The gigantic fraud, the outrageous act
committed be the slave power; seemed to a.
rouse in Vermonters keen sense of wrong
and OF insult, and awakened the most seri-
Gus apprehensions for the security OF our
future liberties. Are those feelings abated,
those impulses smolhered Can Vermont
ers tamely witness the lawless invasion Of
Kansas by armed marauders, and see the
peaceful settlers who went from our own
borders subjugnted, under the sway of the
Infatuated mob, where the bowie knife and
rifle have ascendlncy over the ballot box

alric sentiments, the noble impulses which
constitute the true glory of freemen, laid
aside? The sons Of Vermont shed the first
bloc in the American Revolution, and they
were the last to fur their banners in that
glorious struggle for liberty. Does the deep
love of liberty animate them still Vermont

a time when freeinen we're called upon to
act 10 defence OF their rights and liberties, -
SOW is that time. On the movement now
begun may depend the very existence of our
government. The encroachments OF the
slave power have become so enormous, ana
lis progress so rapid, that it is now a con
hict for the freedom OF the citizen, rather
than the emancipation of the slave. II tho
freemen do not now arise IN their strength,
and shake of the incubus which is strang-
ling and crushing them, 1t may soon be too
late. A nation incumbefed with slavery is
surrounded with perls. Political insecure

Memory.

Say, in the introduction to his Gel

tells us that he studied all the books
he could find on the subjects which
he intended to write-and then took
time TO forget what he had read, be-
fore beginning to write. Do we thor

has retailed the same learning or the

Probably everybody has enough Of

Is want of interest and attention, not

How unfortunate we should be to

Some men are thus unfortunate. and
are the poorest thinkers and most in

sometimes think that excess of mem

That excess occasions intellectual in

Some men acquire aud retain twen-

been distinguished for great power
