Put my name on your subscription list and send me your paper. I want my wife fand children to read it.

Athens, May 22,1855. REUBEN. This being the first public demonstra tion of the order of the “ Knights of Jericho,” at this place, Mr. Hurris re viewed and explained (as far as practi cable) tbe various ends and objects had in view, and tbe beauty of tbe means by which those ends are sought to be ac complished. The object of all which is the amelioration of the condition of the human family. Mr. Harris’ speech was redolent with those striking features which are calculated to interest, con vince, and please, and was admirably adapted to the joccasicn, and during its delivery called forth frequent rounds of applause. The services being closed by singing and prayer, the members returned in due form and order, to their Hall, where their Lodge was closed in due form by the worthy Chief. J. H. Bird, H. S. VanDiviere T. H. Bird. For the Southern Watchman. Mr. Editor: Allow me U* suggest to the prospective convention of the Samites, incase our friend, Hon. W. C. Dawson, be not the nominee, the nameofHon. Ashury Hull orofCol. John Billups, as a candidate, Gubernatorial. I do this without their authority, and they would excuse the partiality of friendship, and that patriotism which looks to the honour and probity and the financiering ability and experience of the one, or the sterling Aristidean in tegrity and solicitude for the weal of the State and people, of the other.— Judge Dawson (as we saw how he did in Congress) is as sensitive about the preservation or husbandry of the peo ple’s money, as any man that ever went to Congress. In him much good awaits a happy people. This I suggest without militating with the claims of the friends of Mr. C. J. Jenkins, or offering any detriment to the prospects of Mr. Basil H. Overby, My idea is that the pkoper disposai. of tks upper Rail-Wav and the SETTLEMENT OF THE FINANCES OF THE Statf., arc matters of as absorbing in terest ns all others before the people : And that it is a sagacious rule, after fio long trying the capacities of one set / of Politicians, that a trial of another, be the course of the Commonwealth, ns to moo, in whom even Temperance, itself, added to all these other indispensi- ble qualities, would find as steady a friend, if the Legislature, pass its re quired bill, as the Democratic nominee and elect, may be, hitnse'f I And who thinks Gov. Johnson is not as steady and consistent a friend to prohibition as can be Mr. Overby, tho’ he and Mr. Jenkins, in 1853, were silent on this point? IIORTENSIUS. For the Southern Watchman.

Among those pre sent at the meeting on Friday night last was the Hon. John P. Kennedy, of Baltimore, who, it will be recollected, was a member of Mr. Fillmore’s Cabi net. The ostensible visit of Mr. Ken nedy, ns announced at the lime, was to visit our navy-yard and the military- defences of our harbor. We are not particularly informed as to the delibera tions and results of that meeting; but we do know that a new Order was for med within the Know Nothing organi zation, being a wheel within a wheel, calling lhemseIves‘Templars,’and formed with the express object of influencing the entire Know Nothing party for Mr. Fillmore in the next contest." foreign Hems.

American Republic, that lias become the pole-star to which, from all sides, the eye of struggling nations turns.” A significant admission to come from an English source. reporting the proceedings of this even ing, beg leave to state, that alter meet ing at our hall, and organizing in due form, at a quarter past seven o’clock, the Lodge in procession moved to the Methodist church, where was convened a full assemblage of citizens. The exercises of the evening were opened with singing and prayer, by the Rev. John L. Richardson. The Rev. Single- ton Sisk first addressed the assembly Without any attempt to excite, or at display, Mr. Sisk addressed himself to the judgment and understanding of his auditory—he placed before them the subject of the temperance reform in a strong and omphalic light, and in a calm and dignified manner threw into his discourse the clear convictions of his own mind—coupled with a strong and marked reference to the incumbent <kjty of every Minister of the Gospel, who he .contended should not only teach, but practice that precept, *• taste not, touch not, handle not, the unclean thing.”— Mr. Sisk was listened to with much in terest and attention, and we have heard but one expression of opinion relative to the great giod he is destined to do, and the desire that he may be more closely endeared to us as a co-laborer in this great and good work. The Rev. John L. Richardson next addressed the meeting a short time, without attempting to make a speech, but merely to state in his usual waim OUR POSITION. In defending the principles of the American Party—which we believe it to he our duty to do—we wish it dis tinctly understood, that we warfare agqinst Democracy or Whi gery—Southern Rights or Unionism— indeed, against no party of present or past times, except the abolitionists. So far as the other parties named are con cerned, we regard them all as esential- ly “ dead cocks in the pit ” It is true that certain designing demagogues and party hacks—aided by a few honest but misguided men, whom they have induc ed to remain with them around these dead carcasses, are vainly endeavoring to galvanize them into a brief and spas modic resuscitation. But all their efforts As national organizations they are essentially dead, dead, dead! This being the case, we are willing to inscribe on their tomb stones a suitable memorial of the good they have done—whilst the evil they have brought about we are willing to bury with their dead bodies in the tomb of forgetfulness. We cannot think of waging war against dead carcases—nor is there any necessity for it. It is enough for us to defend the American party. We shall attack none of these defunct organiza tions, but so far as they are concerned, act entirely on the defensive. In making this declaration, we do not pretend to say that we will not battle with the other great new party now forming—the anti-American, or foreign Catholic party—we know not what name it may assume. It is highly pro bable, however, that like all piratical concerns, it will appropriate to its un hallowed purpose the banner and even the once popular name of one of the deceased parties. This miserable at tempt to mislead the people will, how ever, be exposed in due time, and all parties accessory to the attempted fraud will be held up to the comtempt of their insulted countrymen. It appears that many of the letters from the Pacific received by the last arrival, having been mailed before information of the change in the law reached there, have come under the former! rates of postage—namely, six cents prepaid,and ten cents unpaid. Under these circum stances, we legrn that the instructions wage not f rom the department are that all such letters shall be treated as if the law had not been changed. . er We are Wonderfully Made.—’A’ben it is known that each being ttirows out several pounds of the refuse of animal matter every (lay through the pores of the skin, the con ilition under which these functions are placed become subject for serious consideration The best articles suited to impart health and vigor to the whole outward system are Bogie’s Hyperion Fluid for the hair—Ifebcaiona.for removing tan and eruptions of the skin,— and Amide for shaving.

How many are suffering from obstruction* or irregularities peculiartothe female system, . which nui?rmine the health, the effects of which they are ignorant, ?nd for which their delicacy forbids seeking medical uurice ?— Many suffer from prolapsus uteri ( falling of the womb), or from fluor albus (weakness, debility, &c) Many are in constant agony for many mouths preceding confinement.— Many have difficult, if not dangerous delive ries, and slow and uncertain recoveries.— Some whose lives are hazarded during such time, will each find in its pages the means of prevention, amelioration and relief. It is of course impracticable to convoy fully the rations subjects treated of, as they are of a nature strict|y intended for the mar ried o.* those contemplating marriage.
