We ask .Gen. Pierce to deal fairly with us—what he would not sanction in Sew York, he should not sanction in Midsottri. If it Is the doctrine pf the ' , National Democracy" to oppose Know-Nothingism, we want to know who are National Democrats—whether they are the men Gen. Pierce appoints to °Mee, or, whether they aro those who Gon. Pierce disntir.scr.

Yet these' melt hold all the Government offices In the city and state. We cannot un ,_dicstand how it is, and would like some of the Pierce" Sa ctional" organs to explain. Present appearances indicate tile suceo.: of the Lama•_ • ray In this city at the April election by a large majority The E., S's. are frightened, and many with whom I have. conversed, give up all hope of ever making a respectable show. They now say they did not start out in the com mencement the right way—it was but policy to proscribe the Catholics, Sc.. but they have no doubt forgotten the fact that when the K. N's carried this city, they did it only and solely by the Catholic vote—Luther M. Kenneth for Congress, obtained the entire Irish vote, and Mr. King, the present Mayor (only for a brief period yet) carried his election by a large portion of the German vote being cast for an indepouloil candidate, and in his securing two. thirds of the Irish vote—many of these Irish voted the K. N. ticket because, as they said, they were as good Ameri can citizens as any of the bloody Know Nothings!" This is the way they succeeded in this city, and we presume the like mode was practiced In other sections. It is to be hoped, however, that those who assisted iu bringing about this foul stain upon our country, have Lou satisfied to their hearts content—more especially the Irish and Ger- If one was to judge from the tenor of the few rabid K . N. papers, Mr. Fillmore has been most enthusiastically en dorsed by the Dark Lantern order, but the facts are quite the reverse. The Louisville Corier, a staunch old Whig paper, says the nominations were most emphatically con demned by more than two thirds of the K. N. Lodges in Kentucky, and ie of opinion that if the withdrawals Con tinue much longer as they have begun, the Democratic nominee will sweep the State of Kentucky by 10,000 ma: jority In November next. The Whig papers of Illinois condemn and denounce the Convention that nominated Fillmore and Donelson—they like Fillmore well enough, but cannot support him as 'a Knew-Nothing candidate.— This is the feeling in lowa, Wisconsin, Indiana and many other States, and„the general impression among the "know ing ones" seems to prevail that Mr. Fillmore will not accept the nomination of such a party. "Andrew Jackson" Don elson was put upon the 'ticket to make doubly sure the South, but we are Inclined to believe the South will repu diate him, as they would any other traitor. So far then as the South is concerned, he has killed the ticket, ruined the prospects and blast° d the hopes of the Know-Nothing members of the South. Ia the Democratic ranks everything moves along wel I and if any change has taken. place It Is a still stronger feeling in favor of "Pennsylvania's Favorite Son." It is believed here by ninny that Mr. Buchanan will receive the nomination by acclamation. Those who have gone from the Democratic party over to the enemy, wilt come back to a man and unite upon him for the Presidency . Let us have hint nominated, and a glorious and triumphant victo ry will once more crown the Democratic party of the coun try. A VOICE FROM VIRGINIA For the Intelligent:fir .E Lencastorian The Presidency and vice Presidency amass. EDITORS have just read with extreme pleas - ure the resolutions adopted by your late State Convention: They are admirably drawn, and breathe the true demo. cratic fire. They are full and to the point upon all the grave questions involved in the coming Presidential contest, and form a platform of principles upon which every sound national democrat in the Union can stand without the slightest compromise of A single tenet of democratic faith, or the surrender of a single abstract idewof State Rights. Virginia has heretofore stood unrivalled for her admirable democratic resolves, bat eho may now surrender to her noble sister, Pennsylvania, the palm which she has so long and gracefully borne. With such a platform of principles enunciated by the National Convention, the world, the Seth and Satan will not be able to stand against our forces. They who say the Northern Democracy are not sound and reliable upon all the sectional questions of the day, are liars and the truth is not in them. As a zealous supporter of Mr. BCCHAWAN for the Presi dency in the last National Convention, and as a warm po. lltical friend of his for the same honor in 1816, I congratu late you upon the growing prospects for his nomination in all sections of the Union. If Pennsylvania will go into the National Convention united in behalf of her distinguished eon, and claiming his nomination not only upon his own merits, hut upon the ground of Justice to the great Demo" ensile State of Pennsylvania, which has never had a Presi dent selected from her citizens, though ono of the oldest and staunchest Democratic States in the Union—he will oertainly bear off the nomination in triumph. I know something of public sentiment in Virginity—was a delegate to our late State Conventisn, and canvassed closely the relative strength of the several gontlemen most prominent ly in the field for the nomination, and I do not hesitate to say that Mr. BUCHANAN to the choice of nearly, if not every Electoral District in the State. I do not e~•gerate—l speak what I do know, and tile result of her vote at Cincinnati will prove it. 'Virginia and Pennsylvania will have the same first choice In that Convention. With Mr. BUCHANAN as the Democratic candidate for the Presidency, the question Is not an unimportant one : who shall be on the ticket for the Tice Presidency ? As Virginia will not claim the first honor I think she may, with the utmost confidence; claim the second. Who should she se lect? Who among all her sons is most worthy the post ? I would revectfully suggest the name of the Hon. THO3LAS BOCOOK, of the U. S. Hottse of Representatives. He is one of her ablest and most accomplished public men. He. has served some eight years in Congress, and during the last two sessions held the high and responsible position of Chairman of Naval Affairs, the duties of which he dis charged with singular ability. BUCHANAN & BOCt)CK ! Depend upon it, Messrs. Editors, that is the ticket.— Plaaarivanu. and Vatanna! united, the Democracy is tri umphant and the Union safe—divided, both are in danger. The great States of New York and Ohio may vote the KIIONI , • Nothing or Black Republican ticket; but with Pennsylva nia and Virginia voting together, the election of our ticket I. certain. Two or three Northern States—Maine, Now llaurpaldre, Connecticut and New Jersey; or Indiana, Illi nois, Michigan, Wisconsin and lowa—any two or three of these States ensures the triumph of the Democracy. No ticket, in my humble Judgment, would be more likely to secure these States than that of BOOET.A.NAN k Bococa. They .would be a tower of strength In thotiorthand East, South and West, and I sincerely hope it may be the of the National Ctorvention to make them our I ra in the coming fight. • • • . . linurs in haste, LsxclisVAa r Ta i March 21,1858. & :Ground Hogs., .

It becomes evident that the now species resembles the Ground Hog in more ways thari one, and the only difference we recognise, is that the former differs from the newly found species, in being a iinedruPed, while the latter is a biped And many argue, that were it not. for this distinction, no differ. enee—at least no marked one—could be observed, and the resemblance then would be complete. 8o despicable appears to have been the character of this famous individual, that among the ancients no notice whatever was taken of him—never was homage paid him, and nowl,re can see find that his ilogship had a place as signed him In the calendar of the saints of heathen my thology.

However, for the benefit of those on whose minds linger a doubt, the investigations of the learned Lodi of men will be made public with all pos. sible despatch. . Our exchange papers from nearly every part of the Union, where elections lige been held within the past few months, arow that the so-called American party has virtually died out. In many places, where one year ago, its advocates were largely in the majority, but few now remain, ad! these have, in a great measure, abandoned their secret meetings.— The intelligent portion who were in the order, disgusted with the mummeries which were nec essary to its continuance, have returned to the party with which they formerly acted. In this State attempts were made to galvanize the party, but without success. Even the nomi inations of Fillmore, and " that other individ ual, donelson," have failed to inspire among those who adhere, any confidence or hope of success. Its political principles, when under stood, were abhorrent to every true Ameri can heart, and its demise will be hailed with satisfaction by all, and by none more thalii those who being deceived by the representa tions of its members were induced to attach themselves to it from patriotic motives. DELEGATES.—The Philadelphia Annual Con ference has elected the following gentlemen delegates to the General Conference, which is to meet at Cincinnati in the month of May viz : Rev. J. P. Durbin, Penned Comae, William Cooper, J. Cunningham, T. J. Thompson, W. M'Cuombs, Francis Hodgson, G. R. Grooks and T. J. Quigley. In the borough of Lebanon (at the recent March election) the Democrats and old line Whigs elected their whole ticket by an average majority of about 75 over the Know-Nothings and Black Republicans combined. The Democrats and old line Whigs have carried a majority of the townships in Leba non county. The Advertiser is crowing lust ily over the result, and well it may. The editor says:—" Next fall with Jimmy Buck for our candidate for President, we will 'do better' in this borough, and also carry the county by at least 500 majority." An original picture of John Hampden, the celebrated English Patriot, is now in the Custom House at Philadelphia. There are but two of them , extant, and this one was presen ted, through Mr. Buchanan, to the people of the U. States, l y a Scotch gentleman named M'Gregor. The picture will remain at the Custom House until Mr. B's return from Eu rope, when, we presume, h6' will present it to Congress. OPPOSITION OF MARS.—On Wednesday next, (to-morrow,) the planet Mars, after an interval of more than twenty-five months, will again come into opposition to the sun, and to its least distance from the earth during its present revolution. It, therefore, on that day will rise in the east as the Sun goes down in west, and even in the twilight maybe recogniz_ ed by its brilliant red light. Indeed, for some time past it has been, after about 8 P. M., the most conspicuous object in the southeastern sky. SNOW STOR3I.-A heavy snow storm occur red at Pottsville, on Thursday evening last.— A similar storm was experienced, the same evening, at Norfolk, Va.,•and . at several other points. We had the storm in this vicinity, but no snow. Friday was a cold, blustery dny, and Saturday was'nt much better. Since then it has moderated considerably, but still "win ter seems to linger in the lap of spring." OLD GUARD Late Foreign News The steamship Emeu arrived at Boston, on Thursday, with four days later news from Eu rope. The Peace Conference, was in daily session at Paris, but nothing had transpired in regard to the proceedings. In the Crimea a neutral line had been traced between the allied armies and the Russians. The White Works at Sebastopol were blown up on the 2Sth of February. A financial crisis bad occurred at Constantinople. The navigation of the Danube had been re-opened. A great commercial crisis had occurred in Norway.— In the city of Bergen, alone, twenty houses had suspended payment. Breadstuffs were a fraction higher, at Liv erpool, at the sailing of the Emeu. STILL LATER FROM EUROPE.—The steamer Canada, from Liverpool, arrived at Halifax, on Friday evening last, with European dates to the 15th. Atlantic arrived out on the 12th, and Mr. DALLAS, the American Minister, immedi ately proceed to the Adelphi Hotel, where a deputation of the American Chamber of Cora merce presented him a congratulatory address. Nothing definite had yet transpired respect ing the doing of the Peace Conference—but the belief was general that a treaty would be a g reed on. There is no longer any excitement in England respecting American affairs. The steamship Illinois arrived at N. Y. on Thursday, bringing news from California and Oregon two weeks later. The Illinois brings $1,260,000 in gold. A bill to divide Califor nia into three Sates has been introduced into the Legislature. An Indian battle had oceur red at Puget Sound. The removal of Gen.

The effect I am forced by facts to admit, was almost magi cal, and I have the pleasure of saying et this writing, (May. 2d, 1552) I am entirely free from any pulmonary trouble.
