. the Wushingtion Union.
Steady Progress of Abolition and Kow-
Notliingism.
Thrrr is something audacious and defiant
in the triumphant march of Abolitionism since
it his gathered the new secret party under its
black and pestilential banner. It moves
plong with the majestic tread ofaconquerer.
jt seems to exult, for the first time, in the
prospect
of success of its accursed plans.—
for years it has struggled against mighty
o.lds. At one time it had the Church against
it; then the press took up the assault; then
,!,c politicians; and at last it had become
as odious in the North as it was hated
and feared in the South. The population
of our great cities responded to no sen
timent more enthusiastically than that which
held up to scorn these enemies of the Con
stitution. They were treated as outlaws,
and their assemblages of whites and blacks
were always sure to provoke the utmost ex
citement. At no lime were the people of the
South so secure in their homes, so strong in
their rights, so fraternally united with the
northern people. But the, abolitionists did
not rest quiet. They persevered with stub
bornness and zeal, and now at last they re
joice with exceeding joy over the promise of
routing victory. They feel that they have
secured an ally more formidable than any
that has heretofore enlisted in their ranks.
Weilding with consummate tart the anii-
fl'ivery prejudices of (he North, an.! taking
it fvaiitao*. of the nr conflicts of opin
ion in Congress, whenever the rights of the
States have been sought to lie invaded by
cunning lawyers, and sectional leaders, they
have finally contrived to bring under their
influence a sentiment which is as hostile to
tin ir a .sinned idea of the perfect equality
of the races of man, as that idea, as hypo
critically advocated and presented by them,
is hostile to ali the understood and rovenant-
nl obligations between the citizens and
Stat.s of our bVssed Union. Now, for the
first time, we sav, does abolition rear its hor
rid front in stern and confident contempt of
all the fears of the patriotic citizen. Now
does it hurl its “ fire-brands, arrows, and
death” among those it has so long and so
recklessly assailed. State after State has
presented the spectacle of a congregation of
all the isms tinder the lead of ablitionism.—
We have alreadv counted Ohio, Pensylvania,
Illinois, lndi ina. Massachusetts, Maine, A er-
lttotit. lilt ode Island, Connecticut, New Jer
sey, Michigan. Iowa, and New Hampshire.
Kverv dav presents now evidences of the
magnitude of this fusion. There has as yet
been no exception to it in the North. No
where Ins the new party, which arrogates to
iNeli the name oj “American,’? been cffec-
fn! to stop the advance of this monstrous
anti-American and anti-Union crusade.—
F.vervwher'* h is it yielded before it. Kvery-
wliere li is it sold out for a price, until at the
inomen! we speak there is scarcely a consider
able hod v of Know Nothings in any free State
that dare honestly to say that they regard
the (’.institution and will honestly carry its
provisions into effect. Over all the mantle
of abolition is spread like a pall. The little
politicians w ho were the first to blow tip this
tempest against the foreigners and the Catho
lics, against Protestants who were adopted
ritiy.cns, and native citizens who were Catho
lics, are unceremoniously ordered to the rear,
having Seward, Chase, (Jiddings, Hale, L.
1). Campbell, \V. F. Johnson, Henry Wil
son, Ac., in the advance as the generals in
command of the great fusion army. We
have deemed'these remarks necessary by
way of introduction to the following resolu
tions just passed by the Know Nothings in
the New yempshire Legisla'ure. They
were introduced by Tappan, the abolition
member of Congress elect, (elected by Know

“The select etininmitte to whom were re
ferred certain resolves of the State ol Maine
•relating to slavery,’ have instructed me to
report tlie following preamble and resolu
tions . •• MASON W. TAPPAN.
“ For the (’ommitee.’
“Whereas, the aggressive policy which
has been pursued by the slave power, and
more especially, the recent wanton abroga
tion of a time-honored compact by which a
vast territory, secured to freedom, has been
opened to the curse of human slavery, evi
dences a deterninalion on the part of that
power, at any and every hazard to acquire
and hold the supremacy in the government
of tlie United States—to transform the boast
ed •land of the free’ into a great slavehold
ing confederacy ; and whereas in the crisis
that is upon us, and in tlie struggle between
tlie oposing principles of liberty and slavery,
it becomes the people of the free States to
take counsel together, that they may act in
concert upon tlie great question which so
nearly concerns the interests of all—the
legislature of New Hampshire, in response
to the communication front her sister Slate of
Maine, deems it her duty to put forth the
following declaration ot principles: there
fore,
“ Resolved In/ the Senate and /louse <f Jler>-
r, sintatives in general court convened, as fol-
tive-slave bill, or its essential modification;
and
“ 4. The protection of the people of the
Territories from the unlawful invasion of
slavery propagandists.
“And we hereby request our senators and
representatives in Congress to nse their
most strenuous exertions to have these prin
ciples imbodied in these resolutions carried
“ Resolved’, That the governor be requested
to forward a copy of these resolves to each
of our senators and representatives In Con
gress, and to the Governors of each State,
with a request that the resolves he laid be
fore the Legislature thereof.”
The National Ad ministration.
President Pierce, a little while before his
nomination, declared in a speech, these po
litic words—“ No North, no South, no Last,
no West, as a section, but a faithful main-
tainance of the common bond of Union, in
accordance with the Constitution.”
llis whole administration has been a faith
ful continued action upon this doctrine; for
words are not so much of themselves, unless
made vital by a life devoted to them.
The Costitutional rights of the South have
been fearlessly maintained by Franklin
Pierce, and the Presidential Chair of the
American Uniou will never be filled by a
more true and reliable man to us.
Gov. Troup, one of the ablest, truest, most
patriotic Georgians, wrote thus on the last
1th of July.
“ We see with different eyes, or I would
lie amazed at the opposition to the present
administration, especially in the Southern |Jrmn*$he text
country- The present is in truth the least
exceptionable of all rite administrations we.
hare rnr had. Gen. Washington's, Mr. Jef
ferson’s and Polk’s not excepted.”
Does there live a man who thinks that ev
ery pulsation of Geo. M. Troup, the Gover
nor who said of the Federal Government—
“the argument is ended, let us stand by our
arms,” heats not for the honor, the wcllfare
of Georgia? Fellow-countrymen of tho
South, while yon hear the distant rustle of
the abolition tornado, pause before you strike
down the men of our safety.
Who shall fill his place ? Gan a Know
Nothing give yon security ? The most con
servative of Northern K. N’s.—those in
New York city—as the Courier & Enquirer,
are howling in coneert with abolitionists, say
they intend to act with them, to repeal the
Nebraska-Kansas Bill. Of the 41 Northern
votes in the House of Representations—we
candidly believe that there are nett two Know
Nothing votes who will maintain tlie Rights
of the South upon this question even at the
expense of a dissolution of the Union.
C5T By Reques t, we repu blish this week

gress. Both documents cannot be too dften

acquitted themselves with great credit, as is
always confidently expected, at the Universi-
For the Southern Banner.
Danielsville, Ga., July 27,1855.
Messrs. Editor^ —It is seldom that I
write an article upon politics, but I have con
cluded to spend » few leisure moments in
giving you a short account of the discus
sion which took place here -to-day, by C.
Peeples, Esq., of your place, and Col T W
Thomas, of Elberton. Both these men are
gentlemen in the full acceptation of the term
—both honest, honorable, high-minded men,
and in a contest be*\vpen snch men, good
manners nor good bre-.Jing ,*ver suffer,
however hot it may wax. Col. Thoma^is
one of the most talented young men in the
Stats, and is already one of the finest popu
lar speakers in Georgia, and is destined,,
some day, to be ore of her great men.
It had been advertised in all the public
places in the county, for some time, that Mr.
Peeples would make a Know Nothing speech
at this place to-day, and, after drumming
around a good deal, a’very respectable crowd
was got together; but it was not one of those
‘ enthusiastic meetings” you occasionally
hear of. A number of. the dem tcrats of the
county had invited Col. Thomas to be pre
sent and reply 1o Mr. Peeples; but it was
not known positively, until he made his ap
pearance this morning, that he would be here,
therefore the croxyd was much less than it
otherwise would have been; but, upon the
whole, I think two-thirds of the crowd were
Anti-Know Nothing. The speakers agreed
among themselves, that Mr. Peeples should
spjgjc one hour, Col. Thomas one hour and
a half, anff Mr. Peeples to follow, in a re
joinder of half an hour. The preliminaries
being arranged, Mr. Peeples spoke earnest
ly, and I might say sometimes eloquently, in
support of the principles of his party, and in
advocating the claims of Judge Andrews, for
Governor, for an hour. I shall not attempt
to follow this gentleman in his zig-zag course
through the greater part of his speech—suf
fice it to say, that it was a total failure, so
far as argument was concerned. I expect it
was about a» good a speech as could have
been made on his side of the question; but
almost every one was disappointed—even
ty. The following is the Programme:
B. L. Jones, Atlanta, Ga.; History—Ver- I the Know Nothings here, at least many of
phtn-k.
W. W. Belcher, Abbeville Dist. S.C.;
Liberty and Revolutions—The Milford Rard.
A. D. Burns, Chattooga county, Ga; Cal
ifornia and New Mexico—McDowell.
A. Parrott, Hancock county, Ga.; Reply
to Mr. Corry’s Attack on his character—
Grattan.
K. A. Quartennan, Liberty eo. Ga.; Ver-
res Denounced.—Cicero.
Punic Faith.
Some of the Greek nations were notorious
for not keeping their plighted faith, and the'
them, admitted that it was a failure. Mr.
Peeples is a talented matt and a good lawyer,
huthc is on the wrong track, and it will give
him trouble to get the game up over here; it
was evidently a drag, and an up-hill business
to-day. Qne half of his speech was in praise
of the Philadelphia platform, and tli% Know
candidate for Governor. (Ie said it was the
best platform tfiat ever had been erected by
any partythat the Macon Council had in-
W. A. McTyer, Eufaula, Ala; Matrimony corporated the Georgia platform into it, which
made it the best platform in the world ; and
—“ u:
attempt an explanation—ho was silent as the
dead upon the subject; such an absurdity
conldnotbe explained upon any known prin
ciple of philosophy, but these Know Noth
ings may have some pew and hidden rule,
by Which it can be explained—perhaps it can
be done by the aid of the “ dark lantern.”
No one can properly appreciate this speech.
Unless he had heard it. Mr. Peeples’ rejoin
der was in keeping with his first speech—it
was without point, and less of argument.—
I have but one word more. When the first
Monday in October is past, and the battle is
over, and the smoke has cleared away from
the field, looking out from your sanctum, you
may see the Banner of Democracy still float
ing in the breeze, over old Madison, in tri
umph. A DEMOCRAT.
School Exhibition.
We were of the uumber of gratified spec
tators ot Mr. Scudder’s Academy,last Friday
The scholars acquitted themselves in a man
ner highly creditable to themselves and their
worthy preceptor. A correspondent has
kindly handed us the following:
• [coMMUicvrr.n.]
Messrs. Editors:—On Friday last, 27th
inst., I, with a number of others—lovers of
learning—repaired to the school-room of Mr.
Scudder, who has charge of the preparatory
depnrtnf’ent at this place, for the purpose of
witnessing the public exercises of that schoo’.
By 91 o’clock, A. M. a large and respectable
audienceof heautyand intelligence wasassem-
bled,-‘artd the speaking commenced. As the
exercises pro cog d§d v t]jj},^ro-declaiupnts,
the pleasure with which all present evidently
regarded their efforts, and the smile of grat
ification which lit up the countenances of
their friends and iclatives in particular, re
minded us involuntarily that this was the
ushering in of Commencement. We might
point out particular excellencies which oc
curred to ns in the performance of different
speakers, but we forbear, since it might
seem invidious to make distinctions, where
all deserved so well. Two of the smaller
scholars, whose manly delivery and engag
ing manner, won for them the partiality of
the audience, wore recalled to the stage.—
We felt that there were others who merited
that compliment, anil to whom we would
gladly have listened again, had it not been
for fear of taxing them and their worthy pre
ceptor. They all certainly acquitted them
selves with much credit, and showed that
Mr. S. had not been remiss in the discharge
of his obligations to their parents. Indeed,
we would recommend those who have sons
to educate liberally, to send them to Mr.
Scudder if thy wish a solid foundation upon
which to rear the superstructure.

Joseph X. I’ou, D. S. Talbot county ; Wallace has always been said, till of late, was the
American lias been synonymous with honor,
but we believe the conduct of a Know Noilt-
ing Council in Washington City has not
tended to sustain this refutation.
It seems that Col. Savage, a Democratic
candidate for Congress in Tennessee, has
been denouncing tlie “Secret Order,” where
upon Gen. Cullura, his opponent, a Know
Nothing, charges him with having been in
the order. Both Gen. C. and Col. S. denied
at first, belonging to the order; for though
Gen. C. now owns he :s a member, be knew
he had sworn to deny *. (Jen. Cullum now
produces a certifcate from a Mr. Clark,
President of the Lodge in Washington, say
ing that Mr. C. had been initiated the fjrst of
the year, and that the Council instructs him
to make this exposure. Leaving out the
course of Col. S., when Gen. Cullum took
the oath in Washington, lie, as also the
President of the Lodge, and all the other
members, swore with all the sacred ness of an
oath, never to reveal the name of a [member,
under any circumstaxces.” And yet, to
defeat a man who now denounces tjiem, they
have officially published that he did join them.
People of Georgia, look at this plainly.—
They have sworn not to do a certain thing
under any circumstances, and yet they hare
done it. Is there but one concJu^isn ? Is
there net a solemn oath violated ? Can
you place confidence in an organization which
entices you in under specious pretences, and
