The northern galaxy. [volume] (Middlebury, Vt.) 1844-1848, 1844-07-10

Focos come up TO the help of Slavery and
Texas, IN the support Of these men, and that
they do in fact endorse the tenor of that reso-
luton at their late National Convention
which declared "the remuneration of Texas
at the earliest practical period as a great
American measure which this Convention
recommends to the cordial support Of the de-
mOcracy Of the Uuion;" that this they know
and fesl, and yet for party's sake, n1adiy per-
sist in placing in the most responsible stations,
men against whom the best feelings of their
nature revolt; while on the other hand, the
views of orr candidates maniully expressed,
meet our most cordial concurrence, and that
under the banner of Clay and Frehnghuysen,
we expect and hope to see Loco Foco cor
ruption and intrigue whirled like atoms of
dust from the chariot wheels of every North
ern State, as they roll back into their ancient
tracks in the ranks of republicanism.
ReSoired, That the swelling mass which
the land of Allen, Stark and Warner, sent to
the late State Convention at Burlington, and
has this day shown itself here, outnumbering
the great meetings called together by the po-
tent and sacred name and influence Of the la
menied Harrison, are the sure earnests of the
determination of Vermont TO retain her posi-
ton as the never setting star in the political
firmament and that we do now pledge our
selves by our energy and example TO aid in
giving our electors majority of $4,000 next
November, and to remind our sister Stale,
n. York, that she has, and can again, add for
( herself 5000 TO this majority, and that with
her help 'our union is perfect and victory
certain.
ResOlred, That we respond with our whole
hearts to the nominations late made by our
district and State Conventions; that we see
in George p. Marsh, the scholar, the gentle
man, and the honest man, and will add an
other term at least to his Congressional Ca
reer; that with VIM. Slade, our candidate
for Governor we feel that we are in the lead
of an able soldier, who has done duty fear
lessIy in the ranks, and at the head of the
Regiment.who has consistently and ably rep
resented this district for II consecutive years
in Congress, and whom the people OF Yer
mont will in part repay this fall. by tremen
dous majority for hun as GOVERNOR.
The Convention was then addressed by
Messrs. Wooster and E. J. Phelps OF Middle
bury, w. Slade jr. Esq, Of Ohio, Z. A.
Stansbary, Esq. of Burlington, and the Hon.
VIM. Slade.
The speaking interspersed with music from
the Band continued until six p. NJ. The day
was most propitious and the utmost harmony
and good feeling prevailed. Hundreds OLA
dies graced the scene with their presence,
and throughout the proceedings, necessarily
prOtracted as they were the mass of freemen
surrounding the stand, manifested not only
attention but the highest enthusiasm.
On motion of w. Slade jr. Esq. the hear
ty thanks Of the Convention were unanimous
ly voted to the Wings of Vergennes for the
marked kindness and hospitality extended to
their neighbors from abroad, on this occasion,
and for the handsome style in which the
latch string was out" and with three cheers
for the Wings of Vergennes and three more
for its Wing ladies the Convention adjourn
