Fote against tbt K* W* Nominee* and

Is it not singular, that an association
should hare gained any ground South, with
such oaths as men hare to take in K. N.
Lodge*. It is perhaps the old principle of
the fox, who got his tail cut off, and adrised
all others to do the same { olhtrwire, now can
a man go to his neighbor, and with specious
words, get him to swear away his ,nd,vtdu-
ality as a man, hi. freedom of action so dear
to an American, in exchange for tho dicta-
tion of a majority of a secret Lodge of schem
ing small politicians. They swear to volt
for the nominee, and if they eannnot conscien
tiously do to, they are not to rote against Atm.
If they fail in this, they are branded at per
jured men. Those who have been in the
Lodges, and left them, have so declared.—
Does any one one deny it 1 No matter what
light you may afterwards have, what irresis
tible argument may be presented to the mind,
how false, treacherous, unsound the nomi
nee, the K. N. who votes against him, has
been so pronounced by one of theii own
Order. In thit district, a Know Nothing
orator, regarded as a High Officer among
them, fearing for the trembling ranks of Sam,
said to them in the agony of his despair,
“ Remember, if you vote for Cobb, you arc
perjured men. This is not the remark of an
'outsider—but the way their own officers
talk to them.

The New York Herald givc3 an account
of an immense meeting of 10,000 persons

Got. Cobb and Tammany Society*
The following letteT from Gov. Cobb, to
Col. Jones, of Covington, Ga., will put at
rest the charge that Gov. Cobb favors secret
political organisations; or that he is a mem
ber of such a society. As an honorary mem
ber of Tammany socioty, he has attended one
of its meetings. Mere social and charitable
societies of this character exist throughout
the country, and our public men are constant
ly being invited to enrol their names as hon
orary members; but it will be difficult to In
duce the people to believe that a society
which numbered among its honorary mem
bers, such names as Thomas Jefferson, An
drew Jackson and Janies K. Polk, is a se
cret political organization, of the character
of the Know Nothings, whose horrible oaths
and obligations we have heretofore exposed
in our columns.
Athens, July 9th, 1855.
Dear Sir.—By the last mail, I received
your letter of the 5th inst., in which you say,
In a discussion which took place at Con
yers, in this county, on the 4th inst., Mr,
W. W. Clark, of this place, used your name
as sanctioning secret political organizations.
He stated, as a fact, that you belonged to a
secret political organization in New York
to wit: the Tammany Hall Democratic Club.
I presume that Mr. Clark referred to Tam
many Society, and that his charge is based
upon the reports he has seen in the newspa
pers. The error into which he has fallen, is
in reference to »hc character and purposes of
Tammany Society. The effort to justify the
secret political organizations of the Know’
Nothings, by comparing them to Tammany

From all sections we have intelligence of
men who have been entraped into the dark
lantern order, leaving it by scores. A cor-
respondent of the Constitutionalist, writing
from Linconville, Ga., says a number have
loft the lodge in that place, and denounce it
publicly. We give below an account of
some of tho stampedes, and will continue
them next week:
Withdrawals from the Know Nothings.
—We are gratified to state that several mem
bers of the Know Nothing or “American
Party,” have this week withdrawn from the
Lodge at this place. They became con
vinced by actual observation, that the princi
pics of the order arc wrong—that its work
ings are corrupt and tyrannical—that it
abridges the personal liberty of the citizen,
and endangers the purity and stability of our
government. They have acted the part of
good citizens, in thus abandoning a party
whose success is inconsistent with the exis
tence of a free republican government.
We trust that tnanv more will follow the
good example.
We learn that these withdrawals aTe some
12 or 15 in number. Eleven of the names
were announced for withdrawal at tho meet
ing last Tuesday, to ratify the proceedings

The Columbus Tima says, a private letter
under date of June 30th, says: “At this
Fashionable Intelligence—A
Wedding.
We yesterday copied an item
the Richmond, (Va. Dispatch of the-20th
inst. giving what was supposed to fab a
fabulous account of a monster wedding
which was to come off during the month
at the St. Nicholas Hotel. But notwith
standing the general incredulity with
which the report was received, we learn
that it is substantially correct, and that
the party will arrive in this city bn or
about the 12th inst. " /-V
This will certainly be the most mag
nificent affair of the kind ever gotten up
in this country, and will no doubt create
an immense excitement, especially in
fashionable circles, during the stay of
the party in the city.
Tne bridegroom, who is a Louisiana
mgar planter, named Mitchell, and re
ported to be very wealthy, is now en
route for New York, accompanied by
two hundred pairs of young ladies and
gentlemen, who take part in the wedding
exereises. On their arrival they are to
put up at the St. Nicholas Hotel, the ex
clusive use of which has been hired for
the occasion, for the sum of two thousand
dollars per day, the festivities to contin
ue four days. The bride is understood
to be the daughter of Judge Conclin
formerly Judge of the Northern district
of the State of New York, but more re
cently appointed Minister to Mexico
and whose successor to the first named
post is Judge Hall, formerly Postmaster
General.
The marriage ceremonies are to take
place at the St. Nicholas, and we under
stand that two thousand invitations
place we have a council of Know Nothings,
cracked up for its numbers. About the 23d,
six of the members applied for dismissal
cards. Five were granted; one was refused.
It was soon found out that the gentleman re
tained, was joined by ten more members, and
such was the dismay of the Brotherhood,
that they took the responsibility of refusing
dismissals to all the members. The father 4 .

Mr. Walsh whose long residenoe at
Paris and close connection with the best
informed circles of the city makes his
opinion of-value, is not a believer in the
believed hostility of the French Emperor
to the United States. In a late letter he
says:
In some editorial articles I noticed the
phrase, ‘though the Emperor Louis Na
poleon does hate the United States;’ in
another you speak of his animosity; and
in a very good Tetter from an occasional
correspondent of the National Intelli
gencer, it affirms that it would be quite
ready, if at all provoked, to wage war on
our Republic by military expeditions to
our coasts. These opinions are, I think
absolutely erroueous; as they tend to
produce impressions in our country which
excite ill humor and a spirit of defiance,
it seems to me a sort of duty to protest
against them. In the first place those
who most frequently approach and have
long personally known the Emperor, de
cide that hate, rancor, any vindictive
passion or fierce antipathy, are foreign to
iiis nature and habitual mood. They
have directly informed me, from year to
year, since his elevation, that his sent!
inents towards American people are kind
friendly, respectful; though he may not
admire American political and social in
stitutions in the abstract, he knows that
none other could Buit or exist in the
United States; he has treated with uni
form courtesy and favor our diplomatic
representatives and all their countrymen
who have been brought within his notice.
The deportment of his Empress, his
Ministry, and his household has been the
same; generally, the strain and tone of
the French journals are far from being
hostile or derogetory. Touching war
with the United States, no one in France,
probably, is or can be, more sensible of
the folly and danger of such an extreme,
than the Emperor, whose strength lies
in his diffuse popularity and au ample
public revenue. The loss of hundreds

and wishes. We. see that Illinois has gone
again.t the Prohioitionists by 15,000 ma
jority. In Michigan, the law is practically a
nullity. In Maine, its birth-place, it has been
decided that cases under this law must go to
a jury, and they will never convict. In
Boston, a legal objection rises up, as fast as
one is put down. A great part of the people
of New Y’ork are outraged, and ti e law as,
contemplated, cannot be enforced. Such
acts of legislation scent impolitic and un
called for.

that the Athens Guards were on parade.—

^ PILLS.
FOB ALL THE PUBF0SES OF A
FAMILY PHYSIC,
TitttttK ha* long existed a public demand fbr OB
effective purgative pill which could be relied on a.
sure and perfectly safe in its operation. This baa
been prepared to meet that demand, and an extort
sivc trial of it* virtues has conclusively shown with
what success if accomplishes the}. ,rjM,sc designed
It is easv to make, a physical fill, but not easy to
make the best of all — one which should hav*
none of the objections, but all the adr Ullages, of
every other. This htt* been attcinptca here, and
with whut success we would respectfully submit to
the public decision. It ha* licett unfortunate for
the patient hitherto that almost every purgative,
medicine is acrimonious uttd irritating to the bow
els. This is tioL Many of them produce so much
griping pain and revulsion in the system as to more
than counterbalance the gtH»d # L>be derived front
them. Titesc fills produce no irritation or paitt,
miles* it ctise from a previously existing obstruc
tion or derangement iu the bowels. Being purely
vegetable, no harm can :-ri«c from their use tn any
juantitv ; but it is lietter that any medicine should
* taken judiciously. Mimite directions for their
.tse in the several diseases to which they are ap.
dicable are given on the 1h>x. Among tbo Com-
ilaints which have Item speetlily cured by them, W
nav mention liver Complaint, itt it* yariou*fonn*
f Jaundice, Indigestion, Languor and 1ms of Ap-
,eti;e, l.istlcssne-.*. Irritability, Biliott* llradacbr, '
!lil-'(,us Fever, Fever :o,d Ague, Fain in the Sidn
tnd Loins; for, in truth, all these are hut tbo con- _
vpiiucucf of disc tint'd actitm in tlio liYff. Al l&
.perient, tlo-v aff<>rd prompt r,nd sure relief in Cos
tive:.c- s, Tiles. Colic, llvscntcry, Humor*, Scrtf-
ala and Scurvy, Colds with soreness of the body.
Fleers and impurity of the blond; in abort, any
and every case where a purgative is required. , .
Thev have also produced some singularly eue*
crashi! cures in Uheumxtisra, Gout. Dropsy, (IraveL
Erysipelas, palpitation of tlie Heart, Pains in the
Back, Stomach, and Side. They should be freely
taken iu the spring of the year, to purify the blood
and prepare the system for the change of icatons.
An occasional dose stiruiibttcs the stomach and
bowel* into healthy action, and restore* the appe
tite and vigor They purify the blood, and, by their
stimulant action on the circulatory system, rent)
.ate the strength of the body, anB restore the
wasted or *M d energies of tint whole ergariittn.
Hence an occasional dose is advautnguous, even
though no serious der-.-iigenicnt exists; but un
necessary dosing should never be earned too far,
as every purgative medicine reduces tbe strength,
when taken to excccs. The thousand esses in which
a physic is required cannot be enumerated here, but
they suggest themselves to the reason of every
•tody; and it is confidently believed this pill will
answer a better purpose then any thing which has
hitherto been available to mankind. When their
virtues are once known, the public will no longer
loubt what remedy to employ when in need of S
cathartic medicine. '
