GRAND UNION TRIUMPH
First Gun of the Fall Campaign.
UNION TICKET ELECTED BY 10000
MAJORITY.
AN ENTIRE UNION SENATE.
Scarcely Sham Democrat in the
House.

The election, Tuesday, in this State, has result
ed in grand and sweeping triumph of the
Union ticket, a triumph complete in every res
pect. Every exerton had been made by the
Peace Democracy to make their vote as large as
possible. Every passion, every prejudice, every
mean, COW ardly, and sordd motive, every selfish
and unpatriotic impulse had been appealed to by
Blue Light orators and writers throughout the
campaign. But in spite Of all these efforts OF
uuscrupulous politicians, Vermont has once again
uttered her voice clearly, with no uncertain
sound" for the Government, the Constitution, and
the Union, and has put under her feet the mis-
cradle sophistries, the cold-booded selfshness,
and the scarcely concealed sympathy with the
shareholders rebellion, which have given the
came infamous character to the Sham Democracy
in this State, which that fallen party has estab-
lshed for itself elsewhere. Vermont sends
greeting to her sister States, and gives her re-
newed pledge Of unfalterng devotion to the Con-
stitution and the Government made by the faith
ers.
We have rsturns-which we give elsewhere
from So towns, of which Sc send Union Repre-
sentatives. The Governor vote is given in 81
towns-footing for Smith 1926, Redfeld 3,O17 !;
majority for Smith 4,50S.
In these same towns, in 1860,-the last year
that party lines were drawn in the State-Fair-
banks, Republican, received 1878, to 1868 for
SAKE and Harvey, the Democratic candidates, at
that time Fairbanks majority 4,7lO-only 202
more than Smiths majority in the same towns
Fairbanks then had over 10000 majority, and
Smiths will fall little if any below that.
With 10000 majority for the Union State tick
ct, unanimous Union Senate aud the House
practically unanimous on the same side, we can
truly say that State leads off in the fall cleo
tons in gallant style. May God bless the old
Commonwealth of Vermont.

CREDITABLE TO MoNTPELIER.----We think
Montpelier can justly take pride in the vote she
gave Tuesday for the Union. The vote was as
follows
John G. Smith, 31S
T. p Redfeld, CT
The last time party lines were drawn in this
town,-in 1S60--the Democrats gave SAKE 40
votes The sham Democracy have now less than
half that number of followers, while the vote for
MIR. Smith was nearly as large as the largest ever
given in this town for Governor. This is pecu-
iarly gratifying to all loyallmen in Montpelier
record that we are not ashamed OF, and that our
children need not blush to read. Montpelier has
spoken by her vote for the Union, for the Govern
ment, and for Constitutional order and law, with
an emphasis that is unmistakable. II the whole
State has done as we'll, Mr.. Smith is elected Gov
ernor by majority larger than was ever given to
any candidate.
The vote for the rest of the State ticket. and
for the county ticket was about the anne as that
for Governor
The following Justices of the Peace were elect
ed by nearly unanimous vote:
J. A. Prentiss, ]. A. Page, J. T. Thurston.
Joseph Poland, Jacob Smith, w. w. Caldwell.
Luther Cross Chas. Reed o. H. Smith, ]. A.
