be forced to ignore the question in their
national platform or swede from their
next national convention. They can
not pass a pro-slavery platform and
force the Abolitionists out,'as the Know-
Nothings did: on the contrary, the
Abolitionists will drive thenvout, and
they will be left to choose between form
ing a sectional organization and becom
ing utterly powerless- or uniting their
forces at the South with the National
American party, and thus maul Aboli
tion into a cocked hat 1
“ To this complexion mast it come at lost,'
and gentlemen who wish to act wisely
and patriotically bad as well make up
their minds at once. The only ques
tion for them to decide is a question of
time. Some of them will probably bold
on to the name of the old organization
until it bursts up at the next national
convention; while others as we think
more wise than they, will at once unite
with the pure and patriotic National
American Party—which is, after all,
but true Democracy, refined and puri
fied of its dross—and buckle on their
armor, ready for the fierce conflict of
1856.
For the Southern Watchman
Lawrenceville, June 19th, 1855.
Mr. Christy : Sir : I beg permission
to give through your paper, an account
of the great meeting of the unterrified
Democracy of this county, which, after
being trumpeted by all the wire-pullers
and party hacks, and advertised in flam
ing hand bills at most, if not all, the store
houses, justice's court grounds, cross
roads, &c., through the county, came
off yesterday ; and you mast know that
Ex-Govei nor Cobb was present—boil
ing and fuming with pent-up rage against
poor unoffending Sam. Well sir, the
appointed hour, eleven o’clock, finally
arrived, and considerable ado was mad*
at the court house, calling and bluster
ing, to every body and every body’s
brother to come in; they succeeded
pretty well, in getting in all the friends
and enemies of Sam into the court
house, and I was informed by those
present, both friends and enemies, that
they supposed there were one hundred
persons all told, and of this number at
least one half are dead against Catholics,
Foreigners, and the Cobb dynasty, and
will vote foi any respectable opponent
who will come out against him, and
advocate the cause of the American
Party. Various are the conjectures as
to the causes operating upon the minds
of the people, which prevented them
from coming out to hear the great advo-
ca.e of Catholicism. Some very shrewd
ly suspected that it was on account of
the harvest, whilst others thought it
was the unpopularity of the speaker
and his foreign principles. The truth
is, Mr. Cobb has changed his political
course too often in the last five years,
to retain the confidence of the people.
In 1859, he was engaged in saving the
Union, and building up a great Union
party upon the Georgia Platform, fight
ing Gov. Johnson and all those who
agreed with him, and denouncing them
as sectionaiists and disunionists. In
1853, he is found battling against
Charles J. Jenkins and tho Georgia Plat
form, leaving the Executive Chair of
Georgia, and stumping it through upper
Georgia side by side and cheek by jowl
with Gov. Johnson, moving heaven and
earth to have Mr. Jenkins defeated, and
denouncing all those as sectional who
desired to see all the people of Georgia
upon her own Platform. Now, in 1855,
wo see this same veritable Howel Cobb
stumping it through this District
calling upon the people to elect
him to Congress, and Johnson Govern
or. Why, because he and Johnson are
vow on the Platform of Georgia.—
“When will wonders cease ?” I was
conversing with a gentleman after the
meeting, who said, “ is it possible that
Cobb and Johnson can beat us.when
they run against the Georgia Platform
And beat us when they turn round and
go for it I told him I thought not. The
time was once when the Cx-Governor
could do these things, but I thought
he had lost the track in Gwinnett coun
ty» That the people could no longe
be gulled by him.” But, sir, to return
The crowd being in, the Ex-Governor
mounted the rostrum and pitched in
right and left and banged the eyes of
Sam, and « with the secret blade of
Joab” gave him several stabs, and some
of his friends remarked that the bells
ought to be tolled, but upon examina
tion it was found that the wounds were
flesh wounds only and towards evening
£5am sensed as vigorous as ever. In
the course of his speech, l am informed
{for I did not hear his speech,) he said
that if the time should ever arrive that
Catholics and Protestants should get
into conflict riitd War, he would should
pf his ryu'kq. and fight side by side with
the Catholics against the Protestants.—
That the Protestant Clergy who had
united with and become members of the
American Party had fallen from their
high position'before the country for truth
and integrity, —were bringing the Chris
tian Ministry into disrepute, the Catho
lics excepted of course, aud that time
had arrived when they even prevari
cated and would not tell the truth.—
Well, sir, this is a fight that Mi. Cobb
has got into with the Protestant Ministry
of the country that he must get out of as
best he may; there were several present,
that will make this charge tel] at the
ides of October.
Mr. Cobb spent an hour abusing, villi-
fying and denouncing the American
party and their principles, and then
turned round with an air of triumph and
asked “ if your principles are good why
not come out and advocate them, why
light a candle and put it under a bushel.”
Now, sir, this pretended ignorance "of
Mr, Cobb is simply ridiculous. He knows
the principles of the American Party as
well ns you do, if he will read your
paper or any other in Georgia , except
the Democratic organs, .who. refuse to
publish them. Or perhaps Mr. Cobb con
siders (hem kept in the dark and under
a bushel, unless published in his organ,
the Southern Banner; that he and the
Banner are alone in the light. Of this, let
the people judge.
A Friend of Sam.
|t^ We are in the daily receipt of
such letters as the following:
“ June 19, 1855.
“ Mb. Christy : I take my pen in hand
to forward the names of some very
staunch Democrats who desire to take
the Watchman. Many of the old-line
Democrats, who have been subscribers
to the ,* say they can’t swallow
the principles that are published in that
sheet any longer, aud intend to have the
paper stopped. The fact is, some of
the Foreign Roman Catholic advocates
in this county have been trying to keep
the spirits of their party up by crying
out "Democracy,” but it won’t do any
longer. The people can’t see any De
mocracy about it. It has Democracy’s
coat on, but the interior looks too for
eign. The hand is that of Esau, but
the voice is Jacob’s. Their main prop
is gone, as to its being a Whig measure.
Stephens and Toombs have knocked all
that into pi. Something has to be done.
Sam is here, and there is a good pros
pect for the Foreign office-seekers to
fall with the buttered side down.

was held at the Town Hall in Athens,
on Saturday .the 23d inst.

R EADER, arc you a husbaud or a father?
a wife or a motueVf Have you the sin
cere welfare of those you love at heart t Prove
your sincerity, and lose no time in learning
what causes interfere with their health and
happiness not less than your own. It will
avoid to you and your.-, as it has to thousands,
many a day of pain and anxiety, followed
by sleepless nights, incapacitating the mind
for its ordinary avocation and exhausting
those means.for medical attendance,medicines
and advertised nostrums, which otherwise-
would provide for declining years,the infirmi
ties of age and the proper education of vour
children.
How often it happens, that the wife finger#
from year to year in that pitiable condition,
ns not even for one day to feci the happy
and exhilarating- influence incident to the
enjoyment of heath, arising from ignorenct-
of the simplest and plameet rules of health
as couuected with the marriage state,.the
violation of which entails disease, and mise

“And must this continue! Must this ho?
Is there no remedy! No relief! No hope?”
The remedy is by knowiug the causes and
avoiding them, and knowing the remedies nmf

PROFESSOR OF DISEASES OF WOME.V.
Ono Hmuirodth Edition (500.000J J8ma, pp. 250.
loir ring rxrca, ctm bifoiso, $ 100.]
A standard work of established reputation 1
found classed iu the catalogue? of the great
trade sales in New-York, Philadelphia, and
other cities, and sold by the principal book
sellers in the United States. It was first
published in 1847, since which time
Five Hundred Thousand Copies
have been sold, of which there were upwards-
of ouc hundred thousand sent hy
mail, attesting the high estimation iu
which it is held as a reliable popular Medi
cal BOOK FOR EVERY FEMALE
the author having devoted bis exclusive at
tention to the treatment of complaints pecu-
liarjto females, in respect to which he is yearly
consulted by thousands, both in person and
by letter.
Here every woman can discover, by com
paring her own symptoms with those de
scribed, the nature, character, causes of, mid-
the proper remedies for. her complaints.
The wife about becoming a mother has
often need of instuction and advice of the-
utmost importance to her future health, iu
respect, to which her sensitiveness forbids-
consulting a medical gentleman, will find,
such instruction aud advice, and also explain
many symptoms which otherwise would oc
casion anxiety or alarm, as all the peculiari
ties incident to her situation are described.
How many arc suffering from obstruct!. n»
or irregularities peculiarto the female system,
which undermine the health, the effects of
which they ate ignorant, and for which their
delicacy forbids seek’ng medical advice ?—
Many suffer from prolapsus uteri ( falling of
the womb), or >eom fiuor a!bus (weakness,
debility, &c ) Many are in constant agony
for many months 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 fiud in its pages (he means of
prevention, amelioration and relief.
It is of course impracticable to convey
fully the vaiions subjects treated of, as they
are of a nature strict jy iutended for the mar
ried o.- those contemplating marriage.
In consequence of the universal populari
ty of tlic work, as evidenced by its extraor
dinary sale, various impositions have been
attempted, as well on books, llcrs ns on the
