MAHAFFEY "TOOK DOWN."
The following disclosure, knocks Mahaflcy
exposition of "Know Xothingism" into
'cock't hat.' The "Sag-Mchts," or "Say Noth
ing" is a society recently instituted, to regu
late the large and rapidly increasing foreign
vote of the Country, and these disclosures are
owing lo the drunken blunder of a clerk from
Washington City, who was sent out to Ohio
for the purpose of organizing "Sag-Nicht'
ioages- Alter reading the disclosure, says
the Pittsburg Dispatch, we think the "Say
Nothings" should add an obligation on their
members to "Drink Nothing.-'
-r 1 1 a t t-
it seems, accorumg to tne cueyrus Jovrua
of the 1st inst., that one G. W. Johns, "an of
ficial of General Pierce," and two democrats,
Hall and Jackson, started for Richmond by
Rail, to form a Sach X icht Society, and reach
cd that place, Feb. lb". The faithful met them
and crot into a regular spree, ;Drunk came,'
and brought in the Marshal, who nabhed G.
W. Johns whilj the others, being swift of
foot, managed to escape. Thereupon this
worthv "wrote as follows to the editor of the
Crawford county Journal."
Massfiklr-Fkb. 1G. 1355. Dear Sir: Hero
I am "tight" as thunder, and a good deal tight
er than any oi us were when the Marshal un
dertook to nab the whole gang for setting
struck with 'Jersey Lightning.' Fortunately
for you fellows vou were a little more nimble
than I was, and understood the private allevs
with which I, a stranger, was unacquainted.
But I do not think yon a.Td Hall and Jackson
displayed the right kind of disposition to jump
nd run. Icavinx me alone, to drop into the
hands of an officer without having any intima
on given of the proximity of the police.
The success of the administration and the
certainty of getting our rew ard, depends upon
our kcenins united. But the idea of forming
a Sach Xicht association is all kuockedin the
head for the present, (confound that Muscat o
Shack's.) Gen. Pierce will think I am a dev
ilish oneer clerk, and am "doing up" his bu
sinews in beautiiui style :y getting into such a
confounded scrape. Really, I cannot help but
blame vou fellows, but no matter now. Ihe
Mansfield Guards ore all right, the Postmaster
tells me. As soon as I get clear of this arrest,
I w ill let vou know, and Hall and Jacksou can
come over and assist me in organizing.
In haste, 1 our3, G. u . Johns.
Here was a fix! but G. W. Johns isagenius.
He got bail, agreed to appear before the May
or, cuangea his mma ana "cut stioK. - ms
nest letter, therefore, was dated at
snLAND, Feb. 17, 1855. Here I run, clear
and elean, and having the letter which I wrote
at Mansfield still in my pocket, I will contin
ue an explanatoiy note in connection and re
mit to you. You don't catch me in Mansfield
airain. The mavor, not having time to go into
:in examination, bound me over to appear, at
the next (this) morning for examination. I
got some friends (?) to enter bail forme, and
afterwards lound out that they are putting the
teniperauee law in force without any distinc
tion as to the stunting or connection of the per
sons arresled. Seeing no chance for myself if
I came to trial, 1 "cut stick" and left the bail
n for it.
I would have had some compunction about
doing that if they had treated me right, but I
lad hard work to coax my friends to bail me,
and even then I Lad to promise that I would
sav a "rrooa word' lor tliem to tne iresiuent
in ease there should happen any mail agencies
orany other government offices to be tilled.
With the certificates that I h id in my posses
sion from Pierce and oilier leading men of
Washington and of this State, and of which
they had full knowledge, I think it was their
duty to step forward promptly and assist me;
but when I found how backward and shy they
wcre, I determined that if I got them into it, I
would let them t-tick, and I did and am not in
the lea-t sorry fur it . They can recover the
loss the best way they can.
I will try to get to your place soon and form
an organization. Your county has great rep
utation with the powers that be at Washing
ton, and of course your name, as w ell as the
names of some other leaders of yuur county,
stand high on the list of the President's favor.
If v.c can puih the Sag Xicht association
through, and keep strong enough to carry the
next Presidential election, you may all expect
to obtain a reward fully equivalent to the ma
jority your county will give; you know the terms
1,000 majority will entitle your head man to a
chargeship, with other ofticcs for other leaders.
The post-oflices of course you can get anyhow.
Our name takes well with the Dutch, but it
does not go dow n well with the Irish. But tho
Irish have 110 he'n for themselves. The Know
Nothings- are down on the Catholics, and that
fixes them. If I am rightly informed, the Ger
ma!is are t'ror.g in OrawrorU, ana mere are
but few Irish to conciliate, so that 1 see no
difficulty in your keeping everything right. I
will give yon due notice when to expeet me.
Yours fraternally, G W. J.
Bv oversisht these rich letters were sent to
the ''Bucyrus Jonrnal" instead of the "Ciaw
ford Ctmniu Journal." The editor cf the for
mer did not exactly understand them, having
neither sympathy with sack or Sag Night, but
concluded something n'-ft was "leaking out,"
and so published them ! But the day after,
a note, a precious note, was received hy him,
the close of winch is as follow s :
AsiiLASi), Feb. 18, 155. Ed. Eucyru Jour
nal, bn It is only necessary to say that it
(the letter) was misdirected, and will in all
probability fall into your bands. A9 the con
tents are strictly of a privalc nature, I trust
that if you get this before you receive that,
that you will return it to my address at this
place without opening it.
If, perchance, it should have reached you
and you should have opened it, I wiiLbe under
lasting obligations to yon if you will reenclose
and return it to me, for which service I will
remit you ton d,ollars as soon as I get it.
Fours trulv.
G. J. Johxs.
The editor of the Bucyrus Journal determin
ed to probe this matter, and ascertain who this
G. W. Johns was, and what was his business.
So he visited MansScIdand Ash! md, and ascer
tained that he was at the present time a clerk
in the employ of the Administration at Wash
ington, but engaged just now in the business
of organizing Sag Nichl Societies in Ohio! -
The New State of 'Colcmiia." A; bill
has been reported in the California Legislature
to divido that State, by creating a new one, to
be called the "State of Columbia," and to em
brace all that part of tho State south, and in
clusive of the counties of Santa Crnz, Santa
Clara, Tuelumene and Calaveras. A portionof
the present State debt is to be assumed by the
new State on an equitable basis. ' Its introduc
tion gave rise to a warm debate. One of the
speakers advocated the creation of three or
four new States, in order that the Pacific
might have a greater influence in Congress-"
A motion was made to indefinitely postpone
the whole matter, but at last accounts no vote
had been taken. ,

CALLING FOR THE PSOOF.
The Roman Catholic Bishop of Louisville,
Kentucky, recently published a pamphlet bear
ing the title of "The Intolerant spirit of the
Times," in which he attempts to distort and
falsify the oft quoted remark of Lafayette,
that "lfever the 'liberties of this country are
destroyed, it will be "by Romish Priests."-
In view of this high-handed attempt to falsify
tne wora ot a distinguished American citizen
and philosopher Professor Morse three
Protestant clergymen of Louisville have pub
lished a card in which they demand of the
Romish Bishop, Shalding, either to autheuti
cate and confirm his statement, orretract it as
a forgery. The Presbyterian Herald also de
nounces this daring forgery in proper terms,
and gives the following extract from a letter
from Prof. Morse, in regard to the saving of
Lafayette:
"It may not be amiss to state that the dec
laration of Lafayette, in the matter in question,
was repeated by him to more than one Ameri
can. The very last interview which I bad
with Lafayette, on the morning of our depar
ture from Paris, full of his usual concern lor
America, he made the same warning; and in a
letter which I received from him a few days
after at Havre, he alluded to the whole subject,
with the hope expressed that I would make
known the real state of tilings in Europe f o my
countrymen; at the same time charging it up
on me as a sacred duty, as an American, to
acquaint them with the fears which were en
tertained by the friends of republican liberty
in regard to our country.- If I have labored
with anv suecess to arouse fho attention of my
countrymen to the danger foreseen by Lafay
ette, 1 owe it in a great decree to having acted
in conformity to his often repeated injunc
tions. SAMUEL F. B. MORSE. -New
York University, Oct. lb-.
"With an intelligent christian, American
public, the assertions of such a man as Prof.
Morse w ill certainly be believed in preference
to the unauthenticated declarations of a doubh;
faced foreign jesuit, who acts upon the prin
ciple that "the end justifies the means." Tel
erravh. Tiik Know Xothi.vc Rkvolctiox. In the
numerous liule town elections which, within a
few days past have come off in all parts of the
country, we see that the organization of parties
is rapidlv narrowing down to a struggle be
tween all the remnants or fag ends of the old
parties and factions -of the day on the one side
and the Know Nothings on the other. Anotli
cr remarkable feature of these local electons
is this, that in three-fourths of them the new
American party have been victorious. Among
these victories they iiave carried the village of
Auburn the head -quarters oLIW. II. Seward
asinst all his availatleforees, and the Van
Burem barnburnmg U'qfVf oilers combined. In
ie houtli these mysterious Know iSotmgs
have achieved a triumph quite as remarkable.
They have carried tne city of Alexandria. Ya.,
ly a large nnjority,Vn the heels of the most
elaborate and learned of all the stump speeches
of Mr. "Wise against this terriblejsecret part'.
Thus the work goe on. The jvtiow Nothings
have now to contend against old fogv whig
and Seward v.higs, hunker democrats, Buffalo
democrats, natives, Irish and Germans, Protes-
t mts and Catholics, abolitionism, secessionism,
the administration, the spoils, Henry A. Wise,
Capt. Ryndcrs, all the Van Iinrcns all the old
fogies, Forney and the Kitchen Cabinct,and yet
the Know Nothings are not only holding their
own, but marching steadily ahead. Thus tht?

and the Richmond Enquirer upon the imiebt
edness of politicians to the press, make his
own remorseful confession as follows:
"It is not unfrequeiit that the friendship ot
n editor is the political stoek in trade upon
which ho draws for every step he takes in the
wavoffaiue. Witness for instance,
the tremendous man the press made of fir.
Pierce during the campaign of Ais election.
We confess that we look back With shame up
on the pai t we bore in that business dui ing ,tbe
four months of that canvass. We wrote'' lor a
campaign paper which circulated more than
xty thousand copies a weet, that would
make a book of not les than three hundred
folio pages, all proving mot cliaily, that he
wasiu intellect, genius of principles and firm
ness of character, a second Jackson. Our head
almost aches now when we remember the wea
ry days and nights ol editorial labor in which
we followed bun through the battle smoke,
ove r the plains ot .Mexico, and erected him in
to a tremendous and most frightfully brave
general, who never did faint from fear under
the blaze and whiz of tiic salt-petrc and bul
lets of the enemy. And now to see that bul
rush thing he has turned out to be, bows our
own spirit with shame and regret."
TlIEY IIAVE THE Vi'lLL SHALL TlltV IIAVE TEE
Power? Read the following from the Balti
more Clipper: "The Catholic clergy in the TJ.
States profess to be tolerant simply because
they have not the power to be otherwise. They
live iu a Protestant community, and they are
compelled to be be cautious. Rut they cannot
restrain themselves within the bounds of pru
dence. They attack our public schools, and
insist upon banishing our Bible. They fear
the spread of information, and would, there
fore, destroy the source of information. Give
them the power, anel our country will soon be
reduced to the degraded condition of every
Roman Catholic nation, without a single ex
ception. We would not trust any with power
who would consider his duty to his country in
ferior to that which he owed to aforeign prince
or potentate. The history of tho Popes of
Rome is a history of fraud, violence, perjurv,
cunning and userpation. Did they claim spir
itual jurisdiction only, it would be compara
tively Harmless; but they nave grasped tempo
ral authority wherever it was to be had,
though the spread of intelligence, even in It
aly, will soon divest his Holiness of all pow
er, save that of the Head Bishop of the Ro
man Catholic Church."
The democratic party is still alive. Genius.
So is an eel after it is skined and its head
cut oil'! Still there is no hope of its final re
covery. Brcxouacillc Clipper.
