Wyoming to be rc-annexed to Luzerue ;
they would as .soon think of being re-annexed
to Great liritaia.
4. The people of Wyoming have un-

is under One Million of Dollars. Its

tLe rights of America., citizens guaranteed
I .1 .a . 1 I ..1 .,V.K t.,
by the most solemn pledges of public faith
Those daring usurpers have not the moral
courage to meet the democratic party in
open debate ; they seek to achieve their
object, the entire control of government,
by secret political movements. Persecu
tion for religious opinions is one of their
revenkd articles of political action j and
the di-franchisemeut of all citizens of
foreign birth is vainly and impudently
avowed by them also. Iu view of such
principles, we are forced to believe that
knoK-mthinij; as a political party, are
infi, I tit of the deepest dye. With enemies
to God and man, we will not consent to
! reason. Their secret organization is cvi-
donee of treason against public liberty.
Becent events, connected with the progress
of this secret political pirty, fully justify
our denunciations of those enemies of the
j republic. Is it not known that Irishman,
; Germans, citizens of foreign birth have
j been assassinated by the dagger of those
revolutionary demons, at mid-day, Upon
the public highways 7 And is it not also
understood that the profession of a partic
ular religious faith singled out the citizen,
as a proper object for know nothing venge
ance f If blood thirsty politicians arc
prepared to pay the price they propose for
ruling America and directing its progress,
we admonish them of the awful conse
quences which must attend on tbe experi
ment. Before the infidel know-nothing
party shall have asserted the power of the
assassin's dagger to clear their patn-way
to office and pawer, under free government
those enemies to public liberty will have
to march over wounded and slaughtered
millions, over putrifynig heaps of citiicns
- , . . ..
of foreign, birth, over domestic and soc ml
friendships, over the best interests of the
country. Though we tons spcas, we en
tertain no fears for the future and onward
happiness, peace and prosperity of the
Union.
But we will not pursue the investigation
of principles avowed by the stilleto gang,
a socret, skulking organisation, composed
of narrow-minded bigots, whose views, if
any they have, ean never bear the test of
bold, manly.fearless argument. They have
invoked a spirit of religions persecution,
and they have unfurled the traitors' ban.
ncr in opposition to American principles.
Men who are insensible of their moral and
religions degradation, ahonld be turned
over to the scorn sod derision of the
friends tcon4irutional liberty.
The Circassian's Daughter
Some years ago a gentleman arrived one
morning at the door of the British consul
general at Bucharest, dressed in the wild,
travel-stained garb of a Transylvania shep
herd. His beard was nntrimaicd, his
sandals covered with soil, while a settled
melancholy pervaded his features. The
consul-general invited him to his house,
and made him his guest He was an
Englishman of large fortune. A wound
iu his affections had driven him from home,
and he wandered on as far as the Carpthi
an Mountains, where for some time he ltd
the rude life of the hunter hoping
that in change of scene and excitement
of the chase he might Cud a cure. He
was disappointed, however, for there was
no sufficient dauger in bear and wolf hunt
ing tc give it the excitement he required,
and he left the Carpathian forests, and
wandered alone in the desolate steppes of
Wallachia, fharing the food of the stray
herdsmen he happened to meet and sleep
tion and arms, he sailed for the coast of

The vessel in which they came then sailed
on bcr way back to Constantinople, but a
short distance from the Circassian coast,
was captured by a Russian cruiser, was
bronght into the Turkish port cf Trcbi

the Governor. The two Englishmen pro
ceeded into the mountains with the Cir
cassians, to where the fighting was going
on, and they were busily engaged in skir
mishing and ambuscading, and at times
iu hand to hand encounters with the Mus
vitcs. Manly, mounted on a fiery Tartar
horse, clud in chain armor, and with a
long lance in his hand, was in the thick of
every danger. He courted death : but for a
long time passed unscathed from lance or
bullet. At lengthen a sharp encounter with
a party of Russians, he was struck by a
chance shot, and though not rcriouslv
wounded, he was forced to submit to be
carried to the house of one of the chiefs,
where he was recommended to remain till
his wound should be healed. The wife
and daughter of the chief in whose house
he was quartcred,tended him with care and
skill, and he was soon able to move about,
but was still too weak to return to the
camp. Tbe chiefs daughter was about
fifteen years old : she was called in the
country "The Rose," on account of her
beauty. She was gentle and intelligent,
and Manly passed many of the hours of
convalescence in giviug her instruction
in some of those simplo accomplishment
which form the first iudiments of an edu

offers ; and the chief at length said he
would give him a final answer on the fol
lowing day. At a short distance from the
house Manly found Rose, seated on the
ground, weeping. It was a place at which
they had often sat together, talking of tbe
strange country from which Englishmen
came. Poor Rose had overheard Manly s
proposal. She was no longer a child ; she
had passed rapidly into budding woman
hood. If Manly loved her as a daughter,
ber feelings for him had grown into a I
timid and passionate love. Manly said
that her father would be sure to consent,
and that they would both bo happy t
getber in Frankistan. So poor Rose was
comforted. She dried her tears, and re
turned to the Louse confident and cheer
ful. The sun had risen for a time when
Manly awoke next morning. He was
istonished to hear none of the usual
sounds about the house. There was
something ominous in the silence. He
dressed hastily, hurried into the principal
apartment, and found it empty. With a
beating heart, Le called Rose ; but there
was no answer. He went out, aud met
an armed Circassian coming from the
stables where his horse was kept This
man told him that the chief aud all his
family had left for Batouu in t'ae middle
of the night, where they were to embark
lor Constantinople. He was lift bebiud,
he said, to wait on the Mousafi-cr, and to
be his guide wherever he wished to go.
