What Loyal Men Think O
Greeleyss Election.

Wendell Phillips, in his review of the
situation, says /:
San old friend, now residing in
Georgia, who stood, rifle in hand, in
Kansas all through that fight, told me,
just after the Cincinnati convention:
g Sir, before Grant arrested those
twenty Ku Klux in North Carolina |
never slept without loaded musket at
my bed head, and never Nventured into
the village unless fully armed. Since
that stern interference in North Carolina
|, even afar off in Georgia, sleep and
walk about as safe, careless, and free as
you do here. ="
IF Greeley is elected, l suppose,
said |, you'll load those revolvers again.
"Never. know by Southern boast
what that election means. I'll never
risk living in Georgia under Greeley
I'll sell out and come North.
This is what the election of Greeley
means to Southern loyalists, and etloy-
al men are to be found in the North who
think that the triumph of Greeley means
peace and reconciliation throughout the
South. Many of these loyal friends of
Mr.. Greeley have already opened their
eyes TO the truth. We trust all VIII see
the drift of the movement by November
and lend their influence for the election
of the only man now before the people
who can give perfect security to every
law-abiding citizen in the land. The
loyal North saved the nation, let it not
be said that it deserted the loyal people
of the South in their hour of trial. The
election of Greeley means anarchy in the
South and financial disaster in the North.
The election of Grant means peace
everywhere, and continuance of pros
perity which has blessed the nation
since his elevation to office.

AUCTION SALE OF BUILDING Lors.-
The auction sale of building lots in the
southwest part of our village, by Frank
lin Post, came off on Saturday, as adver-
tised. A good number of bidders were
present, and as the lots are finely stu
ated, the entire number (twenty-two)
was sold to twelve different purchasers.
The Rutland Brass Band was in attend
ance, and gave some good music. This
was a new feature at auction sales in
Rutland, though it is common in other
parts of the country. From some of
the building lots sold on Saturday there
is presented one of the finest views of
the Otter Creek Valley and mountains
beyond that can be found from any
point in Rutland. We understand sew
eral parties intend to erect dwellings at
once on lots purchased by them.

which was insufiiciently stamped, though
bearing at least one full rate of postage,
that double rates should be charged

it is claimed, misconstured the law re-
lating to the subject, but declines to re-
verse his decision.

MAYGAM-oTHER COMPANIES INTEREST
ED-wHAT THE OFFICERS SAY.
The New York Times of Tuesday pub
lished the following in regard to the fail
ure of Messrs. Prindle & Mangam, New
York, agents of several well known in
surance companies. Mr., Prindle has
been a resident of Vermont. We give
the report Gas we find it, as matter OF
news. Friends of the parties claim the
account is somewhat exaggerated:
The special agent of the Andes Insur-
ance Company of Cincinnati, II. X.
Lindsay, who arrived in the city recent
Iy, is still waiting to receive mailed in
structions from the company, which
will direct his further action. His or
ders when about to start here were to
cancel all policies presented, and draw
on the company for the outstanding
premiums. These policies are directed
to be presented at No. 1913 Broadway,
where the company has another agency,
and where the business of the company
has been transacted since the failure of
Prindle q Mangam, its former agents.
The agent of the company at this place,
Mr.. Temple, said to a Times reporter,
yesterday, that the company would I'M
dobtedly send sufficient money on tOpay
all the return policies at once, rather
than subject the agents to the trouble of
forwarding them one by one. He said
that the company have not stopped bust
ness, but simply stopped issuing policies.
He also stated that it would be greatly
to the advantage of the company, rather
than to their detriment, were all the in
surers to cancel their policies at short
rate; so much so, in fact, that it would
not take One-third Of the amount (S974,-
449 23) which the Superintendent Of In
surance in Ohio requires as reinsurance
fund to cancel all liabilities Many pre-
ferring to hold policies in a concern
against whose solvency there can be no
doubt have applied for cancellation,
