Address.
It is a peculiar feature in the composition of
our government and institutions, that when the |
Democratic element on which they are based. J
runs into such excesses and licence as to peril 1
the pristine virtue and integrity of the country, I
the consevative powers of the nation arrange
themselves and subdue the innovations which
threaten at once the stability of the Constitution,
and the welfare of the people; and it is to this
inherent quality arising from, and dwelling
IN THE ENLIGHTENMENT AND GENERAL INTELLI
GENCE OF THE BETTER CLASSES Os population. I
that we find the safeguard of the Republic in
the past, the hope of its perpetuity in Ihe future
though at the moment its power is called into ■
action, from the necessity for its exertion, the
political atmosphere may be agitated by storm
and whirlwind, still such wilj be but the harbin
ger of a serene sky mid an unclouded day; for
OUR NATION, LIKE THE OCEAN, CAN ONLY BE PU
RIFIED BY ITS GIGANTIC CONVULSIONS.
Far, then, from deprecating such agitations,
ought we not rather to regard them as the con
sequences of the necessary struggle, which is in
the end to expel intolerable abuse, and restore
health to our political society.
Among the many imperfections to which a I
government constituted as our own is subject,
the generosity with which it throws wide open
the portals of citizenship to the members of all
nations, and all classes, is not by any means the
least to be deplored. Not content with extend
ing to the oppressed myriads of less favored
lauds the blessings arising from a free govern
ment, the happiness springing from free institu
tions, and the protection flowing from merciful
laws, not content with throwing the broad
jEgis of our constitution between the oppress
ors and suttering humanity of tlie whole world;
not content witn inviting starving millions to
take refuge from famine in the bountiful bosom
of our beautiful country —the original framers
of our otherwise almost perfect constitution,
WITH AN ILL-ADVISED LIBERALITY, extended tO
them also tue highest honors of man, and while
relieving their necessities, called on them to as
sume the august mantle of the legislator.
With such inducements as these, it ceases to
be a matter of surprise that men groaning under
the burdens of intolerable taxation, bowed down
with the agony of seeing their starving wives
and children, and crusued under the we ght of
evils springing ironi a huugnty aristocracy, and
an overcrowded popuurtiou, shomd han with
rapture this new realization of a laud literally
overflowing “with milk and honey," and leaving
the time worn abuses of European sociely, should
throw themselves on our shores in numbers
countless as the swarms of Locusts which infect
ed Egypt of old. But while we greeted the ar
rival oi the few industrious and sterling men
who were driven by untoward circumstances to
seek shelter among us, we were also forced to
receive the by far larger proportion of the idle,
the vicious and the lillity, who lacking the ener
gy or honesty to live in their own homes, come
to reap a harvest by the exercise of qualities to
which happily, the native born citizens of the
land are strangers. Here came, and still comes,
the pauper, with his rags and his sloth, to cajole,
by uis leigned distress, the sympathies of the
charitable and industrious; here comes the ad
venturer, striving to obtain a livelihood by cun
ning and trickery, which, if exerted in a better
cause, would pernaps conduct him to considera
tion and credit; here conies, actually brought
at the expense of their governments, the reiuse
of every European city, the incorrigible inmates
of their jaiis, actually converting the heritage
earned by the blood of our lathers into an asy
lum for every rogue and cut-purse on the face of
the earth. Doubtless among the thousands who
swarmed hither lucre wore a few worthy of the
high privilege our laws extended to them, but
these were comparatively lew indeed. Still'
fewer were they who contributed in any manner
to the intelligence or enlightenment ot the com
munity, aud lower still wno added anything to
the weaitn aud comfort oi society.
But of all who came, will any one have the
hardihood to contend that one in one hun
dred considered the right ol ■ suffrage as an in
ducement among the causes that compelled them
to emigrate ? I'uey camo fleeing from the em
brace of gaunt tannne, mid whetner the country
acknowledged tiie sway of the despot, monarch
or president, the difference was not material, j
provided the plenty of the land would suffice to
relieve their own necessities, and those of their
wives aud little ones.
Can it be.wondcred at that men, whose whole
lives have been passed in the grossest ignorance
• and abasement, whose constant care bus been to
keep I'rem their thrseho.d the grim demon ol
starvation, who crouched submissively beneath
the rod of an uupitying government, nay, who
licked the hand tuat struck tuem—the most
brutally ignorant deu.zens of hinds whose wi
sest sous, after years of study, found themselves
unable to comprehend the action of our pecul
iar government; can it be wondered at, that
these new citizens, utterly ignorant, as their
limited powers of comprehension and reasoning
must necessarily leave them, of the very consti
tution they swear tosupport, would be the read}
dupes and willing toois oi every unprincipled
and designing demagogue?
The privilege, inestimable to the born free
man, ol asserting his opinions by means of pop
ular election, became to these voters, in very
many instances, but a question ol barter auu
sale, aud every political canvass was converted
nito an auctioneer s mart, at which the vote wa
kuocked down to the highest bidder, aud the
representative of the people was chosen by men
wuose choice was dictated solely by passion or
interest, seldom or never by the caim aud steady
influence of reason. Tue very qualities neces
sary to tae character of the pure and patriotic
politician, were such as would inevitably fail to
enlist the attachment and support of these men.
who found in the artful and pnant demagogue a
far more congenial spieit. Tims corruption
crept into the mgh places of the government,
and the fairest flower, that of integrity and pa
triotism, was rudely torn from the chaplet oi
virtues that Washington, Franklin aud Jeifer
sou had twined around the welfare of the peo
ple.
But it was not only in the administration ol
government that the abuses arising from foreign
population became apparent.
The same causes which qualified these men
as voters, disqualified them us jurors ; and thi
sacred precincts of the tribunals of justice were
defiled by the display of verdicts emanating
from the influences of bribery and corruption
or from those of unhallowed passions and prej
udices. Every vein and artery of society, civ.
and political, was tainted by this poison, wliic.
circulated through it and the purity of our in
stitutions, as bequeathed to us by our ancestors,
was threatened with total destruction.
Another consequence naturally springing from
the habits aud customs of this motley popula
tion soon become apparent. I'hese people, who.
during their whole existence had never had u
voice m the election of their rules, could not
comprehend, aud could still less observe that
good humor aud obedience to law, which th,
party iu tiie minority always in this country
show to the will! ol the majority : mid the elec
tion precincts of our cities, hitherto the scene
of the utimnt hormony and good wiii, becam.
the ground of the most disgraceful riots am.
disturbances.
It was in vain that the old and reputable ci:
izens. children of the soil, aud whose lathers ha<
bled, perhaps, in the cause ol liberty, remonstra
ted against these excesses : deaf to reason, theii
newly acquired liberty became unbridled h
cense, and the insolent yuedn n “is it not a fret
country" from even brutalized specimens of Im
inanity, who but u month before', perhaps, wouk
have scringed abjectly to some petty squire ii
his own country, would be the sole answer,
indeed a blow was not the consequence of tin
interference. But never while they thus usurps
all the rights and privileges of the native bon
citizens, aud even in many eases endeavored b;
superior numbers to compel them forcibly in:
th hr own measures these people, wi.h an uu
pt deled audacity refused to om bine with them
u..d enjoying ertry rigut and every privilege i.
common with ouraelves, kept up, iind still kee:
up, national societies, national festivals, air
national peculiarities belonging to the laud • t
their birth, I’hus we see that while the sligh.
eat allusion to an adopted citizen's birth-plae
spoken ot in a political light by a native* cit
ten. is received as illiberal and contrary t.
American spirit, it is no uncommon thing tv
find Hibernian Societies, St. Andrew Societies,
I German Societ’cs, Scotch. Irish and German
j military companies, in which the national col
ors are paraded through the streets, and in which
I all of these very people contend to maintain
I thrir reflective nationalities.
Still the American people bore these ontra
ires for many years without a murmur. 'That
strong law-abiding spirit, so prevalent among
Americans, and so characteristic of an enlight
ened and educated nation, was strong within
them. True it is that men would reason on the
subject. "Why," one would say, “ should my
I soils of 18 and 20 years, educated, refined, anil
I honorable, bred up to a knowledge of history, |
| laws and constitution of the country, whose iii
-1 terests are identified with tiie soil for which their
i forefathers bled and died—why should they lie
refused a voice in the government, while yonder
beeotted wretch, brutul, ignorant and lazy— who
has scarcely been in the country five years—
who, far from understanding the question at
issue, hardly understands the language, and who
would sell his vote to the highest bidder, is al
owed, nay, is invited to express his opinion by
the ballot box.’' “And why,” the young man
would say, “ should we, who are born bn the
soil be forced to wait twenty-one years in order
to vote, while these strangers are allowed to
vote after the trifling lapse of five years?"—
These questions would arise—the common sense
of the people dictated them—but still the polit
ical horizon did not bode a storm fierce enough
to rouse the slumbering conservatism of the
nation. saw strangers sharing their no
ble heritage with them, but they said there is
enough for all, take the fruits of the land but
do not cut down the orchards which produce
them; they saw many and great abuses, but
they patiently endured them from the deep re
spect due the immortal framers of the constitu
tion ; they knew that they bad taken a viper
to their homes, and they calmly watched the
reptile, as catching the genial warmth radiating
from our institutions and laws, it uncoiled its
loathesome folds, and stood ready to strike the
hand that cherished it, when suddenly a new
element concealed in this foreign pest aroused
all their latent energies, and they prepared
themselves to battle and crush the ungrateful
monster which threatened the well-being of all
they held dear and honorable. The far larger
portion of our adopted citizens owned the sway
of a spiritual power which iu its ambition for
temporal command never sleeps, and which, in
the attainment of an end, is as unscrupulous in
the means it employs as it is insiduous in its
approaches. The doctrine of confession, a car
dinal point in the orthodox adherent of this
laith, places the church in possession of all
knowledge, political and domestic, while that of
absolution holds out to the pious worshipper an
inducement to commit any and every crime at
the simple request of any of the clergy compe
tent to absolve him from the sin.
When we add to this the blind attachment of
these people to the government of Rome, an
undoubted evidence of the fact tiiat the efforts
of the Propaganda were directed to the over-;
throw of religious liberty, and the establishment
of the Catholic faith us that of the country,
can it be wondered at that the indignation of
the people was aroused ? Was it not a burning
shame that these foreigners, to whom we Lad
extended tiie right hand of fellowship, whom we
had welcomed to our homes and heartlis, to
whom—just rescued from the most grievous
oppression and want, we had ottered liberty
and plenty—should endeavor to use that very
liberty for the overthrow of the institutions
which protected them, and hand over their bene
factors to the tender mercies of a religious pow
er which had filled the pages of history with
experiences of tire and sword, the rack and the
torture ?
True it was that the conservative powers of
the country were once more aroused for its pre
servation, and the result of their action was the
formation ol that organization of which you are
members. That is arose from au actual neces
sity for its existence, and that the country was
rile for it, js evident from the thousands of the
good, the patriotic and the wise who rushed to
add their names to the number of the enrolled;
is evident from resistless power and energy ol
its will, and from the procedphsdain from wtiieh
it crushes all opposition.
Throughout tue length and breadth of the
land, its principles were answered by chords in
the hearts ol tue Americrn people, aud one
year ago, this power, which rules supreme over
the political destinies of Georgia, which embra
ces among her sons some of the wisest and no
blest of tue State, could hardly have said to
have existed within its boundaries.
The order was establish!d iu this State on
the 27th of May, LBy4, in the City of Savan
nah, and now boasts 270 Councils.
, In regard to the spirit and object of the order,
I need say nothing on the present occasion, nor
would I be paying a proper degree of respect
to your intelligence or sincerity, did 1 proceed
to vindicate the order from the foul aspersions
with which the demagogue and foreigner assail
us. One thing, however, I would recommend;
LET THE MOST PROFOUND AND INVIOLATE SECRE-
■UI SHROUD IN UTTER DARKNESS OUR MOVEMENTS,
OCR PLANS, OUR NUMBERS. It is <0 OUT alliance
with mystery and uncf.rtanty that we owe our
great victories in the past, and on which we

Know Nothingism vs. The Laws
ot Georgia.
The able and eloquent speech of Mr. Ward ai
St. Andrew's Hall uas waked up many wuo
were iuthei to incredulous to the horrors. qt Know
Xothlngism. The port which perhaps lias at
tracted most attention is that which clearly show
that the oaths and obligations of the Ritual are
in direct antagonism to the peace ami good or
der of the society, and that obedience to them
would render the offender amenable to the pen
al laws _of Georgia.
-By this ritual' says Mr. Ward, “it is de
clared if the color oi the paper be red. it wiii

come prepared to meet it.

■ Air. Ward is a good lawyer, and in particular
.dmitted to be well acquainted with the Stat
lies of Georgia. We shall not therefore at
empt to add anything to what he said on tha'
point We may, however, be permitted to add
in support of his argument, further disclosures i
of the horrors of this secret political order, that
is seeking to control the destinies of the coun
try. The following is a correct extract from
the Ritual, as proscribed by the National
Council:
Public notice for a meeting is given by j
means of a piece of white paper in the shape of a ;
heart.
In the cities* the *** where the meeting is to
be held, will be written legibly upon the election
day said*** will denote*** were your presence
is needed. This notice will never be passed, but
will be*** or thrown upon the side walk with
a***in the centre.
' If information is wanting of the object of the
gathering, or of the place, &c., the inquirer will
ask of an undoubted brother where's men
The brother will give the information ts possessed
of it; if not, it will be yours and his duty to con
tinue the inquiry' and thus disseminate the call
throughout the brotherhood.
If the color of the paper be red, it will denote
actual trouble, which requires that you come
prepared to meet it.
The “cry of distress" —to be used only in time
of danger, or where the American interest re
quires an immediate assemblage of thebrethern
—is, oh, oh, oh. The response is hio. hio.
liio.
The “sign of caution”—to be given when a
brother is specking unguardedly before a stran
ger—is drawing the fore-finger and thumb to
gether across the eyes, the rest of the hand
being closed, which signifies “keep dark."
Iti intimate connection with these signs is
the following harried oath. Does it not contain
the elements of riot and bloodshed ? And is not
he who obeys it amenable to the penal laws of
Georgia?
"That you will, under all circumstances, if in
your power so to do, attend to all regular signs
or summons that may be thrown or sent to you
by a brother of this order; that you will answer
an imperative notice issued-by the proper au
thority; obey the command of the State Council
President, or his deputy, while assembled by
such notice, and respond to the calm of a sign or
a cry of the order, unless it be physically im
possible.
That these oaths and signs are not in reality
idle things, the terrible riot at Louisville is am
ple evidence.
The following is an extract from a letter from
“An Eye Witness” to the Indianapolis Sentinel
which sheds more lighten their proceedings end
ing in the dreadful scenes that occured:
“By 10 o’clock the city was under the con
trol of a lawless Know Nothing mob—-neither
life nor property safe. At this crisis, Hon.
William P. Thomasson, formerly a Whig men -
ber of Congress from the city, and a gentlemen
of high character and standing, mounted the
rostrum and implored them, as good citizens, to
desist from such a course. He had, however,
spoken but a few moments, when the Know
Nothing signal for blood was given, and he was
instaniiy knocked down by a club, in the hands
of some assassin who approached him in the
rear. About this time Colonel Preston, the an
ti-Know Nothing candidate for Congress, ap
peared in the First Ward, which is the large
Democratic ward, composed chiefly of German
naturalized citizens, and requested his friends not
to attempt to vote. He stated to them that the
polls were in the hands of the Know Nothing
bullies, that his friends could not approach the
polls in safety, and advised them to retire peace
ably to their homes and submit to disfranchise
ment rather than endanger their lives. The re
sult was, that out of 6,500 votes in the city, only
4.500 were polled. Two thousand Democratic
voters were by violence deprived of the right of
suffrage.”
Now it is very clear, says the Washington
Star commenting on this, that the terrible and
disgraceful occurrences in Louisville grew. out
of the fact that so large a portion of its citizens
had taken these extrajudicial and revolutionary
oaths so injurious to the public peace. It will
be seen above, that the programme for carrying
an election by a violence embraced in this ex
tract from the ritual, was literally carried out
Prentice gave the sign in his newspaper, in his
orders to the foreign voters not to presume to
exercise their legal rights ; in which article is
also embraced the order for the Know Noth
ings to assemble at the polls to prevent them
(the foreign born citizens) from exercising the
franchise.
Not content with compassing their frauds,
making our boasted liberty, the law, and equali
under our Government the merest mockery im
aginable, the ruffians so collected by the journal
and the red pieces of paper, and the "Oh-oh-oh,
(both of which last were in sight and heard ah
the day on the streets.) commenced to chase, beat
and maim foreign-born persons found in the
city's thoroughfares, assailing them with short
clubs loaded with lead, stones and knives. To
save their lives, thus soughts by an infuriated
mob, the Germans aud Irish in a minority ol
perhaps one-tenth the number of their actual
assailants, resorted to fire-arms.—Sav. Geor
gian.
•Concerning what is said of cities, the key to
the Kituai sa s: “Considered unnecessary to
decipher what is said in regard to cities.”
Washington’s Sentiments.
Wherever and whenever a Know Nothing
addresses the people he is sure to descant large
ly upon, and swagger over, the sentiments of
Washington, as expressed in letters alleged to
have been written by him in 1777 and 1778.
in which he alludes to commissions sought for
by certain adventurers in the army, and promo
tions sought for by commissioned officers, ol
foreign birth, then in the service. These opin
ions of the “ Great Father of his Country”
garbled to suit the occasion, and to deceive the
unwary, are pronounced from the stump witii
an effrontery truly ridiculous and disgusting.
Now, wherever and whenever this is done, let
the reply be this—that the illustrious Wash
ington, long after the Revolutionary AVar, de
clared
“The bosom of America isopen to receive,
NOT ONLY THE OPULENT AND RESPECTABLE
STRANGER. BUT THE OPPRESSED AND PERSECUTED
OF ALL NATIONS AND ALL RELIGIONS, WHOM WE
SHALL WELCOME TO A PARTICIPATION IN ALL OUR
RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES. "
But not only this, let the demagogues be
told, that long after, tiie formation of the Fed
eral Constitution, WASHINGTON, the re
nowned patriot, and hero of the war for inde
pendence, in the maintenance and advocacy ol
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY, said
-If I could have entertained the slightest ap
prehension that the Constitution framed at the
Convention where I had the honor to preside

er have placed my signature to it; and if 1 could

doubtless remember, I have often expressed my
sentiments that any man conducting himski.
as a good citizen, and being accountable
to God alone for his religious opinions
ought to be protected in worshipping th<
Deity according to the dictates ol his own con
science,”
If these two extracts from his written rpin
; lons, left like a legacy to the people, do not stop
the mouths of the demagogues who sacrilegious
; !y slander the memory of WASHINGTON.
I then from all such, let “die people pray to be de
' livered!
