Sir: I was pained and astoundeato hear
the honorable gentleman from Chatham,
“alias” Cass, aliaitEtowah Cliffs, on sale
day in July, the day before our national
jubilee for 1860—proclaim the democratic
pnrty a sectional organization. If I recol
lect correctly, he said: “ It is useless to
disguise the fact any longer, it is a section
al movement.” Sir, did not the father of
his country warn us against sectional par*
ties ? Can sectionalism point to any thing
but disunion ? My God! is our gallant
old democratic party to beacon verted into
a disunion party ? May heaven forbid it.
But notice his language: “It it not
worth while to deny the fact." Sir, have
we been led on by political leaders who
have been disguising their purposes ?—
Whose objects are hidden, and these ob
jects and purposes being sectional and ten
ding to disunion.
Wliat else could the speaker mean ? Is
not this even worse than Know Nothing-
ism, whose old grips and secrets were not
avowedly disunion ? But this is not all!
The honorable speaker denounced the Lit
tle Giant of Illinois as a traitor, and south
ern men, who stand with him under the
old flag, as men eating our own blood, and
for what ? What crimes has he commit
ted, and what have we done ? Why, the
orator says we have stood, and still stand
or> the Cincinnati platform and will not
go with the secoders. Sir, I have heard
that platform and the Kansas bill abused
as a swindle and as a “cheat,” and double
shuffling concern, hv Whigs, Know Noth-
ing. Oppositionists and Black Republicans,

■is faKcSrfffsTaudefnus. As a democrat.
I inarched to victory under the old flag of
Democracy, with the Cincinnati platform
spread all. over, in characters of living
light, blazing on all its ample folds, as it
waved o'er land and sea—in every wind
in America. I read in the Constitution,
the grand organ of our party—that all
those who would add to, or take from, that
platform, should be considered schismatics
and renegades. Now, sir, we are charged
by these secedcrs, these disruptionists,
with eating our own blood, because we
«jll not agree with them and the Know
Nothings. That oor old Democratic Bible
is wrong, and needs amendment This is
nil strange to the common sense percep
tions of the tar heeled Democracy of Cass,
ln-causc I read In a speech delivered by
Kentucky.
The Hon. E. C. Marshall, of Kentucky
addressed the Mass Meeting of the democ
racy of Philadelphia, who had assembled
to the number of about twenty thousand, j tb j s same gifted declaimer, before the Dan

John C. Breckinridge lives, and that Ken- J ocra tic party,) at Cincinnati. This great

laid down the principles by which it wo’d
be governed in the coming contest,” and
speaking of the platform he says—“ and
as to the future, it boldly meets the ques
tion which threatens the disruption ofthe
Union, in language too plain to be misun
derstood, that the American Democracy
recognise the principles contained in the
organic laws establishing the territories of
Kansas and Nebraska as embodying the
only sound and safe solution of the slavery
question, upon which the great National
idea of the people of this whole country
can repose in its determined
Ckn
own blood, and Governor Johnson is hung
effigy because we stand on this same
platform, which the above, according to
the declaimer, could save the Union. It
seems to an old democrat, that he it eat
ing hi* own words, and attempting with
a para ci dal recklessness to trample under
foot the dead carcass (if it could be killed)
of the Democratic party, and tear down
Gte Union of this great Republic.
Again, in the same speech, the seceding
champion says: •* The Kaasas-Nefaraska
bill, too, was a democratic measure. It
was proposed by a leading Democrat of
the North-West to do jastiee to ar. beared
Seaih, fay restoring her again to her last
equality in the Union, and to settle forev
er on a permanent basis the Texed ques
tion ef slavery”
TFho was this leading Democrat of the
doctrine would haves like effect upon our
party, but they cannot succeed. They
may adopt the abolition or opposition doc-
trina, but democrats, good and true, will
not follow them. We can and will pre
serve our old party and long cherished
principles in spite of enemies abroad and
disorganizers at home, and the grand mis
sion of the Democracy will be successful,
and the Union will be saved. The doc
trine of non-intervention has the sanction
of the American people, and the South
especially. “Truth is mighty and will
prevail.” Let every true democrat put on
the whole armor of truth, throw our ban
ner to the breeze, and strike boldly for
our God and our country.

At the request of the Faculty of Cass

sant duty to attend the examination and
commencement exercises of this institu

The Commencement Sermon was deliv
ered on Sunday, 1st instant, by Rev. W.
H. Potter, of tlic Georgia Conference.—
Of that wc have heard but one opinion—
it was worthy of the occasion and the
preacher. Monday, Tuesday and AVedncs-
day were occupied in the examination of
the classes. In every thing the young la
dies did much credit to themselves and
the Institution, by evincing a thorough
knowledge of their studies. It scetns to
have been the object of the instructors to
leave nothing half learned. W here all
did so well it may be invidious to make
distinctions, but we tlifnk the Junior Class
in Latin and Natural Philosophy, and the
Senior Class in Trigonometry and Eviden

We have never, in any College heard Clas

knowledge of those branches.
