STATE CONVENTION.
Upon consideration of the signs of the
times and after consultation with friends OF
the cause, the undersigned have deemed it
proper to call State Convention of the
opponents of the national administration.
In view, therefore, of the present unparal-
elled state of the country, and Of the in
cessant exertions which are made to mis-
lead and deceive the people as to the true
causes Of recent events, and to perpetuate
power in the hands of men who have, by
an abuse ofpower and a disregard OF the
admontions OF wisdom and experience, de-
stroyed the currency, palsied the industry,
deranged the business, impaired the credit
Of the country, and overwhelmed the ma
tional treasury itself in the torrent of gen
eral bankruptcy-we do earnestly request
the freemen of Vermont, supporters of the
supremacy of the laws and ola constitution
Il government honestly administered, who
are opposed to the measures and principles
of the ruling dynasty, to meet by their deli
gates, AT LEAST TEN FROM EACH TOWN, in
State Convention at Montpelier, on We'd
NEsDAY, the 18th DAY OF July NEXT, at 10
O'Clock, A. M. In making this call, we are
conscious that the appeal is made to free
men who have thus far triumphantly and
honorably maintained their principles and
their political integrity, against the COM
bined assaults of power and influence from
abroad, and of jealous and active oppo-
nents among US 10 such men it is neces-
sary for us only to suggest, that now, when
the wave of political revolution and reform
is already beginning to sweep over the ma
ton, the honor, the reputation, and the in
terests of Vermont, all demand Of every
freeman to do his duty, by energetic and
well directed action.
