of extremest peril, tho celebrated order,—
“plafie none but Americans on guard 1”
George 111, in order to crush the indomit
able spirit of freedom and retain his ill used
power over the • colonies, entered into a
kazue with foreign mercenaries to accom
plish his end. We leave into the people
of this day td say wio are the true repre

tho same spirit of national patriotism to
sustain their cause that the great and gond

The rllemoval of Mr, Welker*—
. More.Disclosurex:
Last meek wo noticed the removal of
Mr. WkitiEsr from the area' nmonnt Post
Office, Incense of his unwillingness to pros
, tituto his office to serve the purposes of
Jesuitical as indicated by the "Spy" sent '
to tamper With him. Mr. WEIKERT wan
too honest to lend himself to the conieto-/
plated outrage, nod Post-master Geoeral
(Lamm. removed him. The indigna
tion aroused throughout the county by this
outrage on the patt *of the National Ad
ministration, alarmed the" lettAers" of the
"Democracy". in this place, who Ifroroptly
wrote to Mr. CAMPBELL, alludgiug KEE-
FAIMER'S unfitness fur tho- post v and do.
wading Mr. WEIKEIIT'S ro-appointinent to
allay public indignation and "save the par
ty." Mr. CAMPBELL, with the pliant pol..
icy over characteristic of Jesuitism, at once
acceded, revoked the appointment of Kew.
FAUVER, and restored Mr. WEIKEur I So
far very well. We are gratified-that.Jes
uitisin has been forced thus to succumb to
popular indignation, but as the desperate
gawestors who aro just now playing, the
cards for the opposition, have dared to
charge the removal of Mr. WEIKERT as a
"Know Nothing trick," wo advert to it
again, and stand prepared to prove beyond
all controversy that the removal of Mr.
WEIKEttr was,. pro-concerted and deter
mined ou by the department because of his
unwillingness to prostitute his offiee to par
tizan purposes.
The flints, as we gave them last week in
regard to an - Irishman calling upon Mr.
WEIKERT, With inquiries as to the pro
gress of Know•Nothingism in the County,
his willingness to. distribute Kuow-Nothing
papers stint to his office, and the offer of
money to influence our votes-were given
to us directly by Mr. IVEIKERT, and no
ono will dare a denial.
Further, we are authorized by BENJA
MIN SCIIRIVER, Esq., late High Sheriff of
the county, whose word no man Aare im
peach, to say that a leading Catholic call
edlit hi. 4 house en the day Mr. \Veikcrt's
removal became known, and in conversa
tion upon the subject, this Catholic told
him that "he knew nothing of the matter
himself, but at Shaner's Sale in Freedom
township, during the previous week ho
over-heard two teen from Liberty town
ship, say that Mr. Weikert would be re
moved—that an Agent of the Department
had been around, and found out that he
was a Know-Nothing—and he would be
turned out, if the oiliee had to be removed
three miles from its present location.",
The name of the person furnishing this iu
formation is in our possession. Mr. Scum
vEit is willing to make oath to the truth of
this -statement, and will do so , if cal!ed iu
question.
Still further—au intelligent and respect
able citizen from Eiumittsburg, advises us
that this Iritihniatt is a mut by na too of
cf.luiltr., well-known in that' place, and
bolding race at Washington. In Bruatitts.
burg he represented himself to ho a special
Agent of the Post ()thee departieun t—said
lie had been out to Oreentnount and passed
himself off for a Know Notbing—t hat he
found Weikert to he a Know Nothing, and
he would have hint removed ! Here, then,
is the whole story.
Now the removal of Mr. WEIKEUT is a
small matter in itself. But the agency by
which it was accomplished makes it a very
grave one and worthy of serious attention.
if the removal was effected, as is alleged,
without consulting the wishes of the Dem
crutic leaders here, or the people of the lo
cality iu which the Office is placed, it only
makes the outrage worse and less defensi
ble. It shows the influence of Jesuitism
at Washington,—,what could and would be
done, if Jesuitism were pertnitted to get
the control of Government—and in that
light it becomes the imperative duty of
every honest American citizen to look at
it. "If these things aro done in the green
tree, what shall be done in the dry ?"

fervent wish that "there were an ocean of tire
between this :Lad the old world." It needs no
active' imagination to conceive what the (amu
se's of these Fathers of the Republic would
note be, could their noble spirits appear in our
midst in these latter days, when, instead office
thousand, no less than lIALF ,t MILLioN strang
ers are annually driven by poverty or misrule
to swell our population, most of them ignorant
of the institutions, the laws, and even the lan
guage of the, country, and !militated with a
spirit very different from that of American
citizens
'This immigration, thus annually poured up-
on our shores, ned speedily invested with the
elective franchise and the exercise of political
power, furnishes.what may, without notch ex
aggeration of phrase, be called the "distinct
estate" in our Itepublle. Its ever-swelling
tide is visible in every community. It is band
ed into combinations, more or less apart from
our long known and familiar masses of na
tive citizens, by ties of foreign kindred, by un
forgotten and ever cherished nationalities, and
by sympathies alien to the spirit which alone
sustains our peculiar, temperate and compli
cated system of freedom. Worse than this, it
has caught the notice and stimulated the craft
of selfish 'political aspirants and demagogues
who have too easily found it a pliant resource
for party"use, and have cajoled, flattered, and
seduced it into the ranks of partizan strife,
and thus imparted to it a consequence and
an,influenee most powerful to aid a perverse
ambition, lilt utterly powerless to accomplish
any honest end for which the highest preruga
atives of citizenship wen t designed. To cor
rect these evils, the American party demand—
a radical revision and modification of the laws
regulating: immigration and the naturalization
of foreigners--olTeringto the honest immigrant,
who, from love of liherty or hatred of oppres
sion, seeks an asylion in the United States,
a friendly reception and profection,—but un
qualifiedly condemning the transmission to
our shores of felons and pauperl. •
But the views of the American party do not
stop here. They pserve that a very large

the Church of lfotpd—professing - at least

Vienna for Varna and . Sevastopol in a day
or- two. Two of , the American surgeons
who have been in the service of Russia
have just left Sevastopol, and are in Paris.
The opinion ()fall these gentlemen is that
Sevastopol cannot be taken, and if it is,
it will require a larger force than is now

in a perfect sea of human blood.
