I PACE OF THIS PAPER-
declaration ok indewekdesce
AHD! THE KNOW SOTHISO!.
W» publish to-day this time honored doou
moot, and Ootnmend it to the perusal of our
fellow citii ene.' In these times of new fangled
notions, at dfoctions and isms, it will be nsefnl
to readomic.moro the writingsof the Fathers of
the Republic. In them will be fonud the fonda
mental principles of onr government, announced
With a ole trhoss and firmness that shows that
the great principle of self-government was as
well undo ’Stood in those early days as now, if
not mnoh'bCtter.
; One olaose in the Declaration of Independence
' ws wdnld especially commend to the considera
tion of the Know Nothings. In enumerating the
grievances of the Colonies, and the ’causes for
taking up arms against the King, was the fol
lowing: . . ,
“ lit has endeavored to prevent the population of
these Statie: far that'pnrpoee obstructing the taint
for the naturalization of foreigners; refusing to
past others to encourage their emigration, and ratt
ing the conditions of the new appropriations of
land.".
Now, we would ask the Know Nothings, and
their Whig allies if they did draw their inspira
tion from this royal source 1 Do not they reek
to “ obstruct the laws for the naturalisation of
foreigners? and toj prevent the population of
these Btatss?” We have millions of acres of
good land tying waste, while tfie overerowdod and
oppressed population? or the old world are drag
ging out a miserable:existence in poverty and
starvation. Yet th{Know Nothings’ seek to pre
vent their coming to this country to participate
in our freedom and; prosperity, and help to re
duoe our wide unoccupied domain toj cultivation;
to help build our railroads, and finals, and our
cities; and join us in fighting the battles of free
dom. Is not that just what the King of England
did ? and one of the causes for which tho noble
spirits of “ seventy*six ” declared -these States
free and independent; and in that perilous cause
staked their lives, tbeir fortunes, and their sa
cred honor? Yet the Whigs aliy themselves to
this faction, and boast,that the proteatant Irish,
and the Qennatj? are with them. It is an idle
boast. No sensible man of for- ige birth would
j oin a seoret faction whose prinoiptea would ent
their own throats. !
Judge Conrad waa elected Mayor of Philadel
phia.by the. Know Nothings. In his inaugural
address, this fancy Mayor declares that of the
eight hundred offioes in his girt, not one can be
held by a bitisen of foreign birth. Ns matter
bow long he may have been in thik country, or
‘ how good a citiien ho may have proved himself.
He is proscribed and disfranchised He may
have shed his blood in the battles of the ooontry
of his choice. He may have companded divi
sions of our army in tboss battled, and serf ed
in the councils of the nation, like pen. Shields.
Yet according to ths aonouocomsnt of Coorad
and the Know Nothings he is not fit for a police
man of Philadelphia. /
It is a notable fact, too, that Mayor Conrad
made this announcement within a few feet of
the very Bpot where the Declaration of Inde
pendence was signed ond adopted by the fathers
of the republic. Those revolutionary sires de
clared war for the very abase practiced by the
English king upon his colonies, that Conrad now
proclaims- in Bight of Independence Hall, as
the rule of his conduct as Mayor of Philadel
phia. . ’ ".

MORE ABOr* ■THE COAUTIOS.
Wc aaaounv-J s'* l ”' time »«“• on what w *
considers* reliable authority. tha,t a meeting of
leading Wing Bchemere bad met in Philadelphia
for the purpose of consummating a bargain with
the Know-Nothings. The terms of that bargain
were declared to be the withdrawal of George
Darei'e for Canal Commissioner, and the substi
tution of somo Native American in his stead—it
being Mr. D’e. misfortune (not 'his fault!) to
hare first opened his eyesAn the land of the Mae
Heaths and Msc-Gregw's. This has not Only
prosed to bo true, but we bare received some
thing further from an equally reliable source,
and of a more defioit* oharaoter.
The Whigs, after trying for several days to
Wheedle tbe Natives into a.Coalition, finally
started for their respeative homes without effect
ing their object. We have this from authority
W« cannot doubt, and we.challenge any ona.wbo
-is acquainted with tbe facts cf this case to deny
it,df he dare. Their proposition was to with
dfftw Mr. Dareie and saSstitate B. Rush Brad
ford, the Know-Nothing candidate for Governor;
but Air. Bradford thinks his chapees equally as
good** any of the Whig candidates. Conse
quently he rejected this modest proposal,, and is
counting largely upon the declination of Judge
Pollock. So, after all, the suggestion ojf tho
Journal of this city, will have to b a adopted;;
for there can tje no possible chance for either,
should they both remain i« the field.
For the Bake of Mr. be ccess
of the remainder cf tta* Whig ticket, we dnitO;
with some of our Whig ootemporaries, and oallj
upon Judge Pollock ta decline. Mr. Br- dfordf
has expressed hia determination to run stall
hazards, and if he but continues firm, the Judge
will be compelled to adopt the advice <jf our
• neighbor, or meet with ao inglorious defeat. He
Is a bitter Whig, however, and we believe -ather
than see a Democrat elected, he would h.mself
withdraw from tho contest. What will ie hia
coarse is easy to soo. We await anx.puflly
farther developments.

Ohio is the greatest corn growing State
in the Union, growing in 1850 upwards of 59,-
000,000 bushels, and it need not be wondered at
when we find such fields of mails as the follow
ing: On the west side of the Scioto, just below
Columbus, there is planted a field Bix hundred
acres of bottom. Fifteen shovel plowß and three
cultivators, worked by eighteen men and twenty
five horses, are kept in constant requisition :

Bottoms are more prolifio in that article than
any other portion of car country, frequently
yielding 75 and 80 bushels to the acre. Ken

enar ending 80th of Jane, 1850, upwards of 68.
000,000 bushels.
Deeadfcl Accident akd Loss of Life.— j
At the recent celebration of the opening of the
Ohio and Mississippi Railroad to Seymour, an
appalling accident occurred. The train from
Aurora, when nearing the Bejmour depot, was
firing salutes from a cannon, which was attached
to the last platform on the traio. A small
faraace, used to besting the rod with which the
cannon waa set off, lay close by the breech of
the gun, and the wind, it ift eupptosed, blew a
spark of this fire ioto the chest where about ft
keg or two of powder had been emptied. An
instantaneous explosion was the consequence,
and six men, who were on the car at the time,
wero blown into the air and* horribly mangled.
Recent intelligence from Aurora announce the
deaths of three of the sufferers. Their names
are R. P. Squib, John Bodlry, and Henry
Doolnn. Doolan wa9 deranged for several hoars
previoas to his death. -3

Sj’EKCH Of LORD JOBS RCSBELL OS TBS WAR.
The Sheriff hating deolaredi that Lord John
Kussetl had been dnly elected, his lordibip ad
vanced and spoke as follows :
i Gentlemen : .I'shall proceed to-tkat which is
'the absorbing question Of the present day—so
absorbing, indeed, that measures which I had
hoped to forward for increasing and promoting
tho c\til and religions rights of a large portion
of my fellow countrymen have been rather ne
glected than considered, and have been with
drawn in deferenoe to pnblio opinion rather than
opposed by Parliamentary resistance. That
great question to. wbioh I refer is the war in
which we are engaged. (Cheers.) I will not
now refer to that which has been discussed in
debates with which you are no doubt familiar.
namely, the origin of that war. The present
government endeavored as long as they could 'to
seek for terms of a pacific arrangement, and
gentlemen, I believe that in so doing we were
acting in accordance with the opinions of the
people of this country. The blessings of peace
which we had eDjoyed for nearly forty years
were not so trifling that they were to be lightly
thrown away, or precipitately abandoned.—
(Cheers.) It was not, ihorefore, until we found
that the ambition of the Emperor of Russia was
not to be satisfied with any moderate concession
! which the Sultan of Turkey was prepared to
ma k Q _that we found a determination on the
part of the Emp€rorof Russia, in opposition
to remonstrances-ta 'opposition to proposals of
every kind, to retain and keep in his power the
territory of a neighbor, that we advised the
Queen to deolare that she felt herself obliged to
take up arms in defence of her ally thus unjust
ly attacked. (Loud oheers ) j Gentlemen, in
that declaration we had the 00-operatiou and
conoert of her Majesty’s ally,;the Emperor of
the French, (renewed oheere,]) and I trust that
this concert, on a great question, will lead to a
permanent alliance* with that great people our
neighbors, who, With ourselves form the most
civilized and enlightened nations in Europe.
(Continued cheering.)' We all know by experi
ence the courage .and spirit of the French na
tion, and I only trust that both nations will dis
play in alliance those qualities which we have
hitherto displayed in ooofliot with each other.
(Cheers) Bat, gentlemen, there were others
who were as much interested as England or
Franoe In preserving the independence of Eu
rope against the aggressions of an ambitious
pta power—l mean the great States of Germany.
•l. (Cheers.) I bcHOve that j white the success of
. Russia, while her conquest of Turkey, her oocu
pation of Constantinople Iwoolfl have been dan
ire geroos to England to Franoe,* they would have
beta absolute oppression'to the people of Ger
many. (Cheers.) j _
r ev Accordingly, the people of Germany have
felt that this question esjuld hot be indifferent
0& to them, and the principal .sovereigns of Eu
rope, the emperor of Amtfria and the king of

BALLY’S ANTIDOTE AND LOTION.—Those persons who

not composed slmplv of Balsam Copaiva. but arc entirely
different from all other preparations, both in the naturo of
their Ingredleats and the manner in which they operate
upon the patient. Hence the wonderful sueoese attending

gives a permanent rigor to the vital organisation, removing
disease where it exists in any other than an organic form, i
and fortifying the system against Ha attacks, when it has

liquor, It clears instead of clouding the brain, and actually
adds permanently to the natural rigor of the nerve*, mu*

whether married or single, will find it the best remedy for
the physical disturbance* and irregularities incident to her
stractore and habits. It indubitably cures nervous trem
