VERMONT AND VICTORY.

The grand, overwhelming victory of the
Republicans in Vermont is blow that will
stagger to it's very base the Democratic
column. Alabama outrages and general
Southern defiance have been the seed sown
and 10! the harvest appears. This telling
verdict in the Green Mountain State cannot
be explained away on the ground of Federal
interference or overawing influence of pow
erful capitalists, for Vermont is pre-em-
nently State in which the people do their
own thinking. The sensible, reading, re-
fiecting Vermonters have rejected all the
sham reforms, the false issues, and the
shallow sophistries of a party rotten with
old corruptions, dying of old diseases and
paralyzed by bad leadership.
The effect in Vermont is only that which
is felt everywhere. 1t will show itself on
Monday, in Maine, and when the Demo
Gratis of New York meet in Saratoga, next
week, to mend their headless State ticket,
they will have the cheerful knowledge that
the two most important of the early cleo
lions have gone against them, and that
their cause is utterly hopeless.
The Vermonters, moreover, saw, as we
believe every honest man in Maryland
to-day sees, that party which depends for
success on can united South: must, if
successful recognize and pay untold mil
lions in the liquidation of "Southern
claims" They have no faith in a party
whose leaders either fought the Union or

ST. LOUIS AND SARATOGA.

The little political game played SO sue
cessfully at St. Louis, by that shrewd and
accomplished wire puller and tactician,
Samuel Jones Ti!den, has been lost at
Saratoga. Nothing succeeds like success,
and the oman of destiny" who by his
deep laid schemes compelled his own nomi-
nation at St. Louis, by the unfortunate
miscarriage of his plans at Saratoga has
made himself the laughing stock of every
body, except the disguised Democrats, to
whom these early autumn days, are melan-
choly ones indeed. But sadder ones are
yet to come, for coming political events
already cast their shadows before. Samuel
Jones Tilden went to St. Louis as a candi-
date for Presidential honors at the hands
of his party, unsupported by the Democ-
racy of his own State. The bitterest pro-
test against his nomination came from
prominent leaders of the New York Demo-
cracy. To the entire Western element of
his party he was eminently offensive, and
his nomination was finally secured by the
interest. Tilden successful, then followed
the second act of the political drama con-
cocted at Albany. Hendricks was given
the second place upon the ticket. At first
it was currently rumored and generally be-
lieved, that the ambitious Governor would
not accept the place of second fiddler to
the eminent political soloist. But Tiden
knew Hendricks well. Better far than it
since appears he knew Seymour. At first
Hendricks demurred. But kilograms pour
ed in upon him. Influential friends pressed
his acceptance, and with the assurance that
apparently irreconciliable differences of
opinion supposed to exist between him and
"the other Governor could be easily
adjusted, he did not decline the unsought
honor. Then weeks elapsed, during which
frequent conferences were had, until delay
becoming dangerous, finally after much
tribulation those letters of acceptance were
given TO a nervous and expectant Democ-
racy. The gist of the whole transaction
was that Tilden had compelled Hendricks
acceptance of the nomination as Vice
President simply as condition necessary
to his own success, since no one short of
Hendricks could reconcile the Intlationists
to his nomination, and secure also for the
Democrats the prestige of the October
election in Indiana. 1t was beside an
appeal to Hendricks ambition, which his
party prospects would not allow him to
disregard. The Elk Governor of New York,
however, was too old a political bird to be
caught by such empty chatf. With too
many serious physical and mental concerns
on hand even the despairing cry of his
most influential friends and supporters
failed to move the infiexibe will of the
Sage Of Deertield. The plot was well con-
ceived, and failed of success only because
Tiden had net well calculated the metal of
the man he sought to turn to his political
uses. St. Louis was not to be repeated at
Saratoga, and chagrined and mortified by
the unexpected failure of his schemes, the
man of destiny will on Wednesday next
make another turn of the wheel of political
fortune, sanguine, no doubt, of more sue
cessful results.

Up to this point in the Presidential can
vass all the falsehoods that the most fertile
Democratic imagination could invent have
not been one-tenth SO injurious to the repu-
tation of Gov. Hayes as the simple truth
has proved damaging to Gov. Tilden and
his Presidential prospects. Every fact
brought out in the campaign has shown
Tilden to be first-class Democrat, but
third-class Reformer. The Republicans
started the canvass with one decided ad-
vantage. They presented to the people of
the nation as their candidate for the Presi-
dency man whose personal and political
records were simply invulnerable, while on
the other hand, the searching investigation
which Tilden's pretensions provoked, have
likewise compelled his supporters to be-
come his apologists and defenders.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.

A WORD FOR THE WORKING MAN.
In all manufacturing interests invest
ments are made by two classes of persons:
the capitalist invests capital, the workman
invests labor. They are equally valuable,
necessary to each other and essential to
success. This being true, by what right
does the capitalist appropriate to himself
the lion share of the profits? Not the
" lion share' alone, but all over and above
bare subsistence for the laborer. But
the times are hard and the wages of the
workman must be cut down. Now, is it
right, is it just, to deprive the workman
and his family of the comforts of life in
order that the capitalist may roll in luxury
If the times are hard and the profits of
business smaller than formerly, does not
right and justice require that the propre-
tor letrench in his luxuries and not enjoy
them at the expense of the comforts and
even necessaries of his employee Might
never makes right. How men, protesting
to be governed by the principles of the
Christians religion, can begin retrench-
ment in the already comfortless homes
of their inadequately remunerated en-
ploye, in order that they themselves may
continue luxurious style of living, can
not understand. l have seen in an old
oooh something ike the following: Rob
not the poor because he is poor; because
he is detenceless) neither Cypress the atfiict-
ed in the gate, for the Lord will plead their
cause and spoil the soul of those that spoil
them;' g He that oppresseth the poor to
increase his riches shall surely come
to WANT 81 will come near to Judgment
and | will be a swift witness against
those that Cypress the hireling in his
wages Don't forget, rich man, that the
same old book says: " Blessed is he that
considereth the poor; the Lord will deliver
him i'll time of trouble;' g He that hath
pity upon the poor lendeth unto the Lord
And this is done more when they are ade-
quately rewarded for their toll than by
almshouses for their reception.

his Maker, but he that honoreth Him hath
mercy on the poor"

persons who cannot locate any particular

If they walk, they soon tire; mental efforts
became burden, and even joys are dmmed
by the shadow of the weakness which is
cast over their lives. Recourse is had

FLIRTING.

II IL remarkable, but nevertheless true,
that as rule, flirts, both male ana iema'e'
do not marry quickly. The chances are
that girl who becomes engaged at eigh-
teen. and goes on becoming engaged and
disingaged. as is the custom for hlrts to
do. intimately settles down into a confirm
ed old maid. If she does wed, as gen
eral rule, she developes into virulent
wasp, makes her husband miserable, and
brings up her children badly. 1t is not
very difficult TO find reasons why tiirts do
not marry Sensible men admire in wo-
man something besides a pretty face and
engaging manners. They love intellect
and heart qualifications. which the tlirt
does not possess. The true woman al
lows her affections full play, and Is not
ashamed of them. She will not lead
man TO believe she cares for him when she
does no such thing; she will not flint with
him lust for the sake of flirting. She has
derived her education from something else
than ee-volume novels and the society
of the empty-pated She can be thorough
lv merry, but she can be merry without
being dlotic. She may attract lsss alten-
ton in drawing room than ilirt does,
because she is less noisy and obtrusive;
but for all that, she will get married soon
err, and make her husband better and
truer wife. A true woman does not care
for the spoony young man. She dislikes
his foppishness. the vivid compliments he
pays her. and his effeminacy. He quickly
finds this out and leaves her in peace.
Thus if he ultimately gets married. it is
