cognise the Mass Convention of July 18th,
but was composed of its enemies, and of
friends of the present Slayocratic administra-

VOTES VOTES!
How will you have them

Orders for state, congressional, county and
town tickets will be supplied to orde. at the
Waterman Office. Order enough, and early,
and specify the name desired. The regular
tickets have been nominated and will be sup
ported by Wings who prefer their own name,
and by Democrats and Free Democrats who
prefer to call themselves Republicans; and
so far as we know, the candidates are each
and all bound to cooperate for the defence
of freedom and against all dough-faces of
whatever name. The tickets, therefore, may
bear one name with as much propriety as
the o,her-or both. Suit yourselves, gentle

gentleman Of the Patriot clique has offered
that Jackman shall decline and Wood shall
be put in his place, in exchange for free
democratic votes for the administration tick
ct Such is the rottenuess-sucht the doub-
le dealing such the mean rascality of the
Patriot clique. We learn that they are indig
nantly spurned by both Boutwell, and Wood,
and will utterly be foiled-leaving the
friends Of the administration to fight their
own battles at their own risk and charges.-

I he Wing County Convention.

We cheerfully comply with the request
10 publish the proceedings, giving the
coloring to the matter which the originators
of the Convention desire. There is another
view, however, which It is our duty to pre-
sent. The names of George w. Collamer,
Charles Lyman and +. p. Walton, Jr. APP
pear in the proceedings. Mr.. Col'amer con-
Cured in the proprieiy Of having Wing
Cousty Committee, but he did not think II
best to nominate ticket. Mr.. Lyman was
drawn out by compliment Of Mr.. Vail to
llKsRY CLAY, and spoke only to that point.
T.. p. Walton Jr. declined to act in the Con-
ven,ion, and spoke in response to call, de-
precating any division of the Wing strength
of the county, as only tending 10 aid the
friends of the present slavocratic administra-
ton, and urging that good policy and nteg-
ri,y to the Platform of the Wing State Con-
vention required the Wings of the county to
support the 5th of August ticket. The reso-
sort, las such, all right: but they do mol
come up 10 the mark of the Wing resolutions
adopted at Rutland on the 9Th Of June, and
we do moi like that. The maintaining of a
Wing organization in the county, through a
county committee, is well in view Of possible
exigencies in the future but we would pre-.
fer to do this by having the last years com.
mittee hold over, inasmuch as il was not re
appointed las it ought to have BEEN on the
9Th. On the whole we do not regret the
Convention. Nine persons only voted fol
the resolutions. at least three Of whom dis
sent from the nomination of ticket, and the
whole number who took part in the proceed
ings was probably less than dozen. The
whole number present, including spectators
Pierce men, and Wings who did not take any
part, was forty-two. In a word, the Con
vention demonstrated that the movement wa,
not in accordance with the views of III,
Wings Of the county, and this inference il
confirmed by the destinations annexed
Probably we shall have more still. So far a
Wings were concerned in originating thi
meeting, we learn that they were actuated B.
desire to preserve whig organization, an
that the destinations do not surprize them !
but another class of men aimed surely to des
troy the wing party by means Of convention
called IN It's name. The Patriot cliqu
did all they could to get it up-distribute,
the call through the county-and evidentI,
hoped that they could divide and distract tn
Wings, and thus secure the election of tn
administration ticket. Last year Eastma
g. Co. tempted Wings to bolt the REGULAR
nominated Wing Ticket, and 60 into coal
ton with the Patriot clique against the lie
uor law. This year Eastman g. Co. be
Wings to bolt the Anti Nebraska ticket, an
stand out on a stiff Wing organization
Last year Eastman g. Co. engaged locofoc
favors for Wings, if they would suppor
the isen on the run and locofoco ticke
whose elections were thea in danger Thi
year, some promise that Mr. Jackmsn shal
decline, a. Col. Boutwell, be pot on the demo
cratic ticket. 10 exchange for Wing vote

Resolutions of the Sd District
Convention.

Resolucd, list, That the Freemen of the
Third Congressional District, IN Convention
assembled, express earnestly their approba
ton of the conduct of the Hon. Alvah Sa-
bin their Representative in Congress. The
frmness and steadlness which he showed du-
ring the trying scenes and labors of the last
session of Congress, IN unfolding such
measures as looked 10 the welfare Of the
whole nation, to the rights ofthe Free States
and of all men in them,-to the advancement
of industry, honesty, justice, truth and liberty
throughout all our borders-and in giving
the weight of his personal character and of
his vote, against measures of an opposite
kind, and especially against the great and
wicked wrongs embraced in the Kansas and
Nebraska Bill, deserve our hearty thanks
though no more than we had right to ey
pect and did expect from him.
Resolved, I'd, That Vermont has had no
fears, not for moment, that any one of her
delegation would be tempted to swerve from
the true path, by allurements, or by Threats
from any quarter. She knew the men of
her choice and trusted them, and they have
justified her confidence.
Resolved, 3D. That lovers Of Freedom and
of the spread of her institutions, haters of
Slavery and oil It's spread into territories sa-
credly pledged to freedom forever, we give
thanks to all men in Congress, from the
South as well as from the North, from the
East as well as from the West, who boldly
withstood, to their utmost, the breaking
DOWN of the great barrier set up against
slavery extension by the Missouri Compro-
mise Act of 1890.
RESOLVED, Ith, That the same fundamental
principles Of political action are IN our view
embodied in the resolutions passed by the
Wing State Convention held in Rutland,
June 9TH, 1854, and by the Mass Conyen-
ton at Montpelier, July 18th, 1854. We
view them not as conflicting, but as substaA-
tally accordant, and in conformity to then,
we shall vote for the Hon. Alyah Sabin, L.
represent Us in the next Congress as a tar
and true exponent Of them on our part be
