The Least Of Two Exila.

Our brother Treadwell, ofthe Michigan
Freeman, has a good hit upon the doctrine
OF choosing the ''least of two evils"
THE TIPPLER AND THE GAMBLER
Says Mary to Julia, which had you rather
haze, a tippler or a gambler2 Neither,
promptly replied Julia. Why, said Mary?
Because both are too fair candidates for
the poor house, the penitentiary, or the
gallows!
The time is not far distant when public
sentiment in this country will deservedIy
regard the traffickers in "HuMAN FLESH
AND BLOOD" in a still more -odious light
than it does either Of the above named
characters.
And it might have been add d that law,
makers, who have not intelligence and
manhood enough to treat the traffic in
human flesh as a crime, will deservedly
be ranked IN the same grade. All that is
wanting to rid the country Of slavery, is
for our citizens to exercise the same good
sense in the choice of their rulers that
Julia did in the choice of a husband
Suppose one of her suitors-the gambler,
for example-to have been a man of lear.
ming, fine accomplishments, great wealth,
generous qualities, &c. &c.. and suppose
his rivallhe reverse of all this, how easy
it would have been for some kind adviser
to have told Julia, that in choosing the
gambler, she need not choose him on oc-
count of his gambling, but only on occount
OF his good qualities; so that instead of
choosing the least of two evils. she would
only be choosing a positire good, instead
of the two evils Of a tipping husband, or
a life of c~elibacy. The doctrine of alter
natives, too, might he urged with great
effect, if the lady was not more likely to
get another offer, land one to her mind }
than abolitionists are to get a good candi-
date proposed to them. And then again,
the F." resPonsibility''-in case of rejecting
the gambIer-of deciding between the
two evils of a drunken husband on the
one hand, and Of disobeying the divine
command Genesis, i. 28) on the other.
In every view Of the subject, as good an
argument could be made for a v~irluous
young lady, to choose between a tippler
and a gambler, as for an abolitionist to
choose between two pro-slayery lawmak.

The Editor of the Democrat still persists
that Virginia on the popular vote is perfectly
sure for Van Buren,. We believe and knoic
that the Stale has gone for the Wings both by
the popular vote and majority ofboth Houses.
There has been gain gilmore than 5000 votes
since 1895, and there Is now a majority oil
more than 1000 for the Wings in the Old Do
minion.
A letter from gentleman in Washington
dated May Sd to a gentleman in this village al
luding to the election in Virginia, says, "You
will have heard before this reaches you that
there is no longer any peradventure about vir.
giuia. There is Wing majority Of l4in join,
ballot, ensuring the election Of Mr. Rives and
another Wing Senator the ensuing winter, and
what adds still more TO the value Of the victory,
is the evidence furnished by decided Wing
majority in the popular vote that the state will
90 for Harrison in the fall. The admnistra-
lion people are in great CONSERVATION, as well
they may be, at the result, and now admit,
what they have heretofore denied in public,iha
"Mr Pan Buren, soiH haze hard run Of it,
They will undoubtedly make desperate fight,
but if the Wings do not get TOO confident and
relax their efforts, or commit some uraniicipa-
ted folly, il seems TO me that Mr. Van Buren,
instead Of making hard run Of il, will be lit
tie able to make any race at ALL That Gen.
Harrison, in sporlsmans' language, will be able
to walk over the course. believe the fate of
the administration is sealed and Ldoubt wheth-
er Martin Van Buren, differs from me in this
opinion"

For The pb,o,,enix,,.

Mr. Ryther,--sir: as you complied withmy
wishes some weeks ago by inserting in your
paper an extract from another paper, take the
liberty TO troubleyou again, believing that your
friend of the quill who edits the Democrat
would like TO read the opinions which the Dem,
ocrats of the last war held in relation to Gen
Harrison.
In January 1si2two months after the BATH,
Of Tippecanoe, the Legislature Of Kentucky
was in session. On the 7th Of January 1915
the following resolution passed that body =
Resolved by the Senate and House Of Rep
resentatives of the State Of Kentucky, that il
the late campaign against the Indians upon III,
Wabash, Governor William Henry Harrison
has behaved like hero, patriot aud general
and that for his cool, deliberate, skilful and
gallant conduct in the battle Of Tippecanoe h
well deserves the warmest thanks Of bic coup
try and his nation. sish.ss'.'--A
Ifany community Of people ever irlsu, who
were literally cradled in war, i is to be found
in the State OF Kentucky. Wander over any
of the battle fields in the West, and you will
find il white with the bones Of her children.
In youth and 10 ripe manhood they taught
the Indians in ambuscades aud open battle
fields. In the battle of Tiprecanoe in 1911,
there, too, as we know they were still found,
foremost where life was to be lost, or glory
won and there they were commanded by Gen,
Harrison.
will add the testimony OF another Legisla-
iure. On the 18th Of Nov. 1911, the Territori
al Legislature of Indiana was in session. Just
five days after the battle of Tippecanoe that
Legislature, through their speaker, addressed
Gen. Harrison as follows -
'sSir,-The House Of Representatives OF the
Indiana Territory, in their own name, and in
behalf Of their constituents, most cordially re-
ciprocate the congratulations Of your excelens
cy on the glorious result ofthe late sanguirsry
conflict with the Shawnee Prophet aud the
tribes Of Indians coniederated with hun.
When we see displayed in behalf Of our
country not only the consummate abilities Of
the general, but the heroism Of the man, and
when we take into view the benefits which
pust result 10 that country from those exer-
lions, we cannot for moment, withhold our
need Of applause"
And what was the testimony OF Presiden,
Madison respecting the battle Of Tippecauoe
will quote his own words from his Message
to Congress about a month after the even, -
"While il is deeply lamenied that so many
valuable lives have been lost in the action
which took place on tie all ul,ino, Congress
will see with satisfaction the dauntless spirit Of
fortitude vigorously displayed by every des-
cription Of troops engaged, as peH as the col
iecfed frmness rhich distinguished their com
mander on an occasion requiring the utmost
ererfions Of RAZOR and discipiine."
When history record such opinions Of Gen.
Harrison, from such sources, who, but tories,
would attempt TO deprive him Of bis good name
and the frs, place in the hearts Of his country.

More Anies.-The Hon. John Ruggles, Sen
ator in Congress from Maine, has abandoned
the administration party and come out in favor
OF Harrison. The Hon. Mr. Berren formerly
Attorney General under Gen. Jackson has sign.
ed call for Harrison meeting to be held al
Savannah. Major Joel Crawford an old
States Rights Democrat and once member Of
Congress from Georgia has also come out ia
support Of Harrison. These are but few Of
the many accessions to the Wing ranks which
we could mention. Why don't the Editor Of
the Democrat notice the accessions which oc-
cur, if any, to the Tory ranks. Echo answers
there are none.

A gathering Of the citizens Of Boston took
place on Thursday last al old Faneuil
Hall, to heara statement of the doings at the
Baltimore Convention. The Hall was ell
ed to overaowing. Hon. Edward Everett
was called to the chair, and addressed
the vast congregation in most happy man,
ner. The meeting was also addressed by
Mr. Crosier Of Tennessee who gave an inter
esting account OF the political state OF things in
that state, declaring tina, il the ball of reyolu-
ton should be stopped at that moment, Ten
nessee would give Gen. Harrison at least 1000
majority on the electoral vote. Mr. Wickiiffe
Of Kentucky also spoke for an hour or more, and
in conclusion pledged Kentucky for. the Log
Cabin Candidate, aud declared that she was the
North Star which had never changed her pos
iton and never would. Mr. Hume Of Tennes-
see, Mr. Austin and others also responded 10
the call of the people.
The Boston papers speak Of this meeting ms
most enthusiastic. We have no fears for the
Bay State she will come round right side up
next November WITHOUT any mistake.

LOG CABiN CONVENTION. Many of our read
ers are aware that correspondence has been
going on for several weeks past, between the
Young Men of Windham and Bennington
Counties, on the subject of helding Log
Cabin Convention in Stratton on the Green
Mountain, near the line of the two Counties.
For the information of all who feel an interest
in the project, we are requested 10 state that
the said convention will be holden between
the first and tenth days Of July next and that
formal notice will be given of the time, and the
objects Of the convention, in both the Wing
papers ofthis county, as early as the first week
in June next We understand that the object
ofputting of this convention until July, is to
prevent its interfering with the session Of the
County Court in Bennington County, and that
Of the Wing State Convention, which is 10 be
holden at Burlington the 4th week in June

Every day brings us intelligence which

Every day brings us intelligence which
renders It more and more certain that Van Blu
tenism is on the wane, and that Harrison will
be our next President. The tories themselves
now begin to doubt the possibility of eleciing
Van Buren,, and well they may, for eonsserna-
tion and dismay have seized them. That
which they had fondly hoped would prove only
momentarY excitement on the part of the
Wings, is daily and hourly increasing. They
are fully aware that their own prospects are
gloomy, and that the Wings have everything
10 cheer them on. Is il net SO. Look al the
discord and divisions which manifesis
itself ia their ranks, and is ii NOT con elusive
evidence that their downfall is certain. We
think we can see defeat enstamped in
glowing letters upon the party, as plain and
distinctly as the Sun at MONDAY.

n-ExHiBrrioN OF rnE BLlNp.-We have
not at any time been more intensely interested
in any thing than we were at the recent exhi-
bition in this village, of some of the pupils, be-
longing to the Institution for the Blind, located
in Boston. Our sympathies have always been
enlisted in their BEHALF but this exhibition has
shown us that they were comparatively very
weak, to what they should be. We are now
led to wonder, that so little interest has been
manifested towards this unfortunate class OF
community. 1t may be accounted for howev-
er. from the fact that the public have known
but little about them.
DIR. Howe who was with them, is truly a
philanthropst, and deserves the highest praise
of the community, for his laudabIe efforts in
behalf of the Blind. We were struck forcibly,
with the ease and facility, with which the pu-
pills read from different portions of the Bible ;
solving arithmetical and algebraical problems,
many of which would have puzzled those pres
ent, calling themselves first rate mathemati-
clans.
The audience seemed to be particularly
pleased and interested, with the aptness of a
young lad from this town, who has been in this
Institution, who deserves great credit for the
proficiency made during the comparatively
short space which he has been absent from
his friends. His answers TO questions pro-
pounded BY his teacher, and other individuals,
IN mathematics and astronomy, were surpri-
sing, and would put to blush, many young men
who were older and have had the best literary
advantages which money could afford
Not less interesting was their display Of mu-
steal talent Each Of The -four pupils are must
cal performers; one played the trombone,
another the bass viol, the other two the French
Horn and Clarionei, while the teacher joined
In with the Cute. One of the pupils also play
ed the piano-torte renartabiy wel. We were
also sratiGed al tbeir vocal pesformance-,h

displayed in all their efforts.
We cannot refrain from commendins ahis OBJ

say, that no 0ae object ia our opiaios mas a
greater claim or is more worthy the liberalisy OF

We would ask the Editor of the Democrat,
why he is SO silent in relation TO the recent
Convention Of Tories in Baltimore. We see
no mention made in that paper Of the proceed
ings of this meeting. Is he ashamed to let his
subscribers know that there is trouble in NE
WigWam. Is he afraid to tell them there
was dirision and discord there. Is he moi
afraid to tell them that the party could moi
agree who tonominate as a candidate for Vice

phrase is. 'sn,eH The rat" and be of. We
