tendency of the popular mind in the New
England States upon the grave questions now
before the whole American nation. Wait
until We hear from Maine.
From the Boston Traveller.
The Republicans of Vermont have given the
Democrats of that State, and the country, a
most instructive lesson. 1t was SO certain
that the State would go Republican that
the Seymourites hoped the supporters OF
Grant and Colfax would manifest little
interest in the election and allow them, by a
secret agreement to rally in force, and
reduce the majority recorded against them
last year So confident were they of doing
this that the Democrats in other States had
been told to expect good news from Vermont,
and were preparing for a loud and triumph
ant shout or victory. But the plans were
understood, and the Republicans, ,rallying as
they never did before, have elected their
State ticket by an unprecedented majority.
This was the first real battle of the
campaign, and the success which has
attended it will dispel the hopes of the
over confident in the Democratic ranks that
they had any chance of success.
From the Troy Times.
The first note of Republican triumph
comes from Vermont, and it is bugle
blast of triumph that will animate every
Realizing the responsibilities of the crisis.
the sturdy yeomon of Vermont have come to
the rescue of the Union, and given their
enemies such an overwhelming defeat as
must convince them that the current which
sets in for Grant and Colfax is irresistible
The triumph of the State ticket was certain,
but they determined to annihilate the
Democracy. This has been done effect
ually that the State Senate is unanimously
Repu blican, and the House nearly SO. Let
the Democratic Convention at Albany accept
the omen Maine will follow the example
of Vermont, and render the triumph of the
Union Presidential ticket certain.
Loyal men of New York, do you not feel
and know that the Vermont thunders
louder, deeper toned than ever before, mean,
business? =? Do your work half as well, and
New York will surely be redeemed
Let every man do his duty, as the sons of
those who fought at Bennington have done
theirs, and the home of Seymour will give
the finishing blow to the old rebellion and
the new.
From the y. Y. Commercial Advertiser.
Vermont is capable of doing anything in
the way of Republican majority and before
long all its citizens will vote the Republican
ticket. From Pownal to Derby Line there
will be homogeneity and no one will remain
to do reverence to the poor shrouded thing
they call Democracy

.s The divil. We saw: is that the way?

.' The divil, ye say is that the way?
Jack-Yes and now the democratic
party propose to pay OFT the bonds with
greenbacks, and thus everybody will be
treated equally.
- Pat-Is that our platform?
Jack-Not in SO many words-but that
is what it means and now, Pat, | want
you to do all you can for our party
bring the boys out to all the meetings, and
Pat-Hould on. Jack; will yer paying
the bonds off in greenbacks make the poor
man rich the bondholder?
{. Jack-Not exactly; the bondhOlder
will have his greenbacks where we can tax
them.
.s Pat-Then there will be all greenbacks,
and money will be plenty, and We'll git
gould for our greenbacks, if we elect Sey-
mour?
Jack-Not exactly; there is not gold
enough in the country
- Pat-Thin we are not to have gould az
ALL How in the divil are ye going TO pay
off the grecnbacks
. Jack-A part of it will be paid off by
taxation, the money we take from the peO-
pie for revenue and stamps. &c, and as the
greenbacks get worn by constant handling
we will print new ones.
3 Pat-l see; you propose to take the
debt now carried by the rich bondholder
and divide it among the people, rich and
poor alike, by forcing the bondholder to
spend his money for property
. Jack-Exactly. You are learning fast,
and you sec
g Pat-Hould on-an idee strikes me-
If the government debt is all in greenbacks,
and thin in circulation, how many cords of
EN- will it take to buy cord of wood?
50 jack cannot exactly say what they
would be worth-that Will regulate itself
But, by the by, Pat. could you pay me that
little note you owe me , 1t was due yester-
day, and need the money very much.
= Pat-Yes, | know the note is due. and
III pay you according to the dimmecratic
platform.
. Jack-W hat do you mean?
- L name I'll give you fresh note for
the one We have.
Jack-There's nothing about giving
fresh notes to the democratic platform
&" Pat-Yis, We said we pay the bonds off
in greenbacks, and both of them are prom
ises to pay of the same government Yes
give one promise to pay for another one,
and I'll give youa fresh promise to pay for
the one you have now. The note you have
now saws ten per cent. interest the new
one will say without interest, and no time
set for it's payment.
" Jack-But this is an individual matter,
and the other is a government matter. You
honestly owe me, and promised To pay me
yesterday. Your proposition is 10 cheat me
out of my money.
"Pat-Ah' it's chatin' We out Of your
money, Is it? An haven't as good right
to chate ye the government has t. chate
the widders an orphans whose money is all
in government bonds? I'll pay We on the

- THE WAR BETWEEN THE STATES being
= \ Constitional View of the late War be-
tyrnnn tho Sta+os 80 Carsae Chararter
Conduct and Results presented in a series
Of ColIoquies at Liberty Hall, by Alexander
II. Stephens" In two volumes. Vol. |,
National Publishing Company, Philadelphia.
We have received volume first of this work.
1t is dedicated - to all true friends of the
Union under the Constitution of the United
States, throughout their entire limits, with
out regard to present or past party associa-
tions, and to all true friends Of constitutional
liberty, the world over, now and forever
especially to all, everywhere, who may, now
or hereafter, look to the federative system,
between neighboring free Democratic states,
as the surest means Of saving mankind from
ultimate universal monarchical rule. This
work, with all the earnestness of its nature,
which the great subject thoroughly awakens,
is hereby, not formally. but most solemnly
and sacrcdly, dedicated by the author" 1t
is illustrated by engravings of Liberty Hall
Thomas jefferson, George Washington Dan
iel Webster, John c. Calhoun, Henry Clay
and Andrew jackson.
The work is a view of the rebellion from
a rebel standpoint. Mr.. Stephens held the
southern doctrine respecting state rights,
and he calls the rebellion icdr beftoeen states,
instead of, as in fact it was, a war between
eleven states and the federal government.
Mr.. Stephens resisted treason as long he
could, endeavoring to prevent Georgia from
passing an ordinance of secession, but he
always declared that his paramount allegiance e
due to the authority of the people of
Georgia, and whatever they decided to do he
should 90 with them. The volume before
us, containing 654 pages, is elaborate
justification of the right of any state to
withdraw from the Union, and resist by war
the authority of the federal government. 1t
is the Calhoun State Rights doctrine. 1t
put on trial and if Jeff Davis is ever tried
| his defense will be substantially the argu-
ment of this book. Mr.. Stephens holds him
self to be criminal in his war against the
government; and as a result of that doctrine
of course he claims that the government was
| in the wrong from first to last
The work is written in clear and forci-
BILE style, and is Il valuable treatise to those
who wish to understand the grounds upon
which treason justifes itself 1t is also val
liable because it sets forth so distinctly the
doctrine of state rights which the Democrrtic
party is now endeavoring once more to fasten
upon the country. The South still holds tc
that doctrine, and the Democracy still ad-
vocates it; and the book, written by trait
or, thus may satisfy honest men who read il
that the principles of the beaten rebellion
|yet live to fight at the ballot box once NOR
for supremacy.

Gen. Grant, who had been under fire all
day, was now recognized ON the hill and the
men greeted him with loud cheers wherever
he moved
Bragg, pOwerless to resist, was retiring,
probably in the spirit Of his note to Grant,
that - prudence required non-combatants
to leave" He was astonished. 1t was a
position he said, which a line of skir-
mishers ought to have maintained against
any assault
The German soldiers engaged fought with
the steadiness and courage with which their
race, battling for fatherland, conquered Ma
poleon at Leipsic, and drove his victorious
legions beyond the banks of the Rhine.
Grant captured over six thousand prisoners,
forty pieces Of artillery. and seven thousand

AUGUST 31st, 1868.


Far ont into the dying summer night
lean to fold her last hours to my breast
Hallowed and holy--in the moons calm light,
Her fair face fades to its eternal rest.
Upon the silent fields and meadow-ands
Lieth her winding sheet of misty white
Soon will Invisible and ghostly hands
l. Wrap and unfold her beauty from my sight
Through the full trees she ever sendeth back
Her last fond kisses breathed out tendcrly
Across the sea, upon the moons broad track,
Drifteth the sweet freight of her memory,
Sadly she fingers DER grave new-made
Tanning the blossoms there, unfaded yet
Flowers fresh with tears, upon her heart low
laid
Who takcth there her first lone sleep tonight.
Who passed with all her beauty from the world
Laying her fair young head on Summers
breast,
No blight of Autumn on the hairs bright gold
Blue depths of chd-like eyes kissed into rest
Still to he East we lift our longing eyes,
Waiting to meet the new immortal day
Gods Summer mid the palms OF Paradise
Dear smiles given back to faces laid away,
