Editor Rutland Herald - Our State
election has passed off finely as usual
we had just the thirteen Of the unterri-
fed" democracy, and probably shall have
till the grim messenger shall send his
summons for one of them. They are
useful in their way to remind us of our
duty.
After the election was over we held
an adjourned town meeting to hear a
report from our selectmen in relation to
the filing Of our quota for the last call of
the President.
They reported we had filed the quota
and all mustered into the service (ffteen)
at a cost of trife over nine thousand
dollars after which, a resolution was
introduced and passed, to raise a tax suf-
fcient to meet the expense, and have it
collected and paid into the Treasury on
or before the LIST of November next. We
have had a real social gathering and the
best feeling prevailed. Great credit is
due our selectmen and Mr.. George Hop
kins for their energetic efforts in pro
curing our men. w.

ELECTORAL CoLLEGR.--The relative
strength of the states in the electoral
college has been considerably changed
since the last presidential election, by
the decennial re-apportionment. Maine
had votes in 1860, and in 1864 will
have but Z. Massachusetts also loses
one, falling from 10 to II votes: New
York drops from 80 to SO ; Pennsylvania
loses one. Alabama, Arkansas, Florida,
Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Texas, Ten
nessee and Virginia will not be heard of
in the electoral college. The vote of
California, will be increased from to

1860, will now have 8 Wisconsin will
have votes instead of 5 Michigan in

Row AMONG THE GOLD SPEoULAToRs.-
The New York Commercial Of Thursday

Row AMONG THE GOLD SPECTATORS
The New York Commercial Of Thursday
says:
"Gold shows strong tendency to re-
cover the recent decline. The fall
created strong short interest, and
the purchases to cover the short con-
tracts have forced up the price. Many
of the Gold Room operators are unable
to fill their engagements, and instead OF
falling are repudiating. Very large
amounts have been lost during the last
two days by this process.
"The commercial honor of the Gold
Room has been sadly Inundated yester,
day and to-day by the ignoring of con-
tracts. The method Of settling disputes
among the operators is to submit the
case of the disputants to a vote of the
room. That method of arbitration prov
ing unsatisfactory, a final resort tt
blows is taken; of which method Of set
Element an interesting exhibition oc
Cured at the room this morning. L
this state OF things be allowed, the Colo
Room will become mere resort of low
gamblers"

THE QuIRKs OF THE SoLpIERs-The
habits of a rough and perilous life tend
often to sharpen the wits of those en-
gagged in it. Our returning soldiers
give evidence of this in many ways
Last evening, for instance, we had two
exhibitions of the quirks by soldiers
each moved by different impulses. One
corporal, very drunk, was leaning
against a telegraph pole on Third street.
and when accosted pleasantly by pc
destrian, was desired to "pass on
"Pass on" replied the inebriated corpo-
raj, "and don't disturb the court martial
We are trying drunken corporal, and
find him guilty Of disgracing his uni
form. So pass on, citizen, while l re-
duce the corporal to the ranks" The
corporal suited the action to the word
by tearing the stripes from his own
sleeves.-Ha,risbury Telegraph.

THE CATHEDRAL AT BURLINGroS.-The
Times says that the marble used in the
new Cathedral at Burlington comes
from the quarries of Dassey & Sheldon,
West Rutland, who, by giving it at a
reduced price, contributed $3.50 toward
the columns. The columns cost about
5000 each, and are offered by eleven
priests of the Diocese of Burlington.
They were brought over the railroad
from West Rutland free of charge, and
were cut at the shop Of J. K. Manley.
Thus far we are gratified to see in this
building how rich our state is in build
ing materials. We have in the cathe-
dral the pink and brown stones Of Bur
lington, the grey limestone of Isle La
Mott, the red and green slate of Rutland
County, and the white striped marble of
West Rutland.

A TRUE STORY-RoMANTIC ENOUGH -
Not many months ago there arrived at
confederate port, upon one Of the most
notable of our blockade runners, very
unassuming woman-scarce such, in
deed, for she was hardly out Of her teens
of extremely handsome person. She
had come to Nassau from Paris, and
sailed thence for the South. She brought
with her an abundant wardrobe, and
suficiency of means to last her two or
three years, at the present high rates Of
living Her object in visiting this
country was to discover the fate of an
only brother, Colonel in our service,
who had placed her at Geneva, at
school, when the war began. She had
not heard from him during six months,
became anxious, and finally set out on
her long and perillous journey. Her
anxiety proved to be well founded. Her
brother had been killed at Gettysburg
and she found herself alone and stran-
ger in her native land. She went first
to Augusta, then to Mobile; here she
lost trunk, containing all her gold.
At this critical juncture of affairs, she
met a very handsome field officer-fell
in love-engaged first in Irritation, then
In an amom,-and accompanied him as
far as Atlanta, oR his way to the front.
He fell at ChickamaHga. What her life
became you can guess. She died last
week, and was tumbled into the ground
in the public cemetery. There's story
for you-weep over it.-Mobae Register.
Rutland weekly herald. [volume] (Rutland, Vt.) 1859-1877, 1864-09-15
ATLAsrA.-What the rebel papers said

ATLAETA.-What the rebel papers said
about Atlanta before its capture by
Sherman is now very instructive and
satisfying reading. The Columbus (Ga.)
Times said the loss of Atlanta would be
more damaging to the confederate cause
than the loss of Richmond. "To lose
the one would be as the loss of limb
should we be driven from the other 1t
would be terrible blow at our most vi
tai point. This we must admit, and our
enemies know it," The Montgomery
(Ala.) Advertiser said about fortnight
ago:
Sherman has evidently reached the
end of his row. He is now where he is
unable to advance further, while to re-
treat will be utter destruction. His
thanking operations that proved so sue
cessful from Dalton to the Chattahoo-
chic river, are no longer available
| Hood has defeated his every attempt to
get around Atlanta, or take possession
| of that city. Sherman is now reduced
| to the alternatives of attacking our ar
my in its strong works of defense, or
commencing a retreat which we can
make nearly as disastrous as Napoleon's
i
retreat from Moscow"
So late as September LIST, after Gen.
| Sherman made his last and boldest flank
movement, the Richmond Dispatch took
the following cheerful view OF the stu
alton at Atlanta
"Tke occupation of the Montgomery
and West Point railroad by the Yankees
is no doubt felt as a serious inconyen-
fence by Gen. Hood. Yet we are dis.
posed to think the Importance of the
blow greatly over estimated, both by
our own people and by the Yanke s
themselves. So far from starving Hood
out and leading to the capture of At.
lanta, it will not even interrupt his
communication with Montgomery. Gen
J, Hood, in word, is still in communica
ton with all the country he was in com
munication with before this last move
ment of Sherman; and if it was intend
ed to cut him off from his supplies, i
q was failure. We rather think, howev
s er that it was desired to shut him up il
s Atlanta, or to open communication wit
> Mobile. He has completely exposed hi
' flank to Hood by this movement, an
, thereby, we suspect, rendered his ow
position very dangerous one. HOOD
we feel satisfied, will not allow him +
/; retain it many days undisturbed."

How THE CHICAGO MEMBERS TALKED.
Agate, the well-known correspondent
of the Cincinnati Gazette, in jOurneying
to Chicago with many members of the
Democratic Convention, was much i'm
pressed with their conversation. He
says:
"But the saddest thing in all this po-
litical talk, was the evident delight at
our military failures. do not write
the words willingly foT realizing pro-
foundly that this rebellion can be put
down by no party and by no effort that
stops short of embracing the People OF
the North, know how fully it is ad-
hitting that the end of these troubleous
times is not yet in sight. But there
could be no installing tho tone Of exul-
tation in which the invasion Of the
North and the siege Of the Capital, in
the fourth year of the war, were para.
ded, and Grants fianking operations
were laughed at, and the ability Of JEFF
Davis was exultautly eulogized."
