If they ob jected to the Democracy because tlie doc trine of free trade was not developed to its fullest capacity, it was a hopeless effort to se duce these men into a forgetfulness of that issue and to ovorlay them by a powerful Whig sympathy with protection. So it was with tho Slavery issue. Democratic Know Nothings, when invited into the order, thought they saw in it the germ of a great i fought on the Colorado river. For it was contended that from the day the retreat began from that point the cause became more and more demoralized, and thestrength of the army weaker. Hundreds at this day are firmly convinced that the battle of San Ja cinto was delivered by Houston under the desperate sense uf his situation—for he was in a trap, and there was no chance to run any further.

Thence proceeding thro’ “ Old Whitehall street,” they marched to the large Methodist Brick Church, where they were entertained by the various litera ry festivities of the day. The number of spectators was so large that even the doors and windows were crowded. The choir was led by Mr. Irving, whose attainments well qualify him for such a position. The Declaration of Independ ence having been read by Mr. M. L. Lenore, we were highly ontertained by the superior declamation of Masters Wm. Nwese, M. Markham, II. Darnall, I. O. McDaniel, A. S.

Years ago, our Fathers advanced ahead of the world in proclaiming absolute religions liberty, a : complete severance of civil and religious rights. We have swung backwards; and i now, when toleration has begun to be ex ercised abroad throughout the world, the i fanaticism of the middle ages comes upou i us.

With such pertinacity, do the Know Nothings stick to their opinion of the Pope’s civil su premacy in foreign countries, despite the must solemn assertions of the Catholics to the contrary, and all history hearing upon the subject, that a candid man is forced to believe that persecution wna their main de sign, and that the clause referred to in their resolution was hut a specious, pretext to cover an odious measure. Be this as it may the resolution and the action on it herence to religious creed or worship. The exclusion of the Catholics from all offices under the Government would, we appre hend, come fully within the meaning of the terms. We will close this article by quoting on this point from the prince of English historians and essayists.

The Govern ment becomes, virtually, a Government of Protestants, a machine for the protection oi the Protestant church, until the same im pulse which has carried it thus far, shall have confined its liberality within stricter bounds. We makean objection to the Phil adelphia platform, that it has embraced within it the subject of religion at all, and we deny, most unequivocally, that Christi anity is “ an element of our political sys tem.” With a most reverential respect for the religion under whose pious doctrine our youth was cultured, we hesitate not to say, that thi.*- •- a Government with no religion, neither : itholic, Protestent, Jewish, nor 51ahomi in, bin, simply a community of in dividuals banded together for the protection of the civil rights of each member who com poses it. With religion our Government has nothing whatever to do. That question has been left »o the control of other bodies, independent of, and entirely disconnected with it. Such a doctrine implies no infe riority of religious when compared to civil interests. It means simply that the guar dianship of these two interests have been divided. The civil rights of the individual, claim the solo and exclusive attention of the State—his religious rights and duties belong to another jurisdiction.

Georgia a lull outlie Platform of 1850, Whatever division there may be in our State among politicians as to some princi ples, and the election of this or that man, there is one question, the “paramount one of the day,” upon which we are one people.— The Democratic Convention of June 5th, holding “the American Union secondaiy only in importance to the rights nnd princ- ples it was designed to perpetuate, gave their unqualified adhesion to the 4th Reso lution—Georgia Platform,” and express ed their “inalterable determination to main tain \t in its letter and spirit.” That is the true doctrine. The Corner Stone at Co lumbus wanted to know* if any other than the Columbus Times, would pledge himself by it iu every extremity. The Atlanta In telligencer, in a strong article, says he is one; as also the Augusta Constitutionalist. As for ourselves,, this is the last line—4th Re solution—we wish to see drawn on paper, and upon this subject: “Sink or swim, live or die,” we plant ourselves upon and go with it. Every Georgian is in heart and mind committdd to it. When that is tram pled upon we know that they are prepared to say with Troup, as they of right ought to, “the argument is ended, let us stand by our swords.” The determined assertion of our rights is the guarrantee of their being re-pected.—South.
