slavery has cast mist around her. stalked thro'
the land, and bound many Of our Simpsons in
her chains. Agitation has tendency to awaken
attention TO the wrongs of slavery, to the inaIien-
able rights of man, TO our civil duties, and the
fundamental principles of all righteous legislation
and rational government. Presenting our petit
lions to Congress for the abolition of slavery,
wakes up the attention of men to their rights, and
lays open the dark and bloody denominations Of
slavery. Hence petitions should be poured into
the ear of Congress.
4. Our enemies are put in the wrong by our
petitions. The advocates of slavery know, that
the right Of petition is secured by the Constitution.
and is an naIienble right. They also know, that
they violate the Constitution and their oa,hs, when
they deny us this right. Their consciences con-
denim them. They feel like culprits-conscious
that posterily will condemn them. And all im-
partial men in our own land and in every land,
must see their duplicity, and condemn their wrong
conduct. Row. it is always desirable to put our
done by presenting our petitions we should perse-
we're in doinr it,that they may be ashamed or stand
out before the world in their true character, the
adherence Of unborn generations, liberty on their
tongues, letters in their hands, oppression in their
hearts, and the Constitution under their feet, with
Atacrton and Gag-larc inscribed upon every FORE
head.
5. The signs of the times are encouraging
True, the opposition of the pro-slavery party-the
cold calculating Indifference Of the fence party, and
the diversity of opinions among the friends Of the
slave, are painful considerations but they will
lead to discussion, and this, if carried on with
right spirit, will help US to find out the way in
which we should go, and should not discourage
exertion Look on the other hand. The Eman-
cipation in the West Indies works we'll, and the
blacks give good evidence that they are men.
France is moving on with a firm step, and will
soon abolish slavery in her colonies. The con-
vention of the world will be grand spectacle, and
will not be held in vain The appeal of Donna
Maria to the governments. Of Europe may induce
them 10 come TO a conclusion, and TO ,jfr the time
srhen Slavery shall cease. Various States have ac-
ted lavorably on the slave question. Or oacm has
done n0bly-our sentiments are gaining influence
at the Southland the convusions in the church
es show that the spirit of life still fingers among
them Who, then, can be faint-hearted, when
heaven and earth are all in motion, coming to their
help? Let the shout be onward Push the en-
envy to the wall Petition Congress TO arraign,
trv condemn and execute him. Remember the
the importunate widow, follow her example, and
push forward your pttions to Congress. And
while we petition our rulers, let us not be slack
in presenting our applications to Him, who can
turn their hearts as the rivers Of water and dispose
them to hear the cry of the oppressed.

Intemperance in Vermont.

Samuel Chapman, Esq, in his Report to our
State Temperance Society," submitted in October,
makes the following interesting Statements
IL have seldom called for names to the pledge,
and have very little data from which to ascertain
how many have been Induced, through my instru-
mentality, to abandon the down hill path of he
drunkard; but know that individuals in many
places have abandoned the traffic, and that pro-
essed Christians, in repeated instances, have been
compelled to hear and obey the monions Of con-
Science--lhey have been ashamed to reiterate the
stale plea that, if Christians abandon the traffic
altogether ii will fall into worse bands" The
churches are beginning to act with decision and
efficiency in this matter.
Your seIcc-mcn and civil authority have am
persuaded, not appreciated one half as many tav-
ern-kcepers and merchants the present year, as
the last
One evil here cannot hut name Your Sc
Iect-nen and civil authority are required TO meet
together to hear and act upon petitions for appro-
bation-there have beel instances, when after the
board had once me, and heard and acted on every
petition, afterwards an individual had taken his
petition in his hand, and gone to the members OF
the board separately and obtained their signatures,
and in some cases licenses have been granted
when the applicant has obtained only minority
of the names of the board.
But there are, no doubt, three times as many
Temperance Houses in your state as there were
in 1888, and your society may rejoice, and the
friends of temperance may rejoice, and the friends
Of temperance may congratulate themselves on The
fact, that with hardly an exception they are de-
cidedly the best houses in the vicinity"
"In the State Of Vermont have examined Q
few jals, ana arm as fully satisfied that as large,
share Of their tenants are the product of alcohol
as in New York, [nine tenths. Indeed Judge
Collamer remarked at the temperance convention
at Woodstock last March, that he had heard a
great many statements as TO the proportion OF
crime which might be attributed to intemperance,
but said he. with emphasis, Il never saw a
statement large enough yet" statement of
Rev. Mr.. Walker now Of Braulcboro,' made al
the same time and place, fully corroborates my
statistics of deaths from intemperance, He obser-
we'd, that " in the years which he spent as the
minister of East Rutland, he kept record OF
deaths which occurred, and that in that time 80
men dicd--tbot more than half Of them were in
temperate, and that not an Incorporate man arri-
we'd at the age OF so.
You would find, 100, that almost every homicide
which has blackcned the calender of your courts
has been connected with in'emre,arcc. The two
cases which took place on the same day las, Octo-
Der, the one at Rutland in which Daman liIle d
his own wife, and the other that of Bates at Shafts
bury, who killed his brothers wife, were both
clearly the products Of nemperance.
In regard to paupers, have found that in YER
mont, at least fceSeyenths have been brought to
that condition by intemperance."

\ CASE FOR THE CHRoNICLE.-AS soon rs Mr.,
Tracy gets through with Mr.. Birney's case, we
propose that he undertake critical, excgetical
and philosophical anal isis of the following. It's
n rare chance for hair-spliuing.
STEALING MILK
Mr. Thomas Whitmarsh has noticed for some
time past, that almost every morning, his cow Lad
been stripped, during the night OF the principal
part of her milk Monday night his boys kept
watch in the barn.-Sometime in the night, some
body came and commenced milking. The boys
saw man milking and small boy by his side !;
but before they could discover who is was, the
Gu prit tools alarm and fled.
What must be thought Of the man who will not
only commit such crime, but also teach his sou
to seal.--HampMire Gazette.
And what must be thought of proressed teachers
of religion, who teach that it is not sinful for the
son to steal, because the father stole lefore him !?
And if it be thus disgraceu for poor man to steal
milk, to keep himself and children from starving,
what shall we think of the mean css of the rich
man who makes it his business to steal and sell
the children Of the poor in order to increase his
wealth, and live in style and spIendor! Suppose
it should be discovered that the poor man who
stole the milk vas church member would any
of our occlesiasics complain that the peace Of the
church was disturbed, and that religion was as
sailed because it should be said that the thief ought
to be excluded from church fellowship Great
pains have been taken to prove that there may be
cases OF innocent sIaveholdlng, or man stealing.
Why not institute an inquiry whether there may
not be cases of innocent milk stcalng2 Perhaps
the milk steaer had no other way TO avoid starva-
ton. And then "grGdual' abandonment Of
milk stealing might be very convenient for the
culprlt Or he might be persuaded to abandon
