The Meeting of the Grand Council of the American Ordfir of Kentucky Amer- ican Mass Meetings at nisht. The Grand Council of the American order of Kentucky meets on Wednesday next at 10 o'- clock A.'.M. in the Odd Fellows' Hall, fur the transaction of business. On Tuesday night and on Wednesday night there will be mass meet- ings of the American party in the Hall of the House of Representatives, at which speeches may be expected from distinguished friends of the cause. As there will probably be many more strangers in town than can find lodgings at the hotels, our American friends in Frankfort who can conven- iently entertain, at their private houses, some of their brethren from a distance, will please leave their na.nes or with Mr. G. W. Lrw!8 at the Cimmmwcallh office, specifying the number thev Van each receive. Tac .a'.i3'.ic C'mrs'i and Civil Liberty. A good de il of trouble has been taken of late, by certain Catholic Bishops, and other 'teachers ft::) defenders of the dogmas of the Roman church, to per.iuvde the community that Roman Catholicism is not only compatible with civil lib- erty, but th.it it is greatly promotive of the growth an .1 Btability of free institutions. Some of them, indeed, contend and insist, with the greatest pertinacity and apparent earnestness, that the Roman Catholic faith and church gov- ernment are ir.diipensahh to the full development an 1 the permanency of republican freedom. And they most aiTectiunately and solemnly warn us, the people of the United States, who are en- deavoring to be Protestants and freemen at the same time, that unless w e give up our heresy and return to the true faith and to the bosom of the "'only true and infallible church," we shall all go to the devil, politically, in this world, and in- dividually, in the next. We don't like to contradict people who assume to teach by direct and infallible inspiration, but if we may be allowed to make an inquiry, there is one little matter which we would like to have explained; and it is this: If the Roman Catho- lic church is in truth so favorable to civil free- dom, how does it happen that the people of Rome, and of the States of the church, have so very little of that freedom? There is a coun- try over which the Pope has had supreme and direct civil power, and acknowledged civil jurisdiction, for centuries; how comes it that that country does not present an example of a free government and a happy people, for the emulation of the rest of the woiid? Why has not the church conferred free institu- tions upon a country in which she has had, for ages, unrestricted scope for the exercise of her pleasure and her beneficence? How cornea it, that the government there has been so long a grinding despotism ? How did it happen that when the people of that country, a very few years ago, rose in their own might, and cast off the civil bondage that was crushing them, the Pope called in the aid of French soldiery to replace that bondage upon his people? And how comes it that he now sits there a civil despot, maintain- ed upon his throne by French and Austrian bayo- nets, while he sways his sceptre over an unwill- ing people? Shall we be told that the people of the Pope's civil dominions in Italy are not fit for freedom? If this be so, it only shifts and increases the dif- ficulty. It does not dissipate it; still less docs it explain it with credit to the church. If the peo- ple of the Papal States are not fit for freedom, why are they not fit? There is no bar of inferior- ity of racei no inherent inborn incapacity. They are of the blood of the ancient Romans; and Europe has no better. Why are they not as fit for free domnotv, under professed Christian rule, under the immediate influence and control of one who professes to be the Vice gerent of God upon earth is they were in the days of idolatry, and under the instruction and influence of such heathen leaders as Junius Brutus? Who has instructed the minds, developed the souls, and fashioned the whole character of that people? The church the church, alone. The church has had control of them at every point for ages. She has ruled their spirits as well as their bodies. She has fashioned and controlled their government, their devotion, their education, and their amusements. They have been in her hands as clay in the hands of the potter. She has made them what they are. If she in- deed understands civil freedom and loves it, win-ha- she not educated there a race of noble free- men, as cx amplars for the rest of the world, and iniugurateJ among them a government, adapted to the highest developemcnt of human greatne-- s an 1 hum m hippiness? Never had any organ; z ttion a chanci to do si much good; never has one accomplished so little. It is for the) church of Rome to armver, why Italy has no civil freedom? Why she has none of the substantial improvements and advantages which the progress of the age has brought to other lands? Why her fields are still plowed with a sharpened stick, and all her implements of indu-tr- y such as might become a s age? Why grass and mendicants grow sponta- neously in the streets of her cities, while the mag- nificent relics of art which heathen ages have left her, are suffered to fill away by slow decay, or be torn down to furnish materials for the ignoble dwellings of her degraded sons? It is, in short, for the church to answer, why so many of the people of her immediate civil dominions, are born bastards, and live beggars, thieves, brigands, and assassins; and why, among the best of them, ambition seldom aspires beyond the copying of a picture, the manufacture of a plaster doll, the singing of a song, the teaching of a monkey to dance, or the turning of a hand-organ- ? Let the Roman church answer how it happens that the noblest race of antiquity has, under her special care, dwindled down to a mere race of animated puppets; and when she has answered, we will talk again of her claims to be the grand patron of civil freedom and political wclfar. its aisles and lobbies and galleries assembled last night to listen to an m;iin.s by Hon. Gar- nett Davis upon the great American question; and those who went, were well repaid Mi. Davis spoke for move than three hours, and such a speech is seldom heard. It was a con- tinuous succession of impregnable arguments, happy illustrations, and most eloquent and pow- erful appeals. At the hue hour of the night at which we write, we have no time or room to at- tempt any thing like a sketch of the speech; and indeed it was a speech too full of facts and too rich in eloquence to be susceptible of sketching. We hope Mr. Davis will find time to prepare, his speech for the press, and give it, to his coun- trymen to read at their . In any ease, there were some things, at least, in it which the press canncjt allow to remain imprinted; and here- after, when we have more time, we must recall them as best we may. We need not scarcely add. that Mr. D. was cheered throughout with the applause of his au- ditors. Indeed is too feeble n word to express the enthusiastic and vociferous delight with which many of his noble sentiments and stirring appeals were received, For llio Commonwealth. The .Vtl. atitagcs o! a State Agricultural Sccietj . Ma. Editor: Allow mc to enumerate, brief- ly, sonic of the advantages of a State organiz:- - tion, such as is now contemplated in Kentucky: 1st. It will embrace and foster all the interests directly and remotely connected with agricul- ture throughout the whole State; which none but such an association cm have the means to ac- complish. Cd. It will ultimately extend agricultural ex- hibitions to feeble and remote sections of the Siate, where such exhibitions could not be sus- tained by individual enterpr'ze alone. Cd. I: wiil thereby diffuse better stock, and Stimulate ii;i;.roven.eiit throughout these remote and feeble sections. '!:li. It will g: e :!;.' assist in developing and bringing into public notice, the timber, coal, iron, salt, marble, ,'.'c, which abound in those portions of the State, 5th. It will cause to be collected and published a vast amount of statistical Information as to the stock, staples, and vest-tabl- and mineral resources of the State. 6th. It will bring into public notice, and there- by into profitable market, a large amount of timber and mineral lands in ihe remote and mountainous portions of the State. Tth. It will enhance the value of much real estate, thereby adding to individual wealth, and augmenting the resources of revenue to the treasury of the State. 8th. By stimulating the production of wore and better stock, and of more and better crops, staples, ic, it will greatly add to individual prosperity, and augment all the resources of the State. 9th. By reason of larger premiums, and great- er exhibitions, we will induce spectator, from ad jacent States, who will thus become purchasers of our stock, crops, staples and products of all sorts. 10th. By means of larger premiums than coun- ty societies can oiler, a larger amount of agri- cultural implements of all sorts, and of improv- ed construction, will be brought from a greater distance, and will thus be dirl'used through all portions of the State. 11th. By assistance from the State, premiums can be offered which w ill be iarge enouch to cause exhibitors to keep their animals, articles and products of all sorts on exhibition at the fair grounds, during the entire exhibition; thus giving all persons a much better opportunity for sale or purchase. 12th. By assistance from the State, steam and horse power can be pro-- , idc-- at the State Fairs, for putting into motion all sorts of machinery, thereby much better displaying its practical ope- ration. 13th. By the assistance of the State, the ex- change and distribution of valuable books, seeds, roots, and plants, wiil be greatly facilitated and promoted. By offering premiums for essays on all subjects connected with practical agriculture, a great stimulus will be given to intellectual cul- ture, and much valuable information will be elic- ited and published ; and the agricultural profes- sion will thereby be greatly profited, elevated, and dignified. loth. By the endowment of a State Society, we will be placed on an equal footing with our agricultural bretiiren of adjacent States, and thus our State pride will be gratified, and our will be increased; and we will be reliev- ed from the imputation of beint: deficient in in- telligence and enterprise. But enough, Air. Editor; time will not allow thc enumeration of a tithe of the blessings of a Stale Society, well organized and endowed; and I will close with only an allusion to the b!cs:ings which will result from the friendly association of pcrsuiis of all poiitic.d parties and of all our sis- ter States. Most respectfully, A Fr.rrND to ..a:t:cL-LTiT.;- . Franklin eo., Jan. 21st, ISf.C. Dirk de.i'iiitr power! around thy w.iy, The wrecks of huann gran leur lav; Oblivion's waters, cold an J black, Roll onward in tiie gloomy track, A:iddirl:!y hide from mor'ti! ken, The traces where thy course hath been. The proudest things tint earth his kuoirn, The gorgeous splendor of a throne, .The crest and kingly diadem Toy peerlej; arm Im scittered them, And power that shook the world, with dread.

Successive years around thee Cow, Yet leave no traces on thy brow; Revealing and destroying all: As firmly now thy footsteps fall, As when at first thy course was given, And thy dread limits mark'd by Heaven. Mysterious power! still deep and strong Thy tide of years shall roll along; Toe sun shall leave his home on high, The moon and stars of heaven shall die: And thou shall be the last to fall, The conqueror and the end of all.

(Platform and Pninciplcs of tlte American Party. I.

II. The cultivation and developement of a sentiment of profoundly intense American feel- ing; of passionate attachment to our country, its history, and its institutions; of admiration for the purer days of our national existence; of venera- tion for the heroism that precipitated our revolu- tion; and of emulation of the virtue, wisdom, and patriotism that framed our Constitution and first successfully applied its provisions.

Opposition to all attempts to weaken or subvert it. 2d. Uncompromising antagonism to every prin- - ciple of policy that endangers it. 'id. The advocacy of un equitable adjustment of ' all political differences which threaten" its integ- - ' rity or perpetuity. t 4th.

Avowing that in all doubtful or dispu- - :ed points it may only be legally ascertained ami ; expouudedbythejudici.il power of the United stites. An 1, as corollary to the above 1. A habit of revenaiti.il obedience to the lavs, j .vhether National, State, or Municipal, until t'eev tre either repealed or declared unconstitutional jv the. proper amhoritv. . A tender and regard for those acts of tati.saianship. which are to be contradistinguish-- ! oil from acts of ordinary legislation, by the fact of their being of the nature of eompa'-- and Agreements; and so, to be considered a fixed and ettled n itional policy. V. A radical revision and modification of the laws regulating immigration, and the settlement !' immigrants. Offering to the honest imml- - )!:'. t, who, from lo of liberty or hatred of op- - iression, seeks an asylum in the United States, a friendly reception and protection. Lint unquali- - iiedly condemning the transmission to our shores of felons and paupers. i VI. The essential modification of the Natu ralization Laws. I The repeal by the Legislatures of the respee- - tive States of all State iaws allowing foreigners j not naturalized to vote. The repeai, without retroactive operation, of all I acts of Congress making grants of land to unnat- - jralized foreigners, and allowing them to vote in the Territories. VII.

Implacable enmity against the prevalent de- - moralizing system of rewards for political sub- serviency, and of punishments for political indo- - ' pendence. Disgust for the wild lima after office, which characterizes the age. These on the one hand. On the other Imitation of the practice of the purer days of the Republic; aud admiration of the maxim that "oiliee should seek the man, and not man the office," and of the rule that the jusl mode of fitnes for odice is the capability, the laitlil'uliu'ss, and the honestv of the ir.cuinbtntor candidate. VII!. Resistance to the aggressive policy and corrupting tendencies of the Roman Catholic Church in our country, by the advancement to all political stations executive, legislative, judicial, ir diplomatic of those only who do not hold civil allegiance, directly or indirectly, to anv for- eign power, whether civil or ecclesiastical, anil who are Americans by birth, education and train- - ing thus fulfilling the "A.MEhir.-.N- only SHALL. COVERS' AmEIHC.R ' The protection of all citizens in the legal and j proper exercise of their civil and religious rights and privileges; the maintenance of the right of every man to the full, unrestrained, and peaceful enjoyment ot ins own religious opinions and , and a jealous resistance of all attempts by any sect, denomination, or church, to obtain an ascendency over any other in the State, by means of any special privileges or exemption, by any political combination of its members, or by a di- vision of their civil allegiance with any foreign power, potentate, or ecclesiastic. IX. Tlie reformation of the character of our National Legislature, by elevating to that digni- fied and responsible positon men of higher quali- fications, purer morals, and more unselfish patri- otism. X. The restriction of executive patronage, especially in the matter of appointments to office, so far as it may be permitted by the Constitution, ind consistent with the public "Oo..l. XI. The education of the youth of our country in schools provided by the State; which schools shall be common to all, without distinc- - '.ion of creed or party, and free from any influ- ence or direction of a denominational or partisan character. And, inasmuch as Christianity, i.y the eonstilu- - dons of nearly all the States, by the decisions of! the most eminent judicial authorities, and h- the consent oi the people of America, is considered in element of our political system, and as the Holy Bible is at once the source of Christianity, ind the depository and fountain of all civil and religious freedom, we oppose every attempt to xclude it from the schools thus established in the States. XII. The American pnty, having arisen up. in the ruins and in spite of the opposition of the Whig and Democratic parties, cannot bo held in my m inner responsible tor the obnoxious acts or violated pledges of either. And the svstcm isic igitation of tlie slavery question by those panics o iving elevated sectional hostility into a positive .dement of political power, and brought our in-- j ititiuious into peril, it h is therefore become the inperativc duty of the American party to inter- - )0..e for the purpose of giving peace to the coun- - ry and perpetuity to tlie Union. And as expo- ' .ience h is shown it impossible to reconcile oniii- - onsso extreme, as those which euar.iw t'.w ois- - out nits, and as there can be no dishonor in Mile nitiing t the laws, the Nation il Council his; Icemed it the I) est guarantee of common justice )f future peace, to abide by aud milutaln the ex- - Isfing laws upon the subject ot' slavery, as a final ind conclusive settlement of that subject, in ?;. i ind in substance: i And regarding it the highest duty to avow their opinions upon a subject so important, in distinct mid unequivocal terms, it is hereby declared as the sense of this National Council, that Congress possesses no power, under the Constitution, to legislate upon the subject of slavery in the States ' where it does or may exist, or to exclude anv State from admission into the Union because its constitution docs or does not recognize the insti- - tution of slavery as a part, of its social svstcm; and expressly pretermitting any expression of; opinion upon the power of Congress to establish or prohibit slavery in any Territory, it is the sense of the National Council that Congress ought not. to legislate upon the subject of slaverv within the territory of the United States, and that any interference by Congress with slavcrvas it exis's'm the District of Columbia, would lie a violation of the spirit and intention of the com- - pact by which the State of Maryland ceded the District to the United States, and "a breach of the National faith. XIII. The policy of the Government of the United States, in its relations with foreign gov- - crnments, is to exact justice from the strongest,! aud do justice to the weakest; restraining, by a'l the power of the government, all its citizens from interierence with the internal concerns of nations nit" whom we arc at peace, j XIV. The National Council declares that all too principles of the Order shall be henceforward everywhere openly avowed, am! tiut each mem-- i ber shall be at libcrcv to make known the exist-I'.ncc- the Order, ami the fact that he himself .s a member; and it recommends that there be no concealment of the phu-es- of meeting of subor-- ; dinate councils.

The Meeting of the Grand Council of theAmerican Ordfir of Kentucky Amer-ican Mass Meetings at nisht.The Grand Council of the American order of

Kentucky meets on Wednesday next at 10 o'-

clock A.'.M. in the Odd Fellows' Hall, fur the

transaction of business. On Tuesday night and

on Wednesday night there will be mass meet-

ings of the American party in the Hall of theHouse of Representatives, at which speeches may

be expected from distinguished friends of the

cause.As there will probably be many more strangers

in town than can find lodgings at the hotels, ourAmerican friends in Frankfort who can conven-iently entertain, at their private houses, some oftheir brethren from a distance, will please leavetheir na.nes or with Mr. G. W.

Lrw!8 at the Cimmmwcallh office, specifying the

number thev Van each receive.

Tac .a'.i3'.ic C'mrs'i and Civil Liberty.A good de il of trouble has been taken of late,

by certain Catholic Bishops, and other 'teachersft::) defenders of the dogmas of the Roman

church, to per.iuvde the community that Roman

Catholicism is not only compatible with civil lib-

erty, but th.it it is greatly promotive of the

growth an .1 Btability of free institutions. Someof them, indeed, contend and insist, with thegreatest pertinacity and apparent earnestness,that the Roman Catholic faith and church gov-

ernment are ir.diipensahh to the full developmentan 1 the permanency of republican freedom.And they most aiTectiunately and solemnly warnus, the people of the United States, who are en-

deavoring to be Protestants and freemen at the

same time, that unless w e give up our heresy and

return to the true faith and to the bosom of the"'only true and infallible church," we shall all

go to the devil, politically, in this world, and in-

dividually, in the next.We don't like to contradict people who assume

to teach by direct and infallible inspiration, butif we may be allowed to make an inquiry, thereis one little matter which we would like to haveexplained; and it is this: If the Roman Catho-

lic church is in truth so favorable to civil free-

dom, how does it happen that the people ofRome, and of the States of the church, have

so very little of that freedom? There is a coun-

try over which the Pope has had supremeand direct civil power, and acknowledged civil

jurisdiction, for centuries; how comes it thatthat country does not present an example ofa free government and a happy people, for

the emulation of the rest of the woiid?

Why has not the church conferred free institu-

tions upon a country in which she has had, for

ages, unrestricted scope for the exercise of herpleasure and her beneficence? How cornea it,that the government there has been so long a

grinding despotism ? How did it happen thatwhen the people of that country, a very few years

ago, rose in their own might, and cast off thecivil bondage that was crushing them, the Pope

called in the aid of French soldiery to replacethat bondage upon his people? And how comes

it that he now sits there a civil despot, maintain-ed upon his throne by French and Austrian bayo-

nets, while he sways his sceptre over an unwill-

ing people?Shall we be told that the people of the Pope's

civil dominions in Italy are not fit for freedom?If this be so, it only shifts and increases the dif-

ficulty. It does not dissipate it; still less docs itexplain it with credit to the church. If the peo-

ple of the Papal States are not fit for freedom,why are they not fit? There is no bar of inferior-ity of racei no inherent inborn incapacity. Theyare of the blood of the ancient Romans; and Europehas no better. Why are they not as fit for freedomnotv, under professed Christian rule, underthe immediate influence and control of one whoprofesses to be the Vice gerent of God uponearth is they were in the days of idolatry, andunder the instruction and influence of such heathenleaders as Junius Brutus? Who has instructedthe minds, developed the souls, and fashioned thewhole character of that people? The churchthe church, alone. The church has had control ofthem at every point for ages. She has ruled theirspirits as well as their bodies. She has fashionedand controlled their government, their devotion,their education, and their amusements. They havebeen in her hands as clay in the hands of the potter.She has made them what they are. If she in-

deed understands civil freedom and loves it, win-ha-

she not educated there a race of noble free-

men, as cx amplars for the rest of the world, andiniugurateJ among them a government, adaptedto the highest developemcnt of human greatne-- s

an 1 hum m hippiness? Never had any organ;z ttion a chanci to do si much good; never has

one accomplished so little.It is for the) church of Rome to armver, why

Italy has no civil freedom? Why she has none

of the substantial improvements and advantageswhich the progress of the age has brought to

other lands? Why her fields are still plowed

with a sharpened stick, and all her implements ofindu-tr- y such as might become a s

age? Why grass and mendicants grow sponta-

neously in the streets of her cities, while the mag-

nificent relics of art which heathen ages have lefther, are suffered to fill away by slow decay, or be

torn down to furnish materials for the ignobledwellings of her degraded sons? It is, in short,for the church to answer, why so many of the

people of her immediate civil dominions, areborn bastards, and live beggars, thieves, brigands,and assassins; and why, among the best of them,ambition seldom aspires beyond the copying of a

picture, the manufacture of a plaster doll, thesinging of a song, the teaching of a monkey to

dance, or the turning of a hand-organ- ?

Let the Roman church answer how it happensthat the noblest race of antiquity has, under herspecial care, dwindled down to a mere race ofanimated puppets; and when she has answered,we will talk again of her claims to be the grand

patron of civil freedom and political wclfar.

its aisles and lobbies and galleries assembledlast night to listen to an m;iin.s by Hon. Gar-nett Davis upon the great American question;and those who went, were well repaid

Mi. Davis spoke for move than three hours,and such a speech is seldom heard. It was a con-

tinuous succession of impregnable arguments,happy illustrations, and most eloquent and pow-

erful appeals. At the hue hour of the night atwhich we write, we have no time or room to at-

tempt any thing like a sketch of the speech; andindeed it was a speech too full of facts and toorich in eloquence to be susceptible of sketching.

We hope Mr. Davis will find time to prepare,his speech for the press, and give it, to his coun-

trymen to read at their . In any ease,there were some things, at least, in it which thepress canncjt allow to remain imprinted; and here-

after, when we have more time, we must recallthem as best we may.

We need not scarcely add. that Mr. D. wascheered throughout with the applause of his au-

ditors. Indeed is too feeble n wordto express the enthusiastic and vociferous delightwith which many of his noble sentiments andstirring appeals were received,

For llio Commonwealth.The .Vtl. atitagcs o! a State Agricultural

Sccietj .

Ma. Editor: Allow mc to enumerate, brief-ly, sonic of the advantages of a State organiz:- -

tion, such as is now contemplated in Kentucky:1st. It will embrace and foster all the interests

directly and remotely connected with agricul-ture throughout the whole State; which none butsuch an association cm have the means to ac-

complish.Cd. It will ultimately extend agricultural ex-

hibitions to feeble and remote sections of theSiate, where such exhibitions could not be sus-

tained by individual enterpr'ze alone.Cd. I: wiil thereby diffuse better stock, and

Stimulate ii;i;.roven.eiit throughout these remoteand feeble sections.

'!:li. It will g: e :!;.' assist in developing andbringing into public notice, the timber, coal, iron,salt, marble, ,'.'c, which abound in those portionsof the State,

5th. It will cause to be collected and published avast amount of statistical Information as to thestock, staples, and vest-tabl- and mineralresources of the State.

6th. It will bring into public notice, and there-by into profitable market, a large amount oftimber and mineral lands in ihe remote andmountainous portions of the State.

Tth. It will enhance the value of much realestate, thereby adding to individual wealth, andaugmenting the resources of revenue to thetreasury of the State.

8th. By stimulating the production of woreand better stock, and of more and better crops,staples, ic, it will greatly add to individualprosperity, and augment all the resources of theState.

9th. By reason of larger premiums, and great-er exhibitions, we will induce spectator, from adjacent States, who will thus become purchasersof our stock, crops, staples and products of allsorts.

10th. By means of larger premiums than coun-ty societies can oiler, a larger amount of agri-

cultural implements of all sorts, and of improv-ed construction, will be brought from a greaterdistance, and will thus be dirl'used through allportions of the State.

11th. By assistance from the State, premiumscan be offered which w ill be iarge enouch tocause exhibitors to keep their animals, articlesand products of all sorts on exhibition at the fairgrounds, during the entire exhibition; thus givingall persons a much better opportunity for sale orpurchase.

12th. By assistance from the State, steam andhorse power can be pro-- , idc-- at the State Fairs,for putting into motion all sorts of machinery,thereby much better displaying its practical ope-

ration.13th. By the assistance of the State, the ex-

change and distribution of valuable books, seeds,roots, and plants, wiil be greatly facilitated andpromoted.

By offering premiums for essays on allsubjects connected with practical agriculture, agreat stimulus will be given to intellectual cul-

ture, and much valuable information will be elic-

ited and published ; and the agricultural profes-sion will thereby be greatly profited, elevated, anddignified.

loth. By the endowment of a State Society,we will be placed on an equal footing with ouragricultural bretiiren of adjacent States, and thusour State pride will be gratified, and our

will be increased; and we will be reliev-ed from the imputation of beint: deficient in in-

telligence and enterprise.But enough, Air. Editor; time will not allow

thc enumeration of a tithe of the blessings of aStale Society, well organized and endowed; and Iwill close with only an allusion to the b!cs:ingswhich will result from the friendly association ofpcrsuiis of all poiitic.d parties and of all our sis-

ter States.Most respectfully,

Dirk de.i'iiitr power! around thy w.iy,The wrecks of huann gran leur lav;Oblivion's waters, cold an J black,Roll onward in tiie gloomy track,A:iddirl:!y hide from mor'ti! ken,The traces where thy course hath been.

The proudest things tint earth his kuoirn,The gorgeous splendor of a throne,

.The crest and kingly diademToy peerlej; arm Im scittered them,And power that shook the world, with dread.Lies crush'd beneath thy mighty tread!

Successive years around thee Cow,Yet leave no traces on thy brow;Revealing and destroying all:As firmly now thy footsteps fall,As when at first thy course was given,And thy dread limits mark'd by Heaven.

Mysterious power! still deep and strongThy tide of years shall roll along;Toe sun shall leave his home on high,The moon and stars of heaven shall die:And thou shall be the last to fall,The conqueror and the end of all.

Home and Women-- The following lines areextremely well done:

Home is a man's ark wlicn trouble spring,When Catherine, tempests shade The morrow;

And woman's love the'bird that bringsiiis peaca branch o'er a flood of sorrow.

(Platform and Pninciplcs of tlte AmericanParty.

I. The acknowledgment of that Almighty Be-

ing, who rules over the universe who presidesover the councils of nations who conducts theaffairs of men, and who, in every step by whichwe have advanced to the character of an inde-pendent nation, has distinguished us by some to-

ken of Providential agency.II. The cultivation and developement of a

sentiment of profoundly intense American feel-

ing; of passionate attachment to our country, itshistory, and its institutions; of admiration for thepurer days of our national existence; of venera-tion for the heroism that precipitated our revolu-tion; and of emulation of the virtue, wisdom, andpatriotism that framed our Constitution and firstsuccessfully applied its provisions.

III. The maintt-nane- of the union of theseUnited States as the paramount political good; or,to use toe language ot Washington, "the prima-ry object of patriotic desire." And hence

1st. Opposition to all attempts to weaken orsubvert it.

2d. Uncompromising antagonism to every prin- -

ciple of policy that endangers it.'id. The advocacy of un equitable adjustment of '

all political differences which threaten" its integ- -'

rity or perpetuity. t4th. The suppression of all tendencies to po-

litical division, founded on dis-

criminations, or on the bcliel thiit there is a re ddifference of interests and views" between tin'various sections of the Union.

nth. The full recognition of the rights of tin--

several States, as expressed r.nd reserved in i lieConstitution; and a careful avoidance, by the:General Government, of all interference" with''their rights by legislative or executive action.

IV. Obedience to the Constitution of theseUnited States, as the supremo law of the land,s icrcdly obligatory upon all its parts and mem- - ;

bcrs; and steadfast resistance to the spirit of in- -

novation upon its principles, however specious the';

pretexts. Avowing that in all doubtful or dispu- -

:ed points it may only be legally ascertained ami ;

expouudedbythejudici.il power of the Unitedstites.

An 1, as corollary to the above1. A habit of revenaiti.il obedience to the lavs, j

.vhether National, State, or Municipal, until t'eevtre either repealed or declared unconstitutionaljv the. proper amhoritv.

. A tender and regard for those acts oftati.saianship. which are to be contradistinguish-- !

oil from acts of ordinary legislation, by the factof their being of the nature of eompa'-- andAgreements; and so, to be considered a fixed andettled n itional policy.

V. A radical revision and modification of thelaws regulating immigration, and the settlement

!' immigrants. Offering to the honest imml- -

)!:'. t, who, from lo of liberty or hatred of op- -

iression, seeks an asylum in the United States, afriendly reception and protection. Lint unquali- -

iiedly condemning the transmission to our shoresof felons and paupers. i

VI. The essential modification of the Naturalization Laws. I

The repeal by the Legislatures of the respee- -

tive States of all State iaws allowing foreigners j

not naturalized to vote.The repeai, without retroactive operation, of all I

acts of Congress making grants of land to unnat- -

jralized foreigners, and allowing them to vote inthe Territories.

VII. Hostility to the corrupt means by w hichthe ie.aders of party have hitherto forced upon usour rulers and oir political creeds.

Implacable enmity against the prevalent de- -

moralizing system of rewards for political sub-serviency, and of punishments for political indo- -

'

pendence.Disgust for the wild lima after office, which

characterizes the age.These on the one hand. On the otherImitation of the practice of the purer days of

the Republic; aud admiration of the maxim that"oiliee should seek the man, and not man theoffice," and of the rule that the jusl mode of

fitnes for odice is the capability, thelaitlil'uliu'ss, and the honestv of the ir.cuinbtntorcandidate.

VII!. Resistance to the aggressive policy andcorrupting tendencies of the Roman CatholicChurch in our country, by the advancement to allpolitical stations executive, legislative, judicial,ir diplomatic of those only who do not holdcivil allegiance, directly or indirectly, to anv for-eign power, whether civil or ecclesiastical, anilwho are Americans by birth, education and train- -

ing thus fulfilling the "A.MEhir.-.N- onlySHALL. COVERS' AmEIHC.R '

The protection of all citizens in the legal and j

proper exercise of their civil and religious rightsand privileges; the maintenance of the right ofevery man to the full, unrestrained, and peacefulenjoyment ot ins own religious opinions and ,

and a jealous resistance of all attempts byany sect, denomination, or church, to obtain anascendency over any other in the State, by meansof any special privileges or exemption, by anypolitical combination of its members, or by a di-

vision of their civil allegiance with any foreignpower, potentate, or ecclesiastic.

IX. Tlie reformation of the character of ourNational Legislature, by elevating to that digni-fied and responsible positon men of higher quali-fications, purer morals, and more unselfish patri-otism.

X. The restriction of executive patronage,especially in the matter of appointments to office,so far as it may be permitted by the Constitution,ind consistent with the public "Oo..l.

XI. The education of the youth of ourcountry in schools provided by the State; whichschools shall be common to all, without distinc- -

'.ion of creed or party, and free from any influ-ence or direction of a denominational or partisancharacter.

And, inasmuch as Christianity, i.y the eonstilu- -

dons of nearly all the States, by the decisions of!the most eminent judicial authorities, and h- theconsent oi the people of America, is consideredin element of our political system, and as theHoly Bible is at once the source of Christianity,ind the depository and fountain of all civil andreligious freedom, we oppose every attempt to

xclude it from the schools thus established inthe States.

XII. The American pnty, having arisen up.in the ruins and in spite of the opposition of theWhig and Democratic parties, cannot bo held inmy m inner responsible tor the obnoxious acts orviolated pledges of either. And the svstcm isicigitation of tlie slavery question by those panicso iving elevated sectional hostility into a positive.dement of political power, and brought our in-- j

ititiuious into peril, it h is therefore become theinperativc duty of the American party to inter- -

)0..e for the purpose of giving peace to the coun- -

ry and perpetuity to tlie Union. And as expo- '

.ience h is shown it impossible to reconcile oniii- -

onsso extreme, as those which euar.iw t'.w ois- -

out nits, and as there can be no dishonor in Milenitiing t the laws, the Nation il Council his;Icemed it the I) est guarantee of common justice)f future peace, to abide by aud milutaln the ex- -

Isfing laws upon the subject ot' slavery, as a finalind conclusive settlement of that subject, in ?;. i

ind in substance: i

And regarding it the highest duty to avow theiropinions upon a subject so important, in distinctmid unequivocal terms, it is hereby declared asthe sense of this National Council, that Congresspossesses no power, under the Constitution, tolegislate upon the subject of slavery in the States '

where it does or may exist, or to exclude anvState from admission into the Union because itsconstitution docs or does not recognize the insti- -

tution of slavery as a part, of its social svstcm;and expressly pretermitting any expression of;opinion upon the power of Congress to establishor prohibit slavery in any Territory, it is thesense of the National Council that Congressought not. to legislate upon the subject of slavervwithin the territory of the United States, andthat any interference by Congress with slavcrvasit exis's'm the District of Columbia, would lie aviolation of the spirit and intention of the com- -

pact by which the State of Maryland ceded theDistrict to the United States, and "a breach of theNational faith.

XIII. The policy of the Government of theUnited States, in its relations with foreign gov- -

crnments, is to exact justice from the strongest,!aud do justice to the weakest; restraining, by a'l

the power of the government, all its citizens frominterierence with the internal concerns of nationsnit" whom we arc at peace,

jXIV. The National Council declares that all

too principles of the Order shall be henceforwardeverywhere openly avowed, am! tiut each mem-- iber shall be at libcrcv to make known the exist-I'.ncc-

the Order, ami the fact that he himself.s a member; and it recommends that there be noconcealment of the phu-es- of meeting of subor-- ;

dinate councils.' K- B. BARTLETT; of Kentucky,
