Arkansas went 10000 democratic
last Tuesday, and Vermont rolled up a
republican majority the next day of 90
600. The republicans are growing ter
ribly over Vermont, but say nothing
about Rackensack. If half the money
had been spent there by the democrats
that was expended by the republicans in
Vermont, the majority might have been
increased to $4,000. Or 100, 600 for that
matter. The democrats made no sort
of effort in Vermont. wisely preierring
to concentrate their efforts on doubtful
states. Mr.. b. b. Smalley, the Yer.
mont member of the national democrat
lc committee, makes the following dis.
patch received by him from headquar.
ters in that state, public:-:The latest
returns show a handsome democratic
increase in vote, and the republican,
majority will be less that in 1876. The
first 80 towns increased the republican
majority of 1876. 800; ITO towns cut tina,
down to 400; $50 cut it down to SO
which the remaining towns will more
than take off. They spent Tens of thou
sands OF dollars. The democrats hat
no money. The republicans had thu
pressure and were despotic. 1t is
