Platform of the Constitutional Union
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
The 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 ne
restored to the country, the just rights (A the
people, and of the States re-established, and the
Government again placed in 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 commca defence, promote the ger vral welfare,
and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves
and our posterity.”
Tills Battle is Decisive.
The anti-Slavery party has for a long time had
an existence in this country ; in fact, almost since
the existence of the Government. But, showing
itself boldly some forty years ago, it has grown
by slow degrees, till it has taken giant propor
tions at last. It was fanatic in its incipiency, it is
fanatic still. It has grown by opposition—grown
by unwise and unnecessary agitation, until it has
almost acquired dominion in the Government.
This election determines its fate, and the late of
the Union, too. In 1844, its first positive strength
was exhibited, and that not for advantage to it
self, but simply for harm to others. It defeated
Henry Clay for the Presidency, by giving the
State of New York to Mr. Polk. In 1848, under
the lead of a trusted Democrat —Martin Van Bu
reu—it was instrumental in defeating Gen. Cass,
and electing Taylor. Under the wise administra
tion of Mr. Fillmore it fell off nearly one-half in
its strength, in 1852, and was powerless for either
good or evil, directly or incidentally, lead by an
other trusted Democrat, John P. Hale.
Previous to 1856, the anti-slavery party had
never any power to be dreaded, as an active con
testant for supremacy in the government, being
only occasionally a balance of power, able to turn
the scale in favor of one or other of the two great
parties. The unfortunate legislation of 1854, the
Kansas bill, was the great cause which infused
new life into anti-slavery fanaticism, and which
bus finally made it a cruel, remorseless, almost
victorious, party organization, which must be
crushed, or else it will crush t\e Republic. How
sincerely every friend of the Union now in his
heart deplores the legislation of 1856—bow truly
has it come to pass that all now see and know that
it was indeed Btxndora's box. The Black Republi
can party owes its being to the Kansas bill. From
the date of its passage it has steadily increased in
relentless hostility to our section, and in the open,
shameless declaration of its aims and purposes.
There was truly no good reason why the Kan
sas bill should have excited the hostility of the
North, but demagogues —the bane of this country,
and destined to be the destruction of it—seized
upon it as an instrument whereby to excite the
dark passions, the unreasoning prejudices, of a
fanatic populace—and, behold the end draws nigh.
Beginnmg with a senseless clamor for re-enacting
the Missouri restriction in regard tp Kansas and
Nebraska, it went before the people in appeals to
I beir emotions instead of their common sense,
and has succeeded in building a powerful, a dan
gerous party, which promises evil only, an - il
continually. Making anti-slavery fanatic ‘ a
nucleus, it has gathered around that, as a con
trolling centre, all the vile isms of this generation,
{md stands forth to-day, hideous, revolting, loathe
tome, a menace not only to the Union of these
states, but to Society, to Liberty and to Law. It
Las drawn to it the corrupt, the vile, the licen
tious, the profligate, the lawless, and is the em
bodiment not only of anti-slavery, but of com
munism, of agrarianism, of free-loveism, and all
the abominations springing from a false society.
It has pandered to every vitiated taste of indi
viduals, and of communities—a very fiend, the
type of a lawless Democracy, a law unto itself, its
only Lord, King Numbers, its decrees but the will
of a wild mob.
Mr. Lincoln, its chosen Representative, declares
that the contest it is waging looks not to an end,
not even to a truce, in 1860, but whatever be the
result in this conflict, it must be renewed again
four years hence, and eight years hence, and con
tinually, until a crisis has been reached and pass
ed, until the public mind shall rest assured that
slavery is, by the government, placed in that po
sition which determines its final extinction, for he
holds that the country can not permanently exist
half slave and half free. Mr. Seward, the father
of the party, holds the same opinions, and that
there is an irrepressible conflict between freedom
and slavery, which must be fought out, making
the Territories its first battle ground and the
ivhoU country its last. Gen. Webb declares that
if the ballot-box prove ineffectual his party will
meet slavery sword in hand and drive it out. Mr.
Blair, Congressional Representative from
the South, declares it is vain to say the party does
not contemplate interference with slavery in the
-States. These are the views of its conservatives,
SujtNSß, Lovejot, Burlingame
and ot:W of its chiefs preach worse sedition still,
and half its present Representatives in. the House
indorse the Helper Book. The party is pimply
an organized Treason against the Government
and against Society—hostile not only to property,
bnt to life and liberty. This rabble can not gov
ern itself—how shall it govern this great nation ?
Against such a party, with such aims and pur
poses, we plead, as did Mr. Mr. Breckinridge at
Frankfort last December, for a union of all its op
ponents—plead, that we shall not fall to pieces on
questions of less than its overthrow. If the Re
publican party wins this contest it has perhaps
the battle for all time. Overthrow it now, and its
cohorts will be disbanded for want of plunder and
patronage, and by a wise course, eschewing all
agitations of slavery, and banishing the dema
gogues from the public councils, we may hope to
bring the North to its senses, and to restore har
mony, and thus preserve the Union. Let us then
all unite as one man for the defeat of this incen
diary horde, which threatens every thing we hold
dear. Let every thing else now be a minor con
sideration, until we can beat this great enemy,
avert this great threatened calamity. No more
important or eventful crisis can ever arise in our
affairs than that which now presents itself for our
consideration—let us be equal to it.
From the Atlanta American.
Tlie Voice of a Christian Patriot.
The following article is from the pen of one of
Georgia’s purest and most distinguished sons—
everywhere and by everybody recognized as a
Christian and Patriot. We commend it to the
careful perusal of every voter in Georgia, and ask
each one of them, in the language of the writer,
to —
“Look to your Responsibility. —B. H. Hill nev
er uttered a wiser sentiment, than when in a re
cent speech he denounced the policy of wasting
time in discussing the question as to what we shull
do in the contingency of Lincoln’s election, and
urged, instead, that we all unite, at once, in order
to prevent that contingency.
“If Lincoln’s election is to be made the reason
for disruption of this government, with its proba
ble consequences of immense and fearful blood
shed ; and if those parties who intend to disrupt
can prevent, aud yet do not prevent Lincoln’s
election, they, themselves, are virtually guilty of
making the cause, aud therefore they will be as
blameworthy as if they had disrupted without
cause. This proposition will not be controverted.
Let these men look well to their responsibility.
We will not stop to debate whether Lincoln’s
election, according to the forms of the Constitu
tion, would furnish a justifiable pretext for disso
lution. We have now no time for that. We have
other work to do. Urgent is the call in another
direction. A surgeon might feel the necessity of
cutting off a limb, provided gangrene shall reach
a certain point of progress. Yet, if he have it in
his power to arrest mortification before it reach
that point, and refuse to do it, and then cut olf the
limb, he is as much guilty as if he had cut off a
sound limb. If the fact, in such a case, could be
proven, the patient could recover damages. Be
sides this —unless he repent of the act—it would
damn his soul forever, be he ever so clever in
other respects. We repeat, those men who say
that, if Lincoln be elected, they will tear off the
limbs of this great Republic, and leave them to
rot upon the dunghill, and yet refuse to exert
their influence in order to prevent Lincoln’s elec
tion, had better look to their responsibility ? They
may have a bill to settle which shall cost them
more than .they can conveniently paj\ The ac
count will have to he settled. If their souls are
worth it, it will have to be paid.
The results of this day’s work will go beyond
the confines of a mere political arena. Christian
men, beware how you affiliate with party leaders
who will present you as on their paper,
when this dreadful claim comes up for adjudica
tion by-and-by ! Be assured, you shall not come
out thence until the uttermost farthing be paid’!
Caution.
In the first place, in case of the election of our
own candidates. Bell and Everett, we conceive
there is no man in the United States, who will not
feel that the Union would be stronger the day
after that vote should be declared, than it was the
day before. It will be seen and known of all men,
the fanatics themselves included, that all efforts
to violate the Constitution which is the bond of
union, will be in vain ; that we do not mean to
goad and annoy our neighbors and brothers for
ever, but forgetting our excitements and remem
bering our ancient feelings of cordiality and mu
tual respect, we will extena to them once more
the right hand of good fellow-ship, and that with
out regard to lesser points upon which men in
ordinary times differ, we consider this as no com
mou occasion, but as a reconciliation between
brothers who have been alienated by the artful
misrepresentations of some parties professing to
be friends to both, but in realit/false, treacherous
mischief makers, whose greatest pleasure is set
ting other people by the ears.
The prosperity which would be the consequence
of this renewed cordiality vould surpass anything
that has hitherto distinguished eventhis favored
country. The interchanges of trade, the harmony
which w-ould be exemplified aud strengthened by
a ronewal of our former free.intercourse, and the
change from mistrust and suspicion to cordiality
would mutually strengthen each ; and the inter
course, both friendly and commercial, of north,
and south and west, would spring into renewed
activity with such an impulse, that we should need
new facilities, new railroads, or some invention to
sepercede even them, to carry on the business
aud pleasure of the country. We should realize
the tact, which is so often overlooked, that news
papers do not always truly represent the views of
a community ;we should,"at least, learn that those
whieh are most violent are the least trustworthy.
We should feel, too, the utmost confidence that
the a7airs of the country, so far .as they depend
on the executive, and this is much, would be car
ried on wisely and safely ; and that if it were not
for the activity of small politicians, especially in
Congress, we might attend to our own private
concerns for the next four years, without an ap
prehension that anything would go wrong for
want of the supervision of the head of the na
tion.— Voice from the Belfry.
The Union Movement in Alabama.—We are
indebted to a friend in this city for the privilege
of making the following extract from a business
letter received by him from a gentleman in Mont
gomery, Alabama, a day or two ago :
“I am glad to see you have strong faith in sav
ing the Country. We all want to secure passage
on the steamship Union. I hope you have so
built her that she will accommodate all who ap
ply for passage. We have launched several
schooners here that outrun anything you ever
saw. This line of ships are known as the “Union
Line.” If they don’t carry a man through in
quicker time than any other” craft, the party own
ing these crafts will refund the passage money.
With such inducements to travelears, all are ma
king up their minds to go on the “Union Line.”
I don’t suppose you heard of the explosion of the
Breckinridge steamer. I don’t suppose there ever
was such destruction. This occurred on the 18th
instaut, at Selma. Thomas H. Watts was the
cause of the explosion. He proposed to the offi
cers of the craft to cast the Electoral vote of Ala
bama for Bell, Douglas or Breckinrindge; and,
sir, they would not agree to it. By this refusal,
some three or four hundred of the Union Breck
ites withdrew, and said that they would go on
the “Union Line.” I now believe Bell will carry
the State. I saw a man from Selma, to-day, who
was a Breckite, and he said the Breckinridge men
were fools. 1 think Breck is gone in this State ; I
am certain he is unless there is a stop put to peo
ple traveling on this “Union Line” of boats.
Let us hear from you again, soon.
Respectfully,” *
[Atlanta American.
A Fusion Ticket.—Some days ago the Atlanta
American, in view of the result of the recent elec
tions in some of the Northern States, proposed
that a fusion ticket be formed in this State from
the three electoral tickets now in the field, pledged
to cast the vote of the State for that candidate
who could defeat Lincoln. Since that proposition
was published, we notice that several of our ex
changes, of all parties, approve the movement.
The Hon. B. 11. Hill addressed a large meeting at
Atlanta, last week, at which a resolution was
adopted, requesting the three Executive Commit
tees of the State to meet and arrange such a
ticket. Y. A. Gaskill, Esq., Chairman of the
Breckinridge Executive Committee of Fulton co.,
being present, made a short but eloquent and
patriotic speech, favoring the plan.
It is now no time for crimination and recrimi
nation, and we hope that such a ticket will be
speedily arranged. A few trading politicians
may oppose it, but the masses.of the people of all
parties will sustain it. We have mentioned the
subject to several men of all parties, and have not
yet heard one condemn it, but all seem to favor
such a ticket. All profess to desire the defeat of
Lincoln. If they are sincere we will expect them
to pursue a course that will have the greatest
tendency to accomplish that desirable object.—
Then let all lay aside their personal preferences
and party prejudices and come up to tbe support
of a common electoral ticket.— Cassville Stunaard.
A few days since I returned home from a trip
through Virginia and Tennessee, and while on the
way returning the vote was takeu for President.
Between Washington City and Lynchburg the
vote was, for Bell 51, Breck. 87, Douglas 8 ; Octo
ber 13th. Between Lyinchburg, Va., aud Bristol,
Tenn., Bell had 28, Breck. 11, Douglas 1 ; Oct.
15th. Between Bristol and Knoxville the vote
was, for Bell 30, Breck. 5 Douglas 6 ; Oct. 18th.
I give you these dots that the people of our
State may know what is going on in these two
States. As Virginia and Tennessee go so goes a
majority of the South. lam confident that Mr.
Bell will carry Maryland, Vfrginia, North Caroli
na, Florida Louisiana, Tennessee, Kentucky and
Missouri.—Cor. Selina {Ala.) Reporter, Oct. 22 d.
Imbeciles. —One child in one thousand is an
imbecile. There are 30,000 in the United States.
They are so by ill-made marriages, by drunken
ness of parents, by neglect and ill-treatment, and
sometimes by medicine. Very little has ever been
done for them or thought possible. But it is true
that almost all such children can be brought up
so as to gain sufficient mental strength to take
care of themselves, and be measurably intelligent
and happy. The schools for imbeciles in Paris
have shown this. The little spark of mind they
have must be watched and fanned, and blown by
degrees into a flame. It may be done in a large
majority of cases. Schools have recently been
established in Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and
New York.
THE FAIR.
third day.
Yesterday was the great day of the Fair. At an
early hour of the day the tide of pedestriaus and
persons in vehicles, set towards the Fair Grounds,
and the stream continued for hours, until the
crowd assembled occupied nearly all the available
space, and the different walks thronged with peo
ple. At about nine o’clock the different ‘Military
Corps, with very full ranks, paraded our streets
and proceeded to the Grounds, where each Com
pany performed a series of evolutions with a pre
cision” which did credit to tlie patience of the offi
cers and the attention of the rank and file, and to
the delight of the admiring thousands. About
noon the Military retired, aud returned to their
Armories. This imposing display was succeeded
by the exciting trial of speed of Pacing and Trot
ting horses, in accordance with the published pro
gramme. The entries were numerous—the track
m tip-top condition—the stock all in fine order—
aud the contest animated. This is an exhibition
which arouses all the la’ent, enthusiasm of a
gathering at a Fair, and, from the manifestations,
there was no lack of it in the concourse of people
on the Grounds yesterday.
At 3 o’clock, the Engines, Atlanta No. 1, Me
chanic No. 2, and Tallulah No. 3, appeared upon
the ground in all their “beauty and glory,” atten
ded by the stalwart forms and sinewy arms of
their members, for the purpose of contending for
a Silver Pitcher, valued These companies
were accompanied by the Hook and Ladder Com
pany, with their gorgeous Truck and Apparatus,
which, by its delicate outline and elegant decora
tion added no little to the pageant. The Engines
being placed in position, the contest, which was
most spirited, commenced. No. 1, true as steel,
powerfully manned as to muscle, made a gallant
play, throwing water 165 feet 11 inches. She is
more noted for power than for speed. No. 2 came
up gallantly and confidently, all elate with hope
and anticipated triumph. With unexampled spirit
her men came up to the work, and made the hand
some distance of 193 feet 11 inchest Loud huzzas
greeted her w-hen the announcement was made.
Next and last, hopeful, but not confident, No. 3,
the beautiful “Tallulah,” entered the field. She
was regarded, from the first, as a somewhat trou
blesome antagonist, as there was to be less muscle
in this Company than in the others. The result
of her trial was, that she threw water 198 feet,
thus beating No. 2 four feet, and bearing off the
Prize amid the shouts and cheers of the thousands
of spectators.
Not the least attractive featifTe of the day was
the appearance on the Grounds, of a party of
twenty-seven ladies , teachers aud pupils of the
“Spring Hill School,” under the supervision of
that gifted advocate of the development of South
ern Agriculture, and actual independence in the
Union, Rev. C. W. Howard, all attired in a sub
stantial Check Homespun Dress, made fashiona
bly full and flowing. When this spirit of indepen
dence seizes upon the minds of our daughters and
wives, divested of its fanaticism as manifested by
the sterner sex, we may look for good practical
results. The members of this school brought for
exhibition, but not to contest for Premiums, a
large number of very beautiful articles, such as
tidys, embroidered slippers, aud various articles
of dress, and fancy Bead Work for Table Mats,
&c. Some of these Ihtter were very beautiful, a
crewel ground being first wrought on canvas, and
then the Bead Work done on the crewel. One
tidy done with crewel in Crochet, was decidedly
elegant, the colors, bright and varied, being
blended with truly artistic effect. But twenty
seven blooming, bright-eyed Southern lasses, in
cloth of Southern Manufacture, of which the sta
ple was peculiar to their homes, was indeed a
sight worth seeing on a Southern Fair Ground.
Miss Emma Bailey, of Chambers county, Ala.,
exhibits a case of Wax-Work, which exhibits
every variety of Fruit and Garden Vegetables .of
the lesser size so true to nature that one feels
much inclined to taste. The same tasteful and
skillful lady also exhibits a splendid frame in
Leather Work, which represents Acorns, Grapes,
Roses, Morning Glories, Tulips, Ac., with the
leaves appropriate to each.
Miss Stearns, instructress in the Ornamental
Department of the Atlanta Female Institute, ex
hibits three very beautiful specimens of Art. One
a gorgeous Vase and [Flowers in Oriental Paint
ing, another a Harp embedded in a profusion of
flowery foliage, and the third, in antique, repre
senting a portion of the Royal Family of Great
Britain, encased in a beautiful shell-work frame.
Next year we may expect innumerable exquisite
specimens from the Institute.
Unprecedented Success of the Fair. —We are
informed that the receipts of this week, up to last
night, had exceeded $3,500, which is nearly forty
per cent, more than they were last year, and that
all tne expenses will be more than mrt. This is,
in the highest degree, gratifying to all its friends,
especially as fears were entertained that the strin
gency of the times, monetarily, and the unsettled
condition of politics, would have a depressing
effect. We would not be surprised if the actual
receipts summed up nearly $4,000, or about fifty
per cent, increase over those of last year.
Georgia State Agricultural Society. —The
Society held its regular annual meeting last night
in the City Council Room at the City Ilall. There
was a fair attendance. The following are the offi
cers elect for the current year, viz :
President, Hon. D. W. Lewis, of Hancock.
VICE presidents.
Ist.—Hon. George P. Harrison, of Chatham.
2d.—T. M. Furlow, Esq., of Sumter.
3rd.—ls. F. Ward, of Butts.

Corresponding Secretary—Rev. C. W. Howard,
of Kingston, Cass county.
The last is a newly * created office. The Vice
Presidents are distributed by Congressional Dis
tricts,, the numbers indicating the district each
represents. The Secretary is elected by the Ex
ecutive Committee, the members of which are ap
pointed by the President, and whose names will
be announced in due time. The time and place
for holding the next Fair will be fixed by the
Executive Committee.— Atlanta American', -iUh.
From New York. —Private letters, says the
Louisville Journal, received by the Union Execu
tive Committee at Louisville contain the gratifying
intelligence that our friends in that State are per
fectly confident of defeating Lincoln. A meeting
of the best informed and most active politicians
of New York was held a few days since, and the
estimate made by all was, that the counties South
of Albany would give a majority against Lincoln
of at least 75,000. Last year they gave 35,930.
It is not considered possible for the remainder of
the State to give over 50,000 Republican majority.
Last year these other counties gave a Republican
majority of 34,481. The struggle there was mani
festly made to secure the nomination ot Seward
by the Republican Convention at Chicago, and his
friends bent every energy in the Abolition and
Republican strongholds. It does seem impossible
that they can give over 40,000 upon the last year’s
vote, and if our friends’ estimate of these South
ern counties is correct, we cannot see how Lincoln
can carry the State.
Macon “Telegraph.” —Our contemporary is
evidently in a fog on the disunion question, and
if he will ring Ins bell and give us his whereabouts,
we will try and come to his relief. He objects to
our classiug him among the opponents of disunion
on account of Lincoln’s election, and at the same
time is unwilling to be considered as belonging
to the other side of the question ! It is a dear
case of nebulous obscuration. He thinks, how
ever, that he would stand disunion rather than “a
permanent submission to a hostile abolition gov
ernment”—a sort of “when necessary” argument
which leaves him iu quite as deep a mist as he
was before. Upon the whole, though, we “sorter
guess,” as the downeaster would say, that the
Telegraph would, be willing to stand the Union
for at least one abolition term.— Savannah Repub

Fraction I Advice to Ladies.—The first symptoms
of disease should never be disregarded. If not removed, serious
evils W;ll inevitably follow, and in seeking assistance all reme
dies that will act violently or reduce the strength, should be
avoided. They, instead of assisting nature, weaken and de
bilitate those organs. For Female Complaints, take MC
LEAN’S STRENGTHENING CORDIAL AND BLOOD
PURIFIER. It stands pre-eminent in all diseases peculiar to
females. Try it; it Isa delicious aromatic Cordial.

Asthma, Quinsy, Pthisie, diseases of tlie Throat, Chest and

rable disease. Those who have used this remedy know its
value ; those who have not have but to make a single trial to

Colds ami Coughs, and have found it the most efficacious
remedy that I have ever tried.
For Coughs and Colds in children, 1 know it to be an excel

March 19, 1859 :
“ I was troubled in January last witli costiveness for several
days, and took ten grains of calomel to obtain relief. I caught
cold, I suppose ; at any rate, a severe diarrhea set in, which my
medical attendant fouud it impossible to arrest. This was fol
lowed by dysentery. My strength was all gone Everything
passed through me as I took it. A friend lrom New York, Mr.
George Lewis, fortunately called on me, and advised Bran
dreth’s Pills, I thought In my weak condition, one pill would be
enough, but lie administered four, and the next morning four
more. Much impurity came from me, and, to my surprise, the
soreness and pain diminished. One box cured me fully. I am
now hearty, with a good appetite.”
