igp 34: OCORO 6 C Cacti/is publishes a card in
Friday's Gazette, in which he not only denies that
then is any aympathy between the Natives and whip,
but aseeru that the chief agents in the Philadelphia
Riots were malcontents it the democ:atic party. To
show bow utterly untrue is Mr C's. first assertion, it is
only necessary to point to the union between the whigs
and Natives at the late election, when the whigs aban
doned their own Candidates, and voted for those of the
Church burners. We do not suppose that Mr Col
lins-Is so much of a M'Cutcheon whig, as to say that
tisvis was not elected by mhig• votes, and that Mor
els she regular whig candidate was not invited to
decline, so that his party might have en opportunity of
voting for the Commander-in-Chief during the Ken
sington and Southwark outrages. We have the same
.evbieace of a onion in the whin and native vote in the
county, where the former again deserted their own
ticket, and supported the candidates of the natives.—
These evidences of an alliance between "all the de
cencY," and all the outlaws, are so , well known, that
St appears Mrefolly to•reentian them.
lir C'a. next •assertion is that the Chief agents were
malcontents in the democratic party. This is as des.
vitae of truth ailis tirst assertion, and we defy him to
show thatany democrats participated, encouraged or
excused the outrages that were fomented and paliated
by those who have been elected to office by the whigs.
Mr Collins says that in polities he knows no man's
religion. Such grarbe iris feelings; but there is one
thing that he must know so long as he acts with the
whigs, and that is, that in the eyes rif that party, all
persona holding the religious. opinions which be pro.
fosses to entertain, are St subjects for every species•of
persecution, and that it is perfectly honest and pious to
slander, proscribe and persecute them by every means
that nithans.and outlaws can devise.
Mr Galles selected the Gazette to publish his card ,
because it is regarded as the leading organ of the
• whig party. Yet if he will look over the columns of
• that journal during the present campaign, be will
• ind that the strongest argument it has used in favor

THE WHIGS •/IG THE N•rtecs.—The recent
union of these parties in Philadelphia affords matter
for serious reflection to that portion of the whig par
ty who are not prepared to add the odious tenets of
Nativism to the previously declared principles of the ,
whig party. We ere well:convinced 'that to a large
number of those who constitute the whig party, Na.
tivismis net repugnant—they can embrace it hes:illy
and cheer fully—bat we also know that there are non
in that party who never can bow down to the proeorip
tive and intolerant spirit of Nativism, and who never
will for a moment palliate the lawless proceedings
which have thus far marked its rise and progress.—
To such we would desire to address a few words.
In tie recent bargain and sale 'between the Natiwes
and the whigs of Philadelphia.the advantage was all on
the side of - Abe former. It is true their independence
as a party was imisreeileted, tai-they were mined in
whiter!—but they did not compromise nor give up
any of their principles. All that the whip gained by
the union, was some two or three ihoosand votes for
M , which did not elect bim—to be sure they
elected their Mayor and Council in the city, but every
one knows they could have done that without Native
aid. They have not elected a county Member to the
Senate nor House,•nor a single county' officer that we
know of—the Natives havegot allot them. Therefore
all ihat the whip have securtd, they could have Oleo
led wilibtott the help of the Natives—while they hrre
lost a Congressman, and have confessed their belief in
the paramount importance of the objects and princi
ples of the Native party, over those which they •them
selves bad heretofore advocated.
They sacrificed E. Tor Moths, a fast friend of the
Tariff. and all the other projectsend principles which
the whigs profess to•take as their platform, and elected
L. C. L/TIN, a.man pledged to nothing but to alter
and restrict mineralization laws, and devoted to noth
ing but abuse and persecution of a particular religious
denomjnation—a man who, for his violent pursuit of
this last object, is even now indicted for "arson, riot
and treason." The eleetion of this man and his fellow.
Native candidates by tremendous majorities over the
regular whig ticket, presents an important question to
all whip who do not subscribe to Nativism—and they,
we infer, are those who stuck to the regular witig. eandi
date In preference to voting, per contract, for the Na
tives. The question prOsented to such whigs, in
Philadelphia and elseisoheM, is, whether they will set
the objects and principlts of the Natives, their religi
ous persecutions, church-barnin gs and all, above the
long professed whig principles of a Bank, Distribution,
Tariff; &c. Whether they will make these latter
points subservi en t andsubordinate to N ati vism--.wheth
er they would rather that L. C. Lavin and men like
him, should go to Cengrees and trade off, if he can, the
Tariff, Bank, and all, to buy support for his persecuting
heresies—or that honorable men like E. JOT Monsts,
should go to Congress, as a saktig, to maintain the
original cardinal principles of their patty.
We would ask honest whip to reflect on these
things, before they decide on their future course of pa
litical action.
' We would also call their attention to the fact, that
+while the whigs sacri Aced all their former principles in
sustaining Native candidates, the Natives did not
placeone of theirs in d • tiger. They have secured two
Congressmen—eight members of the Honae, and 1
Senator—by all of which they can operate on the law
eking power—while the whigs have obtained nothing
by Stair 'bargain which will in any way advance their
principles, butlave , lost , force in the Legislature and
Congress. We again request the attention of honest
whip to the whole subject—they will -see how they
have been abused, and cheated, and sold to the Na
rives by this internees bargain.
ARKANSAS ELECTION.
We have received returns but from a few counties
in Arkansas, but snob as have come to hand, show a
large increase of the democratic vote compared with
that of 1840. It is probable that Gibson, the whip
candidate for Governor, is elected, in consequence of
two democratic candidates running for that office, but
there can be no doubt of thedemocrats having a large
majority of the popularwote.

Dear Hrrry; What the d--143 you mean by pub
licly disowning reel Your letter , has turned all my
cakes to dough, mad spoiled the most beautiful scheme
that ever was invented. I was "doing" the abolition
ists finely, and bad almost persuaded some of them
thatyou were the true representative of the "liberty
party," when your confounded letter was published in
the newspapers. Nay, whilst I was at a public mee•
ting in the act of provingyou an aboiitionist"ie pries
circle," I was met with the declaration, under your own
sign manual, that I had entirely "misconceived your
views." I have not deserved such treatment at your
bands. When, at the shades of Ashland, in despair
ing.accents, you exclaimed, "Help me, Cassius, or I
siuk!"—although the attempt was almost hopeless, I
plunged into the stormy ocean of politics, buffeting the
ay ayes of Unpopularity. I little thought that this un
kindest cut ufall" would ever come from him I sought
to rave. If you had by a judicious use of the ambigui
ties of language, gently insinuated that, in some re
spects, I "misapprehended your opinions," the mean
ing of your letter would have been susceptible of such
an explanation here as would satisfied our nothern
friends; while at the South a vet) , different commenta
ry might have been made from the same text. But
your unfortunate letter is a perfect stamper. It can't be
made to read more than one way; and whenever I speak,
I am told you have denounced me as an impostor--
The whip detrust me.; the Abolitionists despise me;
and the.Locofocos laugh at me. la short, my position
has sunk to a level with your prospects; my schemes
have failed; my hopes have died away; my plots have
been disconcerted ; and in a few days (should I survive
the ridicule which everywhere attends my progress,) I
shall return to Kentucky a wiser if not a better maa, ex
hibiting to the world a melancholy instance or disap
pointed hopes, mortified vanity, and unsuccessful am
bition. C.A.St3H/S.
No. 2.-.-HINRY TO CASSIUS
Dear Cassius.—"Doaa your anxious mother know
you'ro out?" I feel myself compelled to ask you thii
importantquestien, en account of the estreme verdan
cy displayed in your last communication. Cin it be
possible that you, my friend and pupil in the noble
science of electioneering, could for a moment have
"misconceived my views" in 'writing the lettivref which
you so bitterly complaint Are you not sufficiently
"up to snuff" to know, that "ciroumstancesalter aims,"
and that the letters of public men, must always be
shaped to meet the exigencies of rho time.? When
you went as a missionary to the north for the purpose
of winning the support of the "Liberty men" to our
ticket, I entertained strong hopes that the objects of
your mission would have been accomplished wihout in
juringshe cause at home. But to use your own ex
pressive plume?, "all our cakes haie turned to dough,"
and the extreme ardor with which you wooed the Lb--
olitionists lost me tenvetes it the south tfoirevery one
it gained at the north. You willtherefore see, that I
was placed in a 'peculiarly perplexing predicament."
Between the two stools of slavery and abolition I
was every moment in danger of falling to the ground;
and the rascally Looofocos looked on with a malicious
' grin up* thejr countenances. rejoicing et my distvelme.'
es, and laughing at mptniserieti- What, thee, could
I dot I felt that "self-preservation is the list law of
nature," and I therefore cut you publicly, in order to
prevent my southern friends from cutting me. But be
it understood between as, that though IT Jibe., publicly
disowned you, 4n private I entertain towards you the
stmogest feeling of gratitude and admiration. In
fact, my dear Cassius, though I don't feel disposed at
present to brag upon our relationship, I consider you
a perfect trump. and if you will only play your cards
a little more discreetly, we shall hold the snowing Amid,
and you will receive from me, as a reward of your de
voted service, a mission more pleasing and profitable
than any which you have hitherto undertaken.
P. S.—Our prospects are becoming gloomy. The
"Star of the East" has beenvarribly obscured. Though
I have tried to.seem "all things to all men," I fear I
shall be nothing to nobody. Cassius, console yourself
in affliction by the reflection that you have become a
martyr to the cause of friendship, and remem bet , hen
ever you see any of our friends a little down at the
mouth. to "congratulate them u? on the result of the
August and September elections.
RZAItONs rn EVICTING CLAT.—The whig editor
of the Rodney Gazette uses the following arguments in
favor of the election of Henry Clsy :
"Henry Clay is a man of commanding talents, who
has great influence with his party.
Therefore, if Me Clay is elected, Texas will is all
probability be annexed !
James IC Polk is a weak man who will be easily
managed by his party or by cliques in his party.
Therefore. if Mr Polk is elected, in all human pro.
bability, Texas will not be annexed to the United
States."
DEMOCRATIC MEETING.
According to previous notice, the Democrats of the
3d Ward, assembled in great numbers, at Palk Hall;
which was soon filled to overflowing, with the sturdy
yeomanry of the Ward.
The meeting was called to order by the President;
the Secretary not being present, J. Wynne was ap
pointed Secretary pro fen.
After several excellent Democratic songs had been
sung by the Glee Club, A W Foster, Esq., of Mercer
county, being present, was called on for a speech.—
Who, when became forward, was greeted with cheers
and plaudits. The] talented gentleman commenced
his speech by saying, that four years ago, he was oil
the other side of the fence: but that he had discovered
his error, that the veil of political bigotry had fallen
from bis•eyes; and that he wee now enabled to view
Democracy in her beautiful proportions; and that he
saw plainly, she was the only guide under which our
government could buffet suoeesafully the storms of
adversity. And if we were to judge, from she ge .0001
election, we would say that be was net alone in Mer
cer creamy.
Andrew entice, Esq , Aar being repeatedly called
for, mounted the stand, and delivered, a most eloquent
l and able speech, in which he served up, in fine style,
the merits and claim of the whispery, and dreamt
!embodiment. The name of the young Acetixes of
Democracy, S W Black, Esq, was; then announced
and was greeted with three deafening cheers.
As soon as the cheering had subsided, Mr Black
commenced a speech, richly stocked with wit and po
' litical sagacity. He dealt his blows long and heavy
upon the beads of the whigs and Natives.
The meeting then adjourned with three cheers for
Folk and Dallas, to meet on neat Tuesday evening,
at the same place, where and when all Democrats are
invited to attend.
