RUTLAND HERALD.
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER "a, 1866.


Any enumeration of the cause OF the
late grand result in Illinois and other
Northwestern States, which failed to
take into account the services of our pa
trio.ic citizens of foreign birth, would
be M nifestly imperfect. The Germans,
Swedes, Norweeians, &C., have very gen.
orally voted with US heretofore; but,
through some strange faulty, much the
larger proportion of Irishmen, while as
piring for freedom in their native land,
have voted with the party of slavery in
the United States. The course of Presi-
dent johnson, and the Endorsement by
the Democracy of his acts toward the
Fenians, have had the effect of opening
the eyes of large numbers of this class /;
and on the 9th inst. thousands of them,
signalized their emancipation from bo-
gus Democracy, and their devotion to
true freedom, by voting with and work
ing zealously for the Republican party,
and much Of the splendor of that tri-
to their patriotic votes and abors. We
believe many of this class OF citizens,
who were once relied upon as the very
rank and file of Copperhead Democracy,
have now dissolved their connection
with that party finally and forever, and
that the more patriotic and intelligent
will hereafter be found laboring in the
ranks OF the Republican party-the
party of freedom and progress.
This is but as it should be. The Irish
men, one and all, ask for the relief of
Ireland from British thraldom, and can
they consCientiously deny TO the OPP
pressed Of any nation, of whatever race,
color or creed, the freedom which they
ask for the down-trodden masses in the
green isle Of their nativity ? They have
too long worked for the interests of and
voted with the party in this country
which alone seeks to establish slavery
and protect the mighty in compelling
involuntary servitude from the weaker
classes. Now that they have broken the
ice and opened their eyes to the light of
freedom in this as well as in their native
land, we trust that they will henceforth
be found exercising their right of suf-
frage in favor Of the party which carries
at it's masthead the broad banner of
equal rights to ALL"

BOUNTY DHcIsroN.-At a recent con.
ference between the second Comptroller
and second Auditor of the War Depart
ment in relation to bounty in cases of
colored troops, it was decided that proof
of freedom on the 10Th of April, 1851,
should be no longer required, but full
effect given to the law of Congress APP
approved June Is, 1866, and the soldier
accorded the benefit of the presumption
if the contrary did not appear upon the
muster rolls, and the bounty allowed, if
otherwise entitled. The second Audi
tor has decided that where discharged
colofed soldiers have applied or may
hereafter apply to his Office for any ar
rearages of pay not paid on final dis
charge, or for any bounty provided by
the act of-July %, 1861, he will also al
low in the settlement of such claims the
additional bounty provided by the act of
July %, 1868, If such bounty shall be
found due.

flames quickly spread to block o. olo
