The State Conventions,

Both the wings and democrats held their State Con-
ventons at this place on Wednesday last. Each was
very respectfully attended as to numbers and the pro-
ceedings, in general, characterized by toerable de-
gree of harmony.
The Wings renomnated their old ticket with the
exception of Treasurer. Mr.. Jowett having declined,
GEORGE HowEs, of this village, Cashier of the Bank,
was nominated. The resolutions of the wings were
pretty much in the sterotyped FORM currency
protective tariff disappointed in the tariff of 46 y
distributions limitation of the veto power genuine
ant-sIavery. A resolution was also adopted pouring
Indignation and contempt upon the war with Mexico,
and applauding the bravery and economy of the Amer
lean officers and soldiers The resolution, as origin
ally reported, was an eulogy aimed at Gen. Taylor,
without including the soldiers. This elected some
discussion. Hon. Milton Brown, of Worcester could
not see the proprety and consistency of condcmnng
the war; and in the same breath euogizng those who
had lent themselves instruments tn give success
and responsibility. He would never be guilty of by
pocrisy like this Such reasonable sentiments as
these called out the organs in reply, by whom it
earnestly conended that, while the was most in
famous, yet Gen. Taylor had acted only in obedience
to the orders Of Government VIII ON he was bound to
obey, let these orders be repugnant to his feel
ings and sense of justice Gen. Taylor was especially
deserving of praise for rendering the war as humane
as possible, and contributing so efecually TO secure
its final and honorable termination meaning, we sup
pose the conquest of Mexico and the hopeless per-
petuation o American slavery. The resolution was
finally modified so as to avoid the objections of those
who were troubled with consciences. viii such
men always be so easily quoted? We trow not.
The democrats formed all entire new ticket. John
Smith having peremptoriy declined, and Gen. Ransom
having gone to Mexico Hon. Paul Dillingham; Jr., was
nominated for Governor, Chas. K Field, Of Whining
ton, for Lieut. Governor and jeremiah T. Marston OF
Montpelier, for Treasurer. The nomination of Lieut..
Governor was rendered to Hon. Levi B. Villas, of
Chelsea but declined. The resolutions were as might
be expected, applauding the administration of Mr.
Polk and the tariff of Accommodating the grievous
wrongs of Mexico denouncing the wings for their
hypocrisy on the war question-opposed to slavery,
and its extension territory free, but would
not NEEDLE with it in the states. They dare not say,
we 90 for the Wilmot Provso and for no candidate
but one pledged in its favor They remember too
well that they said about Texas, but were O.
bliged to swallow Polk, Texas and all.
Nothing was done in either conventions about a
Presidential candidate. Both squinted at Gen Taylor,
but neither dare move without more definite orders
from their masters.
Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1847-07-15

The South and the North,

The declaration of Calhoun and his adherents,
that they will support no man from the North for
that office (the Presidency who does not declare
himself opposed to the Wilmot Proviso, is, in
effect, declaring, so far as they can effect that
result, that no Northern man shall ever occupy
the Presidential chair for no man so pledging
himself could get the vote of single Northern
State. Senator Benton, whose mind is not
warped by sectional prejudices, and whose great
and comprehensive intellect is not chained to
the narrow confines of his own plantation, is
willing to give his support to Northern Demo
crat, without requiring any new tests.
The North has had but one Democratic Pres
ident since the organization of the Government
and that one (Mr Van Buren, but for a single
term While the population of the North is
more than double that of the South while il
energy, wealth, enterprise, and intelligence, the
North is far in advance nearly the whole patron
age of the Government has been bestowed on the
South 1t is about time this partial action of tht
Government should cease. If the North wills it
it can elect whom it pleases President; can mo
nopolze all the Offices and shape the action O
the government to suit itself; and if the Sout
forces on the North the issue of freedom Or sla
very, it will never cease to regret it.

utterly sinful before God" if it be uttery incuabe
and before heaven ard earth abomnabe," could not
Mr. Leavtt furnish any more cogent reasons for the
existence of anti slavery sentiments in the churches OF
Vermont than that slavery coud not hre" among our
mountains?
(3) "Bm," says Mr.. Leavitt-(a very bad and sig
nicant word to use in this connection while we are
obliged to be antisavery. we "condemn, as much as
you, the denunciaory spirit which has sometimes been
manifested" Now, we demand of Mr.. Leavltt an ex-
PLANTATION of his auson to accommodation" and "ultra-
ISM" Where is there ultraism and denunclahon IN
Vermont sufficiently organized and prominent to de-
mand this disclaimer? Where will he find stronger
anti slavery sentiments and expressions than in the
dongs of the Vermont anti slavery society while he
was its chosen president and to which he most cordial
y subscribed? Point US, if you cam to greater ultra
ism than is contained in the resolutions of the last Gen
eral Convention, to which you most heartily subscrb
ed, and was elected to carry out.
(4) What organization in this State does claim OF
wish to "interfere with the State institutions of the
SOUTH" further than can be done in Christian peace
able and constitutional manner? And would Mr.
Leavitt be satisfied with anything short Of faithful
use OF these means? Why, then, virtually say to thu
south that there are such organizations in Vermont
and thus abuse rather than "disabuse, the southern
mind on one point"
(5) Here are "brethren of a common faith" with MI
Leavtt "disciples Of a common Lord-going 10 tn
same Judgment and heaven" who are tenaciousl
welded to sin that is 'utery ncurable, and befor
heaven and earth abominabe;" ard yet, when Mr..
is sent faithfully to warn and rebuke them, he turn
pologist for the sinner and vilifes his friends!
We greatly msjudge if upon mature reflection, M
Ieavitts conscience and much more those churchC
which he represented, are satisfied with his doings.
Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1847-07-15

Slavery,

Without any disposition towards political abo-
litionism, we think that the arrogance of slavery
has gone as far as it should be permitted to go.
They (thc slaveholders) have arrogated to them
selves spirit of chiyalry which is not made
manifest by any other means than the free use of
the pistol of the duello, the bowie-knife of the
bravo, and the lash of slave driver. The means
required, not only to sustain their extravagant
dissipation but what is actually necessary for
their subsistence, is wrung from the sweat of the
bondmen and they drive human beings into the
market with as little remorse as our honest far
mcrs would the same number of hogs or oxcn-
Yet these are the men who demand that the free
men of the free States should quietly submit to
the spread Of their peculiar institution" and
view with admiration the increasing influence Of
policy that has rested like a curse upon every
community where it has been tolerated.
Much as we abhor political Abolitionism, oul
detestation of practical slavery is still greater
and we sincerely hope that our Convention, which
is shortly to assemble, will expunge from our in
stitutions every principle calculated to give ale
and comfort to policy which has been rejected
by the people of our State
