such an occasion, may, at that time, be sus-
pended, and that the people may assemble IN
their usual places ofpublic worship, and with
humility and reverence, consecrate the day to
the customary religious solemnltles. Let us,
at that time with sincere desires, present our

To THE YOUNG MEN OF ADDISON COUNTY.
At meeting of the Young mems Temper
ance Society, held on The 22d of Feb. last, {
resolution was adopted. constituting the mem
bers fthc Executive Board q committee, with
instruction 10 correspond with the several lem.
perance societies throughout the county, and
individuals in those towns where temperance
societies do not exist, respecting The expedi-
ency of cooperating with one another in con-
certing measures for establishing q Young
MEMS County Temperance Society.
The You g mems Temperance Society ct
Middlelbury, has, during the short time since
lis organization, met with the most encourag-
ing success in eifecting tina; reformation TO
the consummation Of which its labors are Chief
ly directed; and the prospects which are now
presented are sufficiently lattering 10 stimulate
lis prompt action and the taking Of more COM
prehensive measures for promoting the inter.
ests of this cause.
Not less encouraging has been the success
that has attended the efforts of other societies
in some of the neighboring towns; and we re-
quest them to accept our hearty congratulatlon
for the hattering prospects that invite them
to future exertions, and our sincere thanks for
their exalted patriotism in embarkinS IN this
common cause ofhunanlty.
Deeming the interests and Importance of the
cause such as to require general cooperation
of all the temperance societies in the county,
and looking, as we do, upon the young men as
being every way competent to effect this desir-
ed object, the Committee in behalf of this So
ciety most respectfully solicit correspondence
with the different societies in the county, on the
subject of organizing a County Temperate C
Society; and request all young men favorable
to the cause of temperance in those towns
where temperance associations do not exist, to
make all consistent exertions in forming such
societies in their own town.
As no definite plan has been formed for con-
stituting county temperance society, the Com
mittee will, with pleasure e, concur with meas
ures recommended by other societies or indi-
viduals, and do solicit advice and information
from all who are willing TO favor them with
their opinions upon this subject.

PROTEETION TO AMERICAN
INDUSTRY.

We copy the following articles from the
Madisonan, paper published at Washington.
and supposed TO be, more than any other jour-
nal, in the confidence of the Executive. We
rejoice to perceive, from that quarter, a deci-
ded inclination TO foster the domestic products
and the industry of the Country-and dispo-
sition towards that course of policy, without
the pursuit of which this Country can never
regain its position Of prosperity. 1t is not pos
sible that the President of the United States
can do his Country 4 greater service, in the
present posture of her affairs, than TO give his
sanction and influence TO measures Of a deci-
.ded character, for the encouragement of her
manufactures, and the protection or hes domes-
tic labor.

tie. In the events which have happened, and
amidst the circumstances which surround it,
it asks one thing from the American people
and that is fair trial. If they will protect
if against the effects of unjust Remuneration in
advance, and judge of its merits or dement's
as they may be disclosed in the sequel, it will
have right to complain, and, so far as | am
concerned will not complain of the final judy
ment of the country.
Let it be judged by its measures by the
degree of care it shall manifest to maintain, the
honor and interest of the United States in their
Foreign Relations; by the disposition it shall
evince towards reasonable provision for pub
lie defence, on the land and on the water; by
its recommendations on the great subjects of
revenue and finance; by its cooperation in
all practicable means of retrenchment and re-
form; by its impartial regard to all interests,
and all parts ofsthis country; and, above all,
by its remembrance, on its forgetfulness, Of
the solemn edmonton of him, whose ever glo-
rious name and services you commemorate,
that the main pillar of our independence, pro-
perty and happiness, will ever be found to be,
that "Unity of Government which constitutes
us one People"
