Subordinate and incidental to i means that you ra these material surroundings, vve had three speeches. The boss builder of the Phila delphia Platform, the gentleman oneo known as F. IT. Cone iu Middle Georgia, but now called it, the mountains Pope Cone, gave us the lirst, which ho commenced, wo hear, at 1"J o’clock, aud ended somewhere about 1. We need not tell tho State that this gentle man ha- gone doraugod from a morbid anx- natives.” That the public may be able to detect the outgoings of the.-’ we will give them the cue. When the D.-etor steps back j just two paces in the rear, aud ’after raising 1 hits right hand as high over iris head as pos- j ible, if ho brings itdown with a sharp jerk, like a boy striking a ball in a game of ‘[/ices,” you may rest assured the Doctor h> Id him accountable for the sentence just uttered, for ho has j thought on it some, and written on it much i We are thus particular, as Dr. Miiier owes ; a heavy accountability for tins following, ' | and as he gave us the “fices" lick, all through these portions of his address, he . cannot plead the heat of debate as an ex-. I cuse. I Tbe speaker uttered the following grave i lety about the overthrow of our blessed re- i allegations, with as much solemnity as if! ligton m these States, aud from being too j he stood U pon the brink of the grave. He powerfully exercised about spiritual mat- | sa ;j t i, e f ( , re ign element has been ,-tirred to ■ terr generally. It was his opinion last ; profoundest depths, and vve must either B cduesdy, that all Catholics were danger- . conquer it or fall by it; that this was true ous to our liberty, because their religious j 0 j- thc Catholic religion, and that it was' organism made it a necessity for them to be J spre ading itself, and covering the whole face j against u> it the Pope required it, and lie | ,,f the country, and would engulph h ; that j said he was against all foreigners and all j we we re standing on the brink of a second Catholics, and so was the public sentiment Revolution—that a second war of indepen- ..I the country. lie has been some days up ! donce had to be fought in this country, not | between Whig and Democrat—not between j Federalist and Republican—but between J j foreigner and anti-foreigner—Catholic and i j anti-Catholic. Here, in these two or three ' j entenees, embodying as much pestilent ■ e ror and anti-republican bigotry as ever ■ fell from a mortal lips in the samecompn-s, i vve have the gist of all that was delivered of: ! the lest moment in a very 1 nig address, and ; in fact in these rash and unfounded asser tions, we have tho substance of the Carters ville mass meeting. Dr. Miller here ended his sermon on the ills and horrors of the heterodox and un- American religion eallod the Catholic, and i Mr. Tidwell began something about the ’••’tten Democracy, and he, ton, seemed to nave an idea that he smelt something.— 'lay be lie did, though the investigation of ; rliat was a matter of no moment, so we left him to hosc out the truth by himself He is another one, vve suppose, who is disgusted at the wild hunt after i ffice,” md vve don’t blauie him, for vve believe he has “ drawn all his covers blank,” or at east he lias had no better luck than to catch me Solicitor Generalship. The whole au dience seemed to lose sight of the speaker, i md we all formed ourselves into nice little •onversational sets, and the speaker’s voice having a charming drowzy buzz about it, . ve were soothed as by thc noise of bees, and >ve had a delightful time of it. At precise- : !y four, and at the very height of Mr. Tid well’s conversazione, the meeting fizzled out merely becauso there was not another idea in the “ locker.” But we are not through and have just arrived at what we began thi- irticle for. We call again upon the people ■f Georgia to be warned in time and to mark well that Know-Nothingi-m is civil war.— As we alighted from the cars the very first • ght that arrested our attention was a man stabbed and dripping with gore—a horrid right. With our own eyes, while waiting j for the departure of our train, vve saw five rencounters, and we were told by one well t posted on thc combats of the day that there were at least twenty fights in Cartersville ‘ Wednesday’. A poor old fellow, who sang , out that lie was “ a TO Democrat,” got his quietus by a blow on the head and was ; walked over for hours by tbe crowd like a dead dog. We saw two men leap from a door, ono literally wearing a mask of blood and the other with the top of his bead apparently knocked in. In an instant a pistol fired and down dropped a Herculean frame as dead apparently as pow der and lead could make any living flesh.— ’ We have seen much of our country in all J the phases of our society, from the Roanoke i to the Brazos, but never before have vve wit- 1 nessed such rage, such panting for a chance ’ to do evil, such lawless and uncurbed out- : rages on the peace and lives of men as we 1 witnessed Wednesday. Men with guns, i men with drawn swords, with side arms, ■ with bludgeons, seemed to be possessed by ! tiie demon of slaughter and to be raving j What^wi 11 'the ■ * n ^ ,elr pursuit after blood. Dr. Mil- , ler asked from the stand, why was all this I violence in these latter days ? and he seem-1 ed to wish to turn it to account for his par- ! ty. The blame is not with any old political! organization that exists now, or ever did j exist in this country before. But it springs j directly from this unholy war on men sim- . ply becaufe they dare to vote their own way , . ■ , , , .i - . and from this crusade against a religion ! working men, who stop labor when nothing , ” ® is left to be done? Among the “rotten cmc” is Baldwin, Master Machinist, a man who the country, and had not received the last K eeks’ schnlide of the- Order, as given in the Savannah ItepnOtican. A r cxt Wednes day the “Pope” will shift his grotyad, and take sides with the Catholic K. N’s. of L m- isiana. The speaker proved that there was rto Democratic party—nnwhereonthis green earth; that in Pennsylvania, in Ohio— every where North it was dissolved through Freesoilism, and everywhere South through the “dry rut,” or ted rot, as he facetiously said. Judge Cone, it seems, has another oeculiar trait iu his craze. He Imagines he noils something had whenever he talks of i Democrat, not suspec ing tli it hr him>•?{/! like Torn Moore's ruined smell bottle, can’t 'et rid of his own perfume—do with hiuia- vou may. Really aud seriously, let us sug gest to Judge Cone that this figure <>f his i- retting to be stale and offensive, and suj.- oose lie will just consider that a part only if the Democracy arc rotien, and that he. i that part. We are certain be is egotist enough to be covetous of even this di-.s//;xc- ■ion. In a word. Judge Cone’s speech was i failure, and proved a hard bore even to lii- •wn sot, for vve saw the mister of cerein >- lies more than once seeking relieffroin tin- .(terminable twaddle of this Luther the 2d ■>y surveying the crowd with Iris back tarn- l on thc speiker. We have hoard ita<sor ied that Judge Cone was never yet known to have finished a speech ; but he quit as vve -tated, s itae where about one o’clock. The Rev. Dr. Miller next addressed the meeting, md began by offering this material propo sition, to wit: that the t/rand aim of th■■ American party in Georyia was to beat Gov Johnson! We call upon all Cherokee to make a note of this pi-eguant admission.— Iu pursuance of this lofty aim, of the lofti est ol all American parties, the Rev. Dr was earnest, ho was Joud, ho was witty—in short, ha pitched into Gov. Johnson. He gave it us his suffrage that Gen. Wofford was as honest as needful, aud he circulated thc idea that he did not know what the good old General was put in office for, unless it was to redeem thc “rest of the rotten con cern,'' a> i lie handful of good was needed to save 8od ui. As a lv. N. is sure to do. about every other possible proposition that ho lays down, iu live minutes after this was spoken, no strauger ou earth would have bought the noble old Georgian on Dr. Mil- lev"-. certificate, for two cents in the dollar. We thought Dr. Miller's language an out rage on the feelings of gentlemen, whom we know well, who arc iu posts of trust and re sponsibility ou the State Road. We feel as sure as vve can be of any thing, that Major Cooper, the present Superintendant of the W. & A. Railroad, has no superior in the South for capacity, energy and fidelity, as a R. R. officer. There is the master of Transportation, a man made of whalebone, and who has learned to love the labor of his desk better than Dr. Miller ever loved an office. Go when you will to his depart ment. and you will find the ropes are all “taut.” and he is just the man that knows how to fiuger them doctor say to McPherson, a man with a soul as big sis a church, and as far removed from a mean thing or a “rotten,” as Dr. Miller’s politico-religious bigotry is from the meek and lowly charity of the faith he professes. What will he say of Brown- sou, of Alexander, of Jones, of Bartlett,— ave, of the last man in that team of hard- that thousands of American citizens pro- j fess. It all comes from the palpable, stun- ; ning fact, that Know-Kuthinyism is cicii 1 will teach even the Rev. Dr. Miller, if he is ever so fortunate as to make his acquain tance. that a man may have coat dust on iris hands and yet be a gentleman. But what can we say of the ingratitude of Dr. Miller in these unjust and libellous ; board. Of this amount, 100,01)0 bushels words towards Supervisor Barron. The ■ went to.

We would call the attention of our readers to the advertisement of Hatcher’s Patent Rotary Shingle Machine, to be found in another column. We believe we are simply doing a public service, when we recommend all of our friends who feel an interest in the introduction and use of valu able labor-saving improvements, to call at the Passenger Depot, and examine this wonderful and truly beautiful invention, for drawing shingles. This machino has been but very recently patented, and is said to be far in advance of any other invention of the kind heretofore made. By this machine 15,000 shingles, perfectly true and uniform, may be drawn in a day, and the work when performed, is far better done than it con possibly be by hand. Four hundred good shingles to the hand, is considered a fair day’s work, by the old drawing knife method, and we do not know, in our obser vation of home work, a greater bore than making shingles by hand. The invention of the Rtoary Shingle Machine, has long been a desideratum with us, and if the bene fits of tlris valuable improvements can be made available in the price at which it is put to the masses, we are very sure it will mutually benefit the inventor and tho pub lic. Let all that can. call and see for them selves. Jonesboro,’ August 1,1855. Coi. A. A. Gaulding—Sir: In justice to myself and mv Catholic fellow-citizens of the United States, I propose to meet any of thc Know Nothing orators twenty days from this date, in Atlanta, in order to discuss one of their main principles and sweeping charges, that is to say, the temporal power of the Pope of Rome over the members of the Church, and our disloyalty to our adopt ed country, or any other charge they wish to make, the Demosthenes of the Mountains, and the Rev. gentleman of LaGrange, and the gallant Judge of Greensboro’, not ex cepted. Thomas Byrne, a foreign-born Catholic. All the Anti Know Nothing papers in the State, will give the above three con spicuous insertions, and forward their ac counts to tlris office for payment.— Empire State. Now, Gentlemen, here is a chance for you. You have asserted from tho public stand and through your press, that our Catholic citi zens owe superior civil allegiance to the Pope. You have done this without contra diction, and therefore, you have made such assertions pass for proof. Now, sirs, here comes a respectable gentleman—we know him tr be such—who offers to discuss the matter with you. You will surely not fail to make good the charges you have brought against him. and his religious friends. But we believe that Mr. Byrne will have no op ponent. Know Nothingism prefers to con demn a man unheard. Groundless asser tions and reckless deunciationa is the food it best thrives on. We invite all persons who are sick of hearing men from the stump, and through the press, talk of Catho licity, not one of whose tenets they have ever read, thought of or understand, to hear Mr. Byrne, when he shall appear in this city. 'Ve know nothing of the gentleman’s qualifications as an orator, bat we know that he is a respectable and an intelligent man. [From the Zanesville Democrat. July 21.] Singular Phenomenon—Are we to have Volcanoes in toe West?—Captain Briscoe, of the steamer Tishomingo, says that on Thursday, while the boat was on her way up to this port, one of the strangest possible sights presented itself to tbe eyes of all on board. The boat was about 75 miles from Louisville. Suddenly at one side of the boat, and not more than 40 feet distant, the water in the river boiled up for a space of 40 feet square and to a height of not less than 10 feet. It boiled and bubbled at a fearful rate, and hissed and foamed like a thousand boiling cauldrons. Then there came up to the sur face a light and very porous substance of a dark color, which was so light as to float on the river, its upper edge fully two feet and a half ahove the level of the river. Some of the passengers were very con siderably alarmed, if not absolutely fright ened. On their account Capt. B. did not stop to collect any of the floating substance. We wish he could have done so. It might have led to some important revelation. g-a^lt is asserted by the Know-Nothings that foreingers cannot be naturalized in England, And tlris assertion is given ns a reason wh v we ought not to naturalize for- eigners. The truth is, that, by statute 7 and 8 Viet. c. 00. entitled “An Act to amend the laws relating to aliens,” the Home Sec retary is empowered to grant a certificate of naturalization to any fureigener, which en titles him to vote, hold freehold property, and all the rights of a British subject, with in the United Kingdom, except a .-eat in the privy council. The Secretary requires that tbe applicant should present a memo rial praying for the grant, and stating of what friendly state he is a subject: his age, profession, whether married and has any children, aud whether he intends to con tinue to reside in the United Kingdom. He mu«t verify the memorial by affidavits; and by the declaration of four housholders vouch ing also for the respectability of the memo rialist. There is no difficulty whatever at tending the application. Risen from tbe Dead. We notice in the Savannah papers an account of a large an enthusiastic anti- Know-Nothing Meeting in that city. Among the speakers was Judge G. H. Howard, who has recently declared his independence af the dark lantern conclave. We copy a paragraph from the account of the meeting. Judge Howard was then loudly called for, and took the stand. Like his mend, who nad preceded him he had been a Know- Nothing, and stood there to-night as one “risen from the dead.” [Loud laughter and applause.] While on a visit tc Colum bus. he had been induced by thc specious representations and entreaties of a friend to become a member of the order. He did so. however, only on the express understanding that he could leave when he thought proper. With tlris salvo he had gone through the various oaths, and had been inducted into tbe several degrees. He had been grossly deceived, and felt himself absolved. Ho had been called a traitor, had been posted through tho lodges of the State as such, was a marked man. It annoyed him but little ; he had done nothing wrong, and "had viola ted no promise. But he was now. a frte and independent man, and could look the world boldly in the face, which he could not bofore. Judge Howard’s expose of tho oaths, tricks and principles of the secret or der was received with immenso applause.— At almost every sentence the room resound ed with loud laughter and cheers. A Treaty with the Sandwich Islands. —Yesterday, says the Washington Star of Saturday last, after we went to press, we understand that the Secretary of State and Chancellor Lee, Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary fr.>m the Hawai ian Kingdom, concluded the negotiation of a treaty between the United States and the Sandwich Islands, mutually advantageous and highly important iu relation to the commercial intercourse betweeu tho two countries. We have every reason to believe that it simply secures to both countries the advantages of a commercial intercourse on a fixed basis, similar to that on which our commercial relations with other civilized countries is fixed. MONDAY', AUGUST G. Judge Warner’s Speech. This gentleman addic---.ed the people of our city Saturday n: -ruing, for two hours, in a speech of signal ability. We speak confidently when we say, that in no in stance since the opening of the campaign have we listened to an argument so cogent and irrefragible, upon the truo tendency and design of that skillfully concocted de vice of Federalism called the American Platform. Judge Warner labored to im press his audieuce with the momentous truth, that thc question of Slavery and the relations of the general Government to- Tixe Comrnsi. LOOK ON THIS PICTURE. THEN ON inis.
