subject The Vicksburg (Miss.) Sentinel has
the following comments on Repeal, From every
section of the country we read of Repeal meetings
humorous and enthusiastic, breathing forth the
sentiments and feelings of freemen toward the sut-
fering and oppressed millions of unhappy Ireland
Now is the time for the friends of Ireland, the
friends of human rights everywhere, to give ex-
preston to their sentiments Change but word
or two, and the article becomes 'incendary.'
'From evory section of the country we read of
abolition meetings, numerous and enthusiastic,
breathing forth the sentiments and feelings of free
men towards the suffering and oppressed millions
of unhappy .Anerica. Now is the time
for the friends of America, the friends of human
rights every where, to give expression to their
sentiments,' Not less incendlary was the Taber-
nacle speech of Robert Tyler at Boston By
changing few proper names, it might have been
taken for RemOnd'S or Garrison's,

pie of the General Welfare" or of "Strict con-
struction.''
N, B. The fact that the Speaker is a frst-rate
Democrat, and a zeal Gus stekler for the true
Virginia Doctrine, don't shed Il particle Of light
on this case, because it inheres in the nature of Il
Virginia politician to be on the side opposite to
his principles about half the time, and so it is inn
possible to tell under which sign he acts in any
given case.
There are 80 desks for reporters, and suppose
under this very democratic dynasty, 81 reporters
are to have monolopy of the business of news
paper correspondence at Washington If the
people of the free states are in favor of that mon
opoly, they had better get it extended to the mails
SO that only 50 newspapers shall be carried thro'
the country. At any rate, it will be well for the
citizens to require of their candidates for Con
gress at the next election, a distinct pledge that
they will vote for no STAKEHOLDER as Speaker Or
perhaps still more efectual way will be, to vote
for men so well known that they won't need a
pledge. venture to say, that if there are doz-
en- true Liberty men sent to the next Congress
from Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, VT
New York, Ohio, Illinois and Michigan, | shall
be able to resume my seat as reporter, let who
will be Speaker.
By the leave of Providence, my next weeks
communication will be prepared in my editoria
chair at home. "Sweet-sweet home" never wa
more welcome than it will be now.

REPEAL AND ABOLITION.

writer in the Bay State Democrat, Boston
paper, speaks of Repeal and Abolition, thus:-
sRepeap means that the millions of Ireland
shall be relieved Of oppression.
abolition means that the millions of America
shall be delivered from oppression, Both are holy
enterprises; but let no American citizen do more
for the former, than he is willing to do for the lat
ter.
Shareholders stultify themselves when they treat
O'Connell's abolition opinions as of rccent origin.
But even more obtuse must their inteccts have
been, not to have discovered that the principles of
Irish Repeal were those of American Abolition.
The South has exhibited singular faulty on this

THE GREAT LOG CABIN.

Our Wing brethren in Richmond, Va. are erect.
ing log cabin of sufficient dimensions to seat tara
thousand persons, and leave room for five hundred
more. We presume it will be ''fIIed to overflow

we find the above in the Vermont Phoenix. So
it appears, that the Wings have already commenc-
ed addressing the lowest passions of the commu-
nifty with ''Log Cabin" and "Hard Cider'' argu-
ments' We have expected this course would be
pursued, bat were not looking for the same old
instruments exactly. Perhaps the Vermont Wings

c. M. CLAY'S LETTER ON SLAVERY.

This week we give this admirable letter. In
every paragraph he makes point, and every
point is strong blow. That in every point this
letter will meet with universal concurrence at the
North, we do not expect; but in the main it is
right and is all the better because it comes from
the midst Of slavery. 1t is such men, who, infn-
itely more than others, will contribute to the cause
of Emancipation; and such men should be listen
ed to, encouraged, cherished, sustained; but they
under the ban of political abolition at the North;
while at the South, their efforts are thwarted and
their influence weakened by the uraism of por-
ton of our people, with whom the advocates of
slavery are always ready to represent them as be-
ing connected We can only add, that Cassius M.
Clay is no less fearless in defence of Wing princi-
Piles than Of Freedonl-n both causes he has per-
iled his life.-Vt. Watchman.
Where the Waterman gets its evidence that C.
M. Clay is " under the ban of political abolition"
we dc not know: perhaps it can point to some
such censure as the " Political Abolition Conven-
ton at Utica, passed upon J. Q. Adamsn' But to
show that the Political Aboitionists are not under
the ban Of Mr. Clay hiwself, we give the follow
ing extract from speech against the annexation
of Texas, made at mass meeting at the White
Sulpher Springs on the sOth of Dee. last. The
meeting was called to favor that project. Will the
Waterman copy'
"Then come the Liberty party, embracing a
large portion of the virtue, intelligence and legal
knowledge, the Christianity and patriotism of the
North. Taking the ground first occupied by
Washington himself that slavery was the creature
of the law and should be abolished by law, they
appeal to the ballot-box, not the bayonet; like the
great Irish Reformer, having faith in the power of
reason, truth and virtue, they expect to achieve a
bloodless revolution, more glorious than any yet
arising from force ard arms. This party, a
few years ago, numbered but seven thousand vot-
ers, now in 1943, they poll sixty-fve thousand
men at the ballot-box; having doubled themselves
every year from the time of their organization.-
At such continued rate of increase, leave il to
the rejecting to determine how long it will be be-
toce they absorb the whole political power of the
North"

From the True Sun.
AFFECTING SCENE.

A clergyman who was recently travelling at the,
South, and passenger on board of steamboat on
Cape Fear RivOr, observed some of the conse-
quences of slavery, which he has communicated
to the public. We are no abolitonists, in the re-
ceived sense of the word-we believe the Consti-
tuition must be kept invioate; yet we cannot con-
ceaI our horror at scenes like those described in
the following extract from the Christian Journal.
The writer says:
As went on board the steamboat, noticed
eight colored men, handcufed, and chained togeth-
er in pairs, four women, and eight or ten children,
of the apparent ages Of from four to ten years, all
standing together in the bow of the boat in charge
of man standing near them. OF the men, one
was sixty, one fifly-two, three of them about thr-
ty, two of them twenty-five, and one about twenty
years of age, as subsequently learned from them.
The two first had children, the next three had
wives and children, and the other three were sim
gle, but had parents living from them. Coming
near them, perceived that they were all greatly
agtated; and on inquiry, | found that they were
all slaves, who had been born and raised in North
Carolina, and had just been sold to a Spectator,
who was now taking them to the Charleston mar
ket.
Upon tho shore, there were number of color-
ed persons, men, women, and children, waiting
the departure of the boat; and my attention was
particularly attracted by two colored females, of
uncommon respectable appearance, neatly attred
who stood together, little distance from the crowd
and upon whose countepances was depicted the
keenest sorrow As the last bell was tolIing, saw
Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1844-02-03
TRACTS.

Probably there is no way, by which so much
light can be conveyed to the public mind on the
subject of slavery, with so little expense, as by
well written Tracts Several of the States have
established Repositories, and at the urgent re-
quest of many friends of the good cause, and by
the sanction OF the State Convention, the Editor
of the Freeman, has undertaken to keep supply
for this State When large editions Of from fifty,
to a hundred thousand have been struck off on
stereotype plates, they have been sold at the rate
of twelve pages per cent; but it is believed that
the small editions which will be published here,
and the expense of transportation on those obtain
ed from Massachusetts, together with the risk of
having a quantity left on his hands, will obge
the publisher to sell them at the rate of ten pages
per cent. A large supply of those advertised on
the fourth page, are now ready for delivery at this
office. 1t must be borne in mind that orders should
be postpaid, and accompanied with the money
The publisher has on hand excellent matter for
several other tracts, which will be published as
soon as they are wanted

t5~ The Methodist Preachers A. S. Conven-
tionGat Randolph on the Oath ult, was an occasion
of much interest, and we trust of profit. A strong
sense of the insutferable abomination of slavery
in the church, seemed to pervade the minds of all
present, and disposition was manifested to use
the most efficient means to rid the church and ma
ton of this loathsome curse. We shall not be
able to publish the resolutions until next week. but
our readers may SEQ specimen of the spirit which
prevailed by Rev. B. M. Halls letter on the first
page. Three excellent addresses were delivered,
one by Rev. H. H. Garnet, one by Rev. Justin
Spaulding of Winchester, N. H., and one by
Rev. G. Putnam. We hope to publish the sub
stance Of Br. Spauldng's address in the course of
a few weeks.
Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1844-02-03

10 On our first page will be found few hints,
by which the claims of Henry Clay to special hon
or from men who hate oppression, may be estimat-
ed. The following scrap from the Liberty Stand
ard, shows to some extent, what regard Mr.. Van
Buren, has to the equal rights of man. Indeed,
there is no man in the United States who has
trampled more recklessly upon the rights of the
colored man, or been more ready to sell his birth
right, and fawn, and crouch more meanly, to Sc
cure the favor of the slave power, than this same
Mr.. Van Buren, In choosing between two such
evils, it must be difficult to decide which is the
"least"
Can any one decide what those christians con-
sciences are made of, who pray God to give us
good rulers, who work righteousness and rule in
his ea',"urfs-Eote for such men Martin Van
Buren,, and Henry Clay?
Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1844-02-03

N5- 1t will be seen by the communication from
Mr. Leavitt, that Mr.. Jones, the Democratic spca-
ker of the present very democratic House of Rep
resentatives, has decided that he, the only abo-
ton reporter at Washington, cannot be allowed
seat in the Hall. Thirty or forty pro-slavery
reporters can be accommodated without any diff
fcuy for there is but little fear of their telling
tales out of school. The course Of Speaker Jones,
which we consider decidedly more mean than the
gag rule, is in perfect keeping with the general
course of his party on that subject. Their great
object and labor seems to be, to keep their doings
Out of sight of the people as much as possible
Our readers must of course be deprived of Mr..
Leavitt's interesting correspondence hereafter
This must also be our apology for furnishing so
little Congressional news this week, though there
seems to be but little doing at Washington worth
telling of, if we cannot tell of their pro-slavery
acts
