Hammond, of Fulton, a commit tee of three from each eouiwy was appoint ed to report business for the consideration of the Convention, who reported as followj.- "Resoleed 1st. That we hereby endorse the Platform of the American Convention, lately held in .Milledgeville, and most cordially ratify the nomination of the Hon. Benjamin H.

HI* conduct, since be has taken the Presi dential Chair, in the Walker Kansas affair, hat convinced many men in Georgia that they were milled into his support in the last canvass; and what was foretold last year, by the Americans, has been fulfilled by the ronduct of the Administration. We, there fore, kindly and confidently call upsn the voters of Georgia to unite with us in the honest support of the candidate, who, in the last canvass, warned them of the evils which we now so plainly see, and who are now- firmly planted on the Georgia Platform, prepared to defend the just rights ot Geor gia as a Sovereign Southern State." “ 3d. That the Convention now proceed to nominate a candidate, for Congress from the Fourth Congressional District." The report was unanimously adopted. Dr. J. S. Hill, of Troup, then offered the following resolution: “ Resolved, That M. M. Tidwell, of Fay ette county, be and is hereby unanimously, and by acclamation, nominated as the can didate of the American Party for Congress from the Fourth Congressional District.” This resolution, on motion of Capt. Con ner, was also unanimously adopted. The • American’ of this city, from which we gather the foregoing, says ; ‘ The nomi nation of Col. Tidwell, the man who is to beat Col.

Bt n, i Secs. {From ik> fevident /’««M Failure of an Attempt to Exturt Money.— A lew days sirep as a well known citizen was viewing; n fin- at the South End, a fashionabiy dtessod lady ttccojUd bint in the following rammer : 'Good ntoruittg, Mr. ——, fine even ing, sir ’ The gentleman thought he recog nized her as a customer at his store, and im mediately replied in the usual mattner. Pret ty soon the lady Invited the gentleman to see her home, as there was a large crowd of persons in the stree*. He very politely complied, aud in a short time they arrived at a large brick house in Bedford street, where she invited him to enter. He hesitated, but at last went into tbe house, and was ushered into u plendidly furnished parlor. Iu a few minutes two well dressed young tnen rurhed into the room aud charged him vv th baring critainal connection with the lady, at the same time, drawing re volvers and demanding the sunt of ijlOOO.— He immediately seized a iarge chair, and in formed the scamps that if they moved an inch both would have to suffer tbe consequences, at the same time knocking the pistols from their hands. Tbe fellows become frightened at this move on the part of the stout, able bodied man who was standing before them, and surrendered. On presenting theta with his card, they offered him a sum of money to settle the matter. This he refused, aud after giving the fellows good advice, and cautioning them never to cross his path again, left the kouse with an idea in bis head that alt the crime is not committed in North street and the “ Black Sea. ’—Boston Herald. .1 tlosd Example.—Many yeara ago. in an obscure country school iu Massachusetts, an humble, conscientious boy was to be seen ; and it was evident to all that his mind was begin ning to act and thirst for some intellectual good. He was in search of useful and practi cal knowledge. Next we see him put fourth cut foot to settle in a remote town in the State, and pursue his fortunes there as a shoemaker, his tools being carefully sent on before him la a short time he is iu business in tbe position of a county surveyor of Litchfield county, Con being the most accomplished mathematician in that section of the State. Before he is twenty five years of age, we find him supply ing the asttonomical matter of au almanac, in New Y'ork. Next lie is admitted to the bar, a self-fitted lawyer. A’»xt he is fimnd o« tbe bench of the .Supreme court. Next be become* a member of tbe Continental Coogrc-sj. Then he is a member ot the Committee of Six to form the Declaration of Independence. He continued a member of Congress for nearly twenty years, uod was acknowledged to be one of the most ucful men and wisest council lors of the land. At length having discharged every office with a perfect ability, and honored in his sphere the name of Christian, he died regretted and loved by State and Nation.— This man was Roger Sherman.

A Mvtboiiw* stunof PrcirMsg At the l»(e conference of tbe Metbodi9t copal Church for K.uK Maine, "" ' pbpuj to tsiiuounce th* ; to their sever*! *tations and circuits, id iu very ktudly terms—upon the InterlSreBcd of ministers of tbe Gospel with political affairs. We deem the present a very Ot time for giv ing his remarks to our leaders. The political excitement which brought so many New Eng laud clergyman iuto the partisan field has pas sed away, aud ministers and layman ure look ing with calmness mid candor to the influence which "have resulted from political preaching. They lint! churches divided and distracted, pews deserted, treasuries empty, uud the hearts of the people cold and comfortless. Some‘of them, with commendable devotion to the Chris tian cause, have set about Lite work necessary tu restore the good feeling which prevailed In otln r years; aud many who hud beeu driven from i heir houses of worship, by the partisan abuse of titeir ministers, have been brought back to their public devotions, and ure again hoping for a reason of religious enjoyment.— t’erliups, at sn ii a time, both minister and peo ple will derive pleasure and profit from the gentle counsels m thu remarks above referred to. Bishop Morris said: ‘I deem it ugt unimportant or out of place to address a lew wods to you, my brethren, upon a subject which is attracting considerable attentiou ut tbe pressnt time—Dainely, us to ho tv far a mtuSUIr of the Gospel ought to take part iu I be politics of the day. When a min ister goes into bis pulpit he finds bis congre gation composed of men of difierent political parties; aud if lie publicity becomes the parti san of one side or tbe other, there will ol nec essity spriue up a coldness towards him in a part uf the congregation, which will very much diminish his confidence. 1 feel eouviuced, from wmit I have observed that the only result that can btt expected from a minister taking part in the political con tests and discussions of the day will b# to en gender strife and hard feelings in his congre gation. But soma may a=k wltelbe. we are uot citi zens like other men, und uot duties to perform as audit Most certainly we are, aud 1 trust 1 have uot proved recreant to the obligations resting upon me as a citizen although t have not, lor the 10 years that I have been in tbe ministry, ever eutered a political meeting or spent above five minutes at any election.—! have always made it a poiut to go to the polls at the most quiet time of the day, when there was likely to be tt* least excitement, to de posit my bail in an unostentatious manner, and return home. I have nevtr seen the time when I tho't I was called upon as a citizen to do more thau tliis. 1 know not how it may be with others but 1 have always fonud enough to do iu the duties of my calling. 1 am willing; to let the potsherds strive with the potsherds, but preler tor myself to attend to tbe duties devolving u- pon me us a Min ster, of Christ. I recollect an anecdote of a Methodist brot i- er who was stationed to preach the Gospel to the people in Fountain Head circuit, near the Hermitage of the late President Jacksou, in the exciting political times of his second elec tion. Party zeal, was just theu at its height, aud each party Wifiited every ooe to be ou its side. They sought out the newly arrived minister and eagerly inquired of hi m whose side he was on? ‘I atn on the side of the Lori und Fountain Head Circuit, was the reply. Which of the candidates do you intend to vote for. 1 trust I shall be found on my nees praying to God for the conversion of sinners and thenp building of Zion in Fountain Head Circuit.’— However they might question the devoted min ister, he would wisely answer that he meant to do hi- duly faithfully its a minister of Christ in Fountain Head Circuit. In conclusion, let me say, my brethren, go ye and do likewise. <>As|tla»A. point* of visitation were [lowed to the memory of Clay order was Ashland, now the rest- I of James B, Clay, ‘Democratic’ oan- for Congress in the district So lonrT' represented hjr tiis father. This is situaUu N on the south side of the main road eastward from the town, distant from the court-house about a mile and a half, aud from the road perhaps two hundred yards. The tiew house, erected on the site of the old house of Clav, is a splendid building, in the style of the old one. It is in fact, an exaggera tion of the original. The grounds and shrubbery are nearly as when they were the favorite haunt of Harry of the \V eat. The popular impression that the house is sur rounded by ash trees is incorrect. The ash is the forest tree that predominates in the native woods around; but locust trees are kings of the grove at Ashland. The fa vorite wulk of Mr. Clay is pointed cut. It leads northward towards the turnpike. On one side is a row of gigantic locusts, and the walk is bordered by tall and rich orchard grass. The clamor about the devastation of Ashland by Mr. James B. Clay is in great a humbug. 'His house is the perfection of the idea of the architect who designed the old one, and the grounds are grand and love ly as when the great man of Kentucky so laced himself in their soothing sade." ftaJCAn Albany editor thinks his property in that city would have been carried away ny the late flood had it not bren for the heavy mortgages on it.
