at the time to satisfy the Old Liners that he was
a true blue Democrat. In one of his letters he
says, am as good a Democrat as erer ,cds and
intend 10 support Democratic men and Measures
This was after he had received the nomination
from the Free Soilers ; and the Old Line folks
becoming somewhat jealous of HIM. one of them
wrote him on the subject and receive two an
swers-- and at the same time he was under a
written pledge to the Free soil folks. 1t is well
known here that he got his election by playing
double game but mind We. he did not pull
the wool over our eyes, as you may remember
we throwed the whole Democratic vote for anoth-
er person.

That is to the point, and we rather think it is
crough. iciibom the Craltsbury resolution. Now,
il the Patriot chooses, we are perfectly willing
t. accept its amendment albeit we don't believe
one word of it ever was heard Of by the Con-
venton which adopted the resolution. Bot lc
the Patriot take all the rope It wants we give
in: what then? Simply this both of the can
didates Of the locofoco party are posted as
roeuos by old liners Of Orleans Reifed by the
spl ciic charges of an Old Line Democrat" OF
Greensboro, and Robinson by the resolution Of
the old line Convention at Critsbury. This is
punching right and lefi, and with vengeance,
INTO the bargain. We hope the Patriot is per-
lectly satisfied

The last B anton POST in an article on the
past and present position of G.. * Villains, the
whg nominee for Governor, max the following
statement:
And now, we understand, he says he shall
90 for Daniel Webster, ompromise, Fugitive
Slave Law and all, provided W ebster is the can.
dldate OF ms party, because politician can do
no other way than 60 with hls party"
This is 50 different from what the supporters
Of Gov Williams on this side of the mountain
claim TO be his sentiments thlt truth and justice,
we should think, would require that the stale
ment, # erroneous, should be explicitly denied,
and If true, 10 be more definitely made known to
the pu5lc.-G. W. freemaR
he facts in the case are these: Judge VIII
lams and several other gentlemen were seated
IN the portco of Pr It Fosters Hotel, in Rut-
land, discussing political matters. The question
came up about the likelihood Of Daniel Webster
hong iha Wing nominee for Precedent The
question was put TO Judge Williams would he
support him If he was put up and his answer
was 60 shall vote for the nominee OF my party"
GIVING the questoncr plainly To understand that
he should vote Tor Daniel Webster II he was the
nominee OF his party. We had these facts from
gentleman who was present and ON whose YER
achy we place the utmost reliance Judge VII
llams tcU vote for Daniel Webster, If he is the
candidate, mark that brandon Post.
The editor Of the Brandon Post noio says that
somebody told him, that he heard Judge vii
lams tell somebody else, that he Judge WI
hams) should pote for the NOMINEE Of his pariy-
and out of this simple fragment the editor of the
Brandon Post eked out the web which the Green
Mountain Freeman coped-thus:
lie Judge Williamsl says, lac shall 20 for
Daniel Webster, Compromise, Fugitive Stare
L1tc and al, provided W ebster Is the candidate
Of his party, because politician can DO no other
way than 20 with his party"
Now we have no doubt that Judge Williams
will support Daniel Webster for President. e
Daniel Webster Is the candidate of the Uhig
party. So shall we, in all probability With
that mos; potent u for proviso, we think it
would be quite safe to make such pledge. But
We are quite sure that even in the event of that If
being removed, neither Judge Williams, nor any
other Wing. Will be required to Ego for the Com
promise, Fugitive Slave Law and all" Whoev-
er the u hig candidate is, he must adopt Hing
principles. lie must repudiate the One Man
power; he must be content to be an honest re-
publican President, and not King Veto; he must
respect the independence Of Congress; he must
permit the People, through their representatives,
to settle all questions of domestic policy in their
own way, within the pale Of the Constitution

deny the charge, point blank. # is entirely false

it for the present to say that the old line resolu-

were published in the Irasburgh Record, at the
requested Of old liners and for certain reasons
they were published Gas the Record said at the
time, )itrally We know the editors of the Re
cord too well to believe that they would change
the resolutions and we venture TO say, that any
man, Of any party, who is throughly acquainted
with John A. and Leonard B.Janason will acquic
them Of any such suspicion. Now, then, we
have only to say that we copied the resolution
exactly as it was published in the Record by re-
quest Of old liners. We punched" no words

peared evident to us that 1t pointed at T. p. Red

and therefore, he must yield to the people them
selves the utmost freedom of opinion upon all
these matters. The Uhig party must insist up
on all that or yield one of It's most important dis
tnctve principles Daniel Webster must sub
scribe to all that, or he never will be The Hhig
candidate. We repeat, then, that to support the
Wing candidate, whoever he is, implies not The
slightest sacrifice Of opinion or principle upon The
Compromise, the Fugiiire Stare .4oi, or any other
question Of domestic policy. And in that iact-or
rather in the adoption of the genuine cousttu-
tional principle, from which it lows-is evinced
the superior excellence of the Wing party as
national party. 1t is the party Of free thought
and free discussion; of free voting of free legis-
lators, independent of Executive dictaton and
responsible only to the people, in word, II is
THE PARTY OF FREEDOM. The Post,
then, travelled beyond tie record. when it charg
ed Governor Williams rs plcdging himself to
" 60 for the Compromise, Fugitive Slave Law and

mistake i'm this matter, had it recalled to mind

find that the debt of the Company has been re-

the equipments of the road have been much more
than doubled, requiring an expenditure exceed

what It was for the preceding year. Instead OF
realizing assets at present rates, TO be applied to
the debt, the Treasurer recommends the issue Of
