-
ton Of his enemies, or the insdous faint praises
OF his friends, including Daniel Webster, Thurlow
Weed, and all the other discontinued wings of the
North Let us explain.
Since the beginning of the free soil movement.
under the auspices OF Mr.. Van Buren, IL Co., and
the extension of the agitation beyond the limits
of New York, there has been no election, except
this recent in Vermont, whereby an indie
pendent mind could Judge how far the free soil
movement would affect the standing ana organ-
cation of the two psrtles-the old wings and the
old democrats. In this election In Vermont, we
have returns indicating the character of the free
soil movement and by tthose returns, we are
very much surprised to find that this new move
ment-this free soil movement this novel apglta-
ton, commencing with the barnburners of this
State, and carried on under the auspices of Mr.
Van Buren-that this movement in New ENGLAND
will only affect the organization of the old demo-
cratic party and that it embarrasses the wings not
only not at all, but rather increases their strength
Judging from what has taken place. As far as we
have ascertained from the returns from Vermont.
we find that, in comparison with the election of
last year. the wings have rather increased IN their
aggregate vote, while the free soil party have alb
sorbed the old abotionsts, with a considerable
portion OF the democrats, without affecting the
wings one iota
This Is the first lnmaton we have had of the
peculiar direction which the free soil movement
might take IN the Northern States. Il Is highly
important and interesting In the present state of
the Presidential canvass. Judging from this re-
suit in Vermont, it is fair TO presume that like re-
suits will take place in other New England States
when their several elections will commence The
election In Name will take place next week, and
then we Thall be enabled to form a more conf.
dent opinion of the character OF this move
ment during the next few months Al all
events, as far as heard from, il is highly probable
mat the wing party throughout the New England
States, in spite Of the cold and cowardlv pos;t;on
assumed by Mr. Webster IN hs recep, spsecb--;n

This is really contemplate If the Star does
not know, it ought to know, that the city of New
York never was more healthy than it is at present
The yellow fever, to be sure, prevails to slight
extent on Staten Island; but the city is perfectly
free from it, and cannot possibly reach us, SO per-
fect and judicous are the arrangements that have
been taken to prevent it. Merchants from the
country can, usual, come here, without mourning
the slightest risk of the fever The city was never
healthier.
