The Vice Presidency.

The editor of the St. Louis Republican, Wing,
was at the Baltimore Convention. Writing,
April 3d. to his paper on the subject Of the vice
presidency, he says, In the selection of vice-pres-
ident, the western and southern delegations gen.
orally, appear disposed to leave it to the northern
eastern and middle States, 50 far as they can
They will unite upon any unobjectonable man
whom these States will agree upon" He how
ever says, " There appears to be much opposition
TO running John Davis, Of Massachusetts,
Thus we are by degrees getting at the reasons
and grounds on which, as Mr. Greedy informs us,
the nomination "was substantially settled by the
southern delegates last evening"
The New Orleans Bee promptly hoist the BAN
ner Of Clay and Frenghuysen, and says,-''The
nominations were wisely made; it appears that
Theodore Frelnghuysen was the lavorite Of the
southern delegations. who supported him with sim
gular unanimity"-'the northern delegates yield
ing to the strong desires ofthe southern members
What occasioned these "strong desires" is aques-
ton which none of our northern papers or orators
have yet enabled us to answer The Bee recuH
to the subject again in giving the results of the
several ballotings, and says,-"we call particular
attention to this statement, which shows conclu-
sively that Theodore Frehnghuyscn owes his nom
ination TO the votes Of The slarehoidjng States-i
sufficient guarantee, If any were needed Of HIS
SOUNDNESS ON ALL SUBJECTS AZTEC

The Vermont Watchmal.

The last Waterman has long quotation from
David Lee Child, whose paper, the w. says, SIS
an anti-slavery paper" to show that our views of
Mr. Clay's sentiments are wrong. Now the Ed
tor of the Watchman must be rather green, or he
must think his readers quite so, If he expects to
make any more of Mr.. Child's opinions than those
of any other devoted Wing. The community can
nor no ignnpa.,tvf the fact, that he has always
avowed his attachment to the Wing party, and has
from the beginning, been one of the most fierce and
INSCRIPTIONS denouncers of the Liberty Party
Such false insinuations, together with unfair quo
tations from the correspondents Of the Freeman,
which he ascribes to its Editor, are too glazing to
pass unnoticed by his readers.
1t is quite amusing to see SO much of that paper
devoted to the Liberty party, which, according to
its own showing is composed of nobody, and to the
Freeman, which we are so often told, is advocat-
ing and eflectiug nothing Which is the loudest
testimony on this subject, actions or words? There
is no Disgusting the fact, that the Liberty party are

TeXas,mThe Prospect,

Since the days of Caligula, a more Inscriptions
and desperate demagogue and tyrant than John
Tyler has not assembled to power Come what
may, he and his cabinet are manifestly determined
to secure the annexation Of Texas, at the present
session Of Congressman we still believe they will
succeed, if not by the adoption ofthe treaty by the
Senate, in some other shape, and by another pro-
cess. Already, we are engaged in quasi war
with Mexico, by the disposal of portion of the
naval and military power of the nation, so as to
aid Texas, ana overawo Mexico. That lick-spt-
tie of southern power, and base panderer to slave
trailickers, Lewis Cass, is out in letter in favor
of immediate annexation So is Com. Stewart.
So is Levi Woodbury.. So is Gov. Polk. So is

The Licence Law.

The progress of the Temperance cause is truly
gratifying to the heart Of the humane. No human
mind can calculate the amount of misery that has
been prevented by this reformation, and the sue
cess of the past should stimulate us to engage with
united and increasing zeal, in driving the common
enemy of virtue and prosperity from among us.
The order Of the day, now seems to be, "Moral
Suasion for the drunkard, and Legal Restraint for
the dram-seller" many towns in all parts Of the
the State, have at their last March meeting, in
structed the civil board, not to recommend the
granting of any liscenses within their borders The
western counties have taken the lead in this noble
work. In Rutland and Addison counties, (and if
we mistake not, some others.) worry iurge MAJOR
ity of the towns have decided that they will endure
the curse of drunkard factories no longer. The
propriety of this course cannot be questioned, we
think, so long as the present iscence laws exist;
and we have long believed it the duty of Temper
ance men to unite their efforts, to obtain repeal
of all the laws that license the sale of ardent spir-
its, as a beverage, and to secure the enactment o.
such laws as will make its sale for this purpose {
penal offence. The present laws of this State, fol

that certain persons, shall be licensed under GER

at this election, were it not that, by doing, we
might throw the government into the hands of the
Iocofocos, our old adversaries, which we cannot
endure.' So, for fear Of the 'locos, forced and
artificial enthusiasm must be made to sweep over
the land, drowning the voice of conscience and
the faithful warnings of Gods word, in the gener
al melee in favor of "grea principles" which new
Ter had an existence, and of "great men," whose
greatness consists in their backness of heart: and
the pieces o. SjIUer, in the shape of spos of office
will be their sole reward for the wear and tear Of
conscience and treachery to the best interest of the
country and humanity. But, thank Heaven, there
are those and the noble band is rapidly increasing
who will remain unswerved from their advocacy of
crushed and down-trodden humanity, and the al
most obsolete principles Of Mans inalienahle
rights and when this storm of mems passions shall
have swept over, if virtue enough is left in the
hearts of the People to decide in favor of the i'm
muable and eternal principles of Right, and of our
| glorious Declaration Of Independence, then these
panderers to the slave power will be the most vo-
cferous in their attachment to the principles of
the Liberty Party and these professions will be
just as consistent as a recent declaration Of the
Vermont Waterman, that Whggey and Anima-
SOmy were idcntica!!
Talk of electing Henry Clay to prevent the an
neXation of Texas! Were it not for the evden1
IhHueuCG VI lhG AlDeIty party, III eAlortng sucn e
letter rs they have from Mr.. Clay, against the an
mediate annexation of Texas, the proposition to,
elect him to prevent annexation would sound as
prepOstcrOus, as to worship the enemy of all right
eousness to secure the conversion Of the world to
the truth! Were it not for the tocsin of Freedom
which the Aboltionsts ofthe North have sounded
out,-and had they not reached the alarming cri-
Sis" as Mr.. Clay once said, of "carrying their
:, principles to the polls" annexation would have
taken place long ere this, and Henry Clay would
t have been its champion! just as he was in the
i, Missouri case. And had some ''Mr. Rich of YER
mont" (if the degeneracy of the times allowed
such sterling friend Of Liberty to hold seat in
such a cage of uncean birds,) raised his voice
: against its vile system ofslayery, Mr.. Clay would
have instantly appeared for its Defence and after
"drawing comparison between the condition OF
the slaves of the south s. the aborng whites of the
north, would have STRUCK The BALANCE

Democratic Convention.

The national convention of the democratic party
was holden at Baltimore OF Monday of this week,
but the proceedings have not yet come to hand
Probably they had stormy time, and nominated,
perhaps two candidates. northern and south
ern maitland perhaps none. The annexation
question has been a perfect fre-brand in their
ranks, and utterly dispelIed the bow of promise
which they claimed beamed so brightly over them
few months SINCE Mr.. Van Buren,, who, until
lately, has universally been looked upon as the
presidential candidate of his party for 1914 has
oeen entirely thrown into the shade by his letter
against immediate annexation-and Gen. Cass,
Com. Stewart, Mr.. Buchanan, Gov Woodbury.
and perhaps Mr. Tyler, will each have their claims
preferred before the convention, in consequence
OF having avowed themselves in favor of inmedi-
ate annexation. The result most probable, in our
OPINION, VIII be, the nomination of Mr. Van Buren,
Tor the north, and Texian candidate for the
south. Could anything more fully demonstrate the
utter and unparalleled pro slavery character fof
the so-cailed democratic party than for them to be
driven away from the support of Mr.. Van Buren,.
whom they have stood by in triumph and defeat,

VIRGINIA Moving.

A meeting of citizens of Ohio county, Virginia,
convened by public notice, was held at the house
of John Emery on the 4h instant, to consider and
adopt the best mode to form an electoral ticket,
to be supported by the Liberty voters of the State,
at the approaching presidential election.
John Gilmor, Esq, was called to the chair, and
Thomas Todd appointed secretary
ReSolUed, Thata committee be appointed, whose

speeding electors. John Gmor, S. M. Bell, H.
Brownlee, V. Huey, j. Emery, J. Whitman, and
Thomas Todd, were appointed said committee.
As we desire all sections of the State that are
friendly to our cause to have Il voice in the selec-
ton of candidates for the electoral ticket, we re-
specially request any citizen who knows of suita-
BILE persons that will act as electors to address the

such danger be found to be imminent, you will col
ect and march the forces above indicated to the
Sabine river, but not proceed beyond the frontier
without further Instructions, keeping in readiness,
in case supposed, all necessary means of transport

ammunition"
Commodore Conner is told,-
"You will, in your discretion, employ the yes
sells composing your squadron in cruising in the
gulf of Mexico. so as to to communicate Frequently
with Galveston; and occasionally show yourselfat
or before Vera Cruz, with such deviatlons to 9th
er.parts ofyour cruzing grounds, as in your Judy
ment may be best calculated to effect the objects of
your general and special Instructions"
The ''SpecIalH Instructions are not commitment
ed; but these are sufficient, taken in connection
with the language of the Presidents message, and
the lax practice towards commanding officers who
have taken the responsibility of acting according to
their belief of what would be the wishes of the eX-
ecutiye, to warrant the assurance IN the minds OIL
the people, that the President and his Cabinet in
tended these officers should wage war against Mex
leo, ifthe slightest opportunity should offer, rely
ing on the influence of the slayeocracy TO secure
their indemnity for the act
And now, what is Congress doing? The Sen
ate, the energsing element Of the the treaty-lnaI-
ing power, instead of instantly rejecting a treaty
thus set forth, spent the day following the receipt
of this message, in Intellectual debates on the ques-
ton whether the treaty should be discussed in pub
lie or private session. And the House of Repre-
sentatves, the grand inquest of the nation, after
futile attempt to transact business on private
claims, adjourns over from Friday to Monday, for
want of a quorum-because many Of the members
had gone to the races Shame Shame!
Shame
We submit that Congress and both parties have
SO deserted the constitution and the country in this
exgency, that lhey can no longer be trusted at all
but that the Liberty party is imperatiyey called
upon to point out and demand those measure,
which the safety Of the republic requires-and t(
use the most vigorous efforts to the Govern
ment from the tratorous or embece hands into
which both the old political parties have and would
confde it.-.uorn Chron.
