VERMONT ELECTION.
Glorious Republican Victory!

The first scene in the Democratic pro-
gramme of "wiping out Republican ma
jorities" has been enacted in the Emer-
aid State. The returns received at
Montpelier the night of the Let inst,
indicated a Republican majority for
Governor of from twenty-seven to thirty
thousand. Three Republican Congress
men were elected by heavy majorities;
the State Senate was made unanimously
Republican, and the House nearly so.
The vote is the heaviest known in the
State since 1910. The Republican ma
iority for Governor of Vermont was orly
&C, 49, in 1867; this election showing a
Republican gain of from seven to ten
thousand. This splendid result comes
from the green hills Of noble Vermont
out of, above and in overwhelming ref
utation to the boasts of the Democracy
that they should carry that State, or,
at least make wonderful gains there.
This voice from the liberty loving Green
Mountain Boys but commences the re-
frain which shall grow in volume and
intensity as State after State joins in te
swell the harmonious chorus; the burden
of which will be, Grant and Colfax 70,
rulers, peace and prosperity for the
ruled.

receipts are probably correctly stated at
81 ,2S7 ,OOO,OOO. Now, find by reference
to official documents, that out Of this

suppressed. find, also, that out OF this
sum over $40, OOO, 600 has been paid for
back ply and bounties. and for trans
portation and prize money Of army and
navy, all Of which occurred during the
war, but was paid after July !. 1867
Now this fact is suppressed. | found,
also, that there was paid during the three
wears, for new bounties to soldiers, the
sum OF $40, 3s3 $50, aud to States for
claims for warexpcnses the sum SIT. $780,

destroyed during the war, $ll ,01.OoJ in

Democratic Fairness.

The following extract from speech
made by Senate: Sherman, at Hillsboio,
Ohio, shows q statement made by Hen
bricks of Indiana, to be what the COM
mon stock of Democratic stump speakers
is-dishonesty. Mr.. Sherman said:
And now that the war is over. does
this Democratic party take issue with Us
on any of the great questions of the flu
ture? Its platform OH finance is series
ofgeneralities or riddles. It has a green
back look with gray back candidate
Read that platform and tell me where
the Democratic party stands as to the
time and manner of resuming specie pay
ments? Where does it stand rs to the
funding of the public debt? How does
it stand on the National Banking system,
or the protection of domestic industry,
or the development of the West? 1t has
no policy, it has no principle: its whole
policy is exhausted in the effort to re-
store the rebels to power. When its
leading men talk about finance it is
merely general and false arrangements
of the Republican party as to public
expenditures. l will give you one or
two specimens of their financial talk.
Mr.. Hendricks Of Indiana, who is con-
fessedly one of the ablest leaders of the
Democratic party, in a recent speech
said he wished to know what had been
!. done with the immense sums Of money
: collected from you. He says:
''From the 3Oth of June, 1865, to the
3Oth of June, 1868, the receipts in gold
from customs amounted to S5lS, 49,, 1857
50, and in currency from internal reve-
nue, to $768, 259, 945 81, making, in the
whole, 81. 2S7, Ol2 1913 ri. The interest
on the public debt during these three
years has averaged about sl25, 900, 900
per year, making $375, 100000. That be-
Ing deducted from the sum collected
leaves about $500, Oo0, 900, being more
than $3O0, OO0. 900 per year in si"ie OF
profound peace. except SO far as the
policy has created a state
81 hOstilities. This great sum Of money
has been expended in legislative, judi
,isl, executive and military expenses"
You see that this is a general charge,
hat since the war the Republican party
authorized JOhnsOn's administration to
,xpcnd three hundred millions year
81 ordinary expenses ofthe government:
.et us see bow this stands. The total

deaths multiplied SO rapidly that he
found 1t impossible to secure all the
money, jewels, aud valuables ON the
dead bodies with his own hands, and %
secured assistants 10 20 with him to the
graves, on the condition Of receiving
one half Of the booty he helped them to
obtain. This was called in that day
"Going with Snacks, and soon became
proverbial in the sense ofsharing profits,
spoils, or other things, equally with an
other.
