THE RARw BURNER.

up in alcohoi's grea. prison house. That
is the last chapter 10 the life Of poor vii.

all move in The same circle. The law
makes the drunkard maker. the drunkard
maker makes The drunkayd, the drunkard
blunders upon crime, the crime brings
him around 10 the law again, and The law
shuts him up ia the grea. granite pen
That has been preciseI y the life circuit OF
poor Smith. Blrnum did mol make Smi h
a druukard, and we won't say he made any
body drankard, don't know how that ls,
but he gave Smith intoxicating drink

less criminal act we think, than TO give or
sell it 10 a sober man. If taverns must
deal out rum TO be drank, let them deal ii
out TO drunkards alone, and not 10 sober
men. we say.
Twenty years ago Smith was q Ihriv.
ing, industrious farmer in Freclowp, sur
rounded by plenty, and as foil Of hope for
the future as any one. His daily toll was
rewarded by the smiles of his wife and
joyous and happy children. The law H..
censcd drunkard makers, robbed him of
his farm, robbed him of his wife and his
children, and scattered them in The land,
and finally turned him off poor broken
down vagabond, with his mind and body
in ruins, without shelter and without a
friend in this cold. hearted world. Thus

Now then who is lc bIame2The man who
gave him tbs liquor, we say. Smith may
be blamed for getting drunk, moi for ac!s
done after drunkenness. The one who
made him drunk should be responsible
for those acts.

In order to show the value TO the peo-
pie Of Vermont hook at the aggregate.
il is ascertained that now 10000 tons
are sen. 10 and from market annually by
the section Of, ouniry accommodated ny
this road. A Saving of $40 90 per tot,
would be an annual saving ofS7Oo,o0o,
In five years this saving, alone, would
pay tho whole expenses Of the road; and
,f Vermont could furnish the whole cap
i,al necessary for its construction, she
would be richer al the end Olive years,
if the road should never pay one cent OF

startling assertion; bnt il is nevertheless
true,
Fellew citizens, think Of these ihmgsl
Think of the many advantages you will!
derive from having Boston market
brought within one day Of you, and at a
charge ofonly three dollars per ton for
Transportation. Think Of It, you Of
Western Vermont, aud | am confident
your good sense will tell you at once
where your interest lies. Farmers Of
Vermont, a ton Of pork, or butter, or
cheese, or wool or beef, is now sent as
cheap from Buffalo, or Cleaveland, or
Detroit, or Milwaukee, or Chicago, to
Boston or New York, as the average
price from Vermont to the same markets
Think of it! that the cheap and fertile
lands Of the West enjoy nearly tho same
advantages of communication with mar
ket that we do, and is il any wonder that
your sons prefer the cheaper lands of
illinois and Wisconsin, If you would
keep your children at home-if you
would preserve your farms from depre-
ciation-il you would neutralize the ad-
vantages ofthe new and fertile lands of
the west ii you would bequeath to your
posterity the richest legacy you can con-
ceive-show your libera'ily in this nigh
ty enterprise, and you have accomplished
il all.
There are important events in the his
tory of communities, as of individuals,
which have an effect for all time. IF
rightly improved, they lead to prosperity
& happiness-if neglected, though we may
regret the want Of foresight that induced
US to reject them-yct they are gone
forever. candidly believe that the pres
emf is crisis in the history Of Western
Vermont, that will be remembered with
pleasure or with modification, as we
dec ,de TO accept or reject tie assistance
that the Bostonians are ready and
anxious to render US in the completion Of
our Railroad.
Fellow citizens be wise. Do not
lightly reject the proffercd aid.

TO THE PEOPLE OF WESTERN
VERMONT.

Fellow CITIZENS: In my first arli-
Gle | endeavored to show the advantage
to be derived from The building Of the
Railroad through our State or rather
from the expenditure ofthis vast amount
Of capital among US. Great as is the ad :
vantage to be derived from that, it is OF
little moment compared with other ad
vantages to be derived from haring a
Railroad Communication with Boston.
Boston is the natural market for aHthe
productions Of Western Vermont. BY
that, mean that Boston consumes lust
such productions as we have TO send to
market, and these productions command
higher price and find reader sale
there than in New York. The fact that
many Of our products are sent to Boston
through New York is ample proof of this
statement.
Boston is the commercial emporium of
New Eng land, and all feel New Eng
land pride in her prosperity. The con-
genialIty Of feeling and sentiment in
morols, religion and politics, naturally
make our sympathies the same. The
manly virtues, the strict integrity, the
high and honorable character of her
business men, naturally induce US to
seek that market, and notwithstanding
the increased expense Of transportation
a large part Of the products of our soil
now find its way there.
IL then Boston is our natural market
an enlightened self interest would lead
Boston and Vermont to increase by all
the means in their power the facilities
for communication with that market.
II viii not be denied that it costs at
least on an average $I3 per ton now, to
send orr products TO market am au-
thorized by the best Railroad authority
in Massachusetts, to say that with q
Railroad, the same productions will be
carried at charge of from two TO four
dollars only per ton, at most at an aver
age Of three dollars. Here then is saw.
ing OF ten dollars in every ton.
THIS saving is 10 the producers. Our
produce will command the same price il
it costs but 8 dollars TO transport it as il
now does. What farmer has not his ton or
tons Of pork, or butter and cheese, or
wool, or lat cattle, or many other articles
which do not go 10 market, but which
then would find cash market at his OaOn
door? What farmer ia Vermont bu,
would esteemit of the greatest adyan.
tage to have the Boston market brough,
within fifteen or twenty miles of our own
farm! What farmer but would esteem
it az great advantage to have the saw.

We have been looking on for few

stock OF the Cent!al Railroad is 10 be ex-
ceedingly valuable; but with that BUSH

TO be of the very bes. in the country.
The advantages to Boston of this great
work. and the value and security of the
investment combined cannot fail TO enlist
both retired capitalists and active business
men 10 build The road speedily. But let
not Vermonters wait for Boston let
them be jealous lest b sion should reap

SLAVE WHIPPING IN NEW OR,
LEANS.

Our fellow citizen, Jeremiah Curtis,
ESQ. in a speech recently made in this
city, stated that while in New Orleans
not long since, he was informed by his
steward, an exemplary member ofa chris
tian church, who had been taken from
his vessel and thrust into the tcalaboose,
under the laws of Louisiana, because
God had given hima skin somewhat col
ered-that the public whippings were in
ficted there in the morning, and that il
he would come carly in the day, he
would have the opportunity Of Witness
ing them. DESTROYS of acquainiing him
self with slavery in all its operations MIR
G. went early the next morning TO the
prison, and there witnessed the merciless
application Of the lash TO the naked
backs Of men and women. He learned
that the regulations Of the city required
that, when slaves were to be punished,
they should be whipped by the public
whipping master at the calaboose- the
number of lashes should not exceed
twenty five. The fee for the infection
was cent lash. The whip used had
short handle and long lash, which the
master, standing at good distance.
handled 80 scientifically that every stroke
brought the flesh, and the blood flowed
in streams down the back of the victim,
AT the time Mr. Curtis went to take
his steward away, the whipping master
came out ofthe calaboose with his hands
covered with blood, and remarked:
There, that is the most obstinate mig
ger that ever sawp
Mr. G. then went into the caiaboose
and there saw black with his throat cut
and lying upon the floor in a pool o.
blood On inquiry, he learned that the
man had been slave, who had always
sustained a most estmable character
that he had ever done all in his power &c
please his master, that he had never beer
punished, but that for some imagined OF.
fence his master now had sent him Up
for whipping and to be placed in the
chin gang and that he had declared he
never would submit to that. When The
time came for the execution of the pun
'shment, and he was satisfied, by en-
trance Of the whipping master, that there
was no reprieve, he drew his knife across
his throat, and fell upon the floor, ane
shortly afterwards was a corpse!
What commentary is this upon The
OF repeated text, the slaves are content

On Thursday afternoon hast, the 29th
ct May, being the occasion OF the fifth An
nivsrSary of the Philadelphia Sunday
School Union, OUT city was eniivened by
the gathering Of several thousand Of chill,

herewith. They were accompanied by
their teachers, all vending their way,
school alter school with bright eyes, smiI
ing faces, and light hearts, bearing vases
nflhe choicest Bowers Of lbe seaeop. bow,
que.s and wtralhs, and other floral deco

Long before the hour OF three, the schools
had arrived al their destined stations in the

was offered, again the schools sang in
most delightful strains, while on the at
mosphere around, periumed with The fra
GRANGE from many, many flowers, the
sound Of these sweet infaltile voices was
conveyed towards heaven and echoed in
.he distance.
/, was delightful exhibition and must
long be remembered bv the thousands of
spectators who had gathered in and
around the Square 10 witness the ceremo-
MES.
At the close of these exercises the
schools again formed in columns and pro
cceded 10 the Museum, where the child
ZEN deposited their vases and baskets, bou.
quets AID other floral decorators, and re-
turned in good order 10 their several
school houses, and we're dismissed.
In the mean time their flowers were
mos. tas,efulIy arranged in the saloon, on
different tables, attended by ladies who
offered them for sale during the evening,
together with the choicest refreshments Of
the season.
From early candle Iigh! until 10 at
night, the large saloon Of the museum
witnessed one dense crowd Of visitors,
many OF whom carried away with them
the riches, bouquets Of flowers that we
have seen this season and al moderate pri,
ces.
10 the upper saloon, May day Fesh-
raj was prepared, under the direction OF
MIR J H Farrand, with whom arrange
ments had been made for extensive prep.
aTation, in which, we understand, none
were disappointed. During the evening,
no address was delivered by Rev. A. l..
Stone, Of Middlelown Conn.
The entire fund realized from this eel
ebration which could no, have been less
than $1,000, will be appropriated for the
purchase OF Sunday School Books ard
