moderation has been carried to such an extent
as to threaten the fundamental principle of our
government, namely, that the majority shall
rule. TO imagine that a man of Mr. Summers
abilities is to sit in his place without using those
abilities, is an idea that could only originate in
minds that have long been overshadowed by
slavery. 1t is the picture of giant simply al
lowing himself to be shockled by pgmies, at q
moment when his strength is needed.
The chief argument with the South in favor
of their institutions, for a long time, was, that
slavery with them was practical question, Of
fearful import, not one of mere abstract moral
value; and that thereforeit should not be treat
cd on mere theoretical grounds. This argument
which was then true of the South, is now true
of the whole country. Slavery has become q
fearfully practical question with us, and some
thing practical must bo done in the case We
have discussed its merits long enough. The
opening plea in the case was pronounced mere
than thirty years ago by Mr. Webster, in his
great speech against Mr. Hayne; the reoinder
has now been delivered by Mr. Sumner; and it
is full time that the question should go to the
people for verdict.
To have expected that the South would sur
render the power without a struggle, woaid
have been unreasonable; and it were equally
so to hope that she would do it without a blow
like this which has been struck by the able
Senator from Massachusetts. 1t was needed,
The South, itself, had to be convinced of the
falsity of the position which she was compelling
her federal delegation to advocate, before she
could listen to reason or be prepared to co-ope-
rate in those measures which are necessary for
the extrication of herself and the country from,
the evils of slavery.

THE CATTLE DISEASE.

The Springfield Republican in summing I'D
the results of the late special session of the
Massachusetts Legislature, closes its article with
the following sensible remarks:
The people will be satisfied with the result of
the special session SO far as it substitutes sola-
ton instead of slaughter, and establishes a calm
and rational instead of panic system of deal
ing with the disease. 1t is very clear now that
there is and has been no cause of excessive
Alarm No cases of the disease have been re-
ported at North Brookfeld since April, and of
the single cases reported elsewhere the majority
have turned out to be something else, or have
not since been heard from. The fact that only
Mr. Chenery's herd have had the disease at Bel
mont shows that it could not have been very
virulently contagious. Many cases of ordinary
pneumonia, which has long been common among
cattle, have probably been mistaken for what is
considered contagious peuro-pneumonia It's
well to use every precaution and to practice
rgid isolation IN every probable case of the
disease, but it does not follow whenever a COW
takes cold and coughs, or gets a piece of straw
stuck in her gulet that it is necessary to knock
her IN the head and bury her at once, and with
her all she has run or fed with for a month. 1t
is hoped that the scientific commission will be
able to ascertain some unmistakable signs by
which the ordinary may be distinguished from
the extraordinary pleuro- pneumonia. They
may also do something towards settling the
question, which is still open, Notwithstanding
the positive assertions made, as to the contag
iousness of the disease.
AS the matter now stands the owners of cat
tie can only be calm and watchfu, and await
the course OF events. They should see to it
that their herds have clean and well ventilated
stalls, and that all the conditions of health and
Vigor are Kept up. They should guard them as
much as possible from connection with other
herds, and in every case of the disease. or what
seems to be the disease, take prompt measures
OF isolation, and do all that the statutes and
good sense dictate. We incline to the hope
and expectation that we shall hear very little
more about the pleuro-pneumona in Massachu-

FLAT HERESY.

1t was not unfrequent during the first stages
OF the reformation to hear the able arguments
and disquisitions Of the reformers pronounced
as fiat heresy. Heresy was the chief terror
that the anti-reformers possessed against the
liberty of thought and speech that was then
struggling into existence. 1t was like those
monstrous DISCUSSES which the Chinese soldiers
use for the purpose of intimidating their eue-
mics. If bigoted doctor, or celebrated clerk,
should arise from the perusal of a reformer's
book, and with awful emphasis pronounce it the
--LATEST, most.downright heresy that was ever
written, it was enough, in the minds of many
to damn it to all eternity.
So it is with Mr. Summers speech. Some of
our most learned editors have denounced it as
flat heresy to all established customs
and usages; being quite opposed to the time
honored and respected prescriptions of slavery +;
manifesting rebellious spirit against its impo-
sitions, and seeking even to prescribe limits to
its operations and to its insolence the most
downright, barefaced heresy that was ever heard
OIL!
But there Is one marked difference between
the struggles Of liberty now and in the days of
the reformation. Its advocates were few then,
and greatly in the minority; whereas, they are
in the majority now. There need be no stron-
ger evidence of the moderation and patience of
the North than the fact that they have grown
to have more than double the free population
of the slave States, and are still held in bondage
by the slave-power. That is, our so-called

New HAMPsHIRE.-The Legislature of this
St. tie assembled at Concord on Wednesday Of
last week, and organized by the election of Re-
publican officers in both branches. Charles H.
Bell of Exeter was chosen Speaker of the
House by so majority. The official canvass
placed the Republican majority for governor at
1907. Next November Lincoln's majority will
reach 5000. Gov. Goodwin delivered his mes
sage on Thursday. 1t is an admirable State
paper, showing among other things that the
Republican administration has reduced the
State debt over $4,000 the past year. The
Governors Horse Guards, a magnificent body
of troops organized as regiment, paraded for
the first time on this occasion. On Wednesday
the Legislature reelected Daniel Clark, republi-
can, United States Senator for six years from
the 4th of March Eext. The vote in the House
was 1874 for Clark to lOS for John S. Wells,
democrat, ~ for Amos Tuck, republican, and /
for Ex-Governor Colby; the vote in the Senate
was for Clark to 9 for Wells.

DEMOCRATIC CONVENTIONS.

The Seceders Convention at Richmond, which
is a sort of tender to the Baltimore convention,
met on Monday and adjourned the next day to
await the action of the regulars. Its proceed
ings amounted to just nothing at all, and the
interest it awakened was just about the same
measure.
The Baltimore Convention is to meet on
Monday next, but since Lincoln was nominated
by the Republicans no one feels TO care what it
leaves undone. Our neighbor of the Argus an
nounces that he has gone "to be present at the
nomination of the next President of the United
States" 1t is much more likely that he will
attend the funeral of his party before he returns,
as the remains of the "poor defunct deceased"
have remained so long unburied as to become
offensive. 1t is proper that the argus should
be present on the occasion, for no one in these
parts has greater reason to be a sincere mourn

A ROOTLEss EFFORT.

The Constitution and lesser lights of the
democratic party raised great hue and cry
short time since because Mr. Covode, chairman
of the House Investigating Committee, refused
to accede to the request of Mr. Winslow and
summon twenty or thirty individuals merely on
vague rumors, and without any specific informa-
ton, touching Mr. Scranton's election he hav-
ing been elected by 1000 majority in a District
that had given 5000 democratic majority only
two years previous. Mr. Winslow appealed to
the House, and the investigation was almost
unanimously ordered, as the House would have
to pay the expenses rather than Mr. Covode,
who has footed the bills of his committee thus
far.
The investigation has been held, and a great
er failure can scarcely be imagined. Mr. Wins
lows witnesses could not substantiate single
charge. The Hon. George Sanderson, demo-
crat of Scranton, testified substantially that he
knew of no money having been used in any
way to further Mr. Scranton's election. The
reason of the great change in that Congression-
al District was the disaffection which prevailed
among the democracy toward the present ad-
ministration, and the high character and great
popularity of Mr. Scranton, who was esteemed
among all classes. He considered that the an
ti-Lecompton feeling exerted much influence ON
the result. ]. ii. Puleston stated that he ac-
companied Mr. Scranton throughout the greater
part of the canvass of 1858, and aided in its
general management. No money had been i'm
properly used to his knowledge, directly or in
directly and no questionable means to advance
Mr. Scranton's election. The large vote which
he obtained was a tribute to his extended pop
ularty, his fidelity to the protective policy, and
his enterprise and public spirit. A. Davis, ed
itor of the Scranton Herald, democratic Or
gan, supported Mr. Scranton in opposition to
the regular democratic nominee, because of his
fitness and devotion to the best interests of the
people of his district. He received no pecuni-
AIRY consideration for these services. ID. s.
Koon, lawyer, residing at Pittston, who pre-
ferred the charges, knew nothing beyond vague
statements, and upon re-examining Mr. Pule-
ston, IN reply, he was unceremoniously dismissed
as unworthy of notice. Other democrats were
ready and anxious to testify in Mr. Scrantons
behalf, but Mr. Winslow became disguised with
the whole development and refused to take any
more testimony, admitting that he had been
grossly deceived. He will make statement in
the House fully generating Mr. Scranton. The
committee unanimously ordered that Mr. Koon
should not receive either mileage or fees. re.
gardng his conduct us an attempt at extortion.
MIR Scranton, however, very generously directed
his returning expenses paid, notwithstanding
his base aspersions. All the other witnesses
were discharged and paid.

The REPUBLICAN NoMINATIoNs.-We have
received courteous and well written commu
ncation from Ak" touching the republican
nominations, which want of space prevents our
publishing in full. "K." is well enough salts
fed with the nomination of LINCOLN and HAM
LIN but he asks, "Why did the delegation of
Vermont in-th a-frL:----
ally throw away their votes upon the first bal
lot, and go counter to the known wishes of
their constituents thereafter? Let them tell
u.s." If our correspondent will attend the State
Convention he will doubtless learn from the
delegates themselves the reasons which inHu-
enced their action. In the mean time it NAV
be proper to remark that although a majority
Of the republicans of Vermont, would prefer
the election of VIM. II. SEWARD as President
to that of any other man, they were not pre-
pared to assist in his nomination to the detriment
of the party. Had our delegates believed that
his election was reasonably certain they would,
we believe, have given him their cordial sup
port; but we think they expressed the senti-
ments of their constituents in believing the
success of republican principles of more con-
sequence than the elevation of any man how
ever commanding his talents or deserving his
services. The first point was to nominate
man whose republicanism could be depended
upon; after that expediency wisely governed in
the selection.

MAINE.-The State Convention of the Re-
publcans of Maine, was held at Bangor on
Thursday the 7th inst 1t was numerously at
tended, and the proceedings were of the most
animated character. Israel Washburn, Jr., who
is now serving his constituents the fifth term in
Congress, was nominated for Governor, and he
is so deservedly popular that he will be elected
by 10000 majority. The democrats held the
ascendency in Maine ever after there was such
a thing as a democratic party, with the single
exception of 1910, until Mr. Hamlin gave them
such drubbing in 1856, since when they have
been as regularly beaten. Mr. Hamlin having
now been transferred to the national ticket he
will signalze the event by giving the democracy
a national drubbing.

THE ALBANY LAW SCHOOL.

The circular and catalogue of the Law School
of the University of Albany tor the year 1859
60, exhibits the names of one hundred and
twenty nine students, nine of whom are from
Vermont. OF these latter, two we are happy
to see, are from this County, and have Just
graduated, viz, JAMES NJ TYLER of GunFoRD,
and CHARLES w. DEAN of GRAFTON. The
subjects of their graduating dissertations were
of Mr. Tyler, "4he Legal profession" and OF
Mr.. Dean, "TaJtieS as interested illnesses"
We heartily welcome these gentlemen back to
our midst; and hope that they may find a
pleasant practical exercise of their profession
in this their native State, which presents, per-
haps, the purest fountain of the Common Law
that safe guard of human liberty-any where
to be found in the United States. 1t is very
much to be regretted, we think, that we have
not law school here in Brattleboro! The
locality is favorable for one in every point Of
view. 1t may be considered as bearing a SINH
lar relation to the law that location in Italy
does to the fine arts. 1t is one of the original
affairs upon which the flames of liberty are kept
bright by burning, sending up the continual in
cense of respect to law, order, religion and hui
manity-a pure fountain head from which flow
those influences that have made and which
keep us FREE PEOPLE.

REVOLUTION IN NAPLEs.-The Island of Sic

Naples, is in a state Of revolution. A few weeks
since Garibaldi landed with 2000 men at Mar
sala on the western part of the island, since
which time his army has been greatly augmen-
ted by recruits from the island. The latast in
telligence is that he has conquered in several
battles, taken Palermo, and that he will soon be
master of Sicily. No government or pco-
pie seem to regret the downfall of Neopolitan
tyranny.
