'M ly) for a quest to introduce politics, and dijcant on the position of parties, in social gatherings of men, many of whom would, from the nature of the case, entertain opinions altogether at r at war with those he might advocate.— Such a topic might, it is true, be broach ed by some ill-mannered specimen of humanity; but the well-bred and elite members of the “ gathering” would frown it down, and refuse to consocintp with the party guilty of it forever after wards 1 Suppose, for illustration, there should be a social gathering of the peo- people of Athens at the residence of one of your respectable citizens, a member of the American Party, and that Mr. Cobb should be invited to, and attend it. Would he think of mounting a ‘chair, or table, and delivering a regular, ■political harangue to the guests, then 'and there assembled, denouncing his ‘h^st, and others present, uS lousy, 'c'hristless, Godless” rascals—“ dark- lantern conspirators’—“plotting the bv a reference to the history of the past.” In his Tammary speech he was right the other way! He even talked about “pledges!" He dop't want the past to come up in revieg now ! Oh, no! If it (the past) were to be looked into, that bargain with Toombs and Stephens and Whigs, in 1850, would be recollected! That abolion vote, in Congress, in favor of the Wil- m<»t Proviso, would be remembered ! His combination with Johnson, in 1853, to defeat the election of Charles J. Mc Donald for Senator would recur to the minds of the people ! “ Don’t think of the past, feliow-citizens,” cries Mr. Cobb! “Judge me by my present opinions and principles!’’ (Nobody ever thought you had this commodity, Mr. Cobb.) “ Let by-gones be by-gones! 1 can forget and forgive the past! You, fellow-citizens, must be equally liberal —equally magnanimous ! I am anxi ous to go to Congress again—I am a Democrat. I will serve you faithfully ■overthrow of the Constitution of the if you will once more honor me with a 'country and the subversion of the iiber- j seat in the Halls of Congress.” It all ties of the people?” Mr. Cobb would ^ won’t do Mr. Cobb! You can’t come not think of perpetrating any such * n 4 his time. The people arc tired of outrage on the decencies and convention- y° u —tired of being sold and traded ofT alities of refined, social life! He would hke sheep in the market.

The honest people WELL TO REMEMBER. The enemies of the American cause are lauding the foreigner as a truer sol dier and a better cilzen then the native. Their favorite illustration is to compare Arnold with Lafayette; thence they argue that all foreigners are Lafayettes, and that as Arnold was a native traitor, it is very probable most natives are traitors. It may refresh the patriotism of such traducers of their countrymen and advocates of aliens to read the fol lowing description of an American and a foreign soldiery upon the same battle field : “ An American Soldier.—Most providentially at that moment Taylor arrived with Davis’ [Hon. Jefferson Davis] Mississippi riflemen and May’s dragoons. The former barely stopped an instant for the men to fill their can teens, then hastened to the field. Boil ing with rage, Davis called on the In diana volunteers to form ‘ behind that wall,’ pointing to his men, and advance against their enemy. Their Colonel, Bowles, the tears streaming down his face, finding all his appeals fruitless, seized a musket, and joined the Missis- sippians as a privrte. Time could not be lost, Ampudia was close upon them; Davis formed and advanced with steady tread against a body more than five times his strength. A rain of balls pour ed upon the Mississippians. but no man pulled a trigger till sure of his mark Then those deadly rifles blazed, and stunned the Mexican advance. A ra vine separated them ; Davis gave the word, and, with a cheer, down they rushed and up the other side ; then form ing hastily, with one awful volley they shattered the Mexican head, and drove them back to cover.” ATHENS PRICES CURRENT.

At a meeting of the American Party of this city and county, the following resolutions were unanimously adopted : Whereas, the sentiment of the Amer ican Party of Chatham County, as ex pressed in the declaration of their De legates at the State Council, of Georgia, lition democracy, of New York City which convened at Macon in the month and State, and lias ever been such since of June last is opposed to the introduc- its first institution, manv rears ago !- 1 ‘j 0 " . of lhe element of religious proscrip- .. ^ . . . . * ' , tion.in any shape, either expressly or by Mr. Cobb went there in October, l&o—, implication as an article of their politi- was “introduced'’ “initiated,” and: C aV creed—which sentiment, it is now “ hailed within the walls of the Great considered proper solemuly to re-iterr.te, Wigwarm”—(what an injin name to > publicly to declare—And w lierea-, - ., | - .. . ,. ! also, the late National Council at Phil- give the place of a social meeting t) j adel ’ phia has removed the veil of aecre?y> as a “ brother,” entitled to the “ full j and abolished the Old Ritual requiring fellowship” of “ ardent, warm, and en- oath or affirmation from members, adopt- thusiastic friends” bv whom lie was «d «« expedien in the early inception of Conclusive Evidence,—Hyperion Fluid.— Among the various nostrums which ore daily given to the public for diseases of the hair, we have ever been averse to giving credence to them. But from the numerous respectable testimonials of the virtues of the Hyperion Fluid, with which we have been favored a perusal. We were inclined to make atrial of the same, being confidently assured that if it did good it would do no harm, and the result is that it certainly gave to the hair a more althy and luxuriant growth, and comple tely cleansed the skin from all scut * dandruff. We are assured that it is almost an infallible dare for baldness, and a certain prevention to the hair turning gray. It i purely compounded of vegetable extracts, and safe in its application.

The “ Grand Sachem” (Heavens! what a jaw-breaker!) pre sented “ brother” Cobb to the meeting, and “ brother ” Cobb spoke lovingly to the “Grand Sachem” and the “ breth ren” there congregated! Who ever heard of a man being called a “ Grand Sachem,” in a soccial meeting, about Athens, Georgia ? Do, Mr. Cobb, write another let ter! I atn anxious that you should get out of this ugly difficulty be fore the first Monday in October ! You orlcr write another letter, and you will wish you had ! Addressing himself to the “Grand •Sachem,” and “ the brethren,” then and ■there assembled, in old Tammany, Mr. 'Cobb said : “ There was an effort made to destroy this government,” (alluding to the Nash ville Convention and the Southern :Rights party,) “ an effort to have prac tical secession carried out, in the South ern States, on account of the compro mise measures.” And again: *“ The best pledge I can give you for tTie future is a reference to the history of the past. With neither of these faction*—the fanatics of the North or the South,” (alluding to Herschell V. John son, Charles J. McDonald, Walter T. Colquit and the whole Southern Rights party of Georgia,) “ will I co-operate to the abandonment of my principles.” What beautiful language for Mr. Cobb to use in a “ social gathering /” Have you kept j-our promise, Mr. Cobb?— What “ faction” are you now “ co-oper ating” with ? the faction that made the Georgia Platform, which you professed to admire so much in your Tammany speech ? or the faction that were opposed to that Platform, the head of which (II. V. Johnson) “spit” upon it, and expressed “ effablc contempt for the whole pack” that built it ? You arc now co-operating with the original opposers and contemners of the Georgia Plat form—the identical men whom you de nounced ns “ fanatics,” in your Tam many Ilall speech, as late as October, 1852, classing them with the Abolition ists (fanatics) of the North! Who lias !** abandoned’’ principles, you, or tlie Georgia Secessionists ( as you called Jjicm) of 1850 1851 ?

By the several Councils composing the American Party of Chat ham County in mass meeting assembled, 1, That the American Party of Chat ham County do not recognize as a doct rine of their political faith, any opposi tion to individuals, on account of their religious creed nor the imposition of any civil disability r.or the deprivation of any civil rights, on that account or for that reason. 2, That henceforth, the only obliga tion that will be required from any one destrous of connecting himself with this Party, will he his endorsement of the principles of the Party as set forth in their platforms. 3, That the American Party of Chat ham County shall be henceforth regard ed as it is—A Party, and not a Secret Order. 4, That all persons in the County of Chatham,co-inciding with the American Party in opinion upon the politcal issues involved at this time, and approving their doctrines, shall be regarded as its members. 5, That the American party cf Chat ham County have no retrospective ob jects ; that no attempt will be made to affect the rights and privileges of pers ons who are now citizens of the United States, or the State of Georgia; that the main and distinct objects of the Party are—1st, To have a proper and imparti al administration of our City Ordinances and Laws; 2d, the cultivation of an intensely American sentiment; and 3d, A proper modification of the Natu ralization Laws of our country—to the end that “AMERICANS SHALL RULE AMERICA.” Thus the American party has thrown off its swaddling clothes, and doffed the trappings of a vigorous manhood. The same thing has been done in other por tions of the Stale aud of the Union, and at this time there is, practially, no dif ference between the organization of the American party and other political asso ciations. This step has been taken in pursuance of the action of the Philadel phia nnd Macon Councils. The old ritual, with its obligations and ceremonies was abolished by the National Council in June last, nnd if it has been enforced in any part of the country since that time it was the result of Information. It is pity thus to deprive the Democrat press and orators of their standing argu rnent, but justice must be done, though the heavens should fall, and with them the aforesaid press and orators We would add, by way of explanation that the American party of Chatham has not disbanded its councils, nor sur rendered iis charter. The councils will be continued as valuable auxiliaries, through which the business of committees will be transacted, and persons desirous offormally connecting themselves with the party will be received. In other words, the organization will be preserv- Whut i* Joy ?—The i oney of existence really beneficial and agreeable,- as one feels after being cured of the toothache by lhe use of Perry Davis’ Pain Killer, It is proper to add that almost every other description ol pain is removed by its application Forsaleat the Drug Stores of Smith Billups and C.
