EALT DORSET.

The dwelling house Of William Tulley
of this place and shed adjoining with n9ar-
ly everything they contained wore burned
TO the ground about eleven o'clock a. IN.
on Tuesday last. Loss considerable, in.
snrance triliug The fire caught above
from the chimney and the whole upper
part of the house was wrapped in flames
before those below were aware eff /; and
all went to ashes in a few minutes.
On the evening of the 23l instant the
democrats had rally in East Dorset. The
meeting was held in Cochran's hall and
was called TO order by w. II. Debee. A
l.. Bowen then made a few remarks and
was followed by w. II. Beboc in pitby
little speech. An audience of about hun
bred persons then being assembled. G.
w. Farewell introduced A. p. Chllds of
Bennington who made long speech. He
was frequently interrupted while speaking
by the loud applause, and acquitted himself
80 as to entertain his hearers very well to
the end. T. w. Park got merciless
scathing The causes of the hard times
were explained and the name of the party
was given that had brought "the wolf
gauDt and hungry to every mans door and
stopped all the factories except the "bloody
shirt factory" When Mr.. Tilden got 10
a new suit of clothes. The national banks
were nuisance and robbed the people and
things gnerally were in right bad way
and were fast becoming worse and would
continue to do so till the democratic party
came into power and honest men held the
offices. If ever he got to congress be
'would kick up a mighty big fuss for
small man." MIR. Hayes was a gentleman
but hadn't as much stamina in his wbo'e
body as Grant had in his little finger. Til
den would make the best president since
Washington and was just as sure to be
elected as election day was to come. Hayes
was in congress in 1866 and voted to put
two thousand dollars back pay in his own
pocket and the bill passed and he had that
two thousand now in his pocket and kept
it then because it want fashionable to pay
1t back. He didn't expect to get to con-
gress. Good men seldom got in congress
or in the penitentiary which in these de-
generate days were synonymous terms.
He read largely from the New York Times
to entangle IL in ito talk" Formerly it
made out Mr.. Tilden a model statesman
and refOrmer, but recently a very bad
man. The campaign edition OF that paper
sent west made Tilden hard money man,
that sent east soft money man or infla-

setting the corpse of John for eels, And
so was commenced the political campaign
in East Dorset in 1876.
The WEEKLY GLOBE that contained our
last, has also the letters of acceptance of
Cows. Tilden and Hendricks. Both of these
gentlemen have the "White house" fever
and OF course "sccept the situation" Only
two enemies, death and the republican
party, stand between them and the height
of their ambition. The gentleman of "tbe
| glass and scythc," they allow to go I'M
named and uuscathed. But not so that
| said party. That is Il tangible thing, a
| mountain to be moved out of its place, of
| their appreciation of the magnitude of the
undertaking their epis,leS themselves, are
| good evidence. The means employed must
| be in proportion to the job to be done. A
| charge OF theft won't make n man dangle
at tie end of a rope. White lies would he
useless and powerless against party that
has saved the union and under God given
| this nation new birth of freedom. 1t is
well perhaps for the readers of these nun
| chausen cpietcs to refresh their memories
in regard to the authors and their past re-
cords. Gov Hendricks has eaten oats at
the democratic crib about thirty years.
| His official life in small things is
said t. be respectable, but in good
| good and important results his political
| career is as barren as the unvegetated Sa-
| haIa In the winter of 1S60-'6l he stood
with Buchanan and the leaders of his party
| in denying all right of coercion. On the
| 9Th of January, 1862, at the Indiana state
convention of the democratic party he
| labored to show that the interest Of the
| states of the northwest was with the south
and that those states should form north
western coniederacy for the time being to
be afterwards united with the south
and to cut loose from the states
of the east. He wanted the Union
restored with slavery. Touching this
| these are his words: " If this is rendered
impossible by the folly or wickelness of
the party in power, then the mighty north
west must take care Of herself, and her
own industries, and not allow the arts and
fnesse of New England and the eastern
lust of power, commerce and gain, to de-
spoil her of her richest commerce and
trade And so when the storm was upon
| us, and neither sun nor stars appeared, and
the Union was threatening to 60 to pieces,
| he was not found working with the energy
| of despair for the general safety, but calm
| ly looking on and keenly looking out for q
| plank upon which to float safely from the
| wreck. In the eyes of Gov. Hendricks,
states "discordant, discovered, belligerent,"
| seem to have been a sight well pleasing,
and to his ears the far Off sound of the pur-
suing horn and hound seems to have been
sweet music. Such, in short metro, is one
| of those two snow. fakes who pirate about
| reform and promise to inaugurate the mil
linium. Gov. Tiden is said to be little
| gray, inveterate bachelor of siXty-six, one
| If thAcn pnnpla xyhn die all "a
but " die daily" all their lives, and at last
| dry up in their tracks and float away in the
invisible air, like thistlc-down. AT that
tender age, when too many boys begin TO
"tish and eager bob for whales within the
ocean of a water pail he turned his at
ten,ion to politics. At first his purse was
about as fiat as If ST. Patrick's day pro-
cession had passed over it, but being a
somewhat yeasty youth, and working ever
since, busy as the leaven which the woman
| put in the three measures of meal, he has,
by hook and by crook, amassed great
wealth and attained his present dizzy emf
nence. But his life and labor has been
none too useful. He never had conscience
| on the brain SO as to amount to a disease.
Indeed, Z" for ways that are dark he is
said to be very particular. 1t is
claimed that under his careful, nursing
| in 1868 the city OF New fork polleu ABOUT
twenty thousand votes more than 1t ever
polled before or since. Mr.. Greeley wrote
| a pungent letter about these election frauds
in which the following sentence occurs !;
"Mr. Tilden, you cannot escape RESPONSE
bility by saying, with the guilty Macbeth,
Thou canst not say | did it; never shake
those CORY locks at me- for you we're at
least passive accomplish in the giant
frauds of last November" Senator Nor
ton, in late speech, says this of Mr.. Til
den "He is lifelong democrat and has
been for twenty years leader in the party
and closely identified with all of its most
Infamous measures. Trained in school
of New York city politics, a graduate of
Tammany Hall, a disciple Of the resolution
of '9S, an ardent sympathlzer with the re-
bellion, he completely filed that character
known during our war as "copperhead."
