Letter from EIihu BurIitt,

By the last steamer from America, I received a copy
of the Albany Patriot, and of several other Liberty
Party papers, in which | learned, with deep regret,
that another unfortunate division was likely to ensuo
in the ranks of the abolitionists in the United States,
and upon minor points Of national policy. But, indeed
1t was with exceeding surprise that founded my name
IN the second place ON the Presidential ticket of the
new party. Owing to an unusual press of engage
ments, | have not yet been able to read the long and
elaborate exposition Of the reasons which have induc-
ed our brethren Of New York to assume an independ-
ent organization; which must again sub divide the
friends Of the slave in America, and consequently still
farther impair that irresistible front of moral power,
which, II united and unanimous, they might push stead
NY forward against the institution of slavery, until it
were swept from the last acre Of American soil. As
the American mail is on the eve of departure, | can
not now advert to all the grounds of my conviction,
that such a movement must be unfortunate for the
cause Of human liberty in the United States. For one,
| have all along INDUCED the hope, that instead # any
new divisions being created among the earnest friends
of the slave, the old ones might be healed; until the
"Old" and New Organizations might merge into a
band OF brothers on the plat orm, even if they did not
meet at the polls. Such a union, am sure, would car
~ new hope to the slave, and new fear to the slave
holder, and joy and rejoicing to the friends of freedom
IN other lands who cannot understand the nature and
necessity Of the antagonsms that have distracted or
weakened the ranks of their American brethren. And,
will conf IS it here and now, | had thought that this
happy consummation so devoutly to be wished, might
be facilitated by the sottenlng and socialising lnfu-
ence which the operations OF the League of Universal
Brotherhood might exert upon the community. | had
hoped Tint the leading men of the Old and New Or
CARNATIONS, would be frequently attracted together,
upon the platform Of the League, in its monthly meet
ings, and there feel the fraternal %afinities of true phil
%anthropy %qn'ckened within them, until, at least, their
present division had lost its bitterness. Feeling thus,
l cannot but d%eprecate any movement which must re-
snIt in a new division in the friends of the slave in the
United States; especially in a division upon points ex-
trlneous to the great and mighty idea, that all M en-
are born free, and equal in a legal sense. | therefore
must beg that my name be withdraw from the con-
nection in which it has been placed BY the new Lib
erty Party in New York. LLlHU BURRITT.

W hat is tbe SIGN,

1t is said that no annual meetings Of churches,
South or North, has been held, in which slavery
in one form or another, has not been discussed.
What is the sign? That our whole people are
discussing upon it. A letter from a friend of ours
in Georgia, says -
X ono matter what is said. If YOU
in Kentucky could move, and give impulse to
Tennessee, so that she could act, all of Western
Georgia would 90 for emancipation. Such coun-
ties as Habersham, are made up Of small farmers
and they detcst the institution. We all look to
Kentucky and to you with hope"
We have similar letters from Tennessee East.
A writer from Jonesboro', says, GIVE the word
in Kentucky and we will answer YOU instantly.
We are ready, A friend from Jefferson, Ashe
County, North Carolina, declares--'Slayery
exists in name here, but we have all its evils
forced upon US, and | DON'T know but two lead
ing men who would oppose the doing away Of it:
away dow to Middle North Carolina the feeling
is the same.
Other letters from the sllye States are equally
as strong. We may understand therefore why it
is that the churches have this subject up before
them so constantly, The people are discussing
it, 1t has the theme, almost every where Of So
cill debate, and religious men, discourse.-Lou

The State CT the Parties.

The following resolutions and extracts from papers
of the Wing party North and South, show that there
IS a vast distinction in the sayings of the two, Will
it be kept up, or will it finally be lost in the subservi-
ency of northern men to southern d~ctation?
ReSolHt'ons Of the Wig State ConrcatiOn in
Georgia.
Resolved, That the Hon. John C, Calhoun is enti-
tied to the thinks Of the people of Georgia, for his
independent and patriotic course in the Senale of the
United States, in reference to our rece1tly disturbed
foreign relations.
Resolved, That we are opposed to the Wilmot Pro-
vIso, so called; and that all Legislation, by Congress,
restricting the right to hold slave property in the Ter
ritories of the United States, is unequal, unjust, and
unconstitutional.
Resolution Of the Wig State Convention IN
Maine.
Resolved, That, believing the leading object of
the acquisition of territory in the Southwest, by an
nexation or conquest, has been to extend ard strength
en- the institution of slavery, and, by a multiplication
OF slaVehoIdlng States, to control the political power
OF the country, by retaining a majority in the United
States Senate; and, believing slavery to be at wal with
civilization, social progress, and the inalienable rights
OF man, we hold, that so far as the power over this in
stltution is in the hands Of the General Government.
that power should be exerted TO limit and abolish, and
never to extend or perpetuate.
ReSOlutiOn Of the Wig COnvrntiOn of the I'd
Congressional district Of Alabama.
Resolved, that we hold in utter defiance the urinci-
Piles of the Wllmot and King Proviso, and will oppose
the execution of their project by the constitutional
means of the b%ollot-box, and, if forced by any means

For the Green Mountain Freeman
W bio Policy.

Mr.. EDIToR:-I notice by the last Freeman, that
two wing papers in our own state have hoisted the
Taylor flag. This is what l have been expecting and
is only another development of the true character of
our great opponent, the wing party, Great opponent,
| say, because consider pretended friends more dan
gerous than o~utspoken enemies.
That the wing party, processing opposition to the
war, opposed to slavery, styling itself the only true
Liberty party-should nominate for President Zacha-
ny Taylor, a man fighting for the extension of slavery,
a STAKEHOLDER HIMSELF must astonish the unsophistica-
ted. Here is consistency personiied, consistency in
deed; consistency of a piece with the movements
and measures Of that party for the last eight years.
General Taylor will be supported by large masses
of wings, of whom | will name,
LIST. By the slaveholding and slave supporting por-
ton Of his party.
Cd. BY those rather flexible and plant persons some
times styled dough-faces, individuals who have never
in all their life time had the trouble of thinking for
themselves, who depend upon other men for all their
opinions and ideas. Such i%noffensive characters will
easily be c%onyinced that the party are anti-Texa5, an
ti-slavcry, antI-war, and that Gen. Taylor is the man
of men for President,
Sd. He will also draw largely upon another class by
the splendor of his victories; those blinded by the blaze
Of glory which surrounds the c%onqueror.
But there isl class, and a large class of sound
thinking men who will never again vote for a slave
holder.
The whig party may rally as sit pIeases upon the
splendid achievements of the hero, in our cruel and
bloody war they may boast his skill, courage and
great abilities; they may extol the merits of old
"Rough and Ready" but it will not avail. Bitter ex-
pcrience in the two last Presidential elections has
taught these men the danger and the fallacy of doing
evil that good may come. The wings will raise the
E cry of expedlency, they will compass sea and land to
secure Taylor's election, but they will not, of course,
have the impudenco to call upon Liberty men to assist
them.
The above is not mere speculation Or the, ry, but
conclusions drawn from a close observation of the
movements Of the wings for the last six months, and
from remarks made by large classes of individuals
with whom have recently had personal conversation
