The Liberty Party and The Coiored poters

The Liberty Party and the Colored Voters.
We copy the following article from the NORTH
ern STAR paper conducted by coored citi-
zens in New York State. There is truth in
everyaline of it. We do not know colored
citizen who is either Liberty man or Loco.
foco. The Northern Star says:
We have now briefly examined the means.
so lar as we have been able to discover them, bv
which the Liberty party aims to abolish slavery
FOR the reasons given, we do not believe the
means can accomplish the aims. One word as
10 the measures OF the Liberty party. We
predicted, in the columns of the Colored Amer
can, some years ago, that this political party
would iall' as political party, to abolish slave
Ty Our reason then, was, and now is, that
the party must fail to abolish slavery, because
u mas changed its issue---has forsaken anti
slavery, and adopted for self. The party
aims at, not the abolition OF slavery, but the
possession OF Office, as its primary object; abo
Gtion is secondary, and is rapidly becoming
tertiary object with them. Office being The
primary object, necessarily absorbs their great
est labor, and what prevents them from getting
into office, is the immediate or secondary field
of their abors.
The Wing party, because il has had the
good fortune TO do some auti-slavery work
thereby iorestalling Liberty party work-has
NO'iiO !" " NY oPeOiai idVOI OF the Liberty
party. We believe that the Liberty party men
hate Whiggery more than they hate slavery,
and they love office more than they love anti
slavery.
We fear these office-seeking Liberty men,
We doubt the sincerity of the men who make
the bleeding hearts of suffering slaves, and the
sympathies which those slaves excite, a means
by which they shall crafty their vauting am
bition. And we speak, in this matter, the
views OF very large proportion of the free
coored people Of the free States.

RADICALIsM IN NEW HAMpsuIRE.

AT the recent Democratic State Convention held
at Concord, Gov. Hubbard presided In his OPEN
ing speech he avowed bis firm adherence to the
radical doctrines of his famous Curry letter, in re-
lation to Corporations, which doctrines have been
incorporated into the Revised Statutes, and said,
mo man can hereafter be elected TO Office in this
State unless he advocates these doctrines" This
sentiment was received with applause by the con.
vention.
In the resolutions of the same convention the
radical doctrines were re-avowed with erprcss ref
erenee to Rail Road charters, which resolutions were
declared to be passed unanimously. The resou.
tions as follows.
IL. Resolved, That any law compelling the citizen
to surrender his property to the Of any private
poraton would be arbitrary encroachent upoa the
great principle of equal rights and contrary to the spr
II of the constitution.
IS. Resolved, That land taken for the use of any
railroad corporation is not taken for "pubc use" with
In the meaning Of the constitution and that the right of
way, as commended for by railroads. is clearly uncons
tuuonal and ought not to be granted.
IL. Resolved, That section lst chapter 142 of the
revised statutes which declares that no rail road corpo
ration shall take any land for the use of said corpora
ton, without the consent of the owner thereof is
surety IN accordance with the spirit of the consu-
uon is essential to the preservation of the rights Of
property, and ought not to be repealed.
10. Resolved, That the principle of individual liza
bity which holds the private property of stockholders
OF corporations liable to pay the debts of said corpora
tons, is necessary for the protection of community
against losses, by the frauds and msmanagements Of
private coporations-that it works we'll and ought not
to be abandoned
The Keene Sentinel must have a wonderful de-
veloPement of hope, to dream even of getting fa-
vorable charter from such radicalisln.

Mr.. RYTHER Dear Sir,-Let the Clay Bugle
be sounded tins week in the vales the hills and
on the mountains, SO that we shall have glorious
gathering Of the Wings at Newiane the third of
tons, so needfu in l775 to win our liberties, in or
der that they may be aroused to maintain them and
to sustain the same vital principles for which the
heroes of that eventul period fought. II Is a time
when every American feeling calls upon the Wings
TO rally again around the standard OF their liber-
ties, and to put forth their whole strength III de-
fence of American interests-the protection OF the
laborer and industry of the farmer and mechunc.
We say then, let the Wings awake and put on their
whole armor for the contest, if they would sustain
the Wing Tariff of 1912, which is now productive
of the most beneficial influence upon all classes
upon all departments of industry, and carrying
plenty and happiness to every cottage in our land
Our opponents are maIshalling party with PrincI-
pies and measures dangerous to that glorious I'm
ion established by the Wings oil the revoluuon,-
dangerous to the vital interests OF our State aud
Country. They have nominated their candidates
for the two offices in the gift of the people, and
those same candidates openly and boldly declare
themselves hostile to the Tariff OF lS42: The
southern papers that most earnest IN their ap.
peals to the people for the election OF Polk and
Dallas are filled every week with spirit oil dead
ly hostility to the Tariff and they distinctly pro-
claim that they have found their candidates, who
will crush it as soon as they clothed with the
power to do It,
Let not the honest farmers and mechanics OF
Vermont be deceived who are called upon to rally
under the banner of Polk and Dallas, unless they
like the policy of sending fifty millions of our mon
ey annually to purchase the broadcoths and cass
meres of British manufacturers-unlesst they like
the idea of furnishing employment and money t'
build up British manufactures and British mechan
les, instead of our own manufacturers and me
chanics who furnish the market for our produce
say beware, farmers and mechanics OF Vermont
and be not deceived by the leaders and office seek
ers of the Polk and Dallas party, who hypocritcal
ly pretend to be Tariff men. Trust your Interests
in the hands of the tried, the able, the accomplish
ed statesmen and champions of the 1ariff-HEN
