The rights OF editors and publishers of paper
have been too long neglected. Justice will neve
be done unless themselves assert their right
and enfofce the most rigid rules, which in the
end will be found alike saIutary to the public ant
beneficial TO those engaged in the press. Pub
fishers of papers have been so long imposed upor
by the community at large, that they are consid
cred to some extent degraded class of beings
when in fact there is no vocation in life so honor
able, deserving of so high consideration, produc.
tive of so much good, class that exerts so power
full an influence. 1t is known to be pFoverbial fol
the debtors to newspaper publishers to consider
their demands as the last to be paid~-debts to
which there is attached no moral obligation, and
which they can refuse to pay with justice and
honor: hence, it is incumbent upoR the conduc-
tors of the press to assert their own rights, and
resolve, severally and jointly, to bring all patrons
of newspapers under the same obligations that at
tach to other contracts, or always remain in pow
erty and want, with thousands due them from the
most solvent men in the country.
We call upon all editors and publishers of pa
pers who approve of the following rules, to endorse
them by their signatures place them at the head
of their papers, and strictly adhere to them.
LIST. No subscription received without payment
IA Gdranee.
Cd No subscription received for less than six
months
Sd. Advance payment will be required from
all transient advertisers.
4th. To announce no man for any office, either
State or County, without the advance payment OF
ten dollars.
5th Political circulars charged as advertise

6th All advertisements of personal alterca-

7th Election tickets will not be printed with

E.sed on this question. The People $
press and the Vermonter, both intimate.
that though there were only three or four
dissenting votes, still majority of the
aholi,ionists present, were, at heart, OPP

We are wholly unable to conceive how
snv one who was in the Methodist meet

yo5e was taken, can entertain such belief.
If any resolution was passed during the
meeting with an emphasis and unanlmlty
of expression amounting to reclamation

was and is our belief, and we doubt II
dozen persons can be found TO call It IN

To be published at Montpelier, Vermont,
on the first OF ere1y momth, Wnder the
direction of the ErecUtire Committee
of The Vermont Temperance Society.
This Journal will be exclusively devot-
ed TO the subject of Temperance. It's de-
sign will be to advocate the cause Of TO-
tai abstinence from all that intoricates,
as the only possible ground on which The
ultimate triumph OF Temperance princi-
plies can be expected. And, as temper
ance is the great moral field in which all
can unite, and labor, ii will be the object
of this journal to invite to hearty co-ope-
ration, all the friends of the cause, thro'-
out the state, regardless of any of those
distinctions which are connected with
most other public or benevolent OBJECTS
Of the day.
The leading design of the TEMPER
ANCE STAR will be. TO endeavor, by ar
gument and persuasion, To awaken the al
tention of the whole community, TO the
necessity of speedily banishing intoxIcat.
ing drinks IRON among US; aud while i
shall faithfully and frarlessly pursue il:
object, it will endeavor to avoid that ultra
ism which leads TO indiscriminale deuun

All experience demonstrates that, il
free governments, Legislative aid cannot b.
safely relied on in matters OF moral reform
unless public opinion precede and stant
ready 10 sanction legislative enactnents
to prepare the way for which assistance t.
the Temperance reform, will be anOthe
object of the proposed publication.
