| An old Liberty friend writes as follows
MIR. THOMPSON Dear &r,-Enclosed send
yod two dollars to pay my subscription for the
current year have taken the Freeman from
Its first start, and always paid in advance until
this year. The year past have been bailding
house, and at the close of the year found my
self pretty thoroughly drained. So much for
apology. You will credit Inc as you see fit
at the advance price, or otherwise | cannot
40 without the Freeman. have deeply regretted
the unhappy controversy the past winter in the
ranks of our friends. Hope all see the necessity
OF farming their arms against the common enc
my, and exercising iorbedrlncc towards those OF
our friends who happen to think differently on
points Of minor Importance. As the time APP
proachcs for holding State and County Conven-
tions for nominating candidates, let oar friends
every where bestir themselves in season, and by
all means maintain our own Platform "Dont
gre up The Ship" If the Shareholders succeed
in passing tn" infamous Nebraska Bill, and thus
open the door for Slavery there, then must New
Eng land muster all her volunteers, and rusi
forward and take possession in the name of Goo
and LiLerty' am glad to see Massachusetts,
moving in the matter. believe that is tht
only way, and the right way, to defeat Slavery
Vermont could furnish a few recruits for such (
service, think, though the real Bone and Sinev
is, at the present time, owing to the California
emigration and other causes, rather scarce. Blu
must not be tedious.
Yours Respectfully, &c.

Yours Respectfully,
Orleans County, May, 1854.

If Mr.. Douglas Nebraska bill passes, it will
produce revolution in this section of the West.
Ii the peope do not awake now, our experiment
of free government will prove a fa ure.
The Spring is very cold and backward in this
Western W ofld. The wheat looks well, though
\ is behind the times in its growth; in some
places the farmers are confd mt of forty bushels
to the acre. J 7 Narston is about to start a
new paper at Malisol 1t is to be Democratic,
but opposed to tn" Nebraska outrage. am glad
you stand by the Pittsburgh Platform If there
is to bel great Free Party organized in the
North the materials for the band of union will
be found in our National Resolutions Then,
say, let us stand or fall by that kind Of Democra
cy which Jefferson taught and the lovers Of Lib
erty the world over, acknowledge as the Polar
Star of their political faith and hopes.
Truly Yours, MN. D.

EVERETT AND CHoATE.-The Boston papers
announce the resignation of Mr.. Everett of his
seat in the U S. Senate on account of ill-health,
and the probable appointment, by the Governor
Of Massachusetts,, of Rufus Choate to supply
his place. This, we fancy, will be no loss to
Freedom. Choate has far more independence
than Everett and snaturally far less aristocratc
and Hunkerish. Perhaps Mr.. Everett is expect
Ing to recover his health before the assembling
OF the next Wing National Convention.

On Monday, in Congress, Craige of North
Carolina called Hunt of Louisiana, IA faction
ist," which declaration the latter declared TO be
false before God and the country. The next day
Craige renewed his insult and Hunt charged him
again with falsehood. 1t is said duel will be
the result. Mr.. Hunt is a splendid orator, a
perfect gentleman, and one of the finest men in
the House. He is opposed to the repeal of the
Missouri Compact and consequently is hated BY
Douglas and his tools.

CoNsEcTIcuT SENAroRs.-The Legislature of
Connections last Friday elected Lafayette s
Foster for the long term, and Francis Gillette
for the short term, in the Senate of the United
States. Foster is regular Wing partisan of
the Webster Compromise stamp, but opposed to
the Nebraska Bill. Gillette is anold, long-tr
able, and eloquent anti-slavery man, and, on
every principle, should have been put in the
plsSs Of Foster.

eve of breaking out in Cuba among the Creole

2,5uO Acres Timber Land
TSE. SALE.

SEVERAL VALUABLE TRACTS OF
~ TIMBER LAND, comprising about $500
acres, part of which is situated on Tobyhanna
Creek, and part on Muddy Greek, within three
miles of Lehigh River, in Penn forest township,
Carbon County, one Of the great Coal Counties
of Pennsy lvaLia, can be had at bargain, if ap-
plication be made soon.
These lands arc thickly covered with the best
timber of that region. While it is believed that
$4,000 feet of lumber to the acre, can be cut from
q large portion of the land, tho balance will aver
age not much less than this figure. The kinds of
timber found on The land are Hemlock, Spruce or
White Cedar, White Oak, White Pine and
Chestnut--but principally made up of White
Pine and IIemlock.
The Tobyhanna and Muddy Creeks are large
and rapid streams, yielding a vast amount OF
water power. and are capable Of driving large
number OF saw mills. They empty into the Lehigh,
which stream, with the Lchigh Canal affoids an
outlet to the most desirable lumber markets.
! There is, too, under contemplation, a railway
leading TO the cities of New FORK and Philadelphia
which runs within eRe mile and three quarters o
the land. Through these avenues lumber can be
delivered in either of the cities named for about
! sS7 per thousand feet--thus enabling persons en-
gagged in the trade to derive greater profits than
attend investments generally.
In addition to the timber, convertible into eve
/ ry shape of lumber, there is much that will an
swer for spars of vesscls--a sort of timber tha
snip-builde,s have been obliged to purchase il

Unlike most of the lands on the Lehgh there

TO FARMERS

# TO FARMERS
Neat be your farms; Ills long conf sssed
The neaiest farmer is the BEST
Each bog and marsh industrious drain,
Nor let vile balks deform The plain,
Nor bushes on your headland grow,
For briars sloven's culture show.
Neat by your barns, your houses neat,
Your doors be clean, your court-yards swee,
No moss the shellering roof enshroud,
Nor wooden pans the window cloud;
No filthy kennels foully flow,
Nor weeds with ranking poison grow;
But shades expand and fruit trees bloom,
Aud Towering shrubs exhale perfume;
With pales your garden circle found
Defend enrich, and clean the ground;
Prize high the pleasing, useful rood,
Aud fil with vegetable good.
