The Sentinel is most decidedly mistaken.

We were among the lookers on at the Coalition of May 31,1849, and took notes of the sayings and doings on that memorable occasion not omitting what was said in reference to Judge Williams. The facts are these; On coming to the business of a State ticket, Mr. Barber announced that the old candidates had declined aud the coast was clear for a new ticket. Mr. Henry inquired wdiether Judge AVii.i.iams had been consulted 1 Mr.

Barber said he had been, but that de declined. Mr. Poland (Joseph) said he had seen a letter from wdiich he inferred that Judge W. would not decline if nomina ted. Mr.

Kasson (Charles, of Burlington said that lllis could not possibly be true; he had seen a letter from Ihe Judge, in which he Judge Williams) said posi TIVF.t.Y nn could not consent to hun as a candidate of the. party. Mr. Poland explained that the letter he alluded lo was not from Judge Wil liams. Such were the facts, as brought out in theaalilion convention.

Thus you see an effort to strengthen themselves in the Senaie by a mm coalition, of coalitionists and old liners, in Chittenden county. And tricks of this kind will also be. atiempted in towns indeed we have been apprized that efforts were commenced even last autumn, and have been continued with more or less activiiy up to this time, ro secure anti-whig representatives in the close towns, Now nil we have to say is, let the whigs do their whole duty, promptly and efficiently in respect to the legislature.

In accordance with a plnn I lint had been under contemplation for two years past, definitely settled at the lust Commencement, the Associated Alumni of Middlebury College this year welcomed the renin) ol the fiftieth anniver sary of the founding of their Alma Mas ter, with special exercises and festivities in honor of the occasion. Early in the season, circulars were sent, on behalf nl the Committee of Arrangements for the Jubilee, to all living graduates of the College whose residences were known, inviting them to he present at this anniversary. The response to these invitations was hearty, and aluit unanimou and the past week will hereafter be le-mcmbered as a continued series of red letter days in the calendar of our venerated institution.

For several days previous to the lime of Commencement, old familiar faces, lsec-n here before for years, again began to appear in our streets, and a constantly increasing tide of visitors mostly of those who had temporarily resided ith us in other days came, in through every channel of public conveyance until Wednesday Inst, the day of the Annual Commencement. The number in attendance exceeded all expectations. The public houses were filled to overflowing, notwithstanding the hospitality of onr citizens had provided fur all their private residences could accommodate. The Baccalaureate Sermon was preached by President L-uiareeoh Sunday, the 18th and ivas pronounced, by all who heard it, a discourse of marked ability, fitness, and force, such as has been very rarely if ever equalled on such an occasion. As a specimen of pulpit eloquence, it is mentioned in the highest terms of approbation and admiration, by those who are entitled to give a final judgment in such matters.

The Anniversary of the Philomathe-sian Society was held on Tuesday afternoon, commencing at 2 o'clock. The procession of acting and honorary members, which moved from the College to the Congregational Church where the anniversary was held was lung and imposing. The Annual Address was delivered by Rev. Truman M. Post, on the subject of Genius, which was illustrated with a power and originality of discourse that taught by example, while only aiming at precept.

To give an adequate account of this production, or even to describe the interest and effect which attended its delivery, is more than we shall attempt, trusting that as a classic composition which the most devoted champion ol American literature need not be ashamed toproduce as showing what men of letters among us can do it will soon be given to the public in a complete and permanent form. At 4 o'clock, on the same day, Rev. Edwin D. of New York City, the Philadelphia!) Society, in his u-ual impressive manner. The address was religious in its character, and its lessons of benevolence and devotion were suited to the objects of the Society.

In the evening, the usual Prize Speaking look place fmir speakers from each of the Ihree lower classes competing for the Prizes proposed by the late Mr. Parker, (of Paris,) paid from 'the of a fund with which the College was endowed by him for that purpose.

If there is no mistake in the following, the New York Evening Post does not go with the balance of the Free Soil "press in denouncing the Texas bill, but earnestly hopes it will not fail in the House. We cut the extract from the editorial columns of that paper of Friday The only way in which the House can treat the Texas bill, consistently with regard to its own character, is to lay out of sight the menaces of Texas, and to consider the question precisely as if no bluster had been uttered; that is to say, deliberately, at its own leisure, and with a single view" to what is just between New Mexico and Texas.

Whatever the decision of the House may be, we may be sure that it will be peaceably acquiesced in. We do not know what the chances of the bill may be in the House, but we earnestly hope that il will not fail in its present shape. AV'o trust too, the menaces of Texas will be totally disregarded, as well as the menaces nf the whole blustering, disunion crew at ihe South. But theso menaces should not prevent Congress from doing right, from adopting and pursuing a course of conciliation and compromise. AVe observe that the President's message meets with the same species of opposition, that did Gen.

Jackson's from the nullifies. In fact it is the same-school of politicians in the one case as in the other, that are engaged in the crusade a-gainst the Union, and we rejoice that they have been met, as they have been by President Fillmore, in a spirit of conciliation, but with a firm and determined purpose to-faithfully execute the laws, and lo preserve-the rights of the United Slates inviolate.

Important Seizures 40 Vessels tied up 1 The Chicago Journal of the 1st gives the following account of numerous seizures of vessels engaged in the lumber trade on the upper lakes. The Journal says The Government for the past few days, have done a Land ofiice in this region. Forty-six yes-els' engaged in the lumber trade between Milwaukee, Chicago, and other points upon this and the oilier side of the Lake, have been seized by the S. Officers, most of which have been bonded. The officers are now here awaiting the arrival of the balance of the fleet.

It is supposed the vessels engaged' simply in the carrying trade will be released, but such as are owned by the proprietors mills eated on, or supplied from land belonging to the government, will be forfeited to it. 2000 of the saw-logs seized a short lime since at Grand River, were sold last week at auction, bringing on an average one shilling each. This sum nets Ihe government an amount equal to the price for which the land can be entered. The most efficient steps have been taken to protect the public lands from depredations of this nature, and we think with a very fair prospect of success. DR.

Oh! brothers met once more, Too soon to part again Before wo go let' pour, To our mother's love, one slraln.

Brothers, where'er we've been, Thy fame whs with us lliere As the nurse of noble men, The guide to troth and prayer. In the Senate Hall their voice Hath tilled the nation's ear And made the free rejoice, And the tyrant quake with fear. Where justice holds her scale, And blindly hears each prayer Within her highest pale, Thy sonssit honored there. Where the anel of tho grave. His shaft points at the heart, They show Iheir power to save, And turn aside the dart.

Where'er Ihe Poet's band Hath swept the. trancing lyre, Thy sons have graced the hand, And touched iis chords with fire. Where tho cross its triumphs wins, And love to God and man, Eedeeim the world from sin Thy sons still lead tho van They lift that banner high In die Islands of (lie sea; And 'nealh Ihe Indian sky, They plant the Gospel tree. Then honor to thy name. Our mother loved and dear We cherish still thy fame; AVe leave thee with a tear.

His subject was the relation between past and present civilization, from which were deduced bright hopes for the future. The closing part of the address was a truly eloquent and patriotic appeal in behalf of the. Union, on whie'1 he deemed the future of our race so intimately to depend. We hope this address ill be published. In the evening, the President's Levee was attended by great numbers of the Alumni and of the citizens of our village, and others, forming a happy reunion," for a brief while, that will not, doubtless, soon be forgotten.

Anniversary of the Associated Alumni. The special exercises of the Semi-Centennial Anniversaiy the Jubilee proper were held on Thursday. The procession moved from the Colleges at about li? o'clock. and on reaching the Congregational Church which was speedily filled in every part (in-eluding the porch)lo its utmost capacity the exercises commenced with prayer by the Rev. Frasceway R.

Cossitt, D. President of Cumberland College, Kentucky. A Salutatory address, by l'ev. Bbnjamix Labaree, D. President of the College, followed.

Of the propriety, grace, and eloquence of this Introductory oralion, it is impossible to give an adequate idea by any mere synopsis. Its effect was electric, and, for the first time our knowledge, at a literary festival within the walls of that house, called forth spontaneous and deaf ening applause. The first manifestation of rliis, sort was elicited by a very happy allusion to Professor Hough, who sat upon the stage; and it was renewed, widi equal heartiness, by a similar reference lo the ven erable Dr. Bates, die former president, who was also present. An address, on the Relations of the Col lege to the Religious Interests of Soeietv was then delivered by Rev.

Joshua Bates, D. occupying something more than an hour. It was an able, systematic, and beau- ifully wriiten discourse, strongly marked by tin) intellectual vior. for which iis author is celebrated. It contained many touchirmaml easing reminiscences of funncr days, and particularly of the twenty-one.

years during which the venerable speaker was at the head of the college. The closing farewell was a strain of pathetic eloquence such as we never heard, on anv other occasion. There was scarcely a dry eye in the whole assembly, du ring that parting apostrophe lo the "winding Otter," to the valleys.the mountains.tho walls of tho church, where he had so often stood, the college halls, to the living in onr streets, and to the sacred ones sleeping in ihe ''citr of tho dead." We hope Ihe sad presenti ment in those closing remarks may prove false, and that many years may yet be added to a life so useful and honored. Rev. John IIoloii, D.

next pro nouneed a Eulogy on Deceased Alumni of the College, occupying throe hours, and, by the eloquence and richness of his discourse, keeping up an intense interest to tho last Of the Clergymen eulogised, were Walter Crispin, Timothy Harris, Chester Wright, Caleb Burge, Joseph W.

Of the great good ta-le, propriety, and candor of all theso eulogies, it is useless lo speak, no less to those who heard them, than to those who, though absent, know their author. Without anything exaggerated or fulsome, each portrait self. The Bar of the Alumni retained for ihe coIIotp, we expect lo get our ease.
