Vermont Election.

Our democratic friends will probably
once more remark that 1.-The Dutch have
taken Holland" But what would they
not give just to get a commanding foot
hold in that Holland? 1t is so far recog-
nized, however, to be impossible, that one
of their organs, Il few days before the
Vermont election, claimed that if the I'm
ion men failed to get their usual majorities.
it would be equivalent to q democratic
victory. But the republicans of the
Green Mountain State seem even to have
disregarded this humble announcement that
the smallest favors would be thankfully
received. In spite of the inevitable fall
ing off of the aggregate vote, they have
actually increased their relative majorities.
In some places they have reduced the dem
Ocratic vote to very scattering" as
poet, and in Others they have wiped it out
altogether And thus it is that Vermont
puts her foot upon the doctrines of those
who deny the claims of equal rights, pal
late rebellion, and tender treacherous
support to the government of the country.
Such Astounding, invariable devotion to
right principles may become monotonous,
but never should cease to have honor. 1t
is well enough to hail with rejoicing the
occasional accession of the doubtful
states" to the side of the right, but we
render our heartiest tribute TO the state
that never goes wrong.-BOSton Journal.

The NetU "ArtsIOcrdcN.O

Ever since our democratic friends blum
dered at Chicago by declaring that ''the
war was failure" and were so hand
somely whipped on that platform, they
have been casting around for a new rec
ord. We do not pretend to follow their
various shifting changes of policy, but on
" to notice the last. Wherever demo-
cratic convention meets We are sure TO
have a speech about the bond aristocrats,
and a demand that government securities
shall submit to the tax imposed upon
state and local corporations. The poor
people are told that the national loan Is
an exclusive privilege conferred by the
government upon lis supporters, and that
the possessor of bonds is an aristocrat-an
enemy of the people, free from the taxa
ton that Expresses the poor man. and al

months bad not passed before those who
shouted Yea. Yea" were just as loudly
shouting Nay. Nay"
There are three points to be observed
in reply to all this:
|. Congress has no more right under
the constitution TO allow the states 10 t.,
national securities than If has to allow
them to tax gold or silver coin, or legal
tender, OF government ships and cannon.
The government has the right to levy war
and raise money without consulting loca
legislatures. To deny them this righ
would he to make the legislature of an,
state or the corporation of any city superb

For The CaledOnian
Centennial Celebration.

Mr.. EDITOR Yesterday some two
thousand or more of the sons and daugh-
tiers of this beautiful town gathered around
the old homestead to celebrate the hun
dreth anniversary of its settlement. The
present citizens of the town had prepared
for the occasion in the most ample and
most appropriate manner. About midway
Of the main street, they had suspended a
national flag bearing the inscription,
"l765-wELCoME HoME-lS65.'
On the common" they had pitched q
spacious tent under which they had spread
richly loaded tables capable Of seating
nearly 1900 guests. Well nigh 1000 per-
sons partook Of the ample collation., and
much more than ''twelye baskets full
were removed.
A year before Kew Joel Mann of New
Haven, Conn, son of the first settler of
Oxford, had been engaged to prepare a
commemoration address. He had taken
great pains to collect all needful Informal
ton, and had skillfully combined and AZ
ranged the richly bound incidents of his
torical interest. His address was a model
of classic elegance, and it is very much to
be regretted, that being delivered in
the open air, only a small part of the
large concourse could hear the speaker
voice. 1t will be printed, however, and
read with intense interest by multitudes
In the course of the address, certain i'm
portant facts were brought out with refer
ence to Dartmouth College. Strenuous
efforts were made to have that Institution
located in Oxford The town voted to
give the College one thousand acres of
land, and also to give another thousand
acres with tl0O in money to President
Wheelock. Mr.. John Mann, the first
settler offered to give four acres of land.
most beautifully situated, as site for the
buildings. 1t is difficult to explain why
these generous offers were not accepted.
The orator made special mention of
Capt Samuel Morey, citizen of Oxford
in the early part of the present century,
and brought very convincing proof that he
was really entitled to the honor of invent
ing the steamboat Capt. Morey and a
brother of the speaker made one of the
first trial trips ever made with "a boat
propelled by steam. They made it on the
river opposite this village, one Sabbath
afternoon, while the people were in meet
ING, taking that time to avoid notice. and
established the fact that boat could be
made to move up the stream. Space for
bids my going on with other interesting
points in the address.
Gen. Gilman lNlarston of Exeter, son
Of Oxford, was President of the day, and
Major F. Edgill, late of the \. ii. bat
terry, chief marshal. At the table James
Richardson, Esq, Of Boston, read an ap-
propriate poem in response to a ''senti-
ment - and interesting remarks were made
by Timothy Dewey, Esq, Rev. b. NJ
T'ilotson of Manchester, Rev. Charles
Dana of Port Gibson, Miss, A. Is. Pal
mer, Esq, of Oxford and several Other
gentlemen, natives or former residents OF
the town. On the whole the day proved
one of interest; and every one seemed
to feel that the centennial celebration was
a perfect success. z.

The .StdRStedd Homicide.

Respecting the bloody fight al Stan
stead of which mention WAS made in our
last paper. the Sherhrooke Gazette has
the following particulars and sensible IT
marks:
Levi Peavy. one of the Holland par
ty. had his bowels ripped up from The
lower part of the belly to the breast bone.
and the intestines cut in no less than live
places, and let out upon the grasS y
man named Barnes, OF the same party. re-
ceived stab over the heart, and was cut
up to the shoulder. A brother of Barnes
was cut several gasheS in the hip. Taplin
Worth was badly bruised in the stomach
and head, and vomited blood. A man
named Hartley, was hit in the face with
stones, and badly bruised, and two Others.
Morrill, Gray and his son, were slightly
injured. Two physicians We're procured
as soon as possible, and Peavy's bowels
carefully sewed up, but there is little hope
of his recovery The others. although
two Of them are badly wounded. will prob
ably recover. We are assured that this
bloody affair is principally due to The in
fuence of liquor, which is openly. in viola
ton of law, sold in more than forty places
within five miles OF Stanstead Plain. The
good people of Stanstead as well As Sher-
brooke and other places, have heavy re-
sponsibility in this liquor business. The
traffic in intoxicating liquor will bear Its
legitimate fruit-quarreling. fighting and
murder. While the rum-Seller Is. in many
instances, perhaps as guilty Is his victims,
those who quietly look on and do nothing
to stop the evil, must share in the blame. -
