OF The Democracy of Goshen township,
Hardin county, where they have generally
had majority of from eight to twelve, on
Monday, April z, elected their ticket by a
majority OF from seventy eight to eighty six.
AS a correspondent says, this large increase
in one township is encouraging to Union
men of all sections OF this once happy, but
now distracted country.

A Hopeful Sign.

The recent municipal and town elections
in several OF the States present the most
gratifying evidence Of the triumph of Demo
cratic principles. We have right to regard
the Democratic successes in those elections
as indications of the returning confidence oI
the people in Democratic policy and Demo
cratic administration. The second sober

HOME CORRESPONDENCE.
Mechanicsville, November IL, 1862

Mechanicsville, November IL, 1862
Editor Rutland Herald: have just wit
messed one of the most horrible scenes that i'm
agnation can conceive.
An old man by the name of John Fuller, of
eccentric habits, owned and lived alone on a
small out of the way farm in the extreme south
part of Mt. Holly. Last Sunday morning Mr..
Fuller's horse was found hitched under one of
the neighbsrs sheds, and his wagon standing
outside loaded with various articles. The neigh
bors supposed that MIR. Fuller was moving
some one had forgotten something, had re-
turned on foot, and was detained by the snow
storm. Monday, Mr.. Fuller not returning for
his horse, two of the neighbors started in
search of him, his house being nearly 2 miles
roads drifted and untracked, and all quiet
about the premises, and the house locked on
the outside. After some delay, they broke
the fastenings of the door and entered, finding
the old man lying beside the stove, covered up
with bed quilt. Surprising that he had died
from natural causes, they made no examina-
ton, but fastened to inform his relatives, who
lived at quite distance. Late in the after
noon they returned, and, on removing the
quilt, they found that the old man had been
horribly murdered.
About o'clock in the evening an idiotic
fellow, about 10 years DID, made his appear
ance in Mechanicsville with the horse, saying
that he was Mr.. Fuller's son, and wanted the
horse put up for the night. On being ques-
toned by others, he told his name and said
that the horse and things were given him by
Mr.. Fuller; but, on being further questioned,
he made the following confession, which is
written out in his own words:
My name is Loyal Mores have lived in
York State, and in Poultney and Rutland =
have been living in Reading this summer was
looking for a place to work old man referring
to Mr. Fuller) called me in have lived with
him most week; worked drawing and chop
ing wood and foddering cattle; slept with the
old man every night; built fire every morning;
last Saturday morning got up and built the
fire; old man got up and put on my trousers;
said he would swap with me; put on old
old mans and went and MIXED; got back; old
man got breakfast; we ate breakfast; old man
did uot eat much; old man lay down on the
floor forward of the stove; said he wasin great

pain and wished somebody would knock him
in the head, and went to sleep; | then went
out doors and got the short iron bar that stood
leaning on the banking OF the house; went IN
the door around the stove behind old man and
struck him on the head three blows; he walked
up the first blow; threw up both hands and
/ made noise; meant to strike HIM rd
/ enough to make him give me back my trows-
ers; old mon cheated me like the devil; after
/ he laid still pulled my trousers of from hlm
and put his on him; then washed the dirt of
the legs of nine, and dried them by the stove;
then put bed quilt over the old man; then
picked up my clothes, put some pork in a
small barrel and some -four in bag and a lew
potatoes in barrel and some wool or rolls
tied up in a cloth; took old mans hat, coat,
lamp, plates razor, all the bread, butter and
cheese there was in the house, and put them in
pail, and then united the key Of the house
from the button of the vest the old man had
on; carried all the things out and put them in
the wagon; then locked the door, got the horse
and started for Rutland; it was Just dark;
drove TO the big white house; unhitched the
horse; left the wagon out doors by the barn;
led the horse under shed; went and got him
some hay; then went into another barn and
slept till morning; heard somebody in the house
when got up; then went to my fathers,
Frank Mores; staid there all day Sunday and
till most night, Monday; then l went and
hitched the horse to the wagon and started to
see my sisters, living in Mechanicsville; horse
was tired in the snow; left the wagon in the
road one half mile back.
Mores made the above statement about IL
O'Clock Monday night, when he was immedi-
diately put under arrest by f. Parmenter,
Esq, who was then having jury of inquest
summoned to meet early the following morn
ing, AT an early hour the jury met and pro
ceeded to their duty. On arriving at the
house a scene so horrible presented itself that
it passes description. The old gentleman was
lying on the floor with his head literally cut
to pieces; the blood spattered on the walls 10
feet distant from the body; five or six contu-
sions of the skull having been made with
heavy iron bar, either one sufficient to cause
death. The jury found a verdict in accord
ance with the above facts, and the body was re-
moved to Weston for interment. On the per-
son of Mores was found 5000, and in the
wagon were found all the movable effects of
the deceased, irrespective of value. Mores APP
pears Indifferent, not realizing that he has
done anything wrong. He will be sent to
Rutland jail tomorrow.
Yours, in haste

SHINPLASTERs seem TO be a necessity of the
times. They cannot be done away with so
long as silNv, is non est business cannot pro-
coed without them, and hence the issue, par
donable under the circumstances, of the many
varieties of small, rather uncurrent currency
now perplexing us. But to avoid general
balloon experience by and by of all this unbal-
lasted lot Of shinplasters-a going up out
of sight--some regulations and restrictions
must be at once provided, regarding the man
utacture and issue of this species of what is,
by courtesy, called "change." This is duty
of the present Legislature. If we must have
fractional parts of dollar represented by pa
per, let our banks issue them in sufficient
quantities to supply the wants of the people,
and let all other parties be prohibited, by suf-
6cienlly stringent legislation, from so doing
Personal checks, no matter how responsible
the individuals issuing them may be, can only
be used at best in the locality where they orig
mate, and person with his pocket full of
them finds himself, elsewhere, without money
and consequently without friends. Great in
convenience is already experienced daily by
travellers, from this source; and yet it is but
one of the many evils attending the present in
discriminate, unlimited and rapidly increasing
storm of these articles, wh Oh threatens to over
whelmn us. If we are not mistaken, there is
a bill now before the Legislature expressly au-
thorizng banks to issue bills for fractional
parts of a dollar. Let it by all means be at
tended with prohibition to other parties from
issuing them, with such penalties as shall &C
complsh the object.

Mn. SEWARD AND THE BUCHANAN AID
MINIsrRATIoN.-The enemies of Secretary
Seward are trying TO make out that he gave
advice to Mr.. Buchanan during the latter por-
ton of his presidency, If he had done so the
advice would doubtless have been good, but
he did not Charles Francis Adams is re-
ported to have said, just at the close of the
Buchanan administration, 81 am going to tell
you secret. Gov. Seward has been preSi-
dent of the United States for the last six
weeks" What basis of truth there was in
this remark Thurlow Weed explains as fol-
lows in the Albany Evening Journal
"The remark of Mr.. Adams was based up
in his knowledge of tae facts that the loyal
communication with Mr., Seward during
the period referred to. With the then attor-
ney general 1.-THE present secretary of war;,
Mr.. Stanton, Gov. Seward had, through a
friend, daily communication, thoughtheir first
personal interview was after the 4th of March,
on which occasion we met Mr.. Stanton at
Gov. Stewards dinner table. 1t was through
the influence Of Messrs. Holt and Stanton that
the treasury department was rescued from Sc
cession hands and given to Gen. Dix. But for
timely suggestions by Gov. Seward, large
amount of gold would have been transferred
from New York to NewOrleans; and but for the
fidelity of Messrs Holt, Stanton and DIX, the
capital would have been betrayed into the
hands of traitors on the Sd of March, and
Breckenridge proclaimed provisional presi-
dent, 1t is dde to Mr. Buchanan--if the con-
cession be of any value to hm-to say that in
all these reasonable designs, he was an instrn-
ment rather than an agent. Though not him
self a traitor, he sat in the presidential chair
with FOOLS cap drawn over his eyes"

The U. 3. ssnatOrship from Pennsylva-
mia.

Gan eminent correspondent from neigh
boring county, sends us the following commu-
nication, which we take pleasure in insert
ing at his request.)
Among the prominent candidates for the U
S. Senatorship from Pennsylvania, to be filled
this fall, is the Hon. JOHN HICKMAN. His
unqueshonable integrity of character, his long
and familiar acquaintance with the covert
Vaccinations of the slave-party leaders, and
his progressive sentiments in the questions of
the day, admirably qualify him for the posi-
ton in the Senate, and the more so since his
efforts to place the policy of the Government
on the high grounds of morality and justice,
are in full accordance with the true character
Of that august and highly conservative body.
There is no safety to us as a nation but in
universal justice to all men; and there is no
other standard to which all men of all parties
can submit with SO much ease, satisfaction and
dignity. With Mr.. Hickman as her new
Senator, the voice of Pennsylvania would be
Enthusiastically for honesty, morality and justice
elements which have been too long estrang-
ed from our national politics.
