before, reformers may prate as thoy mayabout

by labor that man comprehends tho existence
of Deity, and tho beauty and utility of hls
works—to adorn the earth and bring forth Its
productive power, ond to expand tho human

Every person In society should.produco,
physically or mentally, ns much for socloty
as ho requires to recolvo from socloty for its
full enjoyment, No father cah transmit to
hls son tho right of being useless to his fol
low creatures. The man who cams not hls
bread, but cats that of idleness, Is, so far as
the original Intention Is concerned, leading a
life of doubtful morality. A moral and Intel
lectual being disdains to lead a lifo of useless
ness, for rich or poor, strong or weak, , every
idle member of socloty Is either a knave or a
fool. Evon atthe risk of being anticipated,
wo cannot help quoting the following beauti
ful extract:
“Why, man of Idleness, labor rocked you
in tile cradle, nnd has nourished your pam
pered lifo; without It tho woven silks and
wool upon your back would bo in tho silk
worm’s nest, and tho fleeces in tho sliopherd’s
fold. For the meanest thing that ministers
to human want, save tho air of heaven, man
is indebted to toil; and even tho air, by God’s
wlso ordination, is breathed with labor.
“ It Is only tho drones who toil not, who in
fast tlio hlvo of activity liko masses of cor
ruption and decay. The lords of tho earth
aro working,men, who can build up or cast
down at their will, and who retort tho sneer
of tho soft “soft handed,” by pointing to their
trophies, wherever nrt, science, civilization
and humanity aro known. Work on, man of

of power."—Farmer ami Mechanic.

8. That while struggling, freedom, every
where, enlists the warmest sympathy of tho.
Whig party, we still adhere to -tho doctrines
of tho Father of opr Country, as announced
in hls Farowoll Address, of keeping ourselves
free from all entangling alliances with foreign
countries, and of novor quitting ottr own to
stand upon foreign groilud. That our mission
ns a Republic is not to propagate our opinions,
or imposo on other countries our form ofgur-
ornmont, by artifice orforco, but to teach by
example, and show by our success, modera
tion and Justice, tho blessings of solf-goToro-

trol tho Government, they should obey Its
Constitution, laws and treatlos, as they would
retain their self-respect, and the respect which
thoy claim and will onlbrce front foreign pow<

8. Government, should ho conducted on
principles of strictest economy, snd revenuo
sufficient for the exponses thereof In tlmo of
peace, ought to be derived from a duty on
imposts, ahd not from direct .taxes; and In
laying such duties, sound policy requires a
just discrimination, whereby suitable ciicour-

try, equally to all classes and to all portions
ofthe country.

tloiAnd facility of commorco with foreign
nations or among the States ; said improve

7. The Federal and State governtnents are
parts of ono system, allko necessary for tho
common prosperity, peace and security, and

habitual god immovable attachment. Be-
spcct for the authority of each, and acquies

8: That the series of acts of the 81st Con
gress, the Act known as the Fugitive Slave
Law included, aro received and'acqulcsced in
by tho Whig party of the United States as a
settlement in principle and -substance of the
dangerous and exciting questions which thoy
embrace, and So far as they are concerned,
we will maintain and insist Hpoh their strict
enforcement until time and experience shall
demonstrate tho necessity of further legisla
tion to guard against evasion ofthe laws oh
the One hand ond tho abuse of their powers
on tho other—not impairing their present effi
ciency ; and we deprecate all forthor agita

to oitr peace, and will discountenance all ef
forts to Cflntlnuo of renew such agitation
whonover, whorever or however the attempt
may be made; and wo will maintain this tfh-
tem as ossential to tho Nationality of the
Whig party and tho Integrity ofthe Union:

The Whig Nominations;
It wiil bo seen by referouco to our Tele
graphic despatches that Gen. Scott, and tho
Hon. W. A. Graham, liavo teen nominated
by the National Whig Convention as their
Candidates for President and Vice President.
The nomination of Gen. Scott under any eir-
cumstanccs wotild not have been acceptable
to the peoplo of Georgia. It is not, there;
fore, to he wondered at, that the news of his
nomination yesterday was not only a source
of deep and heartfelt mortification, bnt of
universal condemnation among tho Whigs
and Union jnernof the pity. We have heard
of no man—not a single one who approves it,
and unless there is, a vory great .ohange In
public sentiment, few ifanywlU support him,

is needless to sny, that nolthor wo nor tbd

Ittvlll not answer for tlio Froo-Soll advo;

of tho Convention. Tho PJatform Is a plccd

No—the Supporters oi General Scott care
nothing for tlio platform of tho Convention.—
They Consont to Its adoption becauso' they
could notholp themselves, and because thoji
feared that “a vlolont, determined resistance’'
would damage hls prospects. Tho platform
Is but a transcript, an embodiment, of tho
principles and practices of Mr. Fillmore
and Mr. Webster ; and yet thoy were over

With which to beat ont our brains four or
eight years hence, whon ho should bo brought

tlfy themselves. They can never tamely sub

FibLiiORE and Webster, nor bo beguiled in
to tho support ofa puppet in the hands of nri
Infamous faction. In times past, they have

But they can not support Gen! Scott—wd

much of us;
No party, in any period of 1 tho history hi

liberal and Catholic spirit of Nationality;
than tho Whig party of Georgia. In return;
thoy have been cheated ond betrayed. Thoy
