The Louisville Journal says that these secret societies “not only rule tho mass oflho Democra cy, bat art the mass of the D tii'*cracy in all the principal citio* and towns in tho West,’’ and it know* not how extensively they pervade tho comities. The Journal say a: Tho Mettled des.gu is to make this new secret organisation extend throughout the Union a id embrace the whole anti American party. In our own city of Louisville, it already oonsis'* ot two thousand members, according t' the public b ast of one of the regular Demoorakc organs at thi* point, and we ail know that two thousand ia the whole or about the \*'. »‘o ot tho anti Arnerioan strength of the city.

Tin* is the result of a greater proficiency as engraver* and printers, among the counterfeiters; and of loose law* on the subject of bank note plates. Genuine plates of exploded banking concerns, wtth the be*’ workmanship, have got into the hands of c mnierfeitera, by pur chase ; the names of the banks have been altered rstdily, so xs to be aim iar to that of a well estab lished bank. Thus the cotnmuui y is imposed upon by fraudulent tills, phi ted ireni the most ojegaupy engraved plates, trom our best art.st*. Some of our leading bank note engravers obviate the risk by refusing to yield p.s-esstou ot a bank note plate after its execution. They wi 1 contract to do ail the printing that may be required, bu, make it a preliminary rale tnat the p ate ska., re mam m their custody.

Wx a»ei the above language in our comment* upon the Atlanta HtpuU%can\ since which a mem ber of the Order ha© called our attention to the fallowing Platform, published In the Washington C/ryan ou the Id inst.—which we take pleasure in re-publishing for the information of all who fee l a y interest ic *hc subject. Wealladed iu the ft-ime art-alo to a Virginia platform—that was en tirely different from this, and wn- not accompanied by any came. We had not before seen the fol -1 wing; and a:> it wes first published on the fid in t, we presume Mr. Btlphenb had not seen it when he wrote his letter ou the 9tb inst. We hope every reader will sc»n it closely, de lib;ratfcly and fairly, and when he has done so, determine in his own mind, whether he has ever, in all Lis life, seen in any one documeut, such a string of uurnsuning generalities. With a single exception (that of excluding persons of foreign b.rth from office) they mean anything or nothing, 1 a A are bo broad, general and indefinite, that every man ia the United States, except a Hoces- 1 sionist, for the sake of Secession, will endorse \ them—if that single claure be excluded. Never J have wo seen such a document, it beats the Na tional Democratic platforms all hollow; in which resolutions on ail questions wore so framed as to bi voted for oordially and unanimously by Frce soiler- and Hccescionist*, Internal Improvement a id Anli Internal Improvement men, and Tariff aid Anti-Tariff men; who all returned to taeir respective homes and took positions a* opposite as the poles, and justified them -.lives by Ihe Baltimore platform. Never have wi seen a document in which the hand of the intriguing, arifui demagogue ia so distinctly, truth fully and boldly portrayed as in this ; and yet the v jry first paragraph seeks to gull .the people ty denouncing deuiagoguism. But wo are assured, that the National Conven t ai, which is to assemble in Philadelphia on the 5 h of June, w.li give to the world a sound, na tional, conservative platform. We shall, there s >re, patiently wail the result of its action, and in fie meantime, invite the reader’s attention to the fallowing extraordinary production of the Virginia Council, made through their committee : “The Convention of the Amkhioan Party ox Vino ini a, wnicn met at Winchester, on Tuesday, * ie 18. 1 of March, appointed the undersigned a mm It tee, to make publication, over their names, of the following: IlAfiia PRINCIPLES OF THE AMKHIOAN PARTY OP VIRGINIA. Determined to preserve our political institutions in their original purity and vigor, and to keep ■ (in nna-lukerated aurl uniumpaired by foreign liiii jonce, either civil or rel’gious, as well as by : »mo faction aud home domagogui.sm; and believ ing that an American policy, religious, politicuf, ituci commercial, necessary tor tho attachment of eso ends, wo shall observe and curry out in prac tiOd, the following principles; 1. That the suffrages ol the American people for political offices, should not be given to auy other . an those born on oar soil, and reared and ma turoff under the influence of our institutions. 2. Thatiuo foreigner ought to be allowed to excr -0 tho elective franchise, till he shall have resi led within the Uuited Hiules a sufficient length of .une to enable him to became acquainted with the rincipies and imbued with the spirit of our insti u 10ns, and until he shall have became thorough y identified with tho great interest* of our coun try. 8. That whilst no obstacle should be interposed o the immigration of all foreigners of honest and *ndastrious habits, nnd uii privileges and immuni losor jiyed bv any native citizens of our • >antry should be extended to all such immigrants, xcepl that of participating in any of our political dmiuistratious; yet all legal means should bo 1 ioplod to obstruct and prevent tho immigration >f the vicious and worthless, the critninul and pauper. 4. That tho American doctrine of religious tol erution, and entire absence of all proscription for ipioion’e sake, should be cherished as one of the very fundamental principles ol our civil freedom, and that any sect or party which beliovea ano maintains that any foreign power, religious or po ideal, ha* the right to control the conscience or liroct the coudcci of a freoman, occupies a posi- ion which is totally ut war with tho principles of ireodom of opinion, and which is mischievous iu is tendency, and which nrinciple, if carried into practice, would proTO wholly destructive of our religious aud civil liberty. 5. That tho Bible iu the hands of every free citi sen is the only permanent basis of ail true liberty and genuine equably. 0. That tho intelligence of tho people is noccfsa ry to the rigiit use and the continuance of our lib olios, civil and religious; hence the propriety and importance of tho promotion and fostering of all means of moral and inlollootual culture by some adequate and porinauout provision for general ed ucation. 7. That tl e doctrine of availability, now so prev alent nnd controlling, in the nomination of candi dates f.r office, in total disregard to all principles >f right, of truth, and of justice, is essentially wi r g, and shoula be by all good men condeinued. 8. That, a* a general rule, the same restrictions should bo proscribed to the exercise of the power ot removal from office, as are made neoussary to bo '( served in tho power of appointment thereto; and that executive influence and pnlronago should be scrupulously conferred and jealously guarded. 9. That the sovereignty of the btate* should be supreme in tiro exorcise cf all powers not express ly delegated to the federal government, and which may not be necessary aud proper to carry out the i-ewers so delegated, aud that this principle should ' observed and hold sacred in all organizations jfthe American r arty. 10. That ail sectarian intermeddling with politics •r political institutions, corniug from whatever nonrco it may, should be promptly resisted by all mch means aa seem to be necessary aud proper for thin end. 11. That whilst the perpetuity of the proseut form of the federal government of the United Slates is actually necessary forlhe propor develop ment of all the resources of this country, yet the principle of non-intervention, both on tho part cf he federal goven meat nnd of the several States o! the Union, iu the municipal affairs of each oth •r, is <■ sontial to peace and prosperity of our couu ry and to the wed being and permauenoe of our institutions, aud at the same time the only relia oie bend ot brotherhood and union. 12. The red republicanism and licentious indul gence in the enjoyment ot civil privileges, are as much to be feared and deprecated by all friends to well rega’ated government aud true liberty, as any of the forms of monarchy tnd depotiam. 18. That the true interests and welfare of tins country, the honor of this nation, the individual :ind [ nvato rights of its citiaens, conspire to de mand thrtt all other questions arising from party organizations, or from auy other source, should bo held subordinate to and in practice made to yield to the great principles herein promu’gated.

The numerous friend* oi this gentlemen in Geor gia, will learn wiih rogret, that he died at the resi dence of his brother, in Brooklyn, New York, on the 22nd instant. Mr. Caset was, for many year? a resident of this city and State, and where over known, was esteemed for his high integrity r.ud s dform courtesy iu all his relations, whether ■ti -mesa or social. His remains were taken to Khode Island for intorment. Destructive Fire in Hatches, Miss. —There was an ox.eu.-ivo fire in Natchez on the ISth instant, on used by the burning of the I irge and well-known "Natchez Foundry,” owned by Maurice Lisle, E-q. l'ho alarm was first given about a quarter before twelve o’clock, aud the engines were speedily on the ground, bat could do very little service, owing to the almost unprecedented scarcity of water in the immediate neighborhood. Steamers to Hamsck®.— A private letter from New York to the National Intelligencer states that Mr. Christian Hansen, of Brooklyn, aud others with whom he has associated, have determined to establish a line of steamers from New York to Hamburg, via England, Antwerp, Bremen, Ac., to run at present once a month, but ofteuer as soon as steamers can be bnilt for the purpose. The steamers will be constructed with especial refer ence to the accommodation of firet, second, and third claas passengers. The line will also afford mail facilities at a cheaper rate, and passengers will also be charged less than they now are on other it;es; so that the line will place it in the power of many to visit Europe who have been deterred from doing so by the expense of the voyage. The Arctic £ larch Vesseur.— Everything at present indicates an early departure of the Expe dition in search of Dr. Kane, aud his companions in the Arctic regions. The clipper bark Eringo has had her name changed to that of Release, and the Philadelphia built propeller is called the Arc tic. Assistant burgeon Elisha K. Kane, a younger brother of the absent explorer, is among the officer* of the Release. It is slated that not a single mem ber of the naval medical corpse has yet volunteer ed to accompany the Expedition, and it may be necessary to select a civilian to act in that capaci ty for the Arctic. These vessel*, it ie said, will sail about the Ist ol J uue. Death ox as Amkbioan jckgeon in the Russian Sxrticx.—Tne Providence Journal record* the death of Dr. Isaac Draper, Jr., an American sur geon who bas been employed in the Russian ser vice, aud who was the writer of various mteree.ing letter* which, from time to time, have been pub isked in the colnmns of that paper. He died at Sevastopol, on the 80th of March, of typhus fever, after an illness of four weeks. His funeral was attended with all the official marks of respect. The Providence Journal says that “Dr. Draper was the sou of Isaac Draper, Esq., 0 f South Attle borough, Mass. He was 88 years of age, and grsduated at Brown University, in tbe class of 1844. He was a man of fine talent* and education, improved by travel and study abroad.

We have received no telegraphic dispatches to • j day andjare dependent upon the press for the latest r j news from Virginia. Our dates from Richmond 1 j are to Saturday morning. The Whig of Saturday I is silent on the subject ol the election, although ' j on Friday it anticipated a Know Nothing triumph. ; The Enquirer, of Saturday however, says: 1 “The returns conunued to come in most glori ously.

Tne Legisla lure is <y r amly safe.” Tne Dispatch says that Millson, Goode, Bocock, , and Caskie are all elected by handsome majorities to Congiee , and speaking of the returns, says: 1 “We have given the returns that have reached us. They show ©cnaiderabie variations upon former votes, but leave no doubt of the election of Wise by a decided majority. Wise has gained largely upon Gov. Johnson’s majorities, while Flournoy has, iu several sections, gained conside rably on Bomnert vote, with which we have com pared.’* A dispatch from Washington, dated Friday evening, also says: “Tne general impression here prevails that Wise l§ elected. The Democrat* freely offer beta.” A gentleman iu Charleston has received the fol lowing letter from an intelligent and well-inform ed gentleman, dated Pobt&mouth, Vine inis, May 06, 1-56. Friend I p'-omiaed to send you the retarni of oar Bute elections. We received a telegraphio dispatch this evening, that Wise had 80CV majority in the eastern part of the State. Caskie, the Democratic candidate in the Richmond district, is elected over the Know Nothing candidate by 500 majority. Miilaon, Goode aud Powell, all Democrats, are elected. We have received returns from five districts, and the Democrats have elected four out of five, hav ing loot one by a small majority. Wise’s majority will be iO,OcOin the State. The Know Nothings acknowledge their downfall. . I open my letter to state that we have received a message that the three counties that the Know Nothings bet would give Flournoy a majority, went for Wise by 6,000 majority. Halifax county, Flournoy’s native county, gave Wise 658 majority. A reliable dispatch from Washington, sa,s that Wise will be elected by at least 18,000 majority. Rockingham county also gave Wise 2000 majority, and Fluanna county 2000. The Richmond Vespatch of Monday contains returns, “partly official and partly reported,” from seventy nine counties and towns, which give Wise 6,298 majority. Sixty five counties remain to be heard from, whioh gave i ixbck a mrjurity of 4,663. A like vote for Wisb will mak3 his ma jority 10,956. CONGRESSMEN ELECTED. Ist District—Thomas H.

The previously high reputation of Mr. Bancroft as a scholar and historian, will receive accession from the publication of this really superior work, iu which he appears most successfully in the char acter of an essayist, philologist and mental philoso pher. The book is divided into four distinct heads, viz: Essays; Studies iu German Literature; Studies in History, and Occasional Addresses; under each of which the stqdent and refiective reader will find matter of much interest and de serving ot careful perusal. The volume is a royal octavo, in Harper & Brother s oest style. For sale by Thos. Richards & Son. A Journey through the Chinese Empire. By M.

Notwithstanding all the “ outside barbarians” have said and written concerning the Celestial Empire, it is yet to the great mass of other na tions almost Una incognito . Little ia known of its geography, agricultural productions, climate, com merce and trade, or of the manners, easterns and habits of its people. M. Hue, the author of the present very entertaining and instructive volumes, has had great and peculiar opportunities of becom iug intimately acquainted with the country and people, and the work will do muoh to enlighten the public. It may be had at the Book store of Thos. Rich ards & Hon. History for Boys; or, Annals of the Nations of Modem Europe. By John Edgar, author of the “ Boyhood of Great Men,” Ac. Harper & Bbo.’b, New York: 1855. Iu this valuable little book, the history of each of the different European States is sketched brief ly aud lucidly; and while the author endeavors to present his fact* in an intere*ting manner, he seems equally scrupulous to preserve perfeot accu racy. History is an important branch of educa tion, and one, we fear, which is too much neglect ed. In the hope of turning the attention of our youth to it, wo therefore heartily commend this handsome and attractive volume to both sexes— g<rls, as well as boys, and to their parents and teachers.

An American View of Mexico.—The national Intelligencer is indebted to a friend for the fol lowing extract of a letter from an intelligent gen tleman, a citizen of the United State*, now in the city of Mexico, to his friend in Washington: “Mexico, May, 8, 1855.—The state of things ic thtt country is, compared with that existing in our own, awful and difficult to describe. Santa Anna, surrounded by a pow«rful faction, has naive.sal power. He alone makes and annals all laws at pleasure ; is the urbiter in all suits brought before the tribunals in which the government is con cerned. He removes any of tho authorities when lie sees fit to do so, and replaoes them with others. He ordered levies of troops to be made at any mo ment, spends the public money, and is accounta ble to no person; in fact, ho can do here whatever he pleases; and what he pleases to do is to keep about 45,000 men under arms, impose forced loans, live shut up in his barracks, (palaoe) see fifty or sixty persons e <ch day, be cajoled by them and called Altes,a Serenisima , oppress and trample on everybody, and pocket a lot of cash. “The party opposed to him live in the moun tains aud reti ed parts of tho country, (Heaven knows how they maintain themselves,) refuse to become subject to this one man power, and sup port a sufficient number ot men to annoy Santa Anna and keep him harassed iu a manner that knows no bounds. “There is another set or faction, who, setting aside all laws, live by indiscrimiato rapine and ol under. “Then there is the Church, with unlimited sway over all, exacts from all, a> d refuses the consola tio n of religion, even in the hour of death, unless thepaymeus for the same be provided for before hand. “And, laat, there is the people. Those who have capital hoard it, and business is at astand.— The mass of the population, wretchedly poor, clothed in rags and half starved, are forced to live in idleness, for the want of labor, which ia denied them because the condition of things does not per mit of the sa»e investment of capital in any under taking, and vice and crime stalk abroad injopen an day. “Santa Anna left this city two days ago for Mor elia, in order, it is said, to put down the revolution in tne department of which that oity is the capital. Whilst he is there all will be peace and quietness, and when he goes away the revolutionists will take revenge on all who shall have treated him with common decency. “I could dwell for hours on the horrors of this revolution, whioh has lasted for over two years; but let it pass; your own imagination must fill up the otulineabove given you.” Buenos Atku. —Oar advices from Buenos Ayres are to the 80th of March. A correspond ence between onr Minister to this State, James A. Pedan Esq., and Senior Ireneo Portela, Minister of Foreign Affaire has taken plaoe in relation to the difficulty that lately oocurred at Buenos Ayres be tween three American ship Captains and a Sentry, in which, Captain J. Lincoln, of the bark Marion, was stabbed by the soldier. The Buenos Ayres authorities aver the Amerioan ship Captains were in fault, and incurred the penalty of disobedience to orders. It is, however, admitted; that the sol dier in question exceeded the bounds of his an thority, and satisfaction will no doubt be given. Captain Lincoln was seriously though not danger ously wounded. Newark, N. J., is now estimated by Mr. B. T. Pierson, tbe publisher of the City Directory, to contain a population of 57,800 persons. In 1850 the United States made the population 83,304. Mr. Pierson’s calculations have, in former in stances, been nearly accurate, aud so may he re ceived now. Newark is entirely a manufacturing p ace, and its rapid increase shows that our manu facturing cities are all destined to become great cities. In 1~86 tbe population of Newark was 8017; in ISBO it was 10,995; in 1885 H was 18,801; 1848, 85,488. Kailxoad OrxNXD. — Tne Chicago and Milwaukee Kailroad was completed on.

The Bcflener Bnltwti Tte Savannah Republican pablitfces whit is | b‘jled a “ Review of the Hon. Ale*. H. Stephens’ j Letter” on “ Know Kothingism." He enters on | his wort is “ one of the friends of Sam,” and of ( fers what he desires to be considered ‘‘a few die | passionate observations” on the letter of Mr. Stephens. In this he evinces the true spirit and temper in wnich all discussions should be conduct ed. And in the same spirit, let us see tow the ar gument of Mr. Stephens stands after the “ disseo tion” of this writer. He says: That we may be the better understood, we pro pose to dissect Mr. Stephens’ letter and its argu ment, in the following order: J. The close character or secrecy of the Ameri can Party. 2. The anti Catholic feature of the Order. 5. The foreign element, including the charge cf Abolitionism. 4. The origin ot the movement and its relation to Labor and Capital. 6. The action of the State Council at Maoon and the Kansas bill. These are the only points on whiah this cham pion of “ Sam” yuan* issue with Mr. Stephens—than how stand the merits of the issnee as he presents them according to his own argument ? On the first, be agrees with Mr. Stephens. He says “ the secret feature cf the Order vs objectionable,"— Chet is in plain English, 1 suppose, he means to admit that it is wrong. This is worse than begging the question. It is an open admission, that the very first step taken by those who enter the Order is wrong. How many latal errors in private, as well as pubiio life, would have been avoided if the first wrong step had never been taken 1 On this begin ning point, then “ Sam,” by bis friends, admits that Mr. Stephens is right. Let that be remembered. Let it be pondered and 11 dispassionately” consid ered. And, let all who may be hereafter solicited to join, recollect that it is conceded , tbat the first step w wrong, and that on this point Mr. Stephens is right. How stands the merit of Mr. Stephens’ argu ment on the second point made ? Here too “Sam,” the veiled, dnmb oracle, who only speaks as the secret ministers at his altar utter their own senti ments through his mnte lips ard inanimate bead, to delude and mislead a credulous people, is com pelled, even by these juggling priests, to utter the truth, and acknowledge that on this point also Mr. Stephens is right. “2. We agree with Mr. Stephens also in regard to the anti-Catholic feature of the order." So says this Keviewer. This is again worse than begging the question. It is giving it up. This is one of the corner-stones of “Sam’s Temple." Without it those who ereoted It know that it could not stand. Towards it they may well exclaim, “Thou art Peter, and upon this rock I build my church.”— This writer says, and says truly, tbat “many of the truest native Americans are Catholics." Mr. Ste phens uttered the same great undeniable truth.— And yet this Reviewer, while admitting the truth ot Mr. Stephen's assertion, knowß that one of the , very first oaths administered to the noviciate as he is taken behind the curtain to be admitted into the “secret mysteries" of “Sam’s orgies,” is to swear that he will never vote for any one of those “truest native Americans” that were even born upoa the soil I . Why eutioo men to take a wrong stop to getinto the order, and then after getting committed, swear them to take another and a worse one t Answer me this, Mr. Reviewer. Ia this the BOrt of “reforma tion which is now nnder the lead of “Sam,” sweeping over the country from Maryland to California, and from Georgia to Oregon, to pat an end to the reign of small men and eupprese corrup tion ?” If ao, may Heaven save us ; trom each re formation as J3e, or those who “bow the knee” to Him. promise, either in morals or government. Most dispassionately is this inquiry propounded, and most dispassionately may it be considered by, not only all those who have taken the first false step, but especially by all those who have not. The third point Btated in the Review is “the Foreign element, including the charge of Aboli tionism.” On this point, the Reviewer says: “It ia readily oonfeeeed” (italics are my own) “that many of our most valuable citizens are foreigners, or the descendants of foreigners.” Well, in the name of all candor, did Mr. Stephens say more ! He certainly is right hero again. “Sam’s rider” in this instance also, as his illustrious predecessor —Balaam of old—is compelled to speak the truth, whether against his will or not I cannot say, but certainly it is uttered against the creed of the or der. For, if “many of our most valuable citizens are foreigners,” why proscribe them '< Why swear the members of the order never to vote for any one of this class of most valuable citizens for any office ? “ Worth makes the man, and want of it the fellow,” whether native or adopted —whether Frotestant or Catholic. On this branch, therefore, of the third point, namely—the proscription of all foreigners as a class, Mr. Stephens is “readily confessed” to be right. But the Roviewer included in this third item “ the charge of Abolitionism.” Well, what doeß he Bay in ooutroverMen of what Mr. Stephens said 1 Hot one word I Mr. Stephens said, this Order at the North, where it originated, and whence it has been imported into this Btate, is utterly un sound on the slavery question ; he pointed to the acts of the paity in the Massachusetts, New Hamp shire and other Northern Legislatures where it is in the ascendancy. He said that not one member of the Order, elected to the next Congress from the entire North, was favorable to or would vote to ad mit Kansas as a slave Stale, if she applies for admis sion at the next Congress. He pointed to the fact that Gen. Shieldß, the gallant Irishman, who was ever true to us, and whose only fault is that he happened to be born in the land of Curran, Grat tan and Emmet, had been drives from the Senate of the United States by the “ worthy members" of this new Order in Illinois, to give plaoe to Turn bull, one < f our worst enemies, barely because he was a native. Are any of these facts denied—or even controverted t Then, in them Mr. Stephens is admitted to be right by tacit acquiescence. But this Reviewer has said something on this point that deserves to be noticed—and it shall be. It is this; “ Wo know i' is the policy of the sbolitiomst and the demagogue to encourage this exodus from IbeOld World. Willi the help of their “ Emigrant Aid Societies," the moment a foreigner arrives at Boston or New York, be is translated as fast as steam can oarry him to the Northwest, and there converted into a oitixen and a—freesoiler. In this way free Stateß are year after year oarved out of the territory of the Northwest, and abolition sena tors and representatives manufactured for Con gress.” Now “we” do not know any sueh thing as that stated in the above extract, nor do “we” admit it to be true. What Senator was ever elected from any one of the Northwestern States by foreign Free-soil votes? Let him be named. Wore Bright and Pettit, from Indiana, “manufactured” in the way here stated* Were Douglass and Shields, from Illinois, sent to the Senate by Fres-soilers ? Were Cass and Stuart eleoted from Michigan by Free-soilere ? Wore Dodge and Jones, from lowa, sent to the Senate by foreigners who were landed at Boston and New York and translated as fast as steam could carry them to that new State in the far North west, where they were immediately converted into citisens and Free soilersf No, air I No, Birl And if they were, we and the whole Sooth have reason to thank our stars for this prooees of “manufacturing” new States, as well as several new Senators too I It is true that all these Senators named, true, and pa triotic os they ate, owed their eleotion in part, and to a considerable extent too, to the votes of good and loyal oitixeuß, “manufactured” according to our naturalization lows; but they were not Fret toilert, though foreigner! by birth. And there is not one of the twenty one true men elected to the next House of Representatives from the entire North, who is not indebted to a considerable ex tent likewise for his election, to the same class of voters. Where wonld Bichardson be but for them ? These true and noble hearted naturalised. citizens in the Quincy Distriot, in Illinois, rallied to his standard and that of taeir adopted country in the last fall election, when the native traitcre of that State were moving heaven and earth to be it him lor supporting the Kansas bill; and they, with true native! succeeded in electing him, in despite of all the opposition 01 the “Know Noth ing” hosts. Where would Harris and Willis Allen be! Where would the whole twenty one be, but for that class of voters? Who was it that cut down Dodge, of lowa, for his manly, constitution al, and national stand in the Benate on the great question of Southern Rights and the Union! — Who elected the “Know Nothing” abolition Sen ator, Harlan, in his stead! The; were the same class cf men who defeated Shields in Illinois with Trumbull; they were neither Catholics nor for eigner*—but they were native “Know Nothings,” “to the manor bom I” Bome foreigners by birth may have been enticed to fight cnder their fiag, as some are said to be doing further South, but the great majority of the foreign vote, as it is called, throughout the entire North-west, has ever been cast in favor of the constitutional rights of the South. It is cast lor those men who, by their votes in Congress, sustain our rights; and with them the constitution and the union of the States. And it is for this, smongst. other reasons, that they have been “hunted do an," and are now being “hunted down,” by the native “Know Nothings” in the North, from Maine to Oregon. How cruel, then, is it for Southern men to join in this most unnat ural war 1 On the fourth point, the Reviewer says, that Mr. Stephens has assigned two osusee to the move ment entirely incompatible with each other j” this at beet is nothing more then s difference of opin ion upon a matter that has nothing to do with the merits of the question of the movement itself.— Mr. Stephens, perhaps, sees very clearly how 'he Northern laborer may conceive just as this Ke viewer argues, that an abrogation of the naturali sation laws would atop immigration, and hence leave him without competition, while the shrewd capitalist understands perfectly well if the abio gation can be effected, that immigration will not only not be stopped, but be greatly stimulated, and that he can then not truth the vottmg laborer, but almply dismiss him and employ a foreigner who can have no vote with him at the polls. All this msy seem very clear to Mr. Stephens, and yet not be seen by his Reviewer any more than it is by that deluded class that began tne movement, and who, as Mr. Stephens thinks, will be the viotims of it in the end. And lastly, on the fifth point. What says the Reviewer in defence of the action of the Macon Convention t Does he even pretend to sustain the Resol"ti n I Not at all. He backs nght out from it. He says the “ Resolution was adopted and pub lished, art U> define the position of the party in Georgia.” Weil, if not, what in the name of sense was it adopted and published for I Was it a feeler or what was it, if it was not the embodied senti ment of the order epos the questions it refers to f I Can any man who was in the Convention tell the people what it was adopted and published for, if it s 1 were not todetine their position upon those qnes ,’ tions which are now of vastly more interest to the J whole country, and the South in particular, than - all others oombinedl “But,” says this Reviewer, - “it was adopted and pushed byway of intma - . lion to the order in the hfcrthern Stalls, that it 1 mua oocupy national ground on the subjielof - siavery, if it would secure the co operation of the ■ South.” What a lame and impotent excn.e 1 An ■ ini motion indeed 1 Bold intimation this, that they must occupy national ground on this Bubject to ■ secure their 00-operation 1 Why, have they not already got your co operation it running down for eigners, and Catholics, though true to the Constitu tion ! Don’t you hold your charters from them—get your oelha from tnecs—and get your name, your te ertt signs and —yonr very eiiatence aa a party from them* W bat more 00-operation or affilia tion do they want* Butlt ia an mfimofion I suppose, that they moat do something to dear tbair skirts of the fool odium which their moat mischievous seta bava already brought down upon them, or you will quit—that is it, is it 1 Weil, what does this “ intimation ,” which is heralded by ao signifi cant a "must" amount to I Nothing more or less than that the Georgia Know Nothings will oo operate with the Order at the North if they will agree to stand on this Resolution. Is not this so f And ia not this defining the position of the Geor gia Know Nothings I Why any shujling about it f Ia it because it is found that the Resolution will not stand the of day I This writer ssys that Mr. Stephens knew that the Georgia “Know toothings" are aa sound on the slavery question as he is, and that he knows that this Resolution was not intended aa a blow at the Kansas bill. To this Mr. Stephens would doubtless ssy bs knows no suoh thing. For he has shown beyond any room for cavil, tbat no man who adopts that Resolution as his sentiment and rule of action can vote for the admission ol Kansas aa a slave State, if she proßonts a slave constitution, as she will most certainly do, if let alone, under her present organic law. Do the Georgia “Know Nothings,” then, intend to stand upon this Resolution ? That is the question. From the intimation of this Reviewer it would seem that they do not—that they did not intend thereby to define their position. It is to be hoped that tbey did not. But was Mr. Stephens wrong in supposing that tbey did t Heretofore when parties met and adapted tesolutions and gave them to the pubiio, it has always been taken for granted that they meant thereby to define their positions. But it seems we are to have s new order of things for the future. When grand “Counoils” hereaf ter meet, it is to be understood that when they say one thing they mean another, or nothing at all. This is the first fruits in this State of that great “reformation” which is “to put an end to the reign of small men and inppreas corruption.” But not to prolong this article—in oonclusion to sum up—how stand the merits of the issues be tween Mr. Stephens and his Reviewer npon the fits points stated—this was the sole object of this communication. On tbe first—The 41 secresy feature”—Mr. Ste phens is admitted to be right. Ou the seoond—The 44 Anti-Catholic feature”— he is also admitted to be right. On the third— 44 The Foreign element”—it is “rea dily confessed that many of our most valaable citi z3ns are foreigners by birth, or dei3endants of foreigners”—and of oourse ouyhtnot te be put un der the ban of civil proscription. On the fourth—The 44 Origin of the movement” —tbe Reviewer sees a 44 gulf” where Mr. Stephens sees a perfect consistency of thing*. On the fifth—“ The Maoon Resolution”—Mr. Ste phens has shown that so friend of the principles of the Kansas bill oould stand upon that resolu tion—and this the Reviewer does not pretend to deny. Then, upon all the iuuee joined save one, and that s mere matter of opinion, Mr, Stephens, by 44 Bam’s own friend,” is admitted to be right.— 44 Let justice be done though the Heavens fall.” Aristides. For the ChronioU dt Sentinel, Augusta, Ga., May 25, 1855. 1 have read with no ordinary interest the article of “Melanothon” in your paper of this morning, and am under lasting obligations to the pure and disinterested patriot who has aroused me, and I trust not a few of our native population, to a sense of their danger. The fact is, I am somewhat in the predicament of a poor unfortunate client, who appeared in court after having received a drubbing, and did not know how bad he had been beat until his lawyer made his speech 1 I remember some time since, my attention was called to the importance of the two great ques tions which the new party was then, as now, agitating. But 1 happened to ba furnished about the time with the most reliable reli gious statistics, and looking over them found, somewhat to my surprise, that our Method ist brethren alone, numbered five to the Catholics one, and I thought it safe to conclude that with a few Baptists scattered up and down the creeks, about our towns and villages, and the Presbyte rians, Episcopalians, Ac., &3., to help, we should be able to prevent the Romanists from mining the country. About the same time a highly reapeota ble gentleman, (now 1 believe a K. N.,) remarkable for oorrect iutormation, told me that the foreign vote of the United States was a mere drop in the bucket; so I thought it safe to lie down in peace and q iiet, believing that the country was in no danger. But 1 find that 1 have been laboring un der a sad delusion. Our native population, as “Melanothon” has demonstrated, are not what they used to be. Tney dare not shake off the trammels of party, even when their oountry is in imminent danger. Tnough bearing the name, and born of freemen, it is sad to think that they are poor degene.ate sons, and dare not meet together publioly to proclaim their coun try’s wrongs, and manfully resolve to redress them; but yon must look out for some old de serted building, and by the light of some sputter iDg candle, draw them in, and swear them hard and strong, before you can depend on them. True, they have a large and overwhelming majority in the land, but they have not sense enough to see it. Two or three hundred Priests and their few followers have frightened them out of their souses, and it will never do to trust them in open fight; our penons, and what is worse, our property would be endt ogored; snd the necessity of secretly meeting together snd endeavoring to devise some plan by which we oan get rid of catfish-mouthed politicians, and the “Old Pope’s” emissaries, is no longer a question. I know that we Bhall have some trouble in keep ing out of our order suoh ohaps, for the practice has been not to—-to but to.prevaricate a little, and thereby sanction what wo do most cor dially hate, but we must make an effort to save the oountry, for we wero born on the soil, have grabbled into it in our childhood, and know how to appreciate it, and are firmly persuaded that none should rule it but those who have rolled in it.— The first thing to bo done is to put some one in the place of Mr. Stephens, imbued with the prin ciples of the order, for be is radically wrong—iß foolish enough to believe that Englishmen, French men, Germans, and Irishmen, should be allowed to vote after they have been in the country six years, and taken the oath of allegiance—is almost, if not as stupid on this subject as the old Fathers of the Republic; and 1 really believe he would as soon see Shields iB the Senate of this great nation, as Senator Wi.son, a native of that proud old Bay State, whose receat Legislature have immortalized themselves almost unanimously. We want an upright, plain, honest man in his place, like “Melancthon” must be; keen and clear sighted—who sees as Distinctly as the old suitor who saw the eye of the eyeless needle the girl gave him to thread—thatthia country is about to be overturned by the Jesuits. Breathei there the man with face so red, Who n ver to himself hath said. This is my own, my native Dnd! If such there breathe— maik him well— He’s a foe to Liberty—and the puriuit of Irtekmen.

The CoßMlcnttenaltai ••< “ T"e Paramount Queetloa of the Day.” The Oonetitvtionatut says “the paramount quee ion of the day” is the Kansas question—in other twords, the admission of Kansas with a constitu tion recognizing slavery ; and pledges the National Democracy to be right on that question ; and pro poses to Mr. Stephens to join them on their plat form. Now a part of the platform of the National Democracy is the support of the administration of President Pieroe. Can Mr. Stephens mount that platform ? Or will the OmetitutionaUet dismount it ? One or the other must be done before the Union, or rather, to use the fashionable language of the day, “the fusion” he speaks of, can take place. Mr. Stephens says that President Pierce sent “a freeeoil Governor (Seller)” to Kansas “to use his executive influence to prevent” the in troduction of slavery that the people “have driven him from the Territory a. they ought to have done.” We may fairly infer from what has appeared in the Washington Union, that “the freesoil Governor” will be sent back. It is not known whether Mr. Stephens wiU accept the invi tation of the OoneUMumalit; it is believed that he will not. If he should, there must be either an abandonment of principle, or a retraction of hm charge against President Pieros. But the (Wi tutionaliet has invited him without requiring the retraction; and is there lor. willing to take him with that charge ringing from his lips. In this the Omstitutionmlut has shown a willingness to aban don principle for the ask. of making an accession of strength to its party Principle! what is prin ciple! lia something, nothing, anything, which can subserve party intereat.

Editor :—1 have read several , epiies to the Know-Nothing letter of Mr. Stepson?, but not one that amounts to au answer; fcr I make a diulinc -1 lion between t be two terms. Wban the uiau ot ’ the cannon bears the echo to the report of his gun, that’s a reply; but when he is killed by a return to his shot, that’s an answer. It is not my intention to inflict upon your readers any thing like a review of the special pleadlnis of those who have undertaken the difficult tsek of answering that letter, but will simply su!a few plain questions for the consideration c*: all thinking men. I understand one of the principles of this new organization to be, that “Americans shall rnlo America;” and another, that no Catholic or for eigner can be received as a member of the order. Now I wish to isk if a man born in Augusta, of Catholic parents, and a communicant in the Cath olic church, ia an American or not ? if he i-, by what show of consistency can ho be excluded f- om office ? According to ail rules of common socse, he cannot be, till tbey shall have changed their motto, ao as to mako it read, “ Protestant Ameri cana shall rule America.” Again, suppose any of this order, while in office, should renounce me Protestant, and embrace the Catholic religir:..— What is to be done in such a case 1 Or is the conscience so strongly kopt under lock and key by the rules of the order that such cases cannot occurs If it be true, as the Know Nothings affect to believe, that the liberties of the country are in great danger from the foreign population, how is the exclusion of a few of them from office to re move that dangor i 1 have thought, and still think, that men out ot office are as fully compe tent to originate, and as potential in carrying out measures, as those who are in. A good deal is said about the great and good La Fayette. Ohl bnt what a good man he was, to utter those words of eantion 1 "If the liberties of this country are ever destroyed, it will be by the Roman Clergy." If lam to understand from all this floaiiah that La Fayette hold opinions identi cal with those of tho Know Nothings, I would like to ask some member of the order one little question; but that I may not bo thought inquisi tive, I will tsk it sub rosa. Suppose it wore pos sible lor La Fayette to revisit tho earth, and he were to make application fir admission into your order, how many white balls would he receive?

For the yoar ending in April, 1865, under tho now steam tire engine sys tem, there wore IC4; loss $120,816; insurance $84,881 ; estimated loss over insurance $55,985.

Prom Ihe Falls or the Missouri.— I The Sioux Pre parlog lor iVar. We copy the following from the St. Louis Re publican of Saturday last: Mr. John O To vis, who has parsed several months at Fort Union, and other trading peats on the Missouri, and Mr. Galpin, of Fort Pierre, ur rived in this city yesterday. In company with Mr. Culbertson, special Indian Ageul lor tho Black Feet. Mr. Tevis left Fort Union on the 10th of April. He represents the navigation ot the ii or as exceedingly ditiioult, even for Mackinaw boa’s, and trom its source to the mouth ot tho Platte it was lower than has ever been known. During the month of April, not a drop of ram foil in their whole course of travel. The winter had been very mild, and little or no enow had fall n. In consequence of the mildness of the winter, the trude in Buffalo robes had greatly diminished, and comparatively a small number will bo brought to market. The herds of Buffalo wixpcrM in t o mountains, aud the Indians, located on tho river-, could not go out to hunt them, aud hence the diminished supply. On tbe 18th ot April, Mr. Culberlsou snd Mr. Tevis fell in with a portion of tho Vanklonnais band of the Sioux, a short distance below tho Roe viflagc. They were detained there two days, a; d Mr. Culberson had a long “Ulk” with them. Os this talk, Mr. O. has sent us the following memo randa : They reported that they had, a few before, left the hostile Sioux congregated in grutt numbers in the vicinity of the Rainy Butte, (about two days’ march West of tho Roo village, aud about four South of tho month of the Yellow Stone.) At that point much the largest portion, in fact nearly all the tribes of tho Missouri and Platte Sioux, were collecting—expecting, also, t be joined by the v hayctines and Arrapahots, which, in all probability they will bo. Thsy w. 1 number 1700 lodges, or 8000 warriors, at the lov. o t calculation. They avow their determination o carry on au ex emanating war, not only again the troops sent out to oppose them, but to put to death evoiy white man they may meet, whether a trader or not. They also inc.udo the OroAs, Gros Ventres of tho Missouri, or Minetarees, aud Ansineboines, among their enemies. Since the defeat or massacre ot tlie detachment of the United States troops under Lieut. G rat tun, at Fort Laramie, these Indians imagines that th« y can easily overcomo any white force that .may bo sent against them. They avow a determination to allow no emigrauts to pats through or near tho r country, and will destroy all who attempt it. Thoir first intention is, to hover around tho emigrant route in small parlies. Tho main baud will await , the coming of the troops. During tho last win’er a band of Sioux, number ing between two and three hundred picked wur rios, attacked an Assinoboine camp wniio all tl active men were out hunting, and only a few old men and boye—not more than forty in all—ore-r.t home. These lew, however, kept tho Sioux w r riore at bay nn'il their hunteis roturuod. Tho latter, although not equal in number to the Sioux, routed and drov > them off, killing 3 warriors, one a chief of note. The Aaaiueboines loßt 8 women. Still these Sioux Indians, sinoo tho massacre ; t Laramie, conceivo the whites to bo contemptible cowards, aod do not believe any account which is given to them of tho power cf our Government or the efficiency of our troops; r.nd '.hoy exptet to drive them as they would u herd ot buffaloes.— This, Mr. Galbertsou remarks, i.- no exaggeration. Tne baud wc*. met, a part of tho Yanctonna were retreating out ol tho way ot tho war to the east side of the Missouri—professing friendship, for tho whites, and refusing to j >iu it: tho war.— Yet they pressed the boats of die company into their service, detaining them for two com polling the men to cross thoir baggage and them selves over the river. They did no other injury. All the band of the Sicnx are engaged in this outbreak, except the Lower Yanctocs and a per tion of the Yunctonnais. After the above was written, we had a conversa tion with Mr Galpin, the chief of the iJompan>’s trader-at Fori Pierre. Hu has long boon a rt. i de it in the heart of the Sioux country, knows them well, aud spent the wbo'e of last winter with them. Ho thinks that the number of rdoux rep*. - sented to have been assembled at Rainy Butte s greatly magnified—that they could not exceed fi hundrei lodges—and that the hostility manifest* d towards the whites, according to the report of t:.e Yauctonnaie, is not so general as is stated. Ijs two months after tbe massacre of G-attan’s com pany, th re was great excitement throughout Inc nation ; but it died away, and the disposition of the Indians is to be at pe vee, with the whites. The Platte Brules are an exc ption to this feeling : they are hostile to the waites. It was this portion of the bioax that were concerned in the massacre of Grattan and his men. Alts ough Mr. Galpin does not credit the reports of a.determination to m ke war upon our troops and citizens, he still thinks that the proposed military expedition into that country will nave an excellent effect, and ought to be prosecuted. The agents of the United States have always repievented that, if tbe Indians did not behave themselves, a large military force would be Bent amoEg them, but as this has not been done, begin to look upon all such statements with doubt of our ability to do it. Fort Pierre, it will be recollected, ha 9 been selected as one of the prin cipal posts to be occupied by the proposed milita ry expedition. Mr. Galpin represents the winter as having been remarkable mild. Very little snow bad faller ,but he says tbat we may expect a rise in the river in two or three weeks, as there is always enough snow in the mountains, remaining from year to year, to produce this effect.
