Tho official canvass OF the vote OF Vermont
gives Gov. Fairbanks majority OF 23.ooZ'
and plurality over Bingham Of % ,l95. This
varies but ten votes from our own figures
heretofore given, and is a somewhat note
worty confirmation of the correctness OF the
FREE Press returns Bot of the - scatter
ing votes. So were cast for Asahel Peck, and
l. more for Col. Mead, c. W. Willard anu
Jacob Estey-all well-known Republicans.
The actual Republican majority on oover-
nor, therefore, was % 500.
Col. Proctor's majority was 4,O24, and
his plurality over Baldwin, 24,0o2. Assum-
ing, as it is fair to do, that at least 80 OF the
scattering votes on Lieut.-Governor were
cast for Republicans, the Republican MAORI
ty on that officer was q, ia.
Treasurer Pages majority is 2i,O14. The
average of these msjorities gives an average
Republican majority of the votes for State
officers of 2i,027.
II is worthy of note that the Democrats
did not know enough about their candidates
O print their votes correctly. All the Demo
cratic votes for Lieut.. Governor printed at
that centre Of Democratic light, the Argus
Office, prove to have been wrong, being ioi
Ebenezer B. Baldwin, whereas his name
IS Eleazer and the Democratic vote o.
another entire county lacks one initial o
his name. There was similar Ignorance
in another county as to whether the hrs

The DEMOCRATIC WOLF, AND Tng REPUB-
LIcAN SHEPHERD DoG.-My good friends,
when the wolf comes to the farmer and de-
mands that all the old bitterness that have
existed between them shall be healed when
the wolf insists upon it that bygones shall
be bygones, and that they shall shake hands
over the bloody chasm OF sheep cOrpseS
do not believe you can find a farmer sufh-
GENTLY kind to take the promises of the
wolf of future good behavior and place him
in charge of the flock. The wolf doubtless
will make the point" Look at the shep-
herd dog in charge of your focks. lie is
getting old he Is ugly he is vicious he
has pups who have behaved badly he has
treated me with the utmost unkindness he
has pursued and followed me yindictiyely
everywhere and, in his old age, now and
then lamb has escaped" The farmer
will say to him My dear, deluded
Democratic wolf, it may be quite
possible that | will change this shep-
herd dog for another shepherd dog,
but so long as God lives l will never
change shepherd dog for wolf. Laugh
ter and applause. Now, if We have got
tired of our old shepherd dog at the head of
affairs, whose teeth have gone into and
through many Democratic wolf; if some
OF his pups have behaved rather badly and
we do not like the way they have been GO
ing on, all we have got to say is that that
glorious old dog that lies there, to-day, in
the sun, with his teeth q little loose from
eating Democratic wolves. has a magni6-
cent record of fidelity back Of him he is
faithful and true in every fiber Of his being !;
he goes out of business on the 4th Of next
March, but there is another shepherd dog
whose name is Rutherford. who is going
square into his position. [Applause. At
ali events no wolves need spply.-Spesch Of

The New York Times the infamous author
of the income ISLANDERS against Gov. Illden,
now couiesses that a proof OF Its charges
..lcaS promised from authorizes an Which arc
had confidence. but an ats absence the charge
must be withdrawn" Tue case then stands
thus The falsity of those accusations being
exposed the author of them is now forced to
confess that the grave charge of swindling
and PERJURY against one of the most eminent
citizens Of the United States was based upon
the promise Of proof by some irresponsible
person and now that the proof fails TO be
forthcoming, the promu gator of the charge,
on bang forced 10 II, withdraws it Was
there ever a more Infamous transaction p
PlonsJwgh Republican (Dom.).
This is choice specimen of Democratic
clndor. OF course the Republican well knows
that the sentence which it quotes from the
Times as applicable to the entire charge of
perjury and fraud brought against Mr.. Tilden
by that paper, had actusl reference to but
single item of Mr.. Tilden's estimated in
come. 1t knows that what the Times with
drew was the statement that Mr.. Tilden re-
eeived a certain sum fro~ the Toledo and
Wabash Railroad Company in 1852, and
that in the same article the Times reitera-
ted. in the most direct terms, the general
charge of perjury and fraud and promised
to sustain it by detailed and circumstantial
proof. How much does such misrepresen-
tation fall short of fiat falsehood?

THE BARRE MURDER.-ln the Washington
County Court, Thursday, the grand jury
reported true bill against Asa 5. Magoon,
for the murder of Russell Srreeter, at Barre,
VT, Oct. Is, 1875. \ recapitulation Of the
circumstances of this murder may not be
uninteresting. On the morning of Oct. Is,
1875, about daylight. peddler by the
name OF Clark was passing through Barre
and discovered a corpse in a field near the
the road, not far from the resideI &c of Han
nah Perrin. The body was identified as
that of RUFUS Streeter. an old man Of poor
repute, accustomed to hard drinking and
deoauchery The corpse lay upon its back,
the eyes were opened wide, and the arms
extended from the body. The head was
bruised and cut beyond description. and a
cut across the abdomen. just under the
breast bone had let the bowels out IN full
sight On the opposite side of the road
from where the body was found was an
indentation in the dirt, which looked as
though a mans head and shoulders had
descended with force. Here were tooth
and two locks OF hair. From this indenta-
ton the body 5 course could be traced al
most straight across the road to stone
which was besmeared with blood and pieces
of desh and broken teeth lay around il. in
dicating that the mans face had been Jam
med repeatedly and fOrclbly against the
stone till lie became extinct, or the rage of
the murderer was sariated. Asa Magoon
was with Streeter the day previous at Mont
pelier, and returned to Barre in the after
noon, and was at the widow PERKINS,
near where the body was found, in the
evening, and was then drunk and quarrel
some, and threatened TO kill Streeter.
When Msgoon was arrested at his home in
Orange, on the same day. blood was found
on his clothing, wagon and harness but
he said the stains were the blood of sheep
that had strayed into neighbours flock.
and to save trouble in driving II. he had kill
ed it and carried 1t home III his wagon.
But when his wife was asked in regard to
the killing of the sheep. she, not knowing
that her husband was suspected of any
other crime than sneep stealing, vehement
ly denied his killing sheep, and said they
had had no mutton in the house for q long
time. But Msgoon, to establish the truth
of his assertion. from side room produced
four quarters OF a newly-killed sheep, and
in the haymow at the barn was found
fresh sleeps pelt. Since his arrest he has
remained very quiet IN jail until this term
of court commenced, since which he has
shown considerable uneasness in his mind.
lie has able counsel for his defence-Heath
and Carleton-and, as the evidence against
him is all circumstantial, it is at least pos
sible that he may be acquitted.
