" We're All Right

When Sheridan rode " from Win
chester town" into the midst of the
rout at Cedar Creek, he discerned
amidst the terror-stricken masses around
him compact body of troops that had
not yielded to the panic, but was stub
bornly resisting the onslaught of
the confederates. "What troops are
these?" demanded the raging COM
mander. " The Sixth Corps, the old
Vermont Brigade" was the answer
We're all rightIn flashed from the
treasured general, "we'll lick 'em out
of their boots before night, by God"
The chivalrous trooper was not profane.
1t was only burst of patriotic rapture.
His confidence was not misplaced.
Around the Vermont Brigade the panic
stricken army rallied and achieved a
victory that has become the glory of
history and song.
Four years ago the confederate forces
again came to the front with Grover
Cleveland instead of Robert E. Lee in
the saddle, and Roger @. Mills instead
of Jubal Early, his lieutenant. The
e h. lo i
sinew of the national prosperity, were
made the object of a dashing assault
The banner of the Golden Club was
entwined with the stars and bars.
Panic was in the air. The farmer, the
artisan, the manufacturer, every class,
was appalled, by the audacity of the as
sault. Vermont was again the rock of
the national defence. She was APP
pealed to to stay the fiery onset of the
allied hosts of free-trade. She an
swered the appeal yesterday, and 10000
strong, her cohorts swept into action.
The magnificentspectacle treasures the
national heart. The tide of battle is
turned. "We're all right" millions
of patriotic citizens, North, East and
West-and South, too-are repeating
to-day, "we'll lick the free-trade rab-
BILE out of their boots in November"
And the God of political hosts, as well
as armed battalions, is fighting on the
side of country and home in this civic
as he did aforetime in the martial strife.
The lamente1 Sedgewick's famous or
der when the eXigencies of war de-
manded rapid marching is also proud
part of Vermont's heritage of military
fame. The characteristics of Vermont
ers are the same in war or peace.
They take into war the qualities they
display in peace; in peace they ex-
hibit the traits that make them in war
the hope of friends, the terror of foes.
Never were these characteristics more
signally displayed than in the political
canvass just closed and in the magnifi-
cent result achieved yesterday. The
states of the Union have" put the YER
monters at the head of the column. :"
Now if they intend to keep everything
well closed up" they must not forget
that they are behind a body of men of
whom a Union commander, competent
to Judge, said; "They were long of
limb, they could outmarch the army
and they were the best fighters in the
known world" And, as we have said,
in peace Vermonters exhibit the traits
that made them peerless fighters in
battle, and on the march earned them
the sobriquet of foot cavalry" So
if Maine, which comes next, and the
states that follow in November, de-
sire to keep in sight of the head of the
column, they must take no laggard
pace.

By the time his visit will have been con-

Chinese treaty into shape that Will
make it something better than Mr..
Bayard's blind but good naturel effort
was able to accomplish. The bogus
exclusion Of The Bayard treaty has been
made real by TIE Inclusion in the pro
hibited cl es Of "all Chinese not now

tiscete- Or no,."
This will cut Off the fabeas corpus

of the Sawyer act Il is hardly poss.
ible that Judg Sawyer would willfu "
overthrow such provision as that
quoted. If we may believe his own
words, his experiment in iegielalng
for the admission of Chinese has not
been so satisfactory TO himsels that he
would desire to repeat it. Judge Hoff.
man, we know, is thoroughly disgusted
with the Chinese business. and If the

into his court, he will make no attempt
to modify the law of Congress. In
such case the vell-known pm, t;ce Of
the federal courts in standing by each
orther or any proposition will serve
The people in good stead.
The main objection to the Bayard
treaty. we consider. has been met by
reaction of the Senate. As ii is said
to be agreed to by the Chinese Minis
ter, IN view of the clause appropriatig
quarter of a million dollars for IN
demnity for outrages, there will prob
ably be no objection 10 it. The coun
try may consider itself well off to get
a. good treaty at that price.
