time to think--to examine the measures
and the men proposed for their support.
In order, therefore, to give ample time
for all the preliminaries essential to a

the American Convention, to nominate a
candidate for Governor, convene in Nash

every county, at its earliest convenience,
appoint delegates to said Convention
We know it viii be said, by some, that
the time designated is too early, and that
we ought to wait until the nearer approach
Of the time for action arouses the energies
of the party. This sort Of argument has
done mischief heretofore, and may do SO
again, but VIC do hope it will not be urged,
and that the Americans will at once 60 to

nominee of the 4th Congressional Dis
-trict, N. Y, declines to run on the ground
that the friends Of Kelly, the Irish Of the
Five Points, would murder him, should he
consent to be a candidate. 1t would serve
him right, because he is one Of the party
that esteems the foreigner superior TO the
native. and has done his part towards
throwing open the battot,box to that law
less element, and to encourage that
arrogance, in the foreign citizens, which
makes them lift their hand against the

THE NoRTHERN ELECTIONS.

The Charleston Mercury offers the fol-
lowing views on the late elections at the
north for the contemplation Of its south.
ern democratic brethren:
If there were any two States in the
North which the democratic party and the
South could rely on for continued sup
port, those two States were Indiana and
Pennsylvania. They have become over
whelmingly anti-democratic. Indiana has
in the present Congress six democrats to
five black republicans. In the next Con-
gress, by the late elections, there will be
but four democrats to seven black repub-
licans. In Pennsylvania the defeat is
still more striking. Out of twenty four
Representatives there will DO but four
democrats. The Presidents State, county
and town, have all gone against his Ad-
ministration. The Immediate cause of
this result is, that the anti Lecompton or
Douglas democrats went over, as might
have been expected, to the black republi-
cans. We suppose, by this course, they
may be considered as no longer constitu.
ting any portion Of the democratic party.
The detection begun in the Senate is car
ried out in the elections. But it is due to
truth to say, that in the future policy to
be pursued with respect to Kansas and
our territories, and the tariff, there was no
difference between the regular democrats
who supported the Administration, and
the boiling democrats who opposed it,
The Lecompton and anti Lecompton dem
ocrats both took the ground that the
Kansas Conference Act should be violated
and that Kansas should be admitted into
the Union with or without the population
required by that act, whenever she applies
to be admitted. Both took the ground
that the tariff should be modified to give
increased bounties to the northern manu-
faeturer. So far as the principles and the
faith of the democratic party were con
cerned, there was no difference between
the two parties. The black republican,
true to his policy of land and tariff plum
der, insisted on enforcing it. The demo-
Gratis, of every stripe and color, closed
hands with them and joined in the Sec
tional foray to save their overthrow and
loss of power in the State. The Admins
tration-the South-the principles of the
democratic party-were thus most shame
fully abandoned and betrayed. They are
nevertheless defeated.

wise administration Of the Government,
OF American nationality and pure ballot
box propose to resist the vandal hordes
that are overrunning all, they should lose
no time In organizing, 1t has too often
been the fate of the American party 10
remain inactive until the locsfocos have

we advocate are essential TO the welfare of
the country-if, as we believe, the safety
OF the Republic depends upon the success
OF those principles, il il grave error to
omit any fair means by which they can be
advanced, and their Importance impressed
upon the people. The first step towards
success, is u thorough organization, and IN
accomplish this, is tho work of time

J. B6y- The Union e Americas exclaims :
---"Yoans man, attach yourself to the
Democracy" oh, by all means, young
man, attach yourself TO the democratic
party but beware Of mistakes. Which
is the partyf is an important question
just aow. There is party, by that name,
headed by old Buck; there IL another
headed by the little Giant; there is an
other which Yancey aspires to lead, and
there is fourth, at present without a
leader, that has straycd of after false gods,
such as tariff and Internal improvements.
All claim TO be The party, and all claim to
be national. The first of these parties
has been repudiated, as spurious, by the
North, but it still holds the empty money
bags of the Government, and since il is a
pleasure even to be where money has been,
"young man" may be lured into the ranks
of the party headed by the federal locofoco.
We warn him, therefore, to look we'll about
him, and to consult with Breckenridge
and other locOfoco rats that are deserving
the sinking ship, before he makes up his
mind to "bend the knee that thrift may
follow fawning." Oh, yes, "Young man,
attach yourself to the Democracy r. but
find out, first, what and where it is.

s&- The following extract we clip from
an article in the Memphis Bulletin, on the
reorganization of parties:
"That such general process is going
on, which may result in the growth of a
solid and compact Opposition to the ex-
listing rule of the democratic party. as
that party is now represented in the Ad-
ministration at Washington, is indubita.
BILE. There are causes which could not fail
of such influences. Chief among these
is the palpable fact, that it is no longer
the democratic party which elected Mr..
Buchanan, that is represented by his Ad-
ministration, but faction Of that party.
whose heads are scheming for the success
ion and the spoils of Office. ProAieate
and extravagant in expenditures. their
whole power and influence is being exert
ed to break down one of their rivals
Hedged around by the egotism of official
position, breathing only an atmosphere of
official selfshness and corruption, they
have forgotten the people, who spake them
into existence, or if remembering them do
so only audaciously to attempt to seduce
by corruption or to intimidate them. The
people would be false to themselves if there
was not among them that stir of impulse
to resistance, which is alike the bond of
political party and the fountain source of
political revelation.
Locally, here in Tennessee, likewise.
there are causes TO produce changed party
relations. Within the bosom of the dem.
ocratic party there has, in these latter
times, grown up sect Of RadicaAs, who,
claiming to be the purest Of all pure dem.
ocrats, would plunge the State into all the
evils and injuries of transition stage of
"tinkering with the currency" in the wild
hunt after "hard money" These gold
hunters would upset the whole existing
system Of ramified credits in the commu.
nifty, in order to effect their ideal of a
more perfect system--ignorant or regard
less of the consequences 1t requires no
distinguished politician to awaken that
practical common -sense Of the people
which will decree, that IL such be democ.

What, then, with the sohemine and
plOttings of the back stairs influences mn
on the Administration at Washington
and the headlong radicalism of the would

self fast enough. We hope NO one win

E9r When we take up some of our ex
changes and read glowing accounts of the
Fairs, held at various points, we feel con.
siderably mortified that Montgomery

and wealth, is so far in the back ground
in the rear of movement so well cal.
culatcd to stimulate every branch of in

enlightened interest in the progress of the

the premium that stimulates, but the com
mendable pride, so essential to success in
any calling; and the emulation which
that pride begets, is not restricted to the

say The Charleston Mrrcury goes into
scstacies over the reported declaration of
the President that he will maintain the
unity of the democratic party, at all
hazards. And how does he 60 to work to
effect it? BY removing from Office every
man who dares to differ with him in cstima-
ting the correctness Of Douglas position.
LIS it any part of the Presidents official
duty to take any party under his especial
charge, or to crush the freedom of speech I?
He is elected for the purpose of seeing
that the laws are faithfully executed, for
the common protection and benefit of all,
and as an honest officer, he can know no
party. The Constitution guarantees to
every citizen the right to express his
honest opinions, and to vote as his own
unbiased judgment dictates and the
whole spirit of our institutions is adverse
to any interference with this right from
any quarter. And when the President
exerts the power which his position and
patronage give him, to trample upon this
right-to extinguish, by bribery, or by
the penalty of removal, that manly in
dependence which makes up national free
dom, he DIVORCES widely from the line of
his duty, and becomes tyrant rather
than the agent of the people. And when
large fraction of the citizens, headed by
high intelligence, not only endorse, but
commend this tyranny, the love of liberty,
regard for the honor of the country, and
public virtue are fearfully on the wane.-
Such is the present degraded condition of
the nation. The President has become
the guardian of party, and instead of
moving, with dignity, in his prescribed
orbit, he enters the political arena, as the
leader of party-tarnishing the national
honor, degrading his high position and
violating the spirit of our institutions.
Mr.. Jefferson, the reputed father Of
locofocoism, whilst he was President, wrote
to Governor Morris, that the federal
officers were interfering too much with
elections, and asked if he should admonish
them privately, or by proclamation
Buchanan, who hated and opposed Jeffer-
son, now boldly takes upon himself to in
terfere in elections, and such men as the
editor Of the Mercury find in the danger
GUS Intervention subject of high COM
mendation. IF an ofice-holder believe
the position Of Douglas to be the true one,
what is it to Buchanan, provided said
officer faithfully discharges his duty p
Yet, forgetting that no should be the
President Of the whole people, he places
himself at the head of faction and, with
the arrogance of dictator, lays down his
opinion as the absolute measure of other
mems political faith; and stranger vet,
the leading organs of southern chivalry
applaud the foul prostitution of Executive
patronage that debases the free American
citizen to the condition of q slave. To
maintain the unity of party, the best in
terests of the country are overlooked, in
dividual freedom is crushed, the spirit of
our institutions perverted and the honor
and dignity of the Government forfeited
