CHARLES PAINE AND CHARLES
X. WILLIAMS.


However anxious as we trust the wings
ere TO release the African from lhraldom, at
the present crisis they are too much engaged
in self defence against the scourge of loco.
focolsm, to enter heartily into the third par.
ty scheme now countenauced by Judge W.
Indeed they have at least equal confidence
in the abolitionism of Charles Paine, as OF
Charles X. Williams. One, certainly, has
never given the world occasion 10 question
his political creed. Both have made strong
professions offriendship for the slaves
But although coming last, we do not see
that the Chief Justice has got the better of
his competitors The wings of Vermont
have ever been the warm and hearty friends
of abolitionism, and with Charles Paine they
will 60 for it to the very verge of the con-
stitution. Beyond this nothing can be done
without dissolution of the Union. Does
Charles X. mean 10 60 any further, when
he speaks of immediate, rigorous and res.
dilute action 10 abolish slarery?" The time
may arrive when all his may be done by
the North. When they find, what heaven
forbid, that all hopes of protection are at an
end, and they are forever TO be dragooned
by the slaveocracy ofthe South they will be
ready for dissolution of the Union. 1t
will then be no longer blessing. but curse.
But the existence Of slavery at the South is
not sufficient inducement for the applica.
lion ofthis last frighiful remedy. Its most
appalling consequences light first upon the
guilty. If Charles X. Williams does no,
go beyond the Union and the Constitution.
what inducements have the wing abolition.
isis to vote Tor him in preference to Charles
Paine? Why cradle third party into a
slckly existence al this threatening crisis,
upon such slender distinctions i? Why dis
sever the ranks of the friends of freedom, 10
aid the triumph Of The common enemy, and
enable him 10 riot upon the liberties of both
the white man and the slave? When the
momentary excitement has past, and the
boon forever lost, those who may have done
this, will scowl over the bitter fruits of their
course, and abhor their own needless folly
and madness.
The locos look with malicious pleasure
upon fhe pre- sesce of another candidate for
wing votes in the field, and chuckle at the
success of leir ruse de gerre in producing
this result. They have no fears that a sin.
Gle vote OF their party will be Cast for Judge
Williams. They draw their life breath from
the slaveocracy of the South, and loathe alb.
olitionism with perfect hatred. They
have, and will be its deadly enemy, while
they have a name 10 i've. Under such cir
cunlstanccs, and in presence ofsuch foe,
we call upon wings and wing abolitionists
to sustain the unity of the party. Con.
ccntrate upon the regularly nominated can.
dIdate; resolve 20 give the enemy Water
loo defeat, or submit 10 be ground down in
abjectness, perjury and want under the iron
heel of reckless party, who for years have
waged savage warfare upon every thing
dear 10 an American citizen.

AMERICAN INDUSTRY MUST BE

Freemen Of Vermont. look on this picture.
One day during last week heavy load of

be manufactured in noig hhoring manu-

"Resolred, That the true principles of
the Federal Government is to confine its
action TO the objects SPECIFICALLY
enumerated in the Constitution, leaUing

The resolution in question was adopted
by the State Democratic Convention OF
lS4l. and was taken, with others, from GER
tain resolutions which had been passed by
a democratic convention in New Hamp-
shire. The fact that the resolution was
copied from some New Hampshire resolu-
tons appeared upon the face of the proceed

that no one could have made the statement
that was the author of that resolution,
without doing so in the face of the contra
diction afforded by the public records of
those proceedings. was not Sir, on the

but advised against its introduction, as be-

into an expression of host illty by us, to the

Those who maintain that the principles
'ci Free Trade are for The exclusive advan-
"tage Of the South and that 10 advocate
those principles is TO protect the South, 90
great injustice 10 those enlarged, expan-
"slvc and liberal doctrines. To suppose
"ihat the doctrines of Free Trade are 10 be
"n"uIcaicd FOE the particular and special
benefit of any une particular section, or
'c'ass, or interest, is 10 render them obnox-
ious 10 the objections which are fatal, in
my opinion, TO what is called The ''protec-
tive" Tariff policy. The principles of
Free trade are calculated 10 do Justice 10
sal portions OF the Union: they tend, | will
not say ioprotect, since that word has been
.'misused, but 10 give free scope 10 indus

10 prevent special legislation for special
