The Election.

The annual freemen's meeting held in
Rutland yesterday was unusually quiet
and orderly, and resulted in most
decided and glorious victory for the
entire Republican ticket, and notwitk-
standing the herculean Efforts put forth
by Democrats and disaffected Republi-
cans, in which no stone was left un-
turned to bring their combined forces to
bear against US, the result is one which
sends thrill of gladness to the heart Of
every honest Republican in the COM
muity, ond one in which we may all
rejoice.
The contest for Town Representative
was the warmest, as it always is here,
and though coaxing, appeals to sym
patty, and intimidation were re-
sorted to by our opponents, Col
REDFIELD PROCTOR, the regular Repub.
lican nominee, was triumphantly elected

on the first ballot. The vote stood as

At the announcement of this result,
loud and repeated cheers for the success
full candidate went up from many
hundred Republican threats, and amid
repeated calls, the Colonel took the
stand and made the following brief and
appropriate speech:
"Fsllow Citizens Il thank you for the
honor conferred upon me, and fully ap-
preciate the Importance of the position
to which / have been elected to repre-
sent the most important and richest
town in the State,-and will do all in my
power to promote her interests. Again
thanking you for the honor conferred
upon me, | will no longer consume your
time, and will retire, feeling it out of
place at this time to indulge in lengthy
speeches"
The vote on the State ticket, though
lighter than last year, gives John B.
Page, for Governor, majority OF 81, or
IS greater than Dillingham's majority Of
last year, fact which is in itself conclu-
sive that the lying roorbacks launched
forth against him by the copperhead
Courier have had little effect upon the
votes of his tOwnsmen, and result
which must CRATE hard on the ears of the
party who procured five hundred Repub.
lican State ballots, with the name Of
John W. Stewart inscribed upon it for
Governor, and who, by misrepresenta-
ton, succeeded in inducing four voters,
aside from himself, to vote hes ticket.
The vote on the respective tickets to.

the woods, a few hundred yards from the
house to. gather sticks ior the fire to cook
dinner. They were little boy of nine
years ofage, another of.seven, and little
sister Of five. They had with them some
small cords or strings plated from The raw
elings Of old eunny sacks. The elder boy
lit seems, had become, by some means pos-
sessed Of a mania on the subject Of hang
ing and often spoke Is metimes in jesling
way, and at other times apparently in earn

had no idea that he seriously .meditated
any any thing Of the kind, or won d attempt
to carry il into effect.
While out in the woods on this occasion
he took his smaller brother to bush not

had not sufficient spring to strangle the
little fellow, and only choked him to a
slight extent. The elder brother then nm
tied him and took him to stump which
had projecting limb. and tried 10 hang
him to it, but the cord was not long enough
to tie around the limb, and he abandone
this attempt, asa a

and being strangled almost instantly Ivy the

The brother and sister ran to the house
and gave the alarm, but when assistance ar
