Yes Fellow Citizens.

there are many of immense Importance And a.
mong the rest a contest not new but now marked
with peculiar and alarming features A conflict
between the two great antagonist powers of Free
dom and Slavery, and wagcd with an acrimonv
and fierceness hitherto unprecedented in the his
tory Of the county. 1t is also contest not for
the abolition of slavery in those states where it IS
unhappiy guaranteed by the constitution but TO ar
rest Its extension TO territory where congress can
constitutionally prohibit it 1t is opposition to
the unhallowed scheme Of Texas annexation BY
which the South are attempting to chain the
whole nation to The car of slavery forever 1t is
inextngushablc war against the present admins
ration for prostrating the barriers of the constu
tlon IN loathsome attempt to conquer a sister
Republic, in the accomplishment of its abominable
projects Of perpetuatng slavery and rendering its
power forever inyincible in the councils of the
Union.
And now fellow citizens can you look calmly
on, and behold your millions of treasure, and the
Dcst blood OF the nation spent in project so dis
astrous to liberty, so hazardous to the Union,
ana which If successful must debase the North to
complete subserviency to Southern dominationl
But IN relation to this giant struggle to extend
ana perpetuate the slave power at present so over
shadoWing in its bearings upon the welfare of the
country. to which may be added the veto on the
harbor bill, the swindle of Oregon-the determin
alton OF locofocoism to sustain Free Trade as
evinced in the reduction of the tariff of 1912, un-
DER other circumstances would of itselfawaken all
the elements of conflict to the most intense activ-
iy.
But thanks to the intelligence and patriotism of
American Freemen we have abundant occasion
10 reJoice that the people have been fully aroused,
and the popular will most unequivocally manifest
ed IN the recent elections throughout the country.

All Hail Tennessee.

Even his own native state repudiates james X.
Polk and his despicablc, and when VIC look to the
neglected interests Of this great country, VIC may
say patriots, his heart rending schemes to build
up himself by building up an overshadowing slave
power so dear to the hearts of that arstocracy Of
Cotton Bales & Tobacco Hogheads which aims to
CONTROL the policy of the government in all time
to come. Tennessee we'll knows the small speci-
men of statesman who is attempting to Lord it
over the country. She disowns him in COM
plete reputation of his course as to the war, an
nexaton, harbor bill, Free trade, Subtreasury &c.
&c. comprehending the most loathsome list Of
wrongs ever inflicted upon the country. She has
elected a wing Governor overcoming majority
of some Is or l6 hundred majority last year. She
has secured whig Legislature, and consequently
Wing Senator in Congress to be elected at the
next session and a whig delegation in Congress
having elected six out of the IL which compose

Wings and Freemen.

1t cannot be necessary at the present moment
to urge upon the Wings of Vermont the variou,
motives which should influence them to faithful
discharge of their duties at the polls on the ap-
preaching election. Every intelligent freeman
must already understand that the Ballot Boxes
constitute the great conservative power of the na-
tion 1t is here that the people exercise the ma
gestic sovereignty which belongs to them in the
government of the country. Here sets the grand
tribunal which is to render verdict upon the
men whom the people have entrusted with power,
and decide upon the measures which they have
adopted in conducting the affairs with which they
have been entrusted. If any doubts have been
created in the minds of the best and most enlpht-
ened patriots in the enduring capacity of the peo-
pie for self government they have sprung from
the apathy of large portion of the best and most
conservative portion Of community in appearing
at the polls, thus resigning the reins of govern
ment into the hands of the mercenary boards who
are sure to be there to help secure the spoils of
Office to the ambitious leaders who stimulate their
very patriotic efforts.
But are there not reasons of peculiar weight to
urge every freeman to a jealous discharge of his
duties at the Ballot Boxes at the present moment1
The northern galaxy. [volume] (Middlebury, Vt.) 1844-1848, 1847-08-31

the laurels Of victory are still more numerous and
brilliant. In every state we have made unexpect-
ed gains except in Kentucky where loss OF one
has been sustained and that from local circum-
stances. 1t is now ascertained that from major
.ity Of over 60 votes in body composed OF more
than two Hundred members the party by whom
this administration was brought into power will
find itselfin a minority of at least ten votes.
Thus does the steady advance Of wing princi-
pies indicate Enthusiastically then ultimate
triumph. Then wings of Vermont have you ev-
ery reason to be treasured in your endeavors to
restore the fortunes of the Republic.

Go then to the Polls

with an undivided 'front.' and with all the strength
of the mass composed of every whig who can 90
in the state Nothing but inexcusable careless
ness can prevent glorious triumph by thousands
majority and not by hundreds at the BallotBoxes'
But the freemen of Vermont should remember that
all the hostile elements of third partyism in the
Union are being brought by the shrewd scheam-
ers and demagogues of that party to bear upon
the election, and that by the division in the wing
ranks thus occasioned locofocoism reeling and
fanting away in other states in the Union, is look
ing for at least partial success if not final VIC
tory Awake then wings. We want an effective
work to prevent dshonor if not defeat. We want
no noise nor parade, but We want that work which
brings every man to the polls and secures wing
victory. This the wings of other states have
right to expect from the

but that since the recommencement OF the work
1904 600 have been expended upon it, and That the est
mate for its completion is trihe more than 100000.
The bondhoders will therefore, be able 10 finish the
work for about 81 100000 which is less by about $500
600 than the original estimate 1t is believed that the
work will be completed by next September The Canal
has surface of sixty feet and depth OF six feet But
to realize all the advantages Of this enterprise the lii
