The State Convention.

This convention the proceedings of which will be
found in another column, was well attended, consider
inc all the circumstances and its interest increased to
the end. Owing to the backwardness of the season.
and the consequently hurried condition Of agricutu-
raj business and more especially to the late eXtraod
nary f. eshet in the northern and northwestern section
of the State, destroying vast amount of property
and rendering the roads almost impossible, the atten
dance not large could have been wished, or
as was our last years convention Our expectations,
however, in this respect were more than answered..
Eight counties well represented.
A good amount of business was transacted, IN
harmonious and satisfactory manner. The discussions
were deeply interesting particularly during the after
noon of the last day. when our brother GARNET ad-
dressed the Ladies by request on the subject of their
duty towards their brethren and sisters groaning in
Southern bondage. While listening to his touching
and eloquent appeals we could but feel almost over
whelmed with indignation that he, for the crime of
having such a complexion as God gave him, should
be driven away from even the second table of one of
our boats on Lake Cllamplain, while drunkards and
vagabonds welcomed to the first.
Our old State ticket was re-nominated by acclama-
tion and feel confident that better one cannot be
selected in the State. Good and true men, eminenty
qualified in every respect for the offices to which they
are nominated it is with no ordinary degree of pleas
ure that present their claims to the citizens of Yer
mont and ask for them the confidence and support of
the public.
On the subject of National Convention, delegates
were appointed but no vote was taken as to the time
of holding such convention. THIS was left undone
able to learn, the friends nearly or quite unani-
nous in favor of holding it the approaching autumn.

GREEN MOUNTAIN FREEMAN.

much indeed, have the facts in the case exceeded
what the most suspicious could have imagined.
Not content with an unjust requirement Of Texas,
our armies are forced upon the plains of Mexico to
destroy her towns and cities and STAY her men, women
and children while the successful candidate converts
all the functions Of his Office to the prosecution OF this
dsgracefu warthe other would lament his inability to
engage in the scenes of the battle field, but wish all
success to American Arms and hope that he may yet
be enabled to STAY one Mexican.
In AZ the cry is and probably will be in AS for Cen
Taylor Presidenta man who if possible is more hostile
to northern advancement than any proceeding candid
ate Upon the honors having made three successful
attacks upon the Men and Arms of Sister Nation, he
is to draw after him the north, while his devotion tc
southern interests will secure for him the vote Of that
portion of the Union; and in case of his election, jud
gng from the past, what dark and fearful events
await us in the ensuing four years!
In view of the few facts here mentioned, we ask Il
there is not evidence of firm determination on the
part of the SOUTH against the free institutions of North
Ifso, we ask again. is it not the duty of northern
citizens to unite in opposing this evil determination
Aud should not we stand by and firmly maintain on
own rights and secure to ourselves our better inter
ests? Do not daily developments go to show the ne
cessity of just such organization as ours one tina
shall bring its powers to bear against slavery knowing
it to be the first and only of southern aggression
And lastly is the Liberty Party right? IT, d. H.

wish to see other reforms Aourshthen let us take
hold Of them like philosophers as well as philan-
thropists, showing that we have the wisdom of
serpent with the harmlesness of dove. Let us
attend upon all the duties enoined upon US, in
their proper place-for consistency, does not re-
quire us, while laboring for one good object, to
block the wheels of another. If we understood
the proper place for everything, and willing there
to let it rest, all things would move on in harmo-
ny; but let one portion of the system get out OF
order, any part misplaced, and we shall have
confusion.
Let the Liberty party be the fixed fact that it
has been Let us be united on the common
platform on which we have all stood, and upon
which we have invited all to come Let us re-
main free and Independent as we have been, hay
ing the right to select our own candidates, and
the power to vote for them and none other
And let our structure be as enduring as the foun-
dation on which it stands not looking forward
anxously to the time when our labors shall be
done, but expecting to labor on and hope on until
complete success crown our ehorts-not only till
when chatteI slavery is abolished but until every
evil within the reach Of the civil power is rene
died. and the proper end and object of human
government is fulfilled in the protection of the
natural rights of all men.-- Western Ctlzm.

The Vermont Conference.

By the favor of brother Aspenwall, We give in an
other column the appointments of preachers which
made at the late session of this conference, holden
at Irasburgh last week.
From the Irasburgh Record, we learn that little was
done besides the usual appointments and business
From a verbal source, we are informed that the sub
ject of slavery which came before that body by the
report of committee as usual, was likely, from the
great pressure Of BUSINESS to receive the goby where
upon our faithful brethren Putnam, Aspenwa and
others, gave "certan sound" which brought the
conference to their Senses and led TO definite and de-
cded action on the subjecta part Of which was the
adoption of the following resolutions, introduced by
bro. Putnam
WHEREAS, the General Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church is delegated body of limited
powers, having no authority to change alter or a
mend that which Is funda mental, without the con-
currence oil three-tourhs OF all the Annual Confer
ences and whereas the eXtirpation Of American
Slavery has ever been the settled policy of the
church, and there having been no action of the
Annual Conferences to the contrary, therefore Re-
solved,
lst That in the judgment of this Conference, the
General Conference is not competent to legisate in
relation to this great evil, otherwise than for its extr
patton, and that all legislation in relation to it which
does not directly tend to this, is unconstitutional null
and void.
Cd. That the plan of dsunon adopted by the Gen
era Conference at its last session. as it has not been
concurred in by the Annual Conferences nor has
been approved of by the church, nor has been com
piled with by those for whose accommodation it was
originated is null and void; and that, consequently
our geographical boundaries are in no way to be eff.
feced by it; and those who see fit to adhere to the
church, in every part of the land are to be provided
for, the same as though no such movement had been
made.
3D.. That we instruct our delegates to the next Gen
eral Conference, not 20 consent to any plan arrange
ment which shall require u.s. as Methodists, or as chris
ans to recognize the late Southern organization or to
have any fellowship for it, or in any way to give it
countenancc or support inOsmuch it was origina-

While many Wing papers oppose IN bold and
becoming spirit the efforts to elevate Gen Taylor
to the Presidency, others are more careful, and
qualify their positions with innumerabe its and
butS. They would wish to be understood as OPP
posed to the movement, bit should the Wing
party be 50 unfortunate as to have him thrust up
on it, they will support him.
These ifs and buts never will do at the present
crisis. There is a sacred principle at stake. The
South offer man for the highest Office i'll the
gift ofhe people, in order "to PIT dorm the anti
slavery tcctiag Of the country" Shall we hest
tate, qualify terms, fdltcr, and submit; or shall
We like true friends Of freedom, stand TO our
posts and resist the further aggrcssions of the
slave power, with that dignity, learlessness, and
cador, thqt becomes frccmcn! There should
be no latering or tremblng-thc question should
be met at once Says an eastern paper, "Here
is positive STAKEHOLDER put forward, to put down
Liberty, and put up Slavery Does he deserve
even hypothetical vote This is the most I'M
portant moment of great political battle. Opin-
ion is now in the grlstlc 1t has been largely
right or tending the right way. Now comes a
mighty influence to turn it all wrong, and fasten
it there Tens of thousands are in state OF
doubt, their anti-sIavery principles are beginning
to fllter, it only needs an appearance of doubt
quantity of ifs, pile of hypothesis from the
anti-savery standard bearers, to give our enemic,
victory far more complete than Taylor's at
Buenp Vista. Oi-hand, it really seems to us
that in such State of facts, every doubt, if, and
hypothesis, should be sunk to the nethermost
and the principle hoistcd at the mast head anc
fixed there with nails, no siapcholdcr, no mstru
mcnt IF the shareholders 'car, for the Presidency
We can see no reason for an editors proceeding
with reserve, and caution, for his not running
away from his party when he would not lead tina
party up to the right; but when his party is rush
ing headIong into wrong and disgrace, we canno
see the wisdom Of any sort Of reserve.

Insult. and Outrage,

We ask attention to the letter of our highly esteem.
ed brother Garnet which we publish this week, de-
failing the brutal treatment he last week received on
board the Saranac, on Lake Champlain in being dry
en- away from the table of the boat, and rendered a
"lunch" in some dark corner, where his prescribed
color and pestferous breath might not outrage the
pale-facod urstocrOcy with which he was surrounded
We blush and are astonished that this relic of bar
barsm is yet rife in our midst and the managers OF
this boat can choose the alternative of promptly dis
claiming and abandoning this Outrageous conduct, OF
allow it to be held up for the consideration of public
that never will submit to prejudice ard inhumaniy
like this.

ted by such as utterly refused to submit to the dsc-
pline of the church, and for the express purpose Of
sustaining system of inquty, which the venerable
Wesley denounced the sum OF all Hainles' ana as
being the vilest that ever saw the sun.
4tR. That we deeply sympathise with those OF our
brethren at the South who for adherng to the church.
and for refusing to identify themselves with the new
organization are now enduring great fight OF alc,
ton and we cannot believe that thot the church Will
vet prove so recreant to every principle oil CHRISTIAN
ity, as to desert item in this their hour of trial
9Th. That in the judgment of this Conference, is
incumbent on the constituted authorities OF the church
Immediately to make the necessary provisions to ena
Bile them to sustain their allegiance to the church, and
in no wise to leave them to the disposal of Slavehod
ing Bishops, Elders, and Deacons.
9th. That we recommend to the General Confer
ence so to amend the Section on Slavery as to make
it what it purports to be- rule for the extirpaton
the evil of Slavery and that they restore the genera
rule on this question to its original form.
Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1847-06-24

We have ever believed, and supposed that it
has been almost universally conceded by Liberty
men, that the Liberty party is a fixed fact that
1t is an independent organization, as much as
any political party can be, acting in concert with
no other party, and equally opposed to the other
two;-that it is permanent party-a national
party-a party designed for success, and destined
to exist when the immediate cause of its organ
ization may have been rcmoyed-that it embra-
ces within itself capacity not only for the liberia
ton of the slave, but for administering the gov
eminent on the principles of Justice, for the good
OF all. Such have ever been our views-such
we believe has been the sentiment expressed by
our conventons-such we have ever advocated
In the Citizen from its first starting to the present
day-and such will probably still be cur opinions
and our course of action, notwithstanding short
breathed eXpedicncy and tred-out compromise,
on the one hand, and inpatient new-issucs, head
strong trce-trade, and intolerant advocacy of
the whole ground Of reform, on the other. NAV
press hard upon us. We would not be too self
confident, nor will we pledge ourselves never to
grow wiser, but 1t is certain that we shall not
change our course without calm and delibcr-
ate thought and investigation nor until we are
cQgvmced that we are wrong.
1t seems to us that this is true ground-that
1t is the ground of harmony and progress-that
so long as we have kept and do keep upon it. we
shall prosper, and shall do our work 1t seems
to be the middle ground between extremes, on
each side Of which are errors that, into which if
we fall, will in the end be our ruin.
1t has existed eight years, passed unscathed
through two Presidential elections, and has there
not been time enough to show to the world thqt
we are fixed factl and that from our past exis
tence, we have the organs of being-vital ener
gies and heart to keep up the circulation;
selfperpetuating principle to renew itself as it
life wearies way! Why should we not continu,
for the future as we have been for the past? Ar,
not our principles the same and does not tn,
necessity for existence continue as great! |
we are to dissolve into our original elements, o
form on new basis, does it not rest rather wit
ourselves than with any of the circumstance
about US and if we die, is it not the death Q
a suicide? Enemies from without cannot harm
us--we are invulnerable to their assauts-f the
