as it was reported -" GAVE UT THEIR ORGAN
IsATIoN, and became part Of the Free De-
mocrdcy"
Eleventhly--To cap the climax, and make
all sure, free soier moved that the assem-
blage be christened "The Convention of the
Free Democracy of Vermont" and the strug-
gle was all over
We have given this relation that our rea-
ders may see the progress of affairs, step by
step the manner in which the democrats of
Vermont were sold. The whole matter was
contrived before the convention by few,
without any consultation with and without
the consent of the mass of democratic voters
Moreover, the leaders of the free soil party,
dictated every move from the beginning, and
as we shall show at another TIME, have ia
ken the whole matter into their'own hands,
giving up nothing but designing TO use the
democracy as the tools OF their triumph.
After they had formally annihilated the
democratic platform and adopted their own
cdndidateS-aiter they had dissolved our or
ganiSdtiOn, and adopted their own; after they
had condescendingly taken us in and chris
tened us-they were not then satisfied, but
were careful to take from the hands of the
democracy, as far as was possible, all inhu-
ence and power of defence, as committees
officers of the con, ention or otherwise-and
this we shall show in another article.

A California Fact.
From the Hartford Daily Times.

Truth, it is sometimes said, is stranger
than fiction. A fact connected with the
California migration-though not directly
with its gold minlng-has come to our
knowledge, which, while it wears all the
features of an invention of romance, is
nevertheless strictly true in all its parts. 1t
is the more interesting to our readers from
the circumstance that the hero of the story
went from this vicinity.
About year ago,a young man in neigh
boring town failed in his business, and after
assigning his property, his assets fell short
of his debts by about ninety thousand dol
lars. This was pretty heavy load to car
ry; but he was not altogether discouraged,
and said the time would come when he
should be able to pay off his debts to the
last cent. People of course were incredu-
lous but, strange to say, the probability
now is that his promise will be fulfilled at a
very early day.
He sailed for California to earn his living
by labor, before any news had reached
here of the wonderful gold discoveries of
that region He took out with him small
invoice of goods, and the machinery for one
or two saw mills. This cargo was wrecked
before he reached his destination; he lost
all his goods and barely escaped his life
lie sailed from the Sandwich Islands, where
he had been carried after the shipwreck,
and found himself at San Francisco with
ten dollars only left of all his property. He
Immediately opened negotiation with an
old settler for fine tract of twenty-four
square miles of the best timber land in that
vicinity, with several saw mills upon it
He finally bought it for 500, 900, ON credit
of one and two years. He was able to OBJ.
tain this credit by producing the invoices
of the goods he had shipped, though he
withheld the fact of their being wrecked
At the same time he secured the settler by
mortgaging back the property to him for
security Soon after the purchase, the gold
fever began-emigrants poured in from all
quarters, and houses and shanties could mol
be supplied as fast as they were wanted by
the new corners.
The consequence was that lumber rose
to an enormous price-several hundred pei
cent. in fact, beyond its ordinary value
and the saw mills of our penniless but en-
terprising adyenturer soon began to coli
gold for him much faster than the most ia
vored of the gold diggers could fad it. IL
three months time he had cleared in soil,
cash So, 900 towards paying off his pur
chase of SOC, 1000. With part of his earn
ings he bought the ship Huntress, and re
sold her week afterwards at clear prof

of $4,000. With another portion of il he
added to the number of his saw mills a nd
flour mills-the latter paying nearly as
round profit as the former Lumber still
maintains its extravagant price--emigrants
are flocking in thicker and faster than ever
everything in the shape of board or
single commands almost its weight in cop
per if not in gold-and our Yankee friend
at the last advices, was confident that the
profits of his business will largely increase
for many months to come
Nothing but some unforeseen contingency
can prevent him from speedily becoming
the richest man in California. He antici-
pates with pleasure returning home at an
early day, paying off his creditors, princi-
pal and interest, and having prncely for
tune to spare. Altogether it constitutes a
very rare and remarkable case of energy
and enterprise, combined with good fortune.
The foregoing facts are fully confirmed by
intelligent men who have been on the spot,
as well as by letters from various and re-
spectacle sources. This man went out to
work and carry on regular business with
out thinking or knowing anything about
gold digging; but of all the mines which
have been thus far opened in California, it
appears that he stumbled on by far tho
most productive.

tate OF prudence, to say the least, for you,
anti-slavery Wings, to pause There is no
need Of hastily committing yourselves. You
may doubt whether am one of you. Your
doubts, if any you have, are groundless
have been member of an ant-savery So
ciety fourteen years. l have ever been
known, so far as known to all, as an un-
compromising enemy to human slavery
The Declaration of Independence contains
my creed upon the subject of human rights.
From its principles have never consciously
devated. voted for Van Buren, and Adj
ans. / did it, trust, honestly too. AS
feel now, with what consideration l have
been able to bestow upon the matter,
doubt not it is my duty to vote for the Wing
Ticket.
do not wish to punish the Wings for
doing wrong once, and reward aparty which
has been Arrays wrong, wrong till all mo-
tive was taken away; reward them for a
Wholesale change, the object of which is
too apparent to admit of doubt.
The principles of men are not changed
in the mass at once. When men of par
ty, even in considerable numbers, forsake
their standard and flock to better one, l
can concede to them honesty of purpose I;
but when party in an organic form makes
its members over en- mdSSe, | suspect that
something else than principle is at work.
Truth does not work in that way. What
say you, Free Soil Liberty. Whigsl Have
| not, in giving my own sentiments and
feelings, expressed yours ? 1t is natural
that it should be SO, for your circumstan-
ces and mine have been the same. We have
had to contend with the same difficulties.
Our conscences have directed us in the
same way. 1t is natural that our present
position should be the same. If you are
satisfied that you can carry out your own
convictions of duty best by joining the new
Democratic organization, why, do so: but
do not think, because you voted for Van
Buren, and Adams last year, you are bound
to vote for Needham g. Co., next Septem-
her. The Democrats think because we
have pulled at the Free Soil rope, we are
fairly harnessed into the Democratic Team
So thinks the Courier, grown rather rabld
of late. But so far as my vote can prevent,
the Democrats shall not laugh in their sleeve,
when chuckling over victory obtained by
wing votes. A FREE SOIL WING.

Marks of a Good Working OK.

Mr.. Asa G. Sheldon, of Willlamstown.
who has great experience in cattle, particu-
larly in working oxen, and is regarded as
the best authority, gives the following
Long head, broad and oval between the
eyes; the eye full, keen, and pleasant
Such marks denote ability to receive instruc-
ton and readiness to obey. The short
faced OK starts quick at the whip, and soon
forgets it, The black-eyed OK is inclined
to run away. An OK with very large horns
near the head is apt to be,lazy, and he can
not endure heat well.
Forward legs straight; toes straight for
ward hoof broad, not peaked the distance
short between the ankle and knee. These
properties enable an OK TO travel on pave
ment and hard ground. If the OK toes out,
the strain comes on the inside claw, and
when travelling on a hard road, he will be
lame at the joint between the hoof aud the
hair. When the toes turn out the knees
bend in. An OK with crooked knees is apt
to become lame by holding heavy loads down
hill.
Breast full; straight on the back; round
ribs, projecting out as wide as the hip
bones. These are indications of strength
and good constitution.-Monthiy Visitor
