Free Speech! Free Soil!

Time works many marvels. To secure the ia

for President, in 1886, to VETo any bill that
might pass, AbolshIng Slavery in the District
of Columbia. Nor is this all While Vice Pres

passed the Senate by the casting vote of MIR.

SENATOR UPHAm.-We are at all times glad
to chronicle the acts Of good and faithful SER
want of the people; and it has been with
pleasurable feeling of pride that we have noti-
ced that in all the exciting scenes in The u. s.
Senate in regard to the question of slavery, in
all the different phases it has assumed, that our
Senator, Mr.. Upham, has always been at his post
and has always been found upon the right side
- and not only on this question-but on all 9TH
ers. But more especially will our Senator
receive the thanks at this time of his constitu-
ency for his action and vote on the late so called
Compromise bill reported by the select terrific
rial Committee .-Rutiand Herald
A deserved compliment. During the late ex-
citing contest for freedom, we observe that
Senator Upham has ever been at his post, early
and late, and by voice and vote fearlessly and
truly represented the anti slavery sentiment of
Vermont. The unfortunate misstep of Senator
Phelps only gave new zeal and energy to Mr..
Upham's opposition to the Compromise bill We
shall publish Mr. Upham's speech, and also Mr..
Marshs on the same subject as soon as possible.

TIE BUFFALo NoMNATIoNs.-The Barre
Patriot, one of the ablest and most influential
papers in Worcester County, (Mass.) says
"The Buffalo nominations are acting like a
charm in restoring harmony among the Wings.
The honest yeomanry of this part Of The State
thought the Aliens, the Adamses, the Summers
and Philipses, meant something when they OBJ
jected to Gen. Taylor OIL the ground of his not
being Wing. But since these men have &C
knowlcdged allegiance to Van Buren,, no credit
whatever is given to their TRADES az INST Gen.
Taylor. Another thing which is materially di-
minishing the small artillery of the Free Soilers
is the passage of the Oregon Bill with the Pro
viso annexed, Our Wing friends are beginning
to learn there is no necessity Of leaving their
own party for the purpose of securing Free Soil
and Free Labor"

From our Extra of Aug. 10.
TO THE WINGS OF VERMONT.

Let our position a member Of the state com.
mittee be the warrant for a few words Of warning
and advice.
Since the announcement of the nomination
of Mr.. VAN buren, at Buffalo, we have received
intelligence from different parts of the State,
sufficient TO warrant us in warning the Wings of
Vermont of the course their opponents are to
pursue. The leaders of The late Liberty party
have already ratified the nomination of MARTIN
VAN buren,; and with the exception of here
and there a locofoco bunker, 10 be found main
ly in the strong locotoco counties, where nothing
is to be gained by coalition against the Wings
the leaders Of The idte locotoco party are joining
heartily in the support of their old master. We
hear of some honorable exceptions in the Liber.
ty party, of men who will not be sold for ''mess
of pottage'; but we are fully authorized in af
tirming that A COALITION HAS BEEN FORMED, by
union Of the leaders of the ultra abolitionists
with those who have hitherto been the supple
tools of the slave power,
Their prPuse is 10 coalesce on The Slate, Con
gresSionai, Senatorial and torn tickets, with O
view to break down the Wing party-io secur.
a coalition majority in The Legislature, and 10 di
ride The State offices and U. S. Senaiorship among
few restless and ambitious demagogues, who
have never yet joined any party but to rule i
for their own advantage, and to Jetrau IL wheI
they could not rule
AS to the Presidency, their views are as dis
cordant as the materials by which the coalition
is formed. While the Liberty men are flattere
with the hope of defeating Taylor, the NOR
cunning locofoco plottcrs in this coalitio
scheme see in it only the means of absorbin
the Liberty party-of breaking down the VIII
party in the North, which has for years manfu
ly battled in defence of the North against tn
Slave power and of SECURING THE L
LECTION OF LEWIS CAsS, The .Noriher
Doughface, BY THROWING THE PRES
DENTAL ELECTION INTO THE HOUSE
Not one OF them anticipates the election of Va
Buren,; not one of them dreams for a momei
that Van Buren, Congress can be elected,
as to carry out their newborn free soil prime
pies. No! they see, they expect, no triumph
that sort. But they do see that in the prese
Congress, which is to elect the President, if II
people fail of electing, the Cass men have pit
raity of States; and by diuiding the North
by carrying possibly state or two for Van b,
ren-they calculate that Congress ,eiA Gle

COMPLIMENTS TO CAss. Charles X. Field,
late locofoco candidate for Lieut.. Governor, thus
speaks of Gen. Cass;
"In no event whatever can be induced &c
vote for him he is cowardly-an unprncpled
political hack and marvellous worthy nomi-
nee of the political trickscrs who assembled a
Baltimore"
What is there in the professions or con
duct of Cass that should en,ite him to a baC
prominence over Van Buren,? or to the con
demnaiion of any radical and reckless 'poitica
hack" like Charley himself?

Caught A TARTAR"-E. S. Hamlin of the
True Democrat, passed down the Lake on Mon
day. On the way he addressed the passengers
on board, and during his remarks took occasion
to allude to Gen. Taylor's views as in favor of
the extension of slavery when another gentle
man desired to correct him, who stated that but
but few days ago, he was at Gen. Taylor's res
dence, and had conversation with hun on the
subject. The General expressed himself strong
y opposed to any further extension of slavery,
and in favor of admitting .New .nerico, &c. as free
Territory. Hamlin said no more about Gen.
TAYLOR being in favor of slave. extension.

The Cuss men recently nominated Judge RED
FIELD for Congress, and it was arranged so as
to have the Free Sellers also nominate him.
We rather regret that the Judge has forestaed

candidate. As did Judge WILLIAMS with the
Middlebury Convention, so does Judge RID

BEWARE!

O. Paul Dillingham's justification is well
by the wire-workers. He calculates
upon being United States Senator, by means Of
the coalition. Whigs-old opponents of Texas
and friends Of Free Soil: is there one of you
who would sacrifice Wing, who has stood firm
from first to last against the savocracy, for Paul
the dough faced? He doubled on Texas, and
doubles now. Look out for him.

A "BoLrER," H. II. Van Amringe, a dele

It's proceedings, in the Buffalo Courier, IN linly
for the reason that the "platorm does not con

is said of the right OF man to the earth, nor OF
the prohibition of sales of the public land.

20 We learn from the Free Press that Mr..
HALE of Brandon, leading Liberty man, bolts
from the Van Buren, team. Working in such
traces is not consistent with his liberty notions.
In Massachusetts, the Wings who bolted on Tay-
lor are now boiling on Van Buren,. So says The
Atlas and other papers.

c. A wlseacre in Orleans County reports
that we were driven into the support of Taylor
to prevent the establishment of Taylor paper

Gen. Taylor from perfect conviction, arrived at
after long and careful consideration, that we
cannot in any better way labor for the success of
Wits principles and the prostraton of the sla-
vocracy. When we cannot act from our own
convictions, we are perfectly willing to stop
printing newspapers.

QF7The great question is whether Martin
Van Buren, is Hhig enough for those Clay Wings
who couldn't support Taylor it is generally
believed that Martin was NOT Wing in 1910,
that he was for Polk and Dallas in 1874, and
down to the last month claimed to be pure To-
coloco democrat; but these ugly facts prove
nothing in his case. For aught we know he may
have become Wing within the last thirty days.
