Democratic COnventiOn"~the Tariff and
the I, s, Bank,

The doings ofthe late democratic convention, at
Baltimore, shows most conclu5iyely that that party
is quite as destitute of honesty, in relation to the
issue and measures which its leaders keep before
the people of vital importance as are the wings.
For many years past this party has found more
fault with the wings on account Of their advocacy
of the Tariff and United States Bank, than all
other things put together But after il was fully
understood by the convention, that the saveocrats
overheard, there seems to have been an attempt
on the part of the north to make out sort of COM
promise in the nomination of Gen. CaSs. Hence,
ut one of the ballotings, he received more votes
than any other candidate; and almost as many as
all the rest. But Gen. Cass is known, the country
over, to be in favor ofthe Tariff. Did these wise
of the nation forget that the question of free
trade Uud the tariff WINS of the greatest at is
sue between them and the wings? So it would
seem, for, this ground there does not appear to
have been any objection to Mr.. Cass And what
was the course of things when Mr.. Wright refus-
ed to be candidated for Vice President under
Mr.. Polk? Why the Hon. John Fairfield of
Maine was the chosen man of the north, and re-
ceived by far the largest number of votes. But
Mr. Fairfield, when Governor of Maine, had COM
mtted the objectionable sin, by refusing to deiv-
er up Capt. Philbrook and Mr.. Kilerum, at the
demand of the Governor of Georgia, because a
slave had secreed himself in their vessel, while
lying in a southern port. He is therefore cashir-
ed, and George M. Dallas put in nomination.
But who is George M. Dallas? and what demo-
cratic exploit has he performed to entte him to
this high distinction in his party' Why, he is the
gentleman who wrote and introduced into the
House the new charter for the United States
Bank which Gen. Jackson vetoed, and voted for
it some sixty times So, it seems, that every dem
ocrat who votes the democratic ticket must vote
for an active, decided United States Bank man.
Are the democrats of Vermont ready to acknow
edge themselves pack of miserable hypocrites
and give their former professions of opposition t.
g that corrupt institution, the US. Bank" the lie
by voting this ticket merely for the sake of voting
for slave holding tyrant? We shall see,

Governor MattOckS' Letter.

To CALVIN TowNsLEY, Esq. Chairman of the
State Wing Central Committee:
SIR: As Wing Convention is soon to be called
to nominate State officers, and as may again be
proposed for Governor if remain silent, | take
the liberty to inform you and the Freemen of the
State, that most respectfully decline being a can
ddate for reelection. The reason for doing this,
having held the Office but one year, although I'M
doubleday anticipated, should he stated.
The overwhelming affection with which it has
pleased God 10 visit me has rendered me unfit to
lie the Chief Magistrate Of this intelligent State,
where there are so many of far superior quaIifica-
tions, and whose minds are not impaired by old age
and mental suffering.
In retiring forever from public life, desire to
express my gratitude to the people of the State
for the offices which, by their representatives they
have conferred upon me.
During the canvass for the Office which now
hold, the support ofmy political friends and es-
pecially the Wing press, deserves my warmest ac-
their Presses, with few small exceptions,) gave
me battle in manner that was fair and honorable,
for which | offer them my thanks.
People Of Vermont, adleu! have known you
long and love you well-and may the Almighty
have you in his holy keeping.
JOHN MATToCKS.
Peacham, April 10, 1874.
Whatever may have been thought of gov Mat
tocks as politician or his administration as gov
ernor, no one possessed of a common share of hui
manity, can read the above letter and not drop
tear Of sympathy with him in his affections. May
he find that comfort and support in the religion of
the Savior, to which we understand he has resolv-
ed to devote the remainder Of his days, which the
labors and honors of political life have never afford
ed him.

Third District.

We had the pleasure of attending the District
Convention at Hinesburgh on Thursday and Fri
day of last week. The number in attendance was
two and three hundred, we should
Judge-and the meeting was spirited throughout
There were present, the Hon. Horato Needham.
of Bristol, heretofore prominent democrat: Law
renee Brainard, Esq. of St Adams, pioneer in
the Antimasonic struggle; Hon. VIM. P. Bripgs.
Rev. Cyrus Prndle, and many others that have
stood high in the favor of the other parties and Of
community, but who, with multitude of other
strong heads and warm hearts, have had the con-
Vlctlon forced upon their minds, by the previous
course, and more particularly by the late nomina-
tons of both the leading parties, that SLAVERY
RULES THE NATION, and that, in the language of
Henry Clay, "meither of the two great parties have
any aim or design at ABoLITIoN:" consequently,
no alternative is left but for he friends of Ameri-
can liberty to unite in a Liberty Rarty, and stake
their Olives, their fortunes and their sacred hon
or'' upon the issue. And we can assure the pro-
slavery parties in the third district that in the bat
tie which is there to be fought between the friends
of universal liberty and the supple tools of the
nIdFt pONGI tey VIII encounter most OF LFleu ana
indomitabe spirits.
WILLIAM H. French, Esq, of Wiston, the
candidate at the last election, was again put in no
mnaton. Mr.. French is a practical farmer, of
superior intelligence, sense and integrity, and a
tried and true friend of liberty; and shond he be
elected, as we ardenty desire he may, his constit-
uens may rest assured, that when the southern o.
verseers ask Congress to appropriate the hard ear
nlngs of the North to catch runaway slaves, or to
apply gag to the mouths of freemen, or to pass
resolutions which give the lie direct to the unani-
nous and often-expressed opinions of the Vermont
Legislature, Mr. French will neither cover under
the lash, or dodge the question by running the
h0use!-J p
