Nclv Hampshire Election

The result OF the late State election Of
New Hampshire, which took place on
Tuesday last, may be summed up rs fol-
lows:
Republican Governor and Railroad
Commissioner, chosen by $500 majority
The reelection Of three Republican
members to the Forty-first Congress by
liberal majorities
The choice of majoritie- of Republican
members of the Governors Council, the
State Senate and the House Of Represen-
tatives
An inspection Of ,hc returns 4hov that
the total vote. as might have boon cx-
pected, was light The Republican ma
jority, however, holds up admirably, as
compared with the average majority Of
late years, 50 that taking all the circum-
stances together, this may be pronounced
i victory eminently creiitable to the Re-
publican- of the old Granite State. The
new tactics of the Demo cratic managers
of trying to wheedle over the soldiers by
presenting ITt-h tdUIludttS anu tpuCtit-
ing as well as possible the old issues of
their party, have met with nc success, for
the people see at once through the at
tempted disguise They see, also, that
the men who assailcd Lincoln are equally
hostile at heart to Grant, and that the
best way is to meet them at the outset Of
the administration with a decisive re-
bnke.
This gratifying success is largely due
to the deserved popularity Of the Cover
nor elect, Hon. Onslow Stearns His in
tegrity, great business capacity and
energy, are known to all his fellowciti-
zens and it is hazarding but little to pre-
diet that he will make one of the most
successful and acceptable Chief Magis-
trates that New Hampshire ever had

cation, published in your daily Of the I'd
inst, informs us literally in respect to mat
ters in which we have, at present, no par
ticular interest, but is very careful to Keep
silent on all matters In respect to aohtch zee
sought or cared for tnJormation. We are
yet without any information as to how the
building of the Lake Shore road is To be
any ''blow at Rutland" or in respect to
his position in regard to equal rights in
railroad legislation. The easiest way to
dispose of d;sagreeable subject may be
to say notling adoM il but nc one ever,
heretofore, suspected the editor OF the
Courier of having any disinclinatien TO
stare the miSic," and we did not expect
any lodging Of this character from him.
We desire to know whether we can count
on him d. friend Of the old Democratic
principle of equal rights AID fair play, as
applied to railroad legislation. Some of
Us are not without apprehonsions that his
ideas OF equal rights are not unlike those
which the lrishman had in regard to
Hberty, who defined it being the right
to do as please, and to make everybody
else do as Iplease to have them" Is it his
platform that equal rights are very good
for Rutland, and the Rutland & Wood
stock railroad. but will not do for the
Lake Shore 2" Or will he favor gem
eral railroad law whic.. shall serve all
alike We are pleased to hea. iro.n him
that he desires the prosperity Of those
outside of Rutland as we'll as inside. and
regard this as hopeful indication that
he will, in time, outgrow the influence of
that spirit of narrow selfshness which
would seek favors for ones own locality
at the expense Of others.

MR.. EDITION, The late decision Of the three
branches Of our City Government to widen
Centre street from Freeto Commercial street,
opening street through the Richardson mon.
erty, (the preliminary steps having been ta-
ken, suggests train of thought ON the nam
ing ofstreets.
First-It seems desirable in naming streets.
that they should have descriptive meaning
IF a portion of it is on high ground, High
street is an appropriate name; If broader than
other streets, and it is not called Brood street
and does not bear the liberal donors name
and snowy part Of the city, State sireet Is
for this reason suitable name; but Free
street, for this reason, is not suitable name :.
it means everything, and therefore it means
nothing. II it was appropriate when it had
been only path, and received the name of .
street, it has now no meaning, for all streets
are equally free; and therefore the name should
have been changed long age.
And now as to the street first named. II
Centre street has in any respect been wanting
in reputation, new that it is to be widened,
and since no cross street is more central, would
not the slight alteration from Centre to Central
be an improvement, without an objection
especially as all do not agree as to the best
authority for spelling the former, and there il
no disagreement as TO that of the latter? G..
