THE NATIONAL COMMITTEE.
xrTr.TioN IN vgRMONT-RESULT or COLONEL
uooKEg's VISIT ENTHUSIASTIC MEETINGS -
VIOLENCE IN ALABAMA.
Colonel Hooker. assistant secretary of the Re
onbllcan National Committee. returned to the CITY
Yesterday from Vermont He las visited con-
siderable part of the State He reports that there
has been no such enthusiasm among the Republicans
since the campaign of 1860 The voters are organz-
ing in advance of the leaders. The Republican
meetings are all largely attended, while the Demo-
cratic meetings are exactly the reverse The
Democratic speakers lack arguments, too. They
seem to be unable to throw any spirit into their
work. In Colonel Hookers opinion Vermont will
give greater majority for the Republican ticket
than ever before. When the campaign was onened
by General Woodf0rd, at BrattebOro the State was
ripe for it, The people had organized, and every
thing was ready for a send-oif. There were meet
ings held simultaneously in various parts OF the
State. Senator EGmunds spoke night and day Tor
several weeks. At the same time Representative
IIorr of Michigan, delivering telling speeches.
Vice President Wheelers speech at II. Adams was
productive of much good. On August y senator
Logan opened at Rutland to an audience of 1000
people. Judge Poland is also speaking and dong
effective work Added to these are j. l.. Martin,
Speaker OF the Vermont House of Representatives,
Henry Ballard. Ex-Governor John Gregory Smith,
b. F. Flfeld, General W. w. Grant, candidate for
Congress Colonel Xii tredge Haskins, Colonel l.. X.
Fuller b. ID. Harris and many other local speakers
Mahon Chance, of Ohio. began a two weeks stump
ing tour in the State Tuesday at Arlington.
telegram WAS received last evening from Colonel
J.. K Fuller announcing that an enthusiastic meet
ing was held at South Londonderry, at which more
than 1000 people addressed by Ex-Governor
DorH I
Loveland Munson and others. A section of artillery
under the command of Colonel Fuller taken
thirtyeight miles from Bratteboro to fire a sa iute
on the occasion. South Londonderry is fifteen miles
from any railroad and il was deemed wondertnl
far outnumbering any political meeting ever before
held there. .
