ResolUcd, That the people OF Vermont,
from the earliest dawn Of their political CX-
istcnce to the present moment, have stead
lily manifested iheir deep attachment to re-
publican institutions, and their capacity to
preserve and defend them, as well against
the assaults ofpretendcd friends, as the open
attacks Of acknowledged enemies and that
NOW, in November 1886, they will not for
ihc first time depart from their ancient
principles, but will proclaim them from the
ballot boxes in voice that shall neither be
mistaken, nor misunderstood.
Re,olced, That the people Of Vermont
view with alarm and adherence the open,
acknowledged and undlsEnsed efforts Of
Gen. JACKSON, by means Of the money Of
The people, of the patronage of the govern
ment, and of his own personal elcctionecr-
ing cxcrtions, to appoint, for the Country, a
successor to the Presidency; efforts, which,
If they remain unrcbukad by the people,
viii efftctualy convert them into the SORTS of
monarchial dynasty, leaving them but the
forms of liberty without the substace.
Resolved That the people Of Vermont,
opposed, hs they have uniformly been to
the illegal and daring assumptions of pow
er by the present executive Chief Magis-
frate N the Unitel States, and to most of
she other prominent acts of his adminstra-
tion, cannot without an entire abnudon-
tuent Of their former principles, give in

compatible with the genius and spirit Of
free. government, and that any attempt to
reinstate or revive them among us, will
be met on our part with the most uncom-
promising opposition.
Hon. William Sade, from the same COM
mittee, presented the following ADDRESS
to the lreemen of the State of Vermont,
which was read and unanimously adopted,

be, to carry out the principles which Gen.
Jackson has begun"
Resolred, That in the manifestation of
the sentiments of Martin Van Buren, as de-
cared by the acts Of his political life, we
discover nothing in common with those OF
the people of this state, but on the contrary
a totai disregard for them and in the mean
scrviity to the will of a master, which
prompted him, without blush, to proclaim
to the world that it was his sufficient
glory to serve under such chief" we
find him to have imbibed notions truly COLI
sonant to the feelings of a slave, but utter
w disgusting to an independent freeman.
Resolved. That Martin Van Buren,, in
his opposition to the distribution of the sur
plus revenue has betrayed an utter disre-
gard to the interests of the people, desiring
rather to keep the public money under the
control of the executive, with which to in
crease hs ARM OF mrcenaries and reward
his favorites, than to distribute it among
the people to whom it rightfully belongs.
ReSolued, That the present crisis in our
national affairs calls loudly upon the friends
of the constitution and our common coun-
try, Tor their united and untiring exertons
in elevating to the Offices Of President and
Vice President Of this republck, men whose
aim shall be the 'common veal and the coun-
try's good, rather than self aggrandzemcnt
or the advancement Of party.
RESOLVED, That the Patriotism, Talents,
Political Honesty and Private Virtues, of
" NJ. HENRY HARRISON and FRAN
els GRANGER, justly enttle them to the
~, fdence and support of their fellow citi-

From the Richmond Wing.

REPUBLICANIsM AND FEDERALISM.
Zen. Harrison fought through the
worst period of the War, and accord.
ing to Col. Johnson, was longer in
active service than any other General
Oiilcer-was perhaps oltener in action
than any one of them and never sus.
tanned a defeat" Yet Richie says he
is a F~ederaHst!
Van Buren, was at horne, during this
gloomy era, "mousing over petty
schemes of ambition" taking an active
part in opposition to Madison's r~e.elec.
ton, and cooperating in the fullest de.
gree with the "peace party" Yet
Rltchie and the Central Committee say
he is a Republican, "who conforms to
the principles and views ofVirginia !"
Freemen and Republicans, is this the
Federalism you hate, and the Repubh.
cGniSm you adore? If so, then have
words no meaning, and principles no
stability. The unblushing apostates,
who are attempting to betray you into
the hands of your enemies, must doubt
your understanding, and feel a con.
tempt for your virtues, in thus attempt
ing to deceive you. They may tex.
punge" their W principles, but they
cannot obliterate the recorded actions
OF the men whom they hus falsely cha.
racterise. History stamps the lie up
on their assertions ; Truth frowns upon
their calumnies; Patriotism scouts their
recreoncy and indignant Freemen
will Illustrate their base and treasona>
BILE purposes.

In the mean time, Mr.. Coolidge,
with his process boarded the ship, found
the slaves, and informed them that they
could 90 on shore with him if they
wished TO do SO, aad pledged himself
they should be protected in their rights
ifthey feared any thing from the vio-
lence Of the abolitionists who had as
sailed them. The slaves, one and all
replied that they had not the slightest
disposition to go on shore-that they
had husbands in South Carolina, to
whom they wished to return, and knew
and cared nothing about liberty.
Satisfied that the slaves were not

not do any good, MIR. Coolidge who is

A JACK IN OFFICE REBUKED.-It
gives us pleasure (says the Baltimore
P~atriot) to record, in these degenerate
times, when all manly and honest feel
ing is so frequently sacrificed for the
lucre Of office, the following example

those whom the contemplate dema-
gogue at the head of the Post Office
Department calls " hirelings."

The Post Office Department is certain.

most alarming extent. Recently its
power was attempted to be exercised
against L.. P. Spence, ESQ.,, the post
master at Perryville Tennessee, but
slgnally failed. In accordance with
his rights and duties as a freeman, he
took occasion to tell the truth to the
Department, in relation to its demands
and acquisitions; and as he spurned the
idea of being q vassal to the sovereign
ty of that Government, of which, by
the constitution of his country, he was
a component-accompanied it with his
resignation. the department wrote
him substantially in reply, that he had
used language incompatible with the
position he sustained toward the admit
%nistration, and so ordered him forth.
with to advertise his resignation of the
office. He did SO but the People
were determined not to permit the sac
rifce of so faithful a public officer, and
after various Intellectual attempts to in
duce different individuals to take it, the
would-be masters of the people were
compelled to ask his acceptance of that
trust out of which they would fain have

, LATE FROM FLcRrDA.-Wc have a
| letter, (says the Alexandria Gazctte)
! from one ofour regular correspondents
in FLORIDA, dated Pensacola, October,
II. II describes Camp Call as a COM
plete grave yard, and states, general
ly, that the sufferings OF men and ON
GERS had been sever Gen. Call had
marched into the Indian country.
The following particulars OF an al
fair with the Indians is from the Apa-
lacllcola Gazette Of the 9Th ult.
We learn that Colonel Lane, on his
arrival at Tampa, lost not a moment
in commencing operations /; but, with
his usual alacrity, dashed into the
midst of the enemy at once. They
| were enabled to land their forces at
Tampa on the morning of the 30th !;
and having learned that a party Of
h%ostiles had burnt a house near that
place the night before, Colonel Lane,
with a party Of IL mounted men, and
and about 100 friendly Indians, set off
the same afternoon in pursuit of them.
After a very rapid march Of about II
miles, the enemy were discovered on
the opposite side Of Indian river. Col.
Lano and his few mounted men, who
were considerably in advance Of the
friendly Indians, made a vigorous and
gallant charge upon the enemy, driving
them down the river to q large ham.
mock, where from the great disparity
in numbers, they deemed it prudent to
await the arrival Of the friendly lndi-
ans, who were under the command of
Major Watson, Of Columbus, Georgia.
A brisk fire was, however, kept up by
Colonel Lane, and the enemy held in
check till the reinforcement arrived.
As soon as the friendly Indians came
up, a very animated fight across the ri
yer ensued, which lasted some fifteen
minutes; when Major Watson ordered
n charge, was himselffrst to cross the
river, and foremost throughoutthe fight.
The hostlles soon gave ground, though
slowly at frsl, and fought with despo.
ration for a mile and a half, when the
'OutO utSdiiIC SCilClui. Hty were
pursued by Col. Lane ana his mounted
men till night came on.
Too much credit cannot be given to
Colonel Lane for the cool Judgment and
bravery displayed in the management
OF this brilliant affair. He was much
exposed during the action, and his life
was at one time, probably saved by a
Mr.. Kelly, ofthe regulars, who, seeing
an Indian taking aim at the Colonel,
threw himself before hi, officer, and
received the ball in his own body !
Major Watson has since been pro.
NOTED, and the Colonel speaks in high
terms ofhis conduct. Lieut.. Leonard
was also conspicuous by his bravery,
having had his horse shot from under
him,
The loss Of the whites, was only two
wounded. The enemy's loss not known
as night came on and prevented an ex.
animation.
The number ofthe enemy could not
be accurately ascertaincd, though esti-
mated at from 100 to 300.
Soon after this affair, a diplomatic
corps was sent out, and until their re-
turn, operations will cease.
