* A GLANCE AT PARTIES. The Charleston Evening News thus glances at political parties: A glance at parties. We have wit nessed the wondrous flow and then a eery prompt ebb of Know Nothing ism, and now can discern the commencing reflux, under changing auspices, of Americanism. Many defects, errors and even madness produced the former result; but a depth of sentiment, good and vast, will develope the latter. It will come rolling from the fountains of the great popular heart, which begins to yearn for conservative polities, sound legislation and high nationalized char acter. To these its aspirations may have to wing its way still through storm and cloud, but its upward struggle will probably yet attain to mighty and se rene heights. The late Massachusetts and New York elections have indicated this i«*flux and right tendency. The genuine American party has commenced to slough ofl* what of vicious had become attached to it, and to show that its true bent was to healthy national action. It split in Massachusetts. The Abolition wing fusing with similar factions, no minated Rockwell. Tim national and pure portion rallied around Gov. Gard ner the man who had, in firm regard of Constitution and justice, vetoed the outrageous proceeding of the Legisla ture against Judge Loring for his noble performance of duty in the rendition of a fugitive slave. Although Senators Wilson and Sumner, the abolition chiefs, exe.'ted every effort and tactics against him, the true American conservative spirit bore him triumphantly through, and in rebuke of the madness, which as we had seen, had «• ruled the hi ur,” Massachusetts is somewhat redeemed, and Americans,- once reviled Know Nothings, did it. So in New York, the most unadulte rated of its parties—the unfused Na tional Americans have achieved a still more brdliant and important triumph. It has beaten the faction of the arch Abolition agitator Seward! It was re served for them to do it, and none but they could do it. Let Southern revilers cease, and hang their diminished heads, before this most marked event of our political world. But this was only half their glorious work. It not only pros trated the Fusionists of Seward, but on the other flank defeated the Anti-Slave ry wing (the Softs) of the Democratic party under the freesoil leader, John Van Buren, and sent him with his trai tor father to the tomb of p Jilical death. Well done, Americans ! Well done, New York ! Dissension, produced'by Abolition, caused the American party to lose the late election in Pennsylvania. The ■feat will purify it there and place it on Jrthe more conservative basis of its New York brethern Having the real majori- ' ty, this will ensure its triumph in Penn sylvania in the Presidential canvass. Let those who so blindly and unfuir, charged that the Know Nothings ori ginate in Abolition, mark the refutation of the slander. Although the South generally had not the sagacity to appreciate Americanism, nor the politic promptitude to lay hold upon aud develope its real merits, which would have not proved to it •* a tower of strength,” yet the American party have carried two fifths of the Southern Con gressmen. *. Signs are favorable that the Am ri- cau party will carry the Presidential election. Clear observation cannot be blinded to the fact that the Democratic party i9 broken down—is beginning to die by the corpse of its Whig adversary.; It is powerless ot the North, and far from being all powerful at the South, it has become base, fogy and demoralized. It presents no principles, adhere to n>* . good established doctrines practiced, illustrates no policj’ but “spoils.” • It is .alike untrue to the States and the Feder al Government, to the South and the North. It clings to alienage as its last plank. How can-it surv.ice ? Anew party is wanted. It will come. From whence and in what form ? is now the momentous practical question. e jUP K® ■ W&Jjf • - should say he honors his father aud mother, and loves his brotheru aud sis ters, but still insists that one of them sh ill be driven out of the family, what can y.»u say of him but this, that there is no real family love in him ? You and I are farmers ; we never talk politics ; our talk is of oxens; but remember this; that any man who attempts to excite one part of this country against another is just as wicked as be would be who should attempt to get up a quarrel be tween John Taylor and his neighbor, old Mr. John Samborn, or his other neighbor, Capt. Burleigh. There are some animals that live best in the fire; and there are some men who delight in heat, smoke, combustion, and even general conflagration. They do not follow the things that make for peace. They enjoy only controversy, conten tion, and strife. Have no communion with such persons, either as neighbors or politicians. You have no more right to say that slavery ought not to exist in Virginia that a Virginians has to say that slavery ought to exist in New Hamp shire. This is a question left to every State to decide for itself; and if we mean to keep to States together we must leave to every Stale this power of deeding for itself. I think I never wrote you a word before on politics. I shall never do it again. I only say, love your country, and your whole country; and, when men attempt to persuade you to get into a quarrel with the laws of oth er States, tell them that you mean to mind your business, and advise them to mind theirs. John Taylor, you are a free man; you possess good principles ; you have a large family to rear and pro vide for by your labor. - Be thankful to the Government which does not oppress you, which does not bear you down by excessive taxation, but which hold out to you and yours the hope of all the blessings which liberty, industry, and security may give. John Taylor, lhauk God, morning and evening that you were born in such a country. John Taylor, never write me another word on politics. Give uiy kindest remem brances to your wife and children, and when you look from your eastern win dows upon the graves of my family, re member that he who is the author of this letter mu A soon follow them to another world.

Liverpool Sack 1M of years, renders it a privilege to testify that p st * ** be possessed many virtues. Entire honesty I erman was one of these. Peculiarly sensitive, too, he was often driven to reflections upon the I cold charity and cruel disappointments ofl which he was more than once the subject, I and vbich finally left him in a condition of) settled melancholy and a fondness for seclu sion. Indeed, with such a nature, though I physically able to command success, he was ----- illy fitted for strife with the hollow friendship I 1 aI - ^ e and open deception of a business world. A geuerous, charitable nature, too, made him but too confiding; and s'nrtled, as such often must be, he but too frequently painfully real ized the truth of the inspired writer, “cursed be the man that, trus'eth in man.” Anil thus, | disappointed at life’s very threshold, he turn ed to a higher sphere for the realization ofl fond dreams, now over, and quit this lower Q ats life. An only son, many were the hopes cherish ed by fond parents and a large circle of rela tives, of his future. Even while suffering, none thought he would so soon betaken away;] but the shaft, sped by a skilful hand, was but ^)il, Linseed too faithful in its mission—and he left us,with _ — a consoling assurance that he has gone where I are neither disappointments, sorrows, nor] evils, and where all tears are wiped away. How loudly does the death of this youi man, snatched from the midst of friends when I he had but commenced going out and coming I in before those friends, call upon acquaint ances and associates, with years as himself, | to “ be ye al^ ready.” The writer’s prayer, he trusts, 4las not been vainly offered from this death may speak a voice that call more than one “wanderer home” of those ] whose blood was his strength in life, and whose flesh and bones are one with many he calledby a dearer than friendship snamol R. | COBBHAM CLASSICAL ATHENS, GA. mllE above school will _L term for 1855, on tin- I4tli The undersigned d. i _us for College, or give'such a coi tion ns the parent or guardiui There will be no diati uniform charge of nnd u» scholar ta< term'of five month He feels grateful to herepromises them, and new ever can be accomplished ' and constant watchfnlnei flatters himself that with and proposed reforms, he increased satisfaction. WILLI M — Nov 29—5t A GRAVE CHARGE ADMITTED.

The Washington Union, the Administration organ, not only admits the charge, but utters the following language in itsdelence: '•We, therefore, heartily commend Mr. Washington, of the Treasury Depart ment, for his activity and energy in the ^contribution alluded to, and *ve hope the good example mtj£ be followed through, /out tljc Union- We have before ha 1 occasionto speak terms of censure of l|je interference ot ho present administration in local eh-c- ion9.

Hon, Robert Toombs spent a portion of Monday last in our ci ty, and while at the Fulton House, in a pro miscuous crowd, where he knew hut few and but few knew him, a stalwart son of “old Kentuck” pitched into politics—was well posted up—expatiated largely about the noble position of his own State— said their politics were pure and their politicians patriotic—came on to Ten nessee—said llTat the American party were defeated there by the “ skin of the teeth”—that it was effected by “ unholy alliance” of demagogues—that Johnson was a mean, dirty demagogue—(he is too,) finally reached Georgia-—said that there were some npble Americans here— but th6se -low, sneaking, demagogues, Tcombs and Stephens, had sold tlfe* Whig party— he had as , soon tl^ay had stoh it—they had tflrf-gaified it awayto.' Johnson and Cobb—he understood that Stephens was a little tallow-faced pewk any how—thought Toombs might be a little better*looking personally, did’itt believe he was any better—they were botli the lowest class of demagogues.
