FRIDAY MORNING SEPTEMBER >. 1864.

The danger that menaces the loyal North
to-day, i not more that of defeat upon the
field of battle than of defeat al home. Infu-
ences which work insidiously to relax patri-
otic effort and to yitiate patriotic sentiment,
have at no time been more active though Sc
cret in their operations than now The les
son taught Us by the election Governor Sey-
m1ur of New York. should not be forgotten

who has done much to hinder our cause and
give comfort to our enemis. The loyal men
Of that State. learned too late that they had
heen mapping, and that their enemies had
gained by misrepresentation, by presenting
a false issue, what they could not regain by
direct and manly conflict IL Is safe to as
sume that no effort, no misrepresentation IN
reference to the approaching elections, will
nOc be spared by our enemies. Ii should be
remembered in dealing with them, that they
are not ordinary political enemies, but that
many OF them will be of those who have
sought the nations life. Those who adopt
the policy Of traitors, do not scruple in the
means they employ. 1t is not as in years
past political contest simply or mainly,
that is to be decided by ireemen' votes. The
ballot. not less truly than the bullet or the
bayonet, will tell for or against the perpetu-
ity of our Republican institutions.

1t gives employment to politicians to have
a target to shoot at. Since Abraham Lin
coin was nominated for reelection there has
been such target and the political archers
of disunion sentiments have tried their skill
They propose to furnish another target at
Chicago, and then it will be game not lin
tied to a single class of politicians. The fol-
lowing from the Montpelier Freeman is the
statement of truth, the benefits of which
will now soon be realized
The Democrats have been committed to no
platform, plan, or leader, but have carried on a
sort Of irresponsible guerrilla warfare upon ev-
cry weak and assailable point in the conduct Of
the war, the management of the finances, or the
general policy OF the Administration and the
President. That they have been, at some points,
successful in these attacks. and received encour-
agement by finding, in unexpected quarters,
sympathy and support. is not strange, nor a
thing at which they should feel eated, or the
Union party discouraged. We have seen the
severest days of our trial during this PRESIDENT

themes being well chosen, well written and
well spoken, all savoring more or less Of the
spirit Of the times.
The graduating class was addressed by DR..
Bourne President of the University.
The honorary degree Of Doctor of Divini-
-ty was conferred on Rev. Josiah SWEET, Beth
el, Vt. and that of Doctor of Laws on Fred
eric W. Shelton, Montpelier, Vt.
In the afternoon an Grafton was delivered
before the Board of Trustees by Rev. DR..
Huntington of Boston. His subject was
True Independence. The church was
filed to its utmost capacity, and crowds
stood outside the doors and windows
Park Benjamin delivered one of his raey
and humorous poems on the war and the
present times.
\ battalion and skirmish drill ended the
public performances Of the day.

tons the following incident of the battle on
the Weldon Road on Friday last
CAPTAIN NeWberry, who commanded the 18th
[. S Infantry, was captured and known at the
time 10 be unhurt. On our men recovering the
ground which had been lost, and where he had
! been captured, he was found mortally wounded,
/ having been shot through the body. He says
I that rebel officer, on finding that they were
( being driven back, took loaded musket from
private and deliberately shot him. He lived
I long enough to be taken TO the hospital, where
he shortly died No words can sufficiently ex-
press the Indignation every one must feel at such
cowardly shooting of such brave and capable
! officer.
Lieut.. Burnett, of the 18th, informs us
that Capt. Newberry was a talented and cul-
tivated man, and gallant and capable SOL
der, who would undoubtedly have won high
distinction, had his life been spared. Ills
