It is this' that a man can voto at any election, in every county in tho State in which ho has land, (eighty acres, we think,) so that a rioh man may vote in every county in the State, if he could get to them, and there are about one hundred and forty counties in the State, and some of them do vote several timos in every exciting election.

Stephen* to the next Congreea, convened in the Court Koom to day at \)4 o’clock. Tbe meeting was organized by calling Thomas Johnston, Esq. to the Chair, and appointing Low eilyn A. Nelms Secretory. The object of the meeting was briefly explained by Thomas W. Thomas, Esq., who then intro duced tho following Preamble and Kesolutions : Whereat, The intelligence has reached us that the lion. Alexander U. Stephens, in obedience to tho wish ol tha people of tho Btb Distric , baa con sented to become a candidate for the next Con- * rb De o'ved, That we hail with pride and pleasure this tie.orn.ituition, and we witi use all honorahlo means to secure his election. Keeolced, That in Mr. Stephens wo reoogmze the far-seeing statesman, whose sagacity and thorough devotion to our rights aud interst* have been equal to every emergouoy. Keeolced, That we are proud to -new. and the whole Union have been Drought to acknowledge that the Bth District of Georgia gave to the House of ttepresentativea iu tbe last Congress, its ableßt defender ot tho Constitution end of the rights ot the South. , „ Keeolced, That we desire to eay to our fellow- Oitixeus of tho North iu soberness aud truth, that w* are resolved to adhere at every hazard and to tho last extremity to the determination so solemnly made by Georgia in her Convention of Deoember 1850, and especially to that part of it in these words: That the Slate ol Georgia will aLd ought to reaist even (as a lasi icsort) to a disruption 01 every tie whion binds her to the Union any action of Con gress upon the subjeot of slavery iu the Distnct ol Columbia, or in places subject to the janadicuon f Congress incompatible with the salety, the do mestio tranquility, th* right* and the honor or the sitivehoidirg Sta.es ; or any refusal to admit aa a Male any Territory Hereafter applying because of tne existence of slavery theroin ; or any act prohibiting tho introduction of slavos into New Mexico and Utah ; or any act repelling or materi ally modifying tee laws now in force lor the re oovery of fugitive slavos ; or any aot supprea-ing tho stave trade between tho slaveholdiug elates. Keeolced, That tho people of Kan as in their efforts to fix their own domestic institutions to mil themselves, have our warmest sympatmes; and in uny trouble they may gat Into in oarrying Yv.o effsot their just and constitutional rights they shall have our undivided Bupport. Keeolced, That we hereby repudiate all tellow bip und conueetton with all politicil organizations North and South wbo tail or refuae to stand upon the principles of the foregoing Eesolutions. Keeolced, That we hereby invite Mr. Stephens to address the people of Elbert County on tbe *m July next at Klberton, aud th* Chairman appoint u Committee of five to make arrangement* for a J 'oo burbacuj. Thomas W. Thomas and William U. Mclntosh, Eaqa., addressed the meeting in Bupport of tbe Kesolutions urging th* importance of sustaining Mr. Stephens with unanimity, and showing hiß great Borvieeaiu defending aud strengthening th* Constitutional rights of the South and the insti tution of Slavery. They also brought to view the struggle that ia now going ou in Kansas, and the crisis that will probably come upon the country when she applies for admission ; and urged upon tho people the necessity of united end harmonious action iu auttainiug the principle* leid down by tho Georgia Convention of 1850. K.ibert Hester, Esq., also advooated the resolu tion* iu a abort apeeoh with this qualification, that while be was now in isvor of Mr. Stephen’s elec tion, event* might arise which would induce him to vole tgainst hi* election, a* it was woll known he was opposod to the American Party. This ex planation he made iu justice to himself. Mr. Thomaa replied that he, and he aupposed every other eitiaen would vote for the resolutions with the same qualification. Events might ari»o whioh would indues him to voto against Mr. Stephens; remarking, byway of illustration, that it Mr. Ste phens came out against standing by th* Georgia Platform, or against admitting Kansas aa a a'ave State, or in favor of adhering to any abolition party, North or South, he would most certainly vote against him, sud would do all ha oould to defeat his eleotion, notwithstanding the pledge to tho contrary contained in the Kesolutions. On motion, the Kesolutions were unanimously adopted. On motion, the meeting adjourned eine die. Thomas Johnston, Chm’n. Llxwslltn A. Nelms, Seo’y. Meeting in Henry. MoDoroc.h, Jcme sth, 1656. At a large and entbnaiastio meeting this day held in this village parsnant to previous notice : Col. A. W. Walker was called to the Chtir, and K. W. Beck requested to act as Secretary. On motion of Allen W. Turner, Esq., a com mittee of three, consisting of Messrs. William C. Leu, Elijah B. Arnold, and Andrew J. Clond were appointed to draft a preamble and resolu tions for the action of the meeting. The Committee, after having retired for a few momenta, returned and reported the following preamble and resolutions, to wit: B'Weoa, at a meeting reoently held in the city f Commons, the people of the several counties in h's state, without distinction of party, were re qnested to meet and ae ect delegates to represent V,em in e Convention to be held at Mdledgevilie, on the fourth day of July next, for the purpose of nominating a candidate tor Governor, and fCAcran we understand it to be the objeot of his meeting to organise a great national anion arty, npon the bsais of the Georgia plattorm, in opposition to Northern fanaticism, therefore, X’ssv.’red, That we approve of said Convention and rrqaeet each diatriot in thte coantv, irrespec tive of party affiliations, to send op to McDonough three delegates on the first Tueanay in July next, t r the purpose of selecting delegates to said Convention. A'asaned. That the proceedings of this meeting he published in the dironicU snd £#• twtei, end ail other papers friendly to said Convention. Dr. Lewis M. Tye offered the following amend ment, which after considerable discussion, in which Dr. Tye, Dr. Pettit, E. W. Beck, A. J. Cloud, E-q., and others participated, waa rejected, only five voting for it. Suolttd, That in the opinion of this meeting the organixation cymmonly known as the “ Know Nothings” is unnecessary and uncalled for, dan erons in ita policy, the tendency end objects of its tenets being subversive of the fnndamental principles, and violative of the spirit of the con stitution. After the rejection of the foregoing amendment* the original preamble and resolutions were unani mously adopted, except one vote. J A. W. Walxkb, Chairman. E. W. Bicx, Secretary. I Judge McLsan, of the United States Supreme Court, has over-ruled the motion for an injunction to prevent the Bock Island Baiiroad Company from building a bridge across the Miasiasippi at Book Used. This decision probably settles that ques tion in this country for ail time to oome, and in a manner, too, that justice and the interests of the majority concerned demand.

Wilson is a Delegate, but he will have to go tbs third degree—which would ’ make him forswear bis late abolition speeches— i or he “ can’t como in ” A c ever fellow bvsre says, tho party most have a new fourth degree to m*k it perfect, under which members shhli pledge them elves not to seek office. There are no fourth degree patriots. The convention will issue an open plat‘cnr, and throw off the mask ot sicresy and mystery. This wifi give the party thousands of votes. Tho Constitution wi.l bo the watchword, and with this, the boat hern, Middle, and SiuthWcS.ern ©tales, can eiftct a President—let New England do as she may. On Thursday evening, the “Council. ! o? this city are to give a grand banquet to the rati it “strangers within their gab 8.” The four toasts to be spoken to, wii be Be«i } gioas Liberty,” “Tbe Union,” “Nationalism, and “Tbe Press.” ProbrUy Albert Pike will speak to “Nationalism,” ana Kenneth Kayner, to “Tbe Union.” A great time is expected.

Be on your guard, and a’low mo some latitude in what 1 have said about tbe K. N.’s, for I am an outsider—and not en rappert with the elect. There will be stirring doing* to morrow, and very possi bly, after organization, the Convention wii be thrown open to third degree members, whether delegate- or not. A parly battling for Araoiicsn ism an afford to throw its Convention doors wide open. The Convention may la*t tbe whole week. “The boys” mean to do their work, this time, carefully and stioDgly. The result ot the Wash ington election is a matter of gratification to all Americana here. The Aaminiatratiou cannot cut off tbe head of the new party with any “official” hatchet. Mr. Pierce hud better give up with grace. I cannot write you more to night. Binge the foregoing was in type, we have receiv ed the New York Herald of the 7th inet., from which we copy the following; Philadelphia, June 5, 1855. The proceedings of the Council oi Know Noth irgs will, it is expected, result in definitely i-hop iDg the programme of the American party for 1856. 1 have no doubt of a split upon tho slavery qui s tion, aud there n.ay also be a rupture upoo the liquor question. The delegates from the Southern and Middle State" are prepared to unite upon a national platform of constitutional principles, leav the slavery question as tho con dilution leaves it, and turning out Wilson, the seditious abolition disorganizor, and his set from Massachusetts, Peek, ot the samo kidney aud his associates from Maine, sud, in short all tne fishilie-1 abolition coalitionists of tho New England States, They are all to be cut adrift. On thsir constitutional Union platform, tho now great national American organization will go into the summer and fall Stats elections, with a tair chance oi carrying New Y'ork, New Jersey, Penn sylvania, Kentucky, North Oaioiina and Tennes see, and with some prospect of making a good im pressiou even among the hotbeds ot the abolition ists. The rejected members of th.. East wii doubt less fall back upon Seward’s anti Biavery league, and go to work for a general sectional anti-slavery ticket. We may thus expect in ’66 to have three broadly defined parties in the field, to wit: 1. Tho new National American party. S. Tho Democratic party. 8. Tho general Northern Anti-slavery Coalition. To come to particulars: Among the New York men, Barker and Uliman arc rivals tor the office of Grand President of this projected national or ganization. Barker will probably ba re elected, and Uilntan wiii huvo to wait the chance of another nomination lor governor, or something else. Among tho delegates in favor of expelling Wil son aud all that set, 'hero are a number, particu larly from tbe South, in favor ot Fillmore for their Presidential candidate ; but 1 think that there is a larger number in favor of George Law. This Council, however, will not decide upon the Presidential candidate, but upon tho platform for '66. Tbore will be time enough for the candidate a year hence. Kenneth Kaynor, of North Carolina, is very busy and very ambitious. Ho a-pires to tho White House nomination ; but ho will be doing exceed ingly well if he eau get tho nomination for Vice President. Tne delegates from the Northwestern States— Indiana, Illinois, lowa, and Wisconsin, especially —say that as one half the voters there are natura lixsd oitizies, there mu-it bo some Droning ot our existing Know Nothing impediments iguiust that class, in order to make any headway in that qnar tor. They say, too, that the vote ot tho great West ia too important to be neglected. So it is. Judi cious men, therefore, think that there is a chance that the national Know Nothing platform may be liberalized to something like tb principles laid down in L ; ve Oak George’s celebrated ai d raga ci us letter to the Pennsylvania Logislat are.

At all events, the business before this Conven tion, and tbe issues and organizition depending before it, are of tho highest moment, end out ot it you may look for the classification aud arrange ment of this and all other parties for the grand campaign for the next Presidency. First day—Proceedings and opinions. Philadelphia, J an- 5, 1855. Tho Graud National Council of tho Americans oonvoned at 10 o’otook this morning, at tho Assem bly Hoc me, corner of Tenth and Chesuut streets. Now York, Massachusetts, Mail o. New Uamp shire, Khode Island, New Jersey, Maryland, Vir ginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Ala ama, Missis sippi, Tennessee, Louisiana, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, lowa, Wisconsin, California, Kentucky, Distriot, of Columbia, Missouri, aud Michigan, have sent their fall quota. On the question of the Presi iency of the Con vention, great nninimity pervades the members. No resonable doubt exists, whatever, of the rc eleotion of James W. Barker. The entire South and West, as well as tho Middle States, are fully satisfied of hiß nationality, and wiii give him a hearty and geuorons support. New England alone seems disposed to head the opposition to him at least a portion of it—and on the ground of his op position to their peculiar sociionslisms, asserting their preference for a Southern man with Sontborn sentiments to a Northern mac with southern sen timouts. Their opposition, however, will avail but little. But one sentiment seems to provr.de tho minds of the members generally, and that is, that the gr at American party oannot be otherwise than a national party, and that tho period has ar rived for the lull, open and expliet declaration of tho prinoiples by which it is guided and governed This declaration, rely upon it, will assuredly be make during the session. The Convention has some exciting questions to adjudicate—not tho least of which wi l bo the eo tio'n necessary to he taken with the ‘‘higher law” and other extremists who may present themselves for membership j but as to the issue, no reasonable doubt can exist. From the general tone and temper exhibited to-day, factionists and disnnion ists of all grades will be made to walk tba plank in short order, and the assemblage made wholly and entirely national ami conservative. Tno attendance, ns I said before, was fall and imposing, presenting ihe general tout ei.tembU of a most respeotuble, dignified and intellectual body, i As its proceedings are etriotly secret, it is quite a difficult, matter to get access to sucb details as will . interest the public mind, or give a cine to the pro- j posed action of the body in reference to tho vexed ; aaotional issues of the day. It seems to be conceded, however, that the salva- . tion of tho cause depends wholly upon tho body • taking the most decided uational ground, and in i Bnchashape as to preclnde the possibility, even, of any miaundor3tanding. This appears to be the j fixed purpose of the large majority; and I appre hend no special pleadings— no matter fcu» plau- S'hlo soever —will divert it from this paramount j object and duty. The decree has gone forth, and ! the work is already more than half accomplished \ It will, doubtless, give rise to the most aL-imstcd ; discussions, and will elicit much of the heated j party strife incident to tho overthrow of a faction and its cherished fanatical purposes. Wilson, of Massachusetts, and his trained co horts, sre hero, ready, ‘tis to bo presumed, to bat tle to the death for "uegrodom,” ar.d all its con comitant monstrosities; hut the “sober sense” of the nationals is wide awake to the interests of the cause, and will doubtless administer such a do served rebnke as will consign the “arch a-iitator - ’ and the “pseudo negro philanthropist” to the ten der mercies ot his morbid instincts, and to some more congenial assemblage, where all distinctions of “colors race and caste” merge into the more desirable one of a black skin ana a wooily head, and where bo may serve as head “Cuffee” to the whole genus of thick lips, Ist nose? and curly heads, the residue of his briof po itical existence. In reference to the action of the council this motning, the whole session, it is understood, was occupied in the discussion of the mode proper to be pursued in the permanent organization of the House—in other words, whether the House or the Chair should appoint the com mittee on credentials, the Chair having referred the question directly to the body for adjudication. By a vtry decisive vote, after a 1 ngthened debate, the appointment was given to the Chair, and it is suted that the committee appointed by him is em inently fcationai and conservative.

I B’nee writing the above 1 have nut one of the attache# to the Herald, whose mission, I opiue, is f randed under the missaprehensioc that the Coun cil, »-lier its organization, is to sit with open doore. Such an idea. I venture the opinion, has not a sin g e apologist in the body. The veil of secrecy, in so la r at ieiast as Its iegi'lation is concerned, has not and will not be r moved. Why, ’t’s rumored, and upon good aa' bority, too, at that, that a reso lotion was passed to day interdicting even the communication of its acts and doings with the * embers outside of the general assemblage. If this he the fact, and cf it there seems to be no question, more reporters, as such, of course, could not have admis-ioc. It was never the design, nor bus suci; a proposition ever had a supporter in the order that I ever heard of, to throw open the door of its modus operandi to the public. The purpose ‘imply it to make known the political princ pies of tfce party, and nothing mere. I wiii remark, invariant, that the Americans of this e y, beaded by Mayor Conrad, propose to give, on Thursday evening, a grai_d banquet to the Grand Council. In addition to the many good things which a most boar tifal market supplies, the programme proposes to have additionally any qa&ntity of good speaking, xour general topics to be elaborated by the prominent orator selected ior the occasion have been designated, and are ariargtd, it is said, a* follows 1. The Union.—On this theme the Hon. Ken neth Baynor, of North Carolina, a man of very decided •* ilitiea and a fine orator, is to harangue. 2. Nationality.—Albert Pike, of Arkanaa-, a mighty man in the South—a poet, a scholar, a philosopher, a leader of Southern commercial con van lion-—is to figure on thiß theme, and he will do it well. 8. The Pbkss.—Morton McMichael, of this city, is the chosen advocate. Os him I caDnot speak of any personal knowledge, but he is said to be a man of mark an well as of ink. 4. Religious Liberty.—This pro’ific theme is to bo bandied by Andrews, of New York, a ohaste, logical and beautiful speaker. Besides these leaders, a sentiment in honor of each Btate will bo proposed and responded to ap propriateiy by the prominent members of the Council, each speaker to hail from the State pro posed. ftE-ND DAY, Philadelphia, June 6,1855. The Convention assembled at ten this morning. The credential committee mado a p .rtiai report, wh ; ch, being received, the case of Ohio, which had not ncogirzed or acted upon tho “Union/’ or “third degree,” came up for adjudication. Upon the de ! ezntion proffering to take tl e dogrre, (which was administered,) and giviDg satisfactory pledges to tho Convention, they were admitted and qnali- . fiod. The State of Mississippi was next considered.— It appears that the regular Order had no legal existence in that State; but that, under th s name oi “l'ha Stars and Snipes,” some thirty thousand natives had enrolled themselves and appointed a delegation to this body. Being discovered to be of the rithtstripe, the whole Order wasrocogmzrd and the delega’ion admitted, but not, however, without a severe contest—tho anti slavery inter ests opposing, and the nationals advocating their admission. The vote was a decisive one, more than throe to one voting in the ailirmativo. Stick a pin there. Among the nationals, I learn that Lyon of your State, a man of fine promise, and one destined to dl a higher position in public life, distinguished himself by his able advocacy of national senti raents and opinions. The debate generally, it is stated, was charaoterizid by' much mind and ear nestness. * The State of Louisiana was then brought before tho Council. It is affirmed that two sets of dele pates ate in attendance, ore representing a mixed constituency of Catholics and Protestants, the de egatiou being compo ed in psrt of Catholics; Ihe other, a‘simon pure’ Protestant constitnency, represented by enti-Catholics. The disposition of tuis Stale will probably occupy the remainder of tho day’s session. It is thought that a day or tv/o will necessarily elapse before „he proper organization of tho body is completed, as California is also bene with a bonble set of delegates. One or two other States are probably in the Bame predicament. Mr. Barker's health is entirely resiored. The sentiment of nationality is the prevailing sentiment, and notwithstanding the intricacies of tho slave question, tho Union sentiment will be nobly vindicated, PHILADELPHIA, JIIDO «, 1855. Tho Know Nothing Convention had not orga nized up to the adjournment this afternoon. The sessions thus fir have beon merely preliminary. Tile report that Barker was to be slaughtered of Govornor Gardner has no foundation. The substitution of the latter for the former has not beeu thought of. The Convention will probably organize to-mor row, if it does not succeed in doing so at the session this ovouing. From the If. Y. Herald. Know Nothing National Couneil. By telegraph I advised you of the action of the Council, as tar as it had transpired, or boon made decisive lea 1 ingthe admission of Louisiana Catho lics Btillhinder discussion. It I am correoily ad yortised in the matter, two Orders, claiming tho National Council for their paternity, exist in that State, the one admitting American Catholics who abjiro the confessional, und the other repudiating all connection with tho devotees of that religion. Tho first is the more numerous body, with a Cath olic for its Slate President, and one or two Catho lics in the list of its national delegates; the latter, will none but Protestants in its membership and nation delegation. The settlement of this question, although atten ded w th some difficulties—the Cincinnati session having recognized for the time being only—it is understood the eligibility ot American Catholics, by perhaps simply their admission, will eventuate in the more correct understanding by tho public at large ot the views and opinions entertained by the Order. When settieri, as it must b,=> in a day or two, it will be discovered that the American war fare has been against the polities of that clmrcb, rutfer than its religious dogmas; and that tho cunning craftiness of tho priesihoo 1, rather than tlio religious faith of the membership, has erected the principal barrier to a recognili n of them es integral parts in this great Amerioun movement. “Ys cannot, ssrvo God and mammon" has beeu written ; and the popular impression now is that allegiance to a foreign potentate who olaitno secu lar ae wall as spiritual powor, is utterly incompati ble with ropublioßnitm ns taught by the sires of ’76, aud practised sinoe those days. atOOMU DAY —JLItTKKNOON SESSION. Oa the re assembling of the Grand Council, Col. Bolling, of Va., said in eubstanoe that ho did not want members to n!ay the hide and seek gxmeany longer He wanted to know whore mou stood. He had in Virginia stood up for the credit of the Northern member:, of the American party, and had said that they would be true to the con stitution ; and then tho iie had boon given to him and his a-Hortions by thn elqatioa of Seward, and ihe 1 by the election of Henry Wilson and hissnb s-.-quout conduct. The Colonel wanted Northern moil to face the musio, and let the Southern men understand matters. The Colonel said if tho North should follow the leadership of Wilson, that the S- uih would go in for sepsmtion. The Colonel made some very interesting statements to the Conn oil, to show that there was no danger to the coun try from negroes or lr, m slavery. Ho said that seventy-eight years ago there were three millions of whites nod two millions of blaoks. Where will the negroes be seventy e’ght years henoe, if the increase is in proportion! He said that tbs strong est pro slaverv man mu-i do satistfed that the ne groes would be lost. There would be none loft. Henry Wilson, of Mass., defined his position.— Ho loved tho whole human raco. He believfd, in the sight ot God, that nigger* and wmio people v.-ero on the same flat tooting, and he wanted it to be so on earth. He bad no wish to abolish slavery in the States, but he was quite anxious to do it in the District ot Columbia, aud to keep Slav- ry out of Kansas >nd all the Territories. He spoke for an hour on tho Massachusetts anti slavery plat form, and your reporter was unable to write out ; his no'es to send by this mail; but the tissue is ; made, and it has to "be met. 1 There i» no shirking out while IheSouth is rep ! resented by such men as Col. Bo'ling, of Virginia, I and Mr. White, of Miss uri, Bayner sepros tP ! have lost caste with the Southern delegates. They ou that in ins anxiety to make capital, (with the j orioru hepe that ha will be the candidate ot the | Jounciltor the Presidency,) with Northern mem | 10-s, he will jeopardise tho interests of the Sooth. '.’he consummate vanity of Bayner, in supposing ! uat no nas tue remotest chauoo of being the | iominee for the Presidency, is ridiculed by all his 1 outhern colleagues. No whig will get the nomi •ation for the Presidency, and m man, of any arty, who has ever held office, This is a solemn I ud settled conviction in tho mind of every sound ud Sem member of the present National Council.

Per .aps the test of me.ubor*hip iu the national or will be applied in the pUtform. Nice qaestion. Tnere will be the dev.i to pay before tbe Council gets through. The loss of Virginia suggests the necessity of holding on to the North, and as the downright rejection of Wilson & Co., may lose the North in a diversion to the Seward coalition, you will see that tne case requires deli c&ta steering to avoid the breakers. I mink Wil son deeir» a split. He seemed to be dragging his coat through the Convention, this afternoon, and asking Southern members to tread on the tail of it. Look out. The Louisiana Catholic delegates, though “na tives and to the manor born,” and disclaiming anything like civil aiiegianco to the Pope, will, of course, Lave to bo ejected. Some of the Sou:hemors say that a batch of Northern men have a platform cat and dried, in volving the restoration cf the Missouri compro mise, and that Kenueth Kajner is ready to go it in behalf ot the booth. Kenneth is very accommo dating. The name of George Law here is a tower cf etrengt h. The fact that he was ones an ostler, and fond of crstker& and cfceese, takes wel ; the fact that he has been a stone mason proves that he is as sound as a brick. Tnese tbe things, they say, for the people—a sell made man, working his way up Irom a stable to a palaoe in the Fifth avJnue, and more money than ho knows what to do with, and a generous, whole sonied, practical man at that. Perhaps before the adjournment of tc:s body anv ba something doi.e indicating it' preferences. If so, lam very much mistaken if George Law does not tarn up the first choice ol the Council. There are men here who think that ! oven if they fail in any compromise, a j arc I tion of ail sections may be made npon Live Oak !

A I liuls n ore rope ol this sort would heve carried Virginia, pernaps. The great difficulty is, that this Council ia the strangest admixture of inoon gruities you ever *-aw, lacking the essential ele ments of tsc: and experience to a remarkable degree. All want to be leader?, and very few appear to be qualified for the t sk. They are all aware of the dargers which surround them, yet few have the courage to strike out boldly for the land. We have had an exciting afternoon, iuaide and out, to day, anJ to-morrow we ah all perhaps have it still holier and heavier. I think it is cot unlike ly that the convention wi 1 hold on more than two or t ree weeks longer, on account ol the high prices of breadstuff* and provisions. Philadelphia, Jane 7,1555. The American Catholic question, introduced by Louisiana, elicited a debate of great power and eloquence. W ilson, of Bolling, of Virginia, Pike of Arkansas, and other master spirits, were the prominent ac ? ors, and ’ua believ ed, for strength and potency of argument, graceful di tien, biting sarcasm and genuine wit and hu rco-, lias been seldom surpassed, if ever equalled, in the deliberations of the Order.

But as I have . neither tba space nor toe pisare to specify to any farther extent, I dismiss the theme with the gen • era! remark, that every State and Territory, in the , person of some one or more delegates, has just Suae to be proud of its representation. The pressure from outside is hourly becoming more dense, and as every train arrives new and prominent faces are recognized. Taken altogether, this American convocation 1 ha. been an exceedingly pleasing one, and the entire absencs of all cliquism and the free inter change of sentiment and opinion marked by the pervading unanimity to nationally and fraternize the whole American paoplo upon the basis of tee Constitn.ion and the Union—must constitute a new era in the development, strength and frater nity of the organi*“tioD. third day. The Convention met at 11 o’clock A. M. to-day. After a moet auimated debLto cf several hour* duration, eliciting the finest forensic display that ever graced or distinguished the de l iterations of the national Americans in grand council assem bled, it was decided by an overwhelming mej.»rry, to exc'ude, cr rather not to introduce, the Ameri can Cathoiio delegation into the national asaem falThc case of the “Simon Pores” from Louisiana, is thus freed from si! einbanasamenta; and al though not eo ordered, being laid on the table for future aotion, that representation will unquoe tionably be admitted. Tno California disputants and contestants have made a graud entree, and the race promises to be an exciting one. There exists what are termed in that State the regulars and the wigwam both contending for authority, both having sent the e-.me set of delegates, a portion belonging to each order. Tha Grand Council have aamiued the del egates, but reoognisad only the regulars. At 2 P.

The Knew frothing Banquet. Philaoilpbia, June 1, 1855. The grand banquet of the Know Nothings came off at five o’clock this afternoon. Four hundred and fifty persons were present. Mayor Conrad presided. The room and tables were most beau tifully decorated. The first toast was “ she Union.” It was re sponded to by Kenae-hßayner, of North Carolina, iu an old time patriotic glorification star spangled banner speech. The second toast, “America ruled by Amen cm-,” was responded to by J. B. Bicaud of Mary land. The third toast, “Religions liberty,” wte respon ded to by C. A drewa, ol New York. To the fourth toast, Mr. Kidgwsy, of the Kieh mond Whig, responded bri* fiy, and, apologising, called on Mr. Prentice, of the Louisville Journald, but ho was not present. His namo was reoeived with loud cheers. JunaoH Chau, of Virginia, then spoke at length chiefly cc the Virginia election. After he had oonoluded, the President called on the States, alphabetical y, for speeches. Albert Pike spoke for Akansas; Mr. Stewart for Alabama; Connecticut waa called upon, but no response re turned. Caliiornia came next, and her delegate, Mr. Mathews commenced by saying that he de sired to hear from Massachusetts first. Delaware was answered by Mr, Smithers, who also desired to hear from Massachusetts, Florida, Georgia aud othsr States were called upon, and speeches were made by the delegates represen ing them. Philadelphia, June 8,1855. The Know Nothing Council and the outsiders, as woli those belonging to the organization as those unconnected with but ready to join it the moment they see anything to he gained .hereby, are all in ooufusion and disorder. Many of those latter are old broken down politician* of the two old parties, who are puzx'ed by this new move ment, and cannot divest thouiselves of their old par ty traditions. Others, again, are new men, very good for most purposes, but who are wholly igno rant of the practical working of political organize tions on a great soale, and who are bewildered by machinery to which they are strangers. One thing ib clear already. There are no leading spirits or master minds in tho Convention ai Philadelphia. There ie no individual there who ia gifted with the commanding power or overwhelming intellect which John C. Calhoun, Andrew Jackson, Daniel Webster and Henry Clay haveeach ovino din their several spheres in former times. The Bouthorn men of the Grand Council, with some individual exceptions, aie generally moro intelligent in mat ters of political business than the Northerners.— This arises from the peculiar social condition of Northern and Southern men. In tho North, of late years, politios havo become disreputable. Men of talent have avoided the political arena, and ta keu refuge elsewhere—iu trade, the professions or literature. For some time past, none but the un principled, and men who have proved tneir tna bility to earn a living otherwise, have become poli ticians in the North, or sought political notoriety. Heuco an obvious deoline in tho character of the ciasa in your section of the country. Men in the South receive a bettor education, and one moro soiled to enable them to engago in political life. They study the science of politics with more care, and hence beooaie tar superior to the Northerners in practical knowledge as legislators or executive men. Those distinguishing traits cf character are quite as discernible among the Know Nothings ol Philadelphia as they have been of late amoDg the old parties. But great difficulties surround the Counoil. and seem only to increase as they are probod and discussed. On tne general question of the natu i aiization laws ihere is not rnuoh diversity of opin ion. It is generally conceded by all parties tha. they Bhould either be gradually ebangtdor grad ually abolished altogether. But between those who advocate either ex rema it may yet prove difficult to frame a compromise. The same difficulty presents i'Belf on the re ligious question. It has been settled in f prelim inary way by tha exclusion oft.ie Roman Catholic members from Louisiana. Yet there ia a strong tooting here in lavor of religious toleration per ee, and tor confining the hostility ot the Oder to political Catholicity; or that kind ot interfering with the pohtioal oondition of tho various e asses of society of wh oh the oonduct ot A-cubis'-op Huvhes and the I’rot -tanl clergy of Now England has occasionally fnmiahed examples. But the great difficulty for the Counoil is the slavery quest on. There seems to lie but one pos s bis mode ol so ving ibis difficulty, and that is to allow slavery, like religion, to be an open ques tion to all parties in all sections; to form a great national Knew Nothing party on the basis of oppo sition to the indiscreet and corrupt policy ot the present a im.nistration, and to allow each section to entertain, unmolested, its local opinions in re f ronco to slavery, ju t as its entertains its private views on religion. Even this view, it must be admitted, would only be temporary ; the question must be met ultimately in hongress, aud an un derstanding had on tho terms on which Dow States are to be admitted, who'her Iree or slave, whether according tho constitution and the prac tiee of former Congresses or not. Several members of the convention, and others with whom I have uoui orsed, consider this the only way ot preserv ing in its integrity oar national organization. They sav, let tho slavery question be settled by Con gross. If Congress, at a future session, oannot agree in a practical' compromise let it dissolve, adjourn; let the question bo roferrod to the peo pie, and a convention called to revise the consti tution and provide a new one, if the old one will not answer the purpose. It is very true that the present constitution was framed bv wise and P r *>> tical men. at the close of the Retfolationaiy war, wflan ev.ry facially of theirs was in full p ay, ana tneir wits roused to tho utmost degrei. Bulat the same time, the country tnon contained but three millions of people. Their interests were of far Jess magnitude and less exciting thqn ours.— We now count over twenty five millions of people and th;rty-cno fetates.' Hence onr circnnistances are very different from what they were at the time the present constitution was adopted, Uuless the slavery qr.esUcu ia disposed of in scire practiced friendly way, by s revision of the constitution, and adapted to the growth and in crease ot the country, angry feelings are aure to arise, alienation will take place between the North and the South, and the ultimato result will be insurrection and civil war. Hence the proposal we have heard, if the difficulty cannot be Battled in any other way, to qqll a now convention ol the States and form a new constitution. If the repre sentatives ot the various States cannot agree upon a compromise that wiil suit the present time and give a promise of durability, then the North and the South had far better separate amicaniy, aid organize separate typubiioa with separate govern ments. One thing is certain—the adoption of this line of policy wou’d compel real patriots and business men to reflect on the approaching crisis. The mere ephemera 1 , politicians who have used this slavery question for their private corrupt purposes would befl jored and thrown overboard. It is absurd to expect that the free States can ever be pro-slavery, or the slave Stftieuanii slavery. Such a thing is *s utterly impossible as that a Catholic will undertake a defence of Protestantism or a Presbyterian of Episcopacy. The two old parties long ac’od ou the principle of d agooning tbe North and the South into 'an apparent uni formity Os satnimeut on the subject, ar.d the con sec;nonce has been that they are now both disor ganized and ruined. If any such plan as this could be adopted, the par ay might be completely organised, and with pro-slavery principles in tne South and anti-sla ve»y principles in the North, might go into the next State aud Preeid ntial elections—leaving it to the meeting of Congress or to the national con vention to be called for the purpose, to settle the qne.«-tion of slavery forever. I will make further inquiries on these interesting and important points an<3l ideas, and will give you the result of my re searches. Among ether carious phenomena attending the meeting of the pending convention, the great number of persons belonging to old political par ties who havo crowded here with various view* and designs is perhaps tho moat noteworthy. Sev eral of the leading Seward men from your Btate, and several politicians from New England who are affiliated with them, are very busy, of course, with the object of breaking up the convention. There io here a member from a Western State, name I do not now remember, who parses for a Know Nothing, and high in the thi r d de gree and yet is known as a Beward m&D, and re porta the proceedings daily for the Sew York T i trune.
