It is a native weed, of noxious odor-and i has spread its baneful influences all over the Union. When the Ainctleau—sumement ' was drat started, it originated in fire and fury, was baptised in Wood, and its alli ance with all the other isms of the day, was - .co:ulcerated by the smouldcrint ruins of 1 altars erectect to the Irving God. The-priiii elides of Know-Nothingism, as set forth in their book of faith, is a hostility to all for eignms ; —and a deadly hatred to religion. i 'past hatred is shown by its attacks on ' Catholicism in one section—on Presbyterian-1 i ;Min anotlisTricif lIM slaliotlist in one place, and so on through the catalogue of sects, they wage a crusade against.

No man leaves his native land w itlwut tifilaigion, without a sigh of sorrow, without moistening the gravi of a mother, s fa' her, a wife, on, daughter, or friend, wit!? a tear of regret—arid I do hold it as :.acrd, that the man who forgets his ~alive land, eihO discharges from his memo ry all th sight; of the scenes of his childhood —all feidingli.for borne that was and tho friends that ore, makes tho more adopted citrism that could k )o,,ubly be manufactured, 'the wan who invest the pla. - o of Ins birth, % ill 'love with, double ardor the hotim of kis adoption. . The very fact, Li set forth by the ablest ricers id political econoniy, that a rut ex gle rri ory requ ires increasing po puts, tion„proves the fallacy of Know- Nothingism, because one of their cardinal principles is tow kat emigration by imposing burdensome and insultini4 restrictions upon the emigrants. As soon as we , attempt, by any I%i/dative risttiction, to traintnel the legitimate actions of those who sock our shores, it is natural t.i e spec t. that utnigrat ion will cease, and that the bon niarieii of the Republiewal be limited far as civilization extends, Itnt it we inltte the hardy' pegvailLry of Europe to our theinthi fair particifiatili in the goi eminent, the greatness of tho na tlou will daily Incre.ise, until it become,, what its founders d info he, the din: pencrr of . juraticeM the world.
