1.-THE VERDICT OF THE PEOPLE.

"The New York Evening Post, and other Free
Trade papers, insist that the result Of the Presden-
ual election is verdict Of the sovereign authority
against the tariff. The Texas organs clam also that
they have obtained from the same high tribunal a
verdict in favor Of annexation. We are not among
those who deny the justice Of these assumptions. In
deed, cannot how such conclusions can be re-
sisted. Mar. Van Buren,, before the Texas ingredient
was cast into the cauldron, had the Nominating Con-
vention. But he took ground against the Annex ion
of Texas, and ives for that reason rejected. Mr..
Polk who came out in favor Of Annexation, was for
that sole reason nominated Messrs Clay and Polk
we're for ten years IN Congress together. The for
vas hing that time for, and the latter against
protective tariff. They were now opposing cspdi-
dates for President, the former being supported by
the friends, and the latter by he opponents of the
Tariff vf 1912 The people have decided, by an em
phstic majority, in favor Of the Texas and Free
Trade candidate. Indeed New FORK and Pennsylva-
mia, SAFES supposed to have been strongly opposed
TO the extension OF slavery, and strongly in favor
Of protective tariff, have cast their votes for Polk
and Dallas. Can we have stronger or higher ev-
denoe of public sentiment For what purpose are
elections held but to ascertain the OF The Elec
tors And when, after protfscted aud free discus
sion, the people have deliberately decided through
the ballot boxes that they against the tariff and
in favor OF the annexation Of Texas, why should we
appeal from resist their verdict
"whst then should be the courselof the Wing par
tyi How can we best our country We say
by testing the principles and policy of opponents

have what they have asked for through the ballot

TExAs-The Madisonian denies. although not
by authority that the British government have Civ
en- assurances that they contemplate no other alli-
ance with Texas than commercial one The let
ter writer's say is nevertheless true, and refer to
the despatch of Lord Aberdeen, dated in December
last, and on file in the State Department. The
correspondence of the Express Of the 9th inst says
"Mr Calhoun has been anxious, for two purpo-
ses to present the Texas and Oregon questions to-
gether first, because it might bring the West into
the support Of the Texas movement; and, second
ly, as am told, because Mr. Calhoun cannot, as an
honest man, enter into a negotiation for Texas, un
more Just, more reasonable, more worthy of pa
triotic statesman, can well believe that this state
ment which have from southern friend, may
be true"

VERMONT AND MASSACHUSETTS RAIL RoAD--
Subscription TO StOek-The Books for Subscription
TO stock in this road have now been open in this
village about week, and there has been subscribed
nearly 100000. There are yet many of our citi-
zens from whom is expected small subscriptions of
from one TO five shares each, who have not as yet
been called upon. Scarcely a signature has yet
been obtained in the West part of the town, where
there are many farmers from whom something is
confidently expected. We hope to be able to say
that over 100000 has been subscribed for in this
town. Our citizens generally have been spirited
and liberal in taking stock, and have shown both
their earnest desire TO have the road built and their
full confidence that when built, it will be good
stock
Early measures, we understand, will be taken by
the Committee of the Corporators for Vermont and
New Hampshire, TO have the books opened in the
other towns in the vicinity and we trust every man,
especially every farmer, will be prepared 10 make

Those who have any desire 10 have the benefit of
rail road facilities TO and from market--to be re-
lieved from the oppressive crushing tax Of dear
transportation, should act no,o promptly and liberal

portunity is offered of obtaining those facties-of
being relieved from that tax. If neglected, the

see their farms and stock depreciate below even

EPfsCopAcY IN TROUBLE.

A large number of the laty of the Episcopal
Church of New York have addressed circular to
the laity Of the diocese, denouncing in strong terms
the arrogant conduct of the Bishop at the last
Episcopal Convention in preremptorily refusing as
President, TO hear Judge Duer speak allow any
appeal to be taken from his decison--and calling
upon them in a most earnest manner 10 take meas
TO be fully represented in the next Convention,
that what was in lis origin usurpation, may not by
sufferance become law, and that no constitutional
privileges may be violated quietly. THIS circular
is signed by some of the most influential men in
the city, amongst whom Judges Oakley and
Duer, James G.. King, Robert II. Morris, Hiram
Ketchum, Edmund Sanford, Peter Lorrilard, Jr.,
Peter G.. Stuyvesant and others
Bishop onderdonk has issued counter circular
defending his conduct, in spirited and somewhat
tart manner lie calls the proceedings of Judge
Duer and others at the last Convention, disorderly
and an outrage, and pronounces the charges Of the
present circular as unfounded and unjust.
This has been followed by an address to the
Bishopby David B. Ogden, Ogden Hoffman, Gulian
c. Verplonck and large number Of other church.
men, assuring that prelate that they cannot con-
sent to be parties to the course proposed by the
laty, and pretty plainly intimates that those who
signed that circular seek to introduce into the
Councils of the Chruch the unruly spirit of the
world-its contentious and strife, and that they
do not love the Church, its privileges, order and
laws.
We apprehend the Bishop will find it difficult to
lay the spirit he has called into life, and will learn
that free-born American laity, will not quietly sub
nit to the arrogant claims of supremacy which he
has put forth.
ColWebb the Courier and Enquirer, himselfa
strong Churchman, says, if the Bishop and Clergy
succeed in their design of controlling the Conven-
ton, it will inevitably lead TO schism.
