The rallying ery of the foreign party, la
Cherokee, Georgia, during the campaign just
closed was Democracy! Jtietwgf Dxmoc-
Utvlil As for as we heard, othavs been able
to learn from reliable reports, the harangues
of the demagogical hirelings of the State Bond
autocracy and, the tinkers of the rotary, in
speaking of their own party, when stripped of
their gew-gndrs and superfluities amounted to
about the following, vis: “Democracy, Demoo.
rac.v, Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Jaekson
AND DEMOCRACY." When speaking of tho
American party they would sum up—bat we
Stop—care in right here; It eranld ha impossi
ble to report them without first making a cata
logue of aB Iks terms of vituperation, abuse
and vilifies te n found In Webster’s unabridged
from « to hoard. If there la anything dis
graceful, dishonorable, treasonable or anti
republican, that this party had not been char
ged with it would be a curiosity indeed. But
these things bare folfilled their mission; they
succeeded in deceiving the people and have
secured their object—the publio plunder. .
But so* is the time for the people to take
the “second saber thought* Let the people
u * calmly and deliberately take a to consider
ation the issues between the parties, and sea if
msuy of them have not been deceived. This
word Demieracy which has been so much har
ped open, aa far as its application to this coun
try is concerned, is a mere attraction, which

racy t? a ToVpj of government in which the su-
prente power is U'dged in the hands of the peo
ple coUectirtly, or In which the people exercise
tbe pc trees of legislation. Athens, one of the
ancient Grecian States, with an extent of ter»_

only example, in the world’s history, of this
fora of go rename nt The tact that it requires
all the people to meet at one place and vote
directly for tbe laws proposed, precludes the
possibility of its ever being adopted in this, or
say ctbor country of extended territory. But
it may be urged, these demagogues donot advo
cate the adoption of a principle so absurd—very
true—but wbmt do they adtsexto what princi
ples of State policy hare they presented to the
people of Georgia in the recent contest ?
The above definition of De mocracy Is the
literal name, but in this country, in common
parlances, the word has esme to mean (a govern,
meat in which all classes of citizens have
equal rights and privileges.) But until this
msaning ia entirely s misnomer, when applied
to the party in Georgia claiming to be Demo

the best men, but it is aa Oligarchy of the

Floyd, relying upon the truth of the prlueiples
they have enunciated, the wisdom of the poliey
they have advocated,and the justice, importance
and patriotism of the great otyects they have in

save those of honor and patriotism as unneces

On Tuesday, too Ifith Inst, a largo number
of the members of the American Party assem
bled at the Coart Iloase in Home for the pur
pose o( making nominations for tbe county offi
ces snd for transacting any other business that
might properly come before tbe Meeting; The
convention was organized by calling Judge
Gabriel Joses to the chair and electing M.
Dwin-rll Secretory.
Tbe objects of the meeting were explained by
VT. K. Alexander, Esq,, and on motion, the
President appointed the following gentlemen,
a committee to report resolutions: Col. 8-
louche’, W. R. Alexander, Esq:, D. R. Mitchell,
K»q., Judge G. S. Black and Edward Ware.
During tbe absence of tbe committee Dr,
Miller entertained tbe meeting with one of bis
felicitous highly interesting speeches in which
he expressed foil confidence In tbe jnstice,
patriotism and political wisdom embodied in
tbe principles of tbe American Party and
firm conviction of their final triumph. He
alluded at some lenghth to tbe persecution and
proscription practiced by Gov. Johnson, both
before and since tbe election,*in hunting down
and turning out every man, in the employment
of the State Road, who .had the manliness and
independence io express opposition to his ad
ministration. In his opinion tbe Governor is
especially censurable for. the vindictiveness,
shown towards Rev.C. W. Howard, by remo
ving, tbe switch at bis lime works, by which this
gentleman sustains slogs, in the depreciation
of the value of- his property, of some twenty
thousand dollars.
The committee, through tbeir chairman, Col.
FoudbV, reported tbe following resolutions
wLiah were unanimously adopted:
Resolved 1, That the American Party of
7th, That in our judgment the State Connell
ought to bo convened at Mtilcdgeville, at ions
convenient time duriug .the present winter to
take such action as may bo necessary to advance
the interests of tbe party, and prepare it for effi
cient action in the approaching Presidential
campaign.
8th, That we approve of the action taken by
some of the councils of this county and through
out the State in abolishing the secrecy and ob
ligations of, tbe order, believing as we do,
that the present circumstances of the party no
longer require their continuance.
9th, That this meeting proceed by ballot to
nominate candidates for Ordinary, Clerk 8. C.,
Clerk L C., Sheri$ Tax Collector, Tax Re
ceiver, C. 8* and Treasurer, and Coroner, and
that a majority of the whole number of votes
cast be necessary to a choice.
10, That we denounce the conduct of H. V.
Johnson in using the State Road to reward and
boy up partisans before the election, and espe
dally for the petty despotism of remoring tbe
switch at Rev. C. W. Howard's lime works in
Cass since the election, probably as a punish
ment for that gentleman’s course in politics—as
disgraceful to him both as a man and as a mag
istrate.
On motion‘the Secretary was directed to fur
nish the Courier and HilledgavQle Recorder a
copy of the proceedings of this meeting for pub
lication.
The convention then proceeded in accordance

I ase an article taken-from the Montgomery
Advertiser, repnbUs&ed in too last “Souther-

which there are thirteen Items sot forth as
“Democratic creed." •
No. 1 reads that—“Equal and exact Justice
to all mm qf whatever Slate or pertna*on, reli~

Will to* Southerner tell the people whether
or not tola ia thadootrina. in which he and the
Johnson Democracy of Georgia believe -and
practice, or whether or not in Georgia, it is
only a mear abstract item of taitof And whe
ther or not this cardinal item, has or has not—
been folly, truly and faithfully carried oat, in
the removal of‘all and every individnol, officer,

bad political* independence enough to. vote at

does .the editor not know that this .has been
done? Or did he advocate it or does ha ap
prove of it? . ‘
And does he think It is ft honest and faith-
tol execution of this cardinal item; because
the Rev. Mr. Howard refused to rote for John-
•on and made an Amerlohn speech at Kingston,
before- the election; that Howard should first
be refused to have any oars brought or left qn
the switch at his lima manufactory, that ha
might send off his lime,—then the switch torn
np and abolished, and Howard’s property there
by depreciated in Talae, nt least $20,000—and
now competed to haul bis lime and hydmullo
cement several miles to Kingston, or his mann-
factory be broken up and with it Mr. Howard;
when the State Road and the torn np switch
are in a few steps of lime kiln ? Does not the
editor think all this ie for toe good of the conn-
try ? Does he nottoink that it was an outrage
that Mr. Howard should make an American
speech and have the daring impudence to vote
against Johnson? Does he not think in the
honest and faithful execution of the above
cardinal item of Democratic faith, Mr. How-
ard (considering tbe magnitude of his offences
onght to have had bis switoh torn np, and his

true democratic retribution for the foal offences*
with which thoso scamps on the Rail Road bad

“Tbe Grand Jury of toe present week wonld

ion, that something like a saddlebags grocery
baa been kept by tbe Superior Court of this

bles without a license; wherefore we caonot

exonerate tbe Court from a knowledge even of

The particular constable we have thus conclu
ded to canonize and hand bis deeds of consum
mate effrontery and shame down to future con
stables, as a well-marked instance of wilful
contempt of Court. We did not see the liquor,
but we did see tbe ruddle-bags, and it is the de
liberate opinion of this Jury, that no other
Judge oversaw a pair of saddlebags as much
like a jug of brandy before, for they smelt like
tbe jug had been broken. Now, a constable ia
quite a small appendage of the Conrt any bow,

Religious Prosciption There is no charge
S inst toe American Party more preposterous
n the charge of. proscription on account of
religion*opinions. Thafundameotal principles
of Popery are essentially despotie. and toe su
perstitious element that is mixed with tow sys
tem, instead of relieving it of. odinm, only
makes toe system more dangerous and destruc
tive. Tbe American party ia politically oppo--
sed to papists because it is opposed to political
Popery. Tbat Popery ia a political institution
is sufficiently admitted by our opponents when
they assail Protestant ministers for mingling in
politics in tbe discussion of Popery. Indeed
our opponents are exceedingly -inconsistent on
this as on many other points. When Protes
tant politicians inveigh against Popery they
are charged with disturbing religion and are
told to leave it to tbe preaekere. When Pro
testant preseberr enveigb against Popery, they
are denounced at onoe as political brawles.
Politicians are ridiculed as preachers. And
preachers are reviled ns politicians.
Practically speaking, the American party*
stands in reference to Popery sod to Papists
precisely aa tbe 8ag-Nicbt party stands in refer
ence to tho American party and principles.
Nothing is more cpmmon than for a Sag-Nicht
to osy that ho would be damned before be would
vote for a Know Nothing. An American does
not swear that he wonld be damned before *he
wonld votofor a Papist. -A Sag-Nicht ia there,
fore more strongly pledged against an American
than an American is against a Roman.
Tbe Ameriosn party is a- voluntary associa
tion which pledges itself to vote against Pa
pists. , The Anti-American party is a voluntary
association which pledges itself to voto against
Americans. Neither party desires to insert in
tbe Constitution proscriptive restrictions. Each
baa a right to exercise its political liberty to
vote as it pleases. The American party dis
claims that it Is opposed to Papists on account
of their religion. Bat tho Sag-Nicht party ad
mits, as a ground of opposition to the Ameri
can party, tbat the latter assnmes the right to
vote os it pleases. The Anti-American party
are, tboreforo, more justly chargeable with hos
tility to political liberty than too American
party are with hostility to religious Iberty. Pa

Wno Cabried tbe Election in Texas.—
From au article in tho last Galveston Con
federate, ire make the following extract show
ing that the native votera wore defeated in that
State, by toe foreign voters. In a Stato with
immense German settlements, not to speak of
the Mexicans, it appears that tbe American
people are in fav»r of American principles:
Again, Gov. Bell's probablo m»jority will not
overrun his foreign vote; in fact if it be only
4> 00, aa is supposed, it will not reach the for
eign vote of bia District by at least ooe half.
It may be safely assorted that there were cast
for Beil from three to four thousand Mexican
votes alone; a class of citizens who are no
more entiled to the right of suffrage than our
free negroes, and who would long sines have
been excluded from tho ballot b«x of tbe State,
but for the depravity of demagogues and party
backs to whoso peculiar uao and boi eflt, toe
booeat portion of our 8tat* bos resigned them.
—In estimating Peaae’a majority it must be
taken into consideration that this vote and to#
German and other foreign voto also was cost for
him as ohm*. Then, when it is remembered
tbat the highest vote whioh the whig party ever
cast in toe State was 9000 against a Democrat-
ie vote of 26,000 and tbat tbe vote for Governor
will stand nearly, for the American party 19,-
000 againt the vote of t&e Anti-American party
25.000 tomo slight estimates may be formed of
what Sain effected in iho State of Texas in toe
short spaee of twelve months. Another foot is
somewhat significant. We may put toe foreign
vote of the State down, with safety at 12,000.
The majority of toe Anti-American party In
the late oontest, as just stated, will be leas by
six or seven thousand, than the actual foreign
vote of the State. Thia ia a most eneonraging
condition of things for our party if it needed
any other encouragement than that »hiob vir
tuous principles and patriotic objects always
hold out.- In view of these facts, tho Ameri
can party need do nothing bat eontinao stead
fast In tho faith and true to itself.
The Pierce Democracy of lev Ttrk.
The following artfolo frotfi the Albany (New
York) Atlaa, is worthy of the calm and dispas
sionate consideration of Southern men. The
Atlaa is the organ of the Pierce Democrats at
the capital of New York—it is the paper upon
whioh tbe Administration at Washington bes
tows thousands and thousands of dollars worth
of Govornment patronage. Thase facts give
an importance to toe article and its sentiments
which they eonld not otherwise possess. In it
the principle is boldly avowed that “Democracy
(aye National Democracy) and FreesoiHsm are
identical,” and that “the popular heart of tho
Northern Democracy beats more eonndly and
in unison with this great principle than any
other political organization.”
We commend these sentiments especially to
the Georgia Democracy, who have resolved that
toe “National Democracy is the only party at
toe North with which the South can consistent
ly nnito.” But to toe article—read it, people
of Georgia, and form your own conclusions. If,.
after such an exposure, from a leading organ of
the party, in the great 8toto of New York, yon
are led into an affiliation with such a party, no
one will doubt that yonr patriotism dwindles
into insignificance compared with yonr derotiqu
to party:
From the Albany Atlas.
Slavebt ard Freedom—th* Position of
Democrats.—To many persons in our commu
nity it is an occasion for surprise that whilst toe
citixens of the southern states are so thoroughly
united in defence of Slavery, snd so keenly
stive to whatever measures may promise its
extension, there should be so mnoh discordance
amongst northern-men aa to toe action by wbiob
this approbrinm to oar age and nation abonid
be limited in its progress. This wonderment
will be somewhat abated by the reflection tbat
to tbe slaveholding portion of toe confederacy
the subject is one which involves not only per
sonal oomforto and social agrandisement, bnt
also vast pecuniary interests; as well aa to those
who stand in tho immediate relationship of
masters and mistresses, as to all the classes of
society dependant opon the producing interests
for the gains by which they subsist, Whilst
therefore Slavery ia in this - respects personal,
absorbing, active principle, stimnlating i*s ad*
herents by toe sleepless vigilance wbiob great
pecuniary interests ever sapeindaee, toe peo
ple of toe frree states have no sucb imperative
and over-operative motive to drive them into a
concentration of action in reference to this sub
ject, With us, after all the matter ia in no
small degree theoretic, and though tbe princi
ple be important, and toe consequences result
ing therefrom of great moment to individuals
and society, it does not appeal to os with the
same stimnlating urgency wbieb pertains to
monetary interests in wbieb we have and indi
vidual concern. There are none of us who fear
subjeetion to tbe lash of toe task master; and
though we feel for tho wrongs inflicted upon
humanity, and wonld fain limit them to regions
already enrsed with African servitude, we do
not feel toe evil so near aa to cause na to lay
aside all differences of opinion opon other to
pics, and address ourselves to toe extinction of
this great wrong, regardless of other consequent
ccs. Not that the people of toe North differ
materially in tbeir estimation of toe “prenliar
institutions," or the measures necessary to re
sist its encroachments; bnt they seem not as
yet to have regarded the danger as sufficiently
imminent or momentous to obliterate tbeir es
teem for the political associations with wbieb
they have hitherto boon connected, or tbe men
with whom they have hitherto acted in reference
to other measures of governjneflfc.— That the
subject is daily becomin vpfmore absorbing in
terest, is too painfully obvious; nevertheless ii
will reqairp some new act of faturfy^n to<
part of the Government—some fresh «outrages
by the votaries of toe lash before tbe North
be banded together in tbat strong and nniver
sal sympathy which actuates all too movements
of toe stave oligarchy.
Bat in the expression of thiupitipa we have
no intention of calling in question the honesty
or sincerity of any Democrat who may deem
that an .exigency has already arisen calling for
tbe sacrifice of life long political relations.—
We believe that toe principles of freedom and
Demoaracy are. and of rightongbt to be, iden
tical—tbat in so for as the latter falls abort of
a fall.and eompleto identification with and ad
vocacy of tire great doctrine of human rights,
it falls short of its tree mission- -that it its
principles have been departed from nod its glo
ry, trailed in the dnst'by incompetent or design
ing men, tbe remedy consists, not in an entire
negatfco of ail ether interests and abandon
ment of tiiP Democratic party, bnt In calling it
back te dnty by an appeal to tbe honest masse*,
by a revolution in IU action, and tbe dismissal
of those who have betrayed its true interest.
We believe that toe popular heart of the Dem
ocratic party of tbe North beats more soundly
and in unison with this (treat principle, than
any other political organisation; and though
timid men tn representative stations may bare

Cold Comfort.—Tho Savannah Journal A
Coorier has tbe following in reference to Messrs.
Toombs and Stephens and the 1’emooratie par
ty. It will be seen tbat the Editor views their
present eonrso as a sort of atonement for the
•ins they bave heretofore committed against
Democracy. If they wish to be taken into foil
fellowship with tbat party, they will yet have
to bring forth fruits meet for repentance. In
other words, they must eontinao to work for
Demooraoy nntll they have inspired that
party with confidence in them. An enviable
position for Toombs and Stephens, truly I The
Journal A Courier says:
“As yet, they (Toombs and S,options) have
established no claim apon us for anything more
than tbe sheerest justice. It must be remem
bered that in years past they have done the
Democratic party a great injury; and thongh in
the late campaign they rendered it a signal ser
vice, the most that wo are ptepraed to admit
. is—not that they have thereby made the Demo
cratic party their debtors—but -imply that they
1 hnvo squared the long standing account tbo
Democracy hold against, them. If they wish
to bring us under obligation to them it must bo

Ax Elective Judiclabt. The Defriot Free
Press judiciously remark* on this subject:
Wo were never clearly satisfied that the Jud
iciary should be elective.; and we confesa that
we are not more clear now than hitherto. In
the approaching olootion in New York Jndgea
are to b« elected, and in their election too li
quor law is tbe paramount question—the issue,
in foot. Th* candidate! bave been all nomina
ted reference to their expressed opinions as to
whether or not the existing law Is constitution-
al, and they will be chosen or defeated os a ma
jority (and may bo • piurity) of tbe people shall
think on that question. Thus every voter be
comes ajndgo. - Every eleetor site in judgement
upon tome of tbe nicest constitutional questions
tbat bave over been raised in a bigb court of
jodieature. We bavo^an exalted estimate of
the popular intelligence; we think toe eober
second-thought of tbe people prstty generally
eorreet: but we do not quite like the plan of
running the hazard of the sometimes precipi
tate first thought of the people being wrong in
respect to questions which ought not to be be
fore them, and wbiob affect tbe foundations of
soolty too intimately to be the football ofpolitiosl
parties.

•** ,! ",
Tho same Democratic principles, tbat mako
ns detest slavery, make us anxious for a healthy
foreign immigration, as the best means of get
ting rid of it. ; r -
Aad yet many Sontoern men still lean upon
that party fur safety to Southern institutions
and the preservation of too purity of republican
principles. Tbe Abolitionists and Freosuilors
depend upon foreigh immigration and the ready
means of qualifying foreigners to vote, as ono
of tbeir greatest elements of strength, and for
this reason they oppose tbe American' party.—
Bnt all tbeir opposition will be vain. The con
servative, toe Amereeaa principle of tbo Amer

Massacre of Emigrants at Devil’s Gate.
John Wiggins, a son of Billy Wiggins, of8t
Louis Mo., bas just called at our office and giv- 1
en us the following information in refereoeeto
the rumored massacre of emigrants at Devil's
Gate: |
Tbe train consisted of ten wagons, 3000 head j
of stook, and according to too. statement of Cap t.
Doniphan, of Missouri, wbo was captain oftoe
company, there were 3000 souls. Mr. Wiggins
says ho has no means of knowing toe exact asm-
"her of people in train, bat be beard Captain ;
Doniphan say there were about 300. Tho great,
er part of the company were from Missouri.
They left St Joseph, Mo., on tbe tbe 15to
March and got along very well until the 12th
of July, when they camped at Devil’s Gate for
tbo night. Up to this time they had seen bat
few Indians on the road; consequently they be
came careless, and declined “standing guard”
at nigbt. About one oclock atnigbt, about2000
Sioux and Cheyennes charged upon them while
toe whole company was sound asleep, killing
all but six men, six women and seven children,
and driving off every animal.
Among those wbo were killed were CapkDon-
ipbao, Cel. Pierre Cboteau, of St. Louis; Col.
Gilphin, of Jackson county, Mo., Samuel Lane
«nd family of Indiana, brother of Joseph Lane
of Oregon; Mr. Cody aod family, of Weston,
Mo.; Mr Burch, (single mao) of Platte county,
Mo.;.Diok Murphy, of Weston, Mo. Mr. John
Wiggings, onr informant, lost bis whole family,
consisting of a wife and tone children.
Tbe savages, after a hurried slaughter of sucb
as fell io tbeir way, retreated to the mountains,
driving the stock before them.
In toe morning toe survivors packed up what
provisions they could well carry, burned the
wagons snd everything that remained, and tben
started for Salt Lake on foot.
They accomplished tbe journey to thirteen
days, four of which they were without a morsel
to eat. They laid tbeir ease before Brigham
Young, wbo kindly called a Mormon council,
levied a contribution, and fitted them out with
five teams, with wbieb they continued tbeir
journey lo Sacramento. Mr. Wiggins is now
on bis way to Poitlaod, where he bas a brother
residing. He has walked ia from Sacramento.

Right of ffatienalltT
Here is something, says the Baltimore Clippar,
wbieb ought to be printed in large letters on tbe
forehead of every man who slanders the Ameri
can ^arty*and its principles. It onght to be
read every day to all who are so blind as not to
acknowledge both the propriety and the neces
sity of onr organisation. It is a vindication of
Americanism by a Roman Catholic. It is on
extract from a long article on Native American
ism by JBrownson’s Quarterly Review, wbieb
appeared io its columns in tbe foil of 1854. It
is an extinguisher of the vile labels upon Ame
ricana and their cause, wbieb appear every day
iu tbe organs of the Forney and Pierce Demo-
crocy, wbiob should put tbeir utterers and pub
lishers to the blush, if they ore not entirely
lost to shame. Where Catholics can tone be
quoted to rebuke oar slanderers, Amerieans
have cause to crow and labor with renewed dil
igence for toe propagation of their faith. -Here
Browsnon as follows, and fling it in too face of
yonr shameless vitoperaton:
Every independent and sovereign nation bas
a right to preserve its own nationality, its iden
tity, and to <(pfend it, if need be, by war against
any foreign power that wobld iovnde its limits;
and % fortiori to close its political society, if it
sees proper, against all foreign immigrants* who
io its judgment would endanger it, or'-fail to
prove advantageous to it. In so doing It exer
cises only the inherent right every sovereign
State, and persons born' citizens or. sabjects of
any other state must bare, noright to complain:
now naturalization is a boon—not a natural and
indefeasible right—a boon, not inthe sense of a
grant, and contra distinguished from a natural
and indefeasible right, and therefore a conces
sion which a nation is free to its own views of
policy or humanity without violating any prin
ciple of national jnstice.
As a general rale, wo think the true poliey
of a nation is to reserve the political—we say
not civil—citizenship to persons born on ita
territory or to citizens temporally resident
abroad, to distiognlsh foreign born individuals
as a reward for eminent service. We do not
believe it sound polioy to make polltioal citizen
ship too ebeap lest we make it valuless and en-
oourage a nogleot of duties.
