formed, sometime craving food; at Others
loalhing the same. l have reason &c
thank God that | have been convinced
that it is in vain to attempt to make walel
better for drink. | have since abandoned
all kinds Of drink except water, save for
medicinal purposes.
The experience of fifteen years has
taught me that the smoke Of tobacco is moi
necessary to regulate my stomach. The
use oftobacco is mysterious; first, because
the natural taste is averse to it. 1t is a
we'll known fact that among all tribes Of
insects and animals, only one is found to
be companion with man in this most
filthy practice; viz: a large loalhsome
worm, which lives upon the p lant.-
What lady would choose for companion
one whose lips were constantly smeared
with the nauseous juice Of this filthy
weed2 Much less would man select
for a companion. a woman who was in
any way addicted to the use of tobacco,
and yet il it is justifable in one sex, why
not in the other? Neither could parent
conscienciouslyadvise his children 10 make
use of it in any Of its various forms. 10
the second place, it is a mysterious prac-
lice, because most of those addicted to il:
acknowledge it to be a foolish and njuri-
Gus habit, and would in no wise advise d
young friend TO engage in it; yet, they
teach it by example And even many
professed christians, while recommending
TO the world the religion of Chris, one of
ethe first princi pies of which is " sell deni-
al" whose foundation says except a
man deny Aimsef and take up his cross
he cannot be my disciple" do it while
rolling tobacco as a sweet morsel uader
their tongues; acknowledging al the same
time that it is a sinful AMI foolish prac-
tice2 trust that the evil of this practice
is apparent, and will call forth the ener-
gies of ADLER pens. Among other subjects
of Temperance, let this by no means be left
in the rear. f. w.

To tho Wings of Vermont.

The undersigned, your State Central
Committee, having met at Montpelier, for
purposes contemplated by their appoint
ment, embrace the occasion 10 make TO
you brief address. They are impeIed
to do so both by their attachment to the
principles of the party whom it is their
pride TO represent, and by the near ap-
proach of another period when these prin,
ciples, maintained with extraordinary
unanimity by the great Wing party of the
Union, are to be submitted for The approx
al or rejection of the People Of the United
States.
Fellow Wings, another Presidential
election is at hand. Brief as has been
the interval, since the stirring excilements,
and glorious srumphs of 1910, it has
been long enough to render itself infam-
Gus by the most unparalleled treachery
which ever disgraced the political annals
of any country and, to a very great ex-
tent, to defeat the good results which
those Iriumphs were designed and adapted
10 secure. 1t cannot be doubted that, at
the close of the political campaign of 1910,
the people of the United States expected
long repose from extraordinary political
excitement Their efforts then, were cal.
culated 10 produce this desirable end; and
no one can doubt, if those efforts, emf,
nentIy successful as they were, had met
their expected reward, thai The condition

Twenty.Eighth CONGRESS.

Washington City,
FRIDAY, JAN, 5, 1914.

RlDAf, jan, D, 1914.
| must say littIe about Congress.
No business was done on Monday, New
Years. but almost every body called on
the President, and very large number
on Mr.. Adams. AS did not wish to pay
what did not owe, my visit was confn-
I'd 10 one. The Senate has done but
very Iiltle business, held ote sitting an
hour in day. None of the doubtful APP
po;nlmenls to Off 'e have yet been voted
upon. Messrs. Upshur and Nelson are
confirmed, as Secretary Of Stale and Al
torney General.
In the House, the Bill 70 refund Gen.
Jacksons fine, Obtained, the preccdency.
Mr. Adams, however, managed to get
the consent of the House. on Tuesday, 10
let him report the new code of rules pre-.
pared by the Select Committee on that
subject, which he moved should be made
the order of TIE day for Tuesday next.-
But by some blunder or some legerde-
main, it is not certain which, that motion
was lost, and the effect was, that the re-
port would merely go on the docket,
(Which is never rcvoked,) and could not
be called up for action bat by vote Of
two thirds. The next day, the roles
were suspended TO allow the call by
Safes for resolutions. Mr.. Cass, of New
York, in his turn offered resolution,
that the vote of yesterday be re-consdered.
SINE attempts were made 10 get aside of
it. but it became clear that he had the
slave party on the hip. As the dispose
of this question would interrupt the call
for resolutions, it was finally agreed by
unanimous consent, TO lay aside this mo-
iion, until all the States had been called,
and then give it its place. The call was
not finished till this morning, when G. J.
lngersolI had the unblushIng fneanness
to move that The House 60 into Commit
tee of The Whole, on Gen. Jackson's fine
This, if it had been carried, would proba-
bly, have placed the rules beyond reach
for this session. and if it Rad been put,
would probably have been carried, be-
cause OF the reluctance of the majority to
give vote which would have even the
appearance of slight to Sen. |. But Mr.
White, of Ky, rose and gave lngersol
SUCH TeUuhG IOT MS VIOldIlOH Oh Tue
courtesy Of the House, such an act as had
never beer even attempted. before, that he
hung down his head and withdrew his
motion The motion to reconsider the
vote of Tuesday was then put, and carried
triumphanly, yeas 1902 nays 78 The
Van Buren shareholders then tried to
evade discussion, and the question loo, by
a motion to re-commit the report, but

a place in New Jersey, near New
York city, and it is surmised that HI
is thereby a candidate for this Office
At any rate, l suppose it is an aban
donment Of the expectation of being
again a Senator from Massachusetts
I he best appointment, among those
named in the papers, would be tina
of Daniel Lord, of New York, a man
by the structure of his mind, hi:
moral character, and Professions
habits, better fitted to adorn that sta
ton than any other that has beer
named, and above all, not politi,
clan. But for that very reason
fear his chances are small.
The question of Texas seems to
be entirely lost sight Of here. Ir
fact, the shareholders are kept suffi-
ciently busy in Tying to hold the
ground they have got, to think OF
trying for any more. Let our petit
tons and other agitations be kept
up, with frequent communications tc
the Northern representatives from
their constituents, so as TO keep the
slave party not only on the defen-
sive but on the retreat, and we may
discharge our anXieties abont Texas,
l do trust the day is past in which
the friends Of liberty will stand on
the mere defensive. Let US press
the battle home now, until slavery
itself shall give way.
A good deal has been said in the
papers about Mr.. Adams failing
strength. But the results of his eff
forts thus far tel! that story. 1t is
true, he was somewhat exhausted
by his laborious Western tour, such
an undertaking in winter for Il man
of nearly four score! And a cold
he took on Lake Erie weakened his
voice considerably. But he was in
admirable health when he left home
to 60 to Cincinnati, and is fast re-
covering the sound and lively ap-
pearance he then presented. AT
any rate, those who have encounter
ed the old man don't think he has
failed very much. AS the Irishman
said Of Frederick Douglass, " If you
call that man but half a mayor, pray
what would you think Of a whoul
one !"-so they may sayaof Mr.. Adj
ans, if this is what you call failing,
deliver me'from any more such fail
ings.
The renewal of the charter of
Washington city, will bring up sun
dry important topics for discussion,
and as the various monstrous charg-
es here have lain unredressed for ten
years-many of them twenty, though
the mere dread of touching the ques-
ton Of slavery, the whole subject
has become burdensome, difficult &
complicated. If the proper means
could be employed here, in the city
and in Congress, think they would
cut the knot at once, by abolishing
slavery. 1t is the onl y way.

and as a first step in this organization.
we respectfully suggest that Wing
meeting he held in every town, or by
union of towns, on Thursday, the 22d

denying patriotism. his love of consiiu-
tional liberty, that we would remember,
and his principles. exempIifed in the ad-
mlnislraLon OF our country, that we de.
sire to maintain. We ask you not, how
ever, to meet on that day, in the spirit of
pGrtguoryet as citizens OF Vermont alone.
AS the name and the character of Wash
iGgton are the inheritance OF cur whole
country, 50 let our aims and views on
that day, comprehend the welfare of that
country. Let US meet as AMERICANS:
and measuring our political principles
and aims by the standard of his, whose
fame has rendered The day iIIustrious TO
all time, we shall inspire ourselves with
new zeal in their behalf, when we find as
we assuredly shall, TO how great an ex-
tent they are identical. In this spirit as
semole, fellow wings, and you will have
begun the contest ir a manner which
shall sustain you TO triumphant result,
and enable you to bestow the electoral
vote Of "unconqCered Vermont" upon the
statesman whom your delegates at Baltj'
more shalt present for your suffrage, by
ma ority which shall be worthy the
