To Our Friends.

We have now three thousand names upon our
books who have not paid their present year s
subscription. 10 these we are furnishing capt.
tai in purchasing labor and white paper, while
weshould have the money justly due from them
instead The first half of the year is past, and it
is no more than right that after we have trusted
them half a year they should in turn trust us
by sending us their years subscription.
The small quarters in which he Freeman has
been kept are altogether inadequate and I'M
pleasant for our increasing business, while the
Office is out of the way, and inconveniont to get
at. Rents are necessarily very high in town
where there is as much business done as in
Montpelier, and increasing as fast sit is, which
compells us to the only remaining alternative
that of erecting building of ample proportions,
which will be roomy and pleasant, and an orna-
ment to the town. And in this undertaking we
wish the aid of each one who is interested in
the welfare Of the Green Mountain Freeman
and the success of the principles for which we
have together enlisted.
We were among the number who, five years
ago, looked with sorrow upon the waning Stal
of Liberty which had risen over our State, and
deplored the prospect which threatened to ex
tinguish the last ray of Light. Every paper ii
the advocacy of Freedom, except the Freeman
had gone to sleep, while the Freenaan's circula
ton had materially fallen off under pressure o
outside influences and want Of tact within, am
few years must have added it to its opmpan
iA-s il s,ssl, = -~asisTss4 sf things che nv
people Of the Liberty party deemed it theil
duty to take its guidance under their immediat,
supervision. The result is, that out Of this de
caying condition q new order of things ha
sprung. The circulation of the Freeman is one
half larger than euer before, and rapidly increas
ing. 1t influence is felt and feared, and we arr
happy to believe that under the guardianship
of its able counsclors it will have a still wide
influence. 1t will, as it has, maintain an indie
pendent position, battling for Truth, Justic
and Morality defending parties 50 far as the,
adhere to principles, and denouncing them when
ever they depart.
Pecuniary encouragement is very necessar,
for the success of the Freeman, and we wisl
every one of its subscribers who have not paiC
their present years subscription to take tn
$3.50 from his pocket book and send it by mai
to us, with such words of news and suggestion
as he shall have 1t is a small sum to each, Blu
with three thousand it makes 81 ,500-iust tn
cost of a years publication of the Freeman.

FAILING Enthusiastically the apples,
pears and plums are beginning to drop album
dainty from the trees. Ifyou examine these
you will discover not sing lie sound speci-
men among them. They have fallen, not by
the winds, but, quite likely, prematurely
from disease. Cut them open, and you find
either eggs, or grubs already at work upon
the substance Of the fruit. Every one of
these fruits is a pest-house, to be Immediately
destroyed. 1t is good work for the boys to
pick them up, and throw them into the pig
stye, where they will be devoured, or rot
among the iermenting mapures. We are
persuaded that the destruction caused by the
curculio, and by the grubs that prey upon the
apples and pears, is caused, mainly, by the
neglect, of this simple precaution The faI-
Zen fruit is suffered to lie upon the ground,
and mature its progeny of insects. The next
year they swarm in increasing numbers, and
the farmer complains that therefis something
peculiar in his soil and climate, he cannot
grow good fruit. The difficulty is in the man
and not in the soil. Pick up the fallen
fruit.
And this reminds us of an apple orchard
70 visited last season. The proprietor had
Seen accustomed for years to turn ia his
store pigs, and to keep them through the sea-
son, until the apples were sufficiently mature
for making cider. Not an apple escaped the
pigs from July to September. The conse-
quence of this policy was, that he had fair
handsome apples to sell, while his neighbors
were complaining that their crop was nearly
all perforated with worms. Shall the pigs
have chance at the fallen fruit.

Orleans COunty---Rum Ahead.

EpIroR FREEMAN VIII you permit an If
literate backwoodsman to speak in his rough
way through the Freeman, upon a subject oil
vital Importance to our State? Ii so, you may
be troubled with short article now and then
on the subject of Temperance.
During the setting of the Grand Jury at
Irasburgh, (present term) number OF com
plants were presented to them for what were
supposed to be gross violations of the Liquor
Law, eThe complaints referred to were fros@-
Grcensboro'.)
1t seems in that town it is the practice among
the advocates of rum-drinking, (and they in
clude nearly majority of the pcople,) to furn-
ish liquor at raisngs, pass it round freely, urge
all-young and old-to drink of the intoxi-
eating cup and it is not unfrequenlly the case,
that number before they leave, get what is
sometimes termed rather tight, Others are as
ssited in getting to their homes in state of
beastly ntoxicatiOn.
1t was for furnishing rum at these raisings
that complaints were presented to the Grand
Jury by the States Attorney, j. Il. Dickerman.
| am informed that the Grand Jury offered in
opinion in regard to the construction of the II
quor Law, some claiming thai tlfs furnishing OF
ram at raisings and Hike occasions is plain
violation of law, others contcnded that it was
not so. The Grand Jury being unable to agree,
delegation was sent to Judge Poland to get
his construction of the statute, which was, if +
am rightly Informed, practically, that in the
furnishing of Liquor at raisngs, (though hun
dreds of people might assemble. and score
get drunk, and some get killed by the means of
rum, the Law is not violated unless rum is
given to habitual drunkard-. Accordingly, all
the complaints before the Grand Jury of the
character aforementioned, from Greensboro,
were dismissed, and no bills found.
Since the decision of Judge Poland, it is said
that the rummies in Orleans County talk of
enlarging their nlan of operations, so as to be
able to do business hereafter on a large scale.
What think you brother Temperance men p
If Judge Poland's construction of the Law is
correct, shall we not have more work for DR..
Powers next fall? Rock BoTToN.

The CONDITION OF THE DEMOCRACY. The New
York Hss'ol4, which is now an especial organ Of
the democratic party, says
Excepting the nucleous Of Mr.. Buchanan :
administration and the remnant of the demo-
craIic party, North and South, that have rallied
around IL, there ia no existing political organi-
zaslon IN the country which practically covers
all the requirements of truly national Marty
AT the same time, we must not overlook The
fact that in consequence of the treacherous and
mutinous proceedings of party leaders and
cliques III both houses of Congress during the
late session, this regular democratic party ba,
been reduced to that extremity of weakness,
which renders it doubtful whether, this day
it could command positive popular majority
in any one State of all the thirty-two which
now compose the union.''

DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVENTION. From the
reports we learn that about two hundred dele
gates were present at the Democratic Convention
at Bellows Falls, and got into stormy discus
sion as to the difference between tweedle-dun
and twocdle-dee, which ended in tweedle dum'f
success, who carried the Convention. G.. G.
Eastman, of the Patriot, was President, and the
last years ticket was set up, like the Paddy'i
brick, to be again kicked over next fall.

SUFFOLK AND MAoKAY PIGs.-Mr. +. Hol-
brook, Prest of the Vt. State Ag. Society,
says -" A cross of the Suffolk aid Makay
breeds make the best pigs l have ever fed.
Pigs that are half and half of these breeds
mature early, are deep in the carcass and
have bone enough to stand upon their legs till
fsttened fit for saughtering. There is con-
slant tendency in our fine bred swine to run
too small. Youmust have size, coupled with
thrift, aud early maturity, to make March
pigs weigh on an average, three hundred
pounds each, dressed by the first of January
following. Either of these breeds cross well
with the large breeds of the country"

The Bellows Falls Times referring to the Re

publican State campaign says:
We notice with degree of satisfaction that
the local nominations have been made wisely.
No spirit of narrowness has been shown in any
of the County Conventions yet held, and we
trust will not in any yet to come. With lust
and liberal policy in making such nominations,
the Republican party will become a unit in the
State, and antecedents will be obliterated
There should be no occasion to inquire whether
such an one was formerly n democrat or wing
or Free soiler, and will not be if the proper
conrse is pursued.

SENATOR SuMNER.-A private letter from one
Of the most distinguished physicians in France,
says that upon consultation by the leading
doctors in that empire relative to the case Of
Senator Sumner, who is now~in Paris, it has
been decided to perform an operation upon the
back, for the purpose of producinga counter
irritation. The operation is that of cauteriza-
tion-the burning of the flesh and muscle to
the spinal column. While this operation is
very severe, usually, it is said that it now can
be performed by the aid of ether, without pro-
ducing the slightest pain. 1t is believed that
the operation will prove of the greatest advan-
tage to the patient,
Later accounts say that the Paris physicians
sustained by the opinion of DR.. George HAY,
ward of Boston, had, up to June 18th, four
times applied whte-hot irons to Senator Sum
ncr's neck and back, for cauterization of the
spine to produce CONTEMPLATION. They be-
levo there is still congestion of the ntegumonts
of the BRAIN. When the burning remedy was
announced to Mr., Sumner, he said, trv it
without delay, in any form, and to any extent"
refused to take chloroform or other anodvncs.
and bore it without wincing. The process was
still to be repeated.
