THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
The ticket agreed upon by the Democratic
County Convention-, is, beyond question, one of
the best ever presented to the people of Cum
berland county. From top to bottom it is un
exceptionable—composed, ns it. is. of men of
sterling moral and political integrity, whose
characters, in all respects, will bear the most
searching scrutiny. It is a ticket of which the
Democracy of this county may well feel proud,
and will command the respect of men of all
parties. It is worthy of and entitled to the
best charts of the Democratic party, and will
most certainly be elected triumphantly, if our
friends arc active and zealous behalf of their
candidates.
The County Convention, we were pleased to
see, Was composed of the best and ablest men
of the different townships —an evidence that the
Democracy were awake to the importance of
having a good ticket selected. And now that
the Convention performed their duty so well,
we urge our friends in the different words, bor
oughs and townships to organize early and de
termine on victory. Let them make a bold
nnd vigorous effort for the whole ticket, and its
success will be certain on the second Tuesday
of October. We shall have more to say on this
subject on future occasions.
(Iv* We learn that a vote for County officers
took place in all the Know-Nothing Lodges of
this county on Saturday night last. On Tues
day the aggregate vote was counted up in the
room of the Carlisle lodge, when it appeared
that Rohert Moore, Jr., (formerly County
Treasurer,) had a majority of all the votes cast
for Assemblyman. James Orr. of Hampden
township, had a majority for County Commis
sioner ; nnd James Posti.kw ut, of Carlisle, a
majority for Coroner. These men were de
clared nominated. No other nominations were
effected. The principal competitors for the
Sheriffalty, were Wm. Rkii.v (late Clerk to the
County Commissioners) and Col. Robert M’-
Gautxy, both of Carlisle. M’Cartny beats
Rcily 45 voles, —but yet has not a majority of
the whole, and therefore fails of a nomination.
John G. Williams of this place, received the
highest vote for Treasurer, but not enough to
nominate him. The lodges arc to meet soon
again to make another effort at completing the
ticket.
The whole number of votes cast in the coun
ty, we learn, was between 700 ami 800—an
evidence that Know-Nothingisui ia oi> the wane
in old Mother Cumberland.
Lbttkr from Wm. B. Ukkiv. —OVr the first
page of to-day's paper will bo found a wither
ing denunciation of Know-Nothingism from the
pcn'bfWM. B. Reed, Esq., the District Alter
t ncy of Philadelphia, which, for force of argu
ment and bitter*sarcasm, is equal to anytliing
we have ever read. Mr. Reed, as will be seen
letter, is an old-lino-Whig, and was h
member of the Whig State Central Committee,
which position he resigns because of the base
treachery of n majority of his colleagues of the
Committee But, we need not go into particu
lars. Suffice it to say, Mr. Rbep has always
been regarded one of the ablest men in our
Stale, a most zealous and consistent Whig, and
honorable man. Of course a man of flis char
acter would revolt at the very idea of transfer
ring the Whig party to the keeping of Know-
Nothing lodges. No one should fail to read
Mr. R’s letter. To honest Whigs we would
commend it particularly. Read it—read it !
Ladies on lloilskhack.—We don't know
whether it is the intention of our Countv Ag
ricultural Society to oiler a premium for the
best lady equestrian who may appear at the
Fair this fall. Wc hope so, however, for if
there i.s on,qjcib a more fascinating and be-
a lovely woman in the
(flfcWlng-rooDkir boudoir, it is that same lovc
l>llßphn—osJln fad. any other lovely wo-
horseback ; taking it for granted, of
course, that she knows how to ride, and sits
the noblo animal, proud of his glorious burden,
like a Muse taking an airy stroll through ether
upon the back of Pegasus, and not shivering
and shrinking at every stop, like a wooden doll,
fearful of falling to pieces. Female equestrian
ism is one of the most exquisite luxuries of a
high cultivation : an exercise in which every
source of healthful and pleasurable emotion is
brought into play, pot only for tl*c moment, '
but in nil the movements and occupations nl !
the l*udy, ami which presents the bewildering i
outline and undulating beauty of the female'
loim in all its ravishing and intoxicating per
fection.

KNOW-NOTHING APPEALS TO HENRY CLAY
WHIGS.
The sworn minions of Know-Nothingism arc
evidently alarmed at the independent stand'ta
ken by a largo portion of the old line Whigs—,
or, Henry Clay Whigs, ns'they generally call
themselves. The old personal and political
friends of the deceased, statesman—those men
who honored him because of his great talents,
and his strong advocacy of religious toleration
and personal equality—cannot give countenance
to intolerant, bigoted and selfish Know-Noth
ingism. They oppose this faction from prin
ciple—they oppose it because of the wickedness
of its teachings and the corruption of its lend
ers: because of its blasphemous and unconsti
tutional oaths; because they know that if
Henry Clay still lived, lie would crush and
wither the faction by a glance from bis eagle
eye ; because of the baseness of its origin, nnd
the depravity it Inculcates: because it tenches
disobedience to the Constitution and the laws,
nnd requires its members to falsify and preva
ricate. These arc a [few of the reasons, and
only a few, that induce honest Henry Clay
Whigs to plqco the seal of condemnation upon
Know-Notliingism.
As wo said in the commencement of this ar
ticle, the sworn slaves of Kiiow-Nothingism—
those men who profit by the organi
zation —arc alarm'cd, and aro doing all in their
power to prevent these friends of the deceased
Kentuckian from coalescing with the Democra
cy, with the view to put down and strangle the
monster. The Know-Nothing papers appeal to
these men—these Henry Clay Whigs—and
remind them that the Democrats abused and
denounced Mr. Clay when he was a pandidate
for the Presidency. Grant, for the sake of ar
gument, that this charge is true, what right
have the Know-Nothings to make capital from
the fact ? In the campaign of 1844, no man in
Pennsylvania, perhaps, was more active against
Mr. Clay than Gen. Cameron of this State.—
He was, at Hint lime, the owner of .some six or
eight Democratic papers, and all of them oppo
sed Mr. Clay with unusual zeal. And yet
tins Gen. Cameron, the principal opposcr of
Mr. Clay in 1n44. was the nominee of the
Know-Nothings of the last legislature for U.
S. Senator, and would have been elected but for
the obstinacy of a few of the “brethren,” who
refused to vote for him. Gen. Cameron’s de
nunciation of Mr. Clay in 1844, did not prevent
prominent Whig Know-Nothings from support
ing him for a high and honorable position; nnd
yet these same men turn round and attempt to
prejudice old-line-Whigs against voting for Do-,
mocrats, because they (the Democrats) abused
Henry Clay in 1844. What consistency I
Whig Know-Nothings themselves endorse and
elect to office Mr. Clay’s bitterest and most
vindictive enemies. It don’t become them,
therefore, to attempt to frighten old-line-Whigs
by appeals of this kind, for the friends of Hen
ry Clay can turn round and ask these Whig
j Know-Nothings why they support the malign
! era of Mr. Clay for office ?
What man is this county denounced and vil
ified Ukn'ry Ci.av more heartily and with a
greater relish than our present Know-Nothing
Congressman ? And yet he was the nominee,
not only ol the Know-Nothing* but also of the
Whigs of the district, and received every Whig-
Know-Nothing vote! And in the face of these
facts Know-Nothing Whigs affect great sur
prise because the friends of the great Kentuck
ian arc determined 5 vote and act as they please
hcrcaftcrj and they attempt to frighten them
from thcirpurpo.se by reminding them that they
I arc joining Mr. Clat’b former enemies if they
oppose Know-Nothi r'srn ! Fudge.. IlENnr
Ci.w’s son understands these croakers, and is
bold to denounce thcm f and reject their pre
tended friendship for thv memory of his illustri
ous father.
Wc venture to say that the Know-Nothings
of this county will have on their ticket several
men who were the bitter opponents of Mr. Clay
m 1K44 : nay, not only his opponents, but his
revilers. But yet, notwithstanding thnr en
dorsement of these revilers of Mr. Clay, they
I whisper in the cars of the old-Hnc*Wbigs, and
say to them, "now don't vote Aw any of the
Democratic candidates, for If you do you will
be supporting those who abused Mr. Cur in
1844.” Was there over so weak an argument
—ever so palpable attempt at deception? The
old-line-Whiga—the real friends of their former
chief—see through It, and will spurn and dis
regard the advice, and, wc doubt not. will join
bands with James B. Clay to crush forever,
and in thcquickesl possible maimer, the demon
o Kiiuw-Notningisra.
tales! Foreign News.
The steamship arrived at New York
on the 15th Inst-, with news from Europe two
days aur. A report was gaining ground that
Den. Mm son, .commander of (he English army
at .Sebastopol, was about to resign ou account
of ill health, and be succeeded by Lord Hard
ingc, but another report says that Pelissier has
arranged the forces for an assault upon the
Russian works: (’anrobert to command the
right column, Simpson the left, and Pelissier
the reserve. Gen. Count Zamoyski, a distin
guished Pole, lias arrived in-London by special
invitation of the British government, to con
sult, it is supposed, on the Polish question.—
The French works at Sebastopol arc so close
to the abaltis of the MalakoO that a man may
throw a stone into it. There seems to be a
doubt about tho death of Gen. Tudlcben, the
Russian engineer, and some accounts slate that
he is recovering froln his wounds. An earth
quake occurred at Lyons on the afternoon of
July 2<ilh, which was also felt at Valence, on
the Rhino* At Lyons, some houses were dam
aged, but no lives lost.
The America has arrived at Halifax froml.iv
crpool, bringing news from Europe four days
later than the Lebanon’s advices. She brings
a report that tho bombardment of Sebastopol
had been recommenced, and that preparations
were making for a general assault. Sohmaylo,
the Circassian chief, is not dead yet, but has
again descended from the mountains and
threatened the Russians. Oilers for the French
loan amounted to 3,000,000,000 franca. Spain
is said to have, consented to send o contingent
force to the Crimea, but the report is doubtful.
I u China the recent reverses of the insurgents
were hut temporary checks.

THE KNAVE & THE FOOL OP THE "AMERICAN.”
It is quite common, now-a-days, to see the
knave nnd the fool associated in a kind of part
nership , for tho.purpose of enabling them the
better to deceive and swindle their fellow-men.
They arc always men of despe nto character,
and arc generally steeped to tie very,eyes in
iniquity. Of course they are un icrupulous and
shameless, nnd never feel “ at home” except
when dealing in duplicity nnd fraud. We find
men of this character together very often in the
business of counterfeiting—the knave-makes,
and furnishes the counterfeit coin, the fool puts
it in circulation. Again, their business is bur-
glary, when the knave carves out the fnlso-kcysi
nnd the fool enters dwellings and robs them of
their contents. In fine, the knave makes the
balls, the fool fires them. No knave can be
successful without the aid of his fool. Since the
advent of Know-Nothingism, we frequently
find the knave and the fool associated, in print?
nnd publishing the ephemeral newspapers of
that faction—a faction that came up liko the
fungus in the night, and will go down as quick
ly. Know-Nothingism appears to hav6 opened
up a new field for these vagabonds to practice
in. and a number of them have suspended.tho
business of house-breaking, counterfeiting nnd
forgery, to gamble in politics. In this busi?
ness we always find them professing different
political creeds—the one a bastard Democrat,
the other a spurious Whig—the better to ona-
hie them to accomplish the sinister objects they
have in view. The knavo will write the edito
rials for the paper, the fool will print and fath-
er them.
Here, in Carlisle, we see the knave and the
fool engaged in this latter business, and the
weekly Ksuo of the American newspaper is the
joint production of their labors. One after
another of onr citizens issubjectcd to the abuse
nnd slang of (his vile and despicable sheet, and
occasionally the Second Presbyterian Church
(for what reason we know not,).comes in for ai
volley ol slanderous epithets. Tho writer-for
the American is a wretched spccimctiOf.hu-
manity—a vile scab upon society—and com
bines in his composition hatred, revenge, selfish
ness, treachery, and all that is unmanly, sordid
and mean. His character is dngnerreotyped in
his face so indulUbly, ihnt no one who has given
the least attention to the study of physiognomy
can be mistaken in the man. For a wise pur
pose the Creator provided the most venomous
of the snake-species with a rattle, that men
might be warned of its approach and avoid its
poisoned fangs ; with the same humane object
In view the Supreme Rcing stamped this vile
man’s character In his face, as a warning to his
fellow-men to beware of his touch.
In the American of last week we were made
the subject for the poisoned pen of tho knave
of that ephemeral sheet, and, without the least
provocation on onr part, were assailed with
bull-dog ferocity by this black-hearted vaga
bond. We were well aware (hat (his attack:
upon our private and political character .was
long since meditated, and would have appeared
in Iho American several weeks since, but for the
fool of the concern, who refused to give his as
sent to its insertion. He was only induced 'to
agree to its publication after the lash had been
applied to Ins back, and a threat (accompanied
by a horrid oath) had been made that his situ*
ntion wonldbe forfeited, and himself supplant
ed by another of a mpVc cringing nature,' if lie
refused obedience longer to the demands of his
imperioos and brutal master. The lashings
wo had'administered to the knave,.and the
wounds we had inflicted upon him during the
campaign of last full, (although they had par
tially healed oyer,} began again to fester and
become sore, ns the dog-days approached, ond
this stirred up hisgall-bng, ond made him ripe
I Tor slander and vituperation. A vile oed un-
I provoked personal attack upon us, ho vainly
hoped, would fdrhisha balm for hisown wounds,
and at the same time place a barb in the breast
of the editor of (his paper. But he has signal
ly failed in his attempt to thus gratify his re
venge and hatred, for his wounds still smell,
and our equilibrium remains undisturbed.
"Who is this man-—this knave of the Ameri
can ? We feel a want of language to paint his
true character —a lack of ability to show him
lup in his true colors. He is in Ins proper cle
ment only when dealing put vituperation and
slander against his betters. The Judge upon
the bench, the minister in the pulpit, the busi
ness man, the upright politician, the widow and
the orphan, all, all, have in turn been subject
ed to the abuse and slander of this wretched
creature. With tongue apd pen he swears arid
denounces, and thud attempts to gratify adis
eased mind, and .quiet the throbbings of his
base and . trembling soul. Utterly unfeeling,
cold and shameless, he makes It a pointtont

izing sorrow, then it is this wrblch lets, fly his!
poisoned arrows, thick and fast, at the object;
of his hatred. I[o relishes tlic
afforded to revenge himself upon an enemy* and
the contortions of his ugly face when thus En
gaged arc indicative of the malignity nnCC dc>v
