Know-Nothing` Bets and Calculations.
In summing up the result of the recent eke
tion in- 'Virginia, the editor of the Washington
Clobe tells seine homely truths. Ile says :
"We have been a close observer of elections
throughout-the length and breadth of the Uni
ted States for thirty-one years, and never saw
_ane_beforeihat_so convuls_td the' peo_ple of the
1/istriet. They used the 'fool's argument' free . -
ly. and many of them have been ruined.—The
•know-nothings' were confident of success, and
het two to one on the result. It is belie.ied that
they lost in this District more than $lOO.OOO
on-the- result.- We are told- by persons who
ought to know that those living on the square
nest west of our office lost $41,000. They has
-a-Weir bets - on caTeliTations that,they had 72
000 in their 'order'-in-Virginia; , whith,--w i thou t
any outsiders, would give them 15.000 majori
ty,over.the largest vote ever cast in the State.
But the best calculations of wise men have of
ten failed and, it is, therefore, not surprising
that a 'know-nothing' calculation shall prove
to be fallacious.' They had a brilliant calcula
tion behind this, which was, that if they should
carry Virginia, by a large majority, then all
the drift-wood would float out. into their cur
..rent, and they would elect their candidate the
next President of the United States. This cal
culation would. have been a good one if their
first contingency had happened. .But as that
has proved erroneous, we think we may safely
say that the 'Old Dominion' has 'scotched the
snake' and killed it."
The Examiner on Pollock Again!
The Independent Whig took the Lancaster
Examiner to task for criticising Gov. Pollock's
appointments : and alleges, on the authority of
the Harrisburg Herald, that Mr. - Darlington
was himself en applicant for office, and feels
sore because of his disappointment. Of course
this is all gammon—and the Examiner of
Wednesday pitches into them, Governor and
all, in the following caustic strain :
The Harrisburg Herald is published by the
Rev. Stephen Miller, Goi. Pollock's Flour In
spector. and is regarded as the Governor's-or
gan. We now pronounce its assertion that
the editor of this paper was an applicant for
office under Gov. Pollock, a wilful and delib
erate falsehood. If the Herald spoke -by au
thors!y, we extend the charge -to its master,
although we can htirdly be brought to believe
the Governor has got, so low as to resort to
such means of defence. Nevertheless, he is
responsible for the language of his organ, and
unless he causes it promptly to retract, we
shall be oblig ed to exhibit the Governor of
Pennsylvania in a very humiliating position.
The editor of the Examiner did feel an inter
est in the success of one or two gentlemen
who were applicants for appoiuiment to in
spectorships—gentlemen whom we knew to
be qualified for the respective posts for which
they applied—whose long and unremitted zeal
in behalf of Whig principles, and whose un
flinching.Adelity to the Whig flag in the dark
eSt.hours Of adversity, seemed to entitle them
to remembrance in the day of prosperity.
They were original "Pollock-men," too : the
men who "set the ball in motion" which car
ried the present incumbent into the executive
chair. When these gentleinen were all passed
coldly by and the most lucrative office in the
Governors. gift (leather inspector) bestowed
upon a yankee, but a few years resid. nt of the
State, and unknown as ipolitician—when the
inspectorship-of flour was given to a canting,
hypocritical preacher like the publisher of the
Herald, to the exclusion of meritorious practi
cal men—when other lucrative offices were
bestowed upon locofocos who left their party
because they were not considered worth the
fodder for which they incessantly bawled—we
felfvexed and mortified, and as is our custom,
expressed our thoughts in plain language.
The Governor's organ can only reply by fabrica
ting the mean falsehood that our remarks wet e
owing to disappointed-tersonal aspirations.
If the publisher of the Herald holds the flour
inspectorship in consideration of "bearing false
witness" against those who dare to speak
boldly their opinion of the acts of his master,
it is perhaps well he got it. A high minded
man would not hold the office on such terms
and the Governor probably knew he was get
ting a proper instrument for the duty required
to be performed.
Remains of the Past—Extract from a
Whig "Hard Cider" Song of 1840.
One of our democratic country contempora
ries has recently come across a whig hard cider
Song book of 1840 memory. From one of its
etrusions it makes the folloWing eloquent ex
tract, which we commend to the attention of
our readers as a specimen of whig blarney of
Irishmen then very common :
.Ilere's to our fathers and mothers,
tikewisc tip milt Ireland too,
Down with Martin Van Buren,
And up with Old Tippecanoe !"
The whigs who sang - that song in 1840 are
now know nothings; ? It takes the whigs to
make political sonnets.—Cita. Enri.
Anourios BLASPIIMIL—Itinakes the blood
curdle in the veins to read the horrible blas
phemies of some of the Abolition Leaders of
the Know-Nothing Order. Here is one that is
rvally appalling, and we would not permit it
to appear in our columns, were it nut to show
the public the true character of these abomina
ble infidels. Henry Ward Beecher calls Gar
rison ••my dear brother Garrison," and Garri
son publishes - a communication in his Liberator
which • says,. "If Clod has the power to abolish
slavery, and does nut, he is a very great
1-coundrel." Such are the blasphemous senti
ments uttered by the abolition organ. and yet
thousands of ministers of the gospel. are as
sociated with this man in the Know-Nothing
movement, and endorse his actions by their
votes. This , is consistency.— Pennsylvanian.

PURIFICATION OF THE BLOOD,
AND LIVER. AND BILIOUS COMPLAINT'S.
- -
The citizens of the Union suffer much from
disorders of tne Liver and Stomach, scarcely
any are free froth these destructive maladies,
hence life wears fast. The fair sex, perhaps
the most handsome in the world, up to a cer
tain period when, distressing to say, many
lose their teeth and good looks, while yet in
the heyday of life;
such sad evils may be ef
fectually remedied continually keeping the
blood pure, and the Liver and Stomach in a
healthy action, when life will flow smoothly,
and resemble plants in a genial clime, where
an eternal spring -appears to reign. As it re
gards the preservation of the human _frame,
and the durilion of life, much may be e ff ected,
and I say fearlessly, t hat health and life cam
be prolonged for many years he 4 , ond their or
dinary limits, if Holloway's Pillk: are taken to
purify the blood according to the rules laid
down for health, contained in the direetion
which aeco:npany each box.
