DINNER AT THE LOG CABIN.

We owo an apology, for not being ablo to rive an
account of tho dinner at the Log Cabin the 25'h.
But by some strange oversight our reporter was not
on the ground, and we now find it impossible to col
lect the toasts. Eightyone old veterans sat down TO
the first table, at which SIMEON HooKEn, l0l years
old, presided, assisted by AporLos ArsriS, vico
president The scenc was one of SURPRISING interest
and the best spirit imaginable prevailed. Some excel

We know that VIC have much TO Struggle
against. An INSCRIPTIONS executive, with
ovcrgrown patronage, backed-by devoted
party, and controlling the whole resources of
the nation, is no contemplate opponent.
The administration have on foot Numerous
array. Ollicc-holders, and oflicc-scckcrs,
subsidized printers, post masters, ccnsus-a-
kers, collectors, inspectors, and all the under
lings of the custom-housc, contractors for pub
lie works, agents, sub-agents, and supcrir-
tcndents-a motley crew, whose name is
Legion. All these, and their rctaincrs, are
to be met, vanquishcd, discounted. We
have the best reasons for the cheering conf
dcncc that our sister states will well anttam-
ply redeem the pledges, which every day
brings us from distant quarters of the Union,
and we have no fears that Vermont, at the
final charge, will stain her well earned and
unspotted reputation. Vermont alone has
never bowed to the idols of the dominant
party, and sho will not now turn and aid in
setting up Dagon in his place again. Our
own state enjoying the undivided praise of
being found EVER FAITHFUL, is fortunately to
have the honor of being in the front rank in
the approaching preliminary contest, Of the
fall elections. But few states prccede us, and
VIC firmly trust, that on the first Tuesday in
September, we shall show our sister states
an example worthy of our charactcr-an
earnest of the victory which in subsequent
month is destined to perch upon the banners
of the friends of the integrity of the constitu-
ton. 1t is a leading object with our oppo-
nents to change the issue, and to divert the
attention of the frccmcn from the real qucs-
ton before us. They would not have you
influenced by what you have heard, what you
have seen, and what you have suffered
They would amasc and beguilc you with
misrepresentation concerning the remote
past, IN order that you may find less time for
inquiring into the corruptons of the present,
and the prospects of the future. But they
underratc the intelligence and patriotism of
the wings. We shall be deceived by no false
issues, we shall be diverted from our fixed
purpose of political reform by the revival of
no buried and forgotten animositcs.
Our opponents well know that at this mo-
mcnt the wing ranks cmbody vast majority
of the lawful trecmcn of the republic, and
their only hope is that what has been an hon
est difference of opinion may be converted

let us preserve our strength unimpaired by
division. Forgctlul of minor differences and
obsolete questions, let us act in concert upon
the great and cardinal points where all true
friends of their country are agreed, and let
us inscribe upon our banner the well-spokcn
words, "UNIoN AMONG TIE WmIGs FOR TIE
SAKE OF THE UNION"

TO The PEOPLE OF VERMONT.

FELLOW CITIZENS The purposes for
which the people of the several states of this
Republic united in the establishment of the
Federal Constitution, are declared by the
preamble of that instrument to be "to form
ga more perfect Union, establish Justice,
"insurc domestic tranquility, provide for the
" common defence, promote the general wel-
stare, and secure the blessings of Merty
"to themselves and their postcrity."
In the judgment of the sagcs of that day,
these general objects were not attainable by
the separate and Independent action of the
people Or legislatures of the individual states,
and they we're therefore wisely committed
10 the charge of a central representative
government, in which its due relative share
of power and influence was secured to each
independent sovereignty of the confcderacy
The constitution conicrs upon the national
Legislature all the powers supposed to bc
required for the attainment Of the objects SCI
forth in the preamble, and makes it the dut,
of the executive to suggest to Congress al
legislation needful for that purpose.
Whenever therefore these objects fail tc
be attained, in such good measure as the i'm

our choice is a citizen of tried and primitive
patriotism, of mistaken independence, of

who processes no enlightened regard for the

lodc-star of political principle, who declares
that he can raise his eyes no higher, and take

him TO discern and follow "thc footsteps of
