The Liberty men nnd Independent Democrats having notninated Judge Berry for Governor, ho was nominnted afterwards by the Whigs, Ex-Gov. Colby declining tlie Whig noinination. Thus the three sections unita ng.iinst tbc Old Hunker Democrats. Tho Fremar. says: "The adoption of Judgo B erry by the recent Whig State Convention, and the resolutions put forth by that body, which we publish in anoiher column, have virtually reduced ;he issues of the nest election in this Stnte to the one questiou of Freedom or Slavery. lt is a formaí acceptncp, by the Whigs of ihis State, of the issue teudored by Uie South. As such we rejoice in it ; yea, and we will lejoice. This movement is, on iheir part, a solemn proclamation that, in view of the present rnsis in our Slatc and Nation, all the old questions, which have herotofore divided parties, shall give way to the one paramount purpose of resisting and putting a final ppriod to tho encroachments of Slavery. In this view, we Inü it as one of the great signs of the times- as the harbinger of a ne era in the history of parties. Oftiie triumphant election of Judge Berry wo have no doubt. It is cortain asany contingent event can be."
