American Stale Convention.
When it has been found by a discontented and
factious opposition, that a party which has a
firm basis in the doctrines of truth, and has
gained tho ufi'ections of the people, and then*
by the control and power of the Government—
it has invariably been the endeavor of these
malcontents, to experiment on the euritosity,
the prejudices or the passions of that people.
But a twelve month has passed since the people
of Georgia were subjected to this play upon
their feelings . Their curiosity was stimulated
by the dark and hidden recesses ot the Council
Room, the forms and ceremonies of the Ritual,
tho gavil the United States Flag and the solemn
oaths. Their prejudices were appealed to by
an indiscriminate atttackupon those men whom
poverty and hardship had compelled (as our
ancestors were compelled) to seek a refuge In
our country ; and appealed to in that practical
way which while it would deprive all these
immigrants (whether naturalised or not) of
all the olllces of the country, would give to
them the plunder to reward the faithful of
their own ranks.
Their passions were aroused by that spirit
which has caused the Protestant to hum at the
Catholic stake, and which was refined^ but in
tensified in the Puritans of later days.
The result is known to all. The veil of dark-
uess was tom from their machinations by their
opponents, and they then declared that they
disapproved and abolished it. The plundering
application of their objection to foreigners was
exposed to light, and then, they, avered that
they had no objection to those already natural
ized, but only those who were to come. The
hideously unconstitutional feature of their or
ganization came under the hunil of unsparing
criticism, and then they told us that they had
never approved it. Where those tilings which
they had solemnly stated as great truths in secret
were blazoned to the world (by no act of their
own) they hung their heuds like the school-
boy, und acknowledged to be most startling er
rors. .
It will easily be conceived to which party we
aliude. The prevailing evil of which is the
continued shifting of Us position, and the un
certainty of its tenets. It was of that facile
construction, that at one corner of the street,the
Democrat was enlisted by an assurance that he
would only become a better Democrat, at the
other, old Whig *,of course knowing its frien
dly elements, received the sign particulars,
and tho indifferent in Savannah were secured
by the assertion that it was an institution for
City Reform.
The American party of Georgia having sport
ed with principles, and, like the child and his
play-things, thrown them aside, have now de
termined upon an experiment in political poli
cy more novel than wonderful—yet more ludi
crous than cither. They have held a conven.
tion at Macon, have declared principles, and
nominated candidates. They have established
themselves as mi independent organization, yet
have nominated ns their candidate the mun
selecledfby a party of which they|form but the
faction. They put forth a platform which is a
factious contradiction or the principles of their
candidate and their cuudidate’a party, and
which prudence has taught, them no* to leave
undone. They have done this to blind tho eyes
of the people, while they depend for success ou
the amiablo virtues ofoue man,and the respect
ability and worth ot tho gentlemen who are
placed on their electoral ticket. They do this
in Georgia to raise the issue of "Men, not prin
ciples,”—;! reversal of all established rules.
While we must commend the prudence in
their IMatform, we must be permitted to remark
upon the first us it becomes contrasted with the
7tli section of that structure—while they
claim the Union, “ asil paramount” something
iu the former, in the latter they declare it a
reed which is to be broken by the act which
their candidate approves.
In conclusion, we would say, that wo ap
preciate tho motive of its action. Hatred of
Democracy “ tho paramount political good.”
not the hope of success, but the hope, of dis
aster to the Democracy , and the pleasurable
anticipation of " Mr. Micuwber” of being near
at hand in case anything should turn up.
We laid hoped that this farce would not have
been enacted, which charity alone can term
egregious folly,and which, if each State were to
do likewise, would erray Mr. Fillmore iu a gnr-
raent of principle, pa rtri-colored andjehequored
like that of Harlequin in the play.

The evidence being concluded, Mr. Brooks
rose, and the thronged court room listened in
absorbed silence while he proceeded, in a few
brief words, most appropriately expressed, to
address the court, as follows;
May it please your Houor : May I be per
mitted to say a word ? [Judge Crawford--
Certainly.] 1 appear in person before this
honorable court simply to reeelvo its judgment.
1 would have preferred that the person upon
whom the assault was committed had been pre
sent to answer whether or not his sjieech which
libelled my State and my blood, was printed
l>eforc its delivery Id the Senate. 1 feel confi
dent that undei oath he could not have denied
thisfuct, which with due deference to your
Honor, 1 regard as material to my defence, in
somuch us a libel is contrary to law, and to
that extend woult operate iu extenuation of
my otl'ence.
J would like to have inquired of him, in per
son, as to the degree of his persoual juries,
and to have been infonned in what way he
could reconcile that part of his statement as to
the words used by me wbeu the assault was
made, with the sentence which immediately
succeeds the language iu bis testimony before
the Investigating Committee, and which is as
follows:
"While these words were passing from his
[iny] lips, he commenced a succession of blows
with a heavy cane on ray bare head, by thefirsi
of which I was stunned so as to lose sight.”
it would have gratified me had he been com
pelled to auswer under oath as to the violence
ot the first blow, which, I aver, was but a tap,
and intended to put him on his guard.
But, sir, he is conveuieutly and deliberately
absent and on travel, notwithstanding but sLx
days ago tids case was postponed on account of
his extreme indisposition and the materiality
of his testimony; and yet, with all these disad
vantages, I prefer to receive the judgment of
the court than to continue in suspeuse.

cxiinluing her effects #2600, in gold, silver and
notes, was found, together with evidence of her
owning a plantation In Kentucky, and twenty
shares of railroad stock. Around her body
wu found a belt fell of gold coin.
It is not my purpose to address any evidence
in defence.
I have already accomplished more than 'half
of the journey of life, aud this la the first time
that it has been my m isfortune to be arraigned
before any judicial tribunal as a breaker of any
laws of my country. I confess, sir, and with
out shame, that ray sensibilities are disturlied
by my novel position, and 1 have but to ex
press my profound regret that in discharging
a duty imposed upon me by my own sense of
right aud the sentiment ot the gallant people
it is my pride and honor to represent, I am con
strained us a consequence to approach you
us a violator and not as a maker of the
laws.
In extenuation of my oflbnee, permit me to
say that no extraordinary power of invention
is requisite to imagine a variety of personal
grivauces, which the good of society and even
public morality require to be repressed ; and
yet no adequate legal remedy may lie had. So
also are those cases which lnayjiall under the
condemnation of the letter of the law, and yet
like consideration will restrain its penalties.
The villain who perverts the best feelings of
the better sex, and rewards unsuspecting devo
tion with ruin, may bid defiance to this honora
ble court. But where a slaters dishonor is blot,
ted out with the blood of her destroyer, an in
telligent and wlioisome public opinion, embodi
ed in intelligedt and virtuous jury, always has,
and always will, control the law, and populir
sentiment will applaud what the book may
condemn. f
It Is the glory of the law that is founded in
reason. But can that reasoning Ijo just which
is not regardfid of human feeling ? Sir, no one
knows better than yoursel f that such a reproach
does not reRt upon our jurisprudence; for, even
the stern letter of the law touches with tender
ness the husband who sluys iu tho act the usur
per of his bed. The child who kills iu defence
of its parent Is excused by tho law, which Is
ever regardful of the virtuous impulses of na
ture.
By a parity of reasoning, patriotism is re-
S irdcd by every nation upon earth as the car-
iiml political virtue. Sons ure made to re
ward it, and to perpetuate the names of those
who are its exemplars. And can it bo expected,
will it be required—that I, with a heart to feel
and an arm to strike, shall patiently hear and
ignobly submit while my political mother is
covered with insult, nfad obloquy, and dishon
or? while her character is slandered, and her
reputation libelled ?
Sir, the substance I have been gathering
for my children may be squandered, my body
may be consigned to the common jail, my life
itself may be forfeited, but I will be true to
the instincts of my nature—time to the home
of my maturity, and to tho mother that bore
me.
The first political lesion which my rippen-
ing faculties fully comprehended and nppre
ciuted, was the high moral aud social obliga
tions of every citizen to bow himself to the
majesty of the law. Iu obedience to the pre
cepts of my youth which are sanctioned by the
experience and judgement of mature years, I
submit my case to the discretion of tne court
with entire confidence, that while you, sir, as
a magistrate perform your [whole duty to the
country and yourself, you will remember that
in every regulated communnity, public opinion
distinguishes between crime and honorable re.
sentmeut and tolerhtcs |the refuge which men
sometimes seek in the magnanimity Cof their
judges.
Upon the conclusion of Mr. Brooks’s remarks,
Juoge Crawford proceeded to give the follow
Ing decision:
"As this matter will lie within a short time
tho subject of investigation in another place,
and as it is not nocossary to the discharge of
my duty that I should remark on the evidence
adduced, which l could not do- without touch
ing on some of the points that will probably be
raised elsewhere, it appears to mo to be proper
that the sentence of the Court bo pronounced
without comment. That sentence is that the
defendant pay a fine of $300.

From Lire Illustrated.
. remember it was ever so many yean ago—
for I have g»t silver streaks la my hair now,
aud there was nothing of that sort theu—that 1
went wandering away to the back or the old
homestead, down through the pleasant meadow
that stretched ulong for such n distance, feeling
as happy as a lord, and altogether indifferent to
any sort of luck that the future might have iu
store. It was a delicious morning in early June.
Of coarse there were birds enough (null the
trees, and of course they put forth the very best
they could do in the way of song. What they
did was lutoxicatiiig. I really do not believe
that, before or since, I have ever felt such an
infiux of purely spiritual influences.
I was not alone that morning, us I am going
on to tel! you. Our folks had kept open house
for some three or four weeks, for the sake of
their friends; and among them, ray Uncle
Nathan and his wife being present, from ever so
many hundred miles away, was their daughter
—my pretty Cousin Kate. And a roguish crea
ture sue was, too. Fuller of glee thun any girl
I had ever seen before. With a laugh like that
of a syren, dear and musical, with alow,
sweet voice that was capable of getting up n
very sudden confidence between yourself and
her. With as fair a complexion, and as dark
hair aud eyes, and as white aud dazzling teeth,
uud us ruqy-red lips as you can find anywhere
eLsein the world for the hunting. Ah, but
Cousin Kate was churralim! She was a creature
that you couldn’t very well think of putting up
on paper, if indeed she could ever bo got .with
one half her real beauty, upon a good piece of
canvas.
Jt tokSdbBI
fawn through the gitwa, miking me go almost
mad with tuc sight of her beautiful ankle*.
We weut home again, and I kept myself close.
1 could uot bear to sneak with any one. It wax
a new thing to me, that one’s sincerest feelings
could be thus held up to ridicule. I saw Kate
no more on that day, and she sought to have
known the reason why. But the Tact that she
did not was evidence enough to a youug mau s
conceit that she was not worthy or me.
For something more than twenty years I saw
nothing more of my Cousin Kate. She went off
to the West, aud married somebody i had nev
er heard of. But he was a respectable aud like
ly man enough, and brought some considerable
property to the partnership.
Only the last summer, und in the month ol
June, too, she came back to visit us again, tihe
said she wanted to see the old place once
more.
• What took up my attention as much as any
thing, was the "ralt of children” she had about
her. They were us thick as a swarm bf locusts,
and ten times as noisy. I confess I wasn’t
over much delighted with them, big or little.
Well, she asked me to go down into the
meadow with her. Of course I was nowise
backward, though it brought up a great many
unpleasant recollections again. We started off
together, therefore, aud soon found ourselves
under the same old clump of willow trees where
we hud sat more thau twenty years before!
"Cauyou make me another whistle?” said
Kate, looking quite sober—as I thought.
"Certainly,” 1 answered; aud began the dear
old occupation of boyhood again.
As J worked, she talked; and now she spedee
with true womanly frankness and freedom.
She told me with her own lips—they were not
os red aud fresh os they were once—how dis
appointed she bad been in her aims in life;
for, whereas she thought to have married a
person of action and showy qualities, she found
she had liccome the wife of one of the most
domestic men alive.
"1 should have had you, John,” said she:
and i thought her eye grew moist as she said
so.

that sensuous morning might make itself tbe
better t*e|t ujnm my forehead und litce. It was
delight fi J beyond description. As I said, the
morning itself was attraction enough for any
body; but when with the beautiful-eyed Aurora
you came to yoke In such a spirit of the air as
Kate was, it was piling bliss rather higher
tbaffw youug fellow like me had ever dared
calculate on. 1 verily believe that for once in
my life, I was just as happy its 1 could Ik*. 1
hadn’t u wish or a longing, out its gratification
seemed to be right beside it with me. Kate's
presence gave such a wonderful coloring to
things, and not to things only, but to my
thoughts, 1 would have liked to stop a minute
by the way und wonder where tho witchery
came from.
Ws strolled on over the soft grass, that felt
so grateful beneath the pressure of our feet
ana talked of whatever came into our heads,
Her tongue run like—-well, I won’t try to thiuk
of aoythiug with which to compare it. And as
she went skipping and tripping along, swing
ing her hat so carelessly by the green ribbous,
now placing her little hand on my shoulder for
a momentary support, and now leaving me
behind to admire the little grace of her perfect
figure, I knew very well that something or oth
er ailed me, but for my life 1 was unable to tell
what it wus.
By-and-by we came to the little brook that
crept along so slily through the grass, at whose
margin Cousin Kate stopped, just us 1 expected
she would, and gazed down upon the shifting
play of the water over the clean sand and peb
hies. She put the tip of her foot iuto the stream
und with a mimic cry drew it back again,
Then she shouted to me to come on and see.
what a fine little tide it was, washing its eddies
all along under the grassy banks, and whirling
them within the seclusion formed by the triiliug
sand-bars.
I was at her side in a moment, and then we
stood together aud enjoyed the scene. Here
aud there a chattering liobolink was rising up
out of the dewy grass, and letttng out the pent
melodies of his throat iu a rippling flood. We
litened in admiration. 1 thought, for mpself,
that something else was iu my heart besides
mere admiration thut morning.
Along the brookside we kept on, frightening
the minims out from their coverts beneath the
bank and winding iu and out us the bed of the
whimsical little stream chanced to take ua.
Keeping on we came nt jast to a clump of wil
low trees ; where the brook made a broad de
bouch, and formed one of the sunniest litte
pools tnat young fish ever exercised their tails
“There!” said I, breaking away rather
thoughtlessly from my Cousin’s side; 44 I’ll make
myself a whistle!” aud I pfcceeded to lay hoi d
of a fresh, new twig of willow, which my keen
knife-blado dismembered from tbe parent stem
in no time at all.
Cousin Kate came up now, and eat down by
the side of me, 1 declare, 1 thought—as least
a quick glance round iuto her fresh aud highly
colored face—that she was just the handsomest
creature that ever pressed the grass with her
pretty feet of a summer morning.
I went ou with making my whistle how
ever, und several times began to shave and peel
my own fingers by mistake, i nstead of the
twig of willow, bhe sut und watched me
making her cureless or sprightly comments as I
went along. Now I hammered the twig across
mv knee with the knife-handle. Now) wet It
with my mouth again, turning it over and over
between my m: Ltencd lips. Then I finally gave
the tender little stick a severe wrench, aud the
smooth bark turned round un the stalk as
•smoothly as if it had oeen greased underneath
on purpose.
“ What queer business ?” said Kate giggling.
** xcs,but,”mid 1,cutting tho uotclithrough
which the music was to go—" yes, but it don’t
seem so very queer to me, Cousin Kate. 1 sup
pose it's because I’ve made so many of them 1”
44 J don’t doubt it,” she returned.
Aud just then 1| nppl.ed the newly con
structed instrument to my lip, aud blew a low
and mono!otw strain in her cars, that sounded
like the soft whirring of a lonely frog all up
aud down the meadow. The bobolinks put iu
afresh aud tried to drown me out. An old red
breast turned up, iu the willow branch#i just
above my head, uud thought it iucumbent ou
her to defend her title to the mastery of homely
song. To all this I had no sort of objection, I
am sure. It helped on the chorus of musical
emotions that were getting a little tempestu
ous just then in my heart.
“Kate,” said I, my voice trembling somewhat,
"I have made that for you ! 1 wish you would
accept it.”
I remenber ns well as if it were only yester
day how agitated 1 felt as I extended my haud
toward her with the willow gift iu it. She
reuebed out and took it, aud, with a very sweet
sort of smile playing about her mouth, said, I
thank you.”
How my heart lieat then! It beat a regular
tattoo against my waistcoat; aud if she had
eyes to neo such things then, she could not help
seeing the throbbing of my shirt-bosom, in
which some of the willow chips and bits ot balk
had become lodged.
Immediately on touching my whistle, she
gave me a dreadfully roguish look—it seemed
to make me still more nmd with my youthful
passion—and put it to her coral lips. Oh, how
1 then wished 1 was nothing but a whistle!
and nothing but that whistle, too!
Unable to express my rising emotions—lor
they were getting along toward a crisis about
as fast as they could— I kept silent, feeling as
if 1 must choke lor it all the while. My face
grew red aud heated. I thought I would have
given anything in the world if I could but talk
just what 1 felt. But it was a vain wish, as
everybody knows; for I did not know myself
what l felt, and never could have begun to ex
press it, If 1 lmd tried. Still I was driven on
by a blind impulse to say something. And out
it came, I never pretended to know how.
"Kate,” said i, bitching up a little nearer to
her, "you won’t bo here much longer.”
“No,” said she. "An’tyou sorry?”
“It is that which makes me feel so bad.”
"Do you really feel so bad, then, about it?”
Khe gave a little ripple of a laugh, as she
asked me the question, which I didn’t like nt
all, but which J tried very hard to forgive.
"Yes, Cousin Kate,” I answered, dropping
my voice to a very tender tone; for Hove t/ouP
"Oh, that’s it, hey ?” she broke out, more
gayiy than ever. "You pretend to me that you
love me!”
“1 do, Kate, if I know my own heart, T cer
tainly do; I never have felt to allot her as I do
toward you.”
"That may be true enough. You limy never
have hud much feeling for unybody else, any
wav! ’
Homo persons might have gut provukud at
this; hut it wouldn’t do for me. I swallowed it
us well as I could, however, and thought of
what I was aiming al.
“Kuto,” said 1, just as seriously os possible,
while 1 likowiso took her hand iu mine, “let
me toll you how much I love yuu! Ul», if
you”—
“Fiddle-de-dee!” she cried out, jumping to
her feet, and giviug a good long blow thro* thu
whlntle. •’Bobolink,Spink,spunk, mink—twee-
dle-tweedlel Nonsense, John, dou’t be foolish 1”
, I protested; hut she laughed. I plead: she
laughed tbe border. I begged ber to bcliero
you are
"1 might have changed you,” she returned.
“But my husbaud will never change.
I felt a sympathy for her then, that at another
time l should in vain have attempted to fath
om.
"Fiddle,Kate!” exclaimed I, in high glee.
"Don’t you remember the words you spoke to
me twenty Years ago ? I,et me repeat them to
you now. Perhaps they’ll apply to your cuse :
•Fiddle-de-dee !’ said you to mo. ‘Bobolink,
spink, spank* spink—twedle-tweedle! Non
sense, Kate; don’t be foolish!’ ”
An d upon this I took the whistle I had just
finished, aud blew just such another blast as
she blew in my ears years before. I was un
feelingly paying her oft’in her own coin. She
looked a l>elt full of daggers at me, and I kept
on Mowing nnd laughing.
My wife is ns good a creature as ever sat
down to darn her husband’s stockings. She
has made me—I am fool enough to say it—
what 1 am; but there’s no telling what sort of
a man 1 might uot have beeu had I married my
cousin Kate. I have no doubt it was best that
1 shouldn’t.
Fearful.—On Monday night last while lit
tie Miss Carroll was dexterously proceeding
with her exercises in the cage of the leopard at
Bully’s circus, that ferocious beast, becoming
wearied of her presence, pounced upon and bit
her once or twice, causing the child to turn
her back upon the animal for a moment and
utter a slight sciearn. Tbe futher and mother
of the child were both close at hand, und at
once reduced the beast to docility. All were
highly excited, and a general disposition mani
fested to leave the seats, the very worst thing
that could he done under such circumstances.
The child was apparently in imminent danger,
and the coolness of those having charg#
of her is all that saved her from being torn to
pieces. We have no fancy for seeing children
turned into such dens. If men are fools enough
to enter the cages, why let them do so, but to
train girls to such monstrous and unnatural work,
is opposed to our taste.—Lexington, {Mo.)

Andrew Marshall In New York.
The 44 Elder” mentioned ia the subjoined pa.
ragraph, taken from the N. l r . Times of last
Monday, is of course the pastor of one of the
African churches of this city :
A PREACHER A CENTURY OLD.
It was announced in last week’s dailies that
one Elder Marshall, a gentleman 44 upwards of
a century old,” would preach on Sunday in the
Oliver^treet’Babtist church (Rev. Dr. Mtigoon’s)
Accordingly, n large congregation assembled
in that place yesterday, and the Elder appear
ed. He is a colored man 101 years of age, still
robust ond hearty, with a full-toned voice and
a manner far from disagreeable. Ills residence
is in the State of Georgia. His style of pulpit
oratory is peculiar : he uses no notes, and talks
desultorily and in conversational fashion. He
lamented that he was no educated man, in fact,
he said, lie 44 never had »a day’s learniug in his
life,” but fouml.coneolatioii lor this deprivation
ill the reflection of that Apostles themselves
were but fishermen, teut makers, and publicans,
The Elder’s hair is whitens the driven suow,
his skin is of a dark mulatto hue, his form stout,
and weinlit probably about 200 pounds, features
unmistakably African head well developed, and
voice sonorous and deep. It was a wonderful
thing to note the readiness and apparent ease
with which a man of his years sustained the
labors of the pulpit of a hot Jnly morning in a
crowded chinch. His subject was tho Divinity
of Christ. In the course of his remarks, he
declared that he felt a call to preach,nnd that
an uncle of his, a black mau, who was moved
by the same spirit, unco preached to the sable
sons of Africa in the Southern States, ami was
arrested therefor, stripped and whipped ; but
after his fJaggellation declared that he couldn’t
stop preaching till his head was off’, and so was
permitted to go on. This man, tho Eider de
clared, did more good than ever did Mr. Web
ster or Mr. Clay, and proved a faithful worker
in the Gospel field. After similar anecdotes,
intermingled with bits of personal experience
the Elder prodeeded to deliver a very fair doc
trinal sermou, which was heard with attenton.
Frankliu Pierce, through the whole of his
administration, lias been obliged to nllow
Brigham Young to remain governor of the
Territory.—Hartford Courant.
When Mr. F.llniore first appointed Brigham
the governor of Utah, we do not remember to
have seen any opposition to it in the Hartford
Courant?—-iYinio Haven Register.
A Significant Fact—It is a fact (says the
Detroit, Free Press) that three of the whig can
didates in Michigan for governor since 1843 are
now zealous supporters of Buchanan and Breck
inridge— namely, Zina Pitcher, Townsend E.
Gridley, and Stephen E. Vickery; ond it is a
further fact that the candidate for governor of
the whig and free-soil coalition in 1840 is also
a zealous supporter or Buchanan and Breckin
ridge—namely, F. J. Littlejohn. The cream of
the old whigs throughout the State have joined
themselves to that party which carries the flag
and keeps step to the music #f tho Union.
