to express our hearty thsrks to Almighty God
THAT by HE providence ant guidance our Gov

enabled to fulfill the purposes Of its fou nders,
in offering On asylum to the people OF every
race, securing civil and religious liberty TO all
within its bc-ders, and meeting out to every
individual alike justice and equality before the
law. 1t is, moreover, especially our duty to
afer our humble prayersto the Father Of all
brercies for . continuance OF His divine favor
ia us as q nston and as individuals. BY reason
ct all these considerations, 1, Ulysses s. Grant,
president of the United States. do recommend

-sion Of thei- thanks and PRAYERS TO Almighty

fU's Premiums.

Since the publication OF the list have be-
como aware OF several errors that have crept in
through mistakes OF committeeman, clerks, and
oversight IN making up the list. These errors
sometimes do great injustice to parties who
care more for the printed list than for the
money premiums.
This applies particularly in the case OF W, w.
Hodge, who last year lost his premium on his
stallion, and the consequent publication, 10y the
committee emitting to place the figures oppo-
site his number in the committee book when he
had the premium card attached to his horse.
THIS year Mr.. Hodge entered the ssEae animal,
and at the same time and in the same class,

posing both horses to belong to Mr.. Hodge, and
both received premium. After the copy was
in the printers hands learned how the cas-
stood, and requested that Linderman's name
be inserted opposite his premicn in place OF
Hodge, but when the paper appeared Lindor'
man was accredited with taking both. The

A Row in West Rutland.

The fire in West Rutland, Monday morn
ing, came so near the saloons of O'Neil and
Hanley that it became necessary to remove
the goods from the stores. This the crowd
soon did, ana it is said that in return both
O'Neil and Hanley furnished the crowd so
freely with liquor that they became
drunken, bowling mob. A man whore
name we have been unable to learn passed
by and was assaulted by Barney McGarry
with a stone. The man ran and escaped
Charles Mason and Hiram Smith came by
and the crowd threatened to kill them
They came to Rutland, had warrant
ma le out for the arrest of McGarry, and
Deputy Sheriff M Ellington with Policemen
N. s Sicarns and Richard Spaulding, went
to West Rutland to arrest him. Arrived
at the spot, they found McGarry among
the crowd at the depot. He saw them and
crossed under freight train standing on
the crossing and ran to the shante, back
of the quarries. The officers followed as
soon as they could get around by another
crossing, but were unable to fiod him.

Republican Meetings,
AT PITTSFIELD.

On Saturday evening, Sept. 2, one
of the largest and most enthusiastic meet
ings was held at town hall, (Which was well
filed that we have seen for long time in
this place on similar occasion. The
evening was beautiful, the weather was
cool and bland, and all nature seemed to
be in harmony, and act in consonance with
the true hearted republicans of Pit,sfield,
to maintain the rights of freemen and carry
forward the good cause.
AT o'clock the president Of the even
ing, Rufus Halt, esq, introduced the Hon.
David E. Nicholson of Rutland, who spoke
to the audience for about two hours in
well chosen, clear, eloquent, and mastery
address. We regret that Mr.. Nicholson's
speech cannot be given TO the public en-
tire. Your correspondent will not even at
tempt to give an abstraIt, suffice it to say,
he discussed the record of each party in
such clear and uncontrovertable manner
that no man, democrat or republican, could
fail to see and know who were the aders
uuu dDcttOib VI Tue SuDW-
ing by strong and conclusive argument,
which party with its followers We're in Sc
cret sympathy with treason.
The relative clbims and rights Of both
parties was presented with such force of
argument, the question of right and wrong
was put beyond dispute, showing the
speaker to be master of the situation. In
fact the meeting was perfect success, as
frequent bursts of applause would Indicate
which were very enthusiastic.
Perfect order was the ruling of the eve
ming; "David" fairly beat himself the
great "Goliah" was completely taken down;
killed dead, dead. Pttsfield will show
next Tuesday that republicanism is alive,
up and doing, on the war path, armed for
the conflict. We guarantee that If all the
towns in Vermont do a like proportion &C

her signal gun booming through the land,
from north to south, aud cast to west,
which will echo back to her mountain
homes the death-knell Of treason, oppres-
sion and inflated currency.
After the address, the president called
for the organization of Hayes and

executed by the enrolment of sixty names
and the appointment of officers;
