As for Vermont and Maine, nobody, of course.

OF tho powerful efforts made by the Admins
tration to bring the Radical majoriiies up to
the old Republican figures IL has disastronsly
failed thus proving that the Greeley ground
swell has shaken the very citadel of the Radi-
cal party. The loss In Maine Is particularly
worthy OF note for there, after a most excl.
ting canvass, In which the GRANTEES exrrted
themselves to the utmost, a full vote was polled
ior the hrst time since 1868, aud the result Is a

On the sth Of October the Pennsylyania and
Indiana elections are to take place, and from
both these States We have the most cheering,
accounts. Randall, tho chairman of the Penn.
sylyania Executive Committee, at once a cl ear
headed and prudent man, assures ns that Moth
ing but the grossest frauds could defeat Buck
alew, aud that measures have been taken which

IN Indiana, we tear, have not taken, thus far
as thorough measures as they should to guard
against the colonization Of negroes from Ken

voting contemplated by the Radicals, but they

Greeley's election will be a sure thing. and
there is not the slightest doubt that a much
greater number Of Republicans in proportion
have espoused the Liberal cause in these States
than In Vermont aud Maine, aud a much
greater number than would be required In A
fair election to put down Radicali.m.
Omo.-The Cincinnati Enquirer saws IL can
assure the Liberals abroad that the supporters
Of Greeley aud Brown will carry that State
both at the October and November elections
II there is anything In indications. The change
IL the German vote in Cincinnati, Cleveland,
Toledo, Dayton, Columbus, and the nortbwost
will be more than sufficient 10 change the past
political character Of the State. very large
part 0l the German vote, 90 called, has been
against Us for years, bat now there are fcw
among them who will touch General Grant or
any Of his ticket. Hamilton county gave
nearly 5000 majority for Grant II trH gire
that same figure nor against him Ia many
other counties the change will be equally
marked. We have never in our political ex-
pericncc seen the political skics as bright a,
they are this fall. All that is needed is efficient
organization to give Greeley the State by full
10000 majority.

OF many strangers, in regard To the political

positive that Greeley will carry the state by A
larger majority than Walker In 1869. Not one
Conservative refuses to vote for him, aud you
may rest assured that Greeley will carry every
thing with a sweep.

which he has visited the utmost enthusiasu

there can be but litle doubt, II the present

drieusiblc revolutionary means. The Inference
IS that uuited states troops are to ba used 10
MS behalf As Caldwell was chosen hy illegal
votes, the Democrat aud Conservative, are
preparing to contest the election ia a legal
constitutional way before the Legislature At is
meeting In November. Il this is done. the
drantites declare that Governor Caldwell will
pronounce the Legislature an Illegal body.
IL IL were Radical body he would recognize
1t, whether it be legal or illegal 1t Is oniy be-
cause 1t is Democratic that he meuaces il with
violence. The proposition, therefore, is, that
II Nerrimon dares TO contest his election be-
fore the Legislature, be will destroy BIT. oppo-
nenrs case by destroying the tribunal that

ton declaring the seats In the Legislature va
cant, aud order an election fur new Assembly.
That election will be controlled by Federal
bayonets, and such a return made as will Sc
cure GoTernOr Caldwell ia his place and at
the same time reelect Senator Pool one of the
most audaciOus frauds In the whole south.
This Is the projected cnnspirpcy to cheat the
people Of North Carolina out Of their rights.
The Grant party are prepared TO trdmple alike
upou the Constitution, the rights Of the States
and the rights Of the people u retain power
and control the Treasury. Hut the game Is
dangerous, and those who raise the demon
may be devoured by him. Such thingl have
bsen-may be again. Let the Democrats go
forward and purge the gubernato ,ial poll Of
all fraudulent Notes, without regard 10 the
threats OF Caldwell or the bayaueis vi Grant.
WENDELL PHiLLiPs ASD rus Sgaaocs. When
this wretched fanatic the other day inspired
tho negroes to arm IN the event OF Greeley's
election, no committed crime against the
State, tue country, and especially the whole
negro race. THIS attempt to incite the negroes
against Greeley and his supporters, presents a
feature Of the canvass that every live man
must in his heart despise. The Grant party
are doing all In their power at the south aud
In the North to incitc negro hatred of the
whole white race who do not support Grant
There are In the land over five millions of ne
grOes, aud quite one million of negro voters

SouTH CARoLfSA.--A dispatch from South
Carolina, signed by a prominent Grant man
who Is nov stumping that state, indi 'ates that
the Democrats, with the "hloses" wing of the
Republicans, had united, aud would support
Greeley aud Brown for President and Vice
President aud Moses for Governor. The dis
patch says that The 0rdnge6ury Timss, a lead
ing Democrat organ, hoists the Greeley ticket
10 connection with Moses, or the regular Re-
publican ticket This, should 1t prove true,
will unquestionably give the State to Greeley
aud the Moses ticket IN November.
NEW foRK.--The monster political demon
stration Of the year occurred in the city OF New
York on Thursday evening. Fully sixty
thousand people were present, and speeches
were made from seven stands by distinguished
Democrats and Liberal Republicans.
