A Revolutionary Party.

State Democratic Conventions have re-
Gently been held in Connecticut, Ohio and
New Hampshire, and the Democratic pur-
poses for the coming political campaign
may reasonably be supposed to have been
now fairly announced. The speeches
made and the resolutions offered at each
of these Conventions show that the Dem
ocratic party places strong hope in the
probability of a revolution in the country.
Their warmth in offering their support to
the President; their earnestness in talk
ing about a war (which shall be general
and internecine, and whose great theatre
shall be at the North" and the vehemence
with which Congress and the Republican
party are denounced for presuming to
think differently from the President upon
national political questions show that their
wis lie aim and purpose is to endeavor to
secure party success by civil revolution.
The very men who denounced the war of
the rebellion as an unholy and oppressive
crusade of the North against the South,
and who were only deferred from joining
the rebel army and fighting for JEFF. Davis
and slavery by the fear OF final defea, and
dishonor-these are the men who are now
pledging the President their armed assist
ance and earnestly endeavoring TO induce
him to defy the power of Congress, set
himself up as the interpreter and admin
istrator of the laws and Constitution and
rely upon the Democratic party for sup
port and victory. This is the plain inter-
probation of the leading uiterances of
these recent Conventions, and those that
are TO follow will undoubtedly reiterate
those utierances and enlarge upon the
texts that have already been given by
such Democratic leaders and expounders
as Pendleton of Ohio, Seymour and Eat
on of Connecticut, and Burke of New
Hampshire. .-..
The Democrotic lead RS would gladly
undo all that was accomplished by the
war and place the control Of the country
in the hands of those who have been
openly or -covertly hostile to all that has
been done in the last five years 10 make
our Government republican in fact as well
as in name. They are impatient for the
party support of all the ex-rebels, and
their eagerness for votes is so great that

A Peculiar Case.

Twenty year ago, John Webb, an Eng
lshman, came from London and settled in
Victory. He brought with him consid-
cradle amount of gold, purchased piece
of land, and became impressed with the
idea that Victory was eventually to be the
London of the new continent. He lived
sparingly, seldom mixing with the people,
and inclined to hermit life. In course of
time his box of gold grew lighter, and he
kept curtailing his expenses and making
himself more secluded. He would never
get trusted fearing that some one might
get lien on his land and he be deprived
of the marvellous profits when the new
London should spring into existence, and
create demand for city lots. He has sons
in London who are wealthy, and have fire.
quently sent him money to pay his passage
home but he has never ceased TO enter
tain his favorite notion of rising city
growing up in Victory, and has never in
clined TO return home. A few years ago
he erected a small house, finished up the
cellar, where he fixed up bunk of straw
and rags, on which he has spent most Of
his time for several years. The neighbors
have kept watch of him to some extent,
but generally let him enjoy life according
to his own notion. The town has once OF
twice attempted to take charge of his prop
erty with the intention of receiving him
as pauper. and securing for him com.
Portable subsistence. But he has always
opposed such overtures, and has succeeded
i'll keeping master of himself and his prop
erty. Last Friday he went TO Mr.. Ingra-
hams and complained of feeling utwell
Mr.. lngraham gave him some assistance
went TO his home and fixed his stovepipe
and arranged his room, and left him ap-
pearing about as we'll as usual Saturday
morning the neighbors observed smoke in
his chimney, showing that he was up a.
usual. AT noon neighbor went into hi:
room and he was stretched out in the mid
die of the floor corpse. He died, as is
supposed, from the effects of breach. II
is thought that he strained himself in some
way, and fell over dead.
Since writing the above we have re.
ceiyed letter from LOOMS Wells, CRANKY
who held an inquest over the body. II
seems Webb was in the act of saving some
wood, when, to all appearances, the saw
horse broke and let him fall, which wa:
probably the immediate cause of his death

KILLED BY CRITICISM An item has
recently gone the rounds of the papers
giving an account Of one Blair, who, TAX
ing exception to the acting at a theatre.
drew pistol and discharged it at the
actors. 1t is also stated that the manager
mildly suggested that if critics show their
displeasure in this way, it would be i'm
possible to proceed with the play. The
critic in this instance did not cause death.
but there is story on record of an actor
named Edwin who died from the effects
of criticism. A witty satire appeared in
which he was severely handled. He
dropped under it from the moment be read
it, as though pierced mortally by ball
from a pistol, and died shortly after. He
was buried in ST. Werburgh's churchyard,
and his wife caused to be inscribed on his
monument that his death was occasioned
by the acuteness of his sensibility. Be-
fore he was Sufficiently known to the pub
lie of this city to have his talents properly
appreciated he experienced an illiberal
and cruel attack on his professional repu-
tation from an anonymous assassin" We
think there is no other monument in the
world which records death from such a
cause.

The Attorneys Sustained.


Mr.. EDIroR:-Ia looking over your
paper Of January Alb, | was surprised to
find in the1teport of the meeting of the
We-tmins,er Farmers Club Of December
Path, such erroneous statements in regard
TO the Attorneys. Prejudice goes further
with large class of farmers, than reason
OF. common sense, and i fear soma of that
class we're present at that meeting.

THE FISHING SEASON OF l867.-The
Gloucester Advertiser says the coming
fishing season bids fair to exceed any that
have preceded it. Several vessels are al
ready pursuing the Western Bank fishery,
and by the first of February til re will be
quite large fleet iii readiness for
Georges. During the past year the fleet
of vessels has been largely augmented,
some sixty-two new schooners having been
added, increasing the number from Glou-
cester to about four hundred and fifty sail.
Forty-fve vessels are now engaged in the
herring business, and by the first of March
there will be about three hundred sail
pursuing the Georges and Western Bank
fishery, giving employment to nearly three
thousand men.

A RAILROAD FIGHT.-The lease under
which the Troy and Boston railroad COM
pany have been operating the Western
Vermont railroad, from Rutland to Ben
nington, having expired Thursday, the
trustees Of the latter road promptly sued
the former lesees for not surrendering the
road in the condition required by the con-
tract, and also for the recovery Of $780,
600 rents due. On one side II is claimed
that the road is not worth so much by two
hundred thousand dollars as when leased,
and on the other it is claimed to be worth
one hundred thousand more.
To expedite settlement, they attached
all the properly of the Troy and Boston
corporation in Vermont, consisting of sew
en- engines and 60 freight cars, with
large amount Of wood and machinery, and
at North Bennington the sheriff turned
the switch wrong and ran the train from
Rutland for Troy off the track, in order
to gain possession. A ggng of the Troy
and Boston employees drove off the sheriff
and his attachment, and took the train
over the line, into the State Of New York.
The Try and Boston railroad have given
notice hat they shall run their trains out
10 Hoosic Falls, N. Y. and for the present
the mails will be carried from that place
by horses to Bennington, FIVE miles, and

they would regard Tarty, victory as
cheaply purchased If it should be gained
by forcible revolution of the Govern
ment. The Democratic Interpretation OF
the opposition of Congress and the Re-
publican party to the reconstruction pur-
poses of the President is Consolidated
Despotism," and it is to break down this
I" despotism" that they urge the President
on in his course and promise him the sup
port of themselves and their whole party
constituency.
Whether or not the President will be
induced, by the advice and promises OF his
Democratic supporters, TO place himself
in open opposition to the dominant senti-
ment of the country the future only will
determine. 1t is difficult to suppose, how.
ever, that man who, few years ago,
was in professed sympathy with the Re-
publican party and gladly received their
suffi ages for the second executive office
in the country, can be persuaded now TO
attempt 10 revolutionize the Government
for the sake of gratifying the party that
could find no language strong enough to
express their contempt for him until with
in few months past. For Andrew john
son as loyal Southerner the Democrats
had no word of sympathy or encourage
ment.. They did not urge him to stand
fast against the powers of rebellion and
promise to give him their active support
in taking such course, and it is only his
recreancy to the party which elected him
that turns Democratic support towards
him now. When man places himself in
opposition to all progress, when he turns
backward rather than forward, when he
strives to block the wheels of Republican
Liberty, and when he seeks 10 destroy the
effectiveness of the results brought about
by great political epochs-in short when
a man--be he President or not-places
himself upon platform of negatives and
spends his time and strength in pulling
down and destroying what other men have
built up, he will find himself in close SYM
pathy with the Democratic party 1t has
come to this in the position of political
parties, that the Democratic party only
aims at opposition to TIE Republican party
and its principles. 1t has become party
of negative ideas and purposes, and at
neither of the State Conventions to which
we have alluded was there word said in
favor of any progressive movement that
would render more complete and effective
the great work of the war On the other
hand, the Republicans were denounced for
their opposition 10 slavery before the war,
for their destruction of slavery by the
war and for their endeayors TO secure i'm
partial legislation and privileges for white
and black men alike in all parts of the re-
public .-Boston Journal.
