THE ISMS.'
Our antagonists—tho Whig-Abolition-Know
Nothing-Native American party —an* ardent, zeal
ous, almost untiring, in tlioir efforts. Their zonl,
fairly directed in the pursuit of a propor object,
would do them honor. As it is, ‘it but Serves to
render their course moro glaring in its inconsis
tencies, and to show more palpably their time-ser
ving tendencies.
In the presont gubernatorial canvass, they Inn o
not dared to imiko the past course of (lev. Hioi.rcn
tlie issue. They know and fe«d that his career for
the.Jnst two and a half yours lias been that of an
Unties , capable, and fearless incumbent- oftbo Ex
ecutive Chair. We defy them U/ point their finger
to that official act in which lie hunot displayed
all tho qualities essential to the position he so
worthily fills. They well know that the intelli
gent yuoinnury of PeunsylvuiTtn, have an abiding
ronfidoneo in tho capacity ami integrity of Gov.
Higlcr—und henro they were wise in avoiding
that issue.
Their Course uow is, to get up sido-issucs, and
by playing a grand scheme of deception, arouse
the prejudices of tho community, add thus form
a grand coalition with Abolitionism, Nativisin, ami
all the other isms and dogmas in which the pres
ent age is so prolific.; pledge their candidate to
perform every thing for every party, ami with flic
rank ami file of their disciplined forces, join sufli
■ drill of these odds and ends together to elect their
ticket. Hut It will not work. The people muv be
deceived for a time. The hour for reflect ion, and
day for action, will set all tilings .-t might, and the
once respeetnhle Whig pnrty, that ilaimed a Clay
and a Webster for its leaders, will receive such a
rebuke from tjie sovereign people of our sturdy old
Commonwealth as those who arc so reckless as to
coalesce with traitors to our National and State
Constitutions alone deserve.
Cpon the Nebraska question, our opponent.® can
not do themselves (ho honor to claim the position
they occupy as their own. In this, since lHf>2,
they hnvo gone over to tho Abolitionists. They
have espoused Abolitionism in order that they
may secure to Mr. Pollock tho vote of that faction.
rpnii this question, we stand up in defence of the
sovereignty of the people, absolving them from a
mere dictatorial policy, doubtful in it* constitu-
tionality, and anti-republican in its essence, and
allowing the inhabitant.* of Nebraska and Kansas
to regulate tho question of slavery by their own
votes. 'Hie practical working of the bill by which
these territories were udmitlcd, will bo to exclude
slavery from both : unless, indeed, an is now bare
ly possible, the officious intermeddling of New
Kngland families to fill tho territory of Kansas
with Abolitionists and Tree Sailers as a source of
annoyance to the adjacent southern States, shall
beget counter-action on the part of the citizens t f
those States. No sane man pretends to assert that I
slavery cun or will c.xteud north of the Missouri
Cotnproiuine line, unless impelled bv some such 1
ui.uise poli.y as that recently atfmpled in the
ea.-l with regard to Kansas. •
Cpon the temperance issue, n convention whs j
failed, letters were addressed ti the candidates,]
and certain questions propounded, prepared, no
doubt, liy the gentleman who lira tit (hr Comm it(r> , t

opinion, than he is hy a solemn oath? Thi* is a
.M'lious question, and oio- flint deinaioU the deep

temperance men.
Look, lor a moment, at the position of our can
didate: He sjiys lie "sincerrly deplores the evils
of intemperance.” Who that knows him will dis
pute it? He also says that a 1 w rany he passed
that will be nneoiist itutional - so. too, one that will

than that \vhi< h flov. Uigler has answer' d he will
take ? His course in this particular, like hi l - w bole
oflieial career, is fearless, conscientious, ami in
dependent, and [daces him in a position proudly
above the dousing sycophancy of Mr. Pollock.
Know Nothingistn and Nativisrn nre elements
Hought earnestly to be ineorj»ornte<l into the im
muculutv Whig part_ . They strike boldly mid
broadly at the constitution. Their work will not
bear the light-of day. The banners of true repub
licans are always unfurled on the outer walls. 8e-
erepy in a republican government upon political
J questions is ol itself odious; hut how much more
| odious do their principles become when we find
I that the main article of their faith is directly in
I the teeth of an express provision of the ('oustitu
| tion of Pennsylvania, proscription for religious’
J sake. The 4th section of the tfth article of that
document is in llieso words : “No person who ac
knowledges the being ol a (Jod, uml a future state
of rewards and punishment, shall, mi account of
his religious sentiments, bo disqualified to hold any
offieo or place of trust or profit, under this Com- 1
momveaUh.” The 'Constitution of the Cnitod
States contains a similar guarantee to the froedom
of conscience. Know Nothingism, a/in* Nutivisin,
therefore, is moral treason to both our State and
National Constitutions. j
| The position of the Democratic party evor has
j boon,and wo trust ever will be, favorable totliodoe
j trines contained in thq section abovo quotori, and
[ tho section immediately preceding it; und if our
j Whig and Know Nothing friends dosiro tho issuo

Eloquent Fakewell. —The Baltimore

takes louvo of tlio Northern Whig parly
'in the following eloquent language:
I “If it (the Northern Whig Party) pre

she never expected to occupy, to a cordial

Canada—forC'nnada whose population was
driven from the~Riipiiblicim colonics be
en uso they would not defend their liberties
but still repeat the traditions of confisca
tion and exile, who sneer nloo'r'lnstitutions
and laud with Cbseqintius loyalty those
which they derive from the crown. If tho
Northern Whigs prefer an alliance with
such people, to one with those who quitted
their Southern homes to lio on Boston
Heights confronting a powerful joe, with
the ammunition to have rejmlsed him—
who endured the trials of Valley Forge—
who met the confident foe at Mt'umouih,
and crossed the wintry Delaware to strike
a blow for freedom wheirshe most despair

Massachusetts in trenches at Ynrktovvn,
and saw the humbled battalions of the
haughty invader pile their weapons at their
feet. If the Northern Whig* are willing
as they have professed, to change Ameri

circuuisturiccs withhold our approval.—
Sell-respcct—the protection of our fire

The Pennsylvanian in on article on tho
same subject says: “Never has any parly,
