There was another very full market yesterday at

COMMON quality Of Beeves sold lower than tho
week before, while in first quality there was bet
ter chance for the seller than last "Wednesday,
though noihmg like the price Of former weeks was
realized Much the largest number Of Bullocks
sold were taken at prices equal only to about ~
cents pound for the beef Of good fair market
quality. Some Of the very best animals sold for
$3.50 head, or II cents pound, which would
have brought s16O two weeks ago. The falling of
in price is owing to the facilities Of getting cattle
over the railroads since the snow has gone of.
We do not anticipate as high prices agaio this
Spring as have prevailed during the Winter.

Kansas in Congress.

By reference to what has been published of the
in Congress, in regard to the Kansas
mocksry, it will be seen that The fact has been
at last shown, that the territorial laws and gov
eminent which the Black Democracy have tried
to dereive and force upon the people, are but
brutal mockcry of Republican instit utions.
White6eld has been refused his seat in the
House, \ has Gov. Reeder former because
not elected by citizens of Kansas, but Of Mis-
souri,, and that Missouri has already her full
complement of representatives; the latter be-
cause not elected under Legally holden cleo
tion-and the matter has been referred to the
people of the territory.
1t will be seen by our Congressional reports
what bills have been passed, and how they now
stand.

BlacIxguard.

It is alarming to every lover of morality and
dccency to note the increasing prevalence Of
blackguardism among those whose position
ought to entitle them to respect. That and that
only is tho warfare and argument of the Black
Democracy. At their State Convention here on
the 25th ult., the proceedings were most dis
gusting to men of refinement and sense. The
coarsest, vilest billingssate was spit out, and
from the mouths Of those whose spirits were
keyed up by third too many glasses of bad
drink, and who boldly asserted that had they an
| opportunity to vote to extend Slavery, they
should do So" Col Fremont, whom everybody
knows is entitled to- and has had, the praise Of
the country uni ersally until his nomination for
the Presidency. was accused of tho basest mis-
demeanors-all without the least show of foun-
dation, and FOR no other purpose thln to tickle
the over-hcatcd heads Of rum and political pros
tilutes. The organ of this party in this State
has taken delight in loading his columns. week
after week with the basast fabrications, coined
from the fancy steam Of bad brandy, and al
though repeatedly proved to his face, still signs
his advertisements Its, "-(" let this stand, y
from week to week, with no regard to principle
or deccncy. His sesaarka upon ourself are Of
no account They are personal and cannot
possibly affect the great principles for which
the people are contendng-and do not merely
affect us in the least, Has report of the Rcpub-
lican meeting at Mortified was not sufficient
On the %, ut another meeting Of tho Mortified
and Montpelier Fremont Clubs at Mortified, the
Hon. Postmaster at that pllce rose in his wagon
badly supported by d:ink, upon the close Of
Azel Spaldins's remarks, and proposed L" three
cheers for Azel Spalding, the CUTS Of all CUTS. u
This is supposed TO be the definition of Black
Democracy and We cannot guard too strongly
against running into the evil of retort. Leave
it to their undisputed possession. Deal with
truth, with facts, and at least use moral words
in argument, and principle in conviction.
Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1856-08-07

at an early period, Slavery now would have been
merely nominal, and our national escutcheon,
relieved from its foul blot
have said that the early AbolitiOnists were
denounced as enthusiasts and agtators. John
Quincy Adams was denounced as an agitatOr,
for defending the right of petition in the Hail
of Congress was arraigned at the Bar of the
House, and tried as an ogitator. Agitation,
discussion, and examination are the agents, the
instruments for carrying forward all reforms
Agitation is as necessary to purify the political
atmosphere us wind-storm and showers are to
purify the natural atmosphere"
1t is the duty of our Government to relieve
itself from all responsibility for the extension
OR countenance of Slavery, wherever it has tho
constitutional authority to legislate on that
subject.
We place our whole political action upon the
plancst principles of justice liberty and hu-
manly. We challenge examination, discussion,
agitation.
have said that Slavery is unconstitutional,
Tho Constitution, though shamefuly scan.
dalizcd, will stand firm against all attacks of
the Slave Power"
The Constitution of the United States is an
instrument for Freedom, and SO understood and
50 intended by its makers 1t is impossible for
human beings to be held in bondage, and made
chattels by virtue of the Constitution. 1t is
directly at war with such an exercise of power.
Slavery ought to DO abolished and driven
from the face Of the Globe. 1t is our duty as
phlanthropsts and Christians to do all in our
power to bring it about by laying hold of such
means as are within our reach, demanding free
territory. free discussion, and free men. Tho
alarming aspect that our country wears at the
present time, calls for all the friends of Freedom
to be at their posts. OF the evils Of Slavery
and the objects of the Slave Power we have
alarming and unmistakable proofs given us in
their efforts to make the Territory of Kansas q
Save State, as well as very striking demonstra-
tons recently given in the Senate Chamber, at
the Capital Of our Nation, Of its power and the
argument that sustains it.
Notwithstanding the alarming condition Of
our Country, the principles of Liberty are too
deeply rooted and firmly established throughout
our whole domain to be trodden under foot by
Slavery 1t the friends of Freedom will faith
fully attend to the call of their country, and
! show that they realize the value of their own
liberties, and are determined to maintain them
their numbers will secure them u triumph
Lei every man who feels that he has coun-
try to save, character to sustain--that owes a
duty to mankind and to God-come forward at
once, and make bold and cxterminating war
against the Slave Power, its acts and usurpa-
tions. | do not assert that an actual majority
of settlers in Kansas have right to establish
Slavery therein. recognize no such right any
more than the right to egalize crime therein
Our protest is entered against the eight eff ssae
to cnslave man. Let US all rally for man s in-
alicnable rights for Freedom and Fremont.

Fremont Meeting, "Ox-sled Elk
press" &C, &C.


On Monday evening the Mortified, Calais
and " oodbury Fremont Clubs had been invited
to meet the Club in this pace and raise Free
mont and Dayton Flag. And although every
body praised the glorious giver for the drenching
rain that had continued during the day, about
500 assembled to greet the unfurng of the ban
ner. After seeing it successfully unfurled they
ajournrd 10 the Club room and listened with long
and continued applause TO the spirited remarks
of the speakers -Messrs. Carpenter and Joyce
of Mortified, Mr.. Slayton of Calais, J. A. Vail
Esq. and E P. Walton of Montpelier. Mr..
Carpenter sarcaslcaIIy alluded TO the conduct of
the "hog orator." as he boys had dubbed the
postmaster at Mortified fol his frequent "pig-
trots" and speeches upon those occasions, and
his ungenIemanly language on Saturday evening.
He further alluded to the report of the Or sled
Express alias Patriot, which stated tina, he was
present at previous meeting, saying that he
was not there, but the a einent was as true as
most anything the Patriot contained
The reporter of the " Or Sled Express " was
present, and by his foolish arrogance gave per-
mission to some Of the most severe sarcasm
which we have ever heard. MIR. Slayton said
that Fremont had demanded the admission of
California as a Free State whereupon the re-
porter enquired if Fremont was not absent
from the United st ties Senate after his election,
and when California was admitted The ques-
ton was received with Kisses and groans, but
when Mr. Slayton replied that Col Fremont
was not in the Senate, because California was
not State, and therefore, could not have
Senator, the applause was dea(uing, 1t quiet
cd the reporter. But it had opened the wheel,
and when Mr. Joyce came to remark that he
did not believe the editor of the Patriot, alias
Or Sled Express, honest in his views, but that
he mig ht be compared to the fellow who ate the
- bugs on the raspbcrries, who, when rallied
for SO doing replied "why they tasted rather
bad ut first, but have got so used to them
that ! kind O. like them; he thought it SC
with the ofhce-holding Black Democracy, the
effect was conclusive, and the man who under
took to burlesque Northficd folks found him
self fully remembered.

Beware of it!

The Bratteboro PhGnir took us to task for
making objections TO Ilolbrook, or rather be-
cause we pressed the claims of the Free Democ-
racy and above al Of the distinctive anti slavery
men to voice and u representation in the
White River junction State Convention of July
I'd, saying (if VIC rightly Notwithstanding mis-
laid the article) that if there was II Free Dem
ocratic and Anti Slavery party in the State,
they had right to hold Convention of their
own, and asking what business they had in the
Republican Convention The result of that
Convention is known. The Phea,r refuses 10
hoist the ticket, instead Of, us it advised us,
abiding by the nominations; and last week
published the following call:
1--WE have been requested to publish the fol
lowing notice, inch comes to US from u respon
sibc source -
MASS STATE CONVENTION.
The Freedmen Of Vermont who are dsso tis6ed
with existing nominations and are in favor Of
an independent ticket for State officers, are re-
quested to meet in Mass Convention at White
hNeT ouncllon, vi TTiuay, tne ION DAY OF Au-
gust. to nominate such a ticket for state officers
rs shall seem advisable.
Publishers throughoutthc State are requested
to give this an insertion next week
MANY CITIZENS.
Now we have no objection to the PhGnir or
Many Citizens holding Convention and
nominating State officers, but we arc impressed
with the idea that honest and consistent Anti
Slavery men have now to buckle closer their ar
NOR and with renewed determination 90 forth
to the battle. While we deplore the madness Of
Many Citizens, We promise that, unless true
Anti Slavery principles be their motto, they
snail meet with an inglorious defeat from the
people OF the State. We think that there are
comparatively few who will lend hand for any
such trick as is proposed 10 the above call, and
we are confident that tina, call is but the result
OF the Vaccinations OF the Black Democracy
and we ask the people to beware Of it.
