The Piety ot the Philadelphia Plht • fbrni. After tea days ttf toil and Iroflßle, of strife and dgoriy, of scfctiortal atfUggle ahd persoh ai coriteatiPH, Os low itttfigUS and furious coattorcrsy—after every dfighmeftt of per suasion and of cdnipulsioii liad beeh exhaus ted iU the vain attempt to establish harmo ny of feeling and uriifdf ihity of ter Schism had torn the body in pieces ahd destroyed its power and respectability ; the rilmp of th 6 hnoW ttothifig Council in Pliil adelghiii jSfotUilgittCl a platform, in Vfhieh theit dValiniS of morality and their princi ples Os public policy are elcpoUttded With the painful precision of a logical deduction ahd thC COpibiVs detail of a criminal indictment. ThC Know Nothing platform is a wonderful prodiictibn. There was never anything like it before ahd We are quite sure there will never be anytbibg like it again. It is equally o rigimti and inimitable. The genius that conceived it should avow its paternity, nhd enjoy the UpydaUso of ah adihirihg hUllon. The pertoli that could jcotnbiUe So much cf polit eal Wisdom r.Vid piohs precept mUst Surely illustrate it hiS ofrn life all the Vir tues of the ‘ObViStian and all the accomplish toents of tht statesman. VV'bo is he ? In this country the State and the Church Ore distinct and independent. The interests ■of rfcligiott have never been confounded with UiatterS of public policy. No party has ven tured to incorporate a confession of religious faith in a platform of political priuciple un til Know Nothingism began its desperate ex periment upon the public virtue and the pop ular intelligence. The first article of the Philadelphia platform affirm thelexistcnco of Deity and the agency of a special Providence, and the eleventh recoguises the confession of faith. Is it to he understood to exclude the doctrine of the divinity of Jesus ? It evades tho issue at least, aud for the shnplo reason that the grand chaplain of the order is a dis ciple of Sociniauisin, and the majority of its members in the North belong to the Uni tarian communion. The party that ignores tho second attribute of tho Godhead may raise rocruits in Massachusetts, but will find no favor among the Christian people of the southern States. But all this pretence of regard for the in terests of religion is tho merest cant and tho most shameful hypocrisy A-party that numbers not righteous men enough in its i ranks to save it from tho fate of Sodom, to : set up as the special patron of tho Protes- | taut religion ! A party whose piety isillus- j trated by the profligacy of a Hiss, to affect j nn exclusive concern for the public morals ! Joseph Surface abounded as nnicli in virtu ous sunti i ent as in vlc’ous conduct, but tho veil of affected honesty could not conceal the hideous deformity of liis real character. — The morality of Know Nothingism is the morality of the villain in the play, and the soundest platform even would fail to cover up the essential corruption and evil of its” nature. Indeed its proftsions of purity only serro to expose its criminal conduct in the strong light of cont rast. The protest in this Pit Udelphin platform against the selfishness mid venality of politicians, its professions of regard for the public interests, aud its prom ise to restore an era of primitive simplicity and virtue in the administration of the gov ernment, coma with all the effect of the bit terest irorfy from a party which is responsi ble for the shameless excesses of its Massa chusetts members, and for the indecent dis closures in the legislature of Pennsylvania Thero is as much modesty in the painted Mush of tho prostitute as thero is of sinceri ty of conviction and honesty of purpose in the puro and patriotic professions of the Know Nothing platform. The people will not be deceived by sush jrain pretences and Jdlo mockery of political integrity. They have had these pledges before and they have seen fn this very party the most flagrant cor ruption of private morals and violation of public virtue. The Philadelphia platform is as in obnox ious in its political principles ns in its relig ious professions ; and the party exhibits as little of wisdom in its policy as of virtue in ita conduct. This accusation we will make good in another article by a critical scrutiny of the several provisions of the platform. — Richmond Enquirer. A Slander Refuted. To the Editor of the Southerner: I trust you and your readers will excuse me for appearing in your paper at this time. There is a report in circulation in this city that there was an understanding between Judge Lumpkin and Dr. Lewis —that in case Doctor Lewis could not get the nomination for Congress Judge Lumpkin was to have it. 1 know this to be false. Judge Lump kin acted with strict fidelity to Dr. Lewis, and was his friend to the last: and I was instructed by Judge Lumpkin under any cir cumstances not to permit his name to go be fore the Convention. I withdrew it, and only yielded at the close of the Convention as the only means of producing harmonious action Judge Lumpkin ts no political trickster. I have been intimately associated with him in | politics sinpo 1838. lie has always acted with strict fidelity to his friends and party, and with veneration and reverence for the (Constitution of his country. Another re port that by a decision of mino Dr. Lewis was deprived of his.nomination. Such is not ,lhe fact, to which the whole Convention will (testify. One of tho resolutions adopted by (the Convention for its government was, •Re solved, That it shall require a two-thirds vote of this Convention to nominate.” As there were 00 delegate 3 in attendance, or that ppipber of votes allowed, it required 81 votes to nominate; consequently, as Dr. Lew is received only 82 votes no other decision /coqld be made. Yon .discover the resolution, as published in the slip sent out ty the Southern Statesman, was incorrect. Your tricks gentlemen, will hare no cfeet on Dr. Lewis or his friends, fer he is not o#e of your Pretenders to Democracy, but a stealing old devoted to his principles, his party and his country. hoqor tq such states men and patriots. A T. HARDIN. Juqe 18, ’65. Know Nothingism North. The accounts which we yesterday publish ed of the ratification of the platform, by largo and enthusiastic meetings in Philadel phia and New York, do u,ot change our own Conclusion that the. is no longer to bjs. important political element in tho North ern States. Some of the Northern cities. United to ifie South by strong commercial ,lo nds, may not, possibly, repudiate the ac tion nf the late gi ayd council on the subject. But not so as regards the Know Nothing masses beyond Mason and Dixon's lino. There are already indications that even Pennsylvania atid NeHr Jersy—Where the 6r‘ der is less abolitioniZed than iti afiy other free State (since New York) will spitrfl the behest of the late Convention. Two lcadihg K.

From East Tennessee our information is nearly good as from the other sections; and we and nbt 1 not when Johnson speaks there ; t will be quite as good.

Resolved , That tho democracy of Jackson countj* are unwilling to give support to any man or set of men for high and responsible positions who have espoused and are advo cating tho doctrines of the new party known as Know Nothing, alias Native American party. Resolved, That wo have not yet been con vinced that the great principles of the Dem ocratic party, established and carried out by Gen Washington, Mr. Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Jackson and Polk, and which are the same upon which our Government is now being administered by Mr. Pierce, arc wrong aud unsafe; but, upon tho contrary, have yet nn abiding faith in those long-tried and time honored principles, and are unwilling to surrender them into the hands of the new party who are organizing secretly and scheming in dark holes, garrets and cellars, at the hour of midnight, for the purpose of wresting from the hands of the Democratic party, secretly and clandestinely, the prin ciples established by them secretly in their midnight conclaves. Resolved, That we, as Protestants, regard religious liberty as one of the main bulwarks of American Freedom, and that we hold it as criminal and cursed sacrilege to rob even a person professing Christian an religion of a single motive for his devotion, and hold it as an cqu -1 insult to our own faith to offer us a boon for our profession.

To the Editor of the Standard : In advance of our annual Circular, which wo intend issuing Ist September next, we think it not out of place to advise our friends of the pre sent state of th Flour and Grain trade, and tho probable future turn prices may take. Our pre sent information from Tennessee,'Georgia, South and North Carolina, lead us to believe there will be an extraordinary heavy crop of Wheat secured. “Wc had hoped that a market for all the Wheat raised could have been found with the millers in the up country, and that instead of receiving shipments, would have received the This, however, it npjw-ars, will not be the case, as from present appearances there w.ll be largo shipments of Wheat d.recto 1 to this market; and it is on this account wo ant cipate our annual Circular. Heavy orders are here for Wheat at limited prices; a sale of 2,060 bush els Red Wheat has been made at $1 75 per bush el of GO lbs., to be delivered by 2oth July, which we consider a high figure, and ofte that present indications will pot warrant. W heat must de cline materially as the season advances. For present delivery here it might not be dangerous, but we doubt whether Georgia and Tennessee can get their Wheat here before Maryland and Virginia have theirs ready for market as the hnrvast has already commenced in those States : in which case the price we have named, $1 _75, would not lie safe. South and North Carolina may get considerable to market before any ma terial decline occurs, ns they are nearer a ln -*rk et but from Georgia and Tennessee wo know by experience that even alter it is delivered at the depots on the Road.it takes frowm 12 to 80 days to arrive here, and from Tennessee partic ularly. The Northern markets arc deelinirig daily, buyers only supplying themselves for their immediate wants. We think the decline will continue until tho Wheat crop is fully ready for market, when the price will settle down to a figure that can be depended upon with more certainty. Our advices to our friends is to operate cau tiously, feel tho market step by st -p as the sea son advances, aud not base any heavy specula tions for future delivery on the pressnt quota tions. Corn has also experienced n considera ble decline in ouir market from $l3O to $1 15 per buslml within the last 10 days ; in this how ever, you are not materially interested at pres ent, as you will have none to sparo before the present crop has matured. Our present market quotations are : Flour, superfine, sll 50 to $lO, in sacks, and $'J 8-4 to $lO 1-4- in bids. The stock is ample and de mand light. CORN.—Some 40,000 bushels have been re ceived this past week, opened at $1 24 and clos ing at $1 15 in bulk. OATS.—Large receipts have put down prices to 60 a 65. .

IT IS AN ERRONEOUS IDEA that disease cannot be cured except by taking large quan tities of medicines into the stomach, in a great many cases of which much injury is done, al though the disease in point be actually cured.— The coats of the stomach by continued use of liauseaing mixtures, frequently becomes.! much disordered that the diges f \vefu?u ■tiflH is serious ly injured —the result of which is dyspepsia, nervousness, cholics, alternate ditirreea and eos tivencss, flatulence, nightmare, etc, etc. Would it not therefore, be very desirable to possess a remedy, which being applied externally would excite the absorbents to increased action, and thus carry off though this medium, the de leterious principle Which is tho direct cause of the disease? Surely the safest means to .effect the dt-sired end. The almost superhuman cures formed by the Arabin physicians in the days of old were inanity effected by this course ot treat ment, and the ingredients of which 11. G.

This great Liniment (which is now to he had of most respectable druggists and merchants in every town in .the United States) is daily effecting cures which seemed be yond the power of medicine to control—con sumption, bronchitis and liver complaints in their first stages, nervous affections, indigestion, enlargement of the spleen, scrofulous tumors, goitre, etc., etc., are frequently cured, and al ways relieved by its use. It is unsurpassed ns an anodyne—relieving severe pains in a few minutes*after its application, it soothes the irri , ated nerves, and produces that delightful tran quillity so grateful, to the nervous invalid.— Sprains, bruses, wounds, burns, sore throat, chilblains, rheumatism, sun pain, etc., etc., are speedily cured by it, ami for nearly all ailments in horses or cattle, requiring an external appli cation, it is an effectual remedy. ‘ Look out for Counterfeit t The public are cautioned ag u-ist another coun terfeit, which has lately made its appearance, called W.

PRESENTMENTS.— We, the Grand Jury for the Comity of Pickens, selected and sworn at the May Term of the Superior Court, 1855, beg leave to make tbe .following presentments: We have examined, through Committees from our own body, tho Records of tire offices of the Superior and Inferior Courts and of the Ordina ry, and arc happy to say, that we not only find them kept correctly, but in every wav highly creditable to the officers in charge. *We have also examined the accounts of the County Treas urer, and find that he has received for the past six months, for County purposes, the sum of .Fifteen Hundred and forty-seven Dollars and twenty-one cents—tint, he has paid out during the same time, Fifteen Hundred and thirty-four Dollars and ninety-seven cents; leaving a bal ance in his hands of twelve Dollars and twenty four cents; and that there is a deficiency to be met for orders on the Treasury, to the amount of Twelve Hundred and five Dollars and fifteen cents, and to met the demand and provide against contingencies, we recommend to the In ferior Court to assess the tax of fifty per cent, for Comity purposes. We have also examined the Public Buildings—we find the Jail of said County in good condition ; the work has been done in a substantial manner. We respectfully urge upon our Inferior Court, to have the work upon the Court Home, pushed forward with all possible speed ; and that they require a strict compliance Upon the part of the contractor with the specifications of the contract. We are gra t.fied to report our public roads in tolerably good order, but request the proper authorities to have sign boards at the various forks, and mile posts put upon all the roads, which up to this time, have been generally neglected. We regret to see from the books of the County Treasurer and proof submitted to us, that there has been, by an order of two only of the members of the In ferior Court to their use for services rendered by them, the sum of S2O 25 to Judge Ammons and the sum of $27 00 to Judge Holcombe, which action we disapprobntc, and request the Inferior Court to have the same paid back to the Treasury b‘v those gentlemen. The Grand Jury further presents and desire that their recommendation will thus be publicly known, as they believe it a duty they owe, not only to the cMizens of Pickens, but also to those of tho Blue ltidge Circuit, that they have been pleased with the course persued in the judicial career generally, of his honor, Judge Ikwix, and they would do injustice to their own feel ings, if in this, their official report, they would fail to call the attention of their I’d low-citizens of Pickens County to that fact, much more do thoy'conceivc would they bo irreverent to the high trust imposed upon them, if they should fail to recommend to their fellow-citizens, of tin* County of Pickens, the high claims which Ins honor, Judge Ik win has upon them in the ensu ing election for their sufrages to perpetuate to them the clue administration of the Law, so faithfully administered heretofore, during his present term, and should we be forgetful of tho untiring energy of our present Solicitor General, in dignity of manner and faithful execution of his office, as should demand from every citizen that meed of praise* to which all faithful officers are entitled under our form of government. In conclusion, wo would beg to remark, that our best wishes for the present and future prosperi ty of h:s Honor and Solicitor General are hereby respectfully presented.
