Austria. The people Of Rome, aware Of
the uncertain policy Of Plus K, 10 the |.
Italian question, had been stimulating him
for some time past with addresses, to IN.
duce him to declare war against Austria.
He assembled the college Of cardinals, and
IN o consisiory made speech which caus.
ed the greatest anxiety throughout Rome.
lie said that all he had done up to this day
was the mere fulflmeBt Of the memoran.
DUN OF 1880; that he could not, as the
head of the church, declare war against
his children in Christ that if other prin.
cesses OF Italy bad taken part IN the
struggle, they bad been driven to do so by
their subjects; that the Ponlifcal troops
had received no other mission than thu, of
defending his own States, and that If they
had crossed the Pc they had transgressed
his orders. Meantime, great preparations
were in progress. The Ministry resigned,
en- masse but Plus refused TO accep, their
resignation. Ga the Both ult.. the whole
general staff held sitting. The munci.

Mr ClaYmHiS Position, &c,

Rather for the purpose of mpartng information than
for the attainment of any other object letter from
Hon. Henry Clay, dated Ashland, July 2, l848, has
been shown to u.s. 1t is in reply to addressed to
him, by of his Oldest most valued and respected
friends, asking him what steps he intended to adopt
in relation to the nomination of Gen. Zachary Taylor
Mr.. Clay replies, in substance, that he will not, at
the present time, indicate any particular purpose, and
nmates that he is not aware that his opinions the
subject in question can be of any consequence to the
public at large. "At present." he has nothing to say
except that he shall exercise what influence he pos
sesses to maintain the integrity and constancy of the
Wing party in his own State, (Kentucky) and ulti-
matey if it shall become necessary present his views
on the Presidential election, if an expose of the kind
SHALL in his Judgment seem necessary to The world.
We infer, from the contents of the letter in ques-
tion though the substance of it only was read to US
as we looked at it. that MI Clay has no especial de-
sire to see Gen. Taylor elected tho he will do nothing
against his prospects defeat the end of his ambition
If however, it shall seem necessary that the states
man of Ashland should indicate preference for Gen
Taylor all other candidates. we infer that he viii

ingy by L. Howard, ESQ, of Danvllle, Cooper, Row.
ell, Parker and others, and passed off in way well
tending to please and encourage the aborers The fol-
lowing resolutions were passed.
Resolved That the time and the signs of the times
demand of every true friend of Liberty to come ou
from all connection with slavery. and declare by the
acts, as well Words that that they are determined
never more to bow the knee to that scum of all william
| les.
Resolved That the trucking servility which the two
great political parties have manifested to Slavery ir
their selection of candidates for President, furnish
proof positive that slavery is the great controlling ee
ment of their political existence and leave no Other
alternative to those who prefer freedom to slavery, bu
to dissolve all connection with them.
Resolved That it should be the pride and glory O.
every true patriot, who despises oppression and des
posm, to have an opportunity to give his vote for
man occupying the position Of our illustrous candi
date for President, John P. Hale, who stands upon the
broad platform of Eternal TRUTH and Equal Justice t.
all men.
Resolved That we hail with joy every indication o
returning consciousness and the triumph of principles
over tyranny; and especially the bold and fearless
manner in which the opposers of despotism in Bartol
express themselves, and bid them God-speed in tn
glorious work they have began.
ResOlved, That we highly approve of the nomina
ton made at the District Convention recently held
Montpelier of A. JUDsoN RowELL, as candidate 70
Representative to Congress, and most earnestly cal
upon all the freemen of Orleans County, who wou
oppose the further extension of save-power, to Civ
him their suffrages in the coming election.

not accept of nomination, if offered him. The minds
of the Convention had been prepared for the support
of some other man. when they came together and had
this i'm preston been seasonably removed Gov Eaton
would probably have received the nomination. AS it
was the people had decided in favor of the nomina-
ton of Judge Williams, and so had majority of the
Convention. The nomination of Coolidge, therefore,
under such circumstances was a fraud upon both
effected by unustifable means, and to effect other
objects, not necessarily connected with the election
of State officers.
1t remains to be proved how far the Freemen ofthe
State, will consent to be transferred by trading poll
tcians stock in trade for their especial benefit
Many of the Convention, and many even of the peo-
pie, repudiae this nomination entirely and call loudly
for the nomination of Judge Williams, who was in
every thing but FORM the choice of the Conven-
ton, receiving repeatedly from the nominating COM
mittee one half their entire VOTE he fairly entitled
to the nomination in form; but he suppanted by
trick, and deprived of what large majority of that
Convention would now gladly give him, in public
declaration Of his nomination. Justice to himself and
to the freemen of the State, and to the Wing party in
particular, demand of Judge Williams that he should
consent to receive the surages of such as are dis
posed to bestow them upon him-and we pledge him
the support of many thousands. The time is near at
hand when the opportunity will again for an ex-
preston of the feelings of the people in relation to
this ect Should the wishes of the people be re-
garded, and Judge Williams become the candidate Of
the Free Convention, he will then stand forth as the
honored champion of the long cherished principles Of
great majority of the ffeemen of Vermont, and I'M
fettered and free from the restraints of all or any par
ties connected with the support of slavery he will raj
ly to his support the real FREE MEN of the State
and will leave Carlos Coolidge as far behind him in
the vote of the people, as he in the vote of the
Convention. Every free Wing will respond to the call
of his country In this hour of her greatest peril-ant
Vermont will be free
