A FEW WORDS TO ABOLIrIONlSTS.
As one who has fol several years felt II deep
and abiding interest in the antl-slavery cause, we
have very great respect for those who, from
deliberate conviction that the organization of a
distinct political party, upon anti-siavery grounds,
is essential TO The abolition OF this crying evil,
have affiliated themselves together and brought
their candidates into the field. And could it be
shown TO us that this step would have 50 impor-
tuut bearing our political abolition friends i'm.
ugine, upon the end which we desire in common
with them, we would buckle on our arInor and go
into the hottest Of The fight even with he prospect
of seeing our Slate and mutton brought under the
blighling and destructive dominion OilOcofocoisn,
-hoping, that when deiverance should have been
proclaimed TO the captive, thele would he sulfi-
cient sense OF gratitude engendered in his bosom
to prompt him 10 unite with us in relieving our
common country from the control of those prn-
cipleS, which, if carried out, would not only rivet
the chains OF the blacks, but reduce the whites TO
a like state OF vassaage. But it must he borne
in mind that this point is not settled, al least IN the
affirmative. The earliest and strongest friends OF
the antl-savery cause in our State differ upon The
subject Of political organization urge ma
jory we believe, OF those who have been most
prominent in this cause and have viewed The sub
ject in oil it's lights and shadows deprecaie the
formation OF such party, at least, at presenl.-
The organization OF political abolition party,
then, Is, ut least question OF doubtful erpediencp.
With Whig Abolllionisls, the question 10 be de-
cided is not between Whggery and The abolition
Of slduery, as has been repronchiuly said by some
whose zeal runs away with their Iudgment-but
between the success OF those principles and meas
ures which we deem essential TO the prosperity
aud happiness of our Stale 81 country equal rights
to ALL, among the rest,l on the one hand, aud On
the other The ADAPTATION Of political party TO The
abolition of SLAVERY, together with the success of
the ecofoco party in the State aud country. And
now we nsk every Wing abohonst TO view this
subject in all its bearings--look at the develop
ment Of principles which The locoloco party are
making in Congress principles which would de-
prive the laboring man of his scunty pillance und
snatch from the hand Of industry its Just reward
and then Judge where lie our hopes as people
and nation.

We copy from the last Patriot us follows:


'The present reduce minimum on wool from

Now the object Of the biz revenue and these rates defeat
This, then, is Bentons ground: the PROTEC-

beg to ask the farmers of Vermont what sort Of

to compete with your finest ,OoOl large quantities
of fine foreign pool are annually imported. TOO
HIGH, iorsooh! Benton knows, and every 9th
er man who can rend the English language knows,
that much OF The South American wool is not
coarse; it is taxed by the bill cents and 80 per
cent. and that he calls TOO HIGH But hear
him agaln,-
Gan the wool that ia imported will be so managed as to bring

classification of imported wool has been heretofore
Why, that nine millions of pounds weight of foreign

Aye--but that was under an act which admit
ted fine wool duty free if il cost less than cents,
aud The low average price was produced in part
by mixing and by false invoices. This bill ex-
pressly limits the low duty TO coarse wool, and
imposes tremendous duties in case Of attempted
frauds. The government is interested 10 carry
out this act strictly, for revenue, and no doubt
would do it, And mark this TOO: The average
cost of this coarse wool Benton says was IA
cents then much of it must bear the duty OF 3
cents and 80 per cent. by this bill-which he says
is too high. Benton further has the hnrdihooG to
argue that good wool would lie mixed with course.
Ifit is done, then this bill provides that the coarse
shall be valued at the price of the best, and taxed
with the highest duty So evident is the humbug-
gerry of Bentons speech OH this subject that we
