■ Monday morning, that Mr. Stephens w ould address his

j crowded to suffocation, and liundieds were standing out
j ,-ide, unable to get in, and clamorous for Mr. Stephens to

Since ids communication to Mr. Thomas had been pub- j
!i.-hed, it hud been said that the reason of his retirement
’ iVom th ■ e.o.vass iu this Db.tiiut, was his fear of being bea

Mr. Stephens was here iut rrupted by a deep and rnthu*
: bia-tic shout of approbation lrom the great crowd he wa?
addo-ssing. fie continued, that this Know Nothing order
j had been created, it wa- -aid, for the purpose of putting
. down dcmr.a-igue-', small men, tricksters. For him-elf he
! was no uick>ter. ‘i’lieksters never walk in open day—
'Fliev -skull; in hiding plac and he warned the people to
beware of leaders who revolted tothedaik in order to con
coct their schema.
I !; had been >ttid hv Rome who had commented upon his
letter, tuta* o! whom had had UjC holdner-s to come out
Ly then* who were bhootn.g at him in the da k, that Da
vid and ids adherents formed a f-ecrel organi'/.ation, and
that fsamnei Adams and others formed a seeiet clique for i
tl e purp-ose of .-Diking a blow lor American liberty. ‘Fits
object,taid he, was revolution, and the objected tno Know
; Nothings wa* revolution. It is to overthrow the Constitu

, etitulion rad that there should be no religious test. f ]’he
! Know Nothings knew that their object wus revolution;
| they kui w that they had taken an oatli not to suppoit any
■catholic for oiitce. ‘lliey might deny it, and explain
j away the denial by sontecas ti'tical, slippery, Know Noth-
Ii: g construe lion, but then: was a monitor wjthin, winch
told them they had taken it.
1 Mr Stephens continued for some time in an eloquent
; strain on t!.-.- tul hmity t i truth, the foundation oi sll hon
! cr m.d iutcgi ity among men: a want oi which, ns bad as
the Know Nothings cltargcd the calholics to be, eould not*
, he pref r.td against ih*m, and then introduced a beautiful
! passage of sacred history: “It was alter Judas bad L*c
! irayel Christ with a ki J --, and Fet<rhad denied him thrice,
j that our I.oid asked, what is truth?” lie called upon all
Know N< tilings, hut epee id! !y all Ministers of the Gos

| t.loth and ashes, and to go about and preach from tho pul
: pit on that text, “what ia truth!”
He here eloquently appealed to Know Nothings to burst

through it and the principles it consecrates. VV ithout it, the j

There was the abolitionism of this order in disguise. He j

It h.ul been said that tlrc foreigners who came to th:-’ ;

In the N..rth Wc.-t. And from the North West came the j

; oath iu vG ‘iatiou of the. idler, and spirit of that sacred en- j
I tertainmtut. _ ... .!
Upon tl.c exclusion from office, and disfranchisement ot j
j ‘foreign born citizens, the orator was no less emphatic and ;
j forcible iu his denunciation of this leatuie of Know Noth- ,
j iagism. Upon the social evils, the injustice and disastrous |

thus math war upon tta-ir religion, and set them apart, • ; i
account ol tlieir nativity as a UeoraJed cla-s, the speaker
was eloquent and convincing, and the repeated plaudits, I
’ whieli greeted him from life beginning to the close of his j
• address n-ing up from tlm whole mass, and from every side j
j ofthis dense assemblage, wrapt in eager, and earnest atten*
f ,;,,!■:*>•• •! how thoroughly ite had enlisted the feelings I
aud e-'.ivineed the judginJnt of his auditors. We j
i eould scarcely realize in such demonstrations tiiut there
were, in all probatahty, hundreds of Know Nothings among
| diem.
j it can scarcely bo doubted that many who went there I
| Know Nothings caing away with the scales torn from their j
i eyes, convinced ol iheTni-eiable delusions which had be- !
~ued their reason and, patriotically resolved never more I
to enter their midnight council?, and never more to bow 1
j down to rii<- molten calf, winch demagogues and bigots j
j had elected lor their worship.
j In this hurried sk tch we have not attempted even an j
: outline of the whole course of argument of Mr. ►Stephens, j
j or lo give all the strong points on which he expatiated. —
j Did nine and space permit, ii would be impossible to trims

| views he presented, or the Ulieitous illustrations by which
j he enforced them, thill less would it be pracUcabre to give
! to the reader an impression ol the earnest tone, the impas
sioned manner, and the patriotic fervor w ith which Mr.
j Ste;-hens appealed to hi- te'lovv e.nizcus to beware of the
1 mad fully of couti: u :;g in lt-i= Know Nothing # organiza
j tion. lie stood like a Frophet, warning them of the evils
j to their country, their whole country, but especially to the
! .South, that must result from the mfodomiitaDoe of Know
j Nuthingi-m. He paid a just and eloquent tribute to those
true men of the North who had so long ar.d so patriotical
ly stood by the South in her struggles with Abolitionism.
He point- and out who ii was Out had voted in Congress with
the Southern delegation, to spare the South from the Wil
mot Proviso; that badge of inferiority and degradation,
with which she was threatened—that had relieved her from
the Missouri compromise restriction, and opened Kansas
to the influx of her citizen-—and aided her in the enact
ment of the Fugitive Stave Law*. He referred by name tq
the noble Exertions of Douglass and Riehafdaon, of lili*
noi-r, to protect the Gonstitut’ionand tlie righrs oFtho South
under it, and who had sat up with him two days and two
nights without rest to secure the passage and the Kansas
Dill. He stated that these are the ;.en at the North timt
Northern Know Nothings were endeavoring to beat down
—that of all the Northern meu elected to Congress since
tiie passage of tiiat Dili, them was not one Know Nothing
who had voted for the measure—not one who was rot hos
tile to it—that of the 41 Northern men who had voted lor
j it, *2O had been defeated on account of that vote, and that
j the *2l that were left were the friends of the* South—that it
was our duty to stand by to encourage and to cheer them.
The danger to our rights was not at tho North, if we
would be firm to our friend* there, and true to “ourselves.—
We had friends in every Northern State—patriotic and true
men, who would si a-.id by us if we would stand by our
selves, andjhe true to our own principle?. There wore true
men even in Massachusetts. There were 100 guns fired
on Boston Common when the Governor recently vetoed
the bill to remove Judge Loring from office for issuing u
warrant to restore a fugitive slave to his owner. But there
was not a Know Nothing gun among them. They were
fired hy the true men of that State, who still felt the spirit
of 76 that blazed oil Banker Hill. There were true men
—national men in New Hampshire, in Connecticut, in
New York, to lowa, many in Illinois, and that our policy
was not to join the Know Nothings, who were fighting
these men,but to stand by our friends there, and soon they
would tally again,and gain strength. From 21 they vvonld
swell up to 30, h> to 100 lit Congress. They
wou'et stand by us and our rights, and with u? save the Coti
sliiutioii and save the country:

I) strict* so willed it, he was rendy to go down, to his po*
litical grave. In doing so. there was only one winding
sheet he preferred id) .ve all others to be wrapped around
him. Tnat was the Constitution of his country. Next to
that, he desired no better v. iud'ng-sIHCt lobe wrapped
around him than the principles olTh.tt loiter, and Ist* wish
ed ills epitaph to be, “Here lies one who never deceived
friend or betrayed even tin enemy. J>
Mr. Stephens beautifully compared the entrance ofthis
order from the North into the South to the entrance <>:
Satan in the term of the subtle serpent into the garden of
Eden, with a lie in h.s m* utb, calling on Eve to eat of the
fruit, tor i*s that day she should not surely ri'u.

j whieli we have been compelled topmuc away litany of its
I beauties, and iu anebi dged report to impair the sirength
jof its argu:.. uts. W e wort* forcibly reminded, while Mr.

Mr. Toombs was then called for and resporehd iu a
most eloquent and impias-ive speech and iu his happiest
manner. Jlefu’ly coincided in Mr. Stephens’ sentiments
and uttered a splendid eulogium upon the prineiph sos
American liberty, civil and religious—-upon the noble fea
ture of religious tolerance which characterize our instill*
ii ‘-is and the wise policy of inviting to our shores foreign
emigration.

Democratic Meeting in Muscogee.
We bespeak for the resolutions ofthis meeting, the se
rious consideration of every Democrat w ho rcals our pa
per. They me worthy of their draughtsman, Judge
Iverson, find the uns imh and high-toiled policy whieli
they comm.-r.il is worthy of the character of ihc par y.
It was with and. p r. gret that we learn that certain gentle
men, once favorably known as Democrats in Columbus,!
aft* r withdrawing iruui the ranks of old fr:cnds,
s'iou!*d h ave clri'm. and ;i participation in tho councils ul n
party to which they lire! ma le themselves al ens mul
enemies. Il there is nothing in the Democratic senti
ment — nothing in its cardinal principles that will forco us
to regard Know Nothingism not only as incongruous,
but irreconcilable with the while scope and essence of
Democracy, then do we confess that we have mistaken
the pew that for so long a time we have occupied most
devoutly. The Muscogee meeting would not have been
such n meeting of tho Democratic party, had it allowed
this commingling of adverse elements, us would have
| had a biudingauthority upon us. For some who advocated
in that assemblage the* policy of a fusion of K. Nothings
wish Democrats, we entertain the most profound respect
and regard. I* has oeen ap! cash re and pride heretofore
to act with them, and we have been so confiding in their
patriotism as t believe tiny could hardly do wrong or
: mistake the right. Hut when they call on us to b licvo
j that a n:ni *na! organ!/.iUn, loitered and spied upon, :s
1 the Know Nothings arc, bound by awful oaths to abide
| by what the majority shall decide, as we hear the Order j
is—we say, when we are importuned by these friends to j
! bv'i ve that this new party can possibly aid us on the!
I K'.av-.ry we must demur. So far horn it, s! a; very !
• (O-gaii /.iii >si is the great stumbling block ja our way at j
■ tiiis v,-rv hour to a Complete fusion of ail o'.lkt parties i
in < 1-orgi.i for c.ir c rnmon defence. The Know Noth* i
i tugs cannot, if tin y would, pledge an unconditional blip*
! port to our cause, their cause, the cause of the South, to j
! !mg as there is l.oiu rin ns-, n ands > long as an oath is a
i tie that binds a gentleman. This is too plain to argue
j about. \\Y say all t! i-; upon the postulate that it chain of
[ imereommurtfevion and obligation holds all the Lodges
i together, and if ii be a fact that he will support the can*
’ didate of a majority of his party. If this is all true, how
! plain, iioiv inevitaido is the inference, that a Sjuthrrn
: Know Nothing can do Nothing in aid of his brethren
j here, who are fighting Mr life and death a majority of his ‘
| party to which he is held by hooks of steel. It is too |
• plain an implication to all \v any one to mistake.
1 As dcsir..b!o as ihc union of all true hearts in our State j
j really is at this critical juncture, we must think our friend* j
! in Muscogee did right in rejecting in a pererntory man- i
j ikt, all connection with so hurtful an incumbrance as K. j
Nothing help. We have some weeks ago taken open j
I ground in favor of the most important suggestions of the |
Muscogee resolutions, and we will take an early opportu- I
| liity next week of expressing ourselves more fully. —At - j

Meeting in Muscogoo-
We find in the Columbus Tim-s & Sentinel of flit* j
25rii inst., the proceedings of meeting held in the city ;
of Columbus, fur the purpose of appointing delegate to !

11 solutions passed by the meeting, breathe the right soil* - ;
ii—maintain the doctrims and princplts always ndvoca- j
toil hy the Lb-pnblican Party, and condemn in the
: strongest manner, the Dark Lantern Party. A few of I
the disciples of the New Order attempted to rnsinu ile j
tii* ni'dves into the mee ing, and tosav the seeds of dis- j
s.T.sion and discord , but tiny s*on disclosed their iusidu- |
I uu- intentions, and took French leave, in short ord* tv
1 he minority r< port, which was drafted Ky a Know Noth
ing, was very unceremoniously disposed of, receiving on

1 in that county to < rganlz • a great Southern Party to be
composed °f **Whigs, Democrats, Know Nothings,
i Temperance nu n, and the opponents of vither,” to re
j hist the progress of Northern aggression. However laud-
I able th 2 purposes <*f the originators ol'this scheme may

j juncture. Besides, the impracticability of tho project,
i the attempt will only have the effect of strengthening the
j Know Nothing party, and of dividing and weakening
i their adversaries, and thereby giving the Know Nothings
the easier victory. It appears useless to ns to disguise
1 Fact, that opposition to Know Not Ymgism is the issue

Jamoß M. Smith, Esq.
Tlie Congressional Deiriocruic Conveutiou for this
disiripc have conferred the nomination upon Milton Smith
E-q., <■( Upson, nnd in placing his name nt th ) head of
our columns, we in iy safely challenge the sharpest scru
tiny both as to his character and his capacities. M idi
om influential friends, and without tho advantages of
wealth, he fttarlc* 1 life, the arm of a poor man who gain
ed h’s bread by the* daily labor of his hands. The po
p'e \\ii nut think the 1 sos him because he is a self
made man, and the architect of his own fortunes, li is *
true he is no brawling demagogue who has noisily made
himself known to the public,jmr does ho enjoy that gen
eral notoriety which windy pretension usually secures for
itself. Ho has been content to come before the people
oniy when he w *>• called fur, and has never sought to
('tree himself into the foreground. But, for all that, he
has steadily though modestly field on his way and, at
the time we write, occupies a front rank among the mem
bers of the bar, and is noted among all who know him as
a man ofUnblemished reputation, of generous nature, and
ot’ the first order of abilities. Born upon our own soil, and
educated among .ur o-vn people, he has no sympathies
which they do not share and no purposes which they can
not applaud. A thorough going Democrat, an unoom
promising enemy to Northern aggression, an open and
manly opponent to all intolerance, whether civil or rdig
, ious, he has every claim upou the support of the Demo.-
’ era tic Party.

Tit ? n ?xt is tlie card of Mi *!n ?DC. Kerr. It is ss fol
low.-:
Mr. Editor—Having been announced as a candidate
for the office of City Attorney at tlie approaching election
to be. held in this city, it is due to my ft lends t*> stale briefly
the reason w hich now impels me to request you to with
draw* my name.
From what transpired at the last October electron, as
well as at the recent election, iti the present month, and in
the intervening p *riud, it ta manifest that the freedom of
elections is far the present a* uu end in this city, arid that
naturalized citizens, especially, cannot present ihemsclvs
at the polls for the purpose ol cxeieMng the right of s’rif
; rage, except at the hazard of their fives, or at lea-t of de
i libcrato arid unmerited personal insult. Indeed, native j
! horn citizens arc not exempt from humiliating insults and (
; threats oi vioituiee.
In such a state of things, it it evident that a candidate j
j running in opposition to one nominated by a secret society !
j which has adopted the measure of surrounding v\r polls j
I with armed or desperate men, to iutimidure and deter oth- j
j cr-from approaching, and to drive away by violence Mich j
v they do not cit >o.-e to permit to vole, can only hope to {
obtain his rights by preparing to meet force by force
This I have no disposition to do. Ido not desire, office
sufficiently to run such rfik of involving either my friend”
or opponents in personal strt‘o and bloodshed, i prefer
withdrawing entirely from tho contest. 1 hop** for the hon
or of onr count!y that tho sober sense of the people may
speedi'y restore a period more auspicious for a fair ex
preseion of the public preference.
Respectfully,
M. C. KERR.
