to the Compromise measures of 1850,
particularly the law for the recovery of
fugitive slaves—you are, in short, held
up here as a very dangerous man, cn-l
tcrtainmg opinions and sentiments
against the South on all the great ques
tions in which she is interested.
I am a member of the American
iParty, and disbelieve the charges against
you, and have denounced them as false
to all with whom 1 have conversed on
the subject. Will you please send me
the facts of the case, with« view to
their publication, and at as early a day
as possible.”
Mr. Bartlett, in reply to the forego
ing, has forwarded me the Common
wealth, a paper published at Frankfort,
Kentucky, dated July 23, containing
an article, by its editor, in reply to the
infamous charges now so industriously
circulated against him by Anti-Ameri
can papers in the South. Mr. Bartlett
endorses this article as containing the
true facts of the case, and his history,
from the time of his birth, up to July
23,1855. Read it, people of Georgia,

that has nothing on which to base a
hope of success but the facility with
which it can coin, publish, and circulate

« THE REAL ISSUE ’
Such is the heading.of the leading
editorial of the Banner' of Aug. 2d.
And from the flVst lines, I was induced to
believe that the Editors had turned mor
alists, and that we should have no more
Politics from that paper. I was not
long suffered, however, to labor under
a mistake so ridiculous. That imisrep
resentation is a vice, no one I think will
deny : “ And to be hated needs only to
be seen.” The “ American Party” has
been misrepresented from its commence
ment. by the “ Anti-American Party”
and Press. First, it was represented
to be an Abolition concern,” sprung
from Massachusetts soil, the hot bed of
Abolitionism; then it*Was “Whiggery
in disguise.’’ Again, it was “ the secret
blade of Joab,” which was to slay the
“ Kansas Nebraska Bill.” One by one
have these false accusations been made
to recoil upon those making them; in
such force as to rob them of their accus
tomed prudence and urbanity ; and in
their rage, they have not hesitated to
use towards the "‘American Party,”
such foul abuse, and low, bitter vitu
peration, that should have soma other
emanation, than from the hearts ol
when partizan feeling runs highest, .so
construe the “ Principles of the Ameri
can Party.” What were the provisions
of that “ Federal Act’ to which the
principles of the present “ American
Party” are analogous to, much more
identical with. It may be. that this
misstatement of the The Re.il Issue”
may be accounted for, by the following
excerpt, and that the Editors of the Ban
ner may find their position with th^larger
of the two classes therein specified.—
“ It is a singular fact, that whilst every
citizen of the United States had heard
something of the Alien and Sedition
laws which were passed in the year ’98
by the Federal Congress, very few com
paratively have ever read them.” And
it is a fact equally as singula/, that some
read not at all, not to understan 1, or
else understanding wilfully to misrepre

A FOUL SLANDER UPON MR
BARTLETT AND ITS REFU
TATION.
In all the political campaigns we ever
witnessed, we never saw a parly so reck
less and audacious in the use of slander
and falsehood as the anti-American party
now is. Slanders the most baseless,
shameless and absurd, which have not
only no foundation, but which never
have been even suggested by any Mate
of facts that ever existed, concocted and
circulated with such unscrupulousness
and audacity that one feels compelled to
suppose that the Pope, for whose bene
fit this party is laboring, has given a
general indulgence to every member of
•of it to lie and slander without sin or
responsibility, whenever ho thinks it
may help the cause of His Holiness and
his friends.
The latest slander devised to injure
•the American party which has come to
•our notice is mentioned in the letter of a
gent'eman of Georgia, which has just
•been put into our hands. He says it is
charged by Southern anti-American
presses, orators, and party hacks, that
E. B. Bartlett, Esq., of Kentucky,
now Grand President of the National
’Council of the American order, is ‘‘a
Massachusetts Abolitionist, in full fel-
love their country and its people more | American freemen. Yet, notwithstand
ing all this, influenced by an unbounded
Love of Country—urged on by an “ in
tense American feeling,” and an ardent
de-ire that our Institutions of Govern
ment be not contaminated by Anti-Re
publican injluences, the “ American
Party” has pursued the “ even tenor of
its way,” determined that while holding
on to the substance of Democracy, the
Party which now vainly clasps its shad
ow, shall not divert it from its proper
direction.
The Banner charges the American
party” with ** beginning to show the
cloven foot of FederAism,” with being
“ a real John Adams’ “ Alien anl Sedi
tion Party.” 1 ask in all candor, not
as a partizan, (for this I never have, nor
ever will be) but as one, desirous that
truth should prevail—that the People of
Georgia—aye, of the United States,
should adopt and pursue, that line of
political conduct, whatever it may be,
most conducive to the best interest of
this Republic.
Has the Banner presented truly,
“ The Real Issue,” now being made
between “ The American” and “ Anti-
owship with Wilson, Greeley, and all I American Pmrties?” I answer NO!
’T'lint tin i* rlinrofil also I pj or do I believe that any one will en
dorse this “ Real Issue’’ opinion of the
Banner, who will trouble himself to
make a calm, dispassionate investigation
of the Principles of the American Party
(and who wilt refuse to make this in
vestigation ?) but will he not, on the
other hand, be forced to the conclusion
that the Banner is shirking the issue
and by thus loudly crying, “ Stop thief,’
is endeavoring to divert the public mind
from its own “ Federal Proclivities."—
Federal indeed! Grave* charge from
such a quarter—who ever entertained a
suspicion, that the ” Banner" ever par
ticipated in the luxury of indulging in
State Rights" sentiments? Why,
'that crowd.” That he is charged also
with “having sympathized with the move
ment of the New England Clergymen
who sent the anti-Nebraska memorial to
The Senate of the United States at the
last session of Congress.*' That he is
•also "‘denounced for opposition to the
Compromise measures of 1850, partic
ularly the law for the recovery of fugi-
‘ttve slaves;’ and that ‘in short,he is held
up os a very dangerous man, entertaiing
opiuions and sentiments against the South
•on all the great questions in which she
is interested.”
Now, to Kentuckians it would scarce
ly he necessary to refute this story at all.
Every man in this State, or of any State,
who knows anything about Mr. Bart
lett, knows that all these charges and
•representa.ions are false in every parti-
•cular and in gross, and that they consti
tute together a monstrous slander almost whose name have you, Mr. Banner
•unprecedented in the annals of partisan
warfare. Mr. Bartlett was born in
Henry county, Kentucky. His honored
father, Anthony Bartlett, was the com
•mander of a company of mounted men
from Kentucky, in Wayne’s campaign
against the Indians, and also commanded
•a company of Kentucky Minute Men
•during the other Indian wars. He was
for many years a member of the Ken
tucky Legislature, serving at different
‘times in each branch of it and was a
•member of the Senate at the time of his
death. Mr. Bartlett’s mother was a
Blackburn—a member of one of the best
known, most extensive and most respect
able families in Kentucky. Thus we
streaming from 'he banner at your “ mast
head” as candidate for Congress in the
6th District ? The Hon. Mr. Cobb’s
he who voted for the Oregon bill with
Wilmot's Proviso attached; he who,
as Speaker ol the House, U. S. R., so
framed the Committee on Territories
as to givgt&e Free States the majority
he who as candidate for Governor, sup
ported and elected by the framers of
the “ Georgia Platform,” in contradic
tion to the plain avowal of that instru
ment, pronounced the “ Compromise
see that il there be any virtue or reli- Measures’’ a glorious triumph” to the
South, '" Fair, liberal and just,” &c.
| It was too replete with “ States Rights'
and “ Southern Rights” sentiments for
him; an open, unqualified advocacy
its every sentiment was too much tor
nnce in genuine Kentucky stock, Mr.
Bartlett has that advantage. Instead of
being a Massachusetts Abolitionist, he
is « Kentucky slaveholder. He was born
in Kentucky, reared in Kentucky, edu
cated in Kentucky, and has always lived
in Kentucky. He is a thorough Ken-... . . ,
tuckian in every part and attribute of I might stint his growing JWzfzorzrz/
his character; a slaveholder all his life, | popularity ! lie must deny to the States
and a slaveholder now; a man fully
identified with Southern institutions,
feelings and interests; a strong and firm
friend of the South in every contest in
which she has been engaged, and at the
same time a strong and firm friend of the
Union, and of the Compromise)* which
were made in 1850 to preserve it. In
short, he is a man as free from all taint
of Abolitionism as any man upon Ken
tucky soil.

“ SAM” IN GWINNETT.
Pursuant to a privious notice, a large
number of the “ American party” and
many persons friendly to the same, met
in the Court House of Lawrenceville,
Gwinnett county, on Friday the 10th
August (1855) 11 o’clock, A. M., for the
purpose of selecting candidates to repre
sent said county in the next Legislature,
and to ratify the action of the late Na
tional aud State Council.
On motion of Maj. R. D. Winn, the
meeting was brought lo.order by calling
Dr. Jesse Lowe and Col: W. H. Fitts to
the chair. Upon taking their seats, Col,
Fitts explained the object of the meeting
and the aims of the American party,
in a very chaste and dignified manner.
M. L. Adair was requested to act as
Secretary.
Upon motion, Maj. R. D. Winn offer
ed the following resolution, which was
adopted :
Resolved, That all of our fellow citi
zens who approve our principles are re
cognised as members of our party, and
arc iuvited to participate in. the proceed
ings of this meeting.
W. J. Peeples, E-q., then offered the
following preamble and resolutions :
Whereas, a crisis has arrived in our
country, when it behoves every patriot
in the land to raise his voice in behalf
of America, and Americanism. There
fore, we, a portion of the common peo
ple, witness with alarm, the tide of for
eign immigration, pauperism and crime
to our shores, and the efforts on the part
of the Catholic Priesthood to bring the
peculiar dogmas of their church, ami
the influence of their priests over the
laity of their church into conflict with
the freedon of elections. Be it th re-
fore,
Resolved, That the American
party having for its objects the correc
tion of the above mentioned evils, and
having adopted the only sound Platfi rm
upon which the South can stand, that
we ratify and approve the Platform re
cently adopted by said party at Phiia
delphi a.
Resolved, That .we heartily respond
to and approve the Platform of principles
of the Macon Convention, and hail with
delight the nomination of that tried,
early and fast friend of the Georgia
Platform, the Hon. Garnett Andrews,
as our standard bearer in this political
contest.
Resolved, That we utterly repudiate
and condemn thevacillating fpolicy of
President Pierce in his appointments to
office : First, of sound men and then of
Freesoilcrs, excluding such patriots as
Dickinson and Bronson, of New York,
and hugging to his bosom that viper,
Reeder, and sending him to Kansas for
the purpose of 'excluding slavery
therefrom.
Resolved, That we are unwilling to
pay taxes to be expended by Gov. John
son, to secure his own election, and
that he owes it to himself and the peo
ple to exculpate himself from the charge
recently preferred against him by the
people of Cass County, in relation to
the freights of Mark A. Cooper.
Resolved, That wo will bear aloft,
the banner of Americanism until victory
shall perch upon our standard, and the
maxim be established, that “ American
only shall rule America.” Thereupon,
Mr. Peeples made a speech at some
length, in-which he ably and forcibly
discussed and elucidated the principles
of the party, and successfu lly refuted
the false charges of the Anti-Americans,
Whereupon Maj. Winn offered the
following as an amendment, or in addi
tion to the foregoing :
Resolved, That the American party
of said county unequivocally condemn
the policy of the late Legislature of
Georgia: First, for its unprecedented
long session. Second, for enacting no
laws beneficial to the State. Third, for
the obstructing the execution of the
Penal Laws. Fourth, for its recess.
Fifth, for emptying the Treasury, and as
a remedy against the recurrence of these
evils, we call upon the people through
out the State to co-operate with us, and
elect no man hereafter who will not
pledge himself to use his best endeavors
to reform the evils of which we com
plain. Which said resolution and amend
ments were unanimously adopted.
On motion of J. N. Glenn, Esq.,
Resolved, That we now proceed to
the nomination (by ballot) of a candidate
for the State Senate and candidates for
the house, and that a majority of ail the
votes cast shall be necessary for a choice
of said candidates, which was adopted:
Whereupon the following named gen
tlemen werejselected. Maj, R. D. Winn
for the Senate, and W. J. Peeples and
M. H. Adams were chosen for the
house. Messrs. Winn and Peeples be
ing present, signified their assent in
short speeches.
J. N. Glenn, Esq. then offered the
following:
Resolved. That the proceedings of
this meeting be published in the South
ern Recorder and Athens Watchman,
which was adopted.
On motion, the meeting adjourned.

Diseases of the Liver.—When the Celebrated
Dr. Rush declared that drunkenness was a
disease, lie enunciated a truth which the ex
periencc and observation of medical men is
every day confirming. The many apparent
ly insane excesses of those who indulge in
the use of spirituous liquors, may be thus no
counted for. The true cause of conduct
which is taken for infatuatiou, is very fre
quently a diseased state of the Liver. No
Tgan in the human system, when deranged,
produces a more frightful Catalogue of dis
eases. Ami if, instead of applying remedies
to the manifestations of disease, as is too
often the case, physicians would prescribe
with a view to the original cause, fewer deaths
would result front diseases induced by a
deranged state of the Liver. Three-fourths
>f the diseases enumerated the head of Con
sumption, have their seat in a diseased Liver.
See Dr. Gunn’s great works.)
lii^Purcliusers will be careful to ask for
Dr. M'Lauc’s Celebrated Liver Pills^imd
ake none else. There arc other Pills, pur
porting to be Liver Pills, now before the
public. Dr. M’Lnne’s Liver Pills, also his
Celebrated Vermifuge, can now be had at all
respectable Drug Stores in the United States

CONSUMPTION.
SUCCESSFULLY TREATED BY IN
HALATION OF MEDICATED VA
PORS.
B Y JOHNSON STEWART ROSE, M. D.,
Fellow of the Rojal College of Physici-
aus, and for years Senior Physiciau in the
London Royal Infirmary for diseases of the
Lungs.
In the treatment of Consumption by In
halation, I have obtained results which war
rant me in asserting that it is now as cura
ble as di-eases of the Stomach and Liver.
Breathing medicine directly into the
Lungs is certainly the rational mod# of at
tacking the disease, and like many other
great aud beneficent discoveries* it seems
strange why such treatment was not resort
ed to long ago. Where there is life, there is
surely hope for the most seeming hopeless
cases, us throughout all the stages of this in
sidious disease, the wonderful and beneficent
iffeets of its treatment are soon apparent. In
cases also of Bronchitis, Asthma, &.C., the
inhaling of powders and vapors has been
eminently successful, aud to those suffering
under any of the above darnel complaints,
I can guarantee speedy and certain relief. I
have pleasure in referring to 207 names,
residents of New York, and neighborhood
who have been restored to vigorous health
About one third of the above number, ac
cording to the patients own statements,'were
considered hopeless cases.
The inhaling Method is soothing seife and
speedy, and consists iu the administration
of medicines in sueb a manner they are con
veyed into the Lungs in the form of vapor, and
produce their action at th? sent of the disease.
Its practical success is destined to revolu
Utilize the opinious of the medical world
and establishe the entir curability of Con
sumption.
Applicants will please stale if they' have
ever bled from the Lungs, if they have lost
flesh, have u cough, night sweats and fever
turns—what and how much they expectorate,
v bat the condition of their stomach and
bowels. The nrCtSsnry Medicines, apparft
tus, <fec,, will be forwarded to any part,
TERMS—Five dollars. Consultation fee.
Balance of fee payable only. when the pati
ents report themselves convalescent.
RECOMMENDATION BY PHYSICIANS.
We, the undersigned practitioners in me
dicine, cheerfully and heartily recommend
Dr. Roses method of treating diseases of ihe
Lungs and Throat, as the best and most efiec-
tual ever introduced into medical practice. Our
convictions are based upon having several
of ourow” patients, confirmed consumptives,
restored to vigorous health after a few
months treatment by'Dr, Rose, in the above
named diseases the application of “dedicat
ed Vapors," inhaled directly into the Lungs,
may be justly considered a great boon to
suffering humanity, rendering Consumption
a perfectly curable disease.
Dr. Hose deserves well of the profession
for his unwearied labors in bringing the In
haling Method to such a degree of perfee
lion,
