OGDENSBUKG & LAKE CHAMPLAIN.
While the details of the Ogdensburg &
Lake Champlain leases are still lacking, it is
stated that the income bondholders are to
have precisely the same chance at the earn
ings as heretofore, but that the Central YER
mont, in consideration Of guaranteeing the
interest upon the consols, is to have one-half
of whatever surplusioccurs after paying in
terest upon the incomes. That is to say, if
there should be surplus of 100000 after
paying interest upon the incomes, one-half
would go to the Central Vermont, and the
other half would be paid in dividends, of
which the Central Vermont would receive its
additional proportion with the other stock
holders

thought proper to make a no nination of
their own. Such a movement it was
argued would split the Republican vote,
and as a consequence Democrat might
be elected. The Democrat organs Of
the country of course harked on the
movement in order TO stir up as much
dissention as possible in the Republican
ranks. but the scheme did not work. The
all powerful advocate Of the principls.of
the Republican party, Blaine. led the van
to decisive victory. The Maine election
coming in advance Of the other congress

note to success in other States. 1t will
awaken and arouse the Republicans Of
the country to action, and assure them,
that victory awaits their party, ifthey
will but 90 forward to receive it.
This election is conclusive of
two things: In the first place il shows
the force and power of Mr.. Blaine,
the greatest statesman that the United
States to-day possesses, and second y
proves that the people are dissatisfied
with the Democratic management Of the
affairs of the country. The policy of
the present Democratic administration
was laid before the people with great
clearness and power by the press and
the stump orators, and they have judged
it well. Their verdict is, continued
success to the Republican principles,
and to the party who advocates and sup
