EyT We find in the Boston Journal, report
ofthe doings of the Liberty Convention. We
cannot copy the whole to day, but give the fol-
lowing, which we believe embodies the spirit that
manifested
The LAST OF THE LIBERTY PARTY. This
morning, meeting of the Liberty Party of this
State was held at the Melodeon in this city. Dr.
CALEB SWAN was appointed President pro TEN.
and DR.. William F. Charming, Secretary A
Committee OF FIVE was Nominated 10 report re-
gular organization land while they were deiberat-
ing, DR. Swan took occasion to give history of
the rise and progress OF the Buffalo Convention
IT, which he was delegate.
He stated that every thing at that Convention
was fairly done, and that the Liberty PARTY for
the first time, had there been treated not with
sneer, but as friends, and that there they had
been taken into communion with the Dis.
affected Wings and Barnburners, to form
a great National Party; it was a solemn
movement that soemnIy fills the heart of
every Patriot with joy; and the feeling that led
to the new union is one in which the over.ruling
hand of Providence is to be seen, and which the
hand OF man has not controlled He concluded
by hoping that all would go with their hearts in
their hands for Van Buren, and Free Soil"

The Whigs CT the South who stood with us
against Texas, when Van Buren, went for it with
all his heart, and voted in "Polk, Dallas, and
Texas" will stand by still in the hour Of
trial-True Wing.
Now, the is, Van Buren, went for Texas,
but opposed il strongly did Mr.. Clay. To under>
stand how strongly certain of"the Wings" opposed The
annexation Of that slave counrywe have only to amend
slightly another paragraph, which appeared III the Tue
Wing, last week, as follows:
The resolutions annexing Texas 10 this Union, were
passed in the u. s. Senate by vote of 81 to 25-
Among The ayes were Messrs Henderson of Mss John
son Of La and Merrick of Md, Wings. Each Of these
gentlemen is loud mouthed advocate for Taylor.
The votes of any eo them four years would have
kept Texas prevented The war; and saved thousands
OF lives and the question OF extending slavery could
never have been raised.
1t may be added that another Wing Senator Foster of
Tenn was fully in favor of The annexation, and would
probably have voted yea had his vote been necessary
to carry the measure. Eight Wings in the House voted
for Texas and The Resolutions for il drawn up and
proposed in that body by Milton Brown of Tenn. Wing

is composed of. c.
