The Vital Issue.

The day of trucking subser,iencc to
the schemes Of Southern politicians for
extending Slavory,is evidently over at the
North. Under the plausible pretext of
claiming non-interfercnco with the local
institutions of the Soutll-rightly found
cd only so far as relates to the right of
individual states to regulate their own
affairs strictly within their own limits
we have been called on really to aid and
abct the extension and Strengthening Of
that system which dsgraces our repub-
lie. Fortunately, the late overwhelming
Of the South has aroused the people Of
the Free States to an extent which rem
ders such subservicncc no longer posi-
bic.
That peculiar Institution must stop
where it is. 1t has gone too far, it has
endured too long, already. Where it
exists by State enactment, we cannot in-
tcrfcrc Where it docs not exist. and
where We have still power over it, we
are morally culpable, We are shamefully
degenerate and cova,dly, if We consent
to allow it to gain foothold. We must
prevent this at all hazards. it is not
only our constitutional right it is our
Christian duty Here let It's take our
stand If dissolution of tho union
comes from such course, it is not our
fault. 1t will rest On those who insist
on violating the letter and the spirit Of
the constitution. by extending and per-
pctuating tho iucalculable evil aud wrong
of Slavery.
On this point, Vermont should give
but one voice, and that neither feeble
nor divided. We should seriously de-
precato any movement having tcndcn.
cy to weaken the emphatic verdict of
last year Let all opponents of this
strengthening Administration agree
in this one thingand show by their votes
that, on this point, Vermont takes 10
step backward.
