Early Anti-Slavery Legislation in
Vermont.

The following act passed by the Legis-
laturc of Vermont at their session in De-
tobet 1856, will show the position, which
this State has occupied, in relation to
Slavery, from the commencement of its
existence. Its design is not to abolish
that institution; for it never existed in
the State. The first constitution, uudcr
which the government was organized, in
March l77S, had effectually prohibited
it, Slavery existing in all the ucghbor,
ing States, some of the immigrants
brought their slaves with them. aud re-.
tanned them in service, although free {:
and as late as the first United States
census, which wa. taken in this State in
1871, after its admission into the Union,
seventeen persons were sci down as
slaves. Tho object Of the statute. as will
be seen 10y the preamble, was to prevent
the negroes who had been omancp ated
under our Contitution, from being re.
moved aud sold in States where Slave.

GEN. SCoTT's OPINIoN.-A Wash.
ington correspondent of the Charleston
Mercury, and a great lover of Gen.
Scott, gives the old hero's opinion of
the war, as follows:
lie SAYS the allies committed a great
biupder in delaying the attack upon
Sebastopol as long as they did ; that
Immediately after the raising of the
siege of Silistria they should have at
tackled Sabastopol, at which time there
was comparatively small force in the
Crimea ; that the allies cannot take
SebastOpol unless they receive rein
forcements, giving them a superiority
of force to the extent Of from thirty to
fifty per cent; that the Russian regular
soldiers are the best troops in the world
for defence they never fly, but perish
unless ordered to retreat. He thinks
the allies labor under a great disad-
vantage in having two commanding
Generals that the road to victory is
through unity of design. The infer
ence / would draw from Gen. SCOTS
ideas is, that Sebastopol will not be
taken. The General said that the
allies could not re>embark now without
immense loss of men, and all the mas
terials of war in camp, except the
weapons in their hands.

A sound discrimination has taught us
that their reputation is not ephemcral,
