print from Burlington correspondent
this morning, which shows that the rad
icals have misrepresented and manipu
lated the returns 10 that State tor politi'
cal effect. and to influence the remaining
State elections TO DO held in September
and October. In plain English, the 70
turns are by no means so favorable 10
Rsdicnlism as is claimed. The gains are
mot 40 great Instead Of the weeping
majority of 10000, or 29. 900. or rs, 900,
Il Is doubtful II the official returns will
show a Republican majority Of more
than $4,000 or $4,000 But meanwhile,
the frat impression made wherever the
false returns have been telegraphed, may
produce an effect, and thus reward tho
magnificent lying which has been Law
ished as so much Radical capital for the
campaign. The telegraph operators in
Vermont are Radicals; they have control
ofthe lines aud they have sent such dis
patches as they chose TO nix up" In
A ANAL State where the returns in full
could be given on the night Of election
day, they are still holding back the actual
vote of two or three towns, so as to use the
fictitious figures, instead of the real ones
the claimed majority Of 10000 or SO,
instead Of the true majority, which will
certainly show several thousand less.
Aud when the real returns show
that the largest lying has been
deliberately rssortel to, solely to linz
flaence the elections in other States, we
much mistake the temper and honesty OF
voters generally. If this deception does
not bring more disaster than gain 10 the
Radical cause. Meanwhile, We refer to
the facts clearly stated in our corre-
sponden,'s letter, showing that the
Democratic gains are immensely greater
than those of the Republicans
in this Radical stronghold.

Some of the Radicals have denied and
pretended to doubt whether Thad. Ste
vens and those who acted with him ever
did really admit that they were acting
outside the Constitution in passing their
reconstruction measures. The proof oil
the fact may be found ia the following
extract from the proceedings of the first
session of the Foriieth Congress, as re.
ported on page TAG of the Congressional
Globe, and in the correspondence, which
is also subjoined with it. Mr.. Stevens
said ft~r amaf
The President starts by asserting what,
if true, makes out all the rest of bis srPu-
ment leeitimately. He says that the
Constitution of the United States is theo

DEAR Sra: Several of your intelligent
constituents in this region, no doubt
from want OF proper Information. are
omplaining of mistakes made by Con-
gress in not passing laws at the late SEES

officers engaged in reconstruction. /

the very close providing for that very
contingency, but which is not executed.
Will you be so good as to inform me now,

this omission, if omission it be. You
know we are in the habit of dealing
familiarly with the member ofthe Ninth.
A brief answer will much ,oblige.
