Ahout nifty towns to hear from They, suppose
viii only increase the vote not materially change the
result.


Il will be observed that the returns thus far are
incomplete, but the general result will not be much
varied by the returns yet to come IN. Now, one
OF the principal inferences to be drawn from these
returns thus far, is the extraordinary increase in
the abolition vote--a progressive increase COM
mencing IN the year 1910, and now numbering be-
tween five and SIX thousand in Vermont. During
the first years of this mo gement of the aboltionsts
the wings were most injured by the abstraction OF
voters; but at the present time, il appears that the
locoocos nave lost the greatest number, if to
Judge from the diminished vote which they have
polled. This breach in the ccofoco ranks by the
abolitionists, may be attributed to the operation of
the Texas question identified with the de-
mocracy and Mr.. Polk, and produced by the
foolish conduct Of the Bryant Clique of this city on
the same matter. If the same feeling ope-
rates with equal force in New York, and the other
New England States, il is possible that the wings
and locofocos may suffer equally, so as to involve
the general result in still greater doubt and uncer-
talnty than ever.


Another inference that may be drawn thus far
from the Vermont election is, that the wings are
coming out with great deal of excitement and
enthusiasm. The probability, indeed, is that if they
he able TO keep up the by their itinerant ora
tors and the application of sufficient quantity OF
the galvanic fluid in the shape of plenty of money,
they may be able to get up intense degree Of
feeling characterized the contest of 1910. In
that case, Mr.. Cay's prospects would certainly be-
come very brilliant, and whatever may be the COM
plexion OF the House of Representatives, Mr.. Clay
will have the best chances for the White Houses


At all events, as matters now stand in the north,
The chances that Mr.. Clay will be elected, and
that preponderance will be given to the democra-
tic party in the House of Representatives. This
singular and contradictory result will be effected by
the large manuiacturers-the large capitalists-and
the great commercial interests, who more in
favor Of the present state Of things as connected
with the currency and other matters, than oil mere
political change in the popular branch of the legis-
lature. Ii is certain that during the last few months
a very serious detection has taken place amongst
the wings connected with the monied interests
They very wisely in favor of the present state
OF things-against a United States Bank OF any
character rs calculated to interfere with their In
teresis with their stocks and projects, and great
many of the large manufacturers are probably Of
the same way of thinking. In fact,w we believe that
the cunency-the tarif-and the various other
measures which are now discussed before the coun-
try, more topics ofmere politicians and office
seekers on both sides, than of those who hold in
their hands the substantial interests of the country
In such state Of things we should not be at all
surprised to Mr.. Clay elected as being the best
man to preserve the foreign relations of the coun-
try intact, and at the same time House of Repre-
sentatives oi democratic character so to inter-
pose sufficient check to any undue action OF the
other branch OF the legislature of the Executive
itself


This would be singular result, but tits far from
being improbable The final returns from Vermont
and the results of other State elections WILL how
ever, aid US in coming TO conclusion.
