THE VERMONT ELECTION.

Before the vermont elecLlOn Ine
Greeleyites claimed that the Repub-
lican strength would be greatly re-
duced, and to such an extent that
Cincinnati Baltimore ticket would
carry the State on the Presidential
vote. The assumption was that the
detection in the party would cause
its defeat. That "ground swelP'
for Greeley was to do the business,
but it did not come along, and there
is now a weeping and wailing and
crashing of teeth among his follow
ers.
1t is evident to every one that the
people of Vermont thoroughly un-
der stand the complexion of our
politics at the present time. Every
thing was done by the Liberals and
Democrats to create division in the
Republican ranks. The result of
these desperate attacks was the C IN
solidation of the party, and at no
point was the enemy able on the
day of the election to make an i'm
preston. Instead of a decrease
there has been an increase in the
Republican vote. Greeley has
found that his influence in the Green
Mountain State is not worth the
price of one ofhis Chappaqua pump
kins. His personal appearance in
Vermont effected nothing, except
to satisfy the intelligent men of the
State that he was not fit to be Pres
ident A poor old Liberal -Republi-
can-Democratic Demagogue pede-
strianating among the valleys
and mountains, begging for votes,
was a little too much for the staid,
solid liberty-loving citizens of the
State. They are satisfied with Pres
ident Grant, and do not want Gree
ley, the representative of jeff Davis,
to become the occupant of the
White House. Vermont spent too
much treasure, and gave too much
priceless blood for the preservation
Of the Union to now be found ad-
vocating the claims of men to office
who are the tools of the Democracy
of last week.
- In the election of Tuesday, Gree
ley may read his doom. With no
division in the Republican party of
Vermont, he may just as well under
stand that there will be none of any
account whatever in Maine, Penn
sylvania, Ohio, Indi ma, and Iowa,
in the election to oc cur during this
month and Octo Der. Defeat for
the Democratic Greeley candidates
in these States is the defeat of Gree
lev so sure as the sun will rise to-
morrow morning. With their over
welming discontinue no hope will
remain. The verdict will be render
ed ere the Grand Jury of the People
pronounce it ON the 5th of Novem
ber.
The peace and prosperity of the
country require that only men of
known capability, experience and
tested merit shall be chosen to con-
duct national affair. North Caro-
limo and Vermont have responded to
this requisition in the choice of
their State officials, and their voice
thus uttered in advance is that the
Cincinnati Baltimore ticket is un-
worthy Of support, dangerous 70 the
interst of the republic, and not to
be trusted with power. While we
have peace and enjoy prosperity let
us retain them, and not wander
away alter strange gods. Under
Providence we are realizing the
benefits of both. and will secure
their retention and blessings, only
through the re election of President
Grant, and the triumph Of Republi'
can principles.

Senator Wilson addressed large
meeting in Bangor the other day.
He said that he felt very sure of the
snccpss of the Republican ticket,
and predicted that twenty seven Of
the Northern States would go for
Grant, and also seven Of the old
slave States. He estimated the Re-
publicans who would go for Greeley
in the United States at about 80,

The pointed fact that Greeley has
struck the down grade is beginning
to penetrate the comprehension OF
the blindest people in the country.
1t dosen't affect them all iH precise
ly the same way, though. Some OF
them grow profane, Others bristle up
and pretend to doubt, but the ma
jority settle down in the dumps and

struction, are guaranty of accuracy. strength

makes woman laugh.
The shuttle, riding in its carrier, is subject
to no wear, and the friction Of trace" is
avoided. The tensions admit of such nice ad-
justment, and with such ease and certainty,
that one Of the great difficulties met with in
ordinary machines is entirely avoided. The
feed is adjustable, so that it will work with
equal facility either light or heavy goods.

WAS THE LOUISVILLE CONVENTION
--....,.. A SUCCESS,

The Cleveland Herald says that
depends upon the standpoint from
which you look at it. The Greeley
ties unite in pr onouncing it an
unmitigated fizzle, without a single
redeeming feature, adding the ora
cular declaration: "We told YOU
so; of course it couldn't be any
thing else but failure" In the
mind of one who has mingled with
these men for four or five days, has
had an opportunity to form a toler-
ably correct idea Of the character
and purposes Of the movement, there
arises faint suspicion that the
Chappaquacks may not laugh SO
much after a while. In Noah's time
the people thought it wasn't going
to be much of a shower, but they
changed their minds when they had
to s'swim for it," 1t Is about all
Greeley can do now to 'ftouch bot
TOM" He is standing on tip-toe to
keep his head above water, ,and can't
stand mnch more of a rise.
The delegates themselves seem to
feel jqhilalt oyer the result. They
claim, to represent very large vote,
but whether they will be able to
draw back any considerable portion
of the Democracy now SO thorough
lY committed to Greeley, may be
doubted. They say they can do iti
a short time will develop their
strength. Their sincerity and earn
estness admit of no question, and
the moral effect of their organized
protest against the corrupt coalition
will be felt to some extent, in any
event. They propose to call State
Conventions at anee and express
their determination to put State
tickets into the field. Their plan is
to lay out Greeley, stiff and stark
at the October elections, believing
that, when it is clear he has no hope
of success in November, the recre-
ant Democracy will return to their
first love. .s. .r-.-. --.
From the standpoint of the news
paper reporter, who has "an eye to
business" the convention was an
unqualified success. Its novel fea-
lures, exciting scenes, and ludicrous
episodes afforded ample scope for
journalistic pencils. The frantic
enthusiasm, at times, of those old
Bourbons, the lynx eyed jealousy
with which they watched for any at
tempt to spring Greeley trap upon
them, eplmipating in tue expulsion
of George Francis Train, the uproar
and confusion that at times beg
CARED all description, the sudden
fall from the height of rejoicing to
the lowest depth Of woe when
OConor's positive decliIatiQH fell
upon them-all forming combina-
tion rarely cqualed.

THE SEWING MACHINE,

The following is one of Mr.. Prentice's
little waits, so many of which appeared in
the Louisville Journal in its palmiest
days:
"Sometime."-It is the sweet, sweet
song, warbled to and fro among the top
most boughs of the heart, and filling the
whole air with such joy and gladness as
the songs Of birds do when the summer
morning comes out of darkness, and day
is born on the mountains. We have all
our possession in the future which we call
Sometime" Beautiful flowers and sing
ing birds are there, only our hands seldom
grasp the one, or our ears hear the other.
But, oh reader, be Of good cheer, fer all
the good there is golden Sometime" when
the hills aud valleys of time are all passed:
when the wear and fever, the disappoint-
ment and the sorrows of life are over, then
there is place and the rest appointed of
God. Oh, homestead, over whose roof fall
no shadows or even clouds; and over whose
threshold the voice of sorrow is never heard;
built upon the eternal hills, and standing
with thy spires and pinnacles Of celestial
beauty among the palm trees of the city on
high, those who love God shall rest under
thy shadows, where there is no more sor-
row nor pain, nor the sound of weeping

A considerable number of white persons
were present, by special request, as lockers

with good things, and it is needless TO say
that this part of the entertainment was
