Platform of the Constitutional IVilon
Party,
The following is the Platform adopted by the
Constitutional Union Party, in National Conven
tion at Baltimore :
Whereas, Experience has demonstrated that
Platforms adopted by the partisan Conventions of
the country have had the effect to mislead and
deceive the people, and, at the same time, to widen
the political divisions of the country, by the crea
tion and encouragement of geographical and sec
tional parties ; therefore—
Resolved, That it is both the part of patriotism
and of duty to recognise no political principles
other than
The Constitution of the Country ;
The Union of the States ; and
Thf. Enforcement of the Laws;
and that, as representatives of the Constitutional
Union men of the country, the National Conven
tion assembled, we here pledge ourselves to main
tain, protect and defend, separately and unitedly,
those great principles of public liberty and nation
al safety, against all enemies, at home and abroad,
believing that thereby peace may once more De
restored to the country, the just rights o\ the
people, and of the States re-established, and the
Government again placed Ln that condition of jus
tice, fraternity and equality, which, under the
example and constitution of our fathers, has
solemnly bound every citizen of the United States
to maintain “ a more perfect union, establish
justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for
the common defence, promote the ger tral welfare,
and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves
and our posterity.”
A Trick.
Some of the Breckinridge leaders, in their ex
ceeding great fear that the people may rise
against them, and take party power out of their
hands in Georgia, are already raising a hue and
cry against the National men of the State, who
propose in good faith a general fusion of all the
parties, with a view to unity of action, not only
prior to the election, but afterwards, should it be
thought advisable. They choose to say that this
is only a trick of the Bell and Douglas men to
defeat Bbeckinringe in this State. They have
been so long strangers to truth and honesty and
fair dealing, that they seem incapable of under
standing a fair and patriotic proposition when
offered them.
And what is the proposition ? Simply, as we
understand it, a proposal for united action on the
part of the whole people of the State, in view of
the difficulties which now surround us, and the
dangers which threaten us in the near future. Is
it not desirable that we should be united ? Every
one says so. But the Breckinridge leaders say
unite on Mr. Breckinridge, not to help him at all,
but solely to benefit themselves, for nearly every
man of them openly admits that Mr. Breckin
ridge is already beaten, that he cannot be elected,
and that the battle is decided, so far as he is con
cerned. If Lincoln be elected these men must
certainly know that there is to be anew order of
things entirely—a new organization of parties—
and therefore a temporaay State success can sure
ly be of no practical advantage even to the Breck
inridge leadeas, still less to the rank and file of
Breckinridge voters. On the other hand what
do the Bell and Douglas men offer? They ask
lor unity, and while the Bell men prefer their
candidate and the Douglas men prefer theirs, yet
they are willing to waive the claims of their men,
and to have only one ticket in the State —not for
Bell, nor Brccktnridge nor Douglas, but for
either of these rathan than Lincoln.
“Was ever a fairer proposition for uniting the
whole people offered ? We can see no injustice in it,
and no trick either; and if there be any trick design
ed we are not in the secret. It seems to us to be
a proposition, born of the necessities and troubles
of the hour, and not a piece of party machinery
at all. It is asked that the Breckinridge, Bell
and Douglas Committees, Electors and Alternates
meet together in Atlanta next Monday, the 29th
meet as brethern to consult together for the com
mon good, present and future, and if possible to
harmonize us all on one Electoral ticket. So far
as we are concerned we are willing that the
Breckinridge men shall have a majority of the
ticket, or even, allii they desire it, with instruc
tions to cast the vote in such manner as will best
defeat Lincoln, What possible objection can any
patriot have, who desires to see us all united, to
meet and consult with his brethern ?
The people are ripe for this movement, and
upon those who refuse to join in this consultation
about our common interests, let the popular curse
fall. Upon those who reject this plea for union,
let the indignation of the people who cannot be
led hither and thither by designing leaders, fall.
Upon them be the responsibility of continual di
vision and distraction, at a time when all the wis
dom and all the patriotism of the State are neces
sary to guide us aright. Let the people go on
with this movement, regardless of their leaders
who have got them into the trouble. Oh, for he
roic and eloquent tribunes of the people now to
speak to them. Cannot Ben Hill go into every
Congressional District to warn the people and to
hie theii hearts ! Can we not have Alexander
H. Stephens, whose voice has so often electrified
thousands, to plead yet again sos the country he
has loved so well and served so long and so faith
ftflly ? This is the hour for patriotism—for our
country, our whole country, and nothing but our
country.
You cannot imagine the intense interest of our
people in the result of the New York election.
We hope for the best, but we hope with fear and
trembling. May that God that has watched over
us as a nation thus far, preserve us from the hor
rors of a sectional civil war. North Carolina is
right, but then, as you have often said, let even
one of the States secede, and the Government un
dertake to bring it to submission, the result will
be the whole South will stand by that State • it
cannot be otherwise.
North Carolina is sure for Bell and Everett.
Some of the Democratic speakers of our State
concede this publicly. From the sea shore to the
mountains, the people are aroused. May New
York stund firm and drive back the spirit of fa
naticism, and preserve our country from the curse
of sectional misrule.— Cor. N. Y.Exprm.
Union.
Yes, Union is now the watchword of every
National man from the Aroostook to the Rio
Grande—it is the rallying cry of millions of men.
Union for what? Not a Union to perpetuate
power in a certain party, not a Union to secure
success to any particular organization, but a
Union of patriots everywhere to defeat sectional
ism, to put down fanaticism, to preserve the integ
rity of the Republic, to maintain the spirit of the
Constitution, to restore tranquility, to rekindle
the flame of brotherly feeling, and to secure the
liberties of ourselves and our children. Could a
nobler sentiment, a more commendable desire
aninmte the hearts of freemen ?
Do we not desire to preserve the Union, do we
not love the Union ? Then let us show the latter,
and work for the former. Unless we can defeat
sectionalism, unless we can allay this storm of
fierce fanaticism, the Union can not be preserved.
How shall we set about it—how shall we do what
is best under the circumstances? Leaders tell us
we can do nothing—that the North alone must
crush out this monster which threatens us. Very
well, but we must do our part. All our votes
will be anti-LiNCOLN, that is true, whether they
be given for Breckinridge, Douglas or Bell.
Let these votes then be simply anti-Lincoln, let
them be only National, let them be cast regard
less of men and of factions, and thus let us show
to the North an unbroken phalanx, an undivided
front. Let us teil the North that we are no longer
Bell men, Breckinridge men, or Douglas men,
but that we are only National men, desirous of
preserving our Constitution and our Union, and
call upon them to be National too, and to put
down that fell spirit in their midst which threatens
them equally with_'M, because it threatens to
blight our fraternal regard, to override the ‘com
promises of the compact of Union, and thus to de
stroy the Union itself.
Away with all unworthy bickerings among our
selves. Let us be brothers indeed, and let us
unitedly make a last appeal to those at the North,
who are not willing to let the Union slide, to come
up to the workbefore them, and to discharge that
full duty which they owe us and themselves, and
which they have so long criminally neglected to
perform. Georgia, our glorious Empire State
perhaps holds at this moment in her bauds the
destinies of the Republic, and the liberties of
thirty millions of people. She never yet has fal
tered—shall she fail now, when all may depend
on her prompt and proper action ? Let all the
people flee from the cruel tyranny of party, and
rally as one man, to maintain nationality if we
can, but honor and truth and justice at all
hazards.
Stand Aside.
Yerily the time is coming, yea it lias already
come, that the politicians, the miserable mounte
banks and jugglers should stand aside, out of the
way of the honest people, and so let them come to
gether to manage tlieir own affairs in their own
way, subject to no dictation, and no rule but what
they deem best for their own interests. The peo
ple have stayed at home, attending to their own
domestic and every-day matters, leaving the af
fairs of State in the hands of professional office
seekers, and they have betrayed the trust given
into their keeping. They have brought on all
the troubles which now beset us on every’ hand,
and thank God the people are awaking at last, and
seem determined to assert and maintain their own
supremacy in this their own government. Our
fathers suffered unfold ills—they not only suffer
ed, but they fought aud bled to give us this price
less legacy. And now shall we, their descendants,
suffer it to be snatched from us and destroyed, by
a horde of office-beggars?
This Union was formed that we—the people—
might have security and peace and protection, at
home and abroad. But a tribe of plunder-mongers,
of trained demagogues, have seized upon a sub
ject which, of all others, was most sensitive, and
have continually and persistently agitated it
throughout the country, appealing to the passions
and prejudices of the people, that they might
thus more easily govern the people ; and now at
last they have raised a storm that they are power
less to control —a storm which threatens to strike
down one section of the Confederacy, to destroy
the Republic, and perhaps to overthrow public
liberty. People of Georgia, people of the South,
people of the North, the politicians have deceived
and betrayed you. They have cunningly appealed
to your emotions, pandered to your quick pas
sions, and thus led you on, step by step, to that
poiut, from which they now tremblingly tell you,
that they and you cannot recede. They hove
stirred up strife and hatred between those who
should have been brethren, until now the wisest
and best of the land fear that there is no chance
to allay the fierce excitement, and to restore
those feelings, without which the Union cannot
be maintained.
The politicians have failed you, in the hour of
extremity, oh misguided citizens, and it now rests
with you alone to save yourselves from their fou*
machinations, if you can. Will you not be equal
to the emergency? Will you not bestir yourselves
from this time out to overthrow the rule of the
leaders, and to mauage your own affairs? Will
you not come out from this terrible bondage of
party, and be free indeed? If you be worthy des
cendants of patriot sires, you will set to work at
once.
Aiding Lincoln.— Surely Mr. Breckinridge
should withdraw. His running is the only ob
stacle iu the way of Lincoln’s defeat. His being
a candidate only aids Lincoln, injures Mr. Bell
and Douglas, and does himself and his party nc
good.
The position of Mr. Breckinridge is becoming
daily one of great responsibility to him. Four
years ago Conservatism carried Illinois and In
diana and Pennsylvania aud New Jersey. These
also, if possible, are tb be abolitionized. Every
one of them would be swept by Bell and Douglas
by immense majorities if the Administration and
its friends would leave the field. Every one of
them is to be given to Lincoln, if the Seceders
can carry but their plans. If Breckinridge polls
as many votes iu the North as his friends claim
for him, every Northern State will give its electo
ral vote to Abraham Lincoln. If he polls three
times as many as are claimed for him, he will not
carry for himself a single State North of Mason
and Dixion’s line. What, then, in the name o
common sense, is he in the field for, if it is not to
elect Abraham Lincoln, if it is not to abolitionize
the North ?
These questions should be sounded in the ears
of honest Breckinridge men at the South. Let
them tell us, if they can, what they can reasona
bly expect of Northern Conservatives while they
are aiding to elect a Northern fanatic to the Pre
sidency.
The Breckinridge party is every day growing
weaker, since its purpose is so well understood.
The day of reckening will come, and Northern
and Southern fanaticism will share a common
fate. — Richmond Whig.
Did it ever occur to the supporters of Breckin
ridge, that the chief strength of the Republican
party in the North consists in opposition to dem
ocracy? If the democratic party were swept out
of existence, the Republican party would follow
incontinently. In 1856, the leaders of both par
ties did the most effective work by convincing the
people of both sections that the race was alone
between them, and that Mr. Fillmore was out of
the question. It was this that swelled Mr. Fre
mont’s vote to upwards of a million and a quarter.
The same thing is attempted again. The Repub
licans well knowing this fact, are diligently labor
ing to spread the impression that neither Mr.
Bdl nor Mr. Douglas has any chance whatever,
and that the contest really lies between Breckin
ridge and Lincoln. The Breckinridge organs and
speakers are endeavoring to do the same thing.
It is even insisted that Mr. Bell and Mr. Douglas
should withdraw, so that the struggle should at
once assume a totally sectional aspect. So the
extremes meet in a common aim and to gain a
common end. It is perfectly clear that when all
nationality is extinguished and the two sections
are. brought to an issue simply for sectional su
premacy, that the result will be disastrous to the
South, and in all human probability to the Union.
What patriot is ready for this calamitous state of
things V Let all who value the Union and the
Constitution, rally under the standard of their
friends, against their antagonists on both sides.—
Nashville Patriot.
Ms. Everett. —The National Intelligencer says :
“It is known that a portion of the Democracy at
Charleston, yielding to the earnest representations
ot a portion of the Southern Opposition, was
anxious to secure the nomination of Mr. Everett
for Vice President of the United States, in con
junction with some Democrat as candidate for the
nrst office in the people’s gift, and thus, in the
idea ot Mr. Breckinridge, an ‘appeal’ might be
made to all who ‘rebelled’ against the ‘Republi
can alliance.’ The friends and admirers of Mr.
Everett will doubtless rejoice that his honored
name was not subjected to any such unnatural
association ; but if such a ‘coalition, had been
effected, and if Mr. Everett could have brought
himself to accept the position thus assigned to
him, who supposes for an instant that his ‘na
tionality’ ana ‘conservatism’ would have been
subjected to the slightest suspicion pr the least
question V As it is, however, the case is entirely
different, for the Democracy are great believers
in the adage that ‘circumstances alter cases.’’

What ought to be Done—-Whai can be
done to Save the Government of our
Fathers t
Mr. Editor : Never until now have I been at a
loss for words to express mv thoughts and feel
ings. The blackness of darkness that hangs over
our country at this moment stupefies the natriot’s
mind, and paralyses the patriot’s heart. The bur
den of deep solicitude is so weighty, that I con
fess 1 do not know what words to use best adapt
ed to give currency to the harrowing ideas that
constantly go and come. All the faculties of my
mind and soul are at this moment concentrated
upon one thought and object, and that is the pre
servation of our Government. What ought to be
done ? Let the people of Georgia unite upon one
electoral ticket. Let the people take this matter
in their hands. They ought to do it. They must
do it, if they wish to save their country from revo- j
lution and civil war.
It is no time to dally now. Every man’s home
and fireside are involved in the impending danger.
It is no time to look back. Where is the man
whose house if on fire, would stop to dispute or
quarrel about the mode of putting out the flame
to save his house ? None ; no ; not one could be
found so silly. This Government is about to be i
destroyed, aud will the men of Georgia stop and (
dispute and quarrel about how it shall be saved !
among themselves? Unite! unite! is the word, j
The Philistines are marching upon the Govern
ment. In unity there will be the strength of
Sampson. The. indifference and apathy of the
people astonish me beyond measurs. Reason reels
in wonder at their conduct, to see men whose all
is at stake so careless of consequences. Their
right to self-government is involved in the issue,
for their government once broken up and degra
ded all tlieir rights to think and act as freemen
are given over to the uncertainties of revolution,
anarchy aud confusion. Are the people prepared
to give up the good they have for the evils they
know not of? Are the people prepared, are they
willing to see these Slates rent asunder? Do they
value so little tlie services of our revolutionary
ancestors? Is the memory of Washington less
dear to them now than it was in years gone by ?
Men ©f Georgia! do you love your country?
Are you grateful for the lilessings, happiness and
prosperity it has conferred upon you ? It has
secured you in your person and protected you in
your property. It has opened up the wav alike
to the rich and poor. The humble and elevated
stand as equals on the road to fame, and the accu
mulation of wealth. Then to preserve and merit
a continuance of these rich and inestimable bles
siugs which God through our fathers has given
us, unite and save them to yourselves aud your
children. Is not this a Breckinridge, or Bell, or
Douglas man’s country? Has not each and all of
these the same rights and privileges at stake? Is
not. must not our destiny he the same? May the
God of Washington—the God of Patriotism,
breathe upon these dry bones, and may bone come
to hone, and muscle upon bone, that they may be
united, and a great army raised up to defeat Lin
coln and save the government. Some may sav
there is no use to unite here—listen not to the svren
song. It will give moral force and a power of
strength to our friends at the North we think not
of. No battle was ever won without moral force
and power. Nothing hut moral power made
Washington triumph.
Can we unite? We can ; as men, as fathers and
brothers, we ought to do it. Let us at least try it.
Let the people without distinction of party names,
or preferences, meet and instruct the Executive
Committees of the three parties in Georgia to
form one electoral ticket out of the three. If one
of the three refuse, then let the other two form a
ticket, and in the language of the patriotic Gas
kill, the other ought to be beaten, and I for one
will vote for it. There is one very striking and
singular fact in the history of our recent troubles.
It is this: no church, has to my knowledge, set
apart a day and made an appeal in behalf of our
distracted country. Why is this ? Where are the
Christian patriots of our land ? The good book
tells us if one be sick “let him call for the elders
of the church and let them pray over him, anoint
ing him with oil in the name of the Lord : Ami
the prayer of faith shall save the sick, aud the
Lord shall raise him up, and if he have committed
sins, they shall be forgiven him.”
Is not this Government sick nigh unto death
and destruction ? Washington prayed for hfs
country, and God was with him in the field of
battle to give him victory—and within the Cabi
net to guide and direct him on the new and un
tried experiment of administering the Govern
ment. liavc we not, as a people, grievously
sinned ? Take care the daughters of these United
States don’t weep over their country’s ruin, as
the daughters of Judea have over theirs, and like
them cannot be comforted. We have, and are
sinning by placing in jeopardy and hazarding our
civil and religious rights and privileges. May
the God of our Fathers stand by us, and save us
from the evils that threaten us. I am truly glad
to see the noble and patriotic Hill for his whole
country. He is equal to the trial, and like a Chris
tian patriot, he obeyed his country’s call. It was
an ottering fit to be made. It was an offering for
his country’s good. Therefore, it makes his pa
triotism all it should be; commanding and su
blime. Madison.
The Union-- What In It >.
The Republicans of the North have some queer
ideas of Union. Mr. Carl Schurz’s idea of uniting
the Yankee Abolitionists, the Germans and the
Scandinavians to fight the South,—to make sub
jects of citizens there,—a very European, and un-
American idoa, —we have already dwelt upon.
Dragooning the South, — licking the South, —
crushing the South, is very common Northern
Republicanism. The Carl Schurz orators have
drilled, even into many American minds, the idea
that this is a Government of subjects, not of cit
izens.
Henry Clay, in 1850, foresaw the rising Northern
Sectional Party, and in warning his countrymen
against it, said :
“ The Abolitionists, let me suppose, succeed in
their present aim of uniting the inhabitants of
the free States, as one man, against the inhabi
tants of the Slave States. And this process of
reciprocal consolidation will be attended with all
the violent prejudices, embittered passions, aud
implacable animosities, which ever degraded or
deformed banian nature. A%irtualdissolution of
the Union will have taken place, while the forms of
its existence remain. The most valuable element
of union, mutual kindness, the feelings of sympa
thy, the fraternal bonds, which now happily unite
us, will have been extinguished forever. One sec
tion will stand in menacing and hostile array
against the other.”
The virtual dissolution of the Union already ex
ists. Our Southern counfrymen are uneasy and
alarmed. They may, for self-defence, organize
and rush to arms. Mr. Clay predicted something
like it in adding on to what we have quoted
above:
“The collision of opinion will be quickly follow
ed by*the clash of arms. I will not attempt to des
cribe scenes which now happily lie concealed from
our view.”
The Lincoln and Seward idea, that we can have
“a conflict” with the South, and keep up a Union
with that South is necessarily followed by Carl
Shurz’s appeal to arms. Conflicts imply subjec
tion; arms are necessary to subjection,—and
hence, as Mr. Clay foresaw, —
“ The collision of opinion will be quickly follow
ed by the clash ‘of arms .”
The leading idea of the Republican Press and
Republican mind, is, that if a Southern State
appeals from this Lincoln and Seward “conflict”
to State Sovereignty,—we of the North must shoot
down the rebels ! Force, certainly, is the inevita
ble result of “the conflict” that is to go on, until
we subdue the South, or the South subdues us.
And yet, in Republican mind and judgment, all
this is Union ! all this is conservatism !
The Republican mind of the North must be re
educated before it can understand this Union.
7 heir idea of a Union of Force is not the free will,
voluntary Union, our Fathers created for us.
Their subject idea, to repeat ourselves, is not our
Fathers’ citizen idea. If this were to be a Gov- 1
ernment of Force, —large standing armies would
have been handed down to us. The Government
would have been created, a Consolidation, not a
Confederation. The Government of our Fathers
was a Government of Love, of common interest,
not of conflict, and of destruction of great inte
rests, such as Lincoln and Seward propose. Wo
were created into a Union to love one another,
not to hate one another.
Another wrong idea of the Republicans is, that
Government can compel; by force, individual
States to obey a Constitution and its Laws, while
they themselves set the example ot nullifying
them,—in short, that while nullification, North, is
all right,—South, it is treason. Mr. Webster,’in
a speech at Capon Springs, June, 1851, well said :
“I do not hesitate to say and repeat, that if the
Northern States refuse wilfully and deliberately
to carry into effect that jiart of the Constitution
which respects the restoration of fugitive slaves,
the South would no lo'nger be bound to observe
the compact. A bargain broken on one side, is a
bargain broken on all sides.’’
Scarcely one Republican State in the Union ex
ecutes this part of the Constitution. Massachu
setts is in open rebellion against it, in its personal
Liberty Bill. In Wisconsin, Booth, the convict
of the U. S. Court, defies the Law and the Consti
tution, under State protection. Brinckerhoff is
just elected Judge in Ohio, who, if we recollect
aright, holds the l ugitive Slave Law to be uncon
stitutional. The “John Brown is Right.’’ man,
Mr. Andrew, is the Republican candidate for Go
vernor of Massachusetts.
Thus the Republicans talk of enforcing Laws
by arms, before thev, themselves, obey them, or
set the example of obedience. Are they not pre
cipitating revolution ?— N. Y. Express.

Presentments.
EST’Of the Grand Jury of Oglethorpe County, Ga.—
We, the Grand Jurors chosen aud sworn for the October Term,
1860, of the Superior Court of Oglethorpe county, beg leave to
make the following Presentments :
The committee to whom was assigned the examination of
the Books of the Ordinary and Records of the Superior and
Inferior Courts of this county, have critically performed that
duty, and beg leave to report that they find the Books of the
above mentioned officers kept in a neat, correct, aud intelligi
ble business-like manner, creditable to the officers and beneficial
to the community at lar*:e. In parting with our present Clerk,
C. M. Hammock, Esq., who lias seen proper to resign the ofli
ces which he has held with so much credit to himself and honor
to the people of Oglethorpe county, we tender to him our kind
est regards.
We find the County Treasurer’s Books neatly aud correctly
kept, with propei vouchers, aud a balance on hand, in cash, of
: four dollars and eighty-eight cents.
j Roads generally are in good order. Great credit is due
I to the Commissioners and Overseers. We would recommend
i to the Inferior Court, that the Road leading from Sandy Cross
to Lexington Depot—between Wm. Colquitt’s and Mrs. Now
ell’s be widened ; and also call their attention to the condition
of the Bridges at the Railroad crossings—they are in bad order.
We would further recommend to the Inferior Court, the ne
cessity of some alteration in the J ury Boxes—either by cush
ioning the seats and their backs, or furnishing chairs, made fast
t o the floor: also, a large com fort able cuair for His Honor.
We find some repairs needed about the gable windows and
roof es the Court House, and suggest the whitewashing of all
the rooms.
The Jail is in as good condition as usual, and only needs
whitewashing.
We recommend to the Trustees of the Meson Academy Fund,
to make such petition to our next Legislature as will authorize

and recommend a re-organization of the present Military Sys.
tern of the State, and make such further appropriation tor the
purchase of arms and munitions of war as to them may seem
necessary aud proper.
