CORRESt- CNDEXCX OF TIIF. r.’JlTCHMJ.Y.
Mr. Christy: 1 have olrsirved that
Col. Win. L. Mitchell, of your town,
in several Public Prints.has been warmly
recommended for the Presidency of the
Georgia R. R. &, Banking Go. * After
much anxious reflection, l am constrain
ed by my best judgement, to unite in
what is clearly the general sentiment, at
least, in the interior. I wish it distinct
ly understood, that what I write is pre
dicated upon the universally received
opinion, that Mr. King will.shortly re
tire. Jf he, by any persuasions or in
ducements, would be prevailed upon to
t^|pain in bis present position, he would,
I vJoubt not, secure to himself, not mere-
. ly the approbation, but the gratitude of
all interested parties. If, however, Mr.
King should persist in the execution of
a determination repeatedly and formally
announced, a duty then devolves upon
the Stockholders more weighty and preg
nant than any they have heretofore
been called on to perform.
It cannot be disguised, that appre
hensions are felt, (ill-founded I trust
they will prove) that the retirement of
Mr. King will precipitate an exigency
in the affairs of our Corporation. In
order to quiet all such fears, and main
tain unimpaired the public confidence,
the utmost prudence and circumspection
are demanded in the choice of his suc
cessor. We require a man who can
grasp and comprehend the outlines and
principles, and at the same time, mas
ter, digest and economise the details of
the R. R. system. We must have a
man of integrity, experience, and the
highest grade of capacity. Such an one
| I believe Cel. Mitchell to b:\ Thftt he
is one of the best informed men in the
State—of enlarged and progressive ideas
of Internal Improvement—firm, decided
and independent in his purposes ; of un
surpassed readiness and correctness in
the transaction of all business matters,
. however minuie or complicated, all can
did men who know him, are bound to
concede. Besides, he is no novice in
'Rail Road management. For four
years, lie had the sole direction of the
Wesiern and Atlantic Rail Road, and
tho’ encompassed by embarrassments
that would have appalled ordinary men
without aid from the Treasury and
none but the most meagre resources,
nevertheless, his ability, zeal and energy
were conspicuously displayed. It was
1 undeniably he, who devised and estab
1 • li-hcd the existing plan of government
that Road, which, subsequently ex-
* panded and matured by the liberality
of the Legislature, now coftsii’utes the
ground-work of that magnificent struc
ture—alike the pride and boast of every
Georgian. During Col. Mitchell’s so
journ in the Western counties, in the dis
charge of the functions of his station,
he formed an extensive acquaintance,
and made a highly favorable impres
sion on all who came in contact with
him, whether socially or officially. His
appointment would, in all probability,
be the roe ns of attracting to the Geor
gia R.R. from thatrapidly growing and
teeming region, a vast amount of pat
ronage, which otherwise, it might fail to
receive. Col. Mitchell may justly lay
claim to another advantage, which in my
view, is not duly estimated in the selec
tion of Rail Road Presidents. He is
an accomplished Mathematician. In
early life, he taught that Science in the
University of Georgia, and in a thorough
understanding of its elements, he has
few if any superiors. . A Rail Road be
ing the legitimate offspring of mathe
matical knowledge, sustained and pre
served by it,it should bs regarded, if not
an indispensihle qualification, surely as
. among the chief recommendations of
the head of such a concern, that he him
self is a proficient in that department
of learning. As my advocacy of C61.
Mitchell’s election originates purely and
solely, in a deep solicitude to strengthen
ami advance the welfare and prosperity
of the Georgia Rail Road, 1 may con
scientiously append to this communica
tion the signature of
PUBLIC GOOD.

NOT “ALL TALK.”
How common ii is, amongst the most
of men, to condemn that of which they
know the least 1 Every individual,' to a
greater or less extent,' has been made to
suffer from the evils growing out of this
P time honoredbut unjust practice.
An application of this remark to com
munities'aud parties, is none the less
correct. How does t-iis apply to that
party, which, like Maiiou’s rangers
fall*’upon its opponents, where least ex-
. pected—silent—till the blow is struck
and the batt’e won? Let us see.
Professing to be, and in a manner, in
accordance with that profession, igno
rant’ of at least the object of the Know-
things, how'furious has been tho at
k against them, from, certain quar
ters A Not. content with fairly combat
ing them, numbers of our public louin
alSj^duily'aud weekly,, arc indulging in
find “ our neighbor over the way.” Ac
cording to a doctrine prevailing to as
great an extent, and quite as injurious-
yi &g/' the practice mentioned in the
first fine of this article, that Journal
has tlfe right to abuse to- his heart’s con
tent; but then, prudeuce would suggest,
“ Be sure you’re right,” and then, “Lay
on McDuff.’’ We presume the proprie
tor of said journal has the same relish
for “loaves and fishes,” and the coiidi-
ment popularity, or vice versa, if you
please, that all his fellow-beings are
heir to; therefore, he had better “draw
his strings,” and drive no longer Jehu-
like. A number of his “ persuasion”
have set him that example; or in other
words, are playing that noiseless and
unanr.eying game—mum.
As far from the in-coor workings of
this party, as yourself, or its opponents,
Mr. Editor, we may not undertake its
apology. And we are quite as far from
its abuse, even iu the face of <mr igno
rance and its success. But allowing it
possessed of the principles or object at
tributed by its opponents, opposition to
foreigners—let us see if we cannot safe
ly, wish it success:
Against the insidious wiles of for
eign influences, (I conjure you to be
lieve me, fellow citizens,) the jealousy
of a free people ought lobe constantly
awake. It is one of the most baneful
foes of a Republican Government.”-—
Washington.
“ I hope we may find some means in
future of shielding ourselves from For
eign Influence, in whatever form it may
be attempted. I wish there were
ocean of fire between this and the old
world.”—Jefferson.
“ Foreigu Influence is a Grecian
hor^e to the Republic; we cannot be too
careful to exclude its entrance.—Madi
son.
“ There is an imperative necessity for
reforming the Naturalization Laws,of
the United States.—Daniel Webster.
“ It is high time we should become a
little more Americanized, and instead
cf feeding the paupers and laborers of
England, feed our own; or else, in a
short time by our present policy, we shall
oecome paupers ourselves.”—Andrew
Jackson.
I agree with the father of his Country,
that we should guard with a jealousy be
coming a free people, our institutions,
against the insidious wiles of foreign in
fluence.—Henry day.
“ I most devoutly wish w€ had not a
single foreigner amongst us. exceptjthe
Marquis De Lafayette, who acts on dif
ferent principles from those which gov
ern the rest.—George ’Washington.
If ever the 1 berly of this Republic
-is destroyed, it will be by Roman
priests.—Lafayette.
,l Our naturalization laws are unques
tionably defective, or our alms-houses
would not now be filled with paupers.—
Of the 134,000 paupers in the Unkea
States, 68,000 are foreigners and 66,000
natives. The annals of crime have
swelled us the jails ol Europe have pour
ed their contents into the country, and
the, felon convict, reeking from a murder
in Europe, or who has had the fortune
to escape punishment for any other
crime, easily, gains naturalization here
by spending a part of five years within
the limits of the United States. Our
country has become a Botany Bay, into
which Europe annually discharges her
criminals of every description.’’—John
M. Clayton, U. S. Senator.
Foreigners will render our elections
a curse instead of a blessing.—Martin
Van Buren.
Here, then, is a foundation, upon
which to build, that is solid as the gran
ite itself. Let us build.
In the first place, simply because La
fayette, Pulaski, Warren and others
fought with and for us, it is no argument
that every Frenchman, Pole, Irishman,
Jew,Hottentot and Arabian has the right
to a home amongst us—and especially,
to the exclusion—at any rate prefer
ence over our own native bom sons.—
According to our practice, as a nation,
we do hot know that rule which would
feed a whole nation or even family, be
cause one of its members has helped us
fight our battles. A son of one of Amer
ica’s most thrilling orators—he who
roused the indignation of Virginia free
men—aye, the freemen of his whole coun
try—against oppression, died in poverty
aud obscurity. America honors the
man, and not his household or liis breth
ren. If it were otherwise, the rule
would hold equally good, in casting off
and forever closing our doors to the
Englishman—the Irishman—the Hes
sian— all who had representatives a-
mongst our enemies.. But yon, Mr. Edi
tor, have done* this portion of the sub
ject more ample justice. ■
Foreigners are injurious—yea, dan
gerous to our liberties—because they
are largely Catholic, and consequently,
utterly opposed to the whole geuius of
©«*• institutions.' This is not “ all talk.”
They are a curse to us, in more than
one way. No stream is so pure but that
it may be polluted. “ Evil communica
tions, corrupt good manners,” is a pro
verb applying here. Can any other chafi
netbr of communication come from Eu
ropean convicts and paupers l A nurse
they sow the seed that can hever.be toot
ed out. How many Irish (Catholic)
nurses have we ? Workshops may be
come crowded and labor a drug. How
kept in poverty from this fact!
Arrogance is a marked feature in
foreigners. And ..we here assert, and
■may take occasion to demonstrate the
fact, that.fore.igu influence is the mother
of all the abominable isms in our land—
from abolitionism down; We may not
root out the tares that have been sown, or
shut out the foreigners in future, "but
we should, of right, govern ourselves.
What are the opinions of these great
men—patriots—recorded above, worth,
if not to warn us ! Foreigners and
Demagogues are the only opponents of
the American party; therefore, the lat
ter must be right. Jt.

PRINCIPLES OF THE
NOTHINGS.
As the discussion of this mysterious
subject has at length reached Congress,
aud has therefore become a matter of
general interest, we copy the following
declaration of principles from the
“American Organ,” published at Wash
ington City, arid which assumes to be
the exponent of the Order in the United
States:
OUR PRINCIPLES.
First. We shall advocate a repeal
of the laws of naturalization, or if that
cannot be accomplished, then such a
modification of these laws, as will pie-
vent future immigrants from becoming
citizens, short of a residence of twenty-
one years, after taking the oath of alle
giance to the United States, and ofai-
juration of all other powers, potentates,
and princes.
Second. We shall advocate the pas
sage of a stringent law by Congress to
prevent the immigrati on hither of ior-
an eiguerSjWho are either paupers or crimi
nals, nnd to send back to the countries
from which they come, all such foreign
ers of these classes as may, in violation
of such law, hereafter reach our ports ;
and to require the President of the Uni
ted States to demand from any govern
ment, which may send hither such clas
ses of its subjects, immediate and ample
satisfaction for such outrage, and a pro
per indemnity against the repetition
thereof.
Third. We shall oppose the election
>r appointment of any foreign lorn ci
tizen to any office of trust, honor of
emolument, under the Federal or State
governments, or the employment or en
listment of such persons in the army or
navy in time of war; maintaining, as we
do the opinion, that the native born citi
zens of the United States have the right
to govern the land of their birth ; and
that all immigrants from abroad should
be content with the enjoyment of life,
liberty and property under our institu
tions, without seeking to participate in
the enaction, administration, or execu
tion of our laws.
Fourth. Wc shall advocate and urge
the adoption of such an amended form
of an oath to support the Constitution of
the United States, and to be administer
ed to all persm^ elected or appointed to
auy office of trust, honor, or emolument,
under the Federal or State governments,
as will effectually exclude from such
offices all persons, who shall not direct
ly and explicitly recognize the obliga
tions and binding force of the Constitu
tion of the United States, as paramount
to ail obligations of adhesion or alle
giance to any foreign prince, p .wer, po
tentate, or authority whatever, under any
and all circumstances.
Fifth. We shall maintain the doc
trine, that no one of the States of this
Union has the right to "admit to the en
joyment of free suffrage any person of
Jorcign birth, who has not been first
made a citizen of the United States, ac
cording to the “uniform rule” of natu
ralization prescribed by Congress, under
the provision of the constitution.
Sixth. We shall oppose now and here-
o.fter, any ’•‘union of Church and State,”
no matter what class of religionists shall
seek to bring about .such union.
SeventhWe shall* vigorously main
tain the vested rights of all persons, of
native or foreign birth, and shall at all
times oppose the slightest interference
with such vested rights;
Eighth. We shall oppose and protest
against all abridgment of religious liber
ty, holdiug it as a cardinal maxim, that
religion^ faith is a question between each
individual dm) his God, and over which
nQ political government, or other human
power, can rightfully exercise any super
vision or control, at any time, in any
place, or in any form.
Ninth. We shall oppose all “higher
law” doctrines, by which the constitu
tionals To beset at nought, violated, or
disregarded, whether by politicians, by
religionists, or by the adherents or fol
lowers of either; or by any other class of
persons. .
Tenth. We shall maintain and defend
the constitution as it stands, the Union
as it exists, and the rights of the States,
without dimmution as guaranteed there
by : opposing at all times, and to the ex
prime Cherry Expectorant, which is ro-
allv wliatit professes to be, a' <c good medi
cine.” tf it were not such, it would not have
received the decided and warm approval*of
some of the most celebrated, intelligent a nd
high-minded physicians in the country,who
have been made acquainted with the recipe
from which it is compounded, and who say
that it will effect more good than any. of the
nnmerons preparations with which the conn-
try is inundated.” An array of testimony,
such as can be shown in favor of S&rbler’s
Anodyne Cherry Expectorant, andStabler’s
Diarrluea Cordial, could never be produced,
unless they were really and truly “goodmed
icines.” Therefore, wc advise you to make
trial of them,.with confidence. See descrip
tive pamphlets, to bo had gratis of the agents,
l’rice of each, only 50 cents per bottle, or
six bottles for $‘2 50.
