Upoa that bread platform wa stand, and let
posterity Jodge between ns. Sir, wa do protest
against this religions link between our free Re
public and that Papal throne—a throne nnllke
all others, built upon power, spiritual, political
and religious. A throne which makes mans
slave, and transforms kings into fiends, priests
into tormentors, a people into drones, a country
into* desert. A throne which extinguishes the
fire on the alter of domestic lore, in a form pe-
anHar, total, revolting; Matching its votaries
away from the homage of nature to tea cold
convent, the rapnlaiv# abbey, tba gloomy call
of the anchorite, tba horrid dungeon of toe In-
qufeitfon, and tot demoralising edict of celiba

Sir. in the name of the American people, I
protest against this innovation, which would

a* we know, the reports of withdrawals, made
by onr opponents, are either utterly false or
greatly exsgerated. Some have withdrawn,
bnt what of it? Where is the church that has
not bad some of its members withdraw ? We
wilt venture the assertion that the most popu

lost a greater proportion of its members by their

This paragon of wisdom and oonsistoney, this
pink of perfection, this jewel of many oolors,
assumes the office of Censor and DJotator, and
paaaaa judgment upon men ’a motives and opin
ions and capacities from assumed and felaa
grounds and charges, and spits its vindictive
slobber at the feces of freemen for daring to
think for tf&mselres and to act for their^country.
How cornea the hubbub and excitement through
the land ? Whence oometh toe strife ? Is it
from the American party? Noteo—butitoomes
from those self-eonstitnted supervisors ofthe
afialrs of tbeoonntry, those nice fellows whose
reputation, and bread and chance for office and
personal aggrandisement, depend upon the pre
servation and perpetuation of an old party name
without its reality, and tha rallying to it a ma
jority of supporters. Henee the work of mer
cenaries goes on, hence the falsehood, henoe
the hypocritical cantof “danger, danger,”hence
the cry of “wolf, wolf," thougbout toe country
when there is ^no wolf. Many of these same
men who are now foremost in the crusade
against their fellow citisen, and loudest in their
praise of Foreigners and Catholics and in their
abase of Protestants, were a few months ago
privately approving the position, and speaking
in terms of commendation of tha doctrine of the
American party. But not finding themselves
in very active demand, they are like Milton’s
hero—“rather rale in hell than serve in heaven."
This ery of bugger, bugger, which ever and
anon falls from the lips of agonizing partisans,
comes with a bad grace from a bad source. It
oomes from a suspicious, uncouth, heterogem-
ous compound, upon toe low level of dominion
and spoils at all hazards. The American par
ty is the true friond of religious liberty and con
stitutional freedom, hence its desire to preserve
and perpetuate onr constitution and repub
lican institutions, and to shield them from the
insidious attacks of foreign influence, reckless
politicians, and designing priests.
[For the Courier.]
“This is all truth—
Nay it is ten times true; for truth is truth
To the end of reckoning.”
It is undoubtedly true—That for many years
past, both the old Whig and Democratic parties
have been courting the abolition and foreign
vote, and that the result of this policy baa been
eo to corrupt and abolitionise them at the North
that neither of them can be safely relied upon
by the South for the protection of her rights.
It is undoubtedly true—That, though the ab
olitionists have also songht, and to a degree
succeeded in corrupting the northern wing of
the American party, they are effectually cat off
by the action of the late National American
Council at Philadelphia, and that the ptatform
there adopted embodies the true and genuine
principles of the order.
It is undoubtedly true—That these principles^
despite the violent denunciations of our ene
mies, are eminently correct, sound and na
tional, and so manifestly Southern in spirit
and in eebstance that no unpreju diced State
Rights man can fail to see, to acknowledge
and to feel it.
It is undoubtedly true—That Wilson, Johnson,
and their fellow abolitionists at the North re
tired from, and ore now engaged in denouncing
the American convention at Philadelphbia on
account of its pro-slavery platform, while Hale,
Giddlngs, Greely, Seward, Van Buren and the
like are fonnd battling in the ranks of the old
parties against toe constitutional rights of the
Sooth.
It is undoubtedly true—That the Whig party
is dead or ongbt to be, that toe Democratic ha,
—according to Stephens—got tho “dry rot,” and
soon will be. The old isms having become ab-
solete, little else remains of them save the mere
name, the charm of whioh is sought to be kept
alive by a few leading demagogues, who see
ing the people about to take matters into their
own hands and the spoils ofoffioe about to pass
from them, are moving heaven and earth to de
stroy the American party.
It is undoubtedly true—That a politiaal com
bination has been formed by Cobb, Johnson,
Stephens, and Toombs to control the politico of
Georgia, as they have heretofore done, and that,
despite their Herculean qfforts, the American
sentiment in Georgia is constantly and rapidly-
gaining gronnd.
It is undoubtedly true—That a salaried office
of $2,009 por annum has been created by Gov.
Johnson without any constitutional right or
authority therefor, for the purpose it would seem
of benefiting one R. J. Cowart, a special favor
ite--a man wholly incompetent for snob a po
sition, as evidenced in his management of cer
tain claims against the Road in Tennessee^
whereby the State of Georgia has sustained a
loss of $36,000.
It is undoubtsdly true—That Gov. 'Johnson,
in order to conciliate the favor and obtain the
support of Maj. Mark A. Cooper, has so chang
ed tiie schedule of freight on toe State Road in
fovor of said Cooper, that toe saving to him un
der the new arrangement amounts to a sum of
nearly $8,000.
It is undoubtsdly true—That one John Henry
Lnmpkin, candidate for Congress in this district,
toe man who voted for the Wilmot Proviso, had
a finger in this arrangerne*’ L
In view then, Mr. Editor, of the foregoing
faete, is it not the manifest duty of eveiy true
patriot to oppose Gov. Johnson, Judge Lump
kin, their associate demagogues and the party
tost sustains them, and to corns out boldly and
unflinchingly upon toe great American plat
form, and do battle far fovor ofthe glorions prin
ciples it avows.
Let no true Georgian swerve from bis duty
n this matter. We toil you that toe objects of
tho American Party are good, ita principles aro
right, and who is so blind as not to see the out
rage upon the people in the mansgement ofthe
State Road, not only in the inotanoes above
given, bnt in others whioh oonld be mentioned,
I have been an old democrat, but l sea that the
party iseorrapted by its leaders and that its
aomervatlsm and nationality has doparted, and
that it is being rapidly swallowed np by for
eign an<rabdufon proollvitiei and other noxi
ous elements. These foots are too palpable
to )>e evaded, and no partisan blindness or pro-
judioe of name should be allowed to warp the
Judgment against the plain diotatee of reason
and patriotism.

According to previous notloa a large and re
spectable body ofthe American party assem
bled at the Court-House in this place on the
list Inst On finding that the boose would
not aflbrd room for the aooommodatlon of more
than one half of the people present, the orowd
repaired to the ground near the Academy, where
they were oomfortably seated. The meeting
was organised by calling John B. Dickey to the
chair and requesting Wm. A. Campbell to not as
Secretary. On motion P. D. Chaiborne arose
stated the objeot of the meeting, after which be
prooeeded to read the National Platform, re
cently adopted at Philadelphia; also toe plat
form lately adopted by the State Coonoil of
Georgia.
T. J. Treadaway, Esq., offered the following
resolutions whioh wore adopted without a die
•anting voice:
1. Resolved, That friends ofthe Amerioan
party here assembled, do most cordially ap
prove and endorse the platform of principle*
adopted by the National Council, recently held
in Philadelphia. Believing that prosperity and
safety of onr common country, and toe onion
of these Statesdepend upon the success of these
principles, we do pledge to oar brethren through
out tho State our most sealous co-operation in
their behalf, and appeal to every friend of the
American party to aid us in securing their com
plete and triumphant success.
2. Resolved. That the thanks of the Ameri
cas party of this State*are duo its delegates to
the National Council, for the seal and ability
displayed in the performance of their duty, and
and in defense of the principles^ the party.
3. Resolved, That we folly and most cordial
ly approve of the platform reoeotly adopted by
the State Counoil of Georgia, held in Macon ;
and that we most heartily concur in the nomi
nation of Garnett Andrews as the standard
bearer of the American party in the ensuing
Gubernatorial, campaign.
i Resolved, That inasmuch as iho Ameri
can party has been grossly and falsely misrep
resented by certain political demagogues, whoso
course we condemn as not only unmanly and
ungenerous, but as entirely inconsistent with
every principle of justice and reason. We most
solemnly deprecate and denounce snoh party
leaden as ntterly unfit and unqualified for office
aud unworthy of our confidence and support,
while we respect those who honestly differ with
us in political sentiment, and who are willing
to meet ns fairly.
Mr. Treadaway then prooeeded to address
the meeting on various points of interest in a
forcible and impressive manner, depicting dan
gerous effects of foreign influence and Roman
Catholicism.
On motion the meeting a^jonrned.

Americanism in Alabama.—George D.

tors. James E. Belser, formerly a Demoeratio
representative In Congress from the Montgome

platform of the American party. C. K. Brad

The order of the Pope of Rome to Arohbishop

an extract from toe fetter of Popo Pins to John

America. Governments and States are
tottering here Every thing Is uncertain.

swept all away, fly good Archbishop, I
look to yon for the future. SPREAD RO-

UCA1I1SH. The Church may before a

The Charleston News seems disposed to ac
cept the American Platform, as adopted in
Philadelphia. The editor says:
" Bnt it is not true that tha Ameriorn Plat
form will not command the support of true
men in the great Middle Stotos. It has already
the largest strength over any other in New
York, Pennsylvania, Delaware, New Jersey,
and probably Ohio. Ita strength at the South
is rapidly being assured. These elements will
secure a Constitutional Union, or will bring
the causes of Disunion to a direct Issue. In
either oventthe South will be the gainer,”

REPLY OF JUDGE ANDREWS.
Washington, July 10th, 1855.
Hon. Washington Poe, Chairman, Ac.
Dear Sin i—Tbo above letter was received
at Montvale Springs, in Tennessee, where I
bad gone for the benefit of my health. I bad
ordered my correspondence from home to bo
forwarded to me at that point, and received it
by the same mail, that brought yours, but as
the recaption was in the same hour of my de
parture for home, no sufficient opportunity was
given for answering en route. After reading
the eorreapondence, whioh had accumulated
during my absouce, I have taken the first mo
meat to answer your communication. So
much, sir, on account of what might, to you
and other friends, appear an indifference to my
position, if unexplained.
I apprehend it ia known to yon, that before
tho nomination mentioned in your communica
tion, I bad very positively declined the honor,
whioh I had reason to believe might be ten
dered me by the Maoon Convention. The
main reason for refusal was a desire that an
organisation should bo effected under what is
known as the Columbus movement, whioh I
hoped would convene, and as I advised my
friends, nominate another. I trusted, by this
time, there would have been suoh developments
as would justify me in an effort to consummate
my original wishes. But I discover from tho
newt of the day, and other sources, that no or
ganisation under the Columbus movement will
likely take place, or, if it should, be of suoh
magnitude as to supereede the one whose com
mittee man you are. As the Democratic party
had previously, by refusal to join in the Co
lumbus, movement, deprived it of the power
of assuming toe attitude of anything like State
unanimity, and as the joining in such organiza
tion might have had the appearance of a disban
ding of the Amerioan Party in Georgia, aad as
it might have foiled to pass a Resolution that I
might consider a sine qua non, it is perhaps
wise that no affiliation fins taken plaoe other
than wbat appears in one of toe resolutions of
your Convention. Duly imprersed with the
responsibility of refusing so high an honor,
tendered by ao large and respectable a body
of men as the American Party, I could not ex
cuse myself for declining the same without
very weighty, not to say irrisistible reasons;
and the rather, as I think there are some why
I should not decline, of such magnitude as not
to be disregarded or overruled. One of which
is, that my declension might embarrass, possibly
occasion, or have the appearance of, a disor
ganization of the American Party in Georgia.
The ataement of a few facts will make manifest
the importance of tho continuance, and success
ful continuance of this party in Georgia.
In tbo Convention of 1850 the State declared
in the paper known as the Georgia Platform,
among other things, that she “would, and ought
to resist, even (as a last resort) to a disruption
of every tie which bound her to the Union,
any refusal (by Congress) to admit as a State
any territory toereafrer applying, because of
toe existence of slavery therein.” Kansas
territory will soon apply for admission into the
Union as a slave State. It is stated by Gov.
Johnson in his Into letter of acceptance, that
“the united cohorts of Freesoilera and Ab
olitionists under”—what he chooses to style—
“ the black banner of Know Nothingiam,” (but
really under the unpopular influence at the
North of the Nebraska and Kansas bill,) “have
eleotod to the next Congress a controlling ma
jority”
If the state of facts now existing shall con
tinue when Kansas makes application for ad
mission into the Union, she most bo rejected
under this controlling majority; and toon a
disruption of every tie which binds Georgia to
the confederacy will inevitably take place.
The decree bas gone forth, as proclaimed by
toe State in her Convention of 185". Has Gov.
Johnson or the Democratic party told us of any
escape from the crisis, so certainly pending?
Have they devised any ? or are they seeking
any? We oonnotadmit the unrelenting war
waging through the Southern States, to subject
all to the iron rule ef Democracy, to be such.
For if every voter in their borders were to bow
the knee to its banner and turn to St. Tam
many, in devotion, it would not add another
vote to the yeas when the bill for the admission
of Kansas shall be put upon its passage; for
the Southern vote, under whatever name, now
is, and always will be a unit in its fovor.
The war raginst againg the National Ameri
can Party, lately organized at Philadelphia to
bring the needed aid from the North whence
only it can be had, is anything else than an
effort to meet toe crisis awaiting Kansas, and
which we are approaching with the sleepless
tread of time- We have had much figuring,
showing how the Democratic party has voted,
bnt none bow it will be able and willing to vote.
Others more patriotio or vigilant, seeing the
old Whig party defunct, the Demoeratio power
less—and the Abolitionists and Freesoilera with
a controlling majority in the next Congress,
have combined in organising a new party—
the American—with the hope that it possesses
principles of nationality equal to the exigen
cies of the important occasion. The unpopu
larity of the Nebraska and Kansas bill which,
like an avalanche, swept over the North, over
topping horse and rider, “Captain and cattle,”
diminishing and corrupting all parties has left
toe fate of the admission of Kansas at the
mercy of the freesoii power.
The Amerioan Party lately assembled at
Philadelphia, after purging itself of its freesoii
element, among other things, resolved, that
Congress possessed no power under the consti
tution to exclude any State from admission into
the Union because its constitution docs or does
not recognise the institution of slavery as 8
part of its sooial system. Here is an accession
of strength against that controlling majority
deprecated by Gov. Johnson. If the Demo
cratic party were desirous of the admission of
Kansas as a slave State, instead of endeavoring
to crush, would they not cherish this new, and
we hope, efficient ally against the common foe ?
—Would they not feel a sympathy for it on ac
count of this part of their platform? Though
the American and Demoeratio parties cannot,
on account of their old prejudice aud new prin
ciple, affiliate, yet the admission of Kansas as
a slave State depends on their combined action
against “ the cohorts,” when the final contest
shall arrive. For when the vote shall be taken
on that measure, nod the Democracy shall be
found too weak, (as they will, according to the
admission of Gov. Johnson,) the nays will have
it, unless help come from some other quarter.
Are they unwilling to have it though it be not
a Demoeratio vote? Are they unwilling the
country should be saved unless saved Demo
cratically and Democratically only? Is De
mocracy the primary and the country the se
condary good? When wo shall be easting
about for the election of a President who will
not veto toe bill, if passed, and shall find mate
rial sufficient for the purpose, if combined, it
will be the duty, then, as now, of every patri
ot to throw no obstacle in the way of so impor
tant a consummation. Whatever irreconcilable
hostility there may be on other points, on this
vital beyond all others, every patriot should
cherish that sympathy, on the exercise of
which, in the hour of trial may depend the
fate of untold millions.—And what is the atti
tude of the Amerioan and Demoeratio parties,
now, on this view of the matter? Tbo former
gives ita approbation aud sympathy to tho lat
ter, when its fidelity to the South deaervea it.
The Democracy seek to orush this new party

conclusive settlement of that subject, in spirit
and substanoe.” Are Kansas and the Union
of so little cousoquence as ’to depend on toe
reasons on which toe resolve was given,though
immaterial for ourporporo? Must the fate of
this country be periled on too' difference be
tween tweedle-dum and tweedle-dee? And
that by a party which in its last Baltimore Con
vention, doclared, without approving in express
terms, tbstjthey 'would abide by and! adhere to
tho faithful execution of the acts known as
tha roompromise measures." And this by a
party professing to stand on the Georgia plat
form, which, in speaking of the sets of Congress
on the compromise measures, declares, that
whilst the Statft of Georgia does not wholly
approve “ trill abide, by it aa a permanent ad
justment of this sectional controversy.” And
this bv a party, when California waa applying
for admission did not approve the principle
that a State should come into tho Union with
or without slavery, (aa provided in the Nebsska
and Kansas bill,) but ware ready for a disrup
tion to maltain snob disapproval. Sometimes
they criticise the platform of the American
Party, baoausa It .pretermits tha expression of
any opinion upon tha power of Congress to es
tablish or prohibit slavery, though it is the
sense of the national council that it ought not
to legislate upon the subject in the territories.
And tola by a party which, a few short months
ago, was ready to sot fire to tha four corners
of the confoderacy, if Congress did not legis
late on the unbjeet of slavery in the territories,
by repealing the Mexican laws prohibiting the
introduction of slaves into the territory acqui
red from that power. And this by a party
which voted for Mr. Yan Buren for President
though from the lights before him be preter-
mitted the expression of any opinion as to the
power of Congress to legislate upon the subject
of slavery in the Distriet. I know that prin
ciples aro of the highest importance, but here
tha resolve is all we need, let it eome from wbat
motive it may.
The inferynce from all such criticisms is,
that Kansas may be rejected and the Union
dissolved, unless we esn obtain votes on a prin
ciple we know ia impossible and to us imma
terial. A party which thus cavils on tba ninth
part of .a-hair may possibly desire the admis
sion of Kansas, bnt that desire most be very
weak that is weighed against a quibble. It
looks significant of the small value they place
upon tha Union.
Tha philosophy of organizing new parties
consists in too selection of a platform of prin
ciples that will be acceptable to a majority of
the nation, if possible; and tboagh each may
not be acceptable to all, yet for the sake- of
some favorite principle, every member of the
party will adopt tbo platform as a whole. Just
aa in deliberative assemblies, a constitution or
a bill may not be acceptable in eveiy section,
possibly to any one member; yet for toe sake
of the measure as a whole, or for some favorite
section, a majority may be content to adopt the
whole measure. So toe Northern portion of
tbe Amerioan party, suffering under tbe griev
ances of foreign influence, arc wilting to adopt
the whole platiurm, the slavery question inclu
ded, perhaps not so much for its own sake as
for toe section concerning tho amendment of
the N&taralUation Laws. In these new isanes,
we have none of those old prejudices nor hos
tilities to encounter, which would bo in tbo
way of making converts to an old party.
Since the manifestations of such indiscrimin
ate hostility by the Democracy, to this, the only
means of obtaining strength for their votes on
the slavery question that have been before Con
gress, in charity I had supposed they were
given Jkftinjapre motives of justice and fidelity
to theBoutaJout the present indication are, that
unless aid can be had through the Demoeratio
party, it will not bo acceptable. The wish seems
to be for Demoeratio rather than Sontoern
strength. The reluctance that one might well
have felt, at being fonnd in opposition to a party,
right in so important a matter, tbrongh wrong
in other, ia more than neutralized at the hnmil-
iatieg discovery.
Tbe American Party ent loose from, and sent
howling to their dens, at tbe North, the aboli
tion members of their body—tbe. first time, I
believe, that a ■ party has, in convention, separ
ated from and publicly repudiated a part of its
body, for nnsonndness on the slaveiy question.
The Democratic Party still cherish in their
ranks tbe Van Burens, Kings, and forty-three
members of Congress who voted against the Ne-
braska-Kansas bill, and through ita President
—(who too often gives bis platforms to tbe Sontb
and bis acts to the Northj—pat under tbe ban,
Dickingson, Bronson and otberof the hard-shell
Democracy, tbe most uncompromising and reli
able friends the South ever had beyond the
Potomac; proving “false alike to the friends
who served, as well aa toe foes who would have
spared them.”
It has been objected that the sound portion
of the American Party North is too insignifi
cant in nnmbers to be relied on for support.—
If not already so, from present indications it
may, by tbe time Kansas applies for admission,
be more numerous than the sound Democracy
North. Bnt it matters not whether it may be ten
or thirty. One vote may decide the question
upon which the fate of millions man depend.
It boing admitted that if the Kansas bill pas
ses, it must be by an accession of Northern
votes, tbe question constantly recurs, now can
they be had ? The Demoeraey, aa admitted by
Gov. Johnson; and as show by tbe vote on toe
Nebraska Kansas bill, when forty three joined
tbe Freesoilera, is a decaying party, and likefcbe
old Whigs, consuming nnder tbe intense heat of
popular indignation generated by the odious
ness of that measure at the North. If notwith
standing their old Demoeratio prejudices anti
discipline, they desert by scores, we cad hardly
expect recruits, even by units. If these old
Demooratic principles are so exhausted as not
only to be unable to attract new members, but
to bold the old ones, it ia worse than hopeless
to expect accessions from such a drained source.
Indeed I don't understand the party as expect
ing any new recruits from that qnarter. Then
we must try new issues, new attractions, and
new powers of cohesion.
The American Party are tauntingly asked, if
the Georgia Platform is satisfactory to them,
why not join tbe Democracy, who have already
taken their stand upon it. We objeet first, that
they have only squatted on one corner of it (the
fourth resolution) aa a possessory title to too
whole, fearing at the same time to occupy other'
grounds very important to the old Union men of
Georgia. Besides, those who fought a principle
as long aa there was hope of conquest, are not
safe depositories of its guardianship. And this
is being made manifest by the indifference, sot
to say unwillingness, as I bave shown, to arrtst
a crisis which must bring abont a dieruption of
tbe Confederacy. Those who, a few years since,
thought toe admission of a State with such ins
titutions aa she might choose to adopt concern
ing Slavery, a good cause for disruption, but
now hold a restriction upon her discretion like
wise a good case for similar action wonld seem to
bo looking only for an occasion or excuse for
dissolution, regardless ofthe cause.
Those who fought to maintain toe principles
of the Georgia Platform, can have bnt little of
toe “gall of bitterness,” not to foel indignant at
seeing their enemies in that contest bestride it,
and chiding its conctraetora as less holy than
they, with a self-complacency equalled only by
a certain notorious individual, of whom we rend
in tbe 18th chapter and lltb verse of St. Lnke.
It wonld better suit their fallen state, to be con
fessing that they “had done the things they
ought not to have done, and left undone the
things they should have done,” and that there
was no true worthiness in them. The present
occupants havo not been upon it long enough to
be naturalized They are not only aliens but
alien enemies, who seem endeavoring to expel
its earlier friends from possession, as tbo oat-
landisb millions are crowding us and onr chil
dren from our Western Territory. Lot “Aster-
erieans rule America,” and tried Georgia Plat
form men rule Georgia.
Having examined toe questions on which the
Democratic and American parties seem to agree,
I may on some future oecasion notice those on
which they are avowedly hostile.
I approve the platform of too Amerioan Par
ty, adopted at Maoon, on the 27th of June, 1855,
and with it tbe platform of principles adopted
by the late National Counoil of the Amerioan
Party at Philadelphia, and the Georgia Plat
form of 1850, aa ladieatiog the right policy ia
the avont of the contingencies therein montion-
And with a due appreciation of the honor in
volved ia too nomination mentioned in your
letter, I aoeopt it with a high, not to say pain
ful, sense of the responsibilities incurred by my
position. According to a late and much to be
regretod innovation, one of those responsibili
ties might seem to be a general canvass of tbe
Siato. As you know, sir, the nomination was
imposed upon me after my refusal to aeeept, I
might well plead this a reason why I should be
excused from this disagreeable labor. I fear,
however, I have one of a more imperative na
ture. For souurtimo past, I have been afflicted
with an infirmity of voiee occasioned by a life
of hard speaking, whioh Iapprehenend will fail
to sustain me in canvassing the State.
Yery respectfully yours,
GARNETT ANDREWS.
