excluding Maryland and Missouri, two border
States, only 178,934 persons of foreign birth,
but little more than in the single State of Mas
sachusetts ; that is, there are nearly as many
upon 7,800 square miles of abolition territory,
as upon about 800,000, or over one hundred

for self-govern
ment—if they were aO concentrated upon 1-20
part the space they ooenpy, consolidated into a
tingle State, with the head and heart of all po
litical power oonoentratod inone turbulent capi
tal, like Paris, eething with revolution, boiling
and bubbling with mob.*,*sedition^anarchy, fana
ticism, and atheism, then there might be some
show of reason for the comparison he has Yen
toted to make. All sensible writers have a
greed, aad all sensible men know, that analogy
is, at beat, bat an extremely unsafe and falla
cious ground of reasoning. There may be fifty
points of similitude nponjjwhich to rest a conclu
sion, and yet a single point of difference may
unbinge the whole. Two compounds may be
identical la their constituent elements, and yet
the smallest particle of a new element in one
may render it totally dissimilar from the other;
nay tho elements may be the same and yet a
alight variation in the proportions in which they
are combined shall render the substances totally
different. What, then, Is this Sophism of Mr.
Stephens worth? It scarcely has a single point of
resemblance upon which to rest, while the
points of difference are numerous and most
striking. It does little credit to his skill as a
reason er, aad marks not only his ignorance of
the subject of which ho treats, but indicates a
low opinion of the American people.
After indulging his fancy in tracing, or rather
hinting at, this supposed analogy between the
Jacobins and their clubs in revolutionary, an
archical, infidel and atheistical France, and the
American party in tbis Republic, be warns us in
the language ofthe Bible—“Let him that think-
eth he standeth take heed lest he falL” Surely
there never was a man more confident that "he
standeth" than Mr. Stephens himself; and there
fore none to whom this warning may more ap
propriately be commended.
Bat he inquires “where did these secret Coun
cils come from t" and answers his own question
thus—“Not from France, it is true—but from
that land of tnu where the people would have
gone into anarchy long agO, If it had not been
far the conservative influence of the more sta
ble minded men ofthe South.”
So, then, we are to condemn principles and
measures, and especially an' organisation be
cause of the place of their origin. We may not
inquire where a man had his origin, or found any
objection to his entering promptly upon all the
rights of citizenship because he had his origin
in a foreign land, but we are to condemn an or
ganisation for reforming abuses because it ori
ginated in a certain section of our own country,
which he calls the land of um. Verily, the
gentleman is becoming very teetionaL His
patriotism, from having been as expansive as
the wide bounds of the Republic, seems at length
to be concentrating upon a section. Some of
ns may remember how be and many of his
amiable eo^djnton once grossly abused
nearly 40,000 of the people of Georgia for being
sectional a few short years back. Where is
this land of "isouT and what ha* made it eueht
" Felix qui potuii rerum cognoecere caueae."
Happy the man who hath been able to trace
effects back to their causes. What ha* -made
a portion of our country the land of inn l Let
facts answer this important question. The land
of ieme is precisely the land where the foreign
flood of immigration has stagnated into a pu
trid pool—effervescing with Catholic supersti
tion, German transcendentalism, and French
communism, and Fourierism. Ofthe two and
a half millions of foreigners who were in the
country in 1850—the Eastern States—Maine,
NewTiampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Con
necticut and Rhode Island, with an area leu
than tiie single State of Virginia by fonr or five
thousand square miles, had over 305,000, while
Virginia bad leu than 23,000, or 1ms than one
for every 13. Yet the population of Virginia is
not so dense as that of N. England, while her
climate and soil are far superior to those of that
region. All these advantages have not been
able'to entice them away from the land of isms.’
The single little 8tate of Massachusetts with
an extent of leu than 8,000 square miles bad in
1850 a foreign population of 163,598, while
Georgia, nearly eight times as large, had only
8402! or one for every 27. More than half of
the entire population of foreign birth in New
England are concentrated upon the soil of tbis
little State, and this little State is the heart
and son! of all the Isms, and especially of free-
soilism and abolitionism. Yet we are told that
tbis foreign population is sound and conserva
tive upon the slavery question ! and act with
that other sonnd and conservative party (the
Democratic) in defence of Sontbern constitu
tional rights. What have they done in Massa
chusetts, singly or in concert, to demonstrate
tbeir fidelity to the constitution and (he Union ?
The foreigners alone, 183,598, wonld make a
respectable party for numbers. Combined with
the Democracy, as they are *aid to be, they
ought to have set Massachnsettsrigbt long ago.
Bat have they done it ? The most wreckltss
demagogue will not dare to assert it So far
from it it is well known that this is the most
thoroughly abolitionized State in the Union.—
With its concentrated foreign population, it is
the focal point ofthe isms, end especially of free
soilism and- abolitionism. Reconcile these
flute with the assertion that the foreigners and
Democrats of the North are sonnd and conser
vative on the subject of Slavery. Nearly Jth of
the population of tbis State in 1850 was of for
eign birth. In New York at the same time
more than one-fifth of the population was of
foreign birth, being 855,224 out of 3,048,325 1
With an area }d 1ms than thatof Virginia, New
York contained a foreign population nearly
thirty times as great Wby is New York also
one of the hot beds of 'he "Um*," and especi
ally of free-soilism and abolitionism ? Why
have not these conservative foreigners noited
with a powerful conservative Democratic par
ty and hnried Seward from power ? Will it be
pretended that their numbers are not sufficient,
when they approached to { of a million five
yean ago, *nd probably amount to a million at
this timo ? Reconcile these facts with the as
sertion that the foreigners are conservative up
on the Slavery question, and aet with the con
servative democracy. Ohio is another focal
point of abolitionism, and bere too, strange
coincidence, were 218,099 people of foreign
ve yean ago I Wbat nave these eonser.
i and tbeir democratic allies been doing?
ow are we to explain the facts that Massa
chusetts, New York, and Ohio, with more than
a million of those conservatives and a strong
democratic phalanx also laid to be sonnd, arc
yet so deeply tinctured with that most fatal of
all the isms, abolitionism ? How does it come
to pass that, as a general rale, where this conser
vative dementis most abundant and powerful
there, this fatal ism, which has already shaken
the pillars of foe Union, is roost prevalentand
li^naut ? These are ^rave^nestions. They
shores, are directed to free-soil States by some
considerations other than a dislike of onr in
stitutions, and that they are totally indifferent
to them. Locating where they do, there to im
bibe their first ideas of onr government and its
institutions, will any reasonable man affect to
doubt what foe resalt will be as it regards the
South and her peculiar institutions ? Are not
foe abolitionists artful, zealous and energetic
in propagating their doctrines, and do they not
find in foreigners from the land of O’Connell
father Matthew, and other European anti-slave
ry saints, willing listeners and ready converts,
especially as|in tho land of their choice they nev.
er see hot one side of the question—never hear
any thing bat fierce denunciation of slavery
and all its concomitants and supporters.
Is there any thing in Mr. Stephens’ philoso
phy to account for foe fact, that these foreign
ers go in such vast disproportion to tho non-
slaveholding States,even to those foe most dense
ly populated? If it is not because they feel a
repugnance to Southern institutions,»chat ie iff
There must be a cause for it? If it is not be
cause they are free-soilers and abolitionists
already, may it not be because they regard
slave labour as superseding theirs? And if
they regard slave labour as excluding, or su
perseding theirs in the regions over which if
spreads, will they not oppose its extension ?
Will they not become free-soilers and even
abolitionists; especially under the zealous teach
ings of these traitorous fanatics? Let these
things be calmly considered by the Southern
people. Let them learn the facts, and ponder
upon them dispassionately. Let them throw
off tho despotism of party, anfLparty leaders,
and looking these dangers resolutely in foe face
prepare to meet them. Itisbnta short time
since these leaden told you that all was well.
That peaee and harmony had, by tbeir efforts,
been restored to a distracted country. Already
yon know they deceived yon. Discard them
and aet for yonraelves.
There is another and most important view of
thtaqnestion, especially for the South. Dividing
this tide of foreigners between foe North and
South in foe proportion established by foe facts
already stated, and making a just allowance for
foe influx of foe last five years, it may be as
sume j as an established fact, that there are at
least 4} millions now in the Union. Of this num
ber 4 millions dwell in free soil and abolition
8tates, half a million in foe Slave-holding States.
What is the effect of this influx, and this une
qual division npon foe political power of the
North and foe South ? (It hns gone and is going
rapidly forward to the complete political subju
gation of onr section) Already it has been foe
material ont of which free-soil has erected new
State after new State, and risen to supremacy
over ns in both branches of foe Federal gov
ernment They have given to the North
superiority in the Senate, in foe Electoral
College and in the House of Representatives.—
They have gained by it not less than fifty rep*
resen tat ives over what yon bare gained in tho
lower branch’of Congress, many of them now in,
and others to follow immediately after the next
census shall have been taken. Tbeir power in
foe Presidential election is already a controling
element. It is openly courted by demagogues.
To propitiate those already here and have oth
ers to come by thousands, onr public domain
has been held np as the bait * The conserva
tive Cass, has proclaimed in Tamany Hall, dur
ing a Presidential Canvass, the agrarian doctrine
of "land to the landle**." Seward,'to propitiate
and win them to his support, denounces tho
Amerioan party; and there can be little doubt
that he wilt be their candidate for the Presi
dency in 1856. Tho abolition, free soil and
foreign elements are those npon which he re
lies. In this connexion, let me call yonr at
tention to foe splenetio attack of Mr. Stephens
npon the resolution adopted by tbo American
party at Macon. He thinks it very cool tame
and submissive. He seems to be getting very
warm, and is in danger of becoming n fire-eater
at last» A judicious reader of his letter will ho
at no loss to account for his warmth. JPhe new
reform party in his district, he has dMbovered,
can do without him. He most probably was
not consulted as to its organization. Short as
foe resolution is, he has garbled it, giving only
that portion of it, which declares that Congress
has no constitutional power to refuse a State ad
mission into the Union because its constitution
recognizes slavery. It is remarkable thatthopart
he auotes is not foe part he attack* That, he keeps
in foe dark, darkness beingin this instance favor
able to his purpose. Here is a total want of fair,
ness and candor. I shall give foe whole resolu
tion, italicising important parts which ho kept
back to show that foe tameness and submissive-
ness which he attributes to it, is utterly ground
less. The truth, the whole truth, and nothing
5«lfoe truth, ough t to appear, and ihaU—no mat
ter who attempts to suppress it or any part of
“Resolved, That ilavery and elave inetitu-
tion* are protected by the Comtitution of the
United Stntee, and the obligation to maintain
them is not, tectional bnt national; thnt the
right to establish them in the organization of
State Governments belongs to tho native and
naturalized Citizens ; and that Congress has
no constitutional power to interfere, by exclu
ding a new State applying for admission into
the Union, npon the ground, that the constitu
tion of such State recognizes slavery.”
Is it nothing to assert unanimously And em
phatically that our institutions are protected by
the Comtitution of the United State* T Does
not this meet foe abolitionists directly in tho
teeth, affirming what they deny t Again, tho res •
olution asserts that the obligation to maintain
onr rights upon the great question is not tectional
bnt National. Here again foe abolitionists and
free-soilers are directly confronted in one of their
cardinal doctrines. More then five years ago,
Massachusetts passed Unanimously, notwith
standing tho comervative foreign and democrat
ic party there, a resolution declaring that tbo
whole power and influence of the Federal Gov
ernment should bewrithdrawn as far as possible
from.tho snpport and protection of slavery.—
That onr institutions should be put without tbo
{ tale of protection by onr own government, and
eft to the assaults of foreign abolitionists,
wbetbor made by lndivldtlfits or Governments.
And who doubts now, that this band of aboli
tion traitors and disunionists would out-law
ns, and gladly abandon ns to foe tender mer
cies and humano practices of the Allies f That
they would, right gladly aid them in their
scheme of abolitionizlng and Africanizing, firit
Cuba, and then our country ? Tho American par
ty of Georgia, planting itsolf upon tho Consti
tution, meets them upon the threshold. There
it will stand “in the imminent deadly breach/’
S ' .
o of Joab,” concealed under a garb,”
—what is it ? To say that this is “in compliance
with the usual practice of the government,” is
no exense; it is not even a palliation of its man
ifest injnstieo. Custom can not sanctify iniqui
ty. Remember that that illastrions statesman,
and incorruptible patriot. J C. Calhoun, faithful
to you and vigilant in defence of your rights
and interest, long ago denounced this “practice
of the government,” which he first called squat
ter sovereignty as sn “insidious attack” upon
yonr rights; “the etcret blade of J oab” concealed
under foe garb of an affected and exoessive re-
S ird for tho dearpeople. He saw its gross injns-
ce and that its manifest tendency and probable
design was to make all Europe—foe whole vast
tide of immigration, swollen to yet greater vol
nine by this very policy subsidiary to the purpo
ses of abolition and free-soil—the politicel sub
jugation of the Sooth and the final overthrow of
hor institutions. People of Georgia, awake,
though late to the patriotic warnings of the sa-
gacious, vigilant, faithful and incorruptible sen-
. tinel, who served you long and well, nnawed
by frowns unseduced by tho blandish-
meats of power!
In view Cf the foregoing facts, who will un.
dertako to say that it is not an important ob
ject to take measures for foe safety of onr re.
public, by imposing some check upon tbis
vast and promiscuous influx of foreigners ? Is
it “pro«cripf«W’of foreigners to deny their right
to rule America, or oven to participate in the
rule while yet steeped in ignorance of our insti-
tions? Is it “proicription" of foreigners to
claim tbo right to rule our native land? Is it “pro
scription of foreigners to guard the purity of
onr institutions from tho corrupting influence of
those, a vast majority of whom are ignorant
of them and many even of onr language. Are
tho people of Europe ripe for self-government,
and the proper depositories of the solemn trpst
of maintaining our free institutions in their orig
inal purity ? The American party is not pro-
scriptive, but conservative. It would exclude
absolutely, paupers and criminals, because it is
too patriotic to tolerate the idea of our country’s
becoming the world’s Botany Bay. The stream
of foe people should not be polluted by the influx
of a tributary so turbid and corrupting. It
will oppose no barrier to the ingress of others,
bnt will take care that they shall become Amer
icanized in heart, and thoroughly instructed in
the principles of American republicanism, be
fore being admitted to participate in the polit
ical privileges of our citizens—foe power to
rule our country. To do so is comervative, not
proscriptive-
The aggregate of privileges civil and reli
gions which we would still accord to them—
would be such as no other government ever ex
tended to so vast a number of foreigners. In
stead of being, as Mr. Stephens asserts, "a de
graded caste" in society, a species of serfs with
out the just franchise of a freeman or the need
ful protection of a slave" they wonld still be
elevated to a position far above that they oc
cupied in their native land, with a near prospect
of raising themselves to one of perfect equality
after going through a preparatory term, while
their children would be born to such an inheri
tance of constitutional liberty ns was beyond
their hopes in their father-lnnd. This class,
elevated above what they had been, or could
even have hoped to be at home, Mr. Stephens
imagines would be dangerous; and he indulges
in another comparison founded upon purjey im<.
aginary resemblance. He says " such was, to
a great extent, tho condition of the Helots in
Greece—men of tho same race placed in an
inferior position, and forming within themselves
a degraded class.” Neither tho American par
ty, nor the American people will be terrified into
any cowardly concessions throngh fear of this
danger, even if it were real. But such was not
the condition of the Helots. They were con
fined to one of the small States of Greece (Lace
daemon) not much larger than some ofthe larger
counties of Georgia, and were in the condition
of the most abject slavery. They were all
Greeks of the same race (the Dorian) As their
masters. They spoke one language. They
were the only agricultural, and the only mechAn-
ical class, citizens being forbidden all mechani
cal trades. Their number was five times that
of their masters, and foe country so small that
it could be traversed from ono extremity to an
other in a single day. To plan a revolt and
act in concert was therefore easy.
Tho whole population of Lacedaemon is set
down at 270,000, little more than one-fonrth
that of Georgia. Of that number 5 ont of 6 or
225,000 were abject slaves with bnt 45,000
“ severe masters!"
Upon the occurrence of an earthquake
which loft “only five houses, standing in Spar
ta, that wretched multitude excluded from all
participation in the prosperity of their country
began to fnnnd hopes on its distress: a proposal,
obscurely made, was rapidly communicated
and the Helots assembled from various parts
with one purpose of putting their severe masters
to death, and making tho country their own.
Tho Lacedaemonians singularly roady in the
use of nrms, were singularly helpless in almost
every other business. Deprived o/thkiR SLAVES
thoy wore nearly deprived of the means of sub
sistence; agriculture stopped." The render can
not fail to observe the glaring contrast between
the condition of the Helots, and that of the
foreigners in our country.
Tho foreigners here are diffused over a conti
nent. They are not of one race, they speak
various languages, they n-o not tho only agri
cultural ana mechanical class. Thoir pursuits
are of their own cboioo and of evory variety.
Instead of boing five to ono they are less
than one in five of tho whole population, and
lastly and above alt thoy are free and not stares.
In view of alt these striking points of differ
ence, there is not tho slightest ground for our
taking nlarm at the revolt of tho llolots, which
after all was not successful. Thero is no anal
ogy in tho condition of the Helots of Lncedro
mon and that of foreigners here, to warrant a
draft upon their history for our instruction.
The truth is. and it hns struck tho gront heart
of our Republic, this question of immigration
has assumed an importance from its vast
amount nnd changed character, which was
Hover Anticipated by the founders of onr gov.
ernmont. A state of things tho most extraor
dinary has ar son, for which they mudo no pro
vision, nnd which challenges tho attention of
tho philosopher, the statesman and patriot.
They come no longer as formerly in pursuit of
eivil and religious liberty, nnd prepared to en
counter difficulties, hardships nnd dangers for
its attainment. There is no longer the satno
pressure of tyranny goading them from
dangers staring them in foe face. It has be
come,*as Mr/Stephens says, simply an “Exodas
of the excess of population from the Old to foe
New World.” It ean be compared to nothing
in history but the movement of the North
ern hordes upon Southern Europe in foe
first oenturies of tho Christian era, in
pursuit of a more genial clime better lands
and more abundant food. An
excessive population, it brings us for that
very reason hoards of paupers, thousands
of criminals, and, as a general rule, foe lower
grades of every various race and nation on the
earth. It is making our land a Babel of many
tongues, without unity of character, or a peon-
liar and distinctive literature, ora well defined,
vigorous and genuine Amerioan Policy. The
Exodns, instead of being checked, is encoura
ged by'demagogues of national reputation, nnd
ambitious rather to rule than serve their country.
It is unsottiing foe just and natural ratio be*
twoen the amount of labour and capital. The
labouring nnd mechanical classes of onr citizens
at the North have felt this, and are beginning to
understand this consequence of foe Exodns.
Hence they have been, as Mr. Stephens admits,
among the earliest, if not the very first to
move in this great practical question. It is to
this Exodas they are indebted for the depress-
ion of wages, the enhanced price of food,
strikes, mobs and many of the isms of foe very
worst character.
We an* told by Mr. Stephens that to extend
the period from five to twenty-one years before
citizenship should be granted, wonld not stop
immigration. The Exodns wonld still go on.
He does not say that it wonld not be cheeked
to some extent. There is cantion in this way
of stating bis ease. If, as he says, it would
still go on, so rapidly that “at the end of the
first twenty-one years,” “we should have seve
ral millions” of them in onr midst, we may
conclude that the Exodus is not one In pursuit
of liberty as Mr. Stephens defines it—or that
they have much dread of becoming what he
calls “ a degraded caste in society, a species of
serfs without the just franchise of a freeman or
the needful protection due to a slave. In a
word it is not an Exodus in pursuit of Liberty,
or to avoid degradation and slavery ! We want
no snch Exodas to poar ont its tides, npon onr
shores, without making provision for the parity
of onr institutions. The franchise of an Ameri
can freeman shonld not be precipitately and.
rashly extended to those who have not horror
enough for degradation and slavery to be even
diverted from onr shores to some other portion
of this vast and sparsely peopled continent,
where there is ample room and verge enough
for indefinite expansion.
As to the opening of a sort of white stave
trade at foe North, which Mr. Stephens seems
to think wonld arise from the measures propo.
sed by the American Party, it is enough to say
that it is a mere conceit,—a fancy, a dream of
a disturbed and feverish imagination, “ as base
less as the fabric of a vision.” Capitalists are
more likely to want voting than “votingless”
employees, for the simple reason that capitalists
have political objects which voting employees
can aid them to accomplish. Northern Capi
talists. we all know, have been clamorous for
protective tariffs, and they have generally got
the votes of their employees, who were persna*
ded that by protecting foe Capitalists, their
wages would be increased. Besides, it is not
foe Capitalists that are moving in tbis matter,
bnt the “labourers and employees." Tbis is
strange, if “a votingless population to do their
work” be, as asserted, " wbat foe would-be-
Lords of.that section have been wanting for a
long time.’"
The attack npon the secrecy of foe Order
occupies a pretty conspicuous place in foe cat
alogue of Mr. Stephens' objeetions. After pro
fessing "most truly” that he “really knows
nothing about the principles aims or objects of
the party be is about to speak of” he should
have confined himself to this single ground of
objection. He has not done so, bat has spoken
at great length of principles objects and aims
imputed to them whether truly or not he does
not profess to know. As it regards secrecy it is
well known that both the old parties have long
been controlled most despotically, by a few lea
ders, who admitted very few of the rank and
file into a knowledge of their secret objects and
aims. Constituting themselves a sort of po
litical priesthood, they have dwelt apart in foe
inner temple, from which they have scrupulous
ly excluded the vulgar herd. Sitting thus be
hind the veil, their chief care has been to in*
culcate npon their respective followers the duty
of implicit faith in the doctrines they delivered,
a ready c< mpliance with all (Aetr requirements,
nnd a prompt obedience to all their commands,
all made, delivered and given in the name, ana
for the sake of Party—that is of themselves.
They have been Baal and bowed to so long, that
it will doubtless go hard with them to reverse
their position and bow to Baal! Each set, next
to obedience nnd service to themselves, inculca
ted upon its followers hatred and opposition to
tho other. These political Jesuits who have
thus been secretly lording it over the people
and keeping them dirided npon all questions,
even those affecting their most vital interests,
are the especial enemies of all secret orders!
Of all but their own they doubtless are. And
thongh they never agreed in any thing else,'
not even in defence of their own section—they
will combine now to encounter, and if possible
to crash an organization, one of whose cardinal
objects is to reform foe abuses they have estab*
lished, and unite a people they have alienated
and divided into waring factions—not parties.
If the now organization in its infancy, while
yet in the gristle, had developed itself fully to
their view who does not see that they wonld
have crashed it out of existence, for foe obvious
reason that the reforms aimed at wonld be fatal
to their power? Bat what is the extent of this
horrible secrecy? How does Mr. Stephens,
or any other as ignorant as he admits himself
to be npon the subject, know but that within this
new reform party the humblest of its members
is admitted to a foil knowledge of all its coun
sel, and to participate freely npon terms of
perfect equality in all its deliberations and ac
tion ? How does he or any man know but that
in this respect it presents a perfect contrast to
the old secret, log-rolling, intriguing, wire
working and corrupt organizations, with their
Regencies, cliques and leaders? Holding pow
er in the old organizations, they want no
chango, and least of all snch change as we
wonld bring them. From the day when the
hypocritical Pharisee and pampered priests of
Judea, sneeringly asked—“can any good thing
come out of Nazareth” down tothishouf, Wheta
Mr. Stephens tauntin'’ly inquires whence comes
this new organization, the beneficiaries of all
old and corrupt organizations political and re
ligions, have everywhere been the bitterest
enemies of ail reformation. Tho “thousands
of good and true men in Georgia” and else*
whero, who have gone, and the “thousands
more” who will yet co into this new reforttt
organization, expected and are prepared to en
counter foe florco opposition of those enemies
and tbeir folowers. Bnt the people are pre
pared, nay, they pant for emancipation from the
despotism of lenders. They aro tired of their
imperious rulo and insolent dictation.
But tho American party doos not conceal Its
principles, its aims, or its objeots. Long ago,
and in various places they havo proclaimed
them. In Virginia and N- York tbeir platforms
have been published and widely diffused.
Thoso of the party evory whcrei will bo found
to harmonlzo with them upon all leading points.
They are for a strict construction of the consti
tution and a rigid observance of its limitations
of power. They regard tho faithful execution
of tho laws passed for giving effect to its pro
visions, as essential to the ponce harmony nnd
perpetuity of the Union, They are for serti
pulousiy respecting tho sovereignty nnd reserv
ed rights of tho States. Mr. Stephens’ seal
against abolitionism seems to be wnxing warm.
Perhaps be, Cobb nnd Senator Toombs will
head tho fire-eating column, and "hi the Mis
sourians in subjugating Kansas and Nebraska
and driving out Piorce’s free-soil Governor,
nnd his abolition immigrants. When they be
gin to work to aet, somo of us may be induced
talk of sotne of them upon It former occasion
Thera ie another class caid to be proscribed
by the Amerioan Party. That class is foe
Catholics. Mr. Stephens il opposed to unifying
religion into politics or politics into religion.
So is fo» American parte) and it carries its opposi
tion to Catholic* no farther than to decline to vote
for them or appoint them to office. It grounds
Exodus of j this upon foe conviction that Catholicism is of
' dangerous political proclivities and tendency.
It proposes no legal test to incapacitate foe
Catboiiea for holding office. It will discounten
ance and oppose aU interferences with tbeir
freedom of religion and worship—all attempts
to molest or disturb them in foe free exercise ot
their religions forms and ceremonies and ekfcf*
cises. It does not propose to compel them to
circulate the Bible among their lay-members,
or interfere with them, even in the education
of their children, thongh that is a matter of pub
lic concern, in which foe whole country, and
all good men do feel a deep interest.
Men are to be judged, says Mr. Stephens, by
their "acts," and not by their "creed." If melt
are sincere and honest in their creeds, foe ereeds
are the very rules of their ttetiom. Knowing
the creeds we may calculate what their acta
will be under them. There can be no donbt
that Mr. Stephens himself, has habitually acted
for or against men of whose individual acta he
knew bot little, because of tbeir creed. Does
any man believe Mr. Stephens has brer failed
to oppose a demrerat, no matter what his acts
may have been. Has It not been bis general
rale, for many years to vote for men holding
foe whig, and against those holding foe dem
ocratic creed in politics? About foe time of
the late Presidential election, it Wax very gen
erally admitted that General Pierce’s acts as a
politician were as'sound especially upon foe
slavery question as those of any man north of
Mason Jk Dixon's line. Bnt his creed was dem
ocratic ‘and Mr. Stephens is generally believed
to have Voted against bim. Even now while
foe Democracy are landing Pierce for his fidel
ity to foe Sontb Mr. Stephens approves (as I do)
the condnet of foe people of Kansss'in driving
from the connfry " the Free-soil Governor
(Reeder) whom Mr. Pierce sent out there
TO PREVENT” THE INTROtotTCTION OP SLAVERY
To avoid all misconception I will insert foe
whole of the sentence in which Mr. Stephens
makes this grave charge against onr sound,
national democratic President, whom all foe
world was for. except some reTy rieid and
“ gallant old whigs” when he Was elected, and
nearly all foe world against now, except sortie
equally rigid and gallant old democrats.—
“ Kansas in two elections under this law” (tbo
Kansas and Nebraska Bill) has shown that an
overwhelming majority of her people are in
favor of slavery, notwithstanding all the
EXECtmNE INPLUENCE OP THE PREE-SOIL GOV
ERNOR (Reeder) whom Mr. Pierce sent out
there to prevent it; bnt whom foe people
have lately driven, as they ought to have done,
from foe country.”
They prevented it notwithstanding some
thing else besides this free-soil Governor. They
did it in spite of the squatter sovereignty
prature of the Knnsn* and Nebraska hill, the
“ secret blade of Joab” revealed by Mr. Ste
phens. It was not the work of yonr PRFSH-
LY imported foreigners who had only de
clared thetr intention, and yet were empowered
to vote there, upon a question affecting foe
rights of foe whole Sonfo, thongh they never
voted before any where, and conld vote even
then nowhere else! That was the work of foe
gallant people of Missouri, determined to settle
there to defeat foe enterprises of foefree-soil*
ers and abolitionists, aad all their eoadjntore
who Were moving heaven and earth to effect a
lodgement npon her Sontbern borders, and es
tablish there an advanced position in their
great free-soil immigration movement over this
continent.
The party which Mr. Stephens has assailed,
and which other leaders of foe old organiza
tions,doubtless will assail has principles objects,
and aims eminently worthy of a great and pa
triotic party. It will, in its own good time,
and in its own way, proclaim them to the North,
foe South, the East and foe West. Entrench
ing itself npon the firm ground of the const!*
tution strictly construed, and foe sovereignty
and reserved, rights of the States sacredly re
spected, it will contend earnestly to overthrow
the debasing despotism of party, emancipate
foe country from the habitual misrule it has
established, and foe corrupt and demoralizing
practices it has introduced. It will labor with

Give thy thoughts no tongne

Be thou familiar, but by no means vnlgar.

Grapple them to thy sonl with hooks of steel;
Bnt do not dull thy palm with entertainment
Of eOch new hatch’d, nnfledg’d comrade. Be

Of entraneo to a quarrel; bnt, being in,
Bear it that the opposer may beware of thee.
Give every tnrn thine ear, butfew thy voice :
Take each man’s censure, but reserve foy
Costly thy habit as thy parse Can bay,
Bnt not express’d in fancy; rich, nor gaudy;
For the apparel oft proclaims the man;
And they in France, of the best rank and sta

Neither a borrower, nor lender be :
