The "illn n iination" was a grand failure,

Irr The reader need not be .reminded
of the bitter personal assault made upon
the'Rditors oG this paper and the equally
.
bitter assault upon the American move
ment that appeared in the "Sentinel" of
September 14 and • provoked the contra.
versy which has ohm been occupying a
portion of our columns. Giving the "Sen.
tine!" th - o full benefit of a republication
of its assault, and disregardinr its ungen
erous personalities, we proceeded to cor
rect its misrepresentations nod expose the
factioui spirit that had induced it. Re
garding the rejoinder of the "Sentinel" !
as SO intimation of a willingness to drop
the matter we so announced it and intira
ted our readiness to do the same. The
reader need alto not be reminded of the
defiant challenge and hectoring banter
which followed on the part of the. "Senti
nel," in which, while renewing with re
doubled bitterness the assault upon Amer
icanism, we were assured that there wm
ho "no back-out" on tho part of tho arn
tindl," and in which our own willingness
to drop the controversy was characterized
as "an unmanly want of fair dealing with I
the public."
Finding that the "Sentinel" 'ins ber.t
on defeating the American ticket, in poi
soning the minds of its readers by misrep
reitenta,tions of the aims, purposes and
principles of the American iarty, and thus
rendering the Foreign party the "aid of
comfort" it did not dare openly to avow,
we proceeded to meet its allegations fully
land as we thought fairly and triumphant
ly—denying the selfish and mercenary
character of the American tuovetneut—do-
Hying the charges of "proscription," "out
hitting the Catholic faith," &c., and chal. l
t enging the reference to a single word or
I floe in the creed of the American party to
suaiain these allegations. The reader
need not be further reminded that when
Elms pressed to make good its charges, the
"Sentinel" deliberately tucked about and I
cooly told us that its controversy was not ,
with the American movement, but with'
the "proscriptive, exclusive and illi beral"'
policy of its avowed leaders in this county !I
Determined that this dodge should not i
avail them, in our last we took issue up-1
on that point, and dared the "Sentinel" to
point out the "proscriptive, exclusive and
illiberal policy" to which it pretended to
take exception, us characteristic of the A-1
roetican movement in this county, and not
characteristic of the movement, throughd
out the State. Thus stood the controver-1
sy with our lust issue. .
Now, how think you, gentle reader,
does -the "Sentinel" meet the issues thus
defiantly provoked by itself ? Here we
have it :
"Our neigbors of the "Star" appear to be
• terribly nitpd at the result of the election—
nod forgetting that it has been their own
coarse that has thrown the county into the
hands of the. Democracy, as every nun knows,
!they endeavor to throw the blame upon our
' poor head. This might do very well, if 'they
• could get any body to believe it, which we very
much question. * * *
Indeed, we see nothing in their articles that
calls for a reply for us, (Lod, as controversy is
not pleasant, we drop the matter."
If the dodge of last week was "cool,"
I we take this, to be a "leetle" cooler still !
"Nothing that calls for a reply." after all
its persistent misrepresentations and per
, vet sions of Americanistn—after all its
twaddle about "consktency" and "manly
honor"—its defiant challenges and vaunt
iug boasts of "no back-out !" May.be
there is a reason for that. Tim election
is now past—the purposes of the "Senti
nel" coterie have been accomplished—ale
American ticket is defeated—the "new
movement" has met the desired "torn
rebuke"—the "quiet, thrifty, honorable
and pure native Catholics" have been AM
red of the "Sentinel's" orthodoxy—and
why the necessity for further controver
sy ? True, gross injustice has been done'
to the American organization in this
county and to the true men who have been
laboring for the triumph of its principles
—those principles have over and over a
gain been deliberately misrepresented and
falsified, and their advocates denounced
as "mercenary politicians" and "proscrip
tive zealots,' % —but what of that ? The
"Sentinel" has of late acquired new
views of what is "consistent with manly
fair dealing with the public," and we
leave him to enjoy the refreshing teach-1
ings of his new code of ethics.
But we do assure our neighbor that al
though not prepared to endorse the treach
erous policy which has for the time
"thrown the county into the hands of"
Nebraska Locofocoism—we are in no wise
I "miffed" at the result. We regret that
resultl—deeply regret it—but we have the
conscious conviction that we did not con
tribute to it either by our counsels or by
our voles. While from all quarters of the
county we have the intelligence that the
factious policy of the "Sentinel" aided to
defeat the American ticket and secure the
triumph of Nebraska Locofocoism, and re
gard the kind congratulations extended by
the Foxeign party to our neighbor and his
"peculiar friends, as. well deserved—we
shall not seek further to press that 'movie
tion upon , him ' . As the controversy is no
longer ‘.pleagant" to him, "we drip the
matter," in the hope7that the next time
he undertakes to assail the American move
ment.he will be more careful into whose
hands he commits the control of his edito.

in a few pertinent remarks, in vindication of
the principles avowed by the American party,
referring to the misreprescri e ':o67of those
principles by the opponents of Americanism,
and maintaining that the result of the recent
election, in exhibiting, the weakness of the op
position even in the hour of triumph, so far
from having n tendency to discourage our A
merit= friends, should be regarded as un evi
dence of the strength of our cause and as the'
precussur of triumph in the future. In coneltt•

The Committee having retired, W. L. Cute.
BELL, Esq., responded to a call of the meeting,
in an eloquent and iiircible address in support
of the purity and ennobling character of the
principles of the American party, as. main
tained in the reeent eativas 4, and which,
however misrepresented and Misconceived,
must sooner or later command the confidence
of the honest masses of all parties and be tri
umphantly sustained. He also bore testimony
to the gallant bearing of our friends in the late
contest, who stood up manfully in defence of
Raise principles, and appealed to the American
party of the . county to stand by their colors,
maintain-Pc that the result of the election pro
ved conclusively that the Opposition, with all
the strength it derived front the Catholic and
Foreign rots, had failed to bring to the support
of the Foreign policy -of its leaders the honest
nmsses of the Old Democratic party. The op
position had shown their weakness, and proved
eonelasively thatliereafter all that was neces
sary for the American party to carry the co o n-,
ty by a handsome majority, was union, harmo
ny, and a full vote.
Mr. CAMPBELL having concluded, Mr. Butm-
LEK, from the Committee on Resolutions, sub
mitted the (aiming, which, being read, were
nuanintotpdy adopted :
W Nereus, we have j tint em , rged fri on a in dit •
ieal contest, in which the Anierienn party or
the State of Pennsylvania have tact with a tem
porary defat, the result of a vombiffittion of
predjudieial influences, not the lea,t of whieh
we believe to have been the studied ;km
sktent misrepresentations of our prinriples,
aims and objects, by the anti-A merit•na party
and Irlicreas, we belie e those principles, aims
and objects to be bused is sound policy, and au
ardent devotion to the interests of the country,
and, as such, must commend themselves to the
sober judgment and honest convictions of a
large majority of the American people—we
deem it due as well to the cause we have es
poused, as to oar fellow-citizens, to re -assert, as
we now do in this the hour of apparent defeat,
our continued confidence in the truthfulness
and correctness of the principlesavowed by
the Anierican party in Pennsylvania, as em
bodying a policy imperiously demanded by n
regard for the long cherished Institutions of
our Republic, while assuring to every citizen,
whether native or adopted, Protestant or C•uth
olic, all the political rights and privileges guar
anteed to him by tho Constitution : Lie it there
fore,
Regoired,—That we do not recognize, in the
result of the election on Tuesday last; kuch a
condemnation of American principles by the
citizens of Adams county or the State of Penn
sylvania, as to cause us to falter in our devo
tion to those principles, or in our efforts to have
them incorporated in governmental policy—
believing as we do that absorbing issues, aside
from those avowed by the American party,
controlled and determined that result.
&Wird, That, relying upon the patriotism
and.intelligerme of the limiest masses of the
old political organizations to approve our ef
forts, when our aims and purposes 8111111 have
been relieved from the misconception arising
from the wilful misrepresentations of titetious
politicians and artful demagogues, we affirm
our continued devotion to the principles of A
tnericanism as officially set forth by our friends
in State Convention at Reading in July lest:
L The cultivation and 'development ' of a sen
timent of profoundly intense American feeling
—of passionate attachment to-our country, its
history and its instifutions—of an admiration
for the purer days Of our national existence
of veneration for..the 'heroism that precipi
tated our Revolution—and of emulation of the
virtue, :wisdom, and patriotism that framed
our Constitution and first successfully applied
its provisions.
' IL The maintenance of the Union Of, these
United States as' the paramount political g ood

2nd. Uncompromising antagonism to every
principle of policy that endangers it.

111. A radical revision and modification of

IV. The esaentiat modification o %tn.

The repeal by the Legislatures of the mire

V. Resistance to, the aggressive policy and ,
^corrupt tendeneies' of the Raman Catholic
Church in our country by the advancement to
all political stations'.;--executive, legislative, ju

hold allegiance, directly or indirectly, to any
foreign power, whether civi or ..!clesinstieul, and
who are' Americans by biroi, education and
training—thus ; fulfilling the maxim, meri •
cans only shall govern A Meritni."
The protection of njl citizens in the legal mid
proper exercise of their, civil end religious
rights and privileges—the milintenance of the
right of every man to the MI, unrestrained mid
peaceful einoymnt, of his own religious
opinions and worship ; 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 ofany special pmilqoN
or exemption, by any political combination of
its members, or by a division of their civil itl
legiance with any foreign power, potentate or
ecclesiastic.
VI. The education of the youth ibf onr coun
try in schools provided by the .State—which
schools shall be common to nll, wit hout distinc
tion of oved oeparty, and free, from any influ
ence of denominational or partizan character.
And, inasmuch as Christirnity, by the Con
•st itution of nearly all the States—by the decis
ions of the most eminent judicial authorities
and by the Consent of the people „of America,
is considered an element of our political system,
and as the Holy Bible is at once, the deposito
ry and fountaitt ; of all civil and religious free,
dom . , we opposit every - attempt to exclude it
from the schools thus established in the States.
Res°/red, That, in thus asserting the princi
ples of the American party, its aims and ob
jects, we expressly and firmly disavow any pur
pose to interfere with any man's enjoyment of
his religions faith, he it what it may, and repel
with indignant scorn the senseless ehnrges of
religious proscription by stliich reckless politi
cians have sought to prejudice our came.
Rem/red, That, while we repose no new
ennetments to deprive nay citizen, native or a
dopted, of the right to'vote or hold nilice, with
our convictions of the growing dangers of For•
eign influence in our elections, and iu the 1(10:4-
