Whenever, “in the course of human events" a
political organization is thoroughly defunct—
re ry dead—and its leading members feel the fact,
there appears to arise at once in their minds an
alarming horror and disgust of ‘'Party." They
begin to have lively apprehensions for “Tht

the abuses of “Patty," which they disco w
threaten to engulph ami enslave tb- popular
will, and like the lux in the fr*>fe, they sec no
remedy hut in reducing every body’s party to
the sun* condition with their own. A party
meeting with them now liecomcs nothing short
of a conspiracy—« party nominee is an unscru
pulous demagogue and trickster, or the tool of Napier in unravelling
that class—the party itself a sink of corruption
and iniquity—a Pandora's box; and no chance
is left for the country but for a general uprising
of the “unpartied people" to put the mercena
ries to (light! They speak feelingly, In-cause

Wc have heretofore supposed that support of
its principles—devotion to its faith—adherence
to its organization was all that was required to
constitute one a member of the Democratic Par
ty, but from the general tenor of an article in
titc Cassville Standard, two weeks since, and
from an iusidious thrust at Whig Leaders con
tained in a niost remarkable Editorial of the
Federal Union of the last Issue, wc are prepared
for a new revelation of doctrine, and very much
fear that one of the most objectionable features
the Know Nothing articles of faith arc about
to lie incorjxirated into the Democratic Platform.

to the old—the other, that the “newjights"arc
stealthily leading astray the ancient Democracy,
and tliat they must be watched with jealousy

We protest against the introduction of this

to choose betwixt the abolitionists and the dc- reasons. First, becauseit is wrong in principli

il not, they sprung them on the moment at the j knOH .„ that thc ma trimonial ambassador had ' ' 1
polls and ru.-lted litem in, if they could; and
the man who did not stand up to these party
tickets they thought a very poor kind of man
and no patriot. In fact, they black-balled him.
Hut now that this [articular and favorable sig
nification of the word “party” is lost to them—
now that events have given it the ugly meaning
of "the either side"—now that to them it is sttg-
;i stive only of pa-t defeats and future disap
pointment, what wonder that they sec a world
of mischief in itIt is a frowning cloud 'twixt
them and fortune, and calls for constant study
to dispel it. Such, then, with politicians, is thc
simple difference betwixt “my party” and “your
party.” If wc bad a party which could prom-
isc anything, wc should stand to it; but having
none, the business now in hand for us, is to put
v nu, if possible, in the same condition.
Now we come to the era of "no party" politics
which lor some months past seems to lx; immi
nent in Georgia. Editors have iK-conte fearful
ly exercised aliout tlie dangers of party. They
are alarmed for the country in the liands of a
pariy. They sec the most horrid abuses—the
most corrupt practice* - the most shameless ty
ranny in party. Tlu-y bewail the lilierties of
the people saeriliced in party Conventions, and
meetings, and indignantly appeal to that noble
spirit of independence inherited from revolution
ary sirt-s. They appeal to the People to “throw
aside the degrading shackles of party,” and in
order to aid them, set up “People's Tickets,”
People’' Parties" and "Reform Alovemcnts” on
all practicable occasions. The thorough-paced
partiznns—thc sly old political Reynards who
•ot up these devices are not, it is true, ofron
successful. But wherever they dosucccctl, they
accomplish precisely the reverse of the pretence
set up. Thc pretence is to vindicate the popular

cending the river as far as circumstances will
permit, and at a supporting distance. Should
lie fail, the squadron will lie put in motion, and
all the vesseLs drawing from nine to twelve feet
will push on to their work, and the remainder
will lie at the bar at the mouth of the Parana,
and maintain a vigorous blockade of the Para
guay. This itself will be a serious blow to Lo
pez, as it appears by the reports made to thc
Secretary of State by the late Consul, that since
the attempt of the American company, steamers
and trading vessels, doing a very considerable
business, most of them the property of I.opez,
are now multiplying on thc river.
The occasion of the Expedition was stated
as follows in thc last annual Message of thc
President:
“I regret to inform you tliat the President of
Pataguay|lias refused to ratify the treaty between
the United States and tliat State as amended
by the Senate, the signature of which was men
tioned in thc message of my predecessor to Con
gress at the opening of its session in December,
1853. Tlie reasons assigned for this refusal will

Banks, like the one referred to, are an injury to

In their establishment, generally, the chances

Have a Home.
Young men lv*vc lately written to us, asking :
"Shall we marry, possessing only small means ?”
If the means are adequate to meet the wants
of the man and the future wife, why not ? But
they should he sufficient for this, else the most
painful consequences may ensue. Moderate
means are ample for the real necessaries of life,
too. which ought to satisfy human beings, so far
as externals are concerned; insuring social and
domestic enjoyment; meeting the real purpose
pf existence—tlieir own advancement and that
of others. But have enough for this. Have a
home.—Have a home, young men, before you
have a wife.
At least have means to provide one. You have
no business with an Eve till there Is a paradise
to place her in. Secure the garden, and the
Eve will follow. If you are unable to provide
an Eden, who ought to trust you with an Eve!
Sacred as wc regard love, we do not believe in
divorcing it from common sense. *0118 experi
ment is generally fatal to both happiness and re
spectability. Wake from mere dream life; ex
ert you energies; procure means by some kind
of honest tabor; secure a home; then ask your
own heart, and tho girl phrenologically best a-
dapted to you, the question ? “Shall I marry!
