THE RENSSELAER UNION. Thursday, Oct. 17th, 1872.

For President, ULYSSES S. GRANT. For Vice President. HENRY WILSON.

The Republicans made a break, in the fortified position of the Democracy of. Stark county and succeeded in electing the Sheriff, Real Estate Appraiser and om? Cc niniissioncr7 r * Tn the Cass, Cttitoll, Miami, Wa. bash district, lion. John I". Pettit, Republican candidate for Circuit Judge, was defeated by Gapt. Dudley Chase, of Logansport, Independent Republican. The defection was of a 1 oc:j.l liature, Dr. Jethro A. Hatch, Republican, is elected‘to the lower house of the General Assembly by the following vote: hatch. —wickersham. Pulaski 6.5 9611 Jasper 99.1 563 Newton *67 594 Total vote. y. ;—. . 2.'95 2,114 2,114

Hatch’* Majority... 2s-L,,’, This is the largest majority ever given in the district since the Republican party was organized; and it has “Morton lor U. S. Senator” speaking from every figure. The latest reports we have received confirm the —election of Hon. Thos. A. Hendricks Governor by nearly 1,000 majority. It is also thought that Hon. Milton I>. Hop kins is elected Superintendent, of Public Instruction. Of the latter we arc free to say that he has shown himself to be the best man for that position Indiana has yet produced. His election is the just tribute of a discriminating public to an honorable, efficient and every way good-officer. Although wc did not vote for him, we are truly glad of his re-election. i Hon. Geo. A. Netherton, Republican candidate for Joint Representative in the Legislature from the counties of Stark and Laporte •-was defeated by Dr. Glazebrook. While this result may li'ot be of present benefit to our. party the reputation of our State and of the people who compose his constituents are undoubted gainers, for w.e do not know where to go to find ah individual who had command of more words and fewer ideas. His garrulity was greater than that of any tea d:inking old granny’s, and his barrenness of sense, if possible, exceeded bisigarrulity.

Vote on Congressman.

As. nearlyas we can ascertain, the majorities/given by the several counties of the Eleventh Congressional district of Indiana, for Congressmaid at the election last week, is fas follows: PACJtaib. HEXRICKS, St. Joseph ~-.477 Mars! all .. ~477 Lake..... .667 Lapp He 144 ,i Porter/.. .396 1 Fulton 146 Jasjier/. 426 Pulaski 364 Newton 184 5tarke........ Cl Total...^STSfr— —- 1152 U 52 ' ■ Minority... 99d <A White county is =BS nearly a tie that it has probably not given ji majority of ten for either candidate. Although the foregoing is not the official voteof all the counties it approximates it so clpsely -Hrat iLAvrll not be changed twenty cither way. ~ Two years ago Mr, Packard's majority wag 1407. Tli? opposition has, without organized or united effort, .succeeded in cutting down his majority nearly one-third, and this, too, hi a Presidential campaign ■ when party lines are closely drawn, Theireause was just and righty amd though not fully triumphant there is reason for congratulation. Had this been the “off season 1 ’ in politics the probability is strong that we would have been successful.— Let the elements which opposed Mr. Packard remain firm in their tonvictions and two years hence, ts the dis4riet_remainsunchanged, success will surely crown their ef»* farts. The Republican party, or rather those who assuiped to control its course at the Plymouth cpnwention, may console themselvee that in a? large measure to their.,oandidate may be ascribed the glory of transfering his own (Laporte) county to the Democracy; and General Jasper Packard and General John Peter Clever Shanks may divide between themselves the honor of having, by their own selfishness arid imbecility, contributed more than any other two men in the State to the election of a Democratic Governor J

Col. John W. Fcster.

Nearly’ al! our Republican ex-< changes speak in warmest tpfritfs of , commendation a£_the systematic ! and thorough organization of the party in Indiana, by Col. J. W. Eos? i ter r Chairman of the State Execu- ' live Committee. Commencing in January, lie has been untiling in his efforts to reorganize and 'thor- ■ oughly mobilize the party in every GOnnty and precinct. Under the -disastrous administration of- his predecessor many good men had been disgusted with the dishohestv • that' •'prevailed nt headquarters, others were discouraged by the de- ' (feat whir-h was directly traceable .to imbecility if not downright sale, and everywhere a lukewarm and desp indent feeling was manifest.— 'tTuUpers'iSTe ht. i:. d efa t igab 1e 1 ab<.r, together with discreet counsel, brought order out of cOTrfusipn and inspired enthusiasm where indifference prevailed. The result of it ii 11, is a substantia 1 ami nearly complete victory. Credit for these grand results is largely due to Col. Juister and hrs- able assislaiiirr, among, whom standing prominent is Capt. Jerome C. Burnett the eificient Secretary of our State Central Committee, ami the party should not faiLio reward them with an adequate-compensation for their fidelity and arduous lahors. ’ t g.

The most conclusive refutation of the campaign slanders about .the robbery aud corruption of the Adminisirattoh is furnished T>y the books, of tlie Internal Revenue Bureau, which show receipts for the current month at the rate of 8120,000,000 a year in excess of tiie estimates. Yet tins is tire month, in which, according to the opjTosition pressmTTd-orators, millions have been spent to carry the elec! ions. Fromthe Liberal standpoint what a wonderful country is this which can go on yielding, both stealings and revenue at such a rate, and yet enjoy uninterrupted prosperity.— fnter-Oced'n. The recent elections prove one thing very clearly—party leader- in this country are much more dependent on the people than tlie people are on them. Su ioiig as a public man keeps abieast with a great popular movement and fairly represents it, the people will accord to him tin; honors of . leadership. But let him break faith, j or fly the track, or attempt to deliver i bis party over to the enemy and he i will linU himself spurned and ignored by the people, ft is a terrible thing to betray a party and a very difficult one to accomplish in this, country. — The people think for themselves too muem iSehuiz, Sumner and Trum-buß-hwve discovered that they were great leaders, simply so long as they led where tile party wanted them to go and was willing to' follow, but when they inaiky away and attempted To lead Republicans where They did not wish to go and could not be made to go, their influence was broken aiid fheir power gone.—/m/.

A "Liberal Retormer"

From the’ Laporte Herald. Most of our readers have heard how that Alf. Leonard, laie clerk in the Northern Prison and a busy, conspicuous leader and nianager of the Dt-in-ocratic-Liberal-Reforni party of La- : porte county, “skinned out” the other ntght for parts unknown, taking with* him divers sums of money belonging ito other parties. Just how much lie 1 carried off in his absquatulafion is not ' known, and will not soon ( if ever) be ! ascertain elf. He cleaned out the prison safe (all save So cents) before his flight, putting in his pocket some 83,P00 or 84.000 of State fimds; —Be was agent for several msuraime-cmn-pimies, ami probably took some 8700 ;or SBOO ot their assets with him. He also had an agency sot-selling steami ship tickets and drafts from New i York, amt doubtless fobbed a heavy i Latch of receipts from this source.— It is estimated that Alf. has embrzzled in all from $7,000 to SIO,OOO. The 'prison directors, we hear, are very close-mouthed and reticent about the ' amouut stolen from that institution. It is given out that Leonard’s bond . wi 11 sec tyre_t l ie. St at e aga in s t lall—kissL ; hut if, as reported,-he has forged sig- I natures to hjs bonds in other in.p’ay.ed tiie sauia ! game on this casb<-in which event ■ trouble must arise. The last act of ‘ Alf. before his final exiX was to issue dare well Jiddres.s to the_Sniora) ami i religious people of La]>orte\(-minty,” I imploring them not to vote Tor that ; bad, corrupt'man, Dr. Shermahdl

Running la a Rut.

Our election machinery reminds us ' of the man who went to mill on horse* i back with the corn in one end of tlye i bag and a stone in the other end~to balance-it, instead of dividing the grain. We ke< n one Election Board at work twelve hours receiving votes and then wear it out-to entire itreffi*“ ciency by requiring it to sit thirty-six hours counting them out, when the [ work should .be done during the wjhom we can induce to serve upon these Boar*!s is barbarous. Besjde. lt actually costs more than a better and niore humane system would. Adding': I to these objections the Tcsrf of time of , the tltousarids who wait for the news, I and *We have an overwhelming, argui.ment sliowiuyr the folly au<t. stupithty. 'of running in this old election law rut. The remedy is very simple.— I What we want to'do is-what the.man ' 1 going t<t.inill should have done—we i must divide the work. By providing a Counting Board for’preeincts where 'more than 2W votes—are I two ballot boxes, and these i boxes over for couirtrrfg when fifty • votes are received, the work could be dore, and the resblt known in an hour i or two after closing the polls. If the Legislature elected last Tuesday can ■ find time’ between the acts regulating I courts arid the practice thereirj, to i give tins little boon to the people, it! may repay the trouble and expense of election arid session.

To Repnblicans.

Ucfl. J. W. Foster, Chairman of the Republican State Central Committee, huts issued’ the fo-llowin" Congratulatory address: ’-To the Republicans-of Indiana: “After a hard.gml testy! eongratnlate yott on thesubstaiitial victory which you hia ye achieved. Never In the history of the State, and perhaps ofthe nation, has there been such a fierce , mid unequal warfare made against a successful party. We onteredupon the ettmptUgn against the tin’ted Democracy, flushed with the succe-K of 1570. ami strengthened by a considerable disaffection in our own ranks, which tseeim-d to from tis even the chances of a success. But confident of the justice of our eau.-e, and animated by our triumph in the past, we- entered upon the canYass with a determination to wrest victory from our opponents if it could be accomplished by hard work, thorough organization and devotion to the gloriousprinciples of our party. We present as the substantial fruits of -viot«ry, : a -legislature, Republican in both branchesby adecided majority, which gives assurance.of ourcontiol of the Stateaml the return of Oliver P. Morton to the senate of the United States. I'he election of our Congress-men-at-Large, the true index of our party strength, and a proof that Indiana is undoubtedly Republican. A gain of two district Congressmen and the election of the greater portion of pujiHiaieTiclcet.—'That our victoryE not entirely com p 1 ete -is- o-wing 4m file i personal slatr'ders and frauds of our opponents, “I desire to thank the chairmen of our county conqnittees and through them the earnest and arduous workers whose true energy and‘devotion to the party organization have secured our hmg and faithful services. deserved that, we; should publicly’ recognize the gallant canvass which Thomas M. Browne has made, and to assure him that, ‘ though he may be deprived of ofliee I by malignity and dishonesty, he has the confidence and support of the major! t,y of fhtHa gal voters of tlre State. “The fierceness of the battle isover, but we have one more assault to make imon ouro+qioneufs. We-must make the victory- complete by giving the electoral vote of Indiana to Grant and Wilson by an overwhelming majority. Let me urge upon o-ir county committees and the Republicans of Indiana to preserve and perfect their organization, in order to aehei ve this last and crowning vi'‘j 01 . y and triumph. Let it be the aim of the counties which made a good recordon Tuesday’ last to improve on it in Novemlicf, and let the counties which, under adverse circumstances, lost ground or sustain-: e-d disaster, nerve themselves to regain it. Let us gain such a victory as will I make Indiana up longer a doubtful State. “Jony.W:-F-ostek, Chairman Riiiubliean State Committee.” — — ,
