Notwithstanding tho apprehensions of many presses throughout this, and other States, in re gard to the nationality of the Atnericun Party in New York, we are able to announce that the news of each suecossire week from that quar ts of a highly acceptable character. There was a time, wc arc bound in candor to admit, juston the eve of Sctvavti s election, when the conservatism of the party seemed somewhat questionable, llow much soever the solicitude of the South may have been heightened at that time, by a prospr olive view of political issues, we recent dcvelopeiuoBtfl have been sufficient allay it. Such members of the Know Noth* paniraiion as hate evinced a disposition in, and abet the re-election of II m. JL mvc, since his election, been deserved- d. The order now It one occupy- rly national grounds, such as were u*d for its basis in its incipiency. dismembered of men whose ex- the promotion of internal dis- , ligation ofFree-soilprin- — *1 well as oat of it, we have aaterf%s>^ recognise it as be inf suspicions of the inlry's goad. the principle* *f the Native American and Free koii parties respectively are one and idea- 4 tical, have bv the pr avenlion ad nnequiv- 41-awb-1 gfi at Svra.-wc. been more positively ocally refuted, than could hare been none uj the ingenuity of sepbistry or the cogency of the soundest logic. While we are willing to admit that many, nay. even the majority of the Amer ican Party in New York are opposed to the in stitution of slavery, we by no means are rre pared to concede to the opinion that the design of the Orgaoiration, n* such, is an infringement lie Constitutional rights of the South.— ot a clause in their platform to justi- snob a belief. They have a highcrand iew, than that of aggression ‘ ‘ ad«foW^erfrights-an end which, mneipares us from many sour- dssensiou. The Piatforra, as pub- world. by no means militates a* the sectional interests of the Southern On the other hand, it embodies the al of those Tery principles for which the ?ou:h was contending in tho great straggle of 1550. Its avowed determination is « to “oppdM a’ ‘ higher law doctrines, by whieh the constitution is ta be set at nought, violated, or disregarded, whether by pofiticiaas or religion- sets, or by the adherents or followers of either, or any other class of person*." Itjnoreorer, as* lores vu that iU aim i» the "defence and main tenance of the Constitution as it stands, the Un ion as it exist«,*and rise rights of the States with out diminution as guaranteed thereby" It is often said, and with some degree of truth- falnes*. too. that very little reliability is to be placed in adopted platforms; hut it would seem tigm the proceedings of this new party, that it is disposed to maintain a rigid adherence to its published principles. As might hare been rea sonably expected, the rapid accession of mem* hers at fir't, rendered the admissibility of un worthy men highly probable. If the Order has erred by an injudicious admission of such per sona it has nobly redeemed its character, and tone mutual justice to itself and its outcasts well timed expul dons. In another column will be found a letter from ’Ir. Wilsox, the Senator elect from Massachn- ♦tta. His position is therein, well defined. It will be remembered that this is the man against whom the most malignant vituperations were volunteered- He was charged as being an ab olition •* *ujdan exponent of tho order to which he belonged. We haro no disposition to defend him in his past political course, for he was a fi t subject of rebuke : but if he in future will do n<>thing in violation of the doctrines published in his letter, he cannot be an object of much ap prehension. We infer that he, no matter what may have been his political creedheretofore, will •titer the Senate as an American, not as nfanatic. Taking hi* own words as an index of his future actions, we see no ostensible reason why they fhouid not hush tho c!am*r of those who hare arraigned themselves against the American Party as an ally and an auxiliary of Abolition- jjm. Every vulnerable point in the new order has been diligently availed by tbe enemy. Thus far, the very javelins that have been dipped in the poison of malice, or misrepresentation, and barlel at the Know Nothings, have recoiled with two-fold vengeance upon the assailants themselves. Unless some fortuitous and unforeseen dis sension arise to disintegrate this rapidly increa sing party, it will in a few years, do much to disenthrall our country of .corrupting influen ces and polj$ed licentiousness. Well then might it congratulate itself on the dawn of a now po litical era. Tho throes and convulsions of ex piring parties are ever simultaneous with the ushering in of a brighter and more auspicious future. By a gradual blending of all true Am ericans into one great and common brotherhood, the turbulent commotion which has been, and now is, characterizing our political conditions, will ultimately cease, A change Is already be ing wrought mysterious in its operations, silent in its progre*», and unerring in the achieve noentof its derign. At its approach tho cun ning artifice* of the political tactician are baffled, the renal offerings of the aspiring trickster arc rendered inefficient, and the voice of tho dema gogue u hushed to sQeaee. The nun of merit, ho who deserves a higher office, tsWHMi he has faithfally discharged the duties of a tower one, must be the people's choice. The pampered and portly dignitary of a borough "regency” who has no higher claims than the accidental ones of conutnguiniiy, shall no longer be a nucleus of power. Instead of aspiring to still higher po sitions, b« shall stop and pause with astonish ment that be has already attained a sbpere above that in which nature ever designed him to move. The time in not far distant when the ballot-box _ will cease beiDg the roceptocle of votes elicited by bribery, extorted by threats, purchased by promises, or prompted by drunkenness. When such a change shall have been fully wrought, the man of Ulent, integrity and of patriotism will be the one, the only cue, entitled to the expec tancy of political or official honor. So mote it bo. t ' fitvenisr Johnson, In Floyd and Polk. Within the last few weeks we haro had a very favorable opportunity of ascertaining the feel ings ofthe people In Floyd and Polk counties in regani to tho re-election of Mr. Johnson. If we may dc chico any correct conclusions from the popular voice, so far as we have heard U ex pressed, Gov. Johnson would get but few rotes In this section. Tho Whigs are against him, the Union Democrats are opposed tor Wro, and the Know Nothings, (who are said to be- very numerous hereabouts,) would prefer any other man than him- The old line Democrats, those who are clutching at the floating planks of their sbnttfTfd raft, of course would vote for him, if nominated. If ho should come out as a candid ate, be will stand a poor chance in Northern QOnegin, that’s certain. Romans. Read This! The stringency of money BMtten during the * present season, undo consequent depression in business transactions generally, are plausible arguments against lavish expenditures either public or private. Notwithstanding this, it U very appropriate to take into consideration, and discuss the merits of any enterprise which may, when carried into execution, rcdouucd to tho interest of our city and of tho ai(jaeont country. We know of no ono ofa mere local nature, whieh should reed the approval andeooperation of our citizens saors cordially, than that of rendering Rome a plnco of Summer resort to tbs people of lower Georgia! No town in Chserokeo has boon more favored by nature than ours has. Located at tho conflueoeo of two rtvovs, in tho adds! of a health Ail and picturesque country, ^aboun ding io tho best of water, and inhabited by a refined and intelligent seelety of people, Romo oeriainly might by the use of proper moons, bo made an attmetive plnco to vlsltonrfirdm tho low oountiy. Our hotslaalmady, are snob as would compare favorably with those of largeer cities, commodious in their structure, and convenient ly furnished. Little, very Utile expanse would necessarily bo inearred in Inducing visitors to eoaee and spend tho summer months in our midst; and oven that Would be in famishing such sources of amusement as would enable them to pas* off their time pleasantly and agree- His to be apprehended that very Utile elfort baa ever been made to efifect this desirable ob. jeet. Living as we do, from the main lino of public travel, few, save those whoso business oalls them this way, everjvlsit the place; and hence, its true charaoter is not generally known. We would suggest to our landlords the propriety of advertising extensively in the southern portions ofthe State, and of using such other means as would have a tendency to direct atten tion hither. We boUove they would be remu nerated four fold thereby. A sojourn of visi tors with ns for two or three months In the sum mer season, when pecuniary help is most need ed, would throw Into circulation thousands of dollars, whieh we now jose far the riant -of a proper and well directed offort to secure it We observe that the eitbens of Marietta are making commendable efforts to famish thslr town with aeonvenlent Hotel for tho visi tors expeeted daring tho approaching summer. Wfll not somo action be token by our citizens indicative of their desire to equal other towns in theirseal to confer a substantial benefit upon ocj pleasant city ? x Charles J. Jenkins. . Judging from such information, as we bare received, both public nnd private, wc should in fer that in Central Georgia, tho Hon. C. J Jen ifers is the choioo of the majority, as a can didate fer the Gubernatorial Chair. Consid ering it premature, as we do at present, to dis cus* the merits of different men for that office we wiD only go so far as to state, that if he be- comos ihe regular nominee, there is no man whose claim* we should more cheerfully advo- oate to the best of our ability. He is assuredly a man wordy the highest honors ofthe State— one who would acquit himself with great credit in any office within the gift ofthe people. The Hon. A. H. Stephen's in a recent letter to the Editor of the Savannah Republican, in regard, to the -man whom he considers the most suitable for our next Governor, makes use of the following language: Dea r Sir :—I have just received, from a friend in a distant part of the State, a "slip” taken from a late number of tho Republican, whieh is here appended— And from tho tone of the letter accompany ing it, I deem it proper, in order to prevent oil misconstruction of my position on tho subject, to state, that, while I entertain for Mr. Dawson the highest respect, andshall give him my cor dial support for the office of Governor, if he be selected and nominated by a convention of those with whom it has been my pride as well as plea*' nrc heretofore to act, yet I had nothing whatev er to do with the "movement” alluded to.- Mr. Jenkins, over and above.every other man in the State, is the man of my choico and pref erence for Governor. j2^“The Mountain Signal, published at Dah- lonega, has come cut in favor or tbs Know Noth ing Platform I^wffl be borne in mind that this has, hitherto, been a strictly demoeratie sheet We opine that the editor, by his corage out and n dependent course, in espousing a creed which commends itself to the’approval of every one de- sirous of protecting the American, interest, will be a subject of persecution by bis old political as sociates. Our cotemporary of the SIgnal must expect to incur the male dictions of the present Administration party. Be it so; their ranks are growing "bcantifallyles3” and, erelong, the pres ent Executive Head called upon to retire to pri. vale life and make room for one whose views and aetions will beUer comport with tho wishes of of the people. The Signsl says: ' We publish this week what are said to be the principles os the Know Nothing party. Wo may not know anything about the Know Nothings* but this much we do know, that if such are the prinepiles of the so called order, they are such as we cordially and freely ondorso. Wo shall sustain the party that advocates these principles and we shall oppbse those who oppose them. . Rorticu! urv At this season of the year ovory family feels more or less interest in this important subject, and have an anxiety to know the best varieties of vegetables and fruits, andtbo best mode of cultivation. Many new, and extravagantly recommended, kinds of plants nnd modes of culture have been, and aro now, being treated of in onr Agricultur al and Horticultural Journals. But it is too fre quently the ease that this is done by those who bare gone into it os a speculation, and by undu ly setting forth the advantages and keeping back the disadvantages of their new projects, have misled tho people, till now suggestions in this lino have come to be ftgardrfS as "humbng- gery” and “moon-thino." If it i* impolitic to adopt all innovations, it Is equally so to discard them all, for there are real, substantial improvements being made and such as men baring an eyo to their own inter est, and good living, onght to adopt Now the question naturally arising is, how shall we know what to adopt and what to neglect Thl can be satisfactorily answered only after actual trial, for it, is eertian and reliable information that is needed now, and not merely "good suggestions” from persons bar ing no practical knowledge. No ono man eon test all the so-called improvements, and hence we suggest the formation of a Horticultural So* doty, which shall hold meetings, say monthly, in which persons feeling an interest in snob matters, may, in a familiar way, discuss the merits of various plant* and fruit* nnd modes of c ulture, and report their experiments. We will devote *ono column of tho Courier weekly to tho publication of original articles on this and kindred subjects, if so nines should bo contributed; and we hereby invito gebtiomen to send ns communications containing useful practical information, written ns concisely as may be, and we will publish them with pleasure. We hope the subject will receive the attention that its importance demands, and that somo means will bo devised by whieh u healthful in terest may be exeitod, and improvements made in accordance with the spirit of the timer.

Santa Fa.—The latest intelligence from San ta Fe is indicative of fearful hostilities on tho part of the Indians. A report was correct that 400 Savages were on their way to take and de stroy the town. Several skirmishes have al ready occurred between the whites and the In dians with a losa of men on both sides. It is evident that the western frontier is not sufficient ly guarded troops to protect tho inhabitants against tho pillages and murders so frequently committed by the Indian tribes. The Hon. J. W.

[For the Courier.] YIELD NOT TO DESPAIR. Awoke mourningpilgrim, thou sleepost too long, Awake from tby sadness, awake to the song That nature is swelling,and press on awhile, Entranced by her rousie, caress'd by her smile, Together we’ve drank’from life’s bitterest cap, But come, let us onward and ever look np; For wby should a pilgrim surrender to care, Or yield his last lingering hope to despair? Awake mourning pilgrim, awake from thy dream Why, why will yon cling to a sorrowful theme That rises before thee as Appenine heights. Transforming tby days into gloomiest nights ? Awake, and look oat oo’r this beautiful world, And catch from Hope's rays on her banner un furl’d, Twas felly 'twas folly to yield to despair. Oh say, mourning pilgrim, bast thou ever sought Earth's wealth and ber feme and condemned ^ item as nought? Then awake, for thy doty requires theo now To banish the shadow that mantles thy brow: And labor with diligence, prudence and love, To guide fellow pilgrims to glory above; Obey ber behest and away with your care, 'Tis sinful, 'tie sinful to "yield to despair. Oh spoak mourning pilgrim, what meaneth those sighs And tears that aro flowing so feat from thine eyes Have dear ones departed, thy bosom friends gono And left tboe to wander a pilgrim alon 0 ? I've wept o’er my plighted ones corpse at her tomb, •' And then was my spirit encircled in gloom, But hope of her bliss found me laden with care. And bade me not yield myself np to despair. Perhaps mourning pilgrim somo hypocrite’ skiss Has won thy reliance, then blighted thy bliss; But will yon for this, all as traitors oxpose, And never in future, in any reposo? Condemn not thy race on account ofa few, Bnt think, and think wisely that many are true If this be tho cause of tby withering, care, Arise, and resolve that yon will not despair! Awake mourning pilgrim, time flieth with baste And thou hast no moment in slumbor to waste Already tbon nearest death’s mythical stream And faith would reveal thee a hallowed gleam, Of tho Christian’s repose, and bear thee away From earth and bar woes to Immaculate day, If you would not pause to consider your care, Nor foolishly yield yoursolf up to depair.

Havana is strongly guarded by volunteers. An outbreak is expocted in a few days. Caxaoiar Troops for the Crimea.—We learn from tho Toronto Colonist that just pre vious to the resignation of the Aberdeen Min istry, arrangements bad been eonelndod at the Horser Guards, authorizing the Canadian Gov ernment to raise two Regiments of Rifles for serviee in the Crimea. The Colonist believes there are many who aro desbrohs of taking a part in the war, and will 'Emil the announcement that the Palmerston Ministry have resolved to raisp the troops, with much pleasure.

The treaty with the King of tho Netherlands, and also that with the Kingdom of the two Sici lies, on the principle that freo ships moke free goods, and several minor Indian treaties, were sent in. The prohibitory Liqor Law Bill, before the New'Jersey Legislature, was lost in the Senate on Thursday, by a vote of 10 |o 0.

The New York Herald contains dispatches from Harrisburg, stating that the Spenkor of the Houso and tnuny members lately addressed a letter to George Law, sounding him on na tional affairs, nnd urging liis acceptance of a nomination for tho Presidency, stating, also, that much excitement has boon produced in consequence. Toe Tex Millions—The New York Herald states that, according to its special advices from Washington, there is a probability that a power- orfnl effort will be mado to grant to the Presi dent a discretionary fund of ton milions, in view of the possible exigoneles which may ariso during tho. recess of Congress, especially in view of our relations with Spain, Movement or the Allies.—Tho N.

Negro Thief Caught.—We learn from the Auburn Gazette, that a negro thief named Burge, was arrested there a few days since, and jailed. He had stolen a negro from CoL N. J.

Thb Slave Burns.—Mr. Grimes, who has of late boon engaged in Boston, in tho collec tion of money for the purpose of purchasing the slave Anthony Bums from his owner, has sueeeeded in his endeavors, and ne cessary amount, $1,300 has been contributed.— Mr. Grimes left on Friday fer the Sooth with the funds. The U. S. District Attorney and tho U. S. Marshal, each contributed $50. At the recent town oloetions in tho interior of New York, the Know Nothings have almost without exception carried the day. It is evi dent that Mr. Seward’s return to the Senate was a violation of the will of the people, as in those towns represented by the recusant Know Nothing members of the Legislature, the party triumphs by largo votes. Ism Suits.—The editor of the H. Y. Her ald announces his intention to commoneo civil actions against Messrs. Greeley, McEIratb, Hy and Company, for libels lately-published in the Tribano, and will demand at least fifty thousand dollars damages. Murder or a King.—A continental corres pondent of the London Morning Advertiser writes: “A very unfortunate erent has just oc curred at the Hague—an ovonrof so diatress- ingn nature that I should hositate to narrate it, but that it comes to mo from unquestionable authority. The King of Holland lately went to visit one of his mistresses and found one of his aid-de-camps closeted with her. The King rushed upon the officer and stabbed him; the wound, it is said, has proved fetal, and great exertions are being made in high places to keep this honible tragedy from the public.” *— Pass Ihe Rascal Round. A young lady writes ns that a plausible scamp calling himsolf Jesse Taylor, after inducing hor to many him, by false representations, has lo ped with a married woman, with whom he -is now living in Sonth Carolina. She de scribes him as a good looking young man about 20 years of age, abont 5 feet, 8 or ten inch es high, with dark eyes and hair. She then asks what we would advise her to get rid of him.— We would advise her to “let them travel,” as any redress for such a grievance, would only bo adding insult to injury. He deserves to be rode through South Carolina on a rail cushioned with living poronpines—to be fed on fish hooks, and to sleep on circular Baws. It would take two dozen such tailors to mako one decent man; therefore we hopo our fair, but unfortunate cor-* respondent, will hot grieve over misfortunes whieh ore irrcmodiablo.—Cherokee Georgian. .

Strychnia and its Antidote.—In tbe last namboroftha Medical and Surgical Journal, published in Richmond, wo notice an artiolo in it on tho abovo powerfal and sudden poison, by Dr. Tewkesbury, of Maino. Ho says: . .• y* "Thu frequency with which stryennia is used for poisining purposes, has attracted tho serious attention not only of medical men but tho pnbllo generally.

Ho also triod it by way of experiment on dogs, and found that, whenever he could administer the camphor Bpoedily enough, ho was success!!:! In prevent ing the poison from causing death.” We clip the following sensible communication from the Southern Becordor and recommend it to a careful perusal. Unlike tbe great majority of Domoorats, tbo author bos tho candor to spook oat boldly in favor ofamnnof true merit, notwithstanding Mr. Jenkins belongs to a sohool of polities widoly differing from his own. Messrs. Editors: After an unbroken-political calm of many months, unmistakablo signs in various quarters, very clearly indicate that tbs country is shortly to be agitated by tbe discuss ion of titepretonstons of tho different candid ates who may be nominated to fill tbo Executive chair, upon the expiration of the present term. Already in anticipation of the coming contest, tho names of several distinguished gontlemon have been submitted to the publio, as worthy to be promoted to tho leadership; and prominently at tho head of tho list, I am happy to poreeire that of Chablrs J. Jenkins, a name which at dboo associates with it all the personal qualities and political qualifications which, evon in the S IM of his former opponents rendorjhis nomina- on one lit to flo mode. Indeed man J,' very many, dispassionately looked at tho^proseht atUtndo of partios, at their near approximation to ea6b oth er, by theocenpaney of the same platform, will cheerfully ftf** him tbatynpport whieh from an overexcited state of feeling was withheld from him inlho last contest They justly consider they are guilty of no inconsistency on thoir part, in sustaining tho man whose past action, in their sober second thoughts they now approve and applaud. A great change in this respect is being wrought in the public mind. No one who has mingled freoly with the people in the last few months, and heard tbo expressions of their sentiments oan avoid arriving at this eonolu- sion. Editors may write what thoy may, and old Honkers may rant and rave abont the ne cessity of preserving old parties, hut every man capable of thinking for hitnself must readily per ceive that tho questions wbieh formally made ono a Whig, and a nother a Democrat, no lon- gorj engross and distract the public mind. These are no longer subjects of controversy and dis* missions; they have been superseded by tbe presentation of issues wbieh bavo promptly in duced both partios to disconnect themselves from all who were the advocates of a policy in- vssivo of their constitutional rights and subver sive of their local interests. After assuming this position, I can bnt regard it as an error on the part of onr Democratic friends, that'thoy should have been in haste to rejoin thoir old associates whilst they still continued to be strongly tictnred with free-soil and abolition principlte. I still hope they will retrace' their steps, that Georgia may no longer present the spectacle ofa people divided among thomselves in refereoco to matters, in which all profess, we should act as ono man.

Let ns stand on one side, for tbe Emperor is coming; he is dressed in a grey military cloak, and leather helmet ornamented with gold; pre cisely similar to that of any officer. He has a fine feet; bis fair complexion and tbe general cast of bis features show his German descent, bnt there is something peculiarly disagreeable about his eyes. His noble figure amply fills the sledge wbieh drives at a rapid pace past us.— His*majesty looks older than a few months ago; his hair is grayer and his sbolders rounder, yet be is a fine man still. He'acknowledges the low bows of bis people by a military salute, and leaves behind him, as be advances, many open months and wide staring eyes among tbe sheep skin gentiy who perhaps have bnt just come into St. Petersburg with the "Winter-loads,” andean scarcely gaze their fill at tbe Czar, whom in their Ignorance they imagine a kind of God upon the earth. Look! the Emperor is giving a military salute to some ladies in ablne carriage, with two Cossacks in scarlet behind; it is ber a Majesty tbe Empress and her daughter. The red uniform of the Cossacks is the distinct ive mark between ber lively and that of the heir apparent which is bine.—The English Woman in Russia. _ /ST-Fromourown personal observation we are satisfied; that the principles of the American par ty are daily gaining adherents everywhere Onr recent trip to Walton convinced us that tbe movement is what it has been represented to be, not the work of broken down party hacks and superannuated demagogues (these oppose it bitterly)—but' a general uprising of tho time American People who. feel and know that their dearest rights are imperilled, and are determin ed to make a united effort-regardless of former party alignment^ to rescue from the prfoanation of native demagogues and foreign criminals, paupers and Jesuits, tbo liberties, whieh their fathers transmitted to them. We aro satisfied that the movement is onward and in tbe right direction It is high time that the people be np and doing—there is no time to spore in idle indeeision, Let them show their hands at once; either take sides with their own patriotic coun trymen, or join the “Swiss Guards” land’“for cign leigions” commanded by the hooks and demagogues of rotten, worn out partios, Southern Watchman.

Dear Biddy:—We’ve had a bit of fun here abouts lately, that I thought would plazo you and Father Muipby, your Coufissor, that you must tell about it, to show what we boys can do whin wo’ve a mind to try our hand. „ The bloody Know Nothings have got a man in the Post Office here who. is a hcrotiolc and belongs to 'em,.butkeeps dark and says noining, and minds his bisness mighty close. 8o to lift tho spalpoen from his -plaeo, we got Barney and Miko and Dennis and Patrick and Phelim and Jhamcs and Father O’Reel, (Lord bless bis Rov’ronce 1). to get up a bit of a paper, and we S t our Captain to sind it on to Jimmy O*- mpbell, at Washington, dbd tell him to have tbe thing done. As soon ns Jinnny resaved it he kept dark and didn’t tell the.Prisidinta word about it—for you see It was none of bis bisness—but fixed up the papers righ t away to have a frind of ours, by the name of-O'Hugh, put in tbo place. We’ve done the thing open and above board, for all of our boys had a hand in it—nope of your saeret Know-Nothin doins—-we . only kept it from the Protestants and here ticks, to keep them from making a muss, and our Captain was a good fellow and throe frind of ours, and wouldn't do any thing saeretiy, but is always open and above board in everything.* Now you naden't belavo a word of the Know Nothins parsecutin ns—they can't do nothin’ whin we have sich frinds as Nelly's son for our Captain, and Jhrunes O’Campbell at Government We’ll have things our awn way, Biddy ma- vonmoon, before long, and no mistake, and you may expect about next March, year that bis Riv’renee Father Hughes will be the Prisident, and then tbo hereticks may look out Won't we roste'em?

[From tbo American Organ*] Senator Wilson on Slavery and American ■. Ism* ’. Washington, Fob. 17, 1855. Bear Sir:—Referring you to my oditoriols for the last two weeks, I havo to ask you how far I bayo correctly represented your views in my comments upon your letterof20th .January, and tho articles in tho Boston Boo, which I havo copied? In other words, do you or not recognize tho dootrino of State rights, so far os to permit tbo several States to regulate tho question of slavery in their own mode within their Stnto limits? Do you or not entertain the opinion that CongreM has power to interfere with slavery in the State 7 Do you or not rec ognise that "higher law” doctrino, which per mits you os a Senator to disregard tho binding obligation of tho constitution ? Does tho ‘Ameri can organization” in Mass&chusotts, embrace tho question of elaveiy amongst those for the regulation of which that organization was formed. * ' „ Youranswor, nt your earliest convenience, will oblige your obedient servant, VespasianEllts, Editor American Organ. Hon. Henry Wilson, U. S. Sonato. Senate Chamber, Feb. 19, 1855 Dear Sir: My answer to your inquiries will be brief and explicit -1st I faUy recognizo tbe doctrines of State rights in its application to slavery, as well as to any other matter of public concom. The Virginia and Kentucky resolutions of 1798, in the main, as I think, correctly set forth that deetrine. Tbe whole subject of slavery within State limits should be left absolutely to State Legis lation. 2d. My response to year second question is Included in my answer to your first I do not entertain the opinion that Congress has any power to interfere with slavory, aa it oxists un der State laws. 3d. Every man who believes in a God most necessarily believe that there is a law para mount to all .human law, and that this law is to be obeyed by men in public and private life, rather than any human Jaw in conflict with it But I see nothing in the constitution of the United States, as I understand the Constitution of the United States, wbioh requires me, as a Senator from Massachusetts, to do anything in conflict with the law Of God. HI thought otherwise, I would not take an oath to support the Constitution of tbe United States. 4tb. The American Organization in Massa chusetts does not embrace the question of slave ry among those for the regulation of whieh it’ was formed. The people of Massachusetts have fixed opin ions in which most of the members of that or ganization fully concur, against the rapport or allowance of slavery by national legislation.' • They entertain the most profound conviotionl that the harmony and repose of the country, and the highest interests of the master and the slave demand that the government should be relieved from aE connexion with re” sponsibility for slavery, and that this distur bing question should be left to the people of the States where it exists. While they-do not seek to impose thofseow- victions and opinions upon their ARow^itfetas of other States, or to proscribe them for not . frilly concurring in those eonvietioas and opin ions, they wili submit to no dictation or pro= scription from any body or men, or section of the country. I, ns a Senator from Massachusetts, shall claim for the opinions of ber people all tbe free dom of utterance, and all the influenco upon the action of Congress and tbe administration of tbe government, which a Senator from Virgin ia can claim fer tbe opinions' of the people of the ancient Dominion. Yonrs truly, Hexrt Wilson. Vespasian Elfis, Esq. r ' Charles J. Jenkins. Believing that any agitation of the Guber natorial question 'for somo time to eomo would be premature, if net mischievous, we have pur posely abstained from all discussion of the sub ject Nothing, so far as we could see, was to be gained by bringing it forward at this early day; whereas, a different potiey might and we believe would, result in positive good. The people of Georgia just now are separating into' four political divisions—Whigs, Democrats, Know-Nothings and Temperance men; and, without prudence on tbe part of the conserva tive press, each of these divisions may be dri ven to make distinct nominations^—a consum mation meat devoutly to be deplored. There need not, and should not, be more than two candidates for Governor. One of these candid ates will be nominated by the supporters of the present ^National and State administrations; and tbe other should be solected by tbe oppo nents of those administrations. Should this policy be adopted, there^need not be the least apprehension as to tho result. , * . It was our wish to keep the question open to tbe latest day possible, and not to indicate in advance any choice of the person to bo selected as onr standard bearer; bnt as thcQpraa in the interior Is agitating the subject/and as we de sire to be heard while others are speaking, We depart from onr original resolution, and declare that, that able statesman and,incorruptible pa triot, Charles J. Jonkins r is, above all others, onr choice. Aside from his pie-eminent fitness for the station, and his long and valuable ser vices, bis friends owe It to him, no less tiffin to tbemselvos, to give him an. opportunity to vin dicate himself against the fool misrepresenta tions to which his opponents in the last canvass resorted, and to which his unexpected defeat is to be ascribed.—Had fair dealingbeen the order of tbe day, there Is scarcely anjintelligentmanof either party who must not confess, that Mr. Jen kins would this day be tbe honored Governor of the State. And what a Governor he would have made, with bis great hoart, his fino intel lect, his spotless character, and his extensive knowledge of the laws, nearly all'of which he has assisted In framing or passing! In this matter we do not speak for ourselves alone. So far as wo have been ablo to ascer tain public opinion in tills portion of the State, it i* tho genoral desire of his old friends that -he should be again put in nomination. Like ourselves, however, should he decline to ran, or should some other suitable person be selected, they will give to the nominee their hearty sup port.—/Sbrannak Republican. Tbe Court of Claims. One of the most Important bills which has passed Congress within onr remembrance re ceived tho final sanction of tho legislative branch yesterday. We refer to the bill to estab lish a Court of Claims, to which we ventured not long since to invoke the favor of tho House of Representatives, with which it then rested. This bill was oalled np yesterday at a favorable moment, and, the friends of it wisely abstaining from dobato, it was forthwith passed by-a large majority. We should not bo surprised if it saves one-fourth part of the sessions of Con gress how spent in the examination and discuss .ion of claims. It will, however, operate be neficently in' a variety of ways. It will not only secure to just claims an early hearing and prompt sottiomont, bnt it will got rid of tho in- torminablo renewal of unfounded ones, and thus savo tho time of Congress from being yoar after year in tho re-examination of rejected claims. Tho bill gives, jurisdiction to tho Court to hear and determine all claims founded upon any law of Congress, or upon any regulation of an Executive Dopnrtment, or upon any contract, expresf or implied, with tho Government of the United States, and all claims referred by either Houso of Congress. Tho testimony in all cases to bo reported to Congress, and all upon which favorable decisions aro given, are to be aoeoropaniod by a hill or bills to carry them into offect, and with briefs from tho soli citor. of ti» Board and from tbo claimant- ■ It will bo thus seen that tho Courtis to per form tho work now laboriously but imperfectly done by committees, and Congress is to revise tho wholo and act upon tho subjects prosontod, as at present. On many subjects nu opinion well matured by the Court will servo as tho basis for action on all similar cases; and there will not perhaps bo so many inconsistencies in legis lation as at present, when tho success or failure of a measure dopends in a groat degroo upon which ono House or tho other may happen to be feund whontho vote is takon. At all events there is: tho probability of a more raataro in vestigation than by tho presont mode, and it is to bo hoped we shall hear but little more of what is deemed more than tho."Jaw’sjdolay," tho pcndoncy of claims before Congress of half a cantury’s duration.—National Intelligencer. Macon Manufacturing Company.—During tho last six months, tho profits of this florish- ing Company have boon at the rato of 18 por cont. por annum on tho amount of stock. It lms declared a dividend of ten per cont., and has accumulated during the last eighteen months, over the dividends, a reserve fund of thirty seven thousand dollars. - LATER FROM EUROPE.
