FRIDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 1870
MIR. WEBSTER'S SPEECH.

we have devoted large space to-day to the
excellent practical, common sense speech of
Mr.. Webster, at the Mrchant's Exchange, in the
city OF New York. Mr.. Webster deals not in
abs,rac;lons-he holds out to his hearers no new
unrled or crude experiments for them to try, and
If they fail, to abandon for still newer EXPERT
ments, more crude and impracticabc, if it were
possible, than the first. Far from it. He re-
fers them TO what has always been the pra =
tee Of our wisest admuis,rations-to Wash.
ingtcn's, Jetiersons, Madson's, and Monroc's
Il is true, h., says nothing in favor Of Fanny
Nrght's system of finance, and very little in
favor Of that of Silas Wright but is he, for that
reason. less entitled to hearing from the i'm
partial democracy Of the nation What doe.
1t avail! to tho farmer to be told hat it is the
":rue democratic doctrine" to put the price of
wheat down to sixteen cents bushel, or to the
mechanic to he told that eleven pence day is
more than the Swedish mechanic can earn, if
he has to pay the same price for sugar, coffee.
tea, and other necessares Of life that he does
now! Mr.. Webster is not only great man,
but he is (what is far more is the purpose, and
without which no greatness can be availabe-)
sound, practical, commmon-sense man. lie
has read much and obscscrvcd more. The
whole financial policy Of our Government from
It's infancy. is as familiar to him, as the road to
his shop is 10 the mechanic. lie wai born and
reared among the practical men OF New Eng
land, and has been in close contact with the
shrewdest and souudest heads in America
Every thing, therefore, from him on the subject
OF the currency, or any other subject, of legisla-
ton. is entitled to respect and attention"

The anxiety manifested on this subject, how

MILTON.

At meeting Of about TIVE hundred Of the
Inhabitants of the town OF Milton, on the 5h
day OF October, 1910, the following preamble
and resolutions were unanimously adopted:
Whereas the administration of the general
government for the last ten or eleven years, has
been making rapid strides towards the cstab-
shmcnt Of practical monarchy, under the
pretended shield of the constitution. which is
essentially republican, if honestly and wisely
administered; and whereas the monarchical
propcnsities Of the present chief magistrate and
his immediate predecessor, are written uron the
pages OF our history in characters too lcgbe to
be msunde rsood," and evidenced by the fire.
Qucnt and audacious exercise Of the veto power,
upon questions OF eHpcdiency alone, OF which
the representatives Of the people ought 10 be
the exclusive judgcs--upon questions Of con-
sttutional construction, where the practice OF
the country for forty years, under the wsest
Legislators the world ever saw, and the decis-
ions of the constitutional tribunals OF the highest
resort, lad settled and di.sipated all doubts; by
the bold exercise Of the dubious and dapg.rou
power of removals of HONEST men IRON Office,
for the utteranee of political opinions adverse to
the rsieping dynasty; by rewarlng with their
places the syccphan''c and INSCRIPTIONS slaves
and hatterers Of power; by the enormous in
crease of the monled patronage Of the President
in rewarding prostituted party press, in letting
oose upon the people and stimulating with the
PROMISE Of reward hundred thousand office
holders, to deceive and harrass the people, ca,
out their substance, and defraud them of then

ding classes composing nnc-tenths Of the poo.
pie of these United States by striking frou
the constellation Of states one of its brightest
stars, in order to secure the passage Of that in
famous law and whereas, these anti-rcpubli-
can tendencies have become the settled policy
Of the present administration, and there 10 no
constitutional remedy for the sovereign people
against their trcacherous and unfaithful servants
except to diminish them, and to employ Other
agents
Therefore, Resolved, That We condemn, in
the most solemn manner, the foregoing obnox-
ious measures Of the administration, and tho
conduct of such members Of congress as have
given their support directly or remotely to al
| or any OF them.
| And whereas, the Hon. John Smith, now .
member OF congress from the fourth district in
this state, has identified himself with the present
administration by supporting many Of the above
mentioned measures, and the general policy Of
that administration, all Of which have recently
been condemned by a majority of thirteen Of
fourteen hundred of his constituents: and whore.
as, in speech delivered in congress last June.
and published and frankcd by him throughout
the district, in which he undertakes to cxculpate
himself for his intended vote in favor Of the obi.
Gus sub-trcasury bill, has declared "that he be.
lieves in the doctrine Of instruction as held BY
the party with whom he has the honor to aet,"
and "that the people will vndicaie their own
sagacity, integrity, and capacity for self-govorn.
ment: :" and whereas, the said Smith is pledged
to support the administration during the second
session Of the present congress, in carrying into
effect the aforesaid measures and policy and
whereas, the recent vote taken in said district
has cvnced the sagacify integrity and eonpe-
fency for sc!f-gorernm.m Of the constituents Of
Mr. Smith, and placed the seal Of their disap-
probation upon his congressional conduct
Therefore, Resolved, That, believing NJ
Smith to have been sincere in the foregoing do
elaratons in his speech, and that as he values
his character for consistency, and covets not tho
honors nor emoluments Of an Office holden
against the wishes and Judgment of large na-
jority Of his "sagacious" constituents, he 10 re-
specially requested forthwith to resign his ap-
pontment as member of congress from the fourth
congressional district Of Vermont; and tina, u

duly certified by the secretary OF this meeting,

GEN. SCOTT AND DIR. BEECHER.

We refer the reader to the testimony of these
two gentlemen, in reference to Gen. Harrison
Dr. BcCcher has for some years been neighbor
to him. and, among New England people, his
testimony or point of morals. will be taken as
at least equal to tina, Of the paid sercenar.es,
who ssslil the gallant old Chief.
Gen. Scott, it will be observed, bears most
unequN ocaI testimony Of the fair rcnown OF his
old companion in arms. ~, has often fallen in
my way (says hc,) 10 bear Jealous testimony TO
the distinguished services of Gen. HARRISON both
as a Statesman and a soldi,r. With those ser.
vices have long been familiar, and can only
attribute to gross ignorance To party n,alignty,
the recent nputations to which you allude."
"lf at the end Of the war with Gaeat Britain,
Che contnucs,) or at the end of that so success
fully wagcd against the north western indians,
any person had shnmeiuly impeached the cour-
aye Of Gen. Harrison, he would, ann fully per-
suaded, have had not only his patriotism but his
courage denied by every homes, hearted Ameri-
ram"
Gen. Scott has seen some service himself
and when such n man tells US that, in common
with the whole American army, he regards Gen
Harrison las one OF our most gallant and sue
cessfnl om,n,nlers," it is all we want TO know
on this point.
