lis the Union party—tiro party which c

with which we have to contend, is of a char
qictor which lank not bo treated with all the
contetopt 'Me to desperation and deceit.
.One of 'the principal opponents which‘chal
lenges . our attention, and which is now
slumbering only to awaken with renewed
vlgor v is that which we call K now-Nathingis in.
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. God,
Iteligion and Man. 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.

a pCilet man in a stable-..-of course, grossly,
intoxicated. After being taken before Justice
Davis, she was sentenced to the penitentiary .
for thirty days as a vagrant.. '
"The history of this unfortunate creature
is a melancholy one. Some may censure,
but we are disposed to pity her. Less than
a year ago she was living in New York with
her husband, wild held% position ofhonor
and (met in one of the large mercantile
houses in that city. She was admired fin
„her beauty and inlelligtince, moved in an

her. Last fall her husband was sent upon a
collecting tour, and she accompanied him.
On their way hither the huthand fell in
with a company of 'confidence' or 'patent.

nefariouli business.
"In this city bin guilt became known.

fact becoming known to her family and
friendi, they at once' disowned her, having
her alone in the world, and surrounded by
the disgrace w hich her husband bad brought
upon her. ' , ln her desperation she - resorted

There is not a page in the history or

people to assert that he CI, er uttered a word,
