President A. B. LOngStrcet.

This distinguished divine, scholar, and pa
trot, has written two Of the most clear, cogent
and convincing letters against know nothing
ism, that we have read from any quarter
The last of these letters, is addressed to the
preachers of the Methodist church south, who
have joined that proscriptive, and intolerant
order. Judge Longstreet has appealed to
them in very numerous, and opposite quota
tons from the scriptures showing that their
conduct and the doctrines of the new order to
which they have attached themselves, are sub
versive of the plaincst teachings of the great
founder of the christian religion, whom they
profess to follow and obey, and must lead to
the worst consequences in destroying the peace
prosperity and happiness of the people, if the
spirit of bigotry, selishness, and persecution
which it engenders is not arrested, before it is
too late. If reason has not lost its balance
truth its sway, clear, lucid, and impressive ar
gument its convincing power, and the aifec
tionatc appeals Of long and well tried chris
tan father, that respect and consideration, t.
which they are SO justly entitled, his lettc
: will not fail to have very healthy and saluto
Iry influence in bringing these misgui ded minis
ters back, to sense of their religious duties
SO strongly presented, and so ably set forth i
this production His next letter will be at
dressed tc the church, and will be looked fo
with much interest By the reading communt!
We tender our gratitude for these noble effort
in the cause of truth, justice, and right, an
: trust he may long live, to enjoy the consoln
reflection of having done noble service f'
: his country, and his church.
The Feliciana Democrat., 1855-09-08
Hon. Jerry Clemens.

The big Know Nothing gun, it seems, could
not be elected to the State Legislature from
the county he lives in. lie was beaten by
more than two hundred majority. The people
of Alabama, know what estimate to place up
on his shifting course, and upon his recent let
ter, which has been lauded to the skies by near
ly every know nothing paper in the whole I'm
ion, as the greatest document yet published up
on what they style American principles" 1t
would appear that this powerful document,
was only powerful in the praises Of the Know
Nothing party presses, for in Alabama, where
they expected it to work wonders, the demo
cratic majority is greater than ever. The dem
ocratic Governor is elected by twelve thousand
majority. We have majority of thirty one
on joint ballot, in the Legislature, and six out
of eight members of Congress. If Mr.. Glenn
mems will write another Know Nothing letter,
