half Of the Liberty Party, and against

trIoulIon, IN support Of The great doctrines
OF abolition, be seriously recommended for
the universal adoption Of our friends in this
4 Stale.
ReSoired, That we believe that we can
temploy no means so efficient and so con-
vlncing 10 convert the public mind 10 The
! principles Of abolition, as the monthly dis
trlbution Of Well written tracts, sent 10 every
house in the several towns in this county.
RsSolUed, That we recommend that our
friends form Liberty Associations, in their
several towns in this county, 10 consist OF
male and female, above IA wears Of age, and
/ that said association in said town, select as
officers experimenting commitIeee of Two,
with Secretary, whose duty il shall be 10
divide said Anti Slavery Associations of
said society into subcommittee of Two, and
| then cut said town into as many sections as
there are Sub committees, In said associa
! ton.
Resotred, Said experimenting commit
1 tee furnish said sub committees mouthlY
with tracts for distribution In each sub
committees section, aud petitions on some
| point OF slavery, TO present for signature 10
] the persons residing in said section, and also
furnish the sub committees with copy Of
the town constitution, requesting those 10
] sign who are willing 10 become members Of
our town societies, and that said sub COM
/ mittees 60 from house To- house III their
section, presenting petitions for signature
and distributing said tracts monthly. .@>
RESOLVED. Ii be recommended that each
| signer OF town association be con, idered as
agreeing 10 pay six cents per month to The
sub committees 10 pay the same 10 superin-
ltending committee, whose duty ii shall be
TO pay ii over 10 the County Tract Distri-
button as fund to pay for tracts, petilion<,
and the other services of the county dislrib-
uIor. sir "a. ..~
Resolced, That we believe one person
would be sufficient TO distribute, monthly,
the tracts 10 The experimenting com nitlees
! OF the towns Tor three counties, and the
county tract distributor should be supported
from the price charged for the tracts. -.
I ReSoLred, That we believe 80 families
could be supplied with tracts II times in a
year for the price Of single newspaper, Oh
| this system. -
! ReSoiced, If we can adopt this system,
and set all the friends Of the slave TO work
! iand that TOO without infringing on then
/ regular business in their several avocarions,
we firmly believe that in less than one year
a majority OF the people in such town would
| sympathiZe and act with the Liberty Party.
On motion Of r.. r. IhralI,
Voted that committee of three from,
each town be appointed to nominate Sena.

Whereas, il is The bolnden duty Of the
Federal Government 10 aff1rd TO the in.
dustry Of free labor or this country all
adeqbae protection against The paupel
system OF The old world; and whereas il
is the well known interest and policy o.
the slaveshoiders 10 oppose all such pro
: lection, therefore
, ReSOl1ed, That there is no way Of secur
ing this object but by uniting into grea
Liberty Parry, for the protection of the rights
and interests OF free labor. -:
: ReSolred, That we regard the professions
, Of the Wings aud Democrats of Vermont
in favor Of this policy, as being insincere
so long as they main.ain their connection

: ResolGed, That SO long Us neither III

the South, il must necessarily be pro-s SLAYER
in its action. ...-,..~.~>.. p.
/ ReSoLued, That so long as either Of Ties
: parties manifest disposition 10 bring for

southern principles" as candidates for til
presidency, we can regard their anil-slaVer
! professions only as hollow pretence.
y The following resolutions have been re
!. ceived by the Secretary, since the Convex

v on Resolutions, and were not acted upon b
S the Convention, they having been mislad du

If Whereas the recent Wing Conventions
, Vermout have been wonderfully yocife
Gus in their Queries against SLAYER,
;. while at Ihe same time all their par
r efforts are directly calculated TO upho

in mere hypocrilical cant, thrown Out as ST
nails Of distress, TO decoy the Liberty Par
TO the pumps OF The old, rotten, Wing sh
of Slavery, 10 keep her from sinking,-as
mere roaming up, by The pirate, of a friend
