A vail Of plucksd pig ICONS comes up from
the Granite State. A gold mine operator has
carried through succ ,ssfully in Vermont right
in the centre OF Yankeedom, one Of the boldest
and yet most transparent schemes in the annals
of swindling. He announced last year to tho
worthy burghers Of Bennington the astounding
discovery Of q gold and silver mine on farm
in Rensselaer, county, New York. In order to
prove his veracity some learned professors,
chemists and capitalists accompanied him to
this farm and made analyses of specimens he
kindly pointed out to them. A company was
duly organized, with the clever confidence
man as treasurer, and three hundred and fifty
thousand dollars worth Of stock was dis
posed Of, the money, Of course, finding its way
into the treasurer's pocket An assessment
amounting to thirty-fve thousand dollars more
was obtained by him in order to "expsriment
further before opening the mines" and then this
accomplished operator retired perm men ~
from the scene Of his exploits. His receipt
for making q gold mine consisted simply In
scattering . cart load OF quartz and gold
on the most convenient rocky formation.
There have been many petroleum and gold
mine swindles perpetrated In this country
before, but this last is one Of the bQldeat
and most successful Of the kind ever known.
Filling well with few gallons Of petroleum
and scattering gold dust on the water or sand
OF stream are no more transparent or better
known lodges than this last operation in gold
and silver mining The success Of the enter
prising speculator is On evidence that while
there are pigeons to BE- plueksd there will be
always found professional artists ready to per-
form the operation.

The Santa Camnaixn.

The radicals have filed the vacancy on Their
Congressman 9. T. Hulburd by nominating the
present Incumbent, General Hillhouse, for the
Office OF COMPTROLLER. and we are informed that
General Hillhouse has accepted the nomination.
Both parties, therefore, have their full tickets in
the field, and both are waking up to something
like energy ia the campaign. The radicals
opened the ball in this city the night before
last with the Colfax meeting, and the address
OF the Speaker Of the House of Representatives,
branding every democrat as srebel. shows that
the struggle is to be one Of great personal bit
terness and vindictivcness. The State Commit
tees on both sides are busily at work, AMI while
the radicals are making the greatest noise the
democrats are probably effscting the most in
the way Of quiet and steady organization.
If the same influences prevail in New York
as controlled the cleo lions that have already
been held, we may predict the defeat Of the
radical ticket by fifteen or twenty thousand
majority. This will be the natural result of the
policy Of negro supremacy enunciated by the
radical Congress and Of the arbitrary Excise
and Sunday laws enacted by radical State Leg
islaiures. But at tho same time the approach
ing State election will have but little influence
upon The future policy Of the State. It is looked
upon simply as struggle between two decay
ing organizations for handful of uniiLportant
Offices, and whatever may be the result 1t will
not interfere with the great popular movement
that will be surely made next year in favor
of General Grant for President, outside
Of all existing party cliques and factions. II
the radicals are beaten in November,
as they most probably will be, their defeat will
he owing 70 the absurd and arbitrary legisla-
ton of their party during their few years Of
power. If tie democratic candidates should
DO elected it viii be no proof Of the disposi-
ton Of the people to trans or the government
to the hands Of the old copperhead democracy.
Whatever may BIO the term .nation Of the No
vember contest the movement in favor OF Gen.
eral Grant for the next Presidency VII sweep
asile both victors and vanquished, and will
consign all the old political combinations to
III, tomb. Their labors now will only serve to
prolong their existence for . singh, year, and
then they will b, left to resolve themselves
into their original elements and to take part

The speech Of schuyler Coifax.

People will naturally look into the speech OF
Mr.. Schuyler Colfax, delivered at the Cooper
Institute, to find an exposition, or an effort at
one, Of the purposes AMI policy Of ths repub-
lican party. But they will look in lin. They
will find the man who holds, at the git OF
his party, the third Office in the government,
dealing exclusively with the past in pretsn-
could be neither reason nor excuse, il it was
not expected II might tell us things we did
not previously know. Mr.. Colfax hints that
Congress will disapprove Of the removal Of
Mr.. Stanton, but aside from that one vague
glimpse Of future purpose his Grafton Is the
thousandtold repetition Of expressions of party
bitterness, pique, pride and hate. Denuncia-
ton Of Mr.. johnson is tho great staple of the
Speaker Of the House of representatives, as
it has been for two or three years OF every
triton OF the minnows in republican politics
Mr. johnson becams President by the act OF
Booth Mr. Johnson scorned Congress; Mr..
johnson pardoned rebels; Mr.. Johnson re-
moved Sheridan and Sickles, and so on. with
infinite iteration. Is there nothing newer than
this in the republican brains Is there not in
the republican party genius enough even to
give the old story new shape, or TO put its
point with some fresh forcsf Once, indeed, it
seems as if Mr.. Colf,x would drop
rhetoric and argue. He goes over the poinis
of the constitutional amendm ,nt-that basis of
reconstruction that was satisfactory to the
people. lie finds that this failed because it
was rejected and repndiated by the Sou bern
States, and that thus his party was forced to
new plan. Here he just argues long enough
to show that, high as he has arisen in his ritz,
he does not understand the simplest elements
of reconstruction. What had the reputation
Of ihs Southern States to do with il? If you
heed their reputation you admit their vitality
as Safes yet on the vcry heels Of tina. admis-
sion Law is nude that denies their vitality. 1t
is time that Mr. Colfax and his party learned
thas reconstruction is not a matter to be deter
mined betwe N the republican pirty and the
Southern people, but between that plrty and
the Northern people. The North is the re |
power, and the North is satisfied with the amend
ment and will not 60 beyond 1t; and it is in
vain for any parry to pretend tlat that am nd
ment was overslaughed because the South did
not lik, it When did the republicans become
so con siderato OF Southern Taste? The amend
ment was laid aside because republic ms them
selves saw tina! it did not give them power

DEFINITELY. Mr. Collax touches lightly the plans
