A KNOw-NOTHING RECRUIT.

Ii il instructive to observe the irresistible attraction
with which the secret society Of Know -Nothings draws
into its bosom all the rotten remains Of defunct Fede
ral;sm. The fact is significant. The surviving men,
bers Of the old Federal party recognize in this de-
veopment of Notiv,sm, the same intoerant spirit and
the same hatred of the foreignborn citizen, which
mpelled hem in the brief hour Of their reign to enact
their cruel laws against aliens. That infamous sta-
tute provoked reaction in public opinion which
swept the Federalists from power, and made their
very name a abye-word and a reproach among NELL
All their subsequent efforts TO rise from their degra'
daon, have been vain aud hopeless. Pride amo'toh'
resentment and lust of place have consumed them Us
,hoy langushed in exclusion from office. In tho depth
Of their despair, the KnowEohng conspiracy cheers
them with promise at once Of revenge and power.
The impulse of sympathy combines with the susses-
ton Of policy to perfect the alliance between the Fe-
deralists and the Know -Nothings.
The most respectable in point of reputation and
ability OF the old Federal Wings who openly avow
u sympathy with the Know Nothiugs, is John NJ.
Clayton, the ex chief OF tho Galphn cabinet. After
the death Of President Taylor and the dispersion OF
his body-guard Of peculating politicians, Clayton
% TX into obscurity with visible chance of resur-
rec,icu. General Cass, however, by an indscreet
aud ungvurrous assault on his personal honor, from
On impulse of hatred did that for Clayton which his
warmest friend could not have accomplished by the
most assiduous service. uo reused tho veteran Fc-
deralis from the sleep Of DEATH restored him 10 the
Senate and enabled him to wreak ample revenge on
his unwilling and dsmayed beustactor General Cass
i. doubtless umical TO the kuow.NothnSs but by
restoring Clayton TO life, be has given them leader
who will combine and direct their energies with great
ability and the best possible effect.

We perceive that the proposition has been suggested
to hold convention to nominate candidate for the
Bourd of Public Works, DIR. Graham's term of SER
vice having accidentally expired: and the coming
(;ubrrnatoral convention has been pointed out
proper occasion for this nomination to be made.
We SEQ no necessity for this thing in fac, single
reason why this step should be taken; while, tho
contrary, multitude Of objections 10 it readily pre-
sent themselves to our minds.
In the first place the term for which Or. Graham
was nominated aud elected, has not yet ended. The
members Of the Board Of Public Works were elected
for the period of six years, and accidental fail
ure draw long straw should afford no reason for
defeating the will of the people, or even impose The
necessity of q second convention to nominate gem
teman, already the selected candidate of his party.
Secondly. We presume no man ever discharged
the numerous and pcrplexing duties incdenta I" his
office with more ability alacry and trInneSs, nor III
the same length of time won higher c"Inm"nda-
tons for his undivided and impartial administration
OF public affairs thhn DR.. Graham.
Thirdly. The datics Of Il member of the Board OF
Public Works require knowledge OF the condition
Of the Internal Improvement system OF the Stale to
he acquired only by much experience, steady obSer
vuton, aud thorough examination. This knowledge,
it is but simple justice DR.. Graham TO say he las,
in degree too, not inferior to hut Of nny man in the
commonwealth. To removes such gentleman, would
be striking heavy blow at the public interests
These and numerous other objections occurto us at
the irst blush Of the suggestion and we earnestly
trust that il will bu abandoned, or at all events, tall
uuheeded on the public cAr. SOuth- SIDE Democrat.
