joyments of the day.
A large audienco assembled at tho Atbemoum to
hoar tho address of Mr. Bartow, in commemoration
of the semi-oentenial anniversary of the Republic
can Bluet, It wqs an abio and ehasto production!

tention, from tho beginning to the close.
We were prevented, by indisposition, from par
ticipating in the convivial proceedings of the dny.
Wo learn, however, that nil was done up in tho

to mar Us enjoyment.

Tlio Nccoaslty for New PartUii
The Georgian met our proposition for n dlisoltt-
of old political organisations, and the oreotlon of
neW) with a sneer. We are aware that those
who aro in ofilco and command the keys of the
treasury seldom clamor for ft change, however
strongly tho necessities of tho country may do-
mnndit. But lot us tost tho justice of our posi
tion by facts; and thoro is no belter way of doing
, " 7 l * nuu , , ,,u r ‘ botwoon -Star Hwr»M of 10th «»*•.the »«>«
it than by an examination of tho relations between ,
the Georgian and other reputed orgnns, nnd the
national doinooratio party sinoo tho coming in of
tho present administration. Both profess to ho
directly nnd to a hair’s brondthon the lino oMem-
ocratio faith and principle, nnd if cltbof should bo
found to vary In essential poiuts, it will bo proof
eonolnsivo that tboy ore uufit political associates.
If thoy dilfur in principles and monsurcs, aud slill
hold logothor, it is a suro sign tlint tho bond of
union is anything olso than tho country’s good.
Beginning ns fur back ns tho Cincinnati conven
tion, wo find tho Domoorulio party placing thom-
■olvoa on a platform in roforonOo to tho foreign rela
tions of tho government, to which thuir nominee
distinctly rolused to pledge biuiself in his loiter of
nceeptunce, nnd ngaiust which ho litis consistently
warred from tho beginning of ids administration
uutil now, tho Georgian ami othor southern Dem
ocratic prossos occupying a grouud diametrically
opposed to him.
Iu tho ouso of Wulkor and Paulding tho Presi
dent nnd tho Demoorntio press of llio South hnvo
boon ut opon war, tho lnttor declaring that tho
former would pnliiuto and excuso uu net that com
promised (ho Government and wns nn outrogo
upon tho rights of nations. Tho Georgian took
this position. Tho Prosidont hns boon striving to
proservo llio laws nnd the honor nnd good faith of
tho country, while tho largo body of his party hnvo
■ought in overy way to thwart him in his patriot-
io endeavors. Ho bns set his fnco agnlnst oil
innrnuding incursions from our shoros ngaiust tho
neighboring republics, whilo his party press in tho
south, with n few honorahlo exceptions, hnvo given
aid and comfort to thoso lawless expeditions nnd
their leaders. Is this not truo?
On tho slavery question,aud tho rospoetivo pow
ers of tho Federal aud Stato governments in rela
tion thereto, tho nduiinistrntion nnd its southern
frionds hnvo boon as wido asunder ns tho polos.—
The southern Domocrnlic pross, almost unanimous
ly, denounced tho President’s policy in Kansas, as
nttomptod to bo carried out through Gov. Walker,
and ns subsequently re-nsserted in his special
message to tho two houses of Congress. They de
clared it ft usurpation, un enronohmont on tho
rights of the South, and an outrngo upon the con
stitution. Is this not truo ?
. Upon tho Pacific Railroad question tho admin
istration holds opinions which every Democratic
press in tho South hns boon dououncing for tho
last twenty yonrs.
Aud finally, to oorae squnro up to date, tho Eng
lish bill, which wns but yesterday put through
Congress by tho friends of the ndministrntlon, wns,
but n fow dnys ngo, denounced by tho Georgian
as un insidious attempt at congressional interfe
rence with slavery in tho Territories, n “ siremt-
der" by tho South, of “every principle for which
the contended throughout the content" It declared
that tho passage of tho bit) would bo a triumph
for the truitor Douglas, nnd would cover tho ad
ministration with “ defeat and disgrace." It hat
panned, nnd that, too, by tho Georgian t own par
ty, in whoso hands it tells tho people of tho South
their rights nro safe ! IIow can it repent tho dco*
lnrution herenfter? Where does it stand to-day in
relation to tho party which, by its own confession,
has outraged and disgraeod tho southern poiple?
If tho ornclo hat spoken truly, is it not bound, as
a patriotic, independent press, to repudiate nnd cut
looso from tho vilo contamination? Should not nn
injurod nnd insulted South rise in her might and
put down n party that has thus betrayed her confi
dence, and hoaped disgrnco nnd dishonor upon
her ?
In tho loco of nil theso things tho Democratic
party still holds togolhor os n unit. Wo nsk lion-
ost men of nil parties, is it a virtuous or n corrupt
association—pnrty peeking to promoto tho good
of tho country, or n pnrty without principles and
banded togotherfor its own nggrnndiiomcnt ?
Wo hnvo shown that upon vital questions, in
volving tho integrity of tho constitution nnd tho
dearest rights of tho people, thoro is no harmony
of sontimont or action in tho great pnrty that now
hns tho government in its hands. Thoro is not one
solttnry issue of tho day, or a principlo that is
worth contending for by frecraon, upon which they
aro not hopelessly divided. Overwhelming in
numbers, ns n practical, governing pnrty,tho eoun.
try can look to It for the success of no measure,
bowevor necoasnry to its pcnco or prosperity. In
deed, it is but a coalition of political fuctions,with
out principles or policy, nnd held togethor, ns Mr.
Calhoun is said to have declared of it twenty ycore
ngo, “by tho cohcsivo power of tho public plunder.”
There is no honesty, no truth, no good of nny sort
in such nn association. It enn accomplish none of
tho valuable purposes for which politicni parties
woro instituted. Its power begins nnd ends with
tho individual thrift of Us members, nnd tho enuso
of publio virtue and good government is obliged to
bo sacrificed wbon committed to such hands.
Of course wo speak of Democracy in its collec
tive, party senso. Thoro nre, no doubt, thousands
of virtuous, patriotic citizens who belong to the
organization, nnd ndhoro to it from n tradiiionnry
attachment,or for the want of sotno othor avail-
nhlo association. They have no sympathy for its
intrigues, its peculations, nnd its plots, and
would dissolve their connection to-day, were
tlie ro somo honest association to invite them to its
Upon tho facts wo hnvo given will any man SDy

IIow Savannah is to Profit nv Carolina .Sus
pension.—The Augusta Constitutionalist copies
tho articlo of our correspondent, “ Home,” (alleg
ing that tho continued suspension in Charleston
will divert cotton from that point to .Savannah,)
and adds tho following comment :
“Wo may casually remark to tbo correspondent
of tho Bcpullir.au, that cotton is not moved for
ward to market by contributions to nowspupers.
If tbo shippers nnd commission merchants of Sa-
vnnuah expect to “ reap a harvest” from Augusta,
thoy must send up their orders for cotton. Whilo
there Is ft stock of about twenty thousand bales it
is in tbo hnnds of men who know how to sell il,
and wo huvo among us purchasers who nro experi
enced and know where to ship it.”
It was ratified contrary to ail expectation, on
Saturday, tho 28th lust. Sovornl of tho uieinburs
apposed to it were absont, nnd tho opportunity was
embraced to hnvo it through.
Tho monibors from Leon wont for it in n body,
tiut tho Granadians generally opposed It. Tho
veto stood ton to live. It wns opposed by Dr.
Falla, Pedro Chainworro, Joso Antonio Mejia,
Pedro Prado nnd Franoisco Jimoncs. Tho treaty
is very populnr in Lenu, but in Granada, Massnya
and Rivas, the jentenxu very indignant at Its pas
sage.

Tho Unitod States is empowered to open nnd

kiug tho oath of nlleginnco to tho Stntoof Nicara

Tho United States to bo allowed to plnco

Stato) against nil foreign invasion,and to maiutain
internal quietude.
American citizens, naturalized or otherwise,
tojhavo all civil rights in quality with native Nica
raguans.
Thoro can beno doubt of tbo practical effect of this
tronly, and thut it is tantamount to an extension
of a protectorate over Nicaragua by tho Unitod
Statos. It is tho first cousin to annexation, a con
summation that will corlniuly, if not speedily fol
low.
Ono thing may bo said of tho Yrisnrrl treaty
with perfect assuranco : it is an effectual extin
guisher of all the|plnns of tho groat filibuster Walk

gua is concerned, his “occupation’s gone”. IIo

Tho Washington Union emphatically denies that
tho treasury will call for a loan, or for authority
to counect tho treasury notos with n loan by fund
ing tho same. It also considers tho rumor that fur
ther temporary aid, by means of treusury notes,
will bo called for, os premature.
Cnors in tub South*West.—Tho Albany (Go.)
Patriot of Thursday last, says : “Wo have bad
quito cool weather hero with a slight frost. Vego-
lation is not injured, and crops nro looking well.”
A Notorious Creek Outlaw Killed.—A let
ter from tho Sominoic Agency, west of Arkansas,
to tho Fort Smith Timet, says :
Tbo Crooks huvo killod tho notorious Indian Yo-
bl, who has murdered so many persons in tho lust
few months. They shot him threo tiinos, cut out
both ills oyes, and knocked him in tho Load with
an axe, to bo sure of his denth.
Commander Herndon.—Sonator Soward, on
Tuesday, introduced tho following joint resolution,
which wns rood and referred to the Committoo on
Naval Affairs:

that tho widow of tho said Wui. Lewis Herndon

Tho Columbus Enquirer of yesterday, says:
“ Wo uderstnnd that in'iuany localities in this
latitude more damage hns been ocoasionod by tho

ers will hnvo to ro-plnut considornblo portions of
their cotton crops. Wo hnvo heard of somo plucoa
not far off, in which tho young corn hns been mado
to look docidodly frost bitten nnd sickly, but wo
presume tho eeasonnhio wonthor will bring it nil

American Tea a Failure.—Thoso who have
made (ho experiment of raising tea in this country
say tho plant will grew well enough, but wages
nro too high. They cannot afford to pick, roll up,
nnd dry nny sort of lcnvcB hero for half a dol
lar a pound. In China, whore a innn is hired for

A Deadly Color.—Tho now Azof greon of tho
Paris spring fashions is dyed with such poisonous
materials that 6onmstrc»ses who prick the fingers
whilo sewing it loso tho uoo of their hnnds,

On Saturday last Postmnstor Fowlor of this

reason for not presenting it bofuro. In tho mean
