TUB ,4111sKIlMiV AND TUB EIiECTIO.VS. “Whom the Gods wish to destroy they first make mad,” is a trite but true saying, and is clearly exemplified in the course of Know-Noth ing editors* They Iceland know that the days of the Know-Nothings as a party arc number ed, but yet they attempt to keep up the spirits of the Samites by “a big flourish of trumpets” and a liberal sprinkle of misrepresentation and falsehood. Hut tins kind of dvoeplion and band cannot a\ail them ; down they must go -down lu the \ery bottom of the pit of degra dation. The people have So decreed, and their voire is potential -their veidicl cannot be dis puted. We have been led to the above remarks, by reading a prosy article m last \v ink's l>nrm 01. umler the caption of “The I 'ulniitrrr and the Tied ions.” It is over a half coin mu m lengi !i. and is made up of a tissue of faNihood-. from beginning to end. In the first place it is not true that in .South Middleton, North M.ddle lon, Frank fold and Newton townships, “mixed tickets were elected,” at the late Spring elec tions. In all those townships the contest was between the Democrats and the Uuntlinites, and both parlies had full tickets in the Ibid, and the Democrats were successful in eveiy township above naimd. Again, it is prepn*- teroii'-ly false tliat the election of the Inspector is all that the Democracy of Median!.sburg can boast of. The Democrats of that “nour ishing American village” elected the Inspector, burgess, Justice of the Peace, and Assessor. — It appears we were in error in stating {two weeks since) that the Democrats had elertid their Council ticket in that borough. We had been misinformed by one in whom we placid reliance l.nrnl mlerestsc.introled the diction of the Council ticket, and (be Diunv'ratic Can dida'es wne dcfialid.

U is a common habit with gamblers and oilier rogues, to ’unite their fortunes they disiro to accomplish a bold piece of deception and villainy. Generally speaking, they arctoo timid, too cowardly, to “go it alone” when they want to carry out a desperate undertaking. They, therefore, form a kind of partnership for the lime being, and appropriate their joint cun ning to the accomplishment of their sinister de signs. If successful in the undertaking, they divide the booty they have acquired, and each one again assumes business on Ids “own hook,” and ilicy ate no longer known as partners in The ■• I 'moil Stale Convention” that asscni l»Ud at Harrisburg recently, was a meeting of the political thimble-riggers of our estate —a meeting of men who me diametrically opposed to each othrr on many vital political questions, but who arc willing to join hands, and make an ellorl in common to obtain the spoils of of fice. In that Convention could be seen the niack Republican, the Know-Nothing, the Free Sodcr, the DiMimunist, the Fillmore man and the anti-Fillmore man, with their heads hud dled together. concocting plans by which they hope to be enabled to get their Briarcan arms into the Slate and National treasuries. Such a meeting of odds nml ends never before assem bled in IVnns} Ivania, ami for the honor of our Stale vve hope such an one may never assemble again. The ticket placed in nomination by this mongrel Convention, has been aptly de nominated the “Jersey team ticket,” and is composed of a black hoi sc, a gray marc, and a spotted mule. The nominees arc : For Canal Commissioner, Thomas E. Cochran, of York, “an old line Whigfor Auditor General D utwis Pmei.ps, of Armstrong,“an American, formeily a Whig and for Surveyor General, B. I,Ai>oiiTE,of Bradford, “an American Re publican, formerly’ a Democrat.” The < ’hamhersburg Valley Spirit says that the preamble and resolutions adopted by the < 'omentum are of tUy/feisey team stripo too. and in proof of this bving the fuel, makes the follow mg v xtracts : '• If'/ifiivn, ’1 he freemen of Pennsylvania, oppu-id to the National Adminislr.uion, are di\ nfis| into poll 1 1- al organi/.alinns, hoUiinn, an '"inr ,j<, ij eoci mi mental paltry dtveif “/•i > in.i iVr., anil ■■ Uhri • a <. .1 rrnnnil m principle u the -'/ifi/ /--mi/ liial (.iu unite ijj'nltrcly honest men m pohticul action : thiTefore, ] That, animated by.the spirit of cui- , --.i-iii. ire trill ninhalfy unite in the sup- \ poit i-| iht- candidates to lie nominated by this f umeniion, upon the basis of those principles ujiuii which weave nmlmilly agreed.” We would have been completely at n loss for a paralli 1 to “the spirit of concession” mani- I -ltd by the mcmbirs of this Convention, but lor an anecdote we saw in one of our exchanges a few days ago. A negro woman nt the South, who was a member of the church, permitted the Kvil One to induce her to steal a goose.— Tina occnrnd hut a short lime before the peri od for administering the Lord’s supper in her church. Her mistress, (who had been inform ed of the larceny of the goose,) hearing that it was her intention to participate In the service I at the church, endeavored to impress her with the impropriety of engaging in that solemn ex ercise. with the blood of the stolen goose so fresh upon her head. The negro, with*a pious roll of her eyes that set out their whites to the beat advantage. u foßovr a,, according to our exchange: “Bresa dc lor’, missus, I isn’t gwine to May away from do blessed sa viour Jar no nhl gnose, ” We think the memliors of tins Jersey team Convention must have read and profiled by this anecdote. They myt for the purpose uf devis ing a plan to get nt the spoils : they lound that they agreed as to some political questions, but disagreed as to others ; nnd, m a “spirit of eonccsMon'' ns noble as that displayed by the pimi.s old negro, they resolved that the questions as to which they disagreed were “old geese” which should not keep them away trom a political communion table garnished with the •q uiK ollicc.

Scott was nominated for the Presi dency, whatoccans of tears the Loco Foco lead ers shed over Mr. Fillmore! ,'No language was strong enough to convey an adequate idea of the admiration arid love for him! 110 was a pare and incorruptible patriot, and worhty the confidence of all ! He w,aa. indeed “a model President,” whose .Administration had been ‘-‘aa conservative as 'Washington’s!” Yet the very inen who then extolled Mr. Fillmore, will now, for partizan purposes, swallow their own words, belie their own endorsements, and tra duce him as ardently ns they praised him ! The above is from the Philadelphia Daily News; a paper which supports with a hearty good will the nominations of Messrs. Fillmore and Donclson. ' The News is mistaken when it predicts that any of the D( mocrallc “ leaders ” will so far forgct-whiU is due to their own self respect as to ‘’traduce Mr. Fillmore ns ardent ly as they praised him.” But, if they were inclined to do so, all that would be necessary lor them to do, would be lo refer to the files of the Washington Union, during Mr. Fillmore’s administration, vhen Mr. Donclson was editor of that paper; They will there find the opin ions entertained of him by his colleague on the Know-Nothing ticket. We make several ex tracts from the issue of that paper of May 29, 1851, just as samples. Ex uno discc ovines: Mr. Fillmore as much of a monster as Mr. Sumner. It will not be in vain hereafter that the spe cial organ may /Jailer itself that there is a sub stantial difference between Messrs. Sumner. Rantoul and the President and the cabinet. If the head of the preat Whig party is so wedded to ihc infected abolition feeling of a portion of New York as to.be oblige d lo denounce all the great men who have sanctioned the acquisition of territory from France, Spain, and Mexico— if the revolted sentiment of Massachusetts is to be appeased by the assurance that it was a mis fortune that Southern obstinacy and prejudice would not agree for abolition juries lo try their right of property—-if.tbeanti-slavery fanaticism not only of thitfcountry, but of all Europe, is to be propitiated by the assurance that the ad mission of slave territory into our Union is un constitutional—rlbe lime has come when the people of this country will not be amused by the flimsy idea that Air. Sumner is a monster because he declares that the fugitive in Boston shall not be surrendered before trial there, and Mr. Fillmore a patriot and hero because he thinks the negrv ought to have that trial, but yet declares that lie will execute the laws i*e- fusing it Donelson’s Union. j Mr. Fillmore's,Abolition proclivities further exposed. lint we do not despair if an administration, whose boast it las been that it was faithful to the comprMmso of the slavery question ns a measureorpeao and harmony, is no sooner in contact vritbjilic people than it itself to be actuated by a sentiment of deadly* hostility to ihchoulhern section of this Union; for what cat? Im) more hostile than the declara tion that iht stiveholdcr'oughl to be dependent upon abolition Juries for his properly, and that the admission of slave Territories into the Uni ted Slates is amain upon the memory of the great men whoyonnnitted this trespass on the Constitution? ffhere are sound men, a consli onal majority ye trust, in the North and West os well os the South, who will recognize in these sentiments only the usual falacies of a party that has nevemet been identified with national tests of true republicanism, and cannot, there fore, wield the momentary prejudices which gave it power jn such a manner as to perpetu ate that powch. Docs not every one sec that the real effect if not the design, of President Fillmore’s recc it visit to tho people of New- York will bo t e continued organization of an anti-slavery p ,rty, reconciled to tho Compro mise only dccj iseit enables a Whig adminis tration to fain iap.izc.thc people to the.idea that -Mavery U d.-fstjctc&l evil—an *sv\l proscribed by the Whig Hnsciencc, limited to its present arm, and proper to be assailed hereafter in oil the ways widen arc possible, short of the vio lent disruptiol of the Union ? Donelson's Union. Mr. Fillnwro responsible for the dangers of disunion. If the public sentiment hud not boon misled by such Ictlert as Mr. Fillmore wrote to the abolition societies of New York, and by the el oquencc of Mr. Webster, denouncing, as be ad mits be did, Lb) institution of slavery ns n curse and the extcnlbn of territory in the South ns a violation of tht Constitution, the dangers fore seen by Wasli|iglon would not now be the sub ject of hum'ha nig explanation and apology an the part of the [’resident and his cabinet, and the means by vhich the Whig party hopes to perpetuate its power.—Donclson’s Union.

How it could ever enter the heads of a convention of reasonable men to nominate a ticket of suCk discordant ami antagonistic materials, will mzzle all who have been delud ed with the i(J*t that Know-Nothmgism lias any regai d for irinciple. One of two things is rtduccd to a urtaintj'—either that Mr. Fill more is a verykad man, or that Mr. Donelson has greatly shndcrcd him, and is therefore, himself as bad ia ho represents Mr. Fillmore.— Richmond Ex^niner- R vn.uoAD DiHAQES. —Geo.

The approaching elections in Rhode Island,* Connecticut and Maine has had the effect-of thinning the House during the past.week,many; members having “paired oR’Mn order lo lend a helping hand to the people Tn those Statcq.'at the winding up of the campaign, and wo.have, therefore, to note a dull and uninteresting peri od. No business of importance has been done, other than the appropriation for the suppres sion of Indian hostilities in the Territories of Oregon and Washington. Unless “suppression of hostilities” means “annihilation of the In dians,” the appropriation will amount to but little, unless a change of policy towards the In dian tribes is adopted. By a judicious expendi ture of the sum allowed with a strict adherence lo the present management of Indian nflairs, it is possible to kill oil the Indians in detail for some time, but the “hostilities” will not be “suppressed” until the wail of the last Indian is heard on the shores of the Pacific. Let onr people In the Territories deal justly with Ihc red man, and ere long the sound of “Indian hostilities” will pass away to.be heard no more forever. Kindness and fair dealing will be found the best appropriations that can be made for qnietingjlhc Indians. Our treaty with Demark, relating to the payment of Sound Dues by American vessels navigating the Baltic, expires, by limitation, on the IGth inst., and ns yet all is suspense as lo the ultimate action of onr government in the premises. The treaty censes by our govern ment refusing to acknowledge the right of Den mark to levy the tax complained of upon onr commerce, and it seems that steps should be taken to protect our vessels and render the ter mination of the treaty edict. It is thought that secret negotiations arc in progress, with a view to an amicable adjustment of the question with Denmark, but otill mailers look dubious, just now. The warm air of Spring, which has breathed so much activity into all the oilier public works in progress here, has had no effect upon the Washington monument, which stands with its winter cap still on. not an unfit ting emblem of the present “wooden-headed” management, which promised so much and lias done so little.

No man commanded in a greater degree the respect and confidence of that body. When we were called to preside over the House at the the Session of 185-1, u ell knowing that then hole system of our Internal Improvement* would be brought up for a rc-moddeling. and that ft portion of the works would be thrown into market for sale, thus imposing upon the Committee of Internal Improvements, the most arduous and difficult duties, among all the aide men of that Session, we unhesitatingly selected Mr. Sc.'lt as Chair man of that Committee. And in the discharge of liis dulie-s he never disappointed our expec tations. Through the whole exciting and most important struggle of that Session, con- Uoctcd U»'t>uUto iaaproMiTwinf. tib himself in a manner that won golden opinions from nil. Having been long connected with tho construction and management of some of the most important public improvements in tho Slate, he possesses a fund of practical knowl edge in that department of business, which em inently qualify him for the post to which he lias been nominated. Our best energies shall be devoted to his election, for wc kuow him to be honest, competent and right. Mr. Fry was also a member of the Legisla ture of 185-1 He is one of the solid fanners of Montgomery county, ami has seen a pood deal of public service. He was several limes elected to Congress ami lias been several terms in the Legislature. He is a cool, deliberate, sagacious man, of great personal populai ily in his section of the Slate. Judge Ives, we first knew as a Senator. He ranked high in that body, and is e\erywhere legarded as a good man. Altogether it would seem that the Convention m view of the impor tance of the Presidential canvass, hud nomina ted ns pure a ticket as it could possibly have done. Gen*. Jacksi’n's Swnuo,—The Wa-diington Uinui i, in referring to the fact that Major Don elson’a pohlioal capital consists altogether of the sword bequeathed to him in Gen. Jackson’s will, explains the subject and manner of the bequest, and shows that the Majm has woeful ly faded to comply with the terms of the dona tion. It seems that the General possessed two swords which he greatly prized—his war sword (his real service sword,) and his “elegant sword." The first, which was on his thigh in his every battle, was bequeathed to the late Mnj. Robert Armstrong, as being worthy to possess it after the ole chief's death. family have since given it up generously to the Government as a national relic. The other was a sword that had been voted to Jackson by the Legislature of Tenu. Jackson, in his will, bequeathed it to Major A. J. Donclson, with an “injunction” (we quote the language of the testator,) “that ho (A. J. Donelson) fail not to use it, when necessary, in support and protection of our glorious Union, and for the protection of the constitutional rights of our beloved country, should they bo assailed by foreign enemies or domestic traitors.” The editor explains that since Jackson's death, our country Ims passed through a trying foreign war, in which A. J. Donelson evidently forgot that this sword was in his possession; or, al least the obligation on Ins part under which he took possession of it. The editor seems to be of opinion that the Major ain’t a hero any way in which he caq {lx it. DC?* Assassinations arc of almost daily oc currencu in New Orleans.

The steamship Atlantic reached New York on with Liverpool dates to the 19 ult.

The partic’ulhrs dX' to/say tho- least, supremely ridiculous. The young Pririce has. been named Napoleon Eugonu Louis Joan Joseph. Nothing has been heard of the missing steam er Pacific, and the probability is that, like the President and City of Cllangow, nothing ever will be heard of her. Peace is virtually declared. It is said that on the arrival of Baron Mantcuflcl at Paris, tho Protocnl would be signed. The London Times, of the 18th ult., says, in regard to the terms of pence : “If we are to form our expectations on the basis of the present posiiion.it is not unreason able to expect that the Black sea shall be open to the commeice of nil nations: that Sebasto pol shall never again bo a standing menace, cuiitinually directed against the heart of Tur key ; that Russia shall no longer obstruct the greatest artery of European trade for the bene -111 of her own ports ; and that in the Baltic,ns well as in tho Black sen, she shall not make preparations which mean either nothing at all or tho conquest of some weak and terror strick en neighbor. Up to this point wc have estab lished our grounds, and the plenipotentiaries charged with striking the balance of the war will hardly venture to undo what is actually done. '•Of course, llicrc are those who would press for ft good deal more, without considering, per haps, where they Are prepared to slop. If wc once begin to insist that Russia shall have no naval (imminent, no arsenal, no fortified port anywhere, on any sea, or on any river commu nicating with any sea. that is only to raise the cry "DtUiiJn esl Carthago,'* which can hardly be said to be required, now that wc have prov ed that Russia is not the imincible and impreg nable* power she hn» so long affected to be. — Rut there can, we conceive, bo no difficulty in seeing what has been thus far found necessary for the pence of the world anil as little ditliunl ly need there be in making the work already done the basis of pacification.'’ The Lute Speech of Hr. Douglas, The Washington correspondent of the Cin cinnati Times thus speaks of (he late speech of Mr. Douglas, in the .Senate of the United States, upon his bill organizing the Territory of Kan sas into a State. As what he says comes from a political opponent, it may safely be concluded that Mr. Douglas made a speech of surprising power and excellence. The correspondent ob serves : ‘■A buzz of conversation ran through the throng as Mr. Douglas look his scat, and al most instantaneously scores of fingers were seen among the spectators pointing him out to eager gazers. A little preliminary business being disposed of, Mr. Dougins prepared to lake the floor, but yielded an instant to Mr. Hale. who. in his usual good natural style, ob screed that ns the occasion was one of special interest, a great number of spectators were present, a large proportion of whom were of that sox wliich every gentleman loved to honor, ami as they not only fell a great interest in the subject, but also, under the chcumafances, (Mr. Douglas is a widower,) In the orator, he, therefore, moved to suspend the rules and allow the ladies to lake seals in the lobbies. This immment on the part of Mr. Hale created bland .smiles upon (he faces of the ladies, but indignation among the gentlemen, which they exhibited by sour looks and murmurs of dis approbation, very naturally wishing to preserve their seats. Senator Hunter, of Virginia,how ever, came to their rescue ; he objeoltd to Mr. Hale's motion, and U was wlthdiovVnr * ’ ••Mr. Douglas then. rose. He was dressed in a suit of block, with his frock-coat buttoned to the chin, and his thick, dark hair swept negli gently back from Ins massive forehead. In a clear, distinct voice he first read his bill, just introduced, providing for the organization of a Stale government in the Ternloiy of Kansas. This bill is precisely like others of a similar na ture in its- chief details. Having thus laid down a text, Mr. Douglas coimnenctd the exordium <>f l,is spt cell. I shall not attempt to give an abstract of the lung, powej ful and logical argu ment which followed, for space will not allow : but I may say. without At-Jing or favor, that U was the strongest, the clearest and most un answerable vindication of the Nebraska Dili— the most scathing criticism upon Gov. Reeder' the most triumphant vindication of the State rights doctrine—the severest condemnation of emigrant aid sori.-tie.s and (heir conduct—the most able, constitutional argument that I ever had the privilege of hearing.
