New York with green sprgs in their caps a
year ago. Since then, those hardy fellows have

on every field have borne themselves with a he
roism and tortitude worthy of their glorious
State. Their comrades now rush to the rescue :;
and with none the less alacrity because their

lnE NEsNoNr PLATFORM The position taken
10y the Union aud Republican state convention
of Vermont is prominently the right and sale
one. An attempt was made 10y some of the
radicals to Ireyeot an endorsement OF the con
tuu0naI aHt-,layery policy OF the admins
trauon, bat their strength lies in talk not in
votes, and the resolutions were enthusiastically
adopted. We are especially graided at the
action of the Vermont convention, because It's
platform Is consistent 10 every respect with the
principles and policy we have felt impelled to
advocate in this crisis, ms involving alike the
continued existence OF the republican party and
OF the Union. The S0undness vi the aut-slaye-
ny sentiment OF Vermont is beyond question,
and Vermont endorses fully and uneqnyocal'y
the policy of the administration S SPRINGFIELD
