Democratic Association, Our Hall has been the scene of several large and enthusiastic meetings during the past week, notwithstanding the ab sr’iee of a considerable portion of our population uponcrandsof business,health ;id pleasure. On Tuesday evening af !ji supper the association assembled on masse in front of the Washington Hall, aid escorted the Chatham delegation who Id arrived that evening from Savannah, d.nvn to the Association Room, where after the meeting was organized and three cheers given for old Chatham which was returned by our friends from Savannah, \v:tli three for democratic Bibb. The association was gratified with an eloquent, Inspiring, and patriotic address from each of the following gentlemen. Mr Loyd, Judge D’Lyon and Mr. Griffin, which ware received with the most enthusiastic v.'plause by the audience. The meeting ben adjourned, and attended our Chat man friends back to their lodgings and dispersed after giving throe hearty cheers more for the gallant democracy of Old I 'lmtham. The occasion was celebrated y the firing of cannon and the inspiring influence of a fine Band of music. On the return of the delegates from the Springs last Friday evening, they were met by the association at die Monroe .ib.il Road depot, and escorted totheHo i . and after refreshments, to the Dcmo nitic Hall. Messrs D’Lyon, Griffin and Loyd, at the invitation of the President, ad die repeated calls of the meeting, n nmn addressed the assembled democracy in eloquent, truthful, and soul-stirring unguage, which was responded to in the most enthusiastic manner After the meeting was adjourned, the association ’ gain accompanied our friends to their quarters, and took leave of th"m after ex changing a thousand good wishes and congratulations. May we often have such re-unions with mir democratic brethren of die seaboard. On Saturday evening the association eras again called together, to make ar rangements for the approaching demo cratic mass convention. After the meeting was organized, and the business °i the evening transacted, Samuel M. Strong and David Clopton, Esq’s were called out in succession, and responded 111 a most eloquent and inspiring manner. )' r tn’ rrntic candidate in'tiie 7ih District. Uol.

It is to 'hud at the Drug store of Mr. James Bailey. Purchase soon. 'l'lie Messenger has at length waked up to the startling fact that the democracy and Texas are not yet dead ; and in a la bored article endeavors to connect togeth er Texas and disunion. The Messenger in bitterly abusive language denounces the leaders of the nullification party of ’32 and ’3 as parasites of John C. Cal houn. Now if these men were base and degraded parasites to Mr. Calhoun or any other man, let us inquire who they were, besides these singled out by the Messenger. Were they not John Mc- Pherson Berrien, who said in this Court house that “ the tariff was as injurious to the cotton planter as a storm which de stroyed half his crop,” and who made th intemperate declaration “ that those who did not embrace the doctrine of nullifica tion would have to emigrate from the State.” W. Crosby Dawson, “ who did not enjoy the luxury of a pine cradle, but j was rocked in a gum.” T. Butler King who said that Henry Clay tried to bribe the northern manufacturers with a SSO, 000,000 U. S. Bank. That Henry Clay, leagued with the Bank and the Tariff would convert this union into an unmit igated despotism or break it into frag ments. Eugenius A. Nisbet, who said “we shall in vain expect the respect due to consistent politicians, if we become the advocates of a National Bank.”— Geo. W. Crawford,the present whig Gov ernor of this State, Clias. J. Jenkins, whig elector of the Bth dist. Indeed all the ! leaders of the present whig party were prominent advocates of nullification.— Among the most distinguished and zeal l.ous advocates of nullification in this State ; were Judge Christopher B. Strong, the whig elector of this dist., and Washing ton Poe, their chosen candidate for Congress. “ These, these are the leaders of the party in. the language of the Mes senger, “who in the days of Nullification scoffed and scorned and spat upon the Union men of that day, and derided them as submissionists and soap-tails; and who would, if they corn'd) have scourged them with rods of iron and whips of scorpions into subordination.'"’ What will onr renders say when’ they 1 are told the undeniable fact, that the | Georgia Journal, the Recorder, the Co lumbus Enquirer, (and among the fore most was the Georgia Messenger!) were all strong nullification papers. The Messenger proposes several queries in reference to this matter, of which vve can only say in their own language, that “When such men can ask such ques-; tions, Ih* v certainly must have lost nil! recollection of the past or lie endowed ! with the impudence of the devil.” Skies Bright. From Upson, Harris, mid the adjoin ■ ilife counties, we have the most cheering j intelligence. -The honest men of the whig party are coming out of Babylon. | 'The friends of the country and of the 1 south, are throwing off old Ilarry and his ! heresies, and rallying to the standard of : young Hickory and Texas. Some of the : oldest and most re-pectablecitizensof these j counties who have hitherto voted with the whig party, have left them, being un willing longer to act with a party who .are hostile to the best interests of the south. Our friends are in high spirits throughout the district. Chappell will lead the anti-Texas whig candidate 15- 00 votes. South Carolina expelled from the Union, We understand that one of the whig oiators at Clinton, two weeks since, de clared himself in favor of expelling South Carolina from the Union. The gentle man cannot claim the merit of originali ty for this opinion; Adams, Slade, Birney and Giddings, have long since expressed similar views, and if the gen tleman wishes to be considered the mov ing spirit and anew leader of whiggery, he must strike upon anew sensation. But ifhc only nspirv.s to be an bumble and Sl| l J_ missive follower in the wake of the north ern leaders, then is lie on the right track. Renunciation of Whigery. it is impossible for ns to keep pace with the continued renunciations of whigery which we meet on every hand- We scarcely open a paper from any sec tion of the country, but we find a long list of names taking leave of the great whig party. We publish in to-day’s pa per, a short letter from Judge l’ratt, of New York, in which lie says, that, “ 1 have since 1840, in conjunction with a liout two hundred thousand other citizens altered my mind as to men and mea sures, since that time.” Whigery is on its last legs, and will topple down in No vember next, never to rise again. Jir. Bcrrier. This political weathercock seems to delight in exhibiting to the world the extent, variety and completeness ol his political tergiversation. He now con temptuously derides free trade and nulli fication, with the cool effrontery ol a man who had not grown grey in die advoca cy of both. As the chairman of a com ii fit tec of the free trade invention os- sembled in Philadelphia in IS3I, he used the following powerful and eloquent language, in advocating the very doctrine he now contemns as illusory and dema gogical. “ We arc the advocates of free trade. The argument which sustains it rests upon a proposition which may not be de nied. It is the unquestionable right of every individual toapply his labor tfccapi tal in the mode which he may conceive best calculated to promote his own inter est. It is to the interest of the public that ho should so apply it. He understands better .ban it can be understood by the government, what will conduce to his own benefit; and since the majority of individuals will, if properly protected, be disposed to follow their interests, such an application of their industry and capi tal must produce in the result, the great est amount of public good. Let it be re membered that the question relates ex clusively to the application of capital.— It cannot be generated by an act of leg islation. ***** Laws, which protect by bounty any peculiar species o 4 labor, cannot be said to encourage American industry that is directed to various ob jects. These laws favor only a single class, and since the bounty is not suppli ed by the government, but taken from the pocket of the individual, the protec tion which is given to one species of la bor, is so given at the expense of every other.” Now we ask the particular attention to the following extract, fromarecent speech at the Boston Clay Club : “Depend upon foreign supply! Sir, we should have, if their doctrine prevail ed, no means of purchasing that supply. This is the inevitable result of the argu ment of the demagogue which we have heard day after day, in Congress, and which is falsely designated by the title of friendship to the whole people and hos tility to taxation of the citizens ! How is it, then, that a great people like ours should be vascillating|betvveen free trade and protection to the domestic industry jol the country? (Cheers.) Free trade ! | A phantom which can never be grasped —a fallacy which is uttered but to de ceive ! (Great applause.) A tiling prac | ticallv for the advantage of foreign na tions—ruinous to, if I may so term it, our own holy, brotherhood. (Loud j Cheers.) Was ever a man so completely con j victcd of demagoguism and wilful decep tion before in the long annals of party trickery and tergiversation ? Judgs Berrien asks, “ how is it, that a great people like ours, should be vascilla ting between free trade and protection,” &c. &c. In the already classic lan guage of the Messenger, we answer— “ Such men to ask such questions, must have lost all recollection of the past, or be endowed with the impudence of the devil.” We commend the following extract from the Boston Liberator, a federal abo , iition print, as an evidence of the feeling of that party toward the democratic nonr inations. This is not by any means, the J first or only specimen of that feeling which goes to'show that the abolitionists of the north are opposed in masse, to the election of the democratic candidates, and that they are rallying to a man upon the tariff and anti-Texas candidates.— Let the people of the south ponder well upon these things : “ The pirate flag of slavery is now the democratic banner. The democratic par ty is wholly enlisted on the side of south ern oppression and cruelty; if has no northern phase. Men who can support it, under such circumstances, are the ene mies of God and the human race. .It is covered all over with uncleanness and blood. It has stolen the sacred names of liberty and democracy, in the same spirit and with the same intent that Sa tan assumes the garb of an angel of light. A more profligate and desperate party never existed on earth. We use strong terms, but they are called for by a righte ous moral indignation in view of facts as indisputable as they are appalling.” And, again, here is the language of a whig paper in Rhode Island : From the Hhodt Island Transcript, whig paper. “Every colored citizen, therefore, in the state and Union, has the greatest pos sible interest in securing the election of Henry Ciay. MR. (’LAY IS THE ONLY MAN WHO HAS PLEDG El) HIMSELF OPENLY ANI) 1 CANDIDLY TO SUPPORT THEM IN THEIR JUST ANI) EQUITA BLE RIGHTS. HENRY CLAY WILL. THEREFORE, RECEIVE SEVEN HUNDRED VOTES FRO.M THE COLORED CITIZENS OF RHODE ISLAND.” “ We do not pretend to sav, nor do we believe, that Mr. Clay is an Abolitionist, or that he ever will be. But we ask, is that man the right candidate for south ern men to vote for, around whose name is sou nd rally ingal 1 the northern ahol it ion ists and every free negro? If cur son th em whig friends will shut their eyes to the importance of the Texas question, these men, at least, appear to see it; and as their most anxious wish day and night is to carry out their reckless views on the subject of slaverj, they oppose annexa tion, which they think would strengthen the south aud the better enable her to de fend her institutions. Look to it in time! Advice to a Mother.—A child is born. Now take the germ and moke it a bud of moral beauty. Let the dews ot knowledge, and the light of virtue, wake it in the richest fragance and purest hues —and above all, see that you keep iis face and frock clean. We have been favored with the follow ing extract of a letter from a strong whig of this State, and now in Vermont, to a staunch whig in this place. This ex tract will, vve think, convince any ingen uous mind of the position in the pending contest es that ‘Marge and respectable portion of the American people” which Mr. Clay has labored so strenuously to conciliate. “In the political world things look bright for Clay although Folk will tret a larger vote than we anticipated He will get New Hampshire and Maine; and if Mr. Wright consents to be the Democratic candidate for Governor, Folk will get New York. The annexation question is making strange results. The ah li tion fools are all opposed to annexation , and are very active. This has caused many of our friends to become strong annexation men.'' The subjoined extract of a letter to the editor from a gentleman at the Indian Springs will doubtless be read with inter est by our patrons. In the opinion en tertained by the writer of the polite and courteous Bryan AV. Collier, Esq. vve most cordially acquiesce. With Mr. Collier vve are personally acquainted; having ourself partaken of his generous hospitality; and can assure our friends that should they determine to visit the Springs this summer, no efforts vvill.be spared on the part of Mr. Collier and his amiable and excellent lady (whom all agree in commending for her kind atten tion to her guests) to promote the comfort of their visitors. We sincerely hope this gentleman will meet with the success to i which his enterprise and energy so cmin- I ently entitle him: “ 1 reached this spot on Friday after noon last after many and troublesome mishaps—disappointments growing out of the miserable stage arrangements, bad roads, etc.—these call for improvement, and 1 do hope another season may not find them without a change for the better. 1 however soon forgot the little annoyan ! ces after my arrival, meeting with so ma | ny agreeable things in the way of “ home comforts,” company, and good water.— j “Mine host” is a polite, agreeable, and I accommodating gentleman, who well knows the very essence of catering to the tastes of connoisseurs in the way of vi ands and women, llis house is most j pleasantly situated as regards health, ; comfort, and amusement. Ido not hovv | ever intend giving any thing like a par ticular description of its localities, com j forts, or the rich scenery with which the vicinity abounds—these subjects having grown trite—but will remark cn passent, these springs at the present writing pos sess every thing necessary to attract the | modern Rrommell, invalid, or epicurian. i There are now about one hundred and i fifty persons bore, representing almost every portion of our own, and some of | the adjoining States. I rarely, as you know, indulge in this way in personali -1 ties, but should I yield to rny feelings on this occasion, and speak of the divinity of these shades, I doubt not it would be ex cused. Miss H. with whom I doubt not I you are acquainted, as I understood she occasionally visits your little city, is here, : the “bright particular star” of every eve ning. I met with her a few days since ac cidentally, and so pleased with her dis tinguished manners have I been, that I scarcely knew when in her presence whether I held converse with one of earth’s creation, or one of those stray an gels, of whom vve sometimes read, sent i here to awaken in man through his ad j miration of her, a spirit of devotion to his | God. Whether I look to her beauty of j person, accomplishment of manner, or i strength and cultivation of intellect, to [ say "nothing of that inexhaustible foun tain of pure, noble, and I had almost said j platonic, (when looking only to the vig or and purity of her mind, but this is not admissible) love, winch nought is neces sary to draw forth in all the wildness and impetuosity of a nature thus ardent, but congeniality of feeling and sentiment.— I am alike lost in astonishment that she should so long have withstood the at tacks of Cupid, and kept until now the citadel “ unmanned though lam well aware she is no novice in the arts of de fence. Were 1 like many around me, unmarried, many hours could not elapse ere I had made so vigorous an attack that she would have more than woman’s pow er did her outposts avail her much.— There are also many others here worthy of admiration, married and single, among whom are many from your city. Take them all together, they form a galaxy of beauty rarely met with at the watering places of Georgia.” Natveism. The Boston Daily Advertiser, one of the purest as well ns one of the wisest journals of this country, utters the fol lowing sound opinions touching Associ ations of native Americans: “Native Americans. —We are sorry to see measures adopted in any part of this State lor establishing a Native American Association. There can be no distinc tion made between privileges of native and adopted citizens, without the utmost hazard of serious consequences to the harmony and good order of the commu nity. The forming of associations ofthe character proposed must necessarily lead to the formation of associations to coun teract their influence, and the consequen ces of the hostility thus produced, must ultimately be violations of the constitu tion and laws, and very likely disturban ces of the public peace. If the natural ization laws are unwise let those who think so use their influence to have them amended, hut let every good citizen be vvurq how he attempts, by associations with o particular class, to de- prive his fellow citizens or any class, of political or any other rights which they have lawfully acquired. We hope that I the project of such an association which has been suggested in a neighboring town, will not be persevered in.” From the Montgomery Advertiser. Tariff Justice. Those who advocate protective tariffs profess to do so, because the industry of the country ought to lie protected from foreign pauper labor. They say too, that vve must have protective duties because foreign countries have pro'ertive duties, and that it is our duty to retaliate, until they lower their duties, &e. dec. These reasons, which are gravely assigned, are but mere empty pretences, without a shadow of foundation. The maimer in which the taxes are laid is sufficient to proveto any man of sense, that the only industry that they care for is that of the wealthy capitalist who invests his mo ney in northern manufactories. The conduct of the late U. States whig Sen ate too, shows conclusively, that recipro city is a mere excuse to lay taxes, that they do not want low taxes .at all, and will never reduce the present odious, op pressive, black tariff, until the people compel them. They seem to think that Congress was established lor no other purpose than to pass laws for the benefit of northern capitalists. As for any idea of protecting the agricultural interests of the country, that appears never to have entered Into their heads. Asa proof of this vve have only to cite their course on the treaty with the German Union. Mr. Wheaton, after several yeais trying, got the government of the German Union to agree to admit cotton, rice and tobacco at a very reduced tax compared with the present tariff in that country, provided our government would reduce the tariff upon some goods of German manufac ture. What did our whig senate do?— Laid it on the table. The articles to lie admitted at reduced tariff rate would com pete with northern manufactured goods and therefore they refused to ratify the treaty. So ou rfarmers and planters, who raise cotton, rice and tobacco are to un derstand that when the whigs talk of protecting American industry, they mean northern manufactured goods and not , southern agricultural produce. They care nothing for the southern cotton, to bacco or lice—their patriotism can only extend to the northern states and north ern manufactures, for there the heavy votes are to be cast, and Presidential can didates will always court the strongest interest. As for the weak who cares for them? Extract of a letter from a correspon dent of the Charleston Mercury, dated Hot Springs, Va. July 13. “With regard to the assertion that high duties make low prices, you must understand it to mean low prices for a gricultura! products. When the act of ’42 vvns passed, Abbott Laurence said that it was worth to him sloo.ooo—he lias actually roftlisedin the twelve months just expired, over $200,000. Several large boats recently arrived in N. York from Albany nominally with wool. It turned out that the cargo of each was woollen goods from Canada. The present is indeed the golden harvest for the tariffifes. The influence in behalf of their interest is rapidly extending, and let me tell you that there is no hope for the south, but in resistance, in utter dis card of the consequences. If S. Caro lina at the ensuing session does not take this matter up, and commence her pre parations for that opposition which will certainly and quickly lead to the re-es tablishment of ner rights, or an open rup ture vvitli the Federal Government, she will be inevitably degraded and ruined.— Whilst the profits of the manufacturers are no where less than 30 per cent, and the tariff with its kindred measures can be used as apolitical engine to advance and protect one great branch of northern industry, and permanently to secure northern supremacy in the federal coun cils, it is madness to suppose that the plunderers of the south will peaceably withdraw their hands from our pockets. It is openly said here that the democrats of New York are not doing their duty.— Though largely in the ascendant, they cannot or wil) not be roused to action. The defeat of their favorite son, and that effected too as they (erroneously) believe by southern influence, has evidently par alized the efforts of the party, many of whom will not go to the polls. For this reason, and the thorough organization of the whigs, there is some ground for the belief that that great slate will be lost to us. Pennsylvania* however, may be re lied upon—also Maine, New Hampshire, and probably New Jersey.” A Turkish Trap. —The Marchio ness of Londonderry was inspecting die palace of the Sultan, and had arrived at the extremity of a magnificent l oom 150 feet long, with a long line of open lat ticies to the water. “While I was shiv ering with cold,” says she, “and gazing on the Asiatic shore and tho delicious view, (which, even in the bleak and drea ry month cf November, is lovely,) a large square trap-door in the floor was raised, and I heard a voice say, ‘Voila hi mcr, Inadmne!’ Hardly believing niv senses, I advanced, and truly, the deep, green sea flowed under the splendid eastern gallery. A shudder came over me as 1 thought how readily that trapdoor might close over its victims, and my blood ran cold while my imagination made the mute inquiry, who can tell ou whom that barrier "has closed ? I recalled the lines, ‘•When wearied of these fleeting l charms and me, Here yawns tho sack, and yonder rolls the sea,” and I turned away and gladly obeyed the summons to proceed.” Y\ onoerful.— One of the most unac countable things is, that 6/acA.'-bcrries should be red when ‘hey are green ’ Professional Dignity. —Two omni bus drivers were recently up before the Recorder, on the charge of whipping one another instead of whipping their horses. “ Why do you quarrel ?” said the Re corder ; “you are both in the same line of business.” “ Veil, look here, Mr. Recorder,” said one of them, who bad a face ns hard as if he fed upon horse-nails; “look here your honor; I dosen’t mean to say as how a gentleman, such as you is, vouid vound the feelin’s or injure the character of a young man that hasn’t got nothin’to depend on but bis pnrt’ession, as I is; but, I fell you, yon touches my feel in’s on the raw veil you insinuates thet I belongs to the same line as he does.
