PRatform 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 tnat thereby peace may once more he
restored to the country, the just rights cA the
Siople, and of the States re-established, and the
ovemment 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 common defence, promote the ger eral welfare,
and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves
and our posterity.”
Hon. D. VV. Lewis and the Speaker
ship.
Mb. Editor : —lt has occurred to me that the
mantle of the Speakership, which has but so re
cently and sadly been removed from the shoul
ders of the lamented Irvin, could not be placed
upon a more deserving man than the Hon. D. W T .
Lewis, of Hancock. Whether we regard this gen
tleman in reference to his native abilities, his
large acquirements, his legal knowledge, his high
moral excellence, his uniform urbanity and cour
tesy of manner, or his long acquaintance and fa
miliarity with legislative proceeding, he is emi
nently fitted for the station.
The members of the House of Representatives
will, by conferring the high honor upon this just
ly distinguished son of Georgia, not only pay a
merited compliment to moral and intellectual
worth, but honor themselves and please the peo
ple generally without distinction of party. In all
probability the approaching session of the legis
lature will be one of marked and momentous in
terest in the history of our beloved State, and the
necessity of having a presiding officer in the
House of ripe experience, a big heart, and a cool
head, cannot be too greatly magniOed. The wri
ter differs now, and has for several years differ
ed, with Mr. Lewis on some leading questions of
both State and National policy, yet notwithstand
ing this, Mr. L. has ever challenged our confidence
and respect, bv his entire honesty, his patriotic
manliness, anti his marked ability ; and we most
cordially urge bis name for this distinguished
post, feeling that by so doing we are, not only set
ting.a good example in these troublous times of
partisan strife, but making a suggestion, which, if
adopted, will redound to the good of the State.
H.
We copy the above communication from the
Sandersville Georgian, and heartily endorse the
suggestion. As the Breckinridge party has a
majority in the House it will doubtless elect one
of its own members to the vacant Speakership,
and among them all we know of no one who would
moie fitly till the position than the Hon. D. W.
Lewis, who was elected, unanimously we believe,
the Speaker pro tern, at the last session. For the
honor o? the State we hope the House will elect
as its presiding officer a gentleman , a man of cha
racter, experience and ability, such a one as D.
W. Lewis, Williams of Muscogee, Smith of
Towns, Harris of Glynn, dr Deloney of Clarke.
If the House should see fit to choose a man
not of the Democratic party, there is no better
selection could be made than the Hon. Miles W.
Lewis, of Greene.
Accepting Office from Lincoln.
The Breckinridge revolutionists have raised a
loud out-cry against any man in the South
ing an office from the Lincoln Administration.
This is only one of their regular games, and has
but one object in view', and that is to keep the offi
ces and the plunder for themselves. There is posi
tively no other design in the movement, except
that. These plunder-mongers want to save the
spoils for themselves, come what may, and there
fore they have raised this cry, in the hope and
belief that no one would accept office under Lin
coln, and they could thus hold on to the Treasu
ry pap. If it be unpatriotic to accept office from
Lincoln, it is equally so to hold on to one under
him. Os the Federal offices in the South, by far
the largest are Post-offices—there are very few
Collectors, Judges, Marshalls and Attorneys, but
many thousand Post-masters, and their commissions
require them to remain in the discharge of the
duties of the office, by themselves or assistantants,
until relieved by the Department, or until their
successors are ajrpointed.
Have our Democratic friends who design sup.
porting Mr. Breckinridge ever reflected upon the
fact that they have got neither candidate nor plat
form ? It is a fact, nevertheless, that they have
no regualarly nominated candidate, and no au
thorized. Democratic platform. The Breckinridg
ers deny that Mr. Douglas or his platform are
either regular or binding; and while they admit
that Mr. Breckinridge can not claim to be the
regular candidate, they seem strangely to have
forgotten or overlooked the fact, that the platform
on which he ostensibly stands is not in any sense
an authoritative exposition of the Democratic
creed* For if two-thirds of the electoral college
are necessary to nominate, and a majority neces
sary to lay down the principles of the party, then
they are without both candidate and platform.
Really, the Convention which met at the Mary
land Institute had no commission fiom their mas
ters, the people, to nominate a candidate or make
a creed, for the delegates in fact assembled there
solely on their own authority, representing only
themselves, and their action is binding on nobody
but themselves, either as to candidate or creed.

By letters received from friends within the last
few'days, and by verbal reports we learn that the
friends of the Union are becoming aroused in our
mountain counties. Habershan, White, Union,
Towns, Rabun, Lumpkin and Dawson will all give
a good account of themselves on Tuesday next,
as will also all the intermediate country with the
exception of but one county—where our gains
will be small.
Push on the column ! The Union men of the
6th District are not yet prepared to “precipitate
the cotton Slates into a revolution !”
We clip the above from our Athens cotempora.
ry, the Southern Watchman , and it is such news
as we received also at Atlanta last Monday aud
Tuesday. The accounts are indeed very cheering
from the sixth district, and also from the third,
fourth aud fifth. It is certain. now that Mr.
Breckinridge can not get a majority of the popu
lar vote of Georgia, and it is of the very first im
portance that he should not, because such a ma
jority would be construed by his intemperate and
intolerant adherents as a commitment of this great
State to any wild, foolish, impracticable policy of
revolution that the wildest of them might propose
In the event of Lincoln’s election, we shall re
quire all the wisdom, coolness and courage of our
people to determine properly the course which a
due regard for the best interests of the greatest
number of people requires to be pursued. It is
then of the most vital interest to this people that
the Breckinridge madcaps he rebuked at the
ballot-box, not only on account of the effect here,
but throughout the whole South.
Mr. Breckinridge will get perhaps somewhere
between forty and forty-five thousand votes—we
think it impossible for his vote to exceed forty
five thousand. Bell’s vote will be in the same
neighborhood, if his friends all turn out, and Le
gets none but his friends : but we learn that the
most able and influential, and best-posted Demo
crat in the State says that Bell will get a majority.
The combined vote of Douglas and Bell iu the
3rd, 7th and Bth Districts will show a majority
against Breckinridge of 12,000. It is confidently
believed that Bell and Douglas together will tie
Breckinridge in fifth, while our own people be
lieve there will be an anti-BRECKiNRiDGE majority
of one thousand. But, under any circumstances,
it will be impossible to overcome the majority of
the 3rd, 7th and Bth, by the votes of the Ist, 2nd,
4th, sth, and 6th. It is impossible for the Breck
inridge majority to exceed 4,000 in the first and
second, it will not be more than 1,000 or 1,500 in
the 4th, and certainly not more than 2,500 in the
6th. At the very best, the Breckinridge party is
bound to be in a minority iu the popular vote of
Georgia.
But if no election be made by the people, the
Breckinridge men feel confident of electing their
ticket in the Legislature, which was elected with
out any reference to this matter, and which ought
not to have anything to do with it if possible to
prevent. This con be prevented, if the Union men
only will it: The Bell aud Douglas men are
Union men, and as Bell is far the stronger of the
two, it is right and proper and patriotic that every
Douglas man, who does not desire the vote of
Georgia cast for Breckinridge, thus endorsing
the revolutionary and crazy schemes of his intoler
ant partisans, to vote outright for John Bell. This
is no time for party feeling, but it is a time when
the moderate men should unitejagainst the intoler
ant aud bigoted party zealots, and thus secure
to themselves, and in their ou n hands, the man
agement of affairs in the near future. Besides,
it is good policy for the Douglas men not to show
their hands ; and they can consistently vote the
Bell ticket, as that ticket is pledged to the man
who can defeat Lincoln. If they can not all
vote for Belt, let as many of them do so as con
scientioua can, and let the balance stay at home,
and we shall thus defeat the precipitators of revo
lution in Georgia to a dead certainty; and the
election of the Union ticket is the only sure way
of defeating those who have superciliously re
fused uuity and harmony in the State. Recol
lect that we are on the eve of a great revolution
—a great revolution of parties, at least, and gov
ern yourselves accordingly. Many of the Breck
inridge voters will vote the Union ticket, now
that the Breckinridge leaders have refused to
unite with their brethren of the other parties, and
if this matter is managed properly Breckinridge
will surely be defeated in Georgia, and Douglas
will lose nothing. In a word then, let all the Bell
men, all the Dotglas men, and all the Breckin
ridge men who earnestly desire unity of
here at home, and who do not desire to commit
themselves to unconditional revolution and civil
war, to begin right here among us, go to the polls
and vote the straight out Union ticket. Let no
Union man stay away, under any circumstances,
for on the election of Tuesday depends no party
success, but the triumph or defeat of sectionalism,
and the existence or destruction of the govern
ment. It is really a test of the experiment of self
government.
A Last Word!
The canvass closes this week, so far as we are
concerned. Before another issue of our paper,
the American people will have settled the great
question of Human Liberty, not for a day or any
one country, but for all time and the whole world !
At the battle of the Pyramids, Napoleon, in his
address to the army, reminded his soldiers, that
“forty centuries” were looking upon them ami
would observe their conduct that day. American
freemen will next Tuesday be watched by all the
centuries of the Past as well as the Future ! The
great problem of man’s capacity for self-govern
ment is to be settled ! It has been predicted from
the outset by monarchists that our experiment in
self-government would utterly fail—that, torn
aDd rent by factions, the sun of our prosperity
would set in anarchy and blood ! Aud oh !if the
counsels of those had men who wish to “precipi
tate” ns into revolution shall prevail, who shall
undertake to say that these predictions will not
be speedily fulfilled ?
So far as we can see, there is but one door of
escape—the conservative, national men of all
parties must unite in a common effort to crush out
sectionalism! Before the present canvass opened
this was our advice to our fellow-countrymen. We
were then willing to unite with our fellow-citizens
in support of any sound, conservative, national
ticket—we are now willing to do so.
There are three tickets in the field, either one
of which is far preferable to Lincoln. We have
shown, however, time and again, that there is no
possibility of electing either Breckinridge or
Douglas, while there is a chance for Bell to defeat
Lincoln. In addition to this, we have demonstra
ted that the election of Breckinridge would not
restore peace aud quiet, because he is regarded at
the North as an extreme sectional man, and his
election would be as offensive to the people there
as would the election of Lincoln to the people of
the South. We have shown that the election of
Douglas would not restore peace, because his pe
culiar Territorial doctrines are distasteful to the
South.
What then is the duty of every patriot of every
party ? Manifestly it is to vote for John Bell, the
conservative, moderate candidate, whose election
can give offence to none , because he will respect the
rights of all sections. He occupies that happy
medium which is always safe , and generally right.
Why not vote for him, then ? There is nothing
but party in the way ! But who will place the in
terests of party in competition with the preserva
tion of the glorious institutions of our country t
If such there be, they are unworthy the land of
Washington and and a disgrace to the memory of
their Revolutionary fathers ! Let us all, then, re
gardless of party leaders, go to the polls on Tues
day, and vote for John Bell, one of the truest
sons of the Sirtith, and as such, incapable of
wronging any sectiou of the Confederacy !
It is needless for us to say one word more. We
entered upon this campaign with a determination
to conduct it, so far as we were councered, fairly,
honorably, truthfully. With the solemn sense
of the weighty obligations resting upon us as an
editor, and with fearful forebodings as to the fu
ture of our beloved country, we have suffered
nothing to divert us from our'purpose. We have
stated facts to the people, ana calmly and dispas
sionately appealed to their good sense and pa
triotism—rather than their prejudices and pas
sions. We have defended John Bell, that pure
man and true Southern patriot, against the slan
ders so industriously circulated against him ; but
in doing so, we have scrupolously avoided abuse
of his competitors. We have also carefully avoid
ed newspaper controversies with cotemporaries,
and every ihing calculated to arouse bad feelings
and stir up prejudice. In reviewing our course,
we find nothing with which to reproach ourself,
aud can fearlessly say, “what we have written we
have written !” Our great desire has been, and
is, to discharge our duty faithfully in this fearful
crisis. May God in his mercy enable us all to do
so fearlessly ! — Athens Watchman.
Vice President Breckinridge authorizes the an
nouncement that the letter published over his
signature, purporting to be addressed to Dr. J. T.
P. Coboon, Elizabeth City, N. C., under date of
the stb inst., is a forgery. He has written no such
letter.
Baked Quinces.— Mr. C. D. Bringham tells us
that anew sensation is in store for those who have
never eaten quinces baked like applies, and eaten
with sugar aud cream. His plan is to take fair
ripe quinces, bake them rather quicker than ap
ples, cut them open and remove the core, which
will come out, if the fruit is properly cooked, like
a nut from the shell. Sprinkle on’ white sugar,
and eat them before they are quite cooled, adding
milk or cream. Our informant says the fruit
cooked and eaten in this manner has a delicious
flavor, which would scarcely be imagined.

PT* Hoetetter’s Stomach Bittern.— The doubt with
which an oft deceived community is apt to look upon all medi
cal preparations, has long since been completely vanquished by
the triumphant, universal and invariable success of HOSTET
TER’S STOMACH BITTERS. Their effect in all disorders
of the digestive organs are not miraculous, because they are the
necessary result of certain me ical properties never heretofore
combined in one preparation, but they are nevertheless aston
ishing. Aged persons who deemed themselves past help from
medicine, declare (to use the words of a correspondent,) that
the Bitters seems to have given them anew lease of life. Un
questionably the majority of dangerous diseases are the off
spring of dyspepsia, and for this compla : nt, as well as the mala
dies out of it, there is nothing in the world like Hostetter’s
Stomach Bitters, which is now sold by all Druggists through

tf* Brandreth'a Pilla are growing more in favor with the
public. It is now conceded they are the best purgative yet put
firth from the world of medicine. The time will surely arrive
when they will supersede all other purgatives whatever. The
ingredients of which they are composed can scarcely be obtain
ed by druggists or the makers of other pills. Dr. Brandreth
has them grown and prepared without regard to the expense.
And this care to make a popu ar purgative is appreciated, as
their sales indicate. Other purgatives are dragging a flickering
existence. And yet they may have some merit. But BRAN
DRETH’S PILLS are safe and sure—safe, because they ope
rate solely on impure humors. No valuable fluid is touched;
only effete or worn-out material, which, when taken out of the
body leaves it stronger. They are as pleasant as a truly effec
tive medicine can be. To say that they will not sometime give
pain would not be crue, but the pain they give ia only because
they remove those trude and bad humors from the blood which
are the occasion of disease. They open nature's avenues, and
this cannot always be done pleasantly.

I have been regularly appointed her Executor, having been
duly sworn and qualified. I have faithfully performed my
duty, as my retnrus, regularly made to the Court of Ordinary,
and passed by it, will prove. Believing that his Honor Judge
Holt erred In this case, I have appealed to the Supreme Court
of Georgia. It seems to be intended to disregard this appeal,
on account of some alleged trivial informality which, if It has
occurred, was caused by sickness.
1 most solemnly protest against the appointment of a Re
ceiver In this case. It is the result of a most disgraceful com-
Srornise proposed by John K. Jackson, Esq., and agreed to by
Ir. John B. Whitehead for himself and others, to relieve the
Banks from the necessity of dismissing their levies, or of having
to plead before a Jury in a case in which It would have keen
shown that their ludgment was obtained by undeniable perfi
dy, which operated upou the injured party as a fraud and swin

EVERY MERCHANT
SHOULD HAVE A
Reliable Fire and Burglar Proof
safe s
mHE only successful attempt to manufacture SAFES upon
X scientific, and therefore reliable principles, is found in
Valentine* Butler's Alum Patent Fire and Burglar Proof
SAFE. Chemistry has been brought to afford its assistance to
this important ooiect, and with the most absolute success. The
merchant has in this Safe a perfect guaranty for the safety of
his records, in all the required forms of security against fire,
depredation ana dampness. The manufacturers claw, upon
the fallowing grounds, that this is the only depository devised
for the safe keeping of valuables, which can lustly be termed a
SAFE. The Safes sold by the various makers, are filled either
on the vaporizing or nonconducting principle. The Alum
Patent Safe is made upon the former principle. All others are
filled with Plaster of Parle. Pipe Clay, or similar substances,
called non-conductors of beat, which quality neither these or
any others possess, except in a partial and inadequate degree.
They are, however, sometimes successful in resisting a mode
rate fire, because the plaster is put in when moist, but this
moisture dries out at the rate of twenty per cent a year, besides
corroding the lining of the Safe, and injuring documents by
reason of the dampness having a tendency to discharge ink
from paper. Important documents have been frequently de
stroyed by being kept in damp Safes. Many Safes, which their
owners confidently count upon as security for their money and
papers, will be found to be anything but Safes in the time of
trial, especially if they are three or four years old.
The Alum Patent Safe is filled with natural salts, which re
main perfectly dry until heated, when they discharge so much
steunT as to render it impossible for their contents to be de
stroyed. During the twelve years they have been in use. not
withstanding hundreds of them have been subjected to the
severest ordeals, not one has failed to preserve its contents un
injured. As fast as the public become acquainted with the
principle upon which a Safe should be made, they purchase
them to the exclusion of ail others. Their quality as a Burglar
Proof Safe has been most severely tested, and in no Instance
has the burglar succeeded in entering one of them. The lock
Is powder-proof, and the key can be carried in the vest pocket.

A WORD FOR HEALTH.
The INPECTINE, or PERSIAN FEVER CHARM, Is the
only compouud that can be said to be the natural antidote to
those bilious fevers which, in various forms afflict the human
family. The ordinary remedies for intermittent fevers, and
pronounced to eradicate the Fever and Ague particularly, only
create new diseases in the systeffi, and thus oring about the
most distressing results In this great Persian Specific we have
a natural remedy—one that pierces to the seat of the disease,
and by giving an immediate tone to the organs of the Stomach,
recuperates the shattered frame and promotes cheerfulness or
spirits. If persons who suffer from the effects of Fever and
Ague, or from t..e medicines which theyhave taken in vain to
alleviate their misery, will rive the Persian Charm a single
trial, they will find that their health will be restored, and that
they may renew those happy hours of life which they suppose
are gone forever. The numerous cures which have been made
by this remedy are the best evidence of its value. Thev who
desire to regain their health will not neglect to apply this
remedy.

FEVER AND AGUE NOT SECTIONAL.
The causes of Fever and Ague are ever existing in all place?.
They do not necessarily exist in wet and marshy localities.
They assail the home ia the mountain as well as that in the
valley. They are active in cities as well as in rural districts,
and the human system is always liable to be attacked by the
malady. It is easy to preveht the approach of the disease by
applying the PERSIAN FEVER CHARM, which is agreea
ble to the senses, and does not in any way interfere with the
organs of digestion. They who wish to escape any kind ot
fever, will find it for their advantage to procure this inv: luab'.e
preventive of such diseases. When they have procured it, they

ORIGIN OF DISEASE.
The wise physician knows that man must seek the remedy of
every disease in the agent that is most positively antagonistic to
the cause. The Ingredients of this remedy and preventive of
disease are procured at the very fountains where the disease
originates. Nature has provided that piants with healing influ
ences shall grow in the marshes and low grounds where most
rankly the causes of Intermittent fevers are generated Centu
ries ago these properties were discovered, and hence it Is that
the Persians are enabled to be free from such diseases, while the
strangers pasting through their country are afflicted till they
learn of the remedy, now carefully prepared for the use of tne
people of this country. *
