the United States, it was made one of the corner-stones
An't>“ 9 a P'Otestant was the first to proclaim it, and a
Catholic colony the first to give it practical effect, and all
th* States aiterwards embodied it as a living principle in the
organic law ot their union, there let it remain forever, an a
binding pledge for that “love, tneekne** and forbearance”
which should everywhere, and at all times, characterize a
Christian people. In this way, we 6hall perpetuate that re
ligious as well as civil liberty we received as the richest of all
patrimonios from our lathers ; and in this way we shall
show our attachment and “intense feeling” for that true
Americanism with which they were so thoroughly imbued.
1 shall now glance briefly at the proceedings of
the late Philadelphia Convenlion and its pro
gramme of principles, and bring this address to a
close. My remarks on this shall first be directed to
the composition of the Convention. Its Northern
ehnents, with hut few exceptions, almost every
body objests to. By general consent they are held
to have been very unfit political associates. But I
am not satisfied with its Southern composition. In
the first place, I do not like the name I see signed
to the proceedings as the presiding genius of the
body —"E. B. Bartlett, of Kentucky, President of
National Council.”
[Mr. Thomas M. Turner here interrupted, and
said that Mr. Bartlett vva.s a Southern man and a
slaveholder, he was informed, and President of a
Baptist College in Kentucky.
That may all he true, but it seems he was th fa
vorite of the. Freesoilers; and I have heard it sta
ted that he was in favor of abolition in Kentucky
a few years ago. Can my fiiend inform me if that
is true- Ido not know whether it is or not, and
should like to have all doubt removed cu this
point.
[Mr. Turner, in reply, said again, he ie a slave
holder!
Yes, and so was Cassius M. Clay; and so, I sup.
pose, are Mr. Neil S. Brown of Tenn., Mr. Pilch
er of Ky., Mr. Houghton and Mr. Rayrier, of N.
C., all mernbere of this National Council, and all
of whom are reported to have declared themselves
mgainst the policy and propriety of the Kansas end
Nebraska act ot the last Congress. The latter
gentleman, Mr. Raynor, is said to have denounced
it as “an outrage upon the North.” Now can my
friend inform me whether Mr. Bartlett entertains
similar opinions?
[Mr. Turner. He voted for the majority Plat- !
form.]
Yes, and so did Mr. Rayrier and the others I
have named. But does he, or how many of the
{Southern members even, of that Council, approve
those existing laws which that Platform barely
promises to abide by? Was the very President of
this Council one of the original friends of the Kan
sas bill, or was he one of its enemies? How stands
my friend himself—was he a friend of the Kansas
bill? And if so, is he now willing to trust its fate
and safety in the hands of those who fought ltlun
til fighting waß unavailing, and who nbw simply
say that it may stand as it i ? I tell him I was a
friend of the Kansas bill in the beginning, • in its i
progress, and throughout the eventful conflict at-|
tending iis passage. It took off the odious restric- !
tion against slavery, which h-'d been unjustly put i
upon those territories thirty years and more before, j
It \vrn the greatest act of justice to tfie South ev- j
er passed by Congress. Iknowwhaiit cost and ;
what it is worth; and for one, I am indisposed to j
confide its safe keeping in the hands of those who j
opposed it by all the power and influence they j
could command while it was an open question,and :
who do not now even say that it was righ, or give i
it tlreir approval. The authorized Reporter (as he j
jnyO of the proceedings of this National Council ;
makes this significant comtnen 1 :
“A striking fact and one that you caunot have
failed to remark has been disclosed in this discus
sion, and that was, that while the emire South wa3
a umt on the nnjor tv platform, scarcely a member
from thence, in the many speeches made by them,
assayed an apology for the Kansas Nebraska act;
and whilst generally subscribing to the doctrine of
non-intervention, nevertheless repudiated the ad
ministration which foisted it upon the country at
the tremendous expenditure of plighted faith.”
Now this is a most striking fact—one that struck
me, and one that ought to s-rike the whole South
with profound astonishment! Scarcely a member j
from the whole South in this grand National !
Council who even assayed an apology for the \
Nehraska-Kansas Bill, and whose warm opposi- j
tion to the administration, it seem, was the ‘‘Joist - i
ing of this great act of justice to the South upon the
o entry.” Now, l say to all of you, there|are many ■
things in this administration that I do not approve. !
and w uld willingly join any party to *ut a better j
one in its stead, but so far as ii aided or countenan - j
ced the Kansns-Nebraska Bill it received and has j
my hearty approval. The greatest objection I had j
to it on that score was that it did not, in my opinion, ;
give the measure that cordial support which it j
should. And if the object of the American pariv i
be to turn it out and put down those men North, ’
to say nothing of ihose South, who gave 119 that
groat measure of deliverance, and for nothing so
much as doing that, then they can never have mv
co-operation, even it we agreed in every other arti
cle-d their creed. Onr last legislature unanimous
ly declared:
“That opposition to the principles af the Ne
braska Bill, in relation to the subject of slavery, is
regarded by the people of Georgia as hostility to
the people ot the Souih, and that all persons who
parnike i t , such opposition are unflt to be recogniz
tMl as component parts of any partv or organiza
tion not hostile to the South.”
On this resolution, and the Georgia resolutions
of 1850,1 stand, and shall continue to stand. And
without looking further into the elements or com
position ot th's National Council, if what the re
porter of their proceedings says of even the Sou
th? rn members ot it be true, it is sufficient to enlist
my opposition to them as a political organization,
even it we agreed on other matters. .1 shall affil
iate m party association with no man North or
■ I itu, who either looks upon this act as an “out
ta p’ on the North, or who is arrayed against its?
spirit, principles or objects.
Hut, I wish at this time to sav a word or two,
and only a word or two o the Platform itself. It
acknowledges the “existence of an Almighty Being
wuo ruiee over the Universe,” and has in every
our progress thus far distinguished us by
some “token of Providential agency.” And I
wish at this threshhoid of the concern, to ask what
,uore important step in our advancement did we !
tivcr take than the acquisition of Louisiana ? That
vast territory that stretches from the Gulf to the
L'ikes, and trom the Mississippi to the Rocky
. [the weight of authority is! even
to the acitio ? Had this American Party then
bee.! m power, with its anti-Catholic sentiments ful
ly developed and carried into effect, would we ev
er have taken that grand step ? Louisiana was
Lathohc, and would her people havo ever consent
ed to become incorporated into this Union, except
by *t*h’inn treaiy guaranteeing them a;l the rights
secured by the ConMiiituti. n ? Had they then
dreamed ot the modern construction and evasion
of that instrument, would they have consented to
the cession ? Would they willingly have permit
ted their lots to he cast amongst a people who re
garded ‘hem on account of their religion as unfit
to m id any place of trust <*r profit, k sort of Lep
ers, to be cast out of ‘he political camp ? The same
may be said O! Florida - that was a Catholic coun
try at the time of in? acquisition. And light here,
let me *av, if Uiis ‘ Know No-hing” intensely Ame
rican feeing shall become a dominant in thfs coun
try, Cuba, of course, will never be acquired. The
people are Catholic. And as much as they might
desire to get r and of their present oppressions and
become ijicgrporatei io this Uukm of States, ua-
dor the guarantees of the Const tution as hereto
fore understood, they would hardly be willing to
link their destinies with a people who looked upon
them # politically untrustworthy. But what is
said in this platform about the “Union” being
the “paramount political good,” I consider as di
rectly opposed to the Georgia Resolutions of 1850.
The Union, dear to us all, as it is and ’should be, is •
held in those resolutions as subordinate to our I
rights! Iso hold it still. And so far from being j
per se “the paramount political good,” it might and
inav, in bad hands, become the greatest possible j
curse. So long as it carries out the principles and
objects for which it was made, it shall have my
ardent and most patrintic support. But I do not
like to see a dangerous principle 90 artfully cover
ed up and glossed over as this ‘‘paramount politi j
cal good,” doctrine is in this programme. It is like j
a grain of poison thrown in the chalice.
But, fellow citizens, I have said all that I intend i
to say ; ail that my strength will permit me to say. i
I have given my views upon what constitute some !
of the features of genuine Americanism. The
parly now styling itself exclusively American, is,
as you perceive, in my judgment, Anti-American
throughout. The two great objects lie at its foun
dation, and upon which its whole superstructure j
is reared, are the proscription of ail foreigners !
trorn office, as a class, and a like proscription of i
all Catholics as a clase. These objects, in my
opinion, are inconsistent, and at war with the es
tablished principles of our government. As to
the outside principles put forth at Philadelphia,
oven those which may be unobjectionable ae gen
erally admitted truisms, they in every practical
point of view, amount virtually to nothing. They
are but the tubs thrown out for the whale. Taken
as a whole, it ma) be considered as one of the
most “whimsically dovetailed” diatribes of piety
and politics—religion and mammon—unmeaning
generalities and radical errors—that ever was se
riously presented to the deliberate consideration of
an intelligent people. This, however, is but the
outward show. The party is to judged by its in
a’de principles. These are not to be changed.—
The same process of initiation, and the same obli
gations by all its members, never to vote for a for
eigner or a Roman Catholic to any office of pro
fit or trust, are still preserved. An effort was
made to modify this exclusion of Catholics, so far
as American born Catholics are concerned, but
this failed. What, then, on such an issue, if it be
made, ought all good citizens to do ?
Whether this issue shall be presented to the peo- 3
pie of Georgia, Ido not know. But if it is, I say •
to One and all, take your place on the side of relig- j
ious and civil liberty, as taught by your fathers ; I
takevour place by the Constitution of your country I
—sustain its standard—keep the flag afloat—and !
as far as in each of you lies, let it be transmitted |
to the remotest generations, unsullied and unim- 1
paired.

Wormi! Worm*!*—A great many learned treatises

topic of medical science lias elicited more acute observation

that,after all, a mode of expelling these worms, and purifying
the body from their presence, it of mo'o value than the w iseet
disquitions as to the origin. The expelling agent has at length
been found—Dr. M’Laue’s Verruituge ie the much sought at

Tallapoosa Cos., Ala., Jan. 2, 1852.
Dear. Sir: —1 send you this to certify to you that your Ex- j
tract of Ye.-low Dock and Sarsaparilla has performed one of
tiie most wonderful euros on mo that has ever been effected on
111 11.
I have been afflicted for forty years with eruptions on my !
less and feet: in 1848 they got t-o bad that 1 tad to go on •
crutches, and in 184 b 1 had one leg amputated above the knee.
In about nine months after my other leg .broke out in large j
eating aud running sores from my knee to my foot, and dis- ;
charged a great deal 01 offensive matter, ft]y groin also broke !
out in large bile3, which discharged much offensive mutter,and j
at too same time my left baud broke out in large running sores 1
nearly to my elbow.
The miae-y that ! have suffered for the last- two years I can- ;
not desciibe to jou. i was in such agony that I never rested :
day or night.
In October last my son brought me one of your bottle wrap
pers; I read it, and found record of some wonderful cures j
performed by jour “Extract of YeiiowDock aud Sarsaparilla” :
I sent and got two bottles of it. aud ’commenced taking it. In ‘
two weeks, to my great astonishment, my sorec ail became eu •
ty, and I could sleep ail night, a thing l had not done for tv
tears - When I had taken six bodies, my sores had nearly a :
\ healed. My sores got well as if bv enchantment. I have now
I used in ail eight bottles 01 vi<ur “Extract of Yellow Dock aud :
i Sarsaparilla,” and now consider myself well.
I ent'cat all of the afiicited to try ibis medicine, fori believe
it will cure any known disease in the world. Lay aside all j
prejudice, and just try it, and proclaim tits g:>eat worth to
suffering mankind and entreat them to take it, lor if will cure
them.
My case is well known in a larae portion of South ‘ arolina,
Geor/ia and A ab vma, anti if anj should doubt the above
cure,l invite them to call oh me, and I wi’l show ti em the
scars. > can be found in Tallapoosa County Alabama, one
mile from Stoe’s Ferry.

VEGETABLE PAIN KILLER.
OWING to the large amount of Counterfeit Pain Killei put
up and sold a? get utne by unprincipled men, w e have
been obliged to resort to very expensive measures to protect
ourselves pecuniarily, and the public from great injury, by
buying and using their worth’ees counterfeits. Ti e compar
ative plain and simple style in which our Pain Kiikr has
beeh put up, has made it very ea-y for those disposed,to im
itate it very succ> Ssdiily, as far as its external npp arance,
in stjie of bottle, label, and color of the article; but we need
not say that the compound is a miserable, filthy production,
and calculated to do great injury to those who might use it
with thecoDfldence they haie been accustomed to use the
genuine Fein Killer. Parties whose business it is tr counter
feit valuable preparations, do it in such a secret manner,that
It i>i almost useless to attempt to punish thf rn by legal meas
ures, as it is difficult, and we mighl say impossible to bring
the proof home to them.
Considering the great difficulty in protecting ourselves and
the public by prosecuting parties, we have bev nto a very
great expense in getting up a finely executed
STEEL ENGRAVED LABEL,
or our bottles. We also attach to our bottles a Steel. Engr
aved note of hand, which we ibse as our obligation and the
counterfeit which is held to be lc-gerj bj the Is e of the
United htates, end which parties will not dare attempt to do.
