Serious Accident at Montpelier.

The Republicans of Montpelier, Fri.
day night, formally opened the cam.
paign, and Young Republican and q
Garfield club was formed. A very fine
banner was stretched across the street
bearing the likeness of the Republican
candidates, by the Young Republicans,
and an address was delivered by Rep.
resentative Joyce to large audience
An unfortunate accident occurred
which married the pleasure of the occa-
sion. 1t had been arranged for salute
to be fired, and while Henry WILEY,
Clark b. Roberts, Ira A. Wash burn
and Edward Wright were loading for
the third round, the brass cannon was
prematurely discharged, and all were
knocked senseless. Henry Wiley had
his left arm blown off and was other
wise injured, and Clark Roberts had
his right arm blown of, while the
other gunners were not seriously In.
jured. Wiley was taken to his home
near by, and his arm was amputated
three inches below the elbow. Roberts
was taken to his boarding house and
his arm taken of three inches above the
wrist. Both arc doing well. The for
mer has vito and two children: the
latter is single. The cannon is a small
brass one, the property of the state, and
is said to be the same enc that killed a
man named LaRock, some years AGO.
by premature discharge. The gunners
think the trouble was in the swab, and
that fire was in the gun.

w Once during the early career of
the army of the Potomac, when Nc
Clellan was executing some of bis mar
velous movements, the division to
which Gen. Hancock's brigade belong
ed was on the march, with Hancock's
brigade in front, followed by the ver-
mont brigade under Gen. Brooks.
Hancock decided to encamp in grove
to one side of the line of march, and
riding ahead found a road which led
to it by rather roundabout way. He
led his troops onward with all the pre-
cision dear to the professional soldier,
while Gen. Brooks, who also had set a
covetous eye upon the same grove for
his men, ordered the fences torn down
and took the Vermont boys "across
lots" to the spot, where they were COM
fortably engaged in preparing their
coffee and breaking up their bareback
with stones into pieces to fit their
m ouths, when Haucock's brigade APP
pearcd, having marched around nearly
mile out of the way in the hot sun.
When he saw how he had been out
generated, he rode up to Brooks and
letting fly stunning volley of choice
oaths, ordered him to take bis men ont
of the grove. Brooks smiled kind CT
sweet smile as be glanced over his men,
and said, "Oh, drive 'em out; d-n 1t,
drive 'cm out yourself" Hancock
looked at the Vermont boys and con.
cluded not to drive them. He rode
away peppering the air of Virginia
with superb swear words, and his brig
ade encamped in the burning sunshine.
Hancock always disliked the Vermont
soldiers after that, and the latter cor.
daily reciprocated the feeling. 1t is not
probable that they have so far forgotten
it that many of them wiz now vote fol-
him.

TO go thus directly counts 81 to the IDEAS
on which alone free Pud independent
republic can safely rest, marks him
either as a toady TO lick the shoes Of his
superior race" of the South, or as a
man whose mental structure has been
wofully perverted IN some ps'ts of its
development. Ills great teents and
culture can only intensity this feeling
against bin. So long as Mr.. Phelps
confined himself to private life there
was no call for any one - express pub
licly their disgust at the senseless folly
of his political opinions, but since he
aspires to become the ruler of state OF
that North which he has always affect
ed to look down upon, there is no &C.
casion TO handle him tenderly. The
frecmen of Vermont do not forget that
Mr.. Phelps has always been one of The
worst of the pestiferous brood OF
doughfaces and copperheads which
has infested the! North, aud we look
to see their opinion of him expressed in
the heaviest majority against him ever
registered in the state. If Mr.. Phelps
seeks political prefcrment, let him be-
take himself to bis beloved South
among the brutalized slave-drivers
bull-dozers and white lesguers, and see
what they would do for man whom
they would consider traitor to biz
own state. r....-

POLITICAL NOTES.

Gen. Fitzpatrick is strongly talked oil
as the republican candidate for govern
or Of New Jersey.
The talk of the oil affair in Hancock
case Sits right down TO the mere mat.
Ter of the use of his name. And that is
what his candidacy sits down to, also.
Hartford Courant.
AT the organization of tho Garfield
and Arthur club at New Albany, Ind,
on Wednesday, nine men, who have
hitherto acted with the Democratic par
ty, signed the roll.
The Republican party will be glad to
know that Vice-President Wheeler, az
ter his summer vacation, will take an
active part in the canvass in this State.
Mr.. Wheeler is sound, eloquent and
convincing speaker.
A dispatch from st. Adams declares
that the greenbackers in Vermont have
no organization worth mentioning, and
will constitute no factor of importance
in the campaign. Thew have made no
progress, but refrigerated, and the ma
iority of them are expected to vote the
republican ticket.
Democratic editors who are buster
ing about what the army would do in
case of disagreement between Gen.
Hancock and the powers at Washington
are making fools of themselves and
helping the republicans amazingly

OF course the Springfield Republican
thinks that the Democratic candidate
for governor of Vermont is far superior
In every respect to the Republican can
didate, Colonel Farnham. That Mr..
Phelps has had larger experience at
the bar, and has higher reputation as
a lawyer, is conceded, but it should be
borne in mind that Colonel Farnham
gave up his legal practice and legal
studies for four of the best years of his
life to serve in the army, lie is, how
ever, the leader of the bar in his coun-
ty, and is regarded as a sound and able
lawyer. But aside from this, Colonel
Farnham is In no respect inferior to any
man in the state of Vermont. He has
had legislative experience, and has held
important trusts, and is known as an
honorable, honest and capable man.
Vermont has not for many years had
an ADLER man in the chair of governor,
and where both are known, his friends
have no reason for shrinking from a
comparison between him and his
worthy Democratic opponent. [St.
