Massachusetts Know Nothing State Council.
Boston, June 28, 1855. j
Tim Know* Nothing State Council met at 1 o’clock i*. m. I
to-day. A preliminary meeting was held la-t night, which J
was attended by about one hundred persons, including Sen
ator Wilson, Governor Gardiner, N . I*. Banks, A. BurJin- j
game, and several other members of Congress ‘l’o the j
meeting vvas suomitted an Address, which nuts the party i
on the platform of the restoration of the Missouri Com- 1
promise—still calling it tire American party, and calling j
lor a Mass Convention, to be held in some central place.- !
Somearo in favor of calling the new party the American !
Republican. One or two meu from Boston dissented from
the doctrines of the address. There is some opposition to |
throwing off the secresy and other machinery ol t be party, j
Many ol the leading politicians of the State are now ;
here.
The Know Nothings held a ratification meeting this ev- 1
err.ng with open doota.
Dr. B. 11. West presided. ‘I ’ho following preamble and i
resolutions were unanimously adopted:
Whereas, the National Council recently assembled in j
Philadelphia, adopted as a part of us platform certain res* j
elutions upon the subject of slavery, which are utterly re
pugnant to the sentiments oi the American party in Mas
efteMusetts, ami subversive of the plainest principles of jus*
lice; and wnoreas, the delegates in that body from this
Star-’ Council* after endeavoring in vain to procure, from
the National Council an expression of views that should be
just to the seuliinentsoi Massachusetts and the bee States,
vviUiojjJLbeing dishonorable to any portion of the Union,
were defeated in their purpose by the preponderance in that
body of sectional I. ehng> and interests, and as a testimony
ol their fidelity to the sentiments of their constituents,with
drew from the National Council; and refilled to participate
urfher in its proceeding?: Therefore
Resolved, That this State Council heartily approves the
course of its delegates, and emphatically protests against
that action of the National Council which made such
course fiectessary. -
About three hundred delegates wore present at the day
minting of'the Cun veation. John W. Foster presided.—
An address to the Country was adopted, setting forth a
platform of principles similar to the minority report in
Philadelphia, and a series of resolutions of a like tenor
were passed, The Convention adopted the name of Ame
rican party of Mas achusoits, and invited all persons in the
tree States, of whatever political creed, to join them.
Speeches were made by Governor Gardiner, Henry Wil
son and others. The Convention and ratilicatfon meeting
were generally harmonious and enthusiastic. A Commit
tee of one from each county, to further the objects of the
Convention, was appointed. A ratification meeting of the
principles of the party will be held in Norfolk county to
morrow.

We deeply regret to announce Isays the Camden Jour

The State Council.
The. State Council of the American Party met, on the
call of the President, in this city, on Wednesday last, over
200 delegates being present, to take into consideration the
Platform of Principles recently adopted by the National
American Party, and to place in nomination a candidate
lor Governor, to be supported by the American Party of j
Georgia, at the ensuing election. On the first day a com- j
mittce df 16 was appointed to prepare business for the ac- ‘
lion of the Council, which committee very elaborately dis
cussed the subject, and presented their repo t on Thursday
morning, when, after an eloquent and full discussion, in
which many gentlemen participated, a Platform of Princi
ples was considered, section by section, and adopted.— j
The main question or difference on the Platform as passed, j
was on the tenth section, which provided for the nomina
tion of a candidate at ihis session. This being carried by a
very decided vote of two-thirds or more of the body, the
adoption of the whole platform was finally made unanimous.
On proceeding to carry out the 10 soct' n, the following
gentlemen were placed iirihomioation for the office of Gov
ernor: Hon. E. A. Nisbet, Dr. H. V. .Miller, Col. Hines
Holt, Washington Poe, Esq., Hon. James Johnson, Hon.
R. V. Hardeman, B. H. Overby, Esq , Maj. J. II Howard =
and Hon. C. J. Jenkins. Judge Nisbet and Dr. .Miller, be
ing present, positively declined the honor, from considera
tions of a private nature which were too imperative to ad
init ofits acceptance. The Council then proceeded to the
ballot which resulted as follows:
Ist Ballot: lion. Garnett Andrews 97, 2d Ballot: 1*27
Hon. W. Poe 36, 33
Hon. R. V. Hardeman 19, 4

■ When we saw it announced that Wilson, Gardner &, Cos.,
: voted for him in preference to Barker, a Silver Grey, con

Incident in the History of North Carolina.
j At the late Commencement ot the University of Noith j
! Carolina an address before tiie Literary Societies was Je- ;
| lrverod lv fi’eorge Davis, of Wilmington. His ihr-jut- was ’
! “ I he Early Times and Men of Lower Cape Fear.” Tlie
I Speaker recited, during the course of his oration, the tol- j
I lowing thrilling and ever memorable incident in the history j
lof the old North State. In speaking ol the portion of j
| North Carolina in the great struggle forAmerican [freedom, •
i he -aid:
1 “In the liret of the year 1766, the sloop of war Dilli- j
| genre arrived in the Tape Fear, bringing the Stamps. Now j
look whs! shall happen: She tloats as gaily up the river i
| as though she came on an errand of grace, with Kails all j
foet, and the cross ot St. George flaunting apeak. Iter can- |
non iroWning upon the rebellious little town of Brunswick, i
!os she yawns to her anchor. People ol Cape Fear, the i
! i-*ue is before you! Tne paw ot the Lion i* on your heads
|—the terrible lion of England! Will you crouch submis- ;
I sively, or redeem the honor that was pledged for you? You j
[ have spoken brave words about the rights of the people— j
| have ye act 9as brave! Ah’ gentlemen,there were men in ‘
I North Carolina in those days.
! Scarcely had the stamp ship crossed the bar, when Col. :
j Waddell was watching her from the shore. He sent a j
| messenger to Wilmington to his triend (’ol. Ashe. As she •
rounded to her anchor, opposite tlie custom house at Bums* ;
wick, they appeared upon the shore, with two companies j
of friends and gallant yeomen at their backs. Beware, I
John Asffe!—Hufi[h Waddell, take heed! Consider well,!
bravo the perilous issue you dare! Remembi-r i
I that armed resistance to the King’s authority is treason ! j
In his palace, at Wilmington, the “Wolf of Carolina” is !
| already chafing against you; and know you not that yon- ;
[ der, across the water, England -till keeps the Tower, the
I Traitor's Gate, the scaffold and the axel Full well they I
| kuew; hut
They have set their livvs upon a ca l -!,
And now must stand the hazard ol the die,
| By threats of violence they intimidated the commander j
! ol the sloop, and he promises not to land his Flumps. They j
| -eizo the vea-ol’a boat and hoisting a must and ring, mount ;
tit upon a cart and march in triumph to Wilmington. Up- j
jon their arrival the town is illuminated. Next day, with i
! Col. Ashe, at their head, the people go iu crowds to the !
Governor's house, and demand *>! him James Houston, the j
stamp master. Upon his refusal to deliver him up forth*
j with, they set about to burn his home above his head. Teri
rified,the Governor at length complies, and Houston is
conducted to the market house, where, in the presence ol j
| the assembled people, he is made to take the solemn oath j
j never to execute the duties of his cilice. Three glad hur* i
| rahs ling through the old market house,and the stamp act j
falls still-born in North Carolina. (Cheers.) And this was i
more than ten years before the Declaration ol Jndeperid- j
dice, nine before the Battle of Lexington, and nearly eight I
before the Boston Tea Baity. Iho destruction of the tea j
was done in tjie night by men in disguise, and history bla* j
/ons it, and New England boasts ot it, una the lame ot it j
is world-wide. But this other act, more, gallant and dar j
ing, done in the open day by well kno*n men, with, arms !
in their hands and under the King's flag—who remembers |
or tel .sos it? When will hi-tory do justice to North Car
olina? Never, till some faithful and loving son of her own j
shall gird his loins to tho task with unwearried industry j
and unflinching devotion to the honor of his dear old [
mother. _

Tallapoosa Cos., Ala., Jan. 2, 1852.
De ar Sir:-I send you this to certify to you that your ex
tract of Ye.low Dock and Sarsaparilla has performed one ot
the most wonderful cures on me that hasevtr been effected on
1 have been affl*c:ed for forty yeas with eruptions on my
legs aud feet; in 1848 they got so bad that I iad to go on
crutches, and lu 1849 1 had one leg amputated above the knee.
In about nine mouths after my other leg,broke out in large
eating and running sores from my knee to my foot, and dis
charged a great deal of offensive matter. My groin also broke
out iu large biles, which discharged much offensive matter,and
at tne same time my left hand broke out in large running sore.*
nearly to my elbow.
The misery that * have suffered for the last two years I can
not describe to jou. 1 was in such agony that I never rested
day or night.
In October last my son brought me one of your bottle wrap
pers; 1 read it, and found record of .orne woude./ui cures
performed by your “Extract of Yellow Dock and .Sarsaparilla”
l sent and got two bottles of it. ami commenced taking it. In
two weeks, to my great astonishment, iny sorec ell became eu
i-y,and I could sleep all night, a thing I had not done lor twa
lean*’ When I had taken six bottles, my tores had nearly
healed. My sores got well as if by enchantment. 1 have uow
used in all eight bottles oi your “Extract of Yeflow Dock and
Sarsaparilla,” and now consider myself well.
1 ent eat all of the afficltedno try ihi* medic ine, for I believe
it will cure any known disease lu the world. Lay aside all
prejudice, and Just try it, and proclaim {its great wonh to
suffering mankind and entreat them to tuke it, ior it wiilcure
them.
My case is well known in a large portion of South rarolina,
Georgia and Aiabtma, and il any should doubt the above
cure,! invite them to Vail ok me, and 1 will show them the
scars, i can be found in Tallapoosa County Alabama, oue
mile from Stoe’a Ferry.
