Timely Warning: to Free Sollcrs.

was intended by the leaders to miko litis i on

Vermont and bo these coalition democrats (ali
as free soil democrats, nlrns fj-frec-soil demo

So, nwst evidently, Iicre was a Democratic
convention of the co.ilil.ion stripe. It was ndetl
by the very men who last ydir united with the
Free Soil parly to overthrow the Whigs of Miib
f aclmsotts, and who, for the sako of accomplish
ing their purpose, made loud professions of de
votion to liberty and irecsoilism. Now these
gentlemen had to miko a National Platform, and
elect delegates to the National Convention.

Another Coaliticmlst in a Fix.
A writer in the last Freeman, hailing from
Worcetcr und signing himself " B." is down
upon the Whigs on State Reform, and is ospO'
ciallv lii2ubrioii because the report of the
committee on tho subject has not been made
and lest certain names will appear npprmled to
that document when it is published. Hear him :
" But whoso names think you, Mr. Editor, s hill
we sco attached to this report r Shill we see
the names of such men ns lion. Horatio Need
ham, Nathan Smiley, or Royal Hutch ?
" We can well remember the diys when it wrts
Smiley and Worm Now let it be It i m ir.i.n

aro regarded as beeides mere words.
" I ask, shill wo sc such names as thoje men ?
I conclude not, but rather the iiirne of sueh men,
and professing such principle, as Harry Bradley.
Robert Pierpoint, O. P. Chsndler, or Win. He

gentleman in distress, by assuring him that the
names of " Harry Uradley, Robert Pierpoint, O.
P. Chandler or Wit. Ilobard,' will no be found
attached to the report ami that the mme of

Pelf eld and Ueform is thelocofoco cry. Ve
ry well, gentlemen. Now if Itciljitld and Pe-
Uorm ore sn very excellent, we take it the m-in
who origlmled the cry is entitled to tho first hon
ors. Guv. Willi uns started this matter of Pe-
funn in his last message, rftid appointed Pedftld
on the committee. Go it, then, Reformers, for
WILLIAMS, REDFIELD AND REFORM. -Thero
should be no cheating among genuino re
formers.
1 1 ere is n new political dodge, thit i a littl"

PRIVATE PLEDGES.
A correspondent of the Caledonian says:
It la generally known that tho following tpies
tiont wero propounded lo toiue, if not all ol that
ticket hv tlio "old line Uounty Committee im
mediately proceeding their Convention viz:
"Will you support tlin nominees of the nxt
National Convention tor President and Vicu
President F
Do your views coincide with Mr. Peck's in
relation to the Vu Habeas Corpus Act and tho
Fugitive Slavo Law r"
Such, in effect, wero tho questions proposed.
and report s tys that they wcro answered in w i
ting or by friends at the Convention, authorized
to do so, and tint tlio answers were satisfactory
except in one instance, nd tint one, maintaining
the principles of the freesoil platform, tool thrown
ottrttoard.'"
S-i It seems thtt the nominees on the pretend
ed free soil ticket in Caledonia County are pri.
palely pledged lo go for old fashioned locpfoco
ism end agauut the free sailer.
THE FCnGBUY THOVITD.
Th" suspicion which we expressed lastwecki
that a deliberate forgery had been committed in
order t" screen T. P. Redfield from the condem
nation of the old line locofocos of Craftsbttry, is
fully confirmed. In justice to the Patriot, lion
ever, are are bound to state that the evidenet
does not implicate it in the rascality. Tho fol
lowing from tho Irasburgh Gazette, tells the sto
ry: Frm ihe trhoih nntls Anj. W.
More about the " Fix."
The Freeman and some other papers camr
down last eek upon the v atclimnn for an al
Irged gsibling of the Resolutions nf the rafts
bury Democratic Convention. Tn all appear
ances a clear case of iniquity was made nut, but
there aro always two sides to a story. Hear the
fiels.
Rv a resolution of that Convention, a copy of
its proceedings was sent to the Gazette, the Hur
lmgton Sentinel, and the North Star for publica
tion, signed by tho Clnirimn nnd Secretary
Althouuh we felt some degreo of horror at the
gramni-tical errors in the resolutions, we con
cluded to print them as thev were, thit there
might be no appearance ot" garbling, and. as
they were then printer1, they are precisely simi
lar to those of the Watohinan, wronim et litera
tim There were no such com unient words ns
" in May loat" m our copy and probablv none
in tlmee sent to the Sentinel and Star. If there
was ff irhlinc in the case, it Is remarkable that
all the papers but one which published the pro-j
fceedintff. should hivo made the a ine alterations.
Our private opinion as to who wan guilty of
garbling the resolutions, the Star may not r ire
to know, but we rrspi ctfully ailt of that journal
wii.i i 111 a ii uun r
Thus the arcusatione of the Patriot and Frep-1
man against th Watchman uro rebutted, snd '
, , , , , , . . , i
the Ubles lompletely turned. Let the people ,
judge whether the party, and the candidate, that j
..I. ...-.: .. i
have to be bolstered up by forgery, aro worthy of'
their support.
P. S. Tho North Star Bays the resolution'
with the words " in May las " inserted, is genuine
We presume the Star is honest, and, therefore,
that the forgery was committed by tho man who
furnished the copy tn tho Star. Who furnished
to Whig and old line papers a resolution that
point d itt Mr Ptdjield, nnd the same resolution
to the Star, so altered as lo point at Mr. Pobiti'
son ? lie must bo a nice gentleman, admirably
qual fled to belong to both branches of the loco
focracy. Bring him out, Mr. Star. A new, va
riegated luminary of this sort should never be
eclipsed by the old North Star.
Where is Mr. Hctlfleld!
Th" Bellows Falls Standard, n democratic pa
per of tho 1 Id Line stamp, saa:
" Now w e are able to state upon the best au
thority that Ti notiiV P. Heillii III held? tile same
doctrines in regard to tbeennatitutionality of the
Fugitive Slave law, as are exprt'8-.eil m thr Jit

Peck, and if he is an honest man h" will not al

rnfre'v upon their being alile to pnetiue decep
tion np in the enp!e by the use of men's names
as candidates for office, in whose character for
political integrity they have not lost all cuiiti
dence."
But the Patriot nnd Freeman swear trf.y irnrsy.
Are the allied presses all-lie pr-sses into the bar
gain? That is the question.

by enabling the apiarian tu retain his old swarms

ORLEANS COUNTV.
The corrupt and unprincipled bargaining a

he il a Convention and nominated a Ticket and
adjourned to a future day. Tho samo party,
(pretending to entertain no hostility to slavery or
the Fugitive Slavo Law. I met in Convention nt
Irasburgh at the time of the meeting of tho Co
alition party, when both parties agreed upon a
Ticket for "County Officers, agreeably to the
imrnose of tho adjournment of tho previous Old
Line Convention: all tho risult, of course, of
an agreement among the leaders of the two par
ties. This joint meeting resulted in tho adop
tion, with one exception, by the Coalition Con
vention, of tho Ticket previously nominated by
the i Id Liners, which was finally ratified by both
onvention".

What, however, are the facts in regard to thu
revenue? Does not this writer know well, that
since the passage of the bill of ' Iti, wo have con
tracted a foreign debt of ut least a hundred nnl
liun, making, with that contracted under the
omproouse, not less than three hundred millions'
Does ho not know that the amount of interest
now payable abroad requires almost eighteen
million of dollars per annum ? Docs lie not
know that each and every day increases tho a
mounl of bonds and stocks held in Liiropc, and
in a rur(uponduig degree tho sum required to
discharge the luterest ? Does ho not know tint
we ha I i ItSJfi un equal amount of revenue, and
that the laudation of freo trade was then the
simoon ihiw f It gave us surplus revenue, and
doing su, it was then, ns now, held lo be perfect
Iv clear tint protection was a 'fallacy," und yet
docH he not know that iu a few short years tho
government was on its knees to the brokers and
shavers of Kurope, soliciting a loan, and meet
ing every where tvith repulse? Docs he not
know that such is the uiuviublo tendency of
things at the present moment? Does lie not see
that enormous imiortation and largo revenues
must inevitably be followed, as wero those of
Iti Iti, by si. nil importation and smalt revenues,
when the government will again bo in tho mark
et as a borrower? IKtes ho not know that It was
tint protectivo tariff of le'.'e', and tho large and
consbintly growing revenue which it gave, that
annihilated the public debt in ISII Doe he
not know that it was the constantly diminishing
revenue under ihect lprouuse, that built un tho
debt which existed in le Pi ? Doe ho not know
that tho rapid growth of revenue under tho tariff
of I8PJ, enabled us at onco to cease borrowing
and commence the payment of tho debt? Does
ho not know, and see, and feel, that tho present
revenue is duo to a credit, destroyed by lie tow
promise, was reconstructed under the tariff of '4'J,
and that tends now to disappear with every in
crease of debt, precisely a would bo the case
with an individual? If 'lie docs not know thee
things, ave would recommend him to study anew
the facta in relation to the public revenue and
the public debt, beforo ho shall again undertake
lo write of either."
