Disunion,

There is no State in the Union so thoroughly
and reliably Republican as Vermont. There is
no State in the Union so thoroughly and per-
versely Sham Democratic as South Carolina
But has Vermont ever swerved hairs breadth
either in speech or in act from her fidelity to tho
Union of the United States? Has Vermont
ever nullifed? But what is the record of
Democratic South Carolina? Let it speak for
itself, in its most recent and most Democratic
shape:
DlsUNIoN PROPOSED BY SOUTH CAROLINA.
Columbia, S. c., Nov. 80 The following
resolutions were offered in the House to-day
" Resolved, That the State of South Carolina
is ready to enter, together with the other slave
holding Stairs, or such as may desire present
action, into the formation of Southern Con-
lederacy.
Resolred, That the Governor be requested to
forward this resolution to the various Southern
Executives.
Another resolution was offered asking official
information as to the condition of the State
Arsenals, arms, ammunition, number of men
enrolled in the State militia, style of arms, etc.
The Governor of South Carolina, in his mes
sage, showing the advantages of united South,
says: " H.. as solemnly believe, we can no
longer live in peace and harmony tn the Union,
we can form confederacy with ability to pro-
tect itself against any enemy, and which will
command the respect and admiration of the
world
| lie then recommends such measures as will
obtain the cooperation of the Southern States
in concerted action in defense of the institutions,
whenever they may be put in jeopardy by all
the departments of the government passing into
the hands of their enemies. The election of a
Republican President he says, will settle the
question of their safety in the Union.
If such proposition had been introduced
into the Legislature Of Vermont just adjourn
ed, it would have been greeted with howl of
indignation by every Democratic paper North
and South. We have been charged with being
the disunion party and how is it that we never
made more head in South Carolina Will
some good National Democratic paper like the
Bellows Falls Argus explain how in the world
it happens that South Carolina is always Dem
ocratc and always for dissolution of the
Union. We need light on this subject.

a pipe

Blown by surmises jeaousies, conjectures
And of so easy and SO plain stop
That the blunt monster, with amounted heads,
The still discordant, warning multitude,
Did play upon it.
The chivalry began to tremble. d" Every blast
that swept from the North brought to their ears
the cl .sh of resounding arms" The descendants
of Washington, and Lee and Henry, and Jefer-
son and Randolph, shook in their shoes The
heavens were full Of portents. The Aurora
Borealis shooting up to the zenith its fiery
tongues of light, to their afrighted imagina-
tions was the reflection OF blazing hay stacks,
and burning negro huts The flaming meteors
that streamed madly across the sky, were to
them the bombs and shells, and signals of an in
vading army. The wind signing through the
desolate reaches of their barren pine forests, fell
on their ears like the tread of an advancing
army. poor devil couldn't even whistle to
! keep his own courage up, but the chivalry
looked to see it answered like the signal note Of
Roderick Dhu, whose

STATES YET TO ELECT-PROBABIIIrIR TIES.

From these figures it would seem that the Re-
publcans, though by far the strongest party in the
House, could not organize it, This, however we
think, will not prove to be the case. Of the Anti
Lecompton Democrats, several owe their election
to Republican support, accorded to them because
of their devotion TO principle in the great struggle
of 1873; and we may be sure that these gentle
men will not allow any faotious resistance to the
election of Republican Speaker to prolong the
labor of organizing the House. We judge, also,
that the Southern Opposition will prove much
more reasonable than that in the XXXIVth Con-
eress, when mainly by its efforts the election occu
pied several weeks.
Another interesting consideration is the decision
of the House, should the next Presidential election
be brought before it. As Kansas will probably be
admitted next Winter, there will then be thirty
four States, which will probably stand as follows:

The total vote Of the State is several thousands

the canvass:
"Mr. Magoffin is to enter upon the discharge of his

He will be a most courteous, high minded, and. We
have no doubt faithful and impartial Chief Magistrate

from Bmkville, Cumberland county, Kentucky, that
the report is true that an of thirteen votes has

Democrat has majority OF ten over Anderson lOp-
positon). The Fraakfort Yoemdn, in commenting
upon the letter, says:
