10 the Honest friends Of Freedom.

Mr. EDIToR--As the slave power In the United
States has again succeeded in nominating friends of
slavery for President for both the great political par
ties of the Union and thus put at Defiance the com
mon sense, the moral feeling and the spirit of Free
dom, at present so rife in the whole Republic; the
time has arrived when honest men should speak out
their sentiments and feelings upon the folly and wick
edness, even, of the Norths bowling again to the
Slave power. Have northern Democrats and Wings
subscribed to the doctrine of the southern politicians,
that government is based upon slavery as Its toun
dalton? If this is SO with those who are looking for
Office am satisfied it is not so with those who have
offices to bestow-the people. The delegates from
Vermont to the Baltimore and Philadelphia conven-
tions in asserting to the nomination ofCass and Tay
lor and in pledging the electoral vote of Vermont to
either the or the other of them, guilty of
libel upon the Freemen of the State. That men who
are hoping to get Office, land their only is to
have their party succeed will support the nominations
doubt not; but that men who looking for nothing
but the good of the country who have sound honest
principle, and have over and again vouched they
would not vote for another stakeholder, or who
was not opposed to the extension of slavery-that
such men will vote either for Taylor or Cass, do not
believe; and wish that all who feel disposed to take
their stand upon this subject and are determined to
break away from the slavery supporting party with
which they have hitherto acted would come out to
State Convention on the 4h of July, and help NOM
mate ticket pledged to Freedom.
Let me say to Whigs-Taylor is a Stakeholder
this stands confirmed by his friends, and will you yes
you wing, who detest slavery and slaveholdng, will
you vote for him? You Christian man-moral man
lover of your country-will you exert all your moral
religious and political power for slavery? May God
forbid can but hope you will NOW, when you can
but see that all the professions of the Wing party,
party, and individuals, that they opposed to
slavery and its extensionthat they have thrown out
all these sayings and made all these professions to
save their party, and sell it entire to Taylorsm war,
and Slaverythis the leaders, and wire-workers have
done; but the people generally honest, and hon
esty opposed to slavery; and am mistaken, if multi
tudes of Wings and Democrats do not now break
away from political slavery and join in the crusade for
Freedom.
Let me say, then, to Wing, Democrat, Liberty man,
Provso man, and all lovers of Liberty, what ever your
name turn out to our State Convention and strike
blow for the rights of the bondman, and Heaven will
approve the deed. CALEDONIA.
