Jackson, that I tied it conven ient to consider them together; lie was so na tional, so American and so patriotic, he would not, as Maj. l toneisoii has shown you, tm-t a for eigner as’ a stockholder or a director in the Hank of the United State-. While those *.vh > pretend to be li is followers, wound the national linn.*r,hum iliate the national pride and endaiig.*r tie* p i'- lie safety, by appointing foioigners to represent us in foreign count lies, and eiiiploving a ntajoti ty of foreigners to transact the husuie-s ot the Government at home, in the several I tepart lifeiits at Washington. Wiiv is this,- aiiv friends l Why is it so? Do our people wan’ capacity’ for sell-government ? Then tin- long agony is over—this Republic, with all its g!oi.i>>u- past, its present greatness, ami its future hopes, must end. Our Revolution was. the riot of madmen —our Declaration ot Independence a mockery ot Iree (lom—ourliistory a fable, and our liherty a vi *ion. No my friends no! I thank my (led it is so. What ever man cnudnoti fhiseatth, can be done as well by Americans. The follow ers of Luther brought both civil and religious li berty to America. They brought the Bible, Magnacbarta, the common law of England, the; trial by jury, and the elements of civilization and Christianity. On these foundations we placed our trust. We have solved the ptoMem that man is capable of self-governnidiit, and we will soon show to the world that Americans shall rule America. But why is the public patronage giv en to foreigners ? I will not here attempt to an swer the question. I fear “there is something rotten in the State of Denmark.” But I did not come here to abuse tbo President of the United States, or to abuse any one else. I came .more >n sorrow than in anger, and I could weep over Ike humility of my country. The support of the constitution and the defence of the Union, are two of the highest duties im posed by our creed, on the members of our or der. They are the highest duties of evfy A'ttt- Cl)c American ilmon. ! icon, iuvovling the allegiance of the American ! citizens. At the first dawn of disunion and nul { lili cation at the festive board, surrounded bv! gentlemen impre-sed with that policy,(>en..Jaok- 1 j son being asked lor it sentiment gave—“ Oar ; J'\'dtriil l iituit —it attml ttud .shall he jircsere- ! This was the maxim of Getieial Jaeksoti, it; is the maxim of the American party. But it is 1 not the maxim. 1 assure you it is not. my frieti Is, j of the party calling itself Democratic.

In relation to Cowarts appointment the Federal Inion sjys * Mr. Cowart's ofiiee wits not created by Cor. Johnson It was created by Coy. Cobb: Cor. Johnson found it in existence, and continued it at li -s expense to ilni road than was incurred by itis predecessor. 1 * [t was a question, a good while, with the lead ers ol* the I ‘< moeraey, whether they would under take to tote ‘ Cowart and his appointment, thro” the present- campaign or not. Many contended that be and bis appointment would defeat any candidate for the executive chair. ‘T'tiat the par ty emild not justify (iov. Johnson in makinu such in office, and tilling it with such a man. There are vet many prominent supporters of Johnson, who positively refuse to shoulder Cowart — say they cannot and vyiil not carry him through the contest. Vet the Federal I nion. the Governor's Jo.me organ, t ikes the huge loud upon its back, with a resolution that would be commendable in a better cause. A few words about what the Union says of his appointment, and we are done. When <iip. Cobh came into office, everybody r ‘members that. the. Mate Uo <1 was in a most de- plorable condition'. ’That there were numerous : claims of ail kind* against it. That the Road was to l.e rebuilt and |ip|>ed at once, which would reutiirc (he immediate-end constant person* al attention if the Superintendent, leaving him no-time to investigate the multitude of claims that were pressing lor adjustment. In this state of nffairs.Gov. Cobb appointed Col. Samuel Farris, of Walker county, a* Commissioner to examine in to a certain class of claims. Col Karris faithfully executed the tru*t confided to him, and made his report to (lov. Cohh and the Superintendent, long before Cobh went out of office; and with his re port, tt was understood nt the time ended his ser vices and salary as commissioner. When Got. Johnson rami’ into office, he found the State Road almost rebuilt, from one end-to the other—incom plete condition, and amply equipped with engiOM and everything else necessary. All the ofclHtig*- ted claims either paid nr examined and reported by ( ol Farris, who had finished his business and gone home. (iov. Johnson found no such office in existence ins the one Cowart fiohls! Nor was there any ne ci—nity for any Mich office. If there ever was a necessity. it bad ] a-sed long before Gov. Johnson was inaugurated. There is no ipiostion ti nt the office ws mapk expressly for Cowart, and the organ at Milledge viile cannot deny it by the subterfuge that John ■ son found such on office. —Atlanta f)isciptine. • —■ Te.i THFft, Si.'tPi.iciTV. — One of our physicians, making his morning calls, in passing the residence of one of hi* families, saw a piece of crape attach ed to the door knob.
