Too Bad !!

The rebel leaders are completely non plus
sed by the movements of Gen. Grant. When
they expect an attack in the front he tanks
them and they have to leave their strong
position and fall back to protect Richmond.
When the enemy attempts to turn his left he
orders an advance of the whole line, anu
they are easily repulsed. This rule of "mili-
tary contraries" don't suit the rebels, who
have formerly, by means of spies, and trait
ors, and incautious statements of our officers,
been posted upon every move to be made by
the Union forces in time to be prepared to
meet them. The Richmod Sentinel of th e
2lst ult. says:
1t is time for US all to cease speculations
as to Gen. Grants movements and attend to
the facts. He has been offering fight when
We thought he was retreating and retreatng
when we thought he was offering fight. He
has been advancing when he was whipped
and heading up stream when he had every
reason TO hurry down. He has gone by the
rule of military contraries and is always dis
appointing Us, whenever We supposed he was
acting sensibly or consistently with him
self
We suppose he has come to the final fight
at last, though, warned by experience, We
express the opinion with becoming doubt
Our lines are inlerposed between Grant and
Richmond and will stop all progress in this
direction. But SO far as we can learn Grants
left is not cut off from hanking toward the
White House.

The Baltim ore Union Convention.

We have not time or space this week to
give the proceedings at length OF this body
now in session at Baltimore. Tuesday even
a permanent organization was made, with
Hon. w. Denison of Ohio, as PRESIDENT
A vice president and secretary was chosen
from each state. Henry Stowell represents
this state as vice president and Horace Fair
banks as secretary. On Wednesday Presl-
dent Lincoln was nominated by reclamation.
There is considerable sparing and caucusing
in reference to the nominee for vice presl-
dent. New York and Pennsylvania do not
seem to be disposed to support Hamlln, but
at the same time cannot agree among them
selves upon any one man. Hamln OF Maine,
Andy Johnson of Tennessee and ID. 5. Dick
inson of New York are the prominent can
didates,

The agent at Waterford sold out Of the
state 1871 gallons. The agent of Barnet sold
out Of the state 81 gallons. There has been
sold out of the county 60! gallons. Burke

c nsumed in the county at cost OF about
1850 which is large amount 10 pay for

only for three-fourths Of the year, as Barne
has not vet sent in the return for the last
quarter of sales. The license Of the Walden
agent was revoked the first of March, since
which time no agent has been appointed
there. The agent of Newark SURRENDERED!
his license at the expiration Of the first quar-
ter, and Newark has no agent. There has
been considerable increase in the sales of
liquors in some Of the towns. Comparing
my report with Mr.. Cree's for the year end
ing May l, 1862. find the increase to be
mostly in the following towns: Barnet,
Burke Wheelock, Sheffield, Waterford, Wal
den. Hardwick and St. Johnsbury. In some
! Of the other towns the sales have decreased
! The amount sold as returned to NE is l73
gallons more than was reported in 1862 By
Judge Cree. find by examinin, the re-
turns for the second quarter that a large
amount of liquor was sold in that quarter,
over 1000 gallons. The increase was in al
cohol, brandy, Bourbon whiskey, wines,
and liquors that are used for medicinal pur-
poses.
But the undersigned is constrained to be-
lieve that large amount Of the liquors sold
has been used for purposes not contemplated
by the law. The above table for the year
will show how much has been sold by each
agent, also the amount Of money :hey have
received for the number of gallons sold.
have reported this that each town may see
what per cent. their liquor bill is On. their
grand list. The returs of the agents to me
show what has been sold within and without
their different towns. find that in most Of
the towns about the same amount has been
sold to go out with the exception of St.
Johnsbury which has sold out 2GO gallons
more than has been sold in and Burke about
100 gallons more sold out than in. | find
but few we'll organized Town Temperance
Societies in the county and some of those
have not held any meeting for long time.
The friends Of temperance should stir them
selves and do their duty or intemperance will
roll in upon US like mighty food. Let
them see to it that the acts passed by the
legislature last fall are repealed or our pro-
hibitory law will soon be repealed.

Newspapers.

The time for obtaining cheap reading
through the medium Of newspapers, may be
considered as past, unless movement is
speedily made by Congress or some other
power to lower the price OF paper. The
papers of the country have for the past year
been kept up at an actual loss in many in
stances, to the publishers, with the hope that
there would be q let up on high price of ma
terlal, but In this they have been bitterly dis
appointed, and unless change for the bet
ter is brought about, and that too, speedily,
papers must go up OR publishers will have to
come down. At the present high rates of
printing materials, coupled with the high
prices of provisions and articles of clnthng,
no publisher can long sustain himself un.
less he run up his prices, and the patrons of
the press, when they consider the matter in
It's true light, must see it, and rather than
permit their papers to die out, will be willing
to make one hand wash the other, by accept
ing OF an advance in the price of newspapers.
Everything else has advanced in price to
nearly double the former prices, and why we
ask, sh 1uid not the price of newspi psrs 90
up also? We can see no reason, and we
are led to believe that the fault lies at our
own uoor-as long as we consent to give
away our papers, the reader will be content
to receive them at that rate, but all the time
ne is ready to acknowledge that he can't see
how We can afford, in these times, to do it.
We can't afford it, and what is more We must
not-Benningtoa Banner.
True as gospel. The fault lies with the
newspaper publishers themselves. Just SO
long as we neglect to advance our prices to
correspond with the times, just that time we
shall lose money and be laughed at by the
other trades; for We believe newspaper pub
hshers are the only class of business men
who have not advanced their terms from %
to lou per cent. Brothers of the stick, quill
and scissors, how long shall these things be.

The WESTERN WHEAT CROP. The Gin.
cinatti Gazette, after comparing reports from
the leading wheat growing states in the
West, says:
On the whole we are of the conviction
that two-thirds Of crop of winter wheat
may he caiulated upon for at least ten central
and northwestern states. As to spring wheat
We think there will be greater Weld than
ever before, both On account Of a greater
breadth being sown and the favorable wea,h.
er tor rs growth. But however much there
may be, no one need hesitate about the de-
mand BENG sufficient to sustain good
prices.
Late accounts from the Idaho gold MINING
region are hot as glowing as formerly, and
without rev and large discoveries are made
soon hard times are predicted for some of
the thousands aOcking thither.

What the army has been doing the past
week will be learned by perusing Secretary
Stanton's officials" elsewhere published
They are reliable and show what has actually
been accomplished Hence we print them
in preference to the numerous dispatches
which We find in the daily papers. 1t is
useless to speculate on what the next move
will be. Gen. Grant keeps his own counsel,
and the newspaper correspondents with the
army know but little more about his con-
templated movements than people thousand
miles away. Their guesses and surmises are
of but little moment and not reliable.

The Gold Specs'

- .s 0p W. -sring Why gold continues
10 "a''"'' @hen everything looks so favora-
o'' ~ ultimate success in the field. We
Ind in the NJ York papers two reasons,
and there is less some truth in BOTH
Says the E2Ir..-:
"There is ciq in Wall and William
street. and elsewhere to run up gold to 200
expecting then to sell out at a large profit.
Some of the spectators have also made
large bets that gold will reach this price, and
are wiling to sacrifice a good deal to win
their bets, even though they lose money upon
the speculation for time. The souls of the
spectators mu.t be good deal harder than
the metal in which they deal, and they seem
to care but little what becomes of the coun-
try or its people SO that they profit by the
war"
Says the New York Herald:
"Wall street is, in measure, in the hands
of rebel sympathizers and direct rebel agents
who create a fictitious price for. the purpose
of showing the embarrassed condition OF at
fairs at the North, to dispirit our people and
| give comfort to the enemy and his agents.
There is nothing substantial in the way
these gentry carry or their proceedings ex-
! cept the success which attends them. A reb-
ell agent nominally buys or sells with another.
with whom he is in collision, at high rate,
neither of them having dollar with which
to operate; and this quotation is immedi-
ately blazoned abroad as the price of gold,
whereas there is really no gold at all repre-
scented in the transaction"
That Jeff. Davis has agents operating to
break down our finances has been proved by
intercepted correspondence. And in one
sense every Spectator in gold who operates
for rise is an agent of jeff. Davis. The
moral obliquity Of these gold spectators is
only equalled by their lack OF patriotism.
