THE MISSING PACKET SHIPS.

All hopes of ever again seeing the packet
Ships United States and England seem now to
be abandoned by the public The United States
has been one hundred and one days at sea and
the England nnety-six
There is something peculiarly mournful in
such an announcement. These packet ships
left the city of New-York within few days of
each other, in all their beauty and pride, with
crews and passengers full Of life and hope
They rode the heaving pillows calamity, and
when the land in the blue distance faded away
from the vsisn of those on board, they little
thought that it was the last occasion on which
they should see the hills and Wales of this beau
tifu earth. And yet it was So These gallant
vessels with their treasures of life, have undoub-
eddy gone down below the unstable surface of
the sea- and are now
In the deep bosom of the ocean buried"
They have passed away from the scenes of the
world forever. The places that knew them on
earth shall know them no more A thousand
ties, love- friendship and affection, are severed
by the calamity, Many an anxious prayer has
been sent heavenwards for the welfare of those
who have been engulphed. Many wish for
health, prosperity and safety has been waited
over the waste of waters to the yoyagers who
shall return no more. Many a wet eye and
many stricken heart have poured out their an
guish as visions of the wrecks and their victims
have come up wildly before the imaginations of
friends. Hope, anxiety and despair have by
turns taken possession of the souls of the suryi-
vors. Who shall paint the deep and burning
agony of mothers, fathers, wives, children broth
ers and sisters, reft of those dearest to their
hearts by this EVENT. In truth, it is a perous
thing to dare the wrath of old ocean when an
angry sky is overhead, and the wild spirit of the
storm is shrieking around you. Heaven help

TEMPERANCE.

promised, last week, to speak of violation
Of the temperance pledge, by supporting those
taverns, stores and groceries where Intoxicating
liquors are Sold on the part of the supporters of
the cause. The question is, do we not break
our pledge by patronizing such establishments,
when we can procure what we want at other
places? What says the pledge?-" and that we

Of them Intoxicating liquors) in the community
and above ALL, use our utmost cndeavors to
reclaim and restore to temperance those who are
unfortunately addicted to mtemperance" This
is the pledge of our society in Montpelier, 9th
err pledges probably are, in substance the same
Nor does such pledge merely require, that those
who sign it should abstain from the use of such
liquors themselves, and talk and write in favor
of the same practice in others. Does it not rath-
er require us to employ ALL fair and honorable
means to prevent their use by others, and especi-
ally to diminish and destroy the temptations laid
in the way of those who are slaves of appetite
and habit, touching the use of these Liquors.
And does not our appreciation and patronage Of
those houses where such liquors are sold to the
victims of these appetites and habits, and those
by whose example such persons are cast down,
constitute violation of our PLEDGE How ma
ny who are now enrapped and ruined at these
houses, are induced to visit them, and conse-
quently are destroyed, by the fact, that members
of temperance societies, and advocates of temper
ance, go there, put up, lounge, and tradel We
have no desire to attack the business of any man
in society; nor would we say word unfavorabe
to the success of the liquor-trade, were we not
compelled to do so from the strongest conviction,
that this trade is sweeping health, property, fam
lilies, lives, souls-and, in short all society and
man can hold DEAR to the gulf of ruin. Weact
from sense of duty, when we plead with tenn
perance men to discountenance this trade, that it
shall not deluge the land with evils and mis-
chiefs the most immediate, certain, palpable,
dreadful and lasting. But we must speak more
fully next week. ANXIOUS.

Liberty vote in New Hampshire.-A cores
pondent of the Bangor Gazette writes:
Casting my eye over the return of the late
election in New Hampshire, was grotiied to
learn that in AZ towns, the liberty vote exceeds the
wing. In four others, it is uSt equal. In eight
towns the liberty vote exceeds the democratic, not
only for Governor, but for members of congress.
Aud in five of these towns the liberty party is in
advance ct either Of the ohers--the first partv.
Freedom is creeping up in the Granite State In
fifty towns hers is now the frst or second party!
Guilty Canaan is retrieving its character. 1t
will be recollectcd that this is the famed town,
in which the abolition school house was assaed
and hauled into a swamp! Look Mt its reren,

Soon may we shout--Et prevaleBAT.
Nor is the good leaven excluded from the legisla-
ture The N. H. Patriot and Hills patriot both
concede SeUen representatives TO the abolitonists
indicating that fUe of these are from the demo-
cratic party, and two from the wing. TO the lat
ter, It is said that the venerable Col. Pierce OF
Dover should be added. He is unquestionaLy a
staunch abolitlOnist. Eight abolition representa-
tIves already! And Canaan will probably add an
other, as she did not elect the first day. This is
quite cheering
Query. If no abotionists have come from the
democratic party, where did the liberty folks in
n ii. get those five representatives? Echo an
swers, where?

CHEAf '-l4ibEhlf MEN, READ!
At the urgent solicitation of friends in various
parts of the State, and deeply impressed, as we
are, with the vital necessity of arraying the anti
republican and imhuman nature and tendencies OF
American Slavery, and the legitimate remedy, be-
fore the mass of the Lawmakers of our State, we
have concluded to offer the FREEMAN for STA
months from the first week in June next, (exterd-
ing probably to close of our next State legislature
and publication of its Iaws,) on the following ex-
tremeIy low terms, for cash an ADVANCE:
90 copies, sent to one address, $1,000
10 g" 600
5 $50
sT3-These proposals are issued mainly, that
County and Town committees may obtain bun.
dies Of papers to circulate in those places where
our principles nre not fully understood, and have
not obtained a footing, and not designed to inter
ere with the increase Of our regular list, which we
trust will not be neglected,
We would suggest to each County committee il
the State, that they confer together Immediately
and take efficient measures to introduce at leas
twenty papers into those towns where none, o
but few copies, are now taken, as in no other wa,
can the same amount of light be brought directly
before the minds of the people.
The terms, too, must he strictly complied with
for we cannot afford so large a sheet, containin,
such an amount of reading matter, at the low
price here offered, without the money in advance

THE DRAINING OFF SYSTEM.

The Democrats claim that the annexation Of
Texas would drain off Slavery from the North
ern Slave States and thus they would become
Free States. But what says experience on the
subject! constant drain from the slave breed
ing to the planting States has been in progress
ever since the purchase of Louisiana. Have
slaves become extinct in the slave-raising States?
Has it at all diminished! Here are some facts
adduced by Hon. Mr.. Pratt in the New York
House of Representatives:
Slaves North Of North Carolina
In 1900 496 $50
1910 $40, 673
1920 SCI ,43S
1880 5S4 ,941
1910 545, 1888
Senator Walker estimates the number of slaves
sold south from the save-draining States at half
million: yet the slaves in these states have IN
creased 1000 in 40 years. How soon will
they become Free States at this rate? But take
the census of two ofthese States, and see how
slavery has been drained out of them 1t is from
Mr. Pratt's report:
SIavcs in Kentucky and Tennessee,
In 1900 53,S27
" 1910 5000
" 1920 2O6, $3.50
1880 3O6,8I6
d" 1910 65,3l7
Here is an increase of 10000 slaves during
the last ten years. When Democrats attempt to
excuse their support of more slavery by such
experience, does it not show the desperateness OF
their project-that they are hard pushed for ar
gument, and that they feel the need of some kind
of apology for the warfare they are waging on
the cause of Freedom.-Liberty Herald

We would suggest to the Board the propriety of
sending of their agents to Ashland, to instruct
