We congratulate the people of Rutland
county, as well as of the whole state, on
the excellent nominations made for sen
ators at the republican county convention,
yesterday. Messrs. Smons, Williams, La
throp and Brigham are, each and ell, men
of intelligence, integrity, business capacity
and, most OF them, of legislative expert
ence. Take them all in all, and they are
head and shoulders above the material out
of which the people of Vermont have been
accustomed to make senators in years past.
With such senators, Rutland county will
occupy the position she is entitled to in the
Sc lale, and will take the very foremost
place in that body. The other nomina-
tions, with single exception, were emi-
ne tly respectable, and reflect credit upon
the convention and the republicans of Rut-
Ian county. The exception referred to,
was ol not yet to be made, VIGOROUSLY
bad nomination with nothing to recommend
it, and everything 70 condemn it, to the
voters of Rutland county, and, unless we
greatly mistake their temper, it is one that
they will rebuke at the polls.

CORRUPTION IN AMERICA.

The st. Louis platform in its sweeping
arraignment of the republican party, refers
to senators proftipg secretly by their
"votes as law Makers" and a" five chair
men of the leading committees of the
late house of representatives exposed in
" jobbery the reference being, as it is
supposed, to the transactions in the Credit
Mobiier. The three senators were Henry
Wilson, who proved his skirts clear of all
connection herewith and who, as is uni
there ever was an honest man In the coun-
try James w. Patterson of New Hamp-
shire, and James Harlan of Iowa, both of
whom sought office after the disclosures,
but were relegated to private life by the
republican party itself on the mere suspi-
cion of wrong doing. AS to the " five
" chairmen, it is sufficient TO say that
committee of the house Of representatives,
two-thirds of which was opposed TO the re-
publican party, found that there was
81 nothing in the conduct or motives of
" these members that required action on
the part of the house. So this portion of
the sweeping arraignment falls to the
ground.
Wehave not one word to say in defence,
excuse, justification, or palllaton of the
course pursued by the Credit Mobiier; it
is sufficient for our purpose, this morning,
to say that it owed its origin neither to the
republican party or to congress that it
procured no favorable legislation either
from the republican party or from congress
by means Of ''iobbery," by senators or rep
resentatlves ''secretly protitDg by their
''votes" or otherwise that the objection

its candidate announces himself as opposed
to all the abuses and corruptions which
have characterized the present admnistra-
ton, and determined to do all in his power
to correct them il the opportunity is given,
while in fact 1t is obvious to the most shall
low and perverse that the success of the

creating confidence In its disposition and
ability to effect thorough and complete re-
form, President Grant is throwing away all
reserve and discretion and eliminating from

The political effect of the retirement of
Mr.. Jewell will be slight. He had no
special weight in the cabinet or in the eyes
of the country except as an honorable,
amiable republican who rejo'ced in his
high station and meant to "help the GAUGE"
1t is not in the power of the president to
do any more harm to Governor Hayes.
The fact that Hayes was not the presidents
choice the fact that in his letter of &C.
ceptance he completely, and we might say
rudely, ignores the president, all show that
between the party and the administration
at least, for the purposes of this campaign
| there is wide division. Hayes does not
mean to carry any more of Grant than he
has to carry already, while Grant cares
| little about Hayes. Grant has shown in
| the Yaryan case in his treatment of the
| invitation to go to Philadelphia on the
| Fourth, in his appointment of Fisher, in
| his forcing Bristow out of the cabinet, and
now IN his dismissal of Jewell, that he
cares very little about the party.
But since the action of the Clncinpat
convention cut short the presidents ambi-
ton for third term, and at the same time
Disappointed his hope of being able to nllu-
ence the choice of his successor, he has
seemed more reckless than ever and more
determined to stand BY the friends against
whom the several reforms seemed to be
aimed The fact seems to be that he has
taken the reform movement in the republi-
can party as a personal afiront. He is
sharp enough to see that his own adminis-
l, traiion has created the necessity for il, and
that its success can only be interpreted as
an expression Of profound dissatisfaction
with his policy, his appointments, his
methods, and the whole tenor of his ad-
minstration. 1t iSnot strange then that
with his disposition and his views he
should undertake, even at the close of his
Official term, and at the risk of increasing
the odium already resting upon his civil
administration, to make those vino have
offended him feel the weight of his dis
pleasure. --Neio York Iribune.

Stewart, to have the probate OF the will Of
MIR. Stewart opened so that the petitioners
could contest the will. The surrogate says
it would be an unwise exercise Of judicial
discretion of the court to open probate
when no good could inure to the petition
ers, and when it would be likely to throw
dscredit upon the tenure of the real estate
devised to Mrs. Stewart and paralyze the
great enterprises now in progress.
