is the title of a new Liberty paper, just commenced at Montpelier, Vermont. It is published every Saturday, by J. Poland, and edited by J. C. Aspinwall. Its motto is "Give me Liberty or give me Death." Its columns give evidence of talent and energy, and we doubt not that the paper will be an efficient helper in the good cause. There are now two Liberty papers in Vermont, the Freeman and the Voice of Freedom, the latter of which is published at Brandon, Vermont, some years ago, dared to cast her electoral vote for William Wirt--is there not still too much virtue in her Green Mountain boys to permit her giving her vote for the duelist and slaveholder of Ashland? In 1844 she should give her vote for Birney the just. Will she not? What say you, brothers Aspinwall, Holcomb and Brown? Why should she not?--Christian Freeman.
There is no reason why she should not. Vermont will answer these questions next fall.
