sLP The kNow>N oTHINGs. This
order is still on the increase. A, first It
was supposed that the society would be
a shortlIved affair, got up solely for the
purpose of redressing local grievances,
and when this end was accomplished, il
would dissolve. But the result has proved
different. Almost every election that has
tnken place for six months past, shows
unmistakeable evidences of their pres.
ence.
Our Irish Catholic population take the
matter seriously, and very injudiciously
Instead OF letting the society die out ol
i self, which it would did it not meet with
opposition, they have famed the smoul
deriug fire into flame, and it is now
raging fierceIy. Fierce, bloody riots
have occurred, in almost every instance
where the Irish and Americans have met.
In Manchester, N. H., on the 4lh. par.
ty of Irish attacked every American that
passed their headquarters. OF course,
retaliation followed, Five hundred ci,i-
zens armed themselves, tore down the
houses of the ringleadeis, and burnt The
Catholic Church. Every paper we open
contains accounts of similar affairs.
That the Know Nothings are wrong in
many particulars, that their creed in some
respects is intolerant, cannot be denied
But the Catholics will find they have
taken the wrong way to put them down.
Let this way of crushing societies be re-
cognized as legitimate, and they will dis.
cover that natives know that "clubs are
trumps." Hickory sticks are arguments
that others beside Irish can handle, and if
they persist in their use, will find them to
be like

This terrible malady seems 10 be pre-
vailing this season, in every section Of
the eOuniry. Every exchange we open
contains accounts Of its ravAsss, and fre-
quenIly at places which heretofore have
escaped The scourge. There were 2OT

week ending on the I'd inst. The victims
were mostly foreigners. newly arrived,

cases were reported on the 5lh. Toledo
seems 10 be marked for destruction. Thir-
ty-two cases terminated fatally in that
place, on Wednesday last. The disease
presents worse features, this season, than
ever before. lis ravages are not confined
tc the large and crowded cities, but ex-
tend TO the villages, aud through the coun-
try. Eight died in Creslline, on the
5lh insis. Crestine is situated at The
junction Of the D hio and Pennsylvania

hundred. The victims were all Irish peo-
pie, living in shaniies, and not very cafe
full of their habits and diet. A Board OF
Health has been appointed 10 take such
steps as the exigency requires. They
had determined, il is said, to remove the
Irish families and burn the shantes.

"a tour through eight or ten counties

which we heard, in a ten days tour, was
an occasional one in reference to the
spring wheat, that it was so heavy that it
would probably lodge in the field. Wis.

the result of the harvest in 1854. .Judg>
ing from the appearance of the winter
wheat in many portions of the State, we
think that the harvest must commence
next week, and be we'll advanced by the
10th of July, if the present warm weather
