- The Case gone to the Jury.
One week from today the American
people in their majesty and might are to
elect him whom they will have as their Hall.
which we trust will include
countrymen who are willing to listen re-
Spectfnlly to arguments candidly presented,
Chief Executive of affairs for the next four _
years. The argument is closed, the case
has gone to the jury,. Never in the whole'
history of American politics, has the decis-
ion been so constantly prognosticatcd before
the rendering of the verdict as now. Our ,
enemies confess defeat in advance. There
is not an intelligent, honest man among
them who does not admit the certainty of
Grant’s election. More than this, thousands
and tens of thousands of hitherto faithful
democrats are going to add their votes to
swell the volume of his majority. Last
week a monster meeting of such was held in
New York and the effect of such a demon-
stration made by the leading business men
of the metropolis of the Union cannot fail
of influential effect. And why should not
life longdcmocrats vote for Grant? Is he
not honest ; is he not patriotic ; doeshe not,
merit the nation’s gratitude? Moreover,
has he not been a lifelong democrat and
the only vote he ever gave, wasit not for
its candidates? The democracy of the coun-
try most assuredly would ,have nominated
him, if they could have been permitted and ,-
had held their convention first. That is, if
the loyal part of the party could have had‘
control. Indeed, the leading democratic
press of the Union urged him use propefl
candidate for their party. To—day there -
floats on 4th Avenue a banner erected a year
or more ago, by a club of New York Demo- ,
crats, with the inscription, '
ULYSSES S. GRANT, for President.
Then again, are not democrats just as .
much interested in the peace and business:
prosperity of the country as Republicans ?
Do they not sincerely desire the submission
of rebels to lawful authority and a cessation ‘
of the turmoils, rapine_and assassinations
going on all over the South. Well, think ‘
you that this is likely to occur with the tim-
id Seymour for President and the revolu-
tionary, rum-crazed Blair -for Vice Presi-
dent. Certainly they do not and that is the a
reason why the only question involved in
the present contest is the extent of Grant’s
majority.
The democracy had it in their power to
have won the contest, but lacked both the ‘
sagacity and patriotism to secure it. No '
one desired it more than Mr. Seymour him-
self. With himself as candidate he knew
the utter failure of the ticket, and when he
came to be weighed down with the madman,
Frank Blair, the despair of the poor man
found fitting relief in tears. But it. is no»;
too late to alter or amend. The orations of
Seymour, the bulletins of committees, equal-
ly with White House dispatches, Blair and
Wade Hampton’s ravings, all will go for ‘
nought, and unless it be to make their ship-
wreck more complete. So victory being
ours, let not a single voter fail to swell
its volume, and may God defend the right.

@“Brick Pomcroy’s special correspond-
ent at the Norivalk Hotel, tried hard to
create a spasm of hope over the result of
our Borough election. The truth Simply is,
as every democrat. knows, “the Dutch took
Holland,” as has been the case for years
past. It has been only needful that any
stranger should pass through our streets to
know which party has ruled the local affairs
of the Borough for years past. We do not
know a Republican who voted at all.
WIN are deeply pained to learn of the
death of E. J. Alvord, Esq, of Southport,
which resulted, after a brief illness, from
malignant dysentry. Mr. Alvord was a.
young attorney of more than ordinary mer-
it nnd promise. Beloved by all who knew
him, and giving most hopeful promise" of a
bright and honorable future, we know of few
young men in our state whose untimely do-
parturc could be so illy borne. Surely his

WThc White Boys of South N orwalk
marched up-town as far as the democratic
headquarters, on Monday night last, taking
their up town friends and the public gener-
ally a little by surprise. The legions of Me-
Clellan, however, rallied, lighted their torch-
es and marched back with their brethren,
not venturing a march up-town. On Thurs-
day night the legions again assembled and
marched to Winnipank, where several
houses were illuminated in their honor, and
where they were liberally served with re-
freshments at the expense of two of our on-
thusiastic young “conservatives,” who rode
up in a private carriage while the boys were
“‘tramp, tramp, tramping',” on foot, and who
subsequently addressed the assembled lo-
gions in a few brief and eloquent remarks.

ANOTHER HORSE STOLEN—A dark bay
horse together with rockaway carriage, har-

from the premises of Bundle & Co., Winni-

the next victim? Isn’t it about time for the
authorities to be empowered to offer heavy
rewards for the capture of horse thieves, and,
then on convictiongo back to first princi—I

wheels taken off of his buggy and, together

FRAUDULENT NATURALIZATION.—It is es-
timated that twenty thousand fraudulent
naturalization papers have been issued in
New York. They are sent in packages to
all parts of the State. They appear to be
made out in regular form, signed by the
Clerk of the Court and stamped with the
Court Seal, but the place for the insertion of
the name of the person is left blank, so that
any name whatever can be written therein.
As the Courts from which these papers are
issued have democratic judges and clerks, as
the Court Seal is in keeping of democrats,
and these fraudulent papers are all found in
the possession of democrats, and as they are
pused to make new democratic ,voters, that
party cannot deny that the whole business,
from beginning to end, is a democratic
fraud. Arrests have been made. '
~————~—.—v.p—-.—-———~
WThat gallant cavalry raider, General
Kilpatrick, uses words as well as he does
bullets. In his speech to his comrades at
Philadelphia he thus terscly answers the
question : “Who have we to oppose us?”
The same men who opposed us during the
rebellion, both in the south and at the north.
Who are these men at the south who have
joined hands with the democracy of the
north ? Why, Robert Ould, who will be re-
mcmbered by many here present who were
confined as prisoners in the rebel pens. He
is the man who, on opening many of the
boxes sent south 'by your loving mothers,
said he thought the articles too highly sea-
soncd for men of shdentary habits. Then
there is Wade Hampton, who said to me that
hc would rather his arms should wither than
live with the mudsz'lls of the North, and that
he hoped lo lz't‘c to apply the torch to every
northern homo. Ho occupied afront seat at
thc New York Contention. Then there is
Ex-Govcrnor Vance of North Carolina, the
man who addressed his troops with the re-
mark that he wantcd them to fill hell so full
of Yankees that their heels would stick out
of the third story windows. He and Wade
Hampton had gone into the guerrilla busi-
ness, but a ride of 130 miles on an old mule
which I gave him had the effect of dissolv-
ing that partnership. Then there is Forrest,
the butcher, who surrounded a garrison of
four hundred men with a force ten times as
strong, and, under cover of a flag of truce,
marched his force to the rear and murdered
nearly all of the garrison. He buried dead
and alive in the same ditch, and nailed ne-
grocs to houses and fences and there burned
them. These are the men who are opposing
us.
A Slate House.
A correspondent describes a now] house
recently built at Brownsville, Me. :
“This house is not only Shingled but is
clapboarded with slate. It is a slate edifice,
fireproof and indestructible. The slates are
put on to the boarding of the walls with on-
ly paper between. They are in form of seg-
ments of a circle overlapping each other,
and have a very ornamental effect. The
natural color of the slate is pleasing to the
eye, and no paint is needed and if it were,
the slate would furnish it, for when ground
it makes an excellent paint,which Mr. Spar-
row has used on his barn with good effect.
The whole establishment is elegant in ap-
pearance, and shows what can be done with
native materials. The front steps are of
beautiful slabs of slate; the sinks, mantels,
shelves, are of Slate ; the woodwork is of
brown ash, a native wood, which mades a
handsome finish. In short, this is a. real
state-of-Mainc house, and shows the wealth
of her resources- The slate costs little if
any more than clapboards. When the rail-
road bringsthis material to us, slate houses
must become fashionable.

The Union Pacific.
We are reminded anew of the extent and
progress of the Union Pacific Railroad by
the receipt of a copy of a pamphlet just is-
sued by the Company, containing the Treas-
urer’s report for the year ending June 30,
1868, and many other matters of interest
connected with this great enterprise. The
Treasurer’s report, by the way, shows that
the earnings for the year reached the enor-
mous aggregate of $4,245,030.7, while the ex-
penses were but $2,684,757.14, leaving a net
balance of $1,561,283.59, upon an average
distance of 472 miles, These figures must be
entirely satisfactory to the holders of the
Company’s Bonds, thcnet earnings being
very largely in excess of the interest upon
those liabilities.
The Company's pamphlet is the hand-
somest business document we have seen is-
sued by any corporation. An accurate mil-p
ofthe Union Pacific and its relation to all
parts ofthe country, fully enables one to see
its importance as a national work. The
“Character of the Work” is an important
chapter, snswcring’m detail, by the testi-
mony of many intelligent examiners, the
question, “is the road well built ‘2" All this
evidence—quotations being given from more
than a score of writers—goes to show the
road to be thoroughly built and well man-
aged. A chapter upon “The Saving and
Profit to the Government,” gives facts and
figures from ofiicial sourcs at Washington,
showing that Government saved almost two
million dollars in the year 1867, by having
its freight upon this route transported by'
this railroad rather than by wagons, as for-
merly. The Treasurer’s report follows, to
which we have alluded, and the pamphlet
closes with remarks upon the value of the
Company’s Bonds, which are a First Mort-
gage upon the entire line, and so amply
secured that, paying as they do six per cent
gold interest, they must be classed among the
safest and most profitable securities. The
intimation is given, in the Company’s adver-
tisement, that the period during which thoao
Bonds can be obtained at the present rate
may be short, as it is not unlikely that all
which remain unsold may be taken by some
combination of capitalists and withdrawn
from the market, except at such a premium
as the holders might see fit to demand. The
pamphlet is superbly printed, numerous
characteristic vigfiettes, initial letters and
tail-pieces making it an attractive illustrated
work. Copies of the pamphlet may be ob-
tained free, of any of the Company’s agents
