Vermont voted on Monday, tho 4th
Inst., for btato officers. The Itepubli
can candidates were, of courso, auo-
cossiul, as it was known by everybody
that they would be, but the result is
not gratifying to Jtepublitans, The
Radical majority Is 23,650, being a loss
on the vote of 1872 of 2,000. The same
percentage of I)cmo rstic gains else
where will give Tilden every debat ,

HACK TO
Ono tif tho fow Liberals in Now York
who have made up their minds to voto
for Hayes uud Wheeler, has lutcly writ
ten a lettor tho Hayes Liberals al
ways tlo wi ito letters so as to lot tho
world know that there is ono more
in which ho given his reasons for his
action. I hey may bo easily summed
up in Ibis one of his remarks : 'It is
better to avoid inaladtniuistratioii than
to exposo it." It is well that tho Lib
erals tuko some method of explaining
their action in resolving to go back to
tho party which thoy foreswore four
years ago, and which has grown worso,
not hotter, in the nieantimo, lor their
conduct cerlninly stands in need of ex
planation, but so frank and ingenious
a statement as this was scarcely looked
for. "Hotter to avoid maladministra
tion thnn to exposo it." In other words,
a mild reclitudo is to bo preferred to a
vigorous honesty ; it man who keeps
himself from stealing nnd steers clear
of mistakes is moro to bo trusted than
the man who is not only honest him
self, but compels others to bo honest;
a man, who so long ns he can show an
administration of his own free from the
taint ot 1'rmid, is content to preserve a
culm neutrality between tux-payers
and thieves, is to bo preferred to a man
who has boldly madu war upon thioves
wherever lie bus found them, and has
pursued them oven into tho places of
refugo of his own party as in thoso of
tho othorl "Bettor to avoid malad
ministration than to expose it." With
what plcasuro tbe rogues must accept
this new dictum of tho Liberal fuitb !
If there Is ono thiug the Kings disliko,
it is being oxposed. Tho Twocd Iting
was greatly opposed to being exposed
by Mr. Tilden, and bo was tho Canal
Ring when Mr. Tilden bad become
Governor. Mr. Tilden, however, did
stop to consider what might be "bottor'
than exposing maladministration, llo
saw what his duty was, and went
ahead and did it, like a brave and true
man. Ho did not hesitato a moment,
any more thnn ho will hesitato whon
it becomos his duty, as President of:
tho United Stutos, to drive the money
changers from our tomplo at Washing.
ton and bring back to its proper phase
what has become, a den of thieves.
No doubt tho Rings then will think
that almost anything is bolter than to
"exposo maladministration." The
Whisky Ring, tho Grant Ring, the Bui
knap Ring, tho Rubcock, Shcpbord,
Delano, Williams, Robeson, and all tho
other countless rings will bo of that
same opinion.
This Liberal's advico would have
been moro judicious if it had been in
tho passivo. Ho ought to have said,
"It is better to avoid maladministra
tion than to bo exposed in it." And
be ought to have givon his advico eight
-cars ngo. It is too lato for President
Grant, and President Tilden won't need
it. .
Tin Radical Alahn. Thoso Radi
cal editors and stumpers, who neither
fear God or regard man, aro terribly
alarmed about paying "tho rebel debt"
and tho owners for their slaves, should
the Democrats get control ot the Gov
ernment. Thoso two things are just
as impossible as it is for a man to at
tempt to walk on his head from Clear
field to the Centennial grounds. Thoso
questions aro settled in tho Constitu
tion, nnd the man who uses this "scare
crow" is cither a knnvo or a fool, and
should bo called ofT at onco. Let us
sea what the Constitution says upon
tbeso points.
Articli 14, Section 4 of the Consti
tution roads as follows :
"lite validity of the public (hit of the
United Stutei, authorized bu law, includ
ing debts incurred for payment of pensions
and bounties for services in suppressing
insurrection or rebellion, shall not bk
questioned. Hut neither the United
States, nor any State, shall assume or pay
any debt or obligation incurred in aid or
INBl RltECTION OR REBELLION AQAINST
the united states, or any claim for the
loss or emancipation of any slave; but
all tuch debts, obligations and claims
snau oe Held illeoal and void.
It must bo clear to the mind of every
honest man that this provision ot the
Constitution forever disposes of the
question of compensation for slaves or
tho payment of tho Confedcrnto debt,
and nobody but a very cheap ileum-
goguo will resort to this chct.p dodge,
in the presence of intelligent beings.
Ueab Ye Him. Col. Con. Maguiro.
who is now Bcrving a sentenco of six
months in tho St. Louis county jail lor
connection with the whisky frauds,
publisbos a card In tho Evening Vis
patch corroding somo statements ro-
contly mado in tho public prints, as to
when his sentence will expire. Ho
closes as follows: "Whon 1 again have
tho privilego of meeting my fellow
citiiens, which will bo before the clec
lion, I shall have a lilllo vindicating to
do, and I may bo able to show that
soma of our would-bo Republican lead
ers, engaged now in preaching moral
roform, ought to have striped suits on,
and with their heads shaved ho serv
ing out a term in tlio Missouri l'oni
lontiary." Two weeks ago wo referred to tho
organisation of a Hayes and Wheeler
Club in this pluco, and becauso we told
the truth about it tho editor of tho
Journal waxes wroth, and talks about
Tom I'oppor and tho infernal regions
in a manner that is shockingly familiar.
Wo aro satisfied that tho editor of the
Journal should talk so, as we neither
know an individual by that name, nor
understand anything about tho inside
workings of tho other place The
Uuyositcs never could bear to henr the
truth.

Hayes is unfortunate in his friends

There will not bo quito so much pub

LIBERAL GONE

HUT FEW SAVED.
Wo believe that is scriptural. That
tho Radical party is handled by cor
rupt men, is equally as truthful. Oc-
casiouully, howovor, some ono of them
becomes conscience-stricken, and tells
tho truth, and then leaves tho witness
sttind. Hon. Geo. F. Hour has boon a
Radical Congressman for many years,
but gives notice that ho will not bo a
candidate again. In his recent speech
boforo tho impeachment Court, he
volunteered tho following biblo truth:
"I huvo seen tlvo judges of a high
court (it tlie United Stutus driven from
oflico bv threats of impeachment tor
corruption or maladministration. 1
bave lieuru luo taunt lrom irionuiess
lips, that when tho United States pre

was finished, I havo seen our national
triumph and exulting ttirnod to bitter
ness and shatno by tho unanimous re
ports ol thrco Comluittoos of Congross,
two of the Ilotiso nnd ono hero, that
every step of that mighty enterprise
had boon tnkon in lruud. I nave heard
in tho highest places tho sbameloss
doctrine avowed by men grown old in
public oflico that tho truo way by
which power should be earned in the
republic, created for tho service, and
tho truo end for which it should be
used when gained, is tho promotion of
selfish ambition and tho gratification
of personal rovongo. 1 havo hoard
that suspicion haunts the footsteps of
the trusted companions of tho 1 resi
dent. Thoso things havo passed into
History.
This goncral rehearsal of the orimos
committod nndor Grant A Co. will sot
tlo Hoar's promotion. Ho has uttered
too much truth.
The Poor Canine. Cumoron's dog,
Forney, has sot up a new bark, lie
has been cowhided by his old master
lately. He howls so pi Icon sly. Ho has
evidently boon kicked, cuffed, cropped
and bob-tailed, or ha would not take
on so awfully and lick the hand that
cuffs him. Tho editor of tho Philadel
phia Times ovidently sympathizes with
tho poor "purp." He saya :
Col. Fornoy's Centennial dream, wo
regret to say, has bocome a horrible
nightmare. Ho is continually haunted
uy the ghost ot the lato I ontcrteraey,
and tho shadowy forms of Jeff Davis,
Vallandingham, the draft rioters and
other forgotton objocts of terror flit
over before his eyes. I ho spoech
which Col. Fornoy recently delivered
to his fellow-citizens ot the Twenty
ninth ward, is so fearful and wonder
ful in its conception, so blood-curdling
in the awful pictures it vividly presents,
that wo scorn in reading it to livo over
again the terrible days ot tho Inquisi
tion, tho Wars ot Roses, the French
Revolution, or some other period of
unmitigated norror, and wo instinctivo
ly cry out for "moro troops." Things
are evidently in a vory bad way, and
there ran bo no doubt that in the
event of Tildcn's election wo shall all
be murdered in our beds according
o r orney.
Till SpEAKEnsniP. The 1'biladel
pbia Times, in alluding to the contest
for Speaker, to fill tho vacancy occa
sioned by tho death of Mr. Korr, when
Congress meets in December noxt,
snyj :
"Who will bo tho next Speaker?
Tho subject is already ugilatmg the
minus oi possible candidates, but it is
not liKcly that thoro will bo any can
vnss until alter eloetion. Ul the one
nal candidates Mr. Lamar has gone in
to the Sonalo, Mr. Cox has spoiled all
his chances nnd Mr. Randall scorns to
have cot ovor his itchinir for tho nlsco.
It is quito likely that Mr. Baylor, who
nas done moderately well sinco Mr.
Cox's deposition, wilt probably bo re
elected, for tho session is not likely to
oo long cnongii to induce any sharp
competition for tho place."
Tho New York Sun says: "Tho
ono sheep owned by tho Republican
candidate for President, and listed by
him in his return to tho tnx-gatheror,
is a living monument to his incapacity
as omnn of affuirs. Gov. Iluycssworo
in 18s 5 that his sheep was worth 85
In 1870 ho stilted under oath that this
animal was worth only 2. Now, ifi
Hayes so administered tho affairs of a
sheep that it depreciated in value sixty
per cent, in a single yoar, how many
yoars would it take him to bankrupt

A dispatch from Vigo, Spain, slates

A Philadelphia repeater was acci
tlcntly shot in a sciifllo to escape arrest

KXOX TOWXSJI1P CLUB.
H ew M illport, Pa., Sept. 7, '70.
.Editor IIkpublican : Ala meeting
held at this place on Saturday uveninir,
Sept. 2d, in the public school-houso, a
iinien and Hendricks Cluo was fully
organized, by electing Geo. lirlinrd,
Ksq., President ; Knos Bloom and G.
W. Bell, Vico Presidents; John Mo
Cracken, Treasurer ; H. J. Sloppy, He,
cording Secretary, and Isaac Mays,
Corresponding Socrotary. Kitty names
were placed on the roll at the organisa
tion. Tho meeting was one of the
most harmonious that baa ever been
held in the county. Addresses wore
delivered by the President, Vico Presl
dents, and others. Tho aieeting was
enthusiastic in its reformatory expres
sions, and you may look for a good re
port from Knox alter the general eloe
tion. 'lilden and Hondricks will, oi
courso, bo elected, and reform will be
tho next thing in order a boon
wished and looked for by Democrats
and honest liepublicnns alike, Thoro
aro a number of Republicans among us
that will positively not voto lor Hayes
and Wheeler j but whothor we can
persuade them lo vote with us remains
for tho future to decide. Thoy do not
like to jump too far at onco, but are
eager for a chango in the administra
tion. H. J. Sloppy, Soc'y.
Downriuht Stealino. J usl preced
ing tho final conference on the Locis-
lative, Kxocutive, and Judicial bill, tho
committees of the Senate and Houso.
substantially agreed upon all the details
and salaries to be reported. Nothing
remained but to put the bill in form, go
over tho work of the clerks, and sign
the report. When thoy camo together
for thoso concluding formalities, it was
discovered that a sum of ninoty thou
sand dollars had boon added to tho ap
propriations for the expenses of the
Senate, and of fifty thousand dollars
for the House, without the least notice
or authority. Sargent ot California
and Windom ot Minnesota, both job
bers in legislation and patronago, are
responsible lor this scurvy trick. The
House conferees refused to accept the
appropriation that bad boon smuggled
in lor their sido, as a bribe lo sanction
the lrnud. Under the terms of the
compromise each branch wus allowed
to fix tho number and compensation of
i in own omcors. in tun way the Stfn,
ate got 190,000 more than had been
agreed upon, which will be applied to
aecp senatorial sinecures on the pay
roll during the recess, and lor the em
ployment of an extra forco to aid the
Republican Committee at Washington
in the Presidential campaign. Eastern

Kx-Govvrnor Austin lllair, of Mich
igan, a Liberal .Republican of 1872, is
duily addressing enthusiastic multi
tudes in that State in lavor of Tildea
and Hendricks. Two years ago the
liepublicnns of Michigan repudiated
Zach. Chandler. Sinco then Grant and
tho Republican leaders bave shown
their contempt of that Judgment by
making Chandler Secretary ot the In
terior and Chairman ol the Republi
can National Kxccutivo Committee,
thus putting upon the peoplo of Mich
igan a doublo insult. This timo the
votors of Michigan moan to do their
work so effectually as to bury Chand
lurism forever.
Gov. Tildon did r.ot toll in his lottor
what ho thought of tho school qnostion,
or tho hot weather, or tho Sioux war,
or the dry spell, or tho Ccnlonnial Ex
hibition, or the exoessivo morlaility, or
the Hamburgh massacre, or the tramp

und beer saloons, shooting gulleries and
other parasites of tho hxhibition.
Hundreds of these unsightly structures
have uiieiiiaehod upon the gatos of the
Ceiileniiiul grounds, crowded closely
together. Tbo new town has been

to litku risks on account of their in

has long been l'eured took pluco on Hat
unlay ullcrnoon. About five o'clock
the cry of Hie was huurd, uud volumes
of stutiku uud flumes wure seun rising
from the midst ul' these structures in
Kim avenue, between Tischuur uud
Belmont. In uu incredibly short space
ol time un urea of two acres was cov
ered by roaring, crackling flames, nnd
tho streets were speedily tilled with
ono hundred thousand peoplu from the
Kxhibition und the hotel. At the
tilnbo und Triinscoiitlnonliil, tho first
just opposite tlio tire, tbo second int.
mediately adjoining, the greatest con
sternation prevailed among tho guests
and a rush was made tor tlio streets,
many horridly grubbing up their bag
gage, The llremen were speedily on
the grounds und did everything possi
blu to limit tho flames to tho triangu
Iur block ol ground between Elm and
lielmont avenues and lischner avenue,
lor it was utterly imK-issiblo to savo
even as much as a stick of furniture in
any shanty near whero tho flumet first
bruko out. In many cases oven tbo
occupants had barely time to escape
tho tlainos, and several were singed and
slightly burned.

impossible to give a noar estimate of
tho losses, but thoy will probable not
exceed jB,oo altogether.
LETTER FJiOM WOODLAND.
' WooiiLANb, Pa., Sept. 11, 1876.
Mr. Editor ? Perhaps a nolo from
this place, in regard to what is going
on In onr little villngo during thisCen
tennlal t'ear of our nations' history and
independence, would not bo out of
place. " :' i
: On Tnestlay evening; tho 5th Inst.,
tho Tilden and Hendricks Club of this
place mot in Varner's II nil, and the at
tendance was quite large. " After the
meeting bad been called to order by
tho President,' A brum Humphrey, B ,
wns Introduced, and delivered a well
timed and appropriate address on the
issues of tho tiny. During its delivery,
the speaker was many times hcartiiy
cheered by tho audience. After the
speaking, quite n mimlior of names
were added to the roll, and tbe meet
ing adjourned to meet on Tuesday eve
ning, Heptombcr 'M.
On Thursday evening, tho Hayes
and Wheeler Club had one of their
meetings, The meeting was called to
order by its President, who slated that
as Republicans never stole anything
or ever gotany thing unfairly, be would
like Uio tiiianca Committee to devise
means by which the expense of their
meetings could bo met .
Mr. Roland 1). Swooio, son of tbo
lato II. li. Swoopo, was then introduc
ed, and madu an awkward effort to say
something without saying it. ,
Jiow, Mr. Editor, if Republicans novur
steul anything, I, as a Democrat, would
liko to know what it dono with the
vast amount of rovenuo collected an
nually by them, and which should be
used towards paying tho national debt?
Tho debt is reduced but very littlo
from wbnt it was at tho closo of tho
war. And yet Republicans never steal I
One word before I closo. A great
many Republicans hereabout talk ol
voting for Cooiicr. But, fellow-Dem
ocrats, bo ware ol them. Thoy are only
trying to get you to voto for Cooper.
and thus tuko your vote from Tilden,
whilo they will voto lor Hayes, and
thus count two votes aguinst Tilden.
Beware of such fellows. To find out
bow sincere inch fellows are, you only
nood to say something against Hayes,
when they will immediately show
themselves in their true colors.
liospoctlully, Alexis.
Oluht they to be Tiiusriti Can
this party bo trusted any lontror T It
it possible that there should bo any re
vival of industry, of business, of pros
perity, if such a parly is continued in
power? Will they not pursuo in tho
future tho saino courso that thoy have
pursued in tho past1 Will they ro
duco tho public burdens? Will tbev
economize in tho public expenses'
Will they stop publio plunder? Not
at all. Tho wholo of the sossion ol
Congress has been merely a prolonged
effort on thoir part to resist tho re
forms and ccouomios on which tho
Democratic majority in the Uouso 61
HepresentativoB havo insisted, and to
iiiuiiituiii ine extravagance ana ine op
pnrtunites for dishonesty and official
