In 18.50 the vote stood ; Fremont, 108,000 ; Pillmore, 2.0,000 ; Buchanan, 29,- 000. With this material, how was it possi ble for the Democrats and Americans to carry the amendment in opposition to the wishes of the Republicans 1 Will these who maks the charge demonstrate how a minority can con. trol an election? The discovery would make the fortune of its author, The responsibility of adopting this pro.. scriptire amendment rests with the Rapubli oans and Americans. It is- too litre now for the former party to deny its agency in the matter. Power and responsibility are in separable. The Democracy of 3lassachnsetts are the aunties of proscription, and they op posed this amendment by their represent*. tires, by their presses, and by their votes.... Rad it been defeated, the Republicans of the West would doubtless have exclaimed to their German followers, " behold how the Repub. licans of Massachusetts hate proscription ?" But as it was adopted by Republican votes, we can truthfully exclaim, " behold how Re publican Massachusetts lyres proscription 7" —Patriot and Maim. BerTbe Black Republican party is nothing but the Know Nothing organization under a new name. The leaders of the Know Nothing party during its brief career, are now the most prominent Black Republican leaders, and if suocessful they would at once revive and endeavor to carry out in the elministra tion of the government the bigoted and anti republican doctrines of the midnight fraterni ty. Henceforth it will be only necessary to refer to Massachusetts in order to prove that Know Nothingism and Black Republicanism travel hand in hand. So says the Ebensburg Democrat, with entire truth. An Example Worthy of Imitation. The Quips' •Heraid says that tipera, an Republicans of Massachusetts have . WIN an address to the people of the United States, commenting upon the recent action of the Black Republican Legislature of that State, which put an amendment into the Constitu tion, depriving them of the right to vote, un til they have been there seven years, 112 which they say:— " Tie, citizens of German descent, will have nothing more to do with the Republican party —we will never more lead our kelp to elevate a party to power 'clack tramples us under foot." That's the way to talk it. The Black Re publicans have attempted to crush out the Germans in Massachusetts, and they will at tempt the same thing here if you give them the power. The Germane of Massachusetts have sated wisely in leaving them, and the German voters of this State should profit by their example. Hard to Please The Black Republicans of the North are continually prating about the pro-slavery tendencies of President Buchanan's Admin istration, and accusing him/f adhering to the peculiar ia teresta of the South. The "Oppo sition" in Virginia, (we are at a-loss for a namo by which to designate them,) on the o ther hand charge him with being false to the Southern Stater, and the Richmond 1 7 flig as serts emphatically " that all Democratic Presidents have been iraifora fo il, e South."— There is a wide difference of opinion here, and it would be a difficult matter to please men who see things in such contrasting lights. lerThe Chatuberaburg Valley Spirit con tains a lengthy article in reference to Vice President Breckinridge, which concludes as follows : " In Pennsylvania the question of the Pres idency has been very little discussed, and no one can undertake to declare what may be the preference of the great body of the Democra cy. But this we thing it would be safe to say —that leaving out one or two eminent Penn sylvanians. there is no man in the Union whose nomination by ti*Charleston Conven tion would be more warmly responded to by the Democracy of the old Keystone. than that of John C. Breekinridge, of Kentucky." ifirTbe Know nothing County Committee met somewhere in this borough on Tuesday last. Jecort Bass's, Esq., of East Berlin, was appointed Delegate to their Bth of June State Convention ; and the first day of Au gust was fixed upon for the holding of their County Convention. That the leaders of the Opposition in this county are already plollisg with a view to the fall election, there is, we think, no room for douht. We caution oar Democratic friends in all the distritta, therefore, to keep a chase watch on Opposition movements. All that is necessary is to detect and expOse the trieketent in time.

'fhe coarse abuse heaped upon the President by that reckless and shameless sheet,has made it a grelt favorite with the Black Republi cans. For fear, however, that they may overlook the following paragraph in Monday's Prefs, we puldish it, and ask their attention to it. It shows up the consistency of our unprincipled adversaries in a few words "As C3hibiting the injustice of mere par tisanship, whatclin be more disreputable than the refusal of the Opposition papers in free States to denounce the course of their politi cal friends in Kentucky and Virginia, who take the eatroma ground of the firo,eisters of the South on the subject of slavery in the Territories ?" A Dead Failure. An attempt to build up a new Democratic party under the dignified title of the*" States Rights Demoeraey," with Forney as leader, has proven the most dismal political failure of the times. It weuld really be a work of charity for some respectable Democratic pa per to bestow a word of encouragement upon the ragged+ bald, and crippled thing. The And-Leoompton press of the State refuse to acknowledge it, and instead of giving the4w conragcunent and support rebirth were antici pated by the projectors of the movement, are unsparing in their blows. Of this class of Democratic newspapers, the Somerset Demo crat is among the most able and vigorous.— In commenting with deserved severity upon the proceedings at Altoona, it administers the following advice to this faction: " We understand that it is the intention of this State Rights Democratic party, when the proper time arrives, to make an energetic effort to secure a majority of delegates to the nest 4th of March Convention. To this we have no otjection. But we tell them now, is advance, that unless they roll up their sleeves and go zealously to work fur the success of the regularly nominated Democratic State ticket at the nest election, they will find themselves nowhere when these delegates come to be chosen. No disorganizing move ment can carry the Anti-Le.tompton senti ment of the State with it, and the sooner the leaders of this Democratic State Rights rec• tion are made aware of this fact perhaps the better. There is a vast difference between a genuine Anti-Lecompton Democrat, and a bogus one who makes it his business to en deavor to defeat the regular party organiza tion, and who gives ' aid and comfort' to the oammon enemy. ' MirWe say, with the Po!walker, that the Democratic party cannot be defeated in 1800. Let the Charkaton National Convention name the candidate, and the watch fires will he im mediately kindled from one end of the Union to the other. and the'Democratic legions will push on the column to victory. Onr mongrel opponents may crow note, if they will ; after the Presidential race has taken place will be the time fur Democrats to make the welkin ring with their loud huzzas. So mote it be. Dark Deeds Brought to Lightf If all the infamous crimes and outrages which have been committed by Know Noth ings in the city of Baltimore. since the exist ence of that tarty, were suddenly . brought to light, there is not a decent man in the 'State who now claims connection with it that would not shudder at their number and enormity, and seek the company of more congenial spirits. The Republican, of the 19th instant. eon- Laing the testimony of witnesses elicited dur ing the examination instituted by the Board of Directors of the Maryland Penitentiary, showing most conclusively that the charge made agi.inst the Warden of that institution was true, and that said officer did loan out the arms which the State of Ma7land had pro vided for its protection, to bis\politieal asso ciates to be used on the day of the last muni cipal election. The committee, composed of Know Nothings, who were appointed to in vestipts the charge, reported that they "are fully conrineed that Me guns and pi4ols nfthe prison were taken array for political purposes on the erening telore the last .Rigor's election," but the Board of Directors declined to receive the report, whereupon on motion of Mr. Hop kins the Board expressed its disapprobation unanimously of the course poraned by the Warden, and with this manifestation of their displeasure, the Warden will, we presume, escape a severe and deserved punish ment. There are mime more dark deeds which will yet be btotTelitt.to Light.—Freder ick Union. Virginia Election. The election in Virginie. for Governor, members of C,mgrees, &c., took place on Thursday last. The Democrats have elected twelve of the thirteen Congressmen, with the Bth district in doubt.

The army of 1813 wax composed of recruits from eighteen to twenty years of age. 0i a million and a quarter raised in 1813, only ono hundred thousand remained alive in 1814.

We allude to the edition of Sir 'Walter Scott's 1 novels, now in the course of publication by I them, and which is to be completed in twen ty-six volumes, at twenty-five cents a piece, or fire dollars for the whole. These volumes are printed in double column octavo, and each will contain about one hundred and twenty five pages. The entire sett of twenty-six volumes will be mailed, tree of postage, to any person-remitting five dollars to the pub lishers. This is an opportunity. never before had, for obtaining the Waverley Novels en tire, at a price within the means of every body ; for it is the cheapest edition ever pub lished. and those who rgniit fire dollars, and thus subscribe for the series, secure each volume for less than twenty cents.

Let us for a moment put the boot on the other leg.

But there is no more reason in requiring a Roguish boy to say the Ten Oosomendinents as they are translated by Protestants than in insisting that the Protestant boy shall say Paternosters. The cit isen of Beaton, wh other itomish or Protestant, pay times to suppOrt schools in which their children are to be taught read ing,writing, grammar, arithmetic, and suet, other branches of human seiimee as may be determined. But the Methodist doss nut agree to hare his child exposed to Prim byterian influences ; nor the Unitarian to have his liable to be—n; ho deems it—per verted to Episcopacy ; nor does the Romtsh parent mean to expose his child to the danger •of Protestantism. They pay for entirely other and different purposes. And any re• ' ligions instruction (ot course we do not mean the moral law) is just as impertinent as it would be for n Sunday school teacher to in ' struct his class iu Comitarative Anatomy. It is a good thing that children should have all kinds of insti action. But no teacher has a right to devote the school-hours to the practice of gymnastics with his pupils, on the ground—whieb is undeniable—that ex ercise of the abdominal muscles is a goof thing for children. So it is—but the parent chooses to select his gymnasium and teacher. Ile par; the other man to teach his children grammar.
