Emancipation Meeting at Barre.

The friends OF the National Administration
met at the Town Hall on the evening of the 9TH
inst. After organizing the meeting, the Presi-
dent, Hon. Leonard keith, arose and stated the
object of the meeting as follows
FetloW Citizens We have met this evening
for the purpose of expressing ctr appro oa,ion in
behalf of the administration. The Emancipation
Proclamation, issued by President Lincoln, in
our estimation is one of the most just, humane
and righteous proclamatons ever issued from our
Executive Chair. Notwithstanding the status of
the slaves may not be Immediately affected be-
yond the lines of our army, an they have to lin
ger awhile in bondage, yet their freedom is de-
| creed by our worthy Executive. He has washed
his hands from this of all vilanies," in reb.
eldom and we may justly look for the blessings
Of God upon the government, and its sons in arms.
No true, patriotic supporter of the government
will lend his encouragement to tbs rebels, or
their accompllces in breaking up the Union. We
cannot shut our eyes to the fact, that desperate
and dangerous opposition to the National Admin
lstratioa is forming which under the guiss of ex-
erting constitutional restraint can have-and in
some cases is meant to have-no other effect than
to PROSTATE the government before the usurgent
leaders, AID break the Union asunder.
The remarks Of the President were received
with evident applause. After which, Hon. C. w.
Willard addressed the meeting for one hour.
Mr.. w., though quite out of health, highly en-
tertained the audience. We here omit q para
graph commendatory of the speaker.-ED.7 He
was followed by Rev. E. Carpenter, whose re- !
marks evidenced clear thought, and energetic in
terest in the country's welfare.
The Rev. Mr.. Eaton made some remarks. after
Mr.. C., which evidenced 10 sympathy with the
opposers Of the Union. AS it was now getting
late and there were several other persons wishing
to speak, it was thought best to adjourn to
W ednesday Eve, Jan. Il.
On motion to adjourning the President was re-
quested to invite the Hon. P. Dillingham; to ad-
dress them, in connection with Others at their
aext meeting. There was large attendance.
