let 1t be known from the north to the SOUTH
from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and to
every nation on the face Of the earth, that
America, as a nation will never lay her
honor In the dust. 1t is well and fitting for
all nations to think candidly and carefully
before they engage in deadly conflict, for Il
means much.
We would not rush unthinkingly into
war, nor, on the other hand, would we
withhold from our neighbors the crumbs
which fall from our own table, though we
take the sword in one hand, and the crumbs
in the other. Methinks, tonight, could the
heavenly gate be left aiar, the voice we
would hear reverberating from the heaven
ly courts would be, Feed my people, and
free them from the yoke Of bondage. And
II Congress, in its zeal, has been too i'm
patient to relieve the sufferings OF Cuba,
and to set the oppressed free, let the man
tie OF charity fall upon 1t, as it's motive has
been equity, Justice and humanity; for
these are the basis, the foundation stones,
upon which we stand as a nation. 1t is
much easier, sometimes, to unsheathe the
sword and go forth to battle for the right,
than to sit calmly down and see the saliva

Blessed is that nation whose God is the

The American people are not to engage

An Ill.Timed Letter.

Since Gen. McCullough's withdrawal
from the contest for the governorship,
Judge Hugh Henry of Chester has again
rushed into print, in the Rutland
Herald, to declare it to be I" the duty of
every patriotic Vermonter to do every
thing honorable to secure the nomina-
ton of his favorite candidate. Com
tinuing, thejudge finds in every line of
Gen. McCullough's letter can added
argument for the people to rise in their
might and break the shackles of politi-
cal intrigue now binding them" The
sentiment is lofty one, and the theme
inspiring. But isn't it rather amusing
for "Onr Hugh" to be crying about
the "shackles of political intrigue9"
And what does he mean by declaring
that the future purity of elections,
etc." demands the nomination of but
one man, and that of his own particular
choice? The statement can but be con-
strued as studied insult to the great
mass OF Vermonters, who, holding Gen.
Mccullough in the greatest respect and
esteem, yet exercise their God-given
right and independence in choosing for
themselves to support Col. Smith. We
fully agree with the judge that "above
the petty consideration of securing
party harmony" there is call for "the
broadcast and best intellectually within
her borders" And for that very reason
the Journal has advocated, and now ad-
vocates, the nomination of Edward
Curtis Smith, the peer of any man in
Vermont in ability, integrity and love
for his native State.
In conclusion Judge Henry intimates
that the whole governorship question
will be settled in convention, a state
ment that no one doubts and no one
questions. But when he gives US to
understand that his favorite will re-
main a candidate, We submit that he
wrongs, terribly wrongs, Gen. McCul-
Tough, whose sincerity has been ques-
toned by no other protested friend.
AS to the judges injunction to I" Let
the people seek their governor this
year." it is apparent to all, except to
those who will not see, that they are
doing exactly that very thing, and that
in Col. Smith they are finding the OBJ
ject of their search. We heartily agree
with the judge in his closing sentence,
in which he says: "Vox populi, vox
Del, is true and grand when the PEG.
pie awake to their duty" He can be
assured that they are already awake,
and IN giving utterance to their choice
they are not reproducing the sounds of
his Observation-Disclosures Journal.
