Our annual state election takes place 10
about four weeks. The time should be i'm
proved by the Wings, in getting up aud
maintaining an organization which will en-
sure the election OF the Wing Ticket by as
largea majority as that which il received last
year. There is no reason why that MAORI
~ should DC diminished single vote; there
is no reason why single man who voted
for it then, shall not vote for il now The ma
lonal administration since thattime has done
nothing TO gain the confidence OF the people,
and has done every thing to weaken what
little hold it nigh, ever have had upon their
Affections. The same disregard of the will
Of the people, the same opposition to their
interests, the same sacrifice OF every thug

management OF the government The sane

and the same disappointment Of men known
TO be incapable and dishonest still continse
In fact, the administration is now reduced to
its desperate measures; it has every thing at
stake in the fall election, and having no rep.

steps Of Swartwout and Price
The state Of Vermont has, II the present
moment, many and weigh,y reasons for a
bold and firm opposition TO the wild schemes
Of the administration. 1.-THE administration
is measurably successful. in the fall elections
the next session of Congress will witness
holder measures for reducing the country to
the condition Of republic in name. but a
monarchy in truth. An attempt will b,
made 10 place the industry Of the American
citizen on level with that of the foreign
serf who works for his ten cents per day.
Our "nothern man with southern principles,
stands ready 10 adopt any project that may
win for him the support Of John G. Calhoun
and his followers. That support is 10 b,

ing and agricultural interest at the north

an important, we may say preponderating
influence on the result OF this reckless
scheme. Burlington Free Press.

Of which he complains, could not have Sc.
