T Whitman, SECRET HISTORY OF THE COLUMBUS MOVEMENT— ; MISTAKES OF THE MONTGOMERY MAIL, A writer in the Montgomery Mail, in , ■an article headed Georgia, and the I mon j j falls into some very singular errors. In I describing the meeting in Temperance I Hall on the 26th ult., and which inaugu | rated the so-called “Columbus Movement,” lie says: A Know Nothing presided ; among the old Democratic and “Fire Eating” lead ers present we observe the names of Gen. J. N. Bethune, Seaborn Jones, Esq., Hon. I James Johnson, &c.; and among the i Whigs, Wm. Dougherty, Thos. Ragland, | and Hines Holt, Esqrs. It will be news here, and to no one i more emphatically than to the honorable [gentleman himself, that '■‘•Hon. James Johnson,” was a fire-eating leader in 1850. At least, such was very far from being the opinion of Jno. 11. Howard and others who participated in that meeting. William Dougherty will be very much j surprised to learn that he was present and participated in the meeting. The pub lished accounts state that he was absent from the city. But the most singular announcement of all is that “a Know Nothing presided.” Os all the men in the city, William H. Mitchell is the last man wc would pick up for a Know Nothing. He is one in no sense. We suppose the writer formed his estimate of .his politics from the company he was in. There were a good many Know Nothing present at that meeting and, in fact, the whole movement origina ted with them. The secret history of the “Columbus Movement” may be told in a few words. A good many Democrats were from one cause or other lured into the Know Nothing Councils. About the time the State Convention assembled in Macon, it was ascertained that the con cern would prove a failure in the South and especially in Georgia. On the heels of this discovery the Union degree made itsappearance. The fire-eating Democrats, no longer stimulated by the hope of office, grew restive, and began to curse the thing and threatened to withdraw But what was to be done ? The Demomocratie par ty had denounced the Know Nothings from Maine to Texas, and were on the eve of a signal triumph over them in Virginia. “If we go back into that party’’ so they reasoned, “we shall be doomed men ; at least, we will have to go to the loot and spell up. What shall we do then ? The Whig party is dead; Tne Know Nothings are dying; the Democracy proscribe us. What shall we do? Start a new party,” answered some man of audacity and geni us, and forthwith the "Columbus move ment” were brought forth. Well, it caught some fierce old fire-eaters, who, like old war horses, snuffed the battle from afar, and a very respectable meeting was gotten up at 'Temperance Hall, and a good [ deal has been done to excite the public I mind, but we have yet to learn that the j first Know Nothing has quit the National j secret political Order to which he belongs. [lt seems to us that it is a necessary pre | liminary to Southern Union, and that these j Democrats who have quit the Democratic ; party had better see to it that their Know | Nothing confederates are free to set in i good faith with them before they co-ope rate with them in its dissolution One lof the supposed Know Nothing leaders, | we know, has refused to advise the Arner- I ican Patty, not to make a nomination for j for Governor of Georgia and has hopes , that it will prove to be the very party the : South desires Are there any more of the | same sort participating in the Columbus Movement ? We would really like to ' know. May not the Columbus Movement | be a trap to eateh the Democracy and in duce them bodily into the secret chain- I bers of the Know Nothings? Are they j more worthy of Party affiliation than the : Democracy North or South ? We can't I think so.— Columbus Times <1 Sentinel. A funny case was tried in London j some time since, disclosing a new system jof advertising. It appears that, when the | pantomime of “Jack and Jill" was pro -1 duced at Drury Laue Theatre, a Mr. Nix ij ey give Smith, the lessee. .I’7 10s. to rep ’i resent, in a scene, his shop, name and . I business on the door; to announce in the ■ bills that such was to be seen, and after wards to exhibit a drop scene, to be turned from the words of “Nixey’s Black Lead.” by the magic wand, into "Gone to Blazes.’’ The trick, however, was not done, but Mr. .' Nixey was, and he brought suit to recover ’ back the money. The shop, it seems, was | fully represented, but the trick was the i greatest point with the advertiser.'and the . I judge’decided that the money must be j refunded. It is said that as much as ■ £SO. £6O, and even more, is often paid I; for this species of advertising I ....

On the first 'Tuesday in June, a very large and respectable portion of the Dem-1 ocratic party, met at Jasper. On motion. John Holcombe, Esq., was I called to the chair, and Allison Mellan | appointed Secretary, when M T. Day, | i Esq., being called on, explained the oh- I jects of the meeting. On motion G. W Harmon, Esq., a committee of five was ' appointed to prepare business for the meeting, consisting of the following gen i tiemen, to wit:—G. W. Harmon, Wm T. i Day, Wm. 11. Gordon, Jeremiah Lam i bert, and Isaac Lindsay. The committee I immediately withdrew to an adjoining i room for consultation. In the meantime I the meeting was addressed by Col. L. J. Aired, who made a very appropriate and ; forcible speech, showing that it behooved ' the Democracy to prepare for the coming elections —to stand by their principles, and defend them against the combined attacks of the various amalgamated fac tions and isms of the day. While he was speaking the committee on business re turned; lie suspended his remarks, and they made, the following report. The committee appointed by the chair to pre pare business for the action of this meet ing, beg leave to offer the following re solutions, and recommend their adop tion. Ist. Resolved, That the Democratic party of Pickens county, are gratified to learn that Col. Joseph E. -Brown has con sented to become a candidate for Judge | of the Blue Ridge Circuit, aud while we I know him to be always true to his politi- 1 cal faith as a consistent Democrat, an able and efficient lawyer, and an honest; upright man we also recognize in him those active business qualifications and that de cision and energy of character which pe culiarly qualify him for the Bench, and that the Democracy of this county, and |in our opinion a large majority of the | people without distinction of party, will i give him a united cordial and hearty i support. 2d. Rcsolv d. That the people of this! I county still remember, and will not forget! on the day of election, the active and en-1 getic stand which Col Brown took, and I the able and efficient services which he render to our able, and faith ful representative Lemuel J. Aired, Esq , while he was battleling at Milledgeville, in the last. Legislature for the formation of our county. And Mr. Alred’s services will be acknowledged by his numerous friends at the election in October next. We will stand by those who stood By us when we most needed help. 3d. Resolved, That that portion of the general presentment of thelate grand Jury of this county, which is political in char acter, and was intended to influence the Judicial election in favor of Judge Irwin, the present incumbent meets the in quali | lied disapproval of this meeting, and in our judgement receives the decided con demnation of a large majority of the voters of this county, which portion of the pre sentments above referred to, was origiual- ; ly drafted, as we are informed, by a law yer who does not reside in our circuit, and • is an old bluelight federal whig, and that > we doubt not, from the attendant circum ’ stances, and the short time which was al ’ \ lowed the Grand Jury for preparing their ’ I presentments, on account of the hurry ' which it seems the court for one time > got into, that it underwent the revision, • or at least the suggestion and approval of I the highest authority of the court then in I session. ’ 4M, Resolved, That we disapprove of 1 the practice which now obtains so common-. • ly with grand juries, of lavishing on all 1 occasions sickly, and in many instances, • unmerited and unmeaning compliments 1 upon Judges and Solicitors General, as it ! | encumbers our records from court to derstood by every man of sense to be a • court with unnecessary matter, and is un- • mere unmeaning commonplace ceremony, J and does no good, only as it may tickle - the vanity of a Judge who may happen to ’ to be weak enough to receive it as the 1 highest evidence that all regard him of dis- 1 tinguished judicial ability. l)th Resolved, That long; dry and tedi ous charges to Grand Juries, bad order in I . Court all th‘ week, slow tardy dispatch of\ II business, and long concluding addresses to ' ‘ ; Grand Juries on receiving general pre- ’ j sentments, while numerous parties and in ; | terests have to attend from court without I getting their causes tried are, in our judges ’ i ment improper; and in every case where such a state of things exist, a reformation t is necesarsy. ’ 6tA. Resolved, That we invite all sound Whigs to unite with us in the common I cause to put down those amalgamrted fac tions that are seeking to destroy the liber ties of the people, and the free institutions I of our country. ~th. Resolved, That the Democracy of . this county will support Lemuel J . Aired j Esq. for the Senate, and John E. Price > for the House of Representatives, at the t October election; that we will use all hon i orable means in our power for their success . an I we doubt not they will succeed by a . large majority. ,; On motion of Col. Samuel Tate, the -! al»ove resolutions were unanimously adop r ted. 4 On motion of William T. Day, Esq., 5 Resolved, That the proceedings of this ‘ meeting be published in the Cassville ' * Standard and the Cherokee Advocate with ’ a request that the Rome Southerner and II .Atlanta Examiner copy. The principal business being finished, i W. T. Day, Esq., and Judge McHan ad ’ ddressed the meeting in support of the ( resolutions. Ou motion the meeting then adjourned. JOHN NELSON, Chairman ,: Alison McHan, Secretary 1 , ' - ••» > I A Scene on th® Stage.—Susan and _ Kate Denin were playingjßomeo and Julit at the Troy (N. Y.) Museum, a few even ings since, when some of their enemies [ began to hiss Kate. There was great ex citement, and angry exhibitions were made between the partisans and opponents of ] the actresses, when Kate, who was playing ■ Juliet, burst into tears. This turned the • tide in her favor. At this juncture Susan came upon the stage, and placing her arm r about her sister’s waist, turned to the au „ dience and exclaimed— p "What has my sister done? Who can | e say any-thing aginst my sister? (A voice j e —‘Nobody.’) —That is so. Say whatever’ s j you please in regard to me, but do not j abuse my sister Don’t cry Katy— go on with your part. Nobody has anything to say against you. ” it" This happymelo-dramatic addenda was .- greeted with three times three,’"and with • a great effort Kate subdued her emotions | and continued her performance. PLATFORM OF THE OHIO KNOW NOTHI NGS--ANTI- ’ SLAVERY FEATURES. We invite the attention of our readers j to the following platform which was pro mulged by the Ohio Know-Nothings at the annual session of the Council held in Cleveland, June sth, 1855. It is said that 400 members were present, repre senting a nominal membership of 130,- 000. The platform cannot be denied, since it is published by order of .the council, is signed by its chief officers, has appeared in Know-nothing organs, and has been formally aud authoritatively communica ted to the National Convention now hold ing its session in Philadelphia. “We proclaim to the world the following principles of the American party in Ohio. “ 1. The unlimited freedom of religion disconnected with politics; hostility to ecclesiastical influences upon the affairs of government; who are thoroughly Ameri canized, aud owe no temporal allegiance, by reason of their religion higher than that to the Constitution. “2. No interference with the rights of citizenship already acquired by foreigners and the protection ot law to all who hon estly emigrate from love of liberty ; but the exclusion of foreign paupers and fel ons, and a refusal to extend the right of suffrage to all who come hereafter until ( they shall have resided twenty-one years ! in the United States. • “ 3. Opposition to all political organiz-1 ations composed exclusively of foreigners,! J and to foreign military companies, and to’ I all attempts to exclude the Bible from ’ schools supported by the government. “4. Slavery is local not national: . lie oppose its extension in any of our Ter-! ritories, and the increase of its political, power by the admission into the I nion of any slave State, or otherwise; and we de mand of the General Government an im-; mediate redress of the great wrongs which have been inflicted upon the cause of free dom and the American character by the repeal of the Missouri Compromise and i the introduction of slavery into Kansas in ’ violation of law, by the force of arms, and the destruction of the elective fran chise. “5. In humble imitation of the wis dom of Washington, we oppose all inter vention in the affairs of foreign States; yet on all proper occasions, we will not with hold our sympathy from any people aspir ing to be free. “6. We support American industry and genius, against the adverse policy of foreign nations, and facilities to internal and external commerce by the improve ment of rivers and harbors, and the con struction of nation roads uniting the At lantic with the Pacific ocean, and binding together the various sections of the Union. “7. The Union of these States should be. made perpetual by a faithful allegiance to the Constitution. “8. In State policy we zealously ad vocate retrenchment and reform, a modi fication of the present oppressive system of taxation, and a liberal system of public schools. “ThomasSpooner, President. “ John E. Rees, Secreeary.” BILLS OF EXCHANGE AND BILLS OF LADING. • A case of much interest to commercial men has recently been decided in the French Courts in Havre, directly the re verse of the English practice in regard to the use of shipping documents for the se curity of Bills of Exchange drawn against Cotton and other produce from this coun try. It is also at variance with the hith erto received custom adopted by our Bank ers in regard to French Bills. The ship’s Bill of leading has been held to control the property not only until the Exchange is presented and accepted in Liverpool or Havre, but until the acceptance itself is made satisfactory to the holder or cashed at bank rate by the acceptor himself. — Such, however, is not the law of France. The consignee in Havre is no party to any contract here outside the Bill of Ex change itself. The property passes to his control when the Bill is accepted. The case was as’ follows : A merchant in Mobile bought for a merchant in Havre 353 bales of Cotton, and drew for the amount at sixty days’ sight. The draft was sold to L. W. and Co., accompanied with the bill of lading, with the under standing that if the draft was accepted and the acceptance was satisfactory to the holder, the bills of lading be remitted to the person on whom the draft was drawn ; but if it was refused acceptance, or if the acceptance was not satisfactory, then the holder was authorized to put said bills of landing in the hands of anothe* to operate the sale on account of the proprietor, and apply the proceeds to the payment of the draft. The Bill was accepted by the drawee, who claimed in exchange for his accept ance the Bills of Lading which the holder refused to except on receiving good secu rity for the ultimate payment of the ac ceptance. An action was brought by the acceptor before the tribunals of Havre to obtain the Bills of Lading. The following points were decided by the Court: 1. The holder of a Bill of Exchange, not yet accepted but who intends present ing the same for acceptance, cannot' exact from the drawee, who is charged with the fulfilment of the provisions of said bill, any guarantee not stipulated in the con tact of exchange itself. Especially the holder of a Bill of Ex change cannot exact from the drawee, in addition to his acceptance, a security for payment at the expiration of the term, or any other guarantee not stipulated in the original contract. 2. The holder of a bill canuot produce, in justification of his position, agreements : between him and the drawer which are ir- ■ revelant to the bill, and to which the drawee is an entire stranger. 3. An acceptance is sufficient when giv- en in conformity to the rules laid down in Articles 122 and i.-- .t the Code of Commerce, and the <h . •; th- right, when he offers an accepiau< e eviitormably thereto, to insist on a delivery of the Bills of Lading of the goods for the payment of which the Bill of Exchange has been drawn ....

[Prom the North Carolina Standard Hackney’s X Roahs, / Chatham Co., June 6, 1855. Having learned that a report is in cir culation that I am a member of the Know Nothing party, and one of the chief offi-| cers of the same, and having, as I trust, a | just regard for my character as a man and a citizen, I take this occasion through the Standard newspaper, to contradict this re port, and to brand it as an utter and base talsehood. I never joined the dark-lan tern concern, never thought of doing it, and never will, so help me God ! My father was an officer in the Revolutionary War, and fought for three years side by side with themoble men of that, era, native and adopted, for the great principles of freedom and liberty of conscience; and I should consider that I was dishonoring his ! blood if 1 allied myself with any such par ty as that of the federal bluelight dark lanters. lam now seventy three years i of age, I voted for Jefferson, Madison Monroe, Jackson, Van Buren, Polk, and Pierce; lam a Democrat from principle, and shall never desert the party which has administered the government during nearly the whole period of its existence, which has defended it through two wars, enlarged its boundaries in peace and by honorable conquest from thirteen States i to thirty-one, and made it the asylum of the oppressed of all nations, a land of refuge where all should be allowed to i “ worship God according to the dictates' : of their own consciences,” none molesting them nor making them afraid This is my position and these are my ! principles and sentiments May God save : free slaveholding State from the blight . and the curse of Know Nothingism ! My ! confidence is unshaken, for God greater i than the Devil. (Signed) JOHN HAUKNEY.

Their medical qualities are well under stood and appreciated by our most scientific physicians, who arc among the warmest friends and supporters of thr place, and who are daily giving their testimony in favor of their remedial efficiency in cases that have long baffied the skill of physicians and the power of medicine. For the relief of Dyspepsia, in its various forms. Chronic Diarrhim, indigestion, Kidney diseases. Cutaneous AiTections, Irregularities and loss of Appetite, Debility, &c. For nervous affections they have proven themselves immensely useful. As a summer resort, few places have, equal ad vantages. Besides tho Red and White Sulphur and Chalybeate Springs, we have as good cold frcc-stpne water as can be had anywhere. Our buildings arc located in the midst of the native forest groves, amply protected from the sun, and in full view of the mountain ridge, from which we have almost a perpetual breeze. Pleasant rides and slntded walks surround the place. 'Fhe arrangements for bathing in the Sulphur waters are complete and convenient. 'Those who desire comfortable rooms at White Sulphur, should make early application as we expect all will betaken noon. Visitors from the low country should come directly to Columbus. At that place they can either take the Hacks for White Sulphcr, or con tinue up the Road, to West Point or LaGrange nt both of which places they will find Hacks in readiness to bring them over. R. T.
