sATi JtDAY MORWIWG, APSIL 5.
Wm. Gilmore Simm«.
The sketch of the literary career of this distin
guished writer and lecturer, which we copy from
the Encyclopedia of American Literature, will be
a most acceptable offering to our readers this
morning. It will derive fresh interest from the
recent lecture he has delivered in our city, which
made so fine an impression, and from the fact that
his second lecture on the same subject— The Ant*- ,
Colonial History of the South —will be delivered
this evening.
This sketch, in its criticisms of the productions
of Dr. Simms, does no more than bare justice to i
his rare merits as an author.
The Philadelphia Nominations -llow re
ceived by Southern Know Nothings.
We have heretofore published protests and re
pudiations of the action of the Know Nothing
(Invention at Philadelphia from various souther*
men of that party. Enough has been made appa
rent to pjevent even the most hopeful among that
organization at the South from indulging very fiat,
teriug anticipations. Though we occasionally see
notices of a‘‘Great Ratification Meeting,” “Grand
Demonstration,” “Enthusiastic Rally,” “The Peo
ple Muving,” Ac.; these flaming announcements
deceive nobody. Never was there a movement as
piring to he national, or assuming for a purpose
the garb of nationality so poorly encouraged, so
faintly cheered, so gingerly praised even by its pro
fessed friends. At the South, it has the most com
fortless of prospects. It has come but to distract
the Councils and confuse the ranks of tile Know
Nothings. It will result in their utter disorganiza'
tion. That party, like a disabled ship, that after
drifting about helplessly and hopelessly, having
lost its reckoning has split on a rock in trying to
find an anchorage. It is fast going to pieces. The
names of Fili.moek and Donelsox have no potency
in keeping the fragments together.
The latest pieces of the wreck that have floated
hv come from the direction of Alabama. They are
furnished by the Alabama State Sentinal, in a letter
of two non-attending delegates to the Philadelphia
Convention, Mr. Alex. White, and Mr. Georoe D.
Shortridoe. We extract the first portion to show
what is thought by them of the character of the
craft on which the political fortunes of Fillmoui:
and Donelsox are embarked.
Letter from Alex. White and Judge
Shortridge.
Mr. Ilardy: Being, one of us a member of the
late State Convention of the American party (of
Alabama i at Montgomery, and the other having
publicly ratified and approved the action of that
Convention since its adjournment, and being both
of us delegates appoiuted by that Convention t.
the National Convention of the American party,
wo deem it a duty to make public our views in re
ference to the Convention and its proceedings late
ly assembled in Philadelphia.
By a resolution of the Montgomery Convention
the Hon. Percy Walker aud Wm. H. Smith wen
appoint'd delegates to represent the American
party of Alabama in the contemplated National
Convention of the 2nd February, and were instruc
tod to exert ail their influence to postpone the Con
vention for nominating a President and Vice Presi
dent of the United States till the 4th July next
This particular and earnest request of' the Con
vention grew our of the wish aud belief of it
members, that a full and entire representation of
the American party of the l nited States couhljh.
had In a national Convention in Julv, and the fear
that neither could be had in February. The resuh
has justified the apprehensions. The Convention
of the 30th, (or the two Conventions as nominalh
designated,} met, refused to adjourn till July,
adopted a neic platform and nominated candidates
for the Presidency and Vice Presidency. In this
Convention, Ge irgia. North and South Carolina,
Alabama, Mississippi and Texas were not repre
sented a; all, and Virginia by six, Missouri' four,
Louisiana four, Arkansas two and Florida one del
egate. The States of New York and Pennsylva
nia together had more delegates in the Conven
tion than the whole South.
The platform of principles which is put forth In
this Conven.i m as the platform of the American
party of the United States, igru.res the question o.
slavery. l! nowhere mentions it. It does not
leave plausible ground for a belief that it is the
design or wish of the party to uphold the rights of
the slaveholding States in our territories, aud
leaves it a debatable question whether it will pro
tect it where ir exists.
Descending from the high national ground taken
by the American party in June, it plants itself up
on a sectional platform, which does not even de
sign to resort to the equivocal to U niprr to the
South its contemptuous disregard of her constitu
tional rights, or palliate the cold indifference w ith
which it is proposed to offer her up an unresistins:
sacrifice to the Moloch of numbers.
There was a moral sublimity in the position ta
ken by the American party in June which is only
equalled by the moral deha ernontof the Conven
tion of February, at Philadelphia. Our position,
then, was impregnable, and firm as the surge
beaten rock, for it was founded upon justice,
equality, and truth. It commanded respect even
where i! did not receive assent. It fell grateful as
the light of Heaven upon ’lie ungenerous wound
and prejudice itself was fast dissolving beneath its
happy influences. It was a splendid example of \
noble action and patriotic devotion— a national
party, a national platform... Loosing themselves
front all party bonds, suppressing all sectional
feeling, then planted themselves upon the Con
stitution and the Union, and gave the South,
beset as site was by foes at home and enemies
abroad, the assurance that this great national
party would throw around her the agis of its
strength.
Now the picture is reversed aud another face is
presented, which looks alone to the North. The
party which first became a truly national party,
now becomes a Northern sectional party, and
must soon degenerate into a fusion with the fana
tics who have stood the tempest beneath whose
force the Convention of the 22d of February was
prostrated.
What can be done, by us as Americans and as
Southerners, willing and resolute, to maintain the
rights of the land which gave us birth, and pre
serve the honor and welfare our country 1 ? Can
we follow, can we taint the air of a Southern land
by flinging to its embrace a banner which dare
proclaim no Southern rights ? Insult our peoph
b v advocating before them the claims of men who
will not, or dare not say to them “ that we will
protect \ou from the assaults iff the abolitionists?
Say to them that we will thus give the go-by to
principle sacred as freedom and valuable as life to ;
the people of the South? And this for what 1
That we may secure a temporary and transient
success, and which must recoil upon uswith crush
ing and deadly force.
“If it would not be deemed presumptuous, we
would suggest that there is yet hope for the Ameri- '
can party. Thar by holding a National Conven
tion in July, and taking strong emphatic constitu
tional grounds, and selecting lUitkmal men for our i
candidates, wo can preserve the integrity of our j
Government and the safety of our people. The j
virtue of Americans is yet uncorrupted, their pa- I
triotism is yet unshaken, and an appeal to them !
in this dark hour of the Republic will not be in j
vain.”
The great obstacle to the realization of this hope j
is the want of material sufficient to form a national i
party, at all respectable in numbers. That there
are many Know Nothings in the country whose j
virtue is uncorrupted, and whose patriotism is un- ‘
shaken, is unquestionably true. Especially in the
South is there a large and highly respectable body
of citizens who deserve this description. But the v
ennnot present a platform on which they would be j
willing to place the interests and honor of their
own section, which will rally to it any efficient j
support from their Northern sympathizers. The '
experience of the past year, aud especially of this ,
late Philadelphia Convention, abundantly prove
this. The Northern Know Nothings agree with
them in their peculiar tenets, with reference to ;
Roman Catholics and foreigners, but agree with
them in nothing else. The Southern Democrats
oppose these tenets, but agree with them in most
essential points of direct practical importance at
this time to the South. The Northern and South
ern Democrats can come together in harntonv of i
opinion upon these points, and stand upon a com- i
mon plalfoim. It that does not offer a national
organization, in which Southern men cau unite
there is no other which cau preserve the integrity 1
of our Government and the safety of our people.
Let them give the Democratic party a trial, and
give it their aid and influence to these ends. If it
fail, it will be a matter of small moment, what be
comes of the peculiar issues raised by Know Noth- i
ingism in our country. If it succeed, and the per
ilous storms of the present juncture are safely
weathered, then the South can better spare her
time and thoughts to the foreign immigration and
Roman Catholic questions
Davis A Co.’s Canvassed Hams.
We are indebted to Messrs. Lewis & Allen, of

News by the Asia.
The telegraph accounts announcing the arrival
of the Asia, were received by the press in this
citt about fifteen minutes past eight o’clock last
night.

shillings, while by the Asia it is quoted at 31s. (id.
For other points of intelligence, we refer to our
telegraph column.
t-iPOne evidence of the decay of Know Noth
ingism at the South, is the disposition manifesting
itself among the elements of the Old Line Whig
party to organize on theiroriginal principles. This
is also evidence of a healthy reaction going on in
the Know Nothing ranks, which is recalling its
members from the delusions and follies they com
mitted themselves, to under that fantastic name
and under its mysterious rites and orgies. There
was always repectability, manliness and a con
sciousness of patriotic purposes, in that once for
midable party. It commanded the respect of its
opponents, and when it died out the opposition
to the Democratic party lost much of its digniti
and moral force. The issues on which that party
stood and maintained itself have passed by, the
questions are solved. Whiggery accomplished its
mission when it finally succumbed to superior
power, and Demcratic policy became finally and
permanently triumphant. But it argues a just
veneration for the motives which hallowed the
cause and inspired the energies of the Whigs, that
boasted of such leaders as Henry Clay and Dan
iel Webster, to see their old followers striving
again to rally to the tattered old standard.
In Virginia the eflort to rally is made in good
earnest. At a recent meeting of Old Line Whigs
in Augusta county, the following are among the
; resolutions passed :
5. dissolved, That we cordially invite back to out
ranks all who have left us, and are now satisfied
that the Old Whig Platform is broad enough and
strong enough to sustain every interest of the
‘ country.
G. Jl.solved, That though shorn of our former
strength, we believe the Old Line Whigs hold the
balance of power in the State, if not in the Union,
and that vve can control the result of the next
Presidential election in Virginia.
7. Resolved, Therefore, that the Whigs ol Au
gusta earnestly call upon their brother Whigs in
other counties to hold meetings at an early- day,
for the purpose of re-organizing our broken col
umns, so that we may come to the field in solid
phalanx, prepared to throw our whole weight on
the side which justice to our principles, and the
best interests of the country may dictate.
8. Resolved, That we deem it expedient to re
commend a Whig State Convention to be held at
some convenient point, in the month of July next.
The following preamble and resolution offered
as a substitute to the resolutions reported by the
Committee, of which the above are a part, after
considerable discussion, were voted down;
Whereat, the American Convention which re
cently assembled in Philadelphia, nominated Mil
lard Fillmore of the State of New York, for Presi
dent of the United States, and Andrew Jackson
Donelson, of Tennessee for Vice President; Be it
therefore.
Resolved, That the Old Line Whigs of the coun
ty of Augusta, do cordially approve and endorse
said nominations, and that we will unite with all
Union men in the county, and throughout the
Union, in our best efforts to secure their election
to the offices which they are so eminently qualified
to fill.
Thus Fillmore and Donelson are repudiated by-
Virginia Whigs. How could it be otherwise, con
sidering the auspicies under which they are
brought before the country.
In the House of Commons, in England, on
the 13th of March, quite an excited discussion took
place between Sir Charles Napier, and Sir Jaml
Graham. The London correspondent of the New
York Tribune, says, that Sir Charles not only ac
cused Sir James of having wilfully and malicious
iy mis-translated French documents for Parliament
in order to make a case agaiust him, but the Ad
miral even said that the Right Honorable Baronet,
the First Lord of the Admiralty, was never serious
in his intentions of any attack on Russia, for he
prevented the Admiral from attacking the fortifica
tions in the summer time, aud in winter he as
sailed him i the Admiral ) for not having destroyed
those fortifications that he had been told not to
touch. Indeed, had he received his orders from the
Emperor oj Russia, he should have expected the same
is he received from the First Lord of the Admiralty.
Sir J ames Graham met this serious charge of
treason merely by some sneers at the incompeten
cy of Sir Charles Napier, whom he called the
would-be-hero of the Baltic, whereupon Sir James
was remined by Mr. Malins that in a speech at the
Reform Cub, lie had said of Sir Charles Napier,
that he thought the gallant Admiral the fittest
1 man for the appointment,, while now he said that
he always knew the same Admiral to be unfit. Ac
cordingly, Mr. Malins believed that the late First
Lord of the Admiralty stood condemned, on his
own confession, that he knew the gallant Admiral
was appointed to a command for which he w'as
incompetent, and then allowed the honor an--’. i n .
. forests of England to be trifled with and sacr ificed.
Sir James Graham, belonging to the aristocratic
elite which has the monopoly of ruling England,
found it beneath his dignity to replv to such at
tacks. Probably he remembered that it was not
die first time lie has been caught in saving, know
ingly, what was untrue, and that on the whole the
bad character of English statesmen for veracity was
sufficiently notorious. It has received a recent tl
; lustration by the American publication of the offi
cial correspondence on the enlistment squabble.
l-t#~ Tiie negro man, Harry, yvho murdered Mr.
Thus. J. Capehart, near Mount Meigs, Ala., a few
, days ago, after attempting to escape, was arrested
and taken back to Mount Meigs. Tie- Montgomery
i Journal states that, after confessing his guilt, he
! was publicly burned to death.
We cannot record a transactor/ so terribly cruel
: without expressing our horror. There are some
| times circumstances of atrocity attending crimes
j which would palliate such barbarity, and public
! safety may occasionally call for a punishment on
negroes committing murder more awful than the
usual mode of execution. But we are not aware
that this case admits of such palliation, or called
| for this departure from custom, and the resort to
this most cruel form of death.
Sir Edward Bulwer Lyttox was expected
to bring to the attention of Parliament, soon after
the Easter recess, the consideration of the relations
j of England and the United States, growing out of
i the Central American question, and the construc
tion of the Clavton-Bulwer treaty. Sir Edward is
j ‘he brother of Sir llenut Bulwer, and there is
not a doubt but the result of the investigation will
fuily vindicate the American construction of that
i treaty.

“ In October last, twenty-live Indians, of whom

were barbarously murdered. These were friendly
Indians going to the military reservation for pro
tection. In December last, two similar massacres
by volunteers were committed on the North and
South side of Rogue river, near Butte Creek, about
fifteen miles from Fort Lane. ‘Such conduct causes

science has elicited more acute observation and
profound research ; and yet physicians are very
much divided in opinion on the subject. It must
be admitted, however, that, after all, a mode of ex
pelling these worms, and purifying the body front
their presence, is of more value than the wisest
disquisitions as to the origin. The expelling agent
has at length been found— Hr. M'Land’s Vermi

GEORGIA MEDICATED SOAP.
The Empire State of the South still ahead in \/ier
Improvement*.
THIS article will compare favora
blv with any of like character JSgt
in the known world. iin-uriw}
I find that by putting it in the form MjfSSf
of a Soap it gives it a decided ad van JjKMBh
tage over any Balm, Salve, Liniment, .fSSrE*™ 1
or Ointment that can be made for the cure of dis
eases herein enumerated ; it also prevents its vii
tues from being impaired by age or climate, and
renders it very convenient for use.
Its action is prompt, and at the same time harm
less, as it contains no mercurial or other prepara
tion injurious to the patient. This article, there
fore, being highly medicated, will cure Ulcers,
(Juts, Flesh Wounds. Ring and Tetter Worm, Piles,
Erysipelas, Scald Head, Itch, Nettle Rash, Sab
Rheum, Chilblain, Prickly Heat, Scurvy, Sore
Eyes, Bone Felons, Old Sores, Sore Nipples, Ac.,
extract scurf and dandruff’from the head, thereby
preventing premature baldness. It is also one of
the best remedies for Burns or Scalds, and will
cure the Fistula and Scratches in horses; extract
tar, paint and grease from clothing, and is also a
superior dentriflcc to the teeth. FoPshaving soap,
it forms a rich lather, softening the beard, and
curing such sores as may be on (he face.
In the cure of all the enumerated diseases, and
particular old sen <*, this soap has proved a balm
indeed, by its wonderful healing powers.
I can procure certificates innumerable were it
necessary, but believing that a single cake is only
requisite to prove its efficacy as above stated, and
wishing to avoid everything like humbuggerv, I
leave it to those who will give it a fair trial, not
doubting they will then declare this to be the tic
phis ultra of the age in the healing art.

H. G. FARRELL’S
CELEBRATED ARABIAN LINIMENT
tS well known to possess the most wonderfully
healing, penetrating and stimulating properties,
and by its promptness in effecting cures, which
previously had resisted all other medicines, ad
ministered by the most scientific physicians, has
placed it far beyond any similar remedy ever in
troduced to the people of the United States. It
stimulates the absorbents to increased action, and
thus enables nature to throw off disease it pent
trati* to the bones, adding strength and activity to
the muscles—it is powerfully anodvne and thereby
allays nervous irritation, producing a delight butt)/
p'easing sensation through the who/, frame. ‘Owing
to its remarkable antieeptic properties, it purifies
and neutralizes that poisonous, corrosive principle
which renders old ulcerous sores so difficult to heal;
it therefore is peculiarly adapted to their speedv
cure. This Linimept from its penetrating and
strengthening qualities has been found to be a spe
cific for Paralysis or Palsy, Whiteswcllings and
diseased joints, and in fact all eonmlaints invol
ving the muscular system. It has cured cases of
Rheumatism of twenty to thirty years’ standing,
and affections of the Spine wherein the entire spi
nal column was so crooked and distorted, that the
patient could not walk or stand without artificial
support. Numerous cases of Palsy have been
cured when the flesh had withered, leaving nothing
i but the dried skin and bone, and the limbs totally
j without use or feeling. For Children with Croup
\ it is ot inestimable value, rubbed and bathed over
the throat and chest. If applied freely on the chest
it never fails io give n iff in the severe Coughs at
tending Consumption, Asthi/ui and Colds. It heals
wounds speedily—will cure Sealdhead, Mange, etc.
i Planters and Farmers will find it a most valuable
medicine to be applied to Horses and Cattle for
Sprains, Bruises. Lameness, Stiff Joints, Sweeney.
Dry Shoulder, Wounds. Burns, Splint, Chafes or
Galls, Hardened Knots on the flesh, etc.
look out for Counterfeits /
T he public are cautioned against another coun
terfeit, which has lately made its appearance, called

when the spurious mixture lias wrought its evil
effects.
