For the Green Mountain Freeman.
Political COlruDtiOn,

Happening, few days sncn to step into neigh
boring store. found number of individuals belong
ing to the wing and democratic parties collected, lis
tening to the news from Maine. After listening a.
while to election news, conversation ensued rel
tive to the merits of the several political parties In
the course of the conversation was staed as it
were all right and honorable that in the two parties
VIZ, vhg and democratic, it was a 'mmon practice
for the candidates to advance large of money to
be distributed in the district, and employed by their
partizans to buy voes;-tIat Mr.. Dillingham;, at his
last election paid out some thousands of dollars for
this purpose, and it was believed that Mr.. Chandler
would not stand for ouror five thousand dollars if the
prospect of an election seemed to warrant the expen-
diture.
Now, after making such admissions as these, the
same men very sensitive about the charge OF cor
uption which is sometimes made by Liberty men and
papers "Your papers" say they, dea in party slang
as much as ours, and your party the same means
to obtain office, and Office is the object they are AFTER
and there is no difference"
Well if it be so, would ask, "what are our coun-
trys prospects for the future? How long will euen d
form of Republican government be sustained, if pub
Tic morals are already corrupt that party oganiz
ed expressly for reform purposes is in six short years
in so great need of reform itself? And if the parte.
altogether corrupt it not time for christians tc
withdraw from political parties altogether? But before
we come to this conclusion, would it not be well tc
exrm the subject little farther? Let us, them en-
qne il the old parties corrupt as their par
tizans admit is 1t not the duty Of Liberty men and pa
pers to expose them And what condolences ouph
we TO place in those editors, political religious, wht
dare not, or will not expose to public view, the prof
gate characters Of men set up for Office lest they Shout
injure their party, or the cry of party slang" shout
be raised against them?
Again, it the Liberty party are so anxious to Obtain
office, if they seek Office means TO an end, an
that end noble and philanhropic one.-ifthey see
for political influence, in order to open the way 70
the emancipation and elevation of millions Of me-
from the condition of blutes 10 that of rational beings
the children of God are they therefore to be BRANDED
as political demdgogues, otfce-seekers, fanatics an
hypocrites" Let no one Judge and condemn the Lib
ery party till they have fully and fairly in, esgate
its character its principles, its men, and the ect the
aim to accomplish And only so far as these appea
worthy of the support Of honest men, TO we ask men
support them LIBERTY LOVER.

remarks, abe independent, or incorporate into
the United States, do not believe it will pro-
long or shorten the duration of that institution
1t is destined to become extinct, at some distant
day, in my opinion, by the operation Of the in
eviIable laws Of population. 1t Dould be an,Oise
to refuse permanent acquisition, '0hich oiH er-
ist as long as the globe remains, on account of
a temporary institution"
In the meantime, the wing senators in Con-
gress, with remarkable unaninity confirmed
the nomination of the arch 6end of slavery-the
father Of the Texas scheme-the shrewdest and
most powerful advocate of slavery the world over,
John c. Calhoun, to the first place III the Cab-
net. AS was to be expected, this man so potent
for evil, devoted all the powers Of his giant IN
teect TO the daring scheme of annexation. -
Steady, stern, in1exible he welded the power
and patronage Of the administration with sin
gle eve to this object. And for all this mighty
and evil influence Of the Secretary the Wing
party in the u S. Senate must be held RESPONSE
BILE.
Early in the spring of 1914, before the North
ern Democracy had been driven into the supper
of annexation, a few anti-slavery men among the
wings, in connexion with the Liberty men, made
an effort to call a meeting of all classes opposed
to Texas, in Faneuil Hall, as the inclpient steF
of general movement throughout the free State
But leading and influential Wings opposed the
project, and defeated it.
In the fall of the year, as the election drew
near, it was deemed important to obtain the vote,
Of Liberty men for Henry Clay; and wing press
es and whig orators grew suddenly eloquent a
gainst Texas annexation, all the while however
urging the support Of man, who was at the
same time electioneered for in the South as I
friend of Slavery and Texas.
The result is known. In the session of Con
gress which followed, resolutions admitting Tex
as slave state, passed the House of Replesen
tatives. The Senate was Wing Of course il
arrested the infamous resolutions No suct
thing. Three wing Senators from the South vo
ted fol them, and the DEED WAS DONE
and joint yer-the same beshouted, and every
where besung Shareholder, who was placed in Off
ice by the wings, had the glory Of signing the
act of nfamy and making it a law.
We give this brief statement not from an,
wish to indulge in elimination, or Improbable
contention. Rather would we, if possible, for
get and forgive the past. But our opponents.
have still the impudence md total disregard Of
truth to charge the annexation of Texas upol
the Liberty Party-the only party in the country
which has steadily and consistently opposed it
Hence we must speak i'll self defence. Go
grant that the fellowship Of evil may speedily be
broken up; and that all classes of our fellow Cit
izens, Wings, Democrats and AhoIitionists, ma.
unite in one great LIBERTY PARTY, pedg
ed to the overthrow Of Slavery and the vindca
tion of the Rights of Maa.
