Correspondence Of the Freeman.
BURLINGTON, May lsl


DEAR SIR II presume you gee much in Bur-
lington papers, yet you can hardly Imagine
! the real state of tho Queen City of Vermont.
One week ago, stranger entering the town in
any direction, would be lret with tie question
" Are you go,ng?' If YOU passed on to the
Hotel you prefer, there d crowd would meet
you on the STEPS, with the same question speak
ing on their faces, If not from their tongues
You went up the street, and AZ you passed tho
Town Hall, the sound Of the fife and drum in
vitcd you TO enlist and dozen men stood ready
with the same question: Are you going -
You passed on toward the Offices of tho daily
papers, of which, by this tune you had gather
ed Il small bundle, including extras and tele
grams. Here crowd is found, standing with
their eyes fixed upon long pacard, labeled,
" Times Builciia." They look at you n mo-
ment, as you join them. and then comes the
question again, " Are you gong!'
Possibly some one just arrived might express
doubt of the txped'ency Of every one leaving
his employment, and going immediately. At
once there would be tarn in matters. From
the placard, attention would be directed upon
the man. Here was something to be got at
upon which pent up enthusiasm, might be ex.
pended. The point was argued, and the doc
trine enforced, until it so turned out that the
quletest man that entered Burlington during
that week, though he might have entered it
serene and calm, became in two hours wildly
belligerent.
This has not ended in smoke Now files of
troops are practicing in the Guard Room, aud
parading in the streets, every day, and every
hour of the day. Flags are floating from pub.
lie ard private buildings, and are worn in min
iature as badges Prayer meetings for the
volunteers have rev and rare interest Files
of citizens and students twice each day take
their drill, that they ,nay be prepared to join
future Companies, and are declared to do wen
derluly VOL soldering, Burlington has been
going gong,' and to-day we shall say, Gone
Very truly yours,

Of reprobaiing and condemning them, for the

would 20 with him to the bitter end OF the
law, to bring these great criminals to justice.
But, sir. when he goes so fay a. TO make these
atrocities the subject OF attack and general
charge against the North, in the name OF the
North, ! hurl them back upon the senator
with unutterable scorn and contempt SIR,
in hehnli of the pcoI le of the North, de"y
these charges. They are an honest people.
They mean 10 do justice aud 10 respect 'hc
rights of the South In spite of all your
Personal Liberty Bills, you cannot show me
an instance where the law has not been car
red out. admit in some things they have
done wrong. But when the Senator makes
these sweeping charges against nay people as
Northern man, could not say anything
less than have said. ! mean no disrespect
toward the Senator He has Gone much,
since he came into the -ennte, to warm my
heart towards him; and regretted much to
hear him make such remarks"
Mr. Thornton explained, that he only al
luded to the anti slavery party in the North,
to which Mr.. Elgerton rep|ied
Mr.. President. the genteman's explana-
ton does him no credit except so far as
credit is due to the heart. He says he made
these charges against the anti slavery senli-
ment at the North The sentiment Of the
North is all anti-slavery. Education, the
nature of Northern institutions soil, geogra-
ply, everything, make the sentiment of the
North against slavery. in the same manner
that these causes make the sentiment at the
South in favor of it, And | tell him that
with the exception of a miserable, black,
anthracite element of the Republican part y
at the North, there is not one man, woman OF
child, in all that section that countenanccs
the crimes he has recited here. And, sir
am no Republican, us think everybody
/ knows
The conclusion of Mr. Edgerton's Fpcocl
was glowing and eloquent, noble in sentiment
and most worthy of the theme and the oc-
casion. We hope that copies Of this speecI
will be literally distributed throughout the
country.

MILITARY ELxcTIoN.-The Nevada Rifles
recognized last week 10y the election of a
few new members and new officers The
contest for the chief command came between
W. ?. Harrington and J. B. Van Hagen, the
old Captain. The result showed a majority
Of two in favor Of the former. T. W. Sigor-
ney was elected to the second, and A, w.
Potter 20 the third office. 1t is understood
that hard feelings were engendered between
the two parties, in consequence of a very lib

AGAINST SECEssIoN.-The Southern Con-
federocy, paper published at Atlanta, Ga,
in announcing the passage of the secession
ordinance, by the Convention of that State,
says:
"Posterity will regard the act as wanting
in craftsmanship, and the greatest folly ever
committed by a great and prosperous people
But undue prosperity begets luxury and rest
lessness, and grave deeds are often committed
without reflection or reason. Posterity will
censure the act of secession, for the reason
that the seeding States in their several Con-
ventions made no demands for the redress of
grievances, but madIy-yea bludly-pre-
cipitated a revolution. To stand justified in
the eye of the future, and before the scrutiny
of civilization, we should demand redress in a
Convention of ali the States"
