Next Saturday
Is the day appointed for holding the Delegate
Elections. Every Democrat should bear in
ntind that it is his duty - to attend and vote fur
trustworthy men to represent his Township or
borough in the Convention. In these days of
:Know Nothing deception more than ordinary
care should be taken in the selection of Dele
gates. None but capable and pure men should
be' chosen. and with such a .Convention - we
: may be certain that an excellent ticket will be
nominated—such a ticket as will command the
.united and enthusiastic support of the people..
Then we can, go into the contest boldly and
.fearlessly, relying, on the correctness of our
principles to giie us the victory..
o'Doll i tt fail to reztd the address of tho
Democratic State Central Committee.
frf•The Democrats of Allegheny county have
nominated Hen. Val. WILKINS for the State
senate—an excellent step—and Messrs. Rees

the [louse of Representatives. Rody Patter
son is the nominee for Sheriff.
The Democrats of Crawford have nominated
Jesse Smith and A. B. Richmond for the Legis
lature.
The Democrats of Cumberland have nomina
ted their ticket, and the Vo/unteer says it is
one of the best ever presented to the people of
the county. Wm. Harper and James Ander
son are the nominees for the Legislature.
The Cemetery.
The corner-stone of the Gateway building at
Even GREW; Csuirraity was laid on Saturday
last, with appropriate ceremonies. An address,
beautiful and appropriate, was
,delivered by
Rev. R. aux.. Rev. Drs. SCIIMUCKEILL and
BAUGISIRR, and Rev. R. JouNsTmi, also par
ticipated in the exercises. D. .I.llcCoN.AuGuy,
Esq., made a brief statement of the pecuniary
condition of the Company, adverting to the
almost unanticipated success which has attend
ed the enterprise thus far, and the flattering
prospect in the future. The attendance was
unexpectedly large.
A sale of.burial lots took place in the after
noon, and . a handsome number were disposed
of. There is, however, still room for others.
LARGE - APPLIL—ME. FRANKLIN SWISHER, of

The Religions Test.
The Know • Nothings of Louisiana, South
Carolina, and 'Missouri, repudiate and will
have—nothing to do -- roritir - the ---- fest - which - pro.
scribes members of the Catholic. church, be
lieving- and declaring, as they do, such test
to be POt,onlv unconstitutional, but as inflict-
it a grievous wrong upon a large and re
spectable class of citizens, who are as prompt
to pay their taxes and perform all other duties
which the laws impose upon them, as any
other class of community. John M. Botts, too, e
the leading light of Know Nothingism in NTir
ginia. takes the same ground, and is endeavor
ing his utmost to raise the order above the
mean work of denying to others what they de-.
nand for theMselves=the right to worship
God as their conscience and judgment dictate.
.Here, in Pennsylvania, however, the K. N's.,
or more particularly such of their journals as
are edited by those mist eager for office, (en
tertaining the very natural fear that the order
will die out before they get a grab into the
Puyic ib,) are unsparing in their denuncia
tions of this same sect—would deny to its
members all character for good citizenship—and
array them, in their columns, as anti-republi
can, dangerous, and everything that iS to be
feared. By placing these two opposite courses
of K. N. action side by side, a beautiful picturo
of consistency ispiesented—such a picture, in
deed, as should turn every honest man in the"
order 'against the reckless demagogu es who
bind it down to the narrow and intolerant poli
cy of denying to, others, in- a free land, 'the
right of worshipping Clod as to them may seem
best.
The Democratic party never has, and
never w ill, adopt nor proscribe any man on
account of his religion. It is the party of the
Constitution-4nd being such, it would do
violence to the very principles upon which it
was founded, and now rests, did it alter its
course a single degree, and particularly upon
points so sacred as those involving the rights of
conscience. The framers of the Constitution
saw the gross impropriety of allowing religi
ous tests, and hence unanimously adopted a
clause roitumniNG all acts of so illiberal and in
tolerant a character. The Democratic party
now stands where they then stood, and will'
defend the glorious charter of our libel tics to
the last generation.
‘ ---- The Know Nothing leaders find them
selves •headed oft"' by the pledges which Dem
ocrats demand from and give to each other, (in
order to guard against and •pick up" such
sneaking Know Nothings as may meanly at
tempt to impose upon the party,) and, as a
consequence, the said K. N's. are ranting and
floundering - about must furiously, in the vain
hope of pitching upon someiiillig that will
make up for the injury which the "heading
oft" system has inflicted upon them. They
ATC even kindly (?) advising the Democrats to
split up, and tear each other's clothes, just to
let them—the K. N. leaders, not the rank and
file—have their pockets filled out of the public
purse. _ But the Democrats are not so easily
caught, such attempts having frequently been
made upon them before. - The advice is . too
clever—not worth a "thanlece," •
The fact is, the Democrats never made a
practice of giving heed to the admonitions of
the opposition, and we hardly think they will
do so now, when that opposition has descended
—down; down, noww—to Know Nothingism.
1 - 'Tlie President has removed Judge El
more, of Kansas, for the same reason assigned
for the removal of Governor Reeder—specula
tion in` Indian lands contrary to law. But we
hear no regrets amongst our free-soil friends at
his removal—no -tears are shed over his fate
Why this difference—why make "fish of one
and flesh of the other ?-" If it was wrong to
remove the one, it was equally wrong to re
move the other for the same cause. Why,
then, this ominous silence in reference to the
Judge ? Is it because he happens to be a South
erner, or is the fountain of their tears exhaust
ed ? Wo cannot, for the life of us, perceive any
difference in the present position of tho two
men.
THE REACTION IN rOWA.—The Know-Noth
ings are suffering as decided reverses in the
West as in the South. At the recently hotly
contested election in Keokuk, lowa, for State
officers, the Democratic candidates-had major--
itie,s ranging from 34 to 104—or an average of
58. In April last the Know-Nothing party
carried the city by 201 majority. Jefferson
county, which last fall gave 194 fusion major
ity, has just elected a full Democratic ticket by
40 majority. In Davenport, at the recent elec
tion, there was a Democratic majority of 150.
The whole county (Scott) gives an average
Democratic majority of at - out 100. In April
last, fusion and Know-Nothingism had 350 ma
jot ity in the county
WRY 7S IT ? —The Lebanon 3dvertiscr very
pertinently asks, Why is it, that we can pub
lish the named any individual as a Democrat or
Whig without eliciting the least objection, but
when we publish a man as a Know-Nothing.
lie at once takes exception, and complains that
we are blackguarding him A Democrat or a
Whig is not ashamed to be known as such—a
K. N. takes it unkindly if you hint it of him,
and complains loudly that you intend to injure
him.
We don't hear much about the roligious
test in the Constitution of New Hampshire
now-a-days. Some of the persons that arc now
leading now-Nothings, used to be much dis
tressed at the injustice it inflicts upon the Cath
olics. Prentice, the inciter and apologist of
Louisville demons, thought, in 1.5'2. that
New Hampshire was a —miserable abode of
most infamous bigotry," and that ••liberal-
minded Protestants should sit their faces
against her as long as she retains the infamous
test in her Constitution."

Look Out !
Know Nothings are again prowling
around the count ry_at nig.hf,. seeking to deceive
the unwary into their traps, to use them at the
next election. The name of "Know Nothing"
has lost.its attraction ; and we wwe told last
week b r several 'Democrats from the countr
that they- had been invited bydark-lantern
office-seekers to join the "free Americans:"
But they understood the 'design of the dema
gogurs, and gave them to know that it was too
late in the day to furth&-Att. 'vc the people.
The novelty hasivrti — tiff —the • in is drawn
aside, and the whole corrupt mass ex osed.
But. still, let the people be on their guard
against the plots of Know Nothingism. Itsa
leaders are becoming desperate at the gloomy
'appearance of matters on their side of the house.
and will -hesitate at nothing to carry—"the
spoils." Take out word for that.
Another Failure !
, r - i-A month or more since, it was given out
that a Know Nothing - "Grand Mass Meeting"
was to take place at Hanover, on a given -day,
but when the Limo arrived,mo such meeting
occurred —the alfajr having turned out a com
plete failure. %riffled at this, the leaders
determined that the order should not lose by
the operation, and sent out flaming handbills,
,calling another "Grand Mass Meeting", of the
faithful, at the same place, - On Saturday last.
But, from the accounts which even some of the
K. N's. themselves give, the last was little bet
ter than the first attempt. It was another
failure, though not quite so bad as the previous.
One don't hear a boastful word abolt the at
tendance, the speeches, or any part of the pro
ceedings. The effect has beea . to lower, in
stead of heighten, the confidence of the order
in their strength.
A part of the small delegation which
went there from this place, must yet,
to some extent, be opposed to an "open move
ment." They wouldn't enter the coach until
it got out of town !. Know . Nothingism still
"loves darkness rather-than the light."
TEN NESSM—TIie Louisville Journal pub
lishes a dispatch from Nashville; dated August
8, which says.—
• "The Dog's' dead at last, but died hard.
All the counties-in but two. Johnson is elect
ed by from ono thousand to fifteen hundred
majority."
The dog alluded -to is "Sam." The con
gressional delegation will probably stand five
democrats to five know nothings—a democra
tic gain of one.
A NOTIIHR 'FLA P AT "SAM. "—The distingnish
ed politicians and statesmen of the country are
busy just now definilg their position upon the
question of Know-Nothingism. Among the
latest efforts, is a letter, from Senator Benjamin,
of : Louisiana, in which he is very severe upon
the*ew part, and argues that its principles
'are'ihose of the dark ages.
Vlii.Gcorgetown, 'D. C., on Thursday. at a
Municipal election, the Democratic ticket had
240 'votes, K; N. ticket 241. At the -recent
election for Mayor,. the . K. N. .candidate had
158 majority. It is such signs as these that
drive ollice-hunting Know-Nothings into fusion
meetings. -
L - " The Fever is still on the increase at Nor
folk, and so violent has it become, that it is
Suggested to remove the whole population to
Old Point or some other healthy location, that
there may be no more material for the disease
to work upon. The inroad which the disease
has made is truly heart-rending.
