THE RUTLAND HERALD
THURSDAY. OCTOBER, 10. lsts,
The Late Elections,

Again we have met the enemy and they
are ours; the key note struck by Yer
mont on the first Tuesday Of September
to the tune of $4,000, has been nobly re-
sponded To by Maine with her $4,000
majority, with immense gains in Connect
icut, and yesterday the hearts Of all loyal
men throughout the country, and lovers
Of freedom throughout the world, were
made glad with the glorious news that
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Nebraska
had declared in favor Of Grant, liberty
and peace.
The result Of these elections virtually
decides the Presidential contest in No
yember j, seals the fate Of Seymour
democracy, and shows TO the world that
the same spirit which animated the loyal
masses Of the country through the rebel
lion, still lives in the hearts of the people.
Our opponents, banded together by
despair Of forgiveness and the universal
de,estation Of all mankind" have made
the most desperate and superhuman
efforts and exertions in Pennsylvania and
Indiana they have, by bribing the clerks
of the various courts in these States,
issued and distributed their naturalization
papers with reckless audacity which
puts the most hardened and vile TO the
blush; they imported from the purlieus of
New York and Baltimore $4,000 roughs,
bullieS and blatklegs to overawe the
loyal people of Philadelphia, and stuff the
ballot boxes with spurious and illegal
votes.
But there is a Providence which "shapes
our ends, rough hew them as we will,
the frauds, the cheating and the vile
threats Of the friends of Mr.. Seymour
have been all in vain, and have availcd
them nothing; the loyal people of Penn
.ylyania remember that the same mer
Nhe now support Horatio Seymour wer,
dressed in gray uniforms on the 2d, 81
and lth Of July, 1863, and were shooting
lown their sons and brothers on tn,
bloody field of Gettysburgh.
Victory Is now certain, and Gen. Gran
is the coming man" and the Republi
clu party who carried the country safel,
through the war, Is hereafter TO max
the laws for the country it has saved, ant
protect the people whose liberties it la
preserved.

HoUSE-AFTERNOOS

On Thursday the House adopted a
resolution to hold only morning sessions,
therefore we have no report. The Senate
hold two sessions daily and the action of
the House is likely to embarrass tho SEN

the progress of legislation and exrend the
session if the House persist in holding
