We frequently see articles in our exchanges
from the free states, under the above significant
captions which require passing notice How
much is meant by these articles or whether they
are thrown out feelers for the purpose of ascer
tanning what the public sentiment is, at the pres
ent time, upon the union of the old Democratic
party with the Free Soil party, we are not able
to say. The election of Mr.. Chase of Ohio to
the Senate of the United States, is considered
as an omen or the ultimate union of these par
tics in the free states And the fact of changes
being made in some of the journals, has been
considered as another evidence of disposition
to fraternlze. Our neighbor Of the Patriot has
copied largely from these indications from sew
eral Democratic papers, in the Tree states, in his
last No. II these indications are designed as
advances to the Free Soil party, and for the
purpose of drawing out their views upon union,
it is time that the Free Soil press Should define
its position, and remove every cause OF suspl-
cion which would arise from a silence on the
part of the Free Soil presses.
OF the election Of Mr.. Chase to the Sem
ate, we have very little to say only to give our
unqualified appreciation of his election. IT is
well known, especially to those who belonged
to the Liberty Party, that Mr.. Chase has for
years had his whole soul engaged in the contest
against the damning system of American Sla-
very-and that he was one of the mighty men
who contributed largely in bringing out the Buff
falo platform.
The strength of parties in Ohio were such,
that Tho's Ewing, the Taylor candidate, must be
elected, or Nj, Chase; Or no election at all be
made-.M Allen, the then incumbent, having lost
the confidence of the people by his pro-savery
course in the Senate Upon this subject the

which coercing labor and taking away its
proper stimulus. makes it shiitess and thrift

without motive or tendency to improvement

breadl-Can that system help him who re
lies upon it, which tends to his own mac
ton from want of motive to effort, and
which for the security of slavery by the de-
graduation of the slave, makes even the most
needful industry disreputable except sor

OF honor to idenessl-Can that system be
traught with blessings, or be less than

while it abridges industry and her rich re-
wards, not ess abridges mind, the richest

ducation so difficult as to be next to lmpos-
slble and practically hopeless (which, by
the mighty impotence of idIeness and Igno-
rance, seals up vast resources OF nature,
stlnts the useful and the liberal arts, looks
up navigation and commerce with the rigor
OF ceaseleSs blockade, and thus brands its
own forehead with the deep impress of sin,
while pertinaciously unconscious Of the
guilt? Can that system ask the smile of
Heaven OF man, which most unkindly
lrowns onthe very earth God made good
Tor man THAT system which, in addition
to the oths Evil it does, and the other good
it both hiSers and destrys, settles down on
a soil made exuberant by ages of fertllza-
ton, and with rapid zeal converts it to
desolate waste, compelling its owner to for
sake it for his lie, though, before slavery
had wrought il sterile, it bloomed and TEEN
ed with the assurance of perpetual plenty ?
Can that fulfill the law of God and claim
the reward of well.doing, which, abrogating
chastity in the slave, invites impurity in the
master, and records the fact in the faces of
so many of his own progeny doomed for the
mothers skin to slavery in all their genera
tions! Can that be Heavens gift and
mans gain, which not only hipders proper
ty, but renders every species Of it insecure b?
which pers life, and most breeds danger
where safety is most coveted (which,
when it lies down to sleep on its lordly

the one part armed and the other weapon

The New Cabinet,

To the country, at large, quite proportion of
the recently appointed Cabinet are but little
known. Having taken considerable pains to as
certain the character and standing of the mem
bers of this Cabinet, to whom we alude, we will
briefly state the result of our enquiries:
GEoReE w. CRAwFoRD of Georgia, Sec Of
War, nephew of the late, well known William
H. Crawford, is a lawyer by profession, if)y-two
years of age, of a good constitution and strong,
practical mind. Formerly strenuous States
rights man, and supporter of the Troupe party
in his state, he has lattery been ranked among
the Wings, and by them elected Governor of
Georgia.
WIN. B. PRESTON of Virginia, Sec. of the
Navy though normally of the legal profession,
is, we should presume, one of the regularly bred
Statesmen of the modern Virginia School of po-
litical transcendentalism, which was founded by
such men as Philip P. Barbour, who thought to
improve on the beautiful principles and lucid op-
positions of Jefferson and Madison. Mr.. Pres
ton has recently been in Congress, and required
some reputation as an orator.
WIN. MEREDITH of Philadelphia, Sec. of the
Treasury, is also lawyer-a very able one 1t is
said, but little known for aught he has done out
of his profession. He is not much of parti-
san, but man Of superior Requirements in law,
literature and political economy. He has held
no higher Office than U. S. District Attorney,
member of the Legislature, and of a Convention
to form State Constitution.

10 the Patrons Of the Green Noun.
tain Freemen.

1t Will be seen by the additional name that
appears IN the editorial heading of our present
number that we have made a new arrangement
for the future publication of the Freeman. Hav-
ing assured our readers in the outset that wa
would spare no pains or expense in tr,nnr to
make the Freeman, not only the best political
but the best family piper in the State, and soon
finding that the duties Of attending to the Fl.
nanclal management of the establishment, and
giving that attention to the political department
that was necessary, to make the Freeman what
1t should be, the exponent of the principles of
the Free Soil party in the State, was tax upon
us that we were not able to discharge with a
strict regard for our health, we entered INTO A
negotiation with D. P. THOMPSON, ESQ.,, of this
village, to assist US in the miscellaneous depart
ment' And the negotiation has resulted we
trust, satisfactorily to our readers, in the dispo.
sal to Judge Thompson of one half of our es-
Enlistment, and making him partner in the
concern.
Although we are happy to know that Judge
Thompson's sentiments are no less decided than
our own on all subjects involving the great issue
which is now before the country, and that he
endorses fully the principles laid down in the
Buffalo platform, yet it has been thought to be
more consonant to his and our peculiar tastes
and capacities, that the labors OF the editorshlp
should be divided in the same manner that we
contemplated in our negotiations.
Judge Thompson is known, in and out of the
State, as an able writer and scholar, and it
would be superAuous in us to pronounce his
merits. He will hereafter take charge of the
miscellaneous department, and assist in all mat
tiers of general interest disconnected with poll
