The Christian Anti Slavery Con-
venSion.

We publish this week, with much gFanfca d
tion. the very numeroasy signed call iroWi Chris
uans and CHRISTIAN maIsters, of all denom ha-
lions. in almost ell parts OF the State, tor an An
ii Slavery Convention, at West Randolph, on
the Goth Of May, Aud is it not time such Con-
ventions were hed2 All human laws say Black
stone. Paley and other jurlsts and moral phioSo-
phers. has, or should have, its foundation In the
law of God; and we believe it to be no less
true that all political action should be based on
sound and correct moral principles. Aud when
bnth these posltions are disputed and set at
naught BY uul national law makers, and leading
politicians, in denying the paramount obiiga-
tions Of the higher law, and urging the suprem'
scv of the lower-iu assuming the province of
the preacher and morahst, and in giving us vlr-
tually to understand that, in these respects, we
have, all our days, been listening to moral here
sizes, which are mlschievous and delusive, is 1t
not time that Christians, and Christian ministers,
were beginning 10 reasert and defend the doc
trines they have SO long taught us3 And II
these new and strange doctrines are thought to
proceed from particular source from the III
fuence Of a particular institution, is it not time
that that source or institution we're examined by
the Christian world, and their protest entered
against it, andas far as may be, check put up
on the further spread Of its Perverting infu-
ences? For ourseIf, we have often wondered
our Christian teachers of the North have SUM
bered SO long in this matter; and we repeat,
that we are cheered with the prospect that they
are at length so generally aroused, in this State
at least, to a sense Of the necessity OF definite
and united action on the subject and, If the
numbers, responsibility and standing, of the
signers of this call, are at all significant of re-
suits, the Convention will be enc # the most
memorable ever held in Vermont, Heaven
grant it, and may the voice they shall send forth
be such as shall tell on the public mind.

GREAT EXCITEMENT IN GRAYsoN Co. ;,
Wa Court Dispersed by a MJb.-Some
time ago, Mr.. Bacon, Methodist Minister,
was violently assaulted in the county of
Grayson, Virginia.
1t was aIIedged that he had stirred up
the negroes to rebellion. 'Fhe charge, all
sober minded men knew TO be false, as all
shareholders would be ready to admit; for
instructions are not created, and could not
be started by any such iustrumentaIity.
Ofths opinion was Cornut, Shareholder,
but an emancipationist, and he said So
The Lynchers, in secret inquistion hearing
of his speech, resolved to punish him
They gathered round him in force, when
Cornut quietly dut very firmly declared to
them his opinion. He was then most bru-
tally logged aud tarred and feathered.
Cornut, standing his ground, instituted
legal proceedings against the Lynchers-
They called together the inquisition. That
body notified Cornut's lawyers and the
court, that if the former prosecuted. or the
latter tried the case, both should have a
coat of tar and feathers This notification
was given in writing, and in official form.
The court did not heed the threats of the
Lynchers, and met at the appointed time
The lawyers were all present, TOO. And
it was known that Cornut's case would be-
tried when it was reached on the docket
The Lynchers thsreuoou appeared, fully

The Tribune sometimes snubs its Wing
friends at the South after fashion which,
however impairment it may seem Ia them,
is at least amusing to the spectators Here
is little stated preaching which we
hope Is not wholly above the comprehension
OF those to whom it is addressed
That Law the Fugitive Slave Law1 is
very obnoxious in the Free States wherever
1t is brought home to the peoples apprehen.
slons and consciences, yet we have little hope
OF seeing 1t repealed. You may catch two
or three dozen negroes year under this,
and our merchants and politicians who ex-
pect TO make something out OF you will at.

all my eye.') Our Marshals and Judges
will OF course conform to it and obey it so
long astis law. You can probably force
through the Wing National Convention
you certainly can through the other--a re.
solve implying acqulescence IN aud support

you that is the practical question. Do
you fancy that the great body Of our North
ern People will ever really and heartily ry
10 help you catch your runaway negroes
II you do, you are jolly green, that's all. We
tell you frankly that zoe won t, and Won rail
al us therefor; but there are thousands all
around us who detest slave CATCHING as
heartily as we do, and will take precious

IN slavery any more than they do. You

several States, but we do claim for it constitu-
tlonal power perpetually to prohibit the intro
ductlon oil Slavery into territory now tree, and
abolish 1t i wherever under the jurisdiction OF
Congress- it exits.
H sotved, That this power ought Immediately
TO be exercised in prohibiting the introduction
and existence OF Slavery in New Mexico and
California. in abolIshing Slavery and the slave
trade in the District of Columbia, on the high
seas, and wherever else, under the Constitution
it can be reached.
ResOivcd, That no more slave States should
be ADMITTED into the federal Union.
Resolvsd, That the government ought to re-
turn to It's ancient policy, not to extend, nation
alize, or encourage, but to limit, localize, and
discourage slavery.
ResOlued, That we demand for the people a
cheaper system of hostages, a retrenchment OF
the expenses and patronage Of the federal gov
eminent the abolition of all unnecessary Offices
ard salaries, and the election of postnasters and
other civil officers in the service of the govern
nent, so far as that may be practicable, by the
people.
ReSoLye6, That we are opposed to land mon
opoly, and believe that the Public Lands should
be granted to actual settlers, in limited quaint.
ties at the cost of survey and transfer.
ReSolUed, That the education Of the children
of the state is matter Of public concern, which
he State ought to care for, and the property OF
the State to pay for.
ReSolved, That we consider that the issues
which formerly divided the Democratic and
Wing parties in relation to a United Stltes
Bank, Sub Treasury, and Distribution of the
Proceeds Of The Public Lands, have been set
tied, and that we are not disposed, in the present
position OF the political affairs Of the nation, to
countenance their revival, whatever may have
been our individual opinions heretofore on those
subjects.
RESOLVED, That we can support no man as q
candidate for State or National officers, who
does not sanction the principles embodied IN the
foregoing resolutions.
RESOLVED, Thst we discover in the acts of the
present Administration no indications of friend
ship to The cause Of freedom.
| Resolved That we will adhere firmly to the
principles here proclaimed, regardless of the
indignant frowns" of saveholding executive
and unawed by the fear of being disturbed in
tile defence of the fundamental doctrines OF Re-
publican freedom
After the resolutions were read, the question
was taken on approving them, and decided
unanimously and enthusiastically in the afirma.
tive. On motion of L. E. Chiuenden, Esq /
was then voedto adjourn fifteen minutes in or
der to reassemble with the members of the Dem
ocratic Convention, who having unanimously
approved Of the above resolutions, reported tc
them by their Committee, were DESTROYS of unit
