The Liberty men oftbis Territory intended (o organize ond mnke a Liberty noniination for Delégate to Congress. We 'learn from the Citizen that a Convention was held, but only twelve days before election, and consequently there was not aufficient time to circuíate the knowledffe of the proceedings of the Convention. Consequent ly but few Liberty votes were cast. Our friends must try ;i train, and take time bv the forelock. At Geneva, 25 votes were given for the Liberty candidate, nnd at Delavnn, a majority of all the votes cat-t were for the Liberty party. OjT" Nothing is more disastrous thon for a Liberty man to vote for the candidales of other pames. It shows that he is not half in enmest. He shculd vote the whole Liberty licket, in every case, unless there are good reosons why the candidates should not be 6upported; and then, if he is a consistent man, he will not fill ihe blanks with the names of proslavery candidate, but with those who are worthy of his euffroge.Uj2" The Essex Cotmty Liberty Convention, (Mass.) Jately ndopted the following: Whereas, We nre seeking nfiter truthi and as Truth is seen more clearly.and oompreheiid more portee tly when domg buttle with Error; therefore, Resolved, That we offer to meet both VVIiips nnd Democrats in Free Diseussion befnro tlie people: - we will 'urn out mnn against man, and candidüte againat candidate; and meet tbemat nny suilable time and place, preferred by them. 05= Liberty men should remerober that their ncglect to go to the polls punctually ia proclaimed by opposers as evidence that the cause ie declining. Besides, liow enn you have ihe faoe to ask others to vote the Liberty ticket when you neglect to vote for it yourself ? fij Last week we enumerafed eight specifications agaiiwt Mr. Howard why he should not be elected. The State Journal say two of them are plump lies." The truth of the other six then, is admittod, is it?
