The Albany Journal thus explains the
true inwariness Of the performances Of the
Democratic State Convention. GOV. Seymour
was not only not Gov. Tliens original
choice for Governor, bat he and his hench-
men openly opposed his nomination until
It became apparent that Dor-heimer could
not succeed This is shown by the fact
stated By Mr. Purly, that when Mr.. Scy-
mour's name was first brought forward,
| Agar and Magoue, Tilden's lieutenant-.
both declared that if nominated Gov Sey-
molr would mol accept This they reiterat-
Ell over and over again. and until the storm
of Indignation excited by their persistent
cHor, to nominate DJrsheimer demonstrated
the certain failure vi the attempt if II were
persisted in.

that if GOV. Seymour was not nominated,

The canvass which closed with the State
election, on Tuesday, was on the whole
remarkably stirring and active one. So lively
had it been. and such has been the standing
and reputation of the speakers on the Re
publican side, that it had conveyed the i'm
preston to some extent, in other States, that
there was really some ground for alarm lest
Vermont should fall off tremendously in her
Republican majority. No such fear was felt
By any intelligent Republican on the ground,
and the canvass would probably have been a
quiet affair, if the Democrats had kept quiet.
Bat uncle Sammy Tilden thought that by
the use Of few thousand dollars he might
prevent Vermont from leading off as pro
nouncedly as she is wont to do in Presiien
tial years. The rolling of his " barrel of
money " into the State the raising Of
Tilden flags, the marching of Democratic
torchlight professions, aroused the Repub-
lieans. If the Democrats were awake, they
proposed to be awake too, and they were
not long in organizing canvass which has
satisfied them and their opponents
that the Republican faith is not
yet at a discount among the Green
Hills. Il has been all their own affair,
too, and without help from the Ma
tional Republican Committee. That Com
mittee. We believe, has not sent speaker
into the State. Gen. Bristow was invited
here by his personal friend, Col Cannon.
Being here, the State Committee secured
him for half dozen speeches. Secretary
Jewell was brought to Rutland by the Rut-
land Republicans without even the aid of the
State Committee Hon. D0rman B. Eaton

FOR the most part filed out the programme
and most Of the speakers have declined pay
for their speeches NJ money has been
spent in buying votes or newspapers; and
the canvass. active as it has been. has been,
We think, a comparatively inexpensive one.
But it has answered its purpose, and Yer
mont gives more than her average Repub-
lean maiority,-a result which ought to
satisfy our friends in other States.
