UENTLSiiEN : I received your note of vaster day,. by which I am invited to address a Mass Meeting of oitkena, to be held here on the 19th lust., for the purpose of ratifying the platform ot prinoipl. recently adopted at Philadelphia by the American party. I been so long withdrawn from the tur moil ef public life, aud so liitle-accustomed, of late, to swallow the dust (not always Olympic.) of the political arena, that I must decline making apublio address on the occasion jou mention. Besides,,! should doubt very much my physical ability to address a large crowd in the open air, at this very hot season of the year, for a time long enough to express my views satisfactorily to them' or to myself. Among the great objects of this party, are (as I understand) to redeem and exalt the National character, to secure to the native American the predominance and control in the govern ment of bis country, to preserve the Constitu tion inviolate, to secure the integrity and per petuity of the Union, and to establish upon a firm basis the constitutional rights of the South, without impairing those of any other section of the Union. These are certainly objects of ar dent desire to every American patriot and states man. The great questions of foreign influence and Southern domestic institutions are those which now agitate and injuriously disturb our coun try, and they should be met and examined in a spirit of enlightened patriotism, with a due re gard to the Constitution of the United States, and our own rights and safety. With respect to the foreign influence which has prevailed for several years, and is now pre vailing, and has been attended with such per nicious results to our national character and peace, I am, and have long been, sincerely op posed to it, in all its various phases and ramifi cations ; whether it be manifested in the em ployment of foreigners in high diplomatic sta tions, or in the' persecution of poor clerks, and in the summary ejection of postmasters, whose official income may not much exceed forty shil lings per annum. I think this is a game utterly unworthy of a successor of the illustrious Washington, and must needs contract to the smallest dimensions the mind employed in such ignoble pursuits. The rights of citizenship have always been re garded by all enlightened States as of great value and importance.

Though not surprised, we are nevertheless F u I e alluded, incidentally, in our issue ot the aeeply gratified, to learn from the Herald, that rfn "r tru-her-ei Americans ought to rauy ior the maintenance nt tka BamB regard to old party prejudices or associations. Kesoived.lh&t we do hereby appeal to all those in fAvor of the great American principles, to unite in their support at the coming elec tion ; to concentrate their energies, and to cooperate-harmoniously and efficiently in the sup port of those men who represent their feelings, ana who will carry out practically their Amer ican principles. , Resolved, That the thanks of this meeting are aue and are hereby tendered to the Delegates from this State in the Philadelphia convention, tor their seal and assiduity in the support of American nationality, American Protestanism, American Union and the Constitutional rights of the South. These resolutions were adopted with enthu. siastic acclamation. Mr. Miller next proceeded to address the multitude, and for three hours enchained their most earnest and undivided attention. His ef fort was worthy of him, and that is high praise enough. A more thorough acquaintance with facts, a more logical series of deductions, a more elevated tone of sentiment or more frequent out bursts of genuine eloquence have distinguished no speech of the times. It is, of course, impos sible for us to attempt even the most meagre abstract of the remarks of Mr. Miller, or. in deed, of any other eentlemen who addressed 47 " the meeting. We only wish that it could have been heard in every nook and corner of the State. After Mr. Miller had concluded, an ample and bountiful dinner (to which all seemed dis posed to do ample justioe.) was served up. Un returning to the stand, loud calls from the crowd brought W. N. Allen, Esq., to the stand. Mr. A., it will be remembered, is the gentleman who recently addressed ine excelleut and patriotic letter (which we had the pleasure of publishing,) to the Postmaster General, de clining to hold office any longer under 80 cor rupt an Administration. His remarks, though brief, were to the point, happily conceived, happily expressed, and received by the audience with very decided demonstrations of approval. Mr. A.'s presence, he mav rest assured, con- tributed greatly to the gratification of those who are enlisted with him in the same cause. Mr. Brown, a Scotchman by birth, responded, in some sensible and humorous remarks, to an invitation to address the meeting. He stated that he thought the Americam movement right that the children of the soil were the only proper persons to rule the land of their nativity, and that he came to this country with no thought of participating in its government, but for the purpose of being protected by its just -and equal laws 1 .

We have neither time nor space, to-day, to give more than a very cursory account of the great American Mass Meeting which assembled in this city; on yesterday, (Thursday.) Consid ering the intense heat of the weather and the busy season of the year, the attendance waa not only most gratifyingly large, but it waa remar kable. There could not have been less than twelve or fifteen hundred persona present, representing every portion of the District, and animated by a spirit of enthusiasm,, ef energy, and of hope, which, if they do not prove the precursors of immediate success, are still strongly indicative of the deep and powerful hold which the great political Reformation of the day has taken upon the American mind, and are guarantees of its ultimate triumph. The Committee appointed to nominate officers for the occasion recommended, through Maj. W. F.Coxlhts, the following, which were onaimioue ly approved, vit : President, DR. WESLEY HEARTSFIELD, of Wake. Vice Presidents, JNO. E. THOMAS, of Franklin, D. A. PASCIIALL, of Granville. THOMAS J. HOLT, of Warren, A. D. NORTH AM, of Johnston, WALTER A. THOMPSON, of Orange, J. ROBERT JEFFREYS, of Wake, JOHN HAYES, of Wake. Secretaries, J. A. BULLOCK, of Granville, J. Y. StlNSON, of Franklin, WILLIAM F. ASKEW, of Wake. The reader who will look over this list of of ficers will be somewhat puzzled to make out how an organization, which embraces within it so maay who have been heretofore strong and decided partisan of the 8?-called Democratic school, can be "a Whig concern in disguise VI The officers thus designated having assumed v their places upon the platform, several letters from gentlemen wbo had been invited to attend tbe meeting, but wbo were prevented from doing so, were read. We select from the num ber the following, from i the Hon. Geo. E. Badger and the Hon. Jno. II. Brtan. The letter of the former gives tbe lie to the rumor that has been been so industriously circula ted that he has expressed himself adverse- ly to the American party. It is explicit, de cided, moat satisfactory. The letter of Mr. Brt ax, too, goes tbe full length of the doctrines ol the organization, and embodies patriotic senti ments, eloquently expressed. Raleigh, July 18th, 1855. Gentlemen: I feel obliged and bonoredy yeur invitation to attend and address a meet ing, to be held to morrow, of the friends of the American party, to ratify tbe platform of prin ciples recently adopted by the National council r England it is treasured as a rich inheritance, of which its possessor in justly proud; and from tbe remotest quarter of the Globe, whether from Libyan sands or Siberian snows, the Briton turns bis expiring gaze "to the last anchored Isle," and dies the more content, if bis head is pillowed on bis country s flag. Why should not American citizenship be re garded with equal or greater devotion and af fection ? .Because it has, of late years, been huckstered and hawked about, and made an ar ticle of trade in party politics, until it has be come so cheap, that every renegado and outcast of a European jail, or poor house, has bad it thrust upon him to qualify him to d some vile party work. It i said that when Napoleon Bonaparte was "about embarking for Egypt, he met some young Americans, and congratulated tnem upon boDg citizens of the Republic, and countrymen of Washington; and no doubt their hearts leaped with joy and swelled with honest pride at such a salutation. ' Now who so poor as to reverence thia once honored name? The Goths have seized the capitol. Native citizens are thrust out of office, aad the newly manufactured gentry are substituted ; and before the crowned heads of Europe, we impliedly admit our inability to fill tbe posts of honor and of trust with native citizens, by : appointing foreigner who misre present our country, because they do not under stand and cannot appreciate the spirit ef our institutions. Our flourishing cities are filled and controlled by immense hordes of this kind of population, and Infidelity and sgrarianism boldly show theey hideous visages.: I complain of no man on account of his religion ; that is a matter be tween his God and bis conscience but we have a right to insist that their privilege's be exersis ed with due regard to the rights of others, and in subordination to tbe law of tbe land.

To sum. up in a single sen tence : The spoils are the God it worships, office, office that will pay, is the Paradise of its dreams ! ' Abolition is, unquestionably, the great an tagonist of Americanism. It is a more formi dable adversary than either the Foreign or Roman Catholic elements. The deep feelings of Nationality and Protestantism are strong enough,; in every portion of onr country, to Contend with tha ltto kut palitinians have for selfish ends fluttered, cajoled, and tra ded with, Abolition, until it has become an ele ment of immense strength, most potent for mischief. Opposition to the rights and interests of the South abolitionized both the old parties, but the American party; in national council at Phila delphia, rejected tbe proffered embrace. It as serted its devotion to the Constitution ; drove from its deliberationslbose who wished to poi son the pure fountains of its patriotism ; and now stands before the country a nation al, conservative, constitutional, union party. When, before, did either the Democratic or Whig party drive from its midst the abolition ists that had crept into either ? When was such a conservative, Southern platform ever promul gated by -a national party in this country be fore ? When was there ever a national conven- 1 tion of any party in thia country, since the rise Of course, it is t sustain the American party the party that stands pledged before the nation to sustain his rights and the rights of his seo- STRAWS, &c. One of the surest evidences of the failing strength aad sickly despondency of the Foreign party in our midst may be observed in the dif ficulty that the junto experience in their efforts to get together a sufficient number of persons to effect an organization at their meetings. A "beggarly account of empty boxes" constitutes, generally, tbe audience of those self-sacrificing gentlemen wbo consent to address vacancy and beat the air ao furiously, these warm summer evenings.

The author of that tissue of falsehood, if he be not wholly lost to all sense of shame, should blush at the unenviable attitude in wbich he finds himself placed. We are authorized to state that the Hon. D. M. Barrinqer has written a letter (wbich will be forthcoming in a day or two,) re asserting and confirming his statement relative to the conversation which took place between himself and the Pope's Nuncio in Madrid, and the truth of which the Washington " Union," with no knowledge of the facts, has thought proper to deny. But to return What is the Raleigh "Stan dard" doing? Giving aid and comfort to our most bitter enemies tbe fanatics of the North. It is united with them in reviling and Blander- ng the American party. It triumphed over the election tf Seward it jubilated over the election of Wilson those arch-enemies of South ern institutions, who endeavored by chicanery and cunning to abolitionize the American order, but who have failed most ignobly, and with their spies and satellites have been ignominious ly driven from its pale. They have now pro claimed open and unrelenting warfare against it, and the "Standard" is with them cheek by jowl. Does that press not know that the safety and streogth of the South consist in union, in oonfidenoa one in another, that in any crisis in volving our rights, there will be no divisions or discords among ua 1 And yet, is not the "Stan dard" daily weakening us, by saying to the ab olitionists' of the North, that half of tbe people of North Carolina are with them in their wick ed designs? Is it not daily producing dis traction among us here at home, by charg ing us with being divided in regard to our rights ? Does the "Standard" wish to encourage abolitionists, by telling them, that half the peo ple of this State are allied with them ? Does it wish to alarm the wives and the daughters and the children of the State, by its intimations that the horrid and awful scenes of St. Domingo will find aiders and abettors here in our very midst 1 We have warned the "Standard" be fore that to say nothing of its utter disregard of the courtesies of political warfare its course, in charging a large portion of the best and most conservative men of tbe State, with being the allies of abolitionists, is well calculated to pro duce discontent and to excite insubordination among onr slave population. The leading abo- itionists of the North, many of them, avow this to be their object ; and of course, if Southern men are leagued and allied with them, they must be engaged in promoting the same ends. We say again to the "Standard," beware how you thus; in the fury of your party rage, trifle with such delicate questions, how you thus tamper with the laws ! We again commend to it a. consideration of the penalties for such misconduct named in the Revised Statutes, ch. 34, sec. 17, vol. 1, page 194, and advise it to take warning of its fears ! abused Northern Know Nothings have unan imously ratified and endorsed the pro-slavery Philadelphia platform,' and, in that act, have given indisputable evidence of their devo tion to the Constitution and their soundness upon all the prominent and vital issues affect ing tbe rights of the Sooth. They have thus gone, says the Richmond Whig, farther than even Southern Democrats themselves, in any national convention of their party. They have declared their adhesion, frankly and bold ly, to the strongest States rights platform ever published to the country. They avow in une quivocal terms that the Fugitive Slave law shall be executed in good faith that the Kansas Ne braska act shall remain undisturbed that the principle of non-intervention in the Territories is the true one that Congress shall not touch slavery in the District of Colombia and that Congress has no power to reject a State apply ion for admission into the Union, whether it recognizes slavery as a part of its social system or not. These are the great and saving princi ples which the American party of the Empire State promptly and cordially endorse, and which they solemnly pledge themselves to sustain and oarry out to their legitimate results.
