Wblgo, be upon your guard! ICPOur intercourse, (hiring the past !week, with prominent Whip from differ. eat parts of the County—among them some of our most substantial Catholics— has confirmed beyond all doubt our con victions that the Locofoco leaders in this county bac, determined to carry their ends this fall, if bold and desperate deter mination can do so. From 1;11 quarters we hear of persevering tampering with the Catholic and Foreign vote, by repro ! Renting prominent Wings to be at the head of the Know Nothing movement, and promising, the vote of the Democratic par ty to disaffected Whip as an inducement to take the field as independent candidates— and that, too by men who have been secret-1 I ly bidding for the Know Nothing veto by I promising to see to it that none but “aceept ble" persens are tak‘m up as the party candidates ! There are men engaged in this scheme of fraud and duplicity, of whom we might have expected better things. But there are some people, who takes it for granted that "all is fair in politics," and subscribe implicitly to that other e qually infamous dogma, that "the end justifies the means." Upon no other prin. ciple can we account for the'wicked calutn niation of the great and gifted CLAY, by men high in social position, which render ed the campaign of 1844 so painfully mem orable. The, same men .who . lied down HENRY CLAY, in 1844, by proclaiming him a "Gambler," "Black-leg," "Debau dee," "Duelist," end "Murderer," and afterwards impudently abed their crocodile tears over the - great patriot's grave-i—are now at work, defaming honest.

ICrThe Locofoco editora Still insist up. on the charge that PoLLoox is a .'Know Nothing," notwithstanding that it has been denied over and'over again, and the proof called for. The only answer to this challenge is the simple assertion of a profligate and irresponsible partizan press in Philadelphia—the Pennsytvaniar-c Besides, the Pensylvanian's story has been pronounced false from another quarter.— The story runs, that Judge Pollock was conducted into the Know Nothing lodge by Mayor Conrad and Sheriff Allen. The latter gentlemen denies this statement most emphaticalry over his own signature. That being false, is it not fair to infer that the whole is 8 gross deception, got up to "gammon the fists 1" lic:rThe expositions of "Kdow•Noth ingism" are becoming •aplenty as black berries," and surely we must het the truth by and by. The Philadelphia Pennsylva nian led off, followed by the Richmond En quirer. But the aim of these journals be ,ing to subserve'Locofocoistri, their •areve• lotions" do not meet with popular conti donee. The latest that has come under our observation is one furnished by the Lebanon Courier, which professes to have got possession of the secrets of a lodge re cently established in Lebanon. The Cour ier, having published the pass-word, signs, and grip, gives a portion of the , obligation or oath in the third degree which is as fol lows : • "I—II hereby solemnly swear II my oath to endure forever and a day after II that if I catch a Roman Catholic II alone in the woods H or some other Jut-of-the-way place that I will pound him into a jelly II or chop him into sausages II which jelly or sausages )lI will eat without salt or pop per oan in this way endeavor to annihi late li the wholu tribe of rapscallions II so help me Peter." After taking this oath, the obligated person turns three sum mersets, backwards and forwards, which he must do without krunting, under the penalty of a summary ejection from the lodge room. Each mem ber then arrays himself in a blood red shirt and pants, and paints his face a vermillion. when 4 horrible and terrifying dance to propitiate the spirit of all departed Know Nothings, takes place. The Courier promisee a continuation of these startling expositions in its next is. 0: 'Senator Cooper, of Pa., is not seri• ouslp•ill at Poitaville, as deported:, His disease, rheumatism, is more psdafal than 1111/10IIS.

Our Locofoco exchanges generally unite in an apparent bitter war -1 faro against the now Order, while the nom inations made by their County Convections leave no room for doubt that they are se cretly plotting for its vote. Governor Bunn has been charged with having made application for admission into their ranks, and has never dared to deny it.— Mr. Mott, their candidate for Canal Com missioner, is understood to be a genuine, live Kuow-Nothing, and yet every Loco foco paper in the State supports his eke tion. In Cumberland county, it is said, a large portion, if not the entire County Ticket is made 'up of Know-Nothings, while. in. York County they have a fair sprinkling of them on the ticket. And yet the Locofoco papera in both these coun ties, with unblushing effrontery and hy pocrisy, denounce Know-Nothingism as a Whig movement, and ask that the Catho lie and Foreign vote be thrown against Whig candidates. The York Republican exposes this double-dealing in a justly se vere article which winds up as follows : "The practice of: Locofecoism in this county, in putting notorious Know No. things on their ticket, is u full answer to' all its long winded denunciations of that order; and so long as the "Gazette" and "Press" keep that ticket at the head of their columns, and advocate the election of the candidates upon it, they ought for very shame to exclude from thbm the fierce denunciations of the order and its purposes with which" they have for the last, few, weeks been burdened. Their object haa been of course to direct every,-Foreign autk, Catholic vote from the support of Judge POLLOCK. and they may. as in the case of 1 HENRY CLAY in 1844, have succeeded; but if prejudice have not totally usurped the seat of .reason, Foreigners Mid Cathol ics must despise the .arrant hypocrisy which, denouncing KnOw.NOthinguim and Judge Pou,ooK as 'connected with ;.it, nominates full-bloOded Know-Nothings on its own Looofoco tickets, and supporta their election without a wry face or the slight est intimation of their disapprobation of their candidates' connection. with -the or , der. Such is the hollowness of Looofoco professions.l" THE NEBRASKA TEST.—SoMe of the Administration presses is other States seek to produCe the impression that the Nebraska bill is not sleet messure in the ranks of the Democracy,' but ono about which they may. differ without dividing their forces.

It says „ The Nebraska bill is a Test of Demo cratic Orthodoxy: The majority have, spoken, and in this country the majority must be obeyed, It is not necessary that an administration Should say what is or what is not a test of iiiith; but the will of the majority of the Democratic party is no less potential hillnalting a principle a test, than in constituting that principle an arti- cle of the Democratic creed.” Bossm and PULSKY are residing in London with'their families.

The cap ture of the Arland Islands by the Baltic fleet, and their occupation by the French expeditionary force appears to be confirm ed. The capture of these Islands, if it has been accomplished, will have included thereduct ion of the fortress of Bomersuud, and constitute by far the most remarkable achievement of the allies in the present war. A large Russian force was known to be at Bomersund, and it is presumed must have been taken prisoners by tho allies.— The naval force which previous accounts stated to be designed to operate in the at tack on Bomersuod, consisted of some thir ty ships in all, carrying 80,000 men with a land army of about 15,000 under Gen. Baraguay d'Hilliers. The invasion of the Crimea seems to be a settled point in the opertitiona of the al lies upon the Black Sea. The London Times congratulates itself upon being in a condition to present to the public some thing more than speculations and surmi ses on the movements of the allied armies in the East. It proceeds to announce that "a force made up English, French and Turks, and amounting to between 80,000 and 100,000 men will Invade the Crimea, and attempt to effect a lodgment on the heights commanding the harbor of Sebas topol.'" Public expeetatiori both here and in England will be keenly aroused to learn the result of this attempt.

Catholicism and Civil LtbertY. geLThe New York Triimne is out a gainst the Know Nothings, although the writer thinks the inaolence and arrogance of a portion of the foreign population, and the imprudence of foreign Catholic clergy, have furnished plausible grounds for the new movement. The Tribune, however, is against proscription, and enters into a bold defence of Catholics against the gen erally accredited charge of the hostility of their faith to civil Liberty. Among other things the Tribune says : “Truth compels us to add that the . oldest Republic now existing is that of San Mari no, riot only Catholic but wholly surround. od by the especial dominion of the Popes, who might have crushed it like an egg shell at any time those last thousand years —but they didn't. The only Republic we ever travelled in beside our 'own is 'Switzerland, half of its cantons or States entirely Catholic, yet never that we have heard of unfaithful to the cause of Free dom. They wore nearly all Roman Cath olics, from the southern cantons of Swit zerland, whom Austria so ruthlessly ex pelled from Lombardy after the suppres. sion of the last revolt in Milan, account ing them natural born Republicans and Revolutionists ; and we suppose Austria is not a Know Nothing on this We never heard the Catholics 'of Hunga ry accused of backwardness in the late glorious struggle of their country for free dom, though its leaders were Protestants, fighting against a leading Catholic Power avowedly in favor of Religious as well, as Civil Liberty. And Chivalric, unhappy Poland, almost wholly Catholic, has made as gallant struggles for freedom as any other nation, while of the three despotisms that crushed her but one was Catholic. But enough. We do not hope to stop the crusade of intolerance and violence now setting against the Catholics, calling for their disfranchisement, and threaten ing their temporary exclusion from all public trusts. Epidemics of this sort must have their course ; and this one has some truth and a large amount of honest bigotry on which to base its operations. Quito a number, whose religion till now never did them Much good or harm, will ride into of fice on tho back of their resonant Protest an tient, and that will bo theend of the mat ter. The naturalization laws will remain essentially as they are ; and Know Noth ingism will give place to some now fashion in politics, perhaps equally factitious, af ter a few changes of the moon. We only desire to be classed, now and evermore, a mong those who are in &vor of the infu sion into our current politics of the largest possible measure of practical religion, and therefore averse to intermingling there with the least trace of polemical theol ogy.” lIICPThey are building a bridge for. the Leiington and Danville road, across the KentAA river, pointing south, the most magnjOcent on earth, one span of it from oliff to cliff, 1200 feet long. rThe Grand Jury of the United Statea Court for the district of North Car olina, have presented the State of Massa chusetto as a nuisance, for want of alacri ty in Slave catching.

Cannelton for selling jlquor to a Drunkard. In Philadelphia last week, a tavern keeper named Peter Plum, was arraigned on four eharges--of keeping a disorderly house, a tipling house, aching liquors to minors, and selling liquors to a drunkard. The facts disclosed by the testimony of the,drunkard's wife, Mrs. Mary Ilonolier. were as follows : - Her husband for a long time, had been in the habit of going to the defendant's tavern and getting drunk. She had traced him to this place, and bad remonstrated with the defendant for selling her husband liquor. The defendant would deny the charge, and say that he sold no liquor. Finding that her husband would still come home drunk and as defendant had frequently said that he eel() no liquor, she determined to watch her husband, and find out what he drank to make him drunk.— One day he came home very drunk, and lay down to take a sleep. When ho awoke somewhat sobereddie arose and stinted for' the defendant's place, followed unseen by I his wife. As he entered the door she heard him say to the defendant, "Plum, some schnapps," and then walked out into a shed back of the bar-room. She ran a round to the back door, and saw the de- fendant bring out a bottle of brandy and I set it on a table before her husband. As, he was about pouring some of the liquor) out, she - eprang suddenly in upon them, and seized the bottle, saying now, "now 1 will :take this to an Alderman's office, and see whether it is not liquor." She started off to Alderman Clark's with the bottle, slid it was there found to be brandy. The Judge is aen tencifig him. said—that whenever a conviction took place before him, and it appeared thit a tavern keeper sold liquor to a minor, or,a drunken man, he would give the full extent of the law. He then sentenced the deft.' to illy a fine of $5O ind-costs. and undergo an impris. onment of 60 days,and also under the same. law to pay the prosecutor $lO fur bringing him to justice. - ' ' KANSAS AND NEBRASKA—These territories, but recently organized, arc al ready in the process of rapid settlement.— The principle stream of emigration is from .

On the con tinent the crops are extensive, and the markets are not only dull, but fast de clining. A circular from Rostook calcu lates on a large yield, at least one-fourth above the usual everage of the wheat crop, 'and a more than full average of other coin. There are the same prospects in the Bal tic districts, and Sweden, and Denmark. In Prussia there are excellent prospects of a great yield, and at Smyrna the grain is unusually plentiful. In Egypt the pri ces have greatly fallen, and at Alexandria the corn is most abundant. In the Prin cipalities the crop is being cut by the Rus sians, but in Bulgaria the harvest has been most abundant on the whole. Potatoes promise to be abundant. In spite of war there seems to be an abundance of the el ements which give impulse to industry and make manufactures flourish. NIP AND TOCC—The Niagara Falls Iris says that a slave escaping from servi tude arrived in that village on Tuesday evening and reached the ferry just in time to get into the little boat as it was prepa- ring to leave for the Canada side.

The slave was last seen at Cleveland:; yet while both were in the same train, the fugitive suc ceeded in eluding his vigilance, and pla cing himself beyond pursuit.
