The Political situation III "is-
souri,.


An opportunity has been afforded us
,r;tbin the last few days of learning
aon,otbinp of the political situation of
Missouri, and the opinion entertained OF
Gratz Brown by some of his fellow cit
liens who are among the most proml-
nent and intelligent in that State. Inc
Republicans of Missouri have presented
an able and popular State ticket a
large number of the delegates supported
B. Gratz Brown in 1870, whom they
now heartily repudiate as a political de-
serter and support Grant and WILSON,
Gen. John b. Henderson, the nominee
for Governor, is man OF undoupteu
ability gand strength. He was OhlVeu
States Senator and was defeated by Carr
Schurz on account of his vote on the
Johnson impeachment question, but Mr.
Henderson did not desert his party and
nrincipIcs. but bravely stood by both%
and challenged admiration for his hon
estv and consistency His Congressional
record was proud one. He made the
first draft, and by voice and vote he sus-
tanned the Ihlrteenth anu ro,'I 'ocll,l

Franklin Post has erected, at his
mothers grave, what is intended as a
family monument. 1t is about fifteen
feet in hight, and weighs ten thousand
pounds, and from the best Sutherland
Falls Italian marble, and cost six hun
dred dollars. The monument was made
by H. Z. Chandler, West Rutland. and
is probably the finest one in the Gene
terry, and adds great deal to its general
appearance There have been quite a.
number of expensive monuments erected
the past year, which shows that our peo-
pie have taken hold in good earnest and
are rapidly carrying out the plans for
identifying and adjoining our cemetery.

How GREELEY's SPEECHES ARE REcEIr-
ED. Greeley speech in Pittsburg, Friday
and his assault upon the recent Soldiers
and Sailors Convention, are much talked
Of in Washington, and by republicans,
are regarded as calculated to damage the
democratic cause IN the Northern States
and drive away from his support many
,e1-Cnion soldiers who would otherwise
probably have voted for him. South
en politicians in Washington, men who
were rebels in the late war, are enthu-
alaStic over the speech, and assert that
Greeleys declaration that he would have
favored disunion had he believed that a
majority of the Southern people desired
it, will arouse a spirit of enthusiasm
throughout the entire South and give re-
newed hope that possibly by Greeley's
election the South may regain what it
lost by the late war. and make the ''lost
cause triumphant yet.

We understand that Prof. IHagar,

a house for permanent residence. We
are advised by those who know the pro-
fessor and observe his works there, that
his business as a geologist, since his dis
missal from the State Survey by the tail
of the Greeley kite, Gov GratZ Brown,
is evidently more profitable than it was
when under an annual salary of $4,000 a

The steam saw and planning mill
owned by Mr. B. Dexter, was burned to
the ground, Friday morning, Sept. Goth.
The origin of the fire is unknown. 1t
was discovered about 2 o'clock, as the
night passenger train was approaching
from the north, which gave an alarm
with its shrill whistle The bell was
also rung, the cry of ''fire" raised, and
many of our citizens FASTENED towards
the brilliant scene, The mill was locat-
ed near the depot and other buildings,
and had not the author of kind provi-
dence just favored us with a bountiful
supply of rain, these, to human appear
ance, must have shared the same fate,
for as the devouring flames were fulfill
ing their mission, clouds of fiery cinders
arose which were waited by the wind
and distributed like large snow flakes
upon all objects in their way Lawyer
Walker, of this village, assembled an adj
jacent building to assist in its protection
when the ladder gave way and he fell to
the ground, sustaining more or less in
jury. We hope and trust it will not be
of long duration. Mr.. Dexter paid S10,-
900 for the mill property (although the
original cost was considerable more) and
had it insured in various offices for &c.
500. A few hundred dollars worth of
lumber, nearly or quite prepared for
market, were also destroyed. In fact
the flames communicated so rapidly with
the whole building after ignition and had

Tho Connecticut Election.

Last. yearMr. Jewell, the Republican can
didste for Governor OF Connecticut, was
elected by only eighty.slx majority Cover
nor English being the Democratic cand''
date: This year Governor Jewell is in the
field for reelection; his opponent oeine
Mr.. Richard D. Hubbard, liberal Democrat
and "a true and fearless Union man" during
the war between the States. The contest
must be very clese, and the result OF the
vote to-day will be awaited with much in.
terest. 49,.
As the administration party have been
conspicuously active, using money and pat.
ronsge without stint, it is highly probable
that Mr.. Jewell will be reelected. Such
result win hardly grieve the more sagacioue
leaders of the Democracy, although it Will
lead to the election Of Republican senator
from Connecticut The Connecticut Demo
Gratis have. adopted the Missouri Liberia!
platform, and the one question to be decid'
ed to-day is whether the State does, or does
not, support President Grant. A hepuDll'
can victory will3be very properly regard
ed as an endorsement OF the administration
which, following on the heels OF the Demo
cratic defeat in New Hampshire, may be
confidently expected to confirm the National
Democracy in the adoption OF such poilcy
as is most likely to defeat President Grant
in November. The usesoi political adyersl-
ty will then, indeed, be sweet.
