"There is good deal of talk about Yer
mont Why doesn't some reckless Democrat
get twenty dollar bill changed and buy up
enough votes in that hot-bed of ignorance to
give the State to the party of retrenchment
and reform 2"
The above is clipped from late issue of
the Atlanta (Ga.) Constitution, one of the
leading papers Of the South What do our
young men, especially those who will this
year cast their first vote, think about helping
to put the control of the government into the
hands of a solid South, which in its ignorance
and venom, holds and disseminates such
views about our staunch little State, whose
people, as whole, are the most intelligent
and incorruptible which the country affords

One minister, elder Ballou of Wilmington
having been found who did not hear Chas.
N. Davenports copporhead speech from the
Wilmington town house steps in September,
1864, we suppose it will be in order for us to
quote the testimony of one who did. The Rev.
d. Wells, now of wardsboro but who, in
1864, was settled over the Methodist church
in Wilmington, sends us word that he was
present and heard the speech, that The
PHOENIX report of it was correct, and that he
would like to sign the Wilmington certificate
to its genuineness. In this connection,
Charles, allow Grandmother to once more re-
mind you of that $500 reward" which was
to be paid on the production of "any reliable,
tangible evidence, etc.

The financial record of the United States,
during the past fifteen years, is without paral-
lei in any country, at any time in the worlds
history. During this period, which ends this
month, we have paid of sos, 900, 600 of our
public debt, and have made reduction in
our annual interest account of $7l, 425, 600.
Or, to state the same thing in another way,
the debt has been reduced by more than %
per cent. and the interest is now nearly 90
per cent less than it was fifteen years ago.
This wonderful exhibit, let it be remembered,
is the result of Republican financial manage
ment

A very large number of leading Republicans
attended the conference held at New York last
Friday. Ex-Gov. Jewell called the gathering
to order, and made brief address touching
its objects, and was followed by W. E. Chan
der of New Hampshire, Geo. b. Loring of
Massachusetts,, Gen. Logan of Illinois, W, W,
Hicks and ex-senator Conover of Florida,
John Cessna of Pennsylvania, Gov. Pinch

Sherman and ThurlOw Weed. The reports
presented were very encouraging, and some

1t was suggested by quiet Republican on
Saturday evening, when the Democrats were
putting out their wire banner, that the rea-
son why our opponents do not hang ont the
American flag as their campaign emblem, is
doubtless because very large part of their
party, only short time ago, amused them
selves for about four years by shooting at it,
and their highly sensitive feelings would be
deeply wounded if 1t were Haunted in their
faces too freely now. 1t is a noticeable fact
that the old stars and stripes are used very
sparingly by the Democrats throughout the
country, in this campaign.

Hon. George Nichols, chairman of the
Republican State Committee, made formal
proposition to Hiram Atkins, as chairman of
the Democratic State Committee, to meet
Gen. WOodford at either Montpelier, Bur-
lingtOn, or St. Adams, by any person or per-
sons he might designate as the representa-
tives of the Democratic party of Vermont, for
discussion of the issues of tho campaign, but
the proposition WAS one which Atkins didn't
see fit to accept 1t was one of those oft
recurring cases in the Democratic party where
discretion is the better part of valor.

Wade Hampton Waving the "BlOOiy
shirt"

shirt"
Let the veterans of Vermont in general,
and those of Brattleboro in particular, who, it
has been falsely claimed by copperhead sheets,
will vote for the Democratic nominees, read
and inv ardly digest the following from late
speech of ex-rebel General, now United States
Senator, Wade Hampton of South Carolina:
Consider what Lee and jackson would do
were they alive. These are tie same Irinci-
pies for trhieh Hey fought for four gears Re-
member the men who poured forth their life
blood on Virginia's soil, and do not abandon
them now. Remember that upon your vote
depends the success of the Democratic ticket. 4"
When Republican speakers or writers ven
ture TO say that the issues to-day between the
Republican party and the solid South are the
same they have ever been, they are said by
Democratic writers and speakers to be faunt-
ing the ''bloody shirt )" but here is "bloody
shirt" from the best authority on the other
side. Wade Hampton and men of his school
are as ready to destroy the Union of the States
as ever they were. had they the least chance
given them, and their return to power is
fraught with the greatest danger to the unity
of the republic. 1t has been denied by local
and other Democrats that Wade Hampton ever
made such a speech, but late number of the
Charleston Is. o. News and Courier contains
the speech, with the extract given above rer-
6dtim 6t Rterdtim.

There is loud call from oil quarters for
the names of those lone hundred old soldiers
of Bratteboro, all Republicans, who, it was
announced, with big flourish of trumpets,
would vote for Hancock. We know the DE-
Jdmer is in heap of trouble just now,
and ought not to be further worried unneo-
essarily but public curiosity is so great,
especially among old soldiers themselves, to
see the names of the zone hundred " and "all
Republicans" that it won't be put off any
longer Unless the Detamer comes to the
front in this matter without further delay,
We fear the public will begin to suspect that
it is in the habit of making statements not
strictly true, calamity that would touch its
tender sensibilties to the quick.

Gen. Garfield left New York at an early
hour last Saturday morning, en- route for his
home at Mentor, o. At all the large towns
on the line of the Erie railway he was greeted
by enthusiastic crowds, who thronged the sta

where he received 4 hearty and respectful

The Democratic candidate for Vice Presi-
dent owns and runs a national bank, of which
he is president. He therefore says nothing
against banks in his letter of acceptance. He
says, indeed, the Democrats will administer
the government in favor of ''the people" and
mot of corporations and privileged classes !"
but he does not consider national banks ''cor-
Porations," or bank presidents privileged
classes" Not at all banks and bank presi-
dents are ''the people" to whom he refers.

Pervade the columns of the Detamer last

suPposition that Grandmothers slipper has
accomplished its good and appointed work
But cheer up, Charlie dear this is what

and there's no use goin into doleful dumps
over it. Try to forget how it smarts, and
give us something or other which is lively to
help us out for the rest of the campaign.

Mr. BaIcstier ON the IIanc Ock.she rman
Letter.
To the Editors IF the Ph9Hi1:
Gentlemen If the unsound and tedious
letter which Gen. Hancock wrote to Gen.
Sherman, dated Dec. %, 1876, is the sole
foundation for Gen. Badly" Smith assertion
that his friend Hancock, either before or af-
ter the session of the Electoral Commission,
threatened 10 draw his sword for Tilden,
then the story in both its forms is either a
fabrication or mistake. As Gen. Smith is
a respectable man, | presume he was mislCd
like the distinguished army officer at Wash
ington quoted by the New York Times. In
my address at the town ball l followed the
version of the Times (the only one then
known to me- as to the date Of Hancock s
supposed threat but qualified my remarks by
using the words, lit seems to be settled ."
and IF II be substantially true Whether
the threat, If made, had related to the action
Of Congress of to that Of the Commission,
the principle would have been the same but
it now appears not TO have been made at all
and fully admit that like the rest of man
kind, was deceived by Badly Smith. Yet,
| have the satisfaction of knowing that | did
not attempt, as our unfortunate Democratic
brethren have done, to justify and applaud
the supposed threat Of Hancock in any shape
or form. The fact that these brethren have
committed themselves to an approval of the
threat as ante dating the Commission, EMIT
les them to our benevolent compassion and
pray crful solicitude.
zen. Hancock's letter, outside of much ir-
relevant verbage, seems principally intended
to support two of his Jack Bunsby "opin-
ions'-lst that Southern Republicans are
properly and constitutionally the wretched
victims OF their State authorities and not en-
titled to federal protection under any circum-
stances, although fully entitled to II liberal
allowance Of federal power and shot admins

rcc,ion. I'd, that in case of a failure to elect

out from the Democratic headquarters that
there is to be no bloodshed or bulldozing in

in two tents at Bangor, Oh Tuesday last.
L. II. Cove was ring-master Of the Green
back branch Of the show, with Fogg as
clown. Tabulator Foster performed some
ground and lofty tumbling on the money
question, and Fogg sat down on the rag
baby, and raised smile by declaring that
there would shortly be a set-to between
Imperialism and Democracy. Gen. Plais-
ted, the great lightning change artist, was
announced to run a losing race in Sep
TENDER next, and made a speech, telling
what he does not know about the ques-
tons of the day 1t was naturally quite
lengthy. The Democratic branch of the
circus was hardly more than q side show,
and furnished little in the way of enter
talnment, except the spectacle of such old
Democrats as Bion Bradbury eating crow.
The rum question so stirred up the ami
mails that the nenagerie was closed and
the Show broke up.
