AH Hail Vermont I
Thb first engagement of the great battle of
1868 bu been fought. The enooanter was
known to both of the opposing foroea not to
be final or dVistre, bat to be a precursor of
the great result. It wa not bo mach because
of the aotnal fruits of a victory, bat because
Of the effect It would have on the spirit of the
armies, that each strove bo earnestly to gain
an advantage. No Btone was left unturned
to gain a triumph. No step untaken. The
result has been a glorious Republican victory.
At ever point we have gained on oar already
immense majority. From reliable aoooants
the increase oannot fall short of 8000, and will
prolably reaoh as high as ten thousand gain.
It ia better than we dared to hope. It is a
Waterloo.
The Democracy never anticipated any such
result. They thought, of course, that we
Would oarry Vermont, but such glorious gains
Were unexpected. The effect of this election
will be marked and tremendous. It will do
infinite good. There are a host of waverers
Who watch whioh Bide the tide is taking. To
day there oan be no doubt. The cloud in the
East, the size of a man's hand, will overspread
all the Union in November. On our first
page to-day will be found a detailed account of
our great viotory. The particulars only go to
inorease our triumph. Ilow the voice of Ver
mont ia listened to, and the signifioanje it
bears, is shown by the statements of the
different New York journals, the artioles from
Which will be found elsewhere. It is reoeived
by the Unionists with joy, bat with deepest
dejection by the sympathizers with a new
rebellion. Already do (similar symptoms
come to us from Delaware. Wilmington
gives a gain of one hundred and thirty Repub
lican votes. Why, if things continue thus
bright even the "Blue lien's Chickens" oan
be redeemed.
Southern Financiering.
It was an axiom of the old abolitionists
that the Demooratio party had its head in the
South and its tail in the North, and there are
many indications that even the mighty
ohangeB of the war have not destroyed the
ancient habit of Demooratio subservienoy to
Southern leaders. 1 he candidates of the New
York Convention received their most sincere
applanse in the "Rebel yell" which rent the
air when the favorites of the Confederacy be
came the standard-bearers of the lost cause;
and the most important clause in the platform
was dictated by Wade Hampton, in the inte
rests of South Carolina nulliflerg and seces
Bionists. Nothing is clearer than that a Demo
oratio triumph means a Rebel triumph, and
that it would restore to power over the whole
nation the men who failed so lamentably in
their effort to establish a rival and hostile gov
ernment at Richmond.
It has been the faBhion to laud the wisdom
of the old pro-slavery oligarchs, and it eannot
be denied that they were wonderfully bold
and successful politicians, but as a class they
were destitute of all the higher attributes of
statesmanship. If this nation should, by any
unfortunate accident, again fall under their
rule, we tremble for its destiny. . They would
not only seek to accomplish their avowed pur
pose of overthrowing the reconstruction policy
of Congress, but they would give free reins to
their old feeliDg of hatred for the North and
Northern interests, and inspired by the worst
passions, they would adopt the most desperate
means to achieve evil ends. The joint impulse
of their folly and their fury would inevitably
destroy the credit of the United States Govern
ment, and by this destruction they would
spread finanoial ruin throughout the bind.
If the people of the United States,
especially those who possess real conservative
leanings, could fully understand the natural
fruits , of Demooratio suooess, it would be
utterly impossible for Seymour and Blair to
oarry a single State which was ever imbued
With loyal feeling. The assault upon the
Credit of the Government made by Buchanan's
traitorous Cabinet officers, was one of the moat
important preliminary steps taken to facilitate
the organization of the Rebellion, and if the
bonds issued to prosecute the late war are
dishonored, the Rebels will be relnsplred with
a hope of renewing their Confederacy by the
impossibility of the nation acquiring the
means to orush a second glgantio conspiracy.
Considering that Demooratio ascendanoy means,
essentially, Southern ascendanoy, the nation
would have good cause to fear the destruction of
its credit, in the event of the eleotlon of Sey
mour and Blair, from the blunders of Southern
Statesmen even if they were not antagonistic
to the national debt. With all their regard
for the Confederacy, these wlseaores utterly
destroyed its credit by nnwiae legislation.
One of their expedients at a crittoal period was
to tax bonds one hundred per cent, to force the
holders to exchange them for a new loan, and
from that moment they were sever able to
obtain, voluntarily, a dollar from the victims
of their double dishonesty. With these men
in power at Washington, affiliated with North
ern Demooratio followers of Pendleton's plun
dering t'hiloaopby, the nation would soon be
bankrupt, and misery and misfortune prevail.
A recent Southern argument against the
eleotlon of General Grant has struok us as
being rather Bingular and unexpected. It is
urged at ooDPl'leraVe length that a soldier Is
vsattcd by his calling, experience, aul wuoie
education for the administration of affairs,
and that a professional soldier oannot be
politio, peaceful, and lnolined to oouoiliatlon.
Considering that the nation was established
under Washington, whose foremost claim to
the station had been won on the battle-flell,
and that General Jackson's military training
and roldierly disposition have always been
esteemed as a special means by which thx
Government was strengthened, . it Is an argu
ment as novel as it is weak the "last ditoh"
of Southern logio.
Newspapers
One of our New Yoik contemporaries has been
replying to the strictures of a reverend gentle
man of Baltimore, who appears to have de
nounced newspapers generally for their publi
cation of what he deems objeotionable matter,
such as the announcement of murders, sedao
tion cases, etc etc As the answer of oar
New York friends is to the point, and as we
believe conclusive, we shall not go over the
gronnd traversed by them, bat prefer instead
of availing ourselves of a chanoe to say a few
words, or rather of enlarging on the theme
broached by our New York brethren, and
which, perhaps, has rather been negleoted
One word as to the sweeping charges made by
the Baltimore gentleman; his charge is any
way too sweeping. All sweeping charges mo3t
commonly defeat themselves. We hare thus
generalized onr answer.
Now for our part of this subjeot:
What we would say about newspapers, is
that many people are too apt to overlook the
amount of information they receive from stub,
sonrces. On all subjects we sir on all sub
jects for a newspaper writer is compelled at
one time and another, to embody the ourrent
news of the day political, biographical, sta
tistical, even scientific lie is expected to
give the latest information on these subjects,
and that, too, in a space necessarily restricted.
We have no hesitation in saying that very fre
quently as much knowledge is compressed in
some newspaper articles as cAi be lound in
magazines. Let ns not be misunderstood. It
Is, of course, not to be expected as a general
thing that the writer confined to a column, or
perhaps little more, can condense as muoh in
that email space as the same writer might
occupy in the pages of a magazine, where he can
spread his thoughts, digressions, and illustra
tions over one, five, or ten pages; but the very
nature of his position forces him into giving
all the information that is possible in so small
a space, so that although digression and epl
sodical matter is frequently Impossible, yet
readers benefit thereby in getting the subject
before them in a manner which, if the writer
understands his business, gives them a great
deal without there being wanting that variety
of articles on other subjects that all readers
demand. We would adduce in support of our
position the fact that articles from the London
Times have been collected and deemed worthy
of publication In book form. Consplonous
among such pieces that ogcur to us at the
present moment is also the description of King
Victor Emmanuel's entrance into Venice, pub
lished in the New York Tribune, the very
paper that . replied so well to the general de
nouncer of newspapers. Such a desoriptive
letter would grace any magazine.
The facility for condensation to whioh we
have adverted is not habitual even with many
distinguished for scholarship. The late El
ward Everett is a notable instanoe. One of
the ablest of American scholars, our readers
will remember that scarcely a more deplorable
failure ever was known than the series of arti
cles contributed by him to a New York jour
nal. It was not from want of learning, but of
the art of adapting that learning for everyday
use. Many a writer with not one-tenth part
of Mr. Everett's abilities could surpass him at
this description of writing. It is a peouliar
department of literature. It is not all
great writers who excel in many
branches. Mr. Fresoott oould, as we
all know, write a good history, but not a
good essay. Certainly not good in the sense
we apply that word to suoh essayists as
Jeffrey, Rev. Sidney Smith, Maoaulay, or Ste
phens. The late Mr. Coleridge did write artioles
for the London Morning Herald, so did the
late Mr. Sterling for the Timet. Sir Robert Peel
occasionally, it is said, worte artioles for the
same journal: M. Disraeli is said to have
written such artioles in the early part of his
career. French newspaper writers attained
high posts. Thiers, Gnizot, Armand Carroll,
Bainte Beauve, and a host of others
might be mentioned. When, therefore, the
increasing task of chronioling daily events is
regularly looked for, it should occasion no
surprise if, in the hurry incidental to so many
matters, some particular one should fail to be
treated with the fulness and space of whioh it
is deserving, and, consequently, it is not ask
ing too muoh on our part for a little forbear
ance for suoh an occasional short-ooming.
Thb Dbmocbatb lavish much pathos upon
General Grant's alleged refusal to ezoh&nge
the Confederate prisoners, who had been well
fed and well oared for in the North, on equal
termB for the starved and dying victims of
Southern cruelty. We suppose the Tories of
the Revolution made just as thrilling appeals
to the feelings of the people against General
Washington when he wisely took the same
course with General Howe in regard Jto the
Continental troops, who had been crowded
into the filthy prison-ships to starve and freeze.
These terrible dens were formerly compared
to the Blaok Hole of Caloutta as an Instanoe
of extreme cruelty and suffering, but we in
these later days have a stronger simile waen
we Bhudderingly and loathlngly oompare those
dismantled bulks and their dying inmates
with Libby Prison and its suffering crowds.
