on that point. His condemnation of the
president was equally emphatic, though
without denunciation.' The Burlington
Times thus speaks of Judge Poland's
speech
I'VE learn that without disparagement
Of the much praised speech of Mr.. Ed
munds, the admirable effort of Judge Po-
land was the theme of universal conimen-
dation ex-governor Clifford of Massa-
chusetts and several other foreigners
were present, and expressed warm admi-
ration OF the speech of our ninety-day
senator, who ought to be senator for life.
1t was commonly remarked that if Judge
Poiand's address had been made the day
before instead of the day after the cleo
ton, the result would have been 'on the
contrary, quite the reverse For the
credit of the state we are glad that Judge
Poland is one of our senators, even for
ninety days. He is every inch senator
of the Vermont type-able, firm, prudent,
wise"

Third District Contention.

NOMINATION OF WORTIIINGTON {. SMITH.
The second convention called III the Sd
district, was held at Hydepark the 18th.
1t was called delegate convention, and
was fully attended from all the counties
except Essex. Gen. Wm w. Grout of
Barton was chosen president, and on tax
inc the chair made brief speech inviting
union, peace and harmony, On a vote
being taken for candidate for congress.
Worthington c. Smith of ST. Adams had
Go votes, Asa O. Adds As, John II.
Woodward 6 and Worthington G. Smith
was declared nominated On motion of
Rev. {. L. Ferrin. the district committee
were instructed to call the next convention
as delegate convention.
According to the proclamation of Gov
ernor Dillingham;, the election will be held
next Tuesday, Nov 9th, at o'clock, P NJ.
p. S.-We regret to notice that the
nomination Of Mr. Smith does not secure
the harmony in the party that was expect
ed. A portion Of the party seem bound
to vote for Hon. Asa O. Adds, our con-
sui at Nice. Just what objection they
have to Mr.. Smith does not appear. only
that he was ''nominated in the bond
he was the man in whose favor Mr. Bax-
ter declined. While we consider it en-
tirely unnecessary and out of place that
Mr.. Baxter should have named his sue
cessor, we know of no reason why Mr..
Smith should not now be sustained as he
was evidently the choice of a majority OF
! the convention.

@ MessrS. Poland, Edmunds and Nor
rill addressed the members of the legisla-
ture and others at Montpelier on Wednes-
day evening of last week, on the political
questions OF the day. Representatives
hall was packed to its utmost capacity A
correspondent of the Burlington Free
Press supposed to be one Of its editors)
speaks thus of Judge Poland's remarks.
1t will be remembered the Press bitterly
opposed Judge P. in the senatorial cam
vass: "Judge Poland spoke last, and
longest, but no one interested in the sub
ject could have found him tedious. After
a calm review of the situation. he took
up the constitutional amendments in de-
tail and indicated them with strength
and carnestness which raised him in nv
opinion. already high, and doubt not in
that of his hearers generally. His expo
sition of the Importance of the first sec
ton in reference to citizenship, in view of
the possible changes in the supreme court
and of other possibilities, was fuller and
more torcible than anything | remember

The Fenidns Again..

We have been so much absorbed in pO-
litical matters having their center at
Washington. that the Fenians, who made
SO much stir onl, a few months since,
had almost passed out Of mind, until the
trials'of some who were so unfortunate as
to fall into British hands, and which have
just taken place at Toronto, have again
brought them prominently before the peo-
pie.
The first trial was that Of Colonel
Lynch. 1t was concluded the 18th ult.,
and he was found guilty and sentenced to
be hung Dec. Is. Before his sentence he
was allowed to speak for himself, when
he stated that he had no hand, act orpart
in the late raid, but Il came simply as
the correspondent of public journal, and
in SO doing | was not aware that l VIOLA
ted either the the laws of Canada or those
of my adopted country. | was not aware
there could be any objection to a reporter
following the army and chroniclirg the
incidents. Had | known this | would
have been careful to have remained on
the other side" The prisoner evidently
had no idea that his crime was snch as to
forfeit his life on the scahold, and con-
demnation to death was entirely unex-
pectcd.
Besides Lynch, one John Mcmahon, a
catholic priest, was convicted and sen
fenced to be hung the same day as Lynch
lie claimed, in defence, that he was simp-
ly with the Fenian army to administer to
the wants of the wounded, and that he
never bore arms.
The termination of these two trials and
sentence OF the prisoners to death. has
created great excitement in the states, es-
pecially among the order. Our govern
ment has been petilioned to intercede in
their behalf, and Secretary Seward has
sent communication to the British min
lister saying that the United States will
claim the right to examine into the le9ali-
ty of these trials, and expressing the hope
that the executions will be suspended If
this examination should make delay nee
essary. He also suggests that as the Of
Tense was political a policy of clemency
and forgiveness would not be out of the
way.
We cannot see how. after all their good
advice to the north about her treatment
of rebels, the British government can pro-
ceed to hang these Fenians, who, if guilty
of all charged upon them. bear not the
slightest comparison IN guilt to the rebels
who undertook to overthrow this govern
mcnt.
Large Fenian meetings have been held
in several of the larger cities. at which the
Canadian government was denounced, and
in case their friends We're hung. \ retalia-
ton was threatend. On the whole, the
Fenian troubles do not yet seem to be
settled.
The Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1837-1867, 1866-11-02

sorv to such treatment of human beings!"
Aud although he spoke with the deepest
feelings at the Baltimore affair of the
Fort Pillow massacre and pledged retalia-
ton. vet that pledge was never carried
into execution. 1t was simply impossible
for Mr.. Lincoln to be cruel or vindictive,
no matter what the occasion. In tine Sc
rene light of history, when party strife
and bitterness shall have passed away. it
will be seen that, if he erred at all, it was
always on the side OF mercy and magma
nlmlty.
