What crumbs of comfort the Grantites can pick up from the returns fom the Green Mountain State, we are at a loss to imagine. Yet we see them busily making a pretense of finding crumbs where we see nothing but the bare floor. A New York contemporary thus tells how even the great historical feat of the Dutch tak ing Holland was not performed in Vermont; " The last election was held in 1870. Only 45,000 votes were cast,-and the Republican majority was a little over 21,000. This year the contest has been exceedingly ani mated; the total vote is probably' over 60,- 000; and the highest majority claimed by the Administration is 20,000. But to make a fair comparison we. mu6t go back from the Presidential year to :he List one, when the poll was over otJjOOO; a nd the Republi can majority was cW.OGO; . that is to say, wEuTihe'totsrvole "has" Increased 4,000 in four years, the Republican majority has fallen off G,0i)0.

Of the Grant electors- from Illi nois; in 1808, the following have declared for Greeley and Brown: GustavuB Koerner, Jam pr Hrnov. Thrmifts CI FVnt Samnpl f!

Alvin Hawkins, late of the Supreme Bench, Elector-at-Large.. Gen. t)on Carlos Buell, whose genius and bravery saved Grant from anni hilation at Shiloh, has declared, for Greeley. It is a singular fact that nearly every officer of prominence, says a Virginia paper, that served under Grant opposes his re-election. The Washington patriot says: The heartiest joke about that joke of jokes we beg to be excused for writing the word so otfteni but the whole Louisville Conven tion seems to be the jokiest of jokes is that Blanton Duncan, himself , not a delegate, but present by invitation on the Convention floor, should have delicately intimated to George Francis Train that he1 was not a del egate and could not be permitted to speak. The Grantites are bent on mis- chief in Arkansas. Pope county has their special aversion, it seems. The murders by Dodson and Hickbx, utterly unprovoked as they were, were the cause of the murder of Hickox a few days ago. : Tere was no occa sion to fear that any further breach of the peace would take place. But the Governor has, it appears, been overborne either by Sheriff Dodson or by the Clayton faction in Little Rock, and has sent a 6mall force to Pope county. Dodson has joined Gen. Up ham with three companies, and it needs little foresight to predict what he will do when finds himself in . a position to pay off old grudges under the protection of martial law.

Breckinridge replied that he thought he could, and I said that after the wrar had closed he opened his mail one morning, and I A f O ' to interpret it. It proved to be a let ter from H. Greeley," and was about to the following effect: Mr.' Greeley said to Mr. Breckinridge that he was aware that the latter personage in the South had influence, intellect, and popularity "Such persons as you," said Mr...Ureeley" ."we require to come back to; the country, and bring it to its legitimate status. Don't re- main away subject to the party spleen which will shortly overwhelm you, but come back again amongst your friends, 1 neighbors and fellow-citizens, and help us to rebuild the country. If I can be of any influence as a Republican editor I will give you my help to re turn to the country and take your place again in the ranks, where you legitimately belong, as one of ' the leaders of the ;Sbuthern . populace." Breckinridge read this letter.
