The Democracy of Jasper in Convention.
a ] ar ae meeting of the Democracy of Jasper was held
at Monticello on the 25th for the purpose of a|poiDUn and l
ogatea to the State Convention on the sth June. n.y
Phillips, Esq. was called to the Chair, and V in. A. L,ottin
“SnrE, Col. Flemming Jordan, Wm.C.
LoVSv. E*;., and James L. Stand,ler, Esq -ere aintotn
t ])e'e£ratfs with power to fill vacancies. Gen. Burney
reported the lollowing excellent resolutions which were
“KSSffTtaSt!: adhere to the constitutional princi
pies laid down by the party in the Baltimore Cont ention
° f Sired, That President Pierce has fulfilled our wishes
and expectations, in protecting and t^ Const,,
tution from violation His vetoes or l<t w - P a -j a uy , e
prove him to be a fearless and independent
statesman .and that so long as he holds his present high
position, the Union will he free from all danger of a dose
oration of tho Constitution* , . • . ? ,
Sired, That the new party which has made its ad
v, m and assumed shape and exigence in the Union, and
which i* now seeking to spread its influence m the South
ern ctfutes called “Know Nothing,” meets with our deci
dej disapprobation. We oppose it among many other rea-
S °ut Because it originated in the Northern States with
sailers and abolitionists, and the recent elections there,
have resulted in the success of that class of politicions, by
!! j{ now Hoiking” aid and influence, and who avow’ their
unalterable determination to make eternal war on South
ern institutions. . . .
~j \Vo oppose the party, because it is a secret political
organization—its members being bound by solemn oaths to
* v out the political edicts issued in their Councils.
3d. We oppose the party because it makes an intolerant
and tinchairitable war on a class of people and Christians,
who are entitled to all the rights and privileges of .every
other citizen.
gy the sixth article of the Constitution of the United
States, it is declared that “ho religious test shall ever be
required as a qualification to any office or public trust
under the United Slates; and by the 10th section of the
i:h article of the Constitution of Georgia, it is likewise de
clared, “nor shall any person be denied the enjoyment of
any civil right merely on account of his religious princi
ple.” The Know Nothings, it would seem to us, violate
the reason and spirit of these instruments, by proscribing
from office a whole class of citizens and Christians, with
out regard to individual merit, worth or qualification. Such
intolerance and want of charity, would exclude a LaFay
cue, a 1) *Kalb, a Pulaski, a Gallatin, a Carroll, and many
others who have honored our country by the loss of their
bjood and by their services.
The political sages who framed oar Constitution never
intended that church and State should be blended; they
li id been rightly taught by history, that established reli
gions were anti republican, and hence they made it a part
of the supreme law, that in the enjoyment of rights under
our government, the religion of the citizens ’should never
lie called in question, and we hold that every citizen who
seeks for honors, either in a public or private station r hould
be judged by his talent", patriotism, and integrity, fie is
responsible to some extent to society for these qualities, but
ehould not be made to account for the place of his birth, or
his honest religious convictions. While on this subject,and
disclaiming the remotest intention of offending any one, or
of taking sides either for or against any of the various re
ligious denominations, in a public political meeting like the
present, we will, nevertheless, suggest to such citizens and
Christians who may he disposed to countenance the Know
Nothing movement, what might be the eventual effect on
their own order of religion, if the present intolerance and
jierseeution should finally prevail.
The Puritans of New England, to avoid eccleastical per
secution, left the old world and came to the new, but soon
forgetting the cause of their exile, actuallv expelled from
their Colony, that worthy man Roger Williams, because
he was a Baptist, and who sought aj habitation in the then
wilderness of Rhode Island, rather than abandon his con
scientious Baptist principles. It may be (for who can tell)
if the present crusade succeeds, that some - Know Nothing
excuse may be made, to ostracise the followers ot Roger
Williams because they are Baptists. Jonn Wesley, like
wise, who was the chief corner stone in his day ’of the re
st icctable body of Methodists, had his difficulties with the
Protestant Churches of England. Let Know Nothing-ism
succeed against one branch of the Christian Church, and
the secret oath that binds it, may for a few flimsy reasons
wage a war of persecution against Methodism.
Resolved, That the Democracy of the non-slaveholding
States have our sincere thanks for the noble and manly
stand they have taken in defense of the Constitutional
rights of the South. Delusion and deception may over
shadow them for a time,but we feel a confidence that the ‘so
ber second thought of the people’ will in due time restore
them to the political supremacy of which they have been
unjustly deprived.
Resolved, That without distinction of former parties we
cordially extend the hand of political fellowship to all citi
zens, who unite and agree with us in the support and main
tainance of the principles herein declared.
Rishop Andrew, of M. E. Church South,'accompanied
hv the Rev. Messrs. Moore and Ellis, had arrived at San
Francisco.

Dr. M Lane's \ ermifuge —During a practice of more
