However 'ridiculous" the idea i. it is

he aims to be ( lecled (Jovcrnor of IVun

preferment are based upon an act which
his own party organs pronounce of "ridic

whether these expectations will he grati.

Ik!'A fatal and most singular accident
occurred at ihe Clento Rolling Mill, in
South Pittsburgh, Pa., on Wednesday
last. It appears that some days ago the
brush on tho hill, immediately iu tho rear
of the Mill, was sr t on fire, and has since
continued to burn nlowly. Wednesday
afternoon it rcuched somo lo-s, ono of
which supported n large stone, wcMiiu-r,
perhaps, somo 300 pounds. Tl.c los
were consumed, and the stone bcin" left
without support, it rolled down the hill i,t
a terrific rate, entered the rear of tho mill
where u man. Adam Wcvland. was em-
ployed, and striking him on tho head and
breusl, it crushed him so that ho died in
less than two minutes. The distance from
the point of the hill from where tho stone
fell to tho mill was about three hundred

that obligation w hich you have just taken,
to preserve American institutions hv ihe
entire and absolute exclusion of all for

from control or participation in tho atniirs
of your country."1
To this instruction the candidate, Mr.
Pollock, bowed his assent. Mr. Conrad
did ! lie same on a previous occasion.
Now, what would be the conditio!, of
Mr. Pollock or of the wise. (?) head ofonr
I c:ly government, il he should be called in
to Court to testify against one or more of
"that band of brothers." Observe there
is no tpialificv.ion to thisoalh. It must he
obeyed whether the objects be legal or
not whether the nets and doings of "ihat
band of brothers'' he in conformity to, or
in violation of the law. Is it not a'shame
lesj outrage that a man should be at thn
head of a beautiful and thriving city, who
thus stands pledged to screen the violators
oi the law? Is it not a worse outrage to at.
tempt to place in the gubernatorial chair of
a Commonwealth, one whose political, re-'
ligit.iis and social liberty is based upon tiie
most unrestricted principles of intolerance,

f a paltry mess of pottage, would

Again, we say Mr. Pollock if you don't
li. long to this order, take issue and plead
'' li'iti't. We stand prepared to convict
you before the freemen of Pennsylvania.

AMI-MASONIC KNOW NOTIllNGiSM.
Wiih a very few isolated exceptions, the
Democratic pressofthis State, and through
out the Union generally, has taken decided
ground against the Know-Nothing move
mcnt. Some Whig papers also protested

nia became sudden converts to its merits,
recounted with great joy its triumphs, and
encouraged ns much as possihlu the for
mation of new Lodges. It is not manv
yea is smco these papers were full of Anti
Masonic zeal, and throughout many por
tions of the State, ihe opposition party was
known only as the Anti-Masonic party.
.
In a lew years more it became the Atiti-
sonic Whig party. After aw hile it was
the Democratic Whig Partv. Now ii is
flic" Know-Nothing party. For tho benefit
of its members, and that its name may be
suggestive of its character, it is to be hoped
that these names will all be used together,
so as to read "The Anti-iMason.c Demo
cratic Whig Know-Nothing party." This
tiilc is tolerably expressive of the incon
sistency of the opposition to the Democ
racy, but it would be still further improv
ed by a few more reminiscences. In 1810,
it was the "Hard Cider" party; it notv
claims to be the exclusive champion of Tem
perance. In l-o'J, it endorsed the com-promio-c
measures, including the Fugitive
Slave Law ; its c ind.datc is now tamper
ing to ail the vagaries of the Abolitionists.
In 1 '")"J, its candidate was a warm lover
of the "iieh Irish brogue" and "tweet
German accent;" in 13), Mr. Pollock
out-hcrods Herod in the radical tone of his
Native American doctrines. In lS37and
in 1"J!I, our opponents passed laws auth
orizing a sectarian division of the Common
School Fund ; they now assert that they
alone can prevent such a division, &c.
So if the title of the party is to be nn in
dication of its principles, wo must style it
the "Anti-Masonic, Democratic. Whiz.
