Sympathy for TOrrey,

AT meeting of the citizens of Willston on the 9TH
inst the following preamble and resolutions were a.
dopted:
Whereas intelligence has reached us, that Charles
IFIorey the slaves friend, lately died in the Bat-
more prison, having been ncarceated for not dcve.
ing up 10 his master the servant that had escaped from
oPpresSiOa-thus acting the part of Christan-here
fore,
Resolved, That, In the opinion of the citizens Of
Willlston, Bro. Torrey was barbarously inundated
on the altar Of American slavery.
Resolved, that Gov. Pratt in not listening to the
calls of humanity, and in refusing to grant Torey his
pardon, when it was demonstrated that he could live
but short time, shows that he is fit tool for the
slave power and possesses heart destitute of Chris
tan kindness.
Resolved, That in view of the maryrdom of Tor
rey, we will renew our zeal in the cause of human
freedom, and inscribe upon our banners, "FoR Con
AND LIBERTY"
Resolved That we deeply sympathze with the be-
reaved family and pray God to protect the widow and
fatherEess.

FROM AN EXPERIENCE OF MORE THAN
20 years, DR.. Foger is able to offer medicine to all
who may be suffering from coughs, of any kind,
sumption, in its incipent stages, asthma, pain in the
chest and slde hectic fever and those diseases which
generally terminate in consumption, and which he is
satisfied is the best remedy that has been brought
before the public. He has used the remedy under all
circumstances, tried 1t efectuay, and now believes
that it will do for those who may be suffering than
any other means in the world. Cases can be exhibit
ed at the principal depot where the medicine has been
fairly tried, and found eectua in the most severe cas-
es ofcough, asthma and incpient consumption and we
have no doubt that when the medicine is generally
known in this section it will be highly appreciated. 1t
is called Folgers Oosaonan, or All Healing Basam.

Human Sacrifice for Slavery.

Mr.. EDIToR:-I have been thinking what an exhi-
bition it would make if all the human flesh and blood
which has been sacrificed for slavery in Africa, in the
middle passage, and elsewhere, by professedy Chris
tan and civilized nations, could be exhibited at one
view. How many square miles would the dead bodies
of these victims cover? How large lake would be
filled with their blood? It is horrible thought but it
may be well to pause and contemplate it that we may
be assisted in forming estimation Gifts wickedness
and aroused should be, to do battle against it.
But this is not all. Would to heaven we could say it
was There are groans and signs, anguish and mis-
cry, the sunderlng of the dearest ties and be-
yond human conception; but all are numbered in hea-
ven, and day of retrbution is coming. 1t may be
even at the door How can men, enlightened repub-
aican, christian men, view this subject with so much
indifference? Who would not abolish slavery if they
could but feel its horrors. A. H. B.

FACTS SPEAK LOUDER THAN
WORDS.n

Some of the more intelligent ofthe lead
ing Loco Focos are selling, and seem to be
glad OF The chance, their best wool for 25
cents a pound-aRd that 10 in the face of
Folks Tariff Bill. Such language oil acts
from such men tell different story from
those who are speaking to humbug wool
growers about Folks Bill as they did about
Polk in 1912.
The truth is, the Bill takes off cents a
pound Of protection upon every class Of wool
produced in Vermont, besides permitting a
vast amount of manufactured wool TO come
in at half the duty imposed on it BY the Tariff
OF '42-and that is the came 10 our wool
growers as ifthe raw material came in at the
same duty, and death,yes death. or the next
thing TO il, TO our small wooden manufaciur-
les, such in particular as we have in the
country.
The Polk Bill also takes off SO hundred
pounds from all our Vermont wool, and 20
and 25 per cent. from articles into which our
wool is manufactured; and adds 25 per cent
10 the coarse camel's hair wool Of the tropics
This il is so well understood by the inieli-
gent locofocos, which makes them hasten TO
sell best wool even for 25 cents a pound-the
very same class of wool that they sold for
IS and 40 cents a pound before Folks cleo
lion.
