Who Shall be Gnvernor2

Eo,Toa FREEMAN Il am u plain man, and
Props, u make a few plain remarks upon the
question which heads this article. You say in
recent number that it seems to lie between
Mr. Slade and Mr.. Hall. Ibelieve it is general
ly conceded that we shall have new Ticket
viii you tell your readers what earthly reason
there is for taking man who has been loaded
with honors, and grown gray in the public
services, and retired in good old age from the
strife and turmoil of politics, to make him Gov
ernor of the State of Vermont?
Mr.. Editor, have one reason which | regard
as sufficient, why Mr.. Hall should not be nom
inatcd-he has been elected to Congress twelve
years, and has received his share of the honor
and emolument of Office, and has retired. Why,
ask again, should his friends bring him for
ward as candidate? Is it to resuscitate and
inaugurate the old Wing Party in this State !?
[ tell you, Mr.. Editor, | am opposed to disturb
ing those ASHES The people are tired of those
old, worn-out public men, and they are willing
they should rest with ther honors. They want
men of this age mddle-aged men that belong
to this generation, for public officers. Wehave
u precedent in this State, which | think we
should do well to follow, in making up our
Ticket for State officers. 1t will be recollected
Chat Gov Eaton was, in the first place, elected
for two years Lieutenant Governor, then for
two years elected Governor So il has been in
the case of the present Chief Magistrate
Twice he has been elected Lieutenant Governor,
and twice he has been elected Governor. Now
let us adopt this precedent, and it would be
very easy to make up Ticket that would be
received by the people with acclamation. What
say you and your readers to making up State
Ticket as follows? For Governor, James M.
Slade, of Middlebury for Lieutenant Governor,
Mr.. Cahoon of Lyndon, or Mr.. Martin of Chel-
sea, or Mr. Hunton of Bethel; for Treasurer,
Abijah Keith of Montpelier.
They are all good men, and true to the prin-
ciples of the Republican Party. They arc men
qualified for the places for which they arc
named They would do honor to the State Of
Vermont. They are men who live in this age
They are men who have not been loaded down
with Offices. They are men who have labored
to establish the great and popular doctrines Of
human freedom. In one word, they are d" faith
full, they are capable, they arc honest Give
us these men, and another triumphant election
awaits us in September next.
This Ticket would be just to all parts Of thu
State. (NoT SIGNED)

EDITOR FREEMAN Il do not feel authorized,
on parliamentary grounds to call writers of
your journal to order, but do feel that " j.
A. Spear in using your columns to sustain
religious theory, takes privilege not claimed
by, or conceded to others. Besides he treats
the readers of the Freeman as if he thought
their patience was made of iron. In your issue
of May 27th he devotes full column and a
quarter to the subject of Spiritualsm without
shedding ray of light upon it. Indeed, in
entering on the subject, he-almost makes a
declaration that he does not understand it him
self He proposes to inform us not what Spir-
ituaism assuredly teaches, but what g the best
informed Spiritualists think it teaches" Even
this information we are to have only as near as
the writer " can ascertain His article is
marked No. |, thus notifying us that it is only
the vanguard of more. Why will not the
writer postpone No 2, till he can have time to
consult standard authors on Spirtualism, if
any such there are, 80 as to inform authorita-
lively what Spiritualism teaches and not what
! its friends think it teaches? He need take no
pains to show that Spiritual influence exists, for
belief of it is common. But if it is necessary
for us to know anything about Spiritualism
as he teaches it, we ought to be informed how
the Spirit of truth is distinguished from u
Spirit of falsehood. That Spirit which teach
cs that the tables of stone were not written by
the finger of God, but written through Moses
as medium is, at least, Spirit wise above what
is written, if not lying Spirit.
}, |. SMITH.
Mr.. Smith is informed that he is wrong in
saying that the same privilege is not conceded
to Others for we never refuse articles of interest
Besides we have the apology for Mr.. Spear. that
Spiritualism has been heretofore only heard up
on one side, and as Mr.. Spear and Miss Spraguc
propose to tell us what they think Spiritualsn
is, we have consented to give them an accasion
t al hearing.
1t might be as we'll that such discussion be
: confined to Spiritual paper, but our motto il
, /" neutral in nothing The other communi
nication Of Mr.. Smith will appear next week
and we shall be happy to hear from him Otter
upon the subject proposed.
