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 must rest our hopes for the future. Unmask our batteries, tear away the veil which shrouds our proceedings, aud you introduce the first great element of weakness aud disorganization; you thereby shear the locks of the miguty Samp son, aud leave him powerless at the feet of his enemies. YOU THEREBY DESTROY THE ABILITY OF YOUR CO-LABOIL ERS TO ENTER INTO THE COUNCILS OF THE ENEMY AND THWART His MOST SKILLFULLY PLANNED MEAS URES. Heed not the reproaches oi men who, desirous of breaking your phalanx, attack this strong band of your power. Let them anim advert upon this obnoxious feature iu a party under our free government, doubtless they would takeextreme pleasure m frightening you from A CAUSE WHICH ENSURES YOUR SUCCESS Ulld their defeat. Be secret, vigilant and united, lor thus, and thus only shall you attain thehigb object of our enterprise and build around the sacred te apie of our institution a barrier im pregnable to the attacks of all enemies, whether loreigu or domestic. WILLIAM HONE. 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 ienote actual trouble, which requires that you come prepared to meet it. "Tiie Know Nothing is then sworn that if a | certain signal is given he will come prepared to • meet trouble. ill my Know Nothing friends ■xplaiu what is the meaning of this preparu- I lion? I ■■ What do we understand when a man tells us I lie is going out to meet trouble, and he is pre- Ipi red or fit? Is it not that he is armed?— .low is he to bear those arms? Openly What a spectable wound be presented, Ameri can freemen carrying arms to enforce their poli ■al rights! Secretly? There is a Statute ol the State which furbids it. ••For the time of danger a cry of distress is provided, which requires the immediate assem blage of the brethren. -Is there not a Statute of our State which di-, cares 'that if any two or more persons, either >\th or witout a common case ot quarrel, doai. mlawful act of violence, or any other act in a I . iolent aud tumultuous manner, such person su j tfeudiug shall be guilty of ariot. <!re.' Yet th ■ \ now Nothings are required immediately to os i emble at a given cry when their interest r> I juiree it. prepared by the very terms of then • dual, to meet danger, an consequently assem- I I >ling with a common cause of quarrel." ■ 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 might possibly endanger the religious rights oi auv ecclesiastical society, certainly 1 would nev er have placed my signature to it; and if 1 could not conceive tliut the General Government • night even be so administered as to render the I liberty of conscience insecure. I beg you wiii ; be persuaded that uo one would lie niQi-e zeal ; >us than myself to establish effectual, barrier against the horrors of spiritual tyranny, ami every species as religious persecution—for, you 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!
