ffinsurrecton, rebellion preiury and brib
cry were our rallylng points we must have
been prepared for the blacklist deeds that
blot the page Of history; and in this fight
have we been represented. Lawless IN
design, we must have been desperate in
execution and against such host, Of
what avail would have been hundred and
fifty militia Instead Of being suffered 70
reach their destined stations. they must
have fled from our seditious borders, or
fallen sacrifices to our rebelIious arms If
we are Justly accused of these crimes, the
honor Of our country calls for our trial and
condemnation these partial military meas
ures do not intiict the prefer punishment
But let our caldmnators reflect, that in
times Of foreign aggression, or domestic OPP
position and instruction, the protection of
our rights, the defence of our country, and
The authority Of our laws, ultimately de-
pend on our militia and that to trhe with
the regulations of this class Of citizens, or
directly, Dr. even implicitly TO call in ques-
ton their fidelity and patriotism, i essen
tally weakening the strongest defence Of
our republican institutions. When the spir-
us of our militia are broken BY unprovoked
insult and abuse, If military force should be
necessary, standing armies must be estab-
lIshed and where their tents are pitched,
liberty must quit the field. These are con
siderations in which the public are toe deep
ly interested, long TO behold with indifier-
ence, our present debased situation.
With regard to our fellow soldiers from
the county OF Rutland, as they were prompt
in their compliance with the acquisitions of
government, we honour and revere them !;
As they are hoble and soldier-hke in their
department among US, we esteem and res
pee: them.
We have now only 70 add, that we have
ever been true and tain sul 20 The State of
Vermont that we have ever supported the
constitution Of the United States that we
ever have, and ever will, with becoming
freedom, express our sentiments Of public
men and Of public measures and that we

and contempt, the infamous revilers of true
and loyal citizens. In his work our tongues
and our pens, may with prOpriety be en-
ployed-our swords are reserved for the O.
