THE CAMPAIGN IN THE CITY.

The Liberal Republican HEADQUARTERS.
Colonol Ethan Allen resumed his duties at the
Liberal Headquarters, at the Glenham Hotel, yes
terday, having returned from Syracuse and an i'm
provement In the working capacity Of the force at
headquarters was at once apparent. Mr.. T. O.
Everts, the member from Montana, has Just arrived
from Vermont, and states that the republican
party had thoroughly canvassed that State flood
Ing 1t, not with political documents alone. but with
radical daily newspapers, which hammered radical
sentiments and startling charges against the Op-
position into the heads Of the Vermont farmers, un-
currence on the side of the democrats and liberals.
The leading republican papers were given every day
and as the Iibera and democratc t cSmmttees
had contented themselves with sending one
dry political tracts into that section, the
result was such as might have been foreseen. "A
ling campaign newspapers, which present unan-
swerable and new political facts every day, and
reply to charges that nave gone before IN the oPpo-
ought to be distributed among the voters OF the
States, rather than the political tracts that are
now in fashion. With the independents newspapers
permeating everywhere, there Is no need OF politi-
cal tracts. Clubs ought to be originated. and the
subscription ought to be low, so that the voter,
while being at little expense for his political inor
nation, will feel that 1t is honestly paid for by him
self, and thus Is more valuable and trustworthy
Advice gratis Is generally unheeded." Among the
visitors during the day were General Francis Of
Louisiana; J. Heron, Major John ID. Rogers, OF vir-
