VERMONT.

We have copied into our paper to-day that portion
# the Message of the Governor of Vermont which

ar Of that State. We leave this document with our
r,ders-fur,her comment upon it is unnecessary.
By the way. the Raleigh Register is silent in rela
dOu to this message; and the Star, having given an
incorrect statement of its substance, and having been
reminded of it and appealed to on the subject, is also
SILENT Are those papers determined to cover up,
Systematically and as matter of Whig policy, the
sentiments and conduct of the Abolition Wings in
the free States 1t would seem so. The good feel
iup existing between IS the allies North and South,
must not be disturbed in the. language of the Gull
nrd Wings, an eye must be had, not only to South
ern rights but to Northern interests" Vermont al
ready gets handsome protection for her wool by
he present Tariff; the Star is anxious to increase the
ates Of the Tariff, and thereby add to the burdens on
the planting interests, for the benefit of Northern
interests and now let US ask how much more the
Star would give! Would the Editor and the Gull

Is that to be the game! Are the interests and rights
Of the saveholding States to be bargained away for

The Governor of Vermont, it will be seen, speaks
Of a communication from North Carolina, which he
deemed TOO " disrespectful " to be laid before the
Assembly. He doubtless refers to the following Re-
solution, which was adopted unanimously by our las,
legislature. 1t was drawn up by the lamented DR..
Cameron, the Senator from Cumberland, and was
passed as it came from his pen:

1.-THE Mum Came"

The Bee is unrelenting and uncompromising, in
its expositions, drawn from political facts, which
must be clearly observant to the eyes of all un-
prejudiced persons. We find the following sharp
cuts in that paper of the 4th:
SIN the present canvass Locofocoism is try
ing the virtue of taciturnity. Most of its Can
dldates are dumb-mute as stock-fsh-voice-
less and silent as Harpocrates himself. IF they
have opinions, they seem to think that their
constituents have no right to them-that the
people are a pack of minnies, to be treated
with lordly inditference-that they are blind
partizsn Ms who sustain them because they are
political nominees, without respect to their
sentiments and principles. None of the Lo-
cofoco Candidates have opened their mouths.
X x * Ever since the famous resolutions of
the 3Oth November, 1850, in which Gen. Downs
was treated with whitening contempt, and
Messrs. Soule, Lasere, Harnanson and Morse,
were applauded to the very echo that shall APP
plaud again, Locofocoism thinks that plat
forms are slippery things to stand upou, and
expose those who essay to mount them, to an
extremely dangerous fall.
We think, however, that the Locofocos mis-
calculate the patience of their party. 1t is not
altogether composed of stocks and stones.
There are men in it, who will not sustain a
candidate who sets them at defiance, and whose
actions belle the doctrine that the representa-
is but the servant of the people. The re-
suit of the present canvass, we opine, Will
teach the Locofoco party a lesson they sadly
need-that ~"honesty is the best policy" that it
is impossible to pursue 4 game Of d~uplicity

1,et rs strike for the Union!

The nature oftle nominations made through
out the State-the stronghold which the Wing
have and are still fastening upon the affections
of the people, through the consistency of thel
principles; but above all, the startling eviden
ces adduced, that through them the great Uni
on victories have of late been accomplished
that through them, South Carolina is recedinE
from her dangerous position-all warrant VI
in believing that the next session of the LIE
gislature, will be largely Wing, when, among
the other beneficial measures the people of the
State will have cause to applaud, not the least
will be that of the election of an US. Senator
to replace Mr.. Downs.
That the doctrine of P. SoULE will get its
death-blow at the ensuing election, we have not
a particle of doubt. 1t is not enough for the
people to know, that a candidate for the Le-
gislature, has not publicly proclaimed himself
a States Rights Man, or a friend of Louisi-
ana's Senator, the vaccilating, revolutionary and
| illustrious defamer Of our present President
but they have the prudence and the foresight
to come to this conclusion, that whenever they
see a violent man, an oyerbearing man, vain
or ~presumptuous man, a man OF limited educa-
ton, and ideas still less limited, who boldly
proclaims himself an unyielding Democrat,
they set him down, Cor ought to- as one to be
feared, and, in these dangerous times, not the
part of wisdom to trust him among sublimer
i~ntellects of the same clan, who have madly
vomitted forth their suicidal theories of Seces-
sion and Disunion. "A

full excitement relative to the dismemberment
of our glorious Union. But, thanks to the
Press and the intelligence of our people, they
have daily information of political matters,
and are capable of deciding for themselves.
The evil and the sin, then, as . right, should
fall upon the Party in which it originated: and
we have but a very poor estimate Of the sense
of justice, aud feelings of patriotism predomi-
mating among the yeomanry of this State, if
they do not place it there on the Sd of Noyem-
Der. For the Parish of Iberville, we can unhesi-
speak. We confidently assert that the
Union men of this State will have no cause to
of the choice which will be made in |
this Parish. The names of JOHNSTON and BA-
BIN will go through the polls triumphantly; and
Wing principles, the local and general in
terests of our people, and for the perpetuity of
the Union, they will, side by side with BABAuvE
and CLARK, our Senators, ever be found true,
steadfast and unyielding.

Mi. Upton at Baton Rouge.

We received a letter from a gentleman last
week, from Baton Rouge, giving an recount OF
sile Union Meeting held there on the evening
Of the s0th. As it was received too late for
last weeks paper, we will make few extracts
for this number. OF Mr.. UPToN's success on
this occasion the writer says:
"For ability, power of oratory, and eloquence
Of appeal to the patriotism of the people, he
proved himself to be more than equal to the
position in which he has been placed by his fell
low citizens, and to the task he has undertaken
to perform. If he has but the time to 60 over
the District, and place hisviews and sentiments
properly before the people, in the heart-stirring
appeals, which he is capable of making. his
success is certain. x x X
"He has certainly made a great impression
here; and if he succeeds in getting over the
District, he will certainly beat Penn-and this
too by a very handsome majority. 1t will
certainly be a noble victory for the great Uni
on party; and / assure you, you need not be sur-
prised at such a result; for wherever Mr.. Up.
ton goes, he carries with him hosts of friends,
and gains over from the ranks of the opposi-
ton, all who are devoted to the GREAT UNIoN
CAUSE.
"To-day, Mr.. Upton speaks at the Court
House in West Baton Rouge. He viii have
a large meeting there too, asathe Court is in
session, and notice of the meeting has been
widely circulated. Many too, will 60 from the
town, there to hear him again. On Monday,
he speaks again in this Parish, at the barbecue
at the forks; AND from thence leaves for the
Feliciiaanas, Point Conpee and the upper Parish
es, where his appointments are already made.
He will get into the sPine Woods" Parishes,
about the oath Of this notwithstanding the
last days of the canvass to them. He has an
hercnlean task before him; but seems deter.
mined to perform it."
