whether Henry s. Mott, the Loco tocc
candidate for Canal Commissioner, is not
member of the so-calIed Order of Know
Nothi0gs, whom they so violently and BIT
terly denounce as a set Of conspiratorS a
gainst the rights and liberties of the pco-
pie. In doing SO, we took occasion to
warn them to exercise the precautiou not
to attempt to speak for him without ex
press .authority, nor to undertake to deny
the charge that he is a Know Nothing,
lest they might place themselves in the
embarrassing position of having their
yeracily impeached and their assertion
contradicted by some of the knowing ones.
Taking the hint thus thrown oat 10 them
by Us, and Icing evidently determined TO
profit by it, both those Journals, thoush
loud in their dculNciuti9l5S Of the Order,
and extrayigant in their charges against
the Whigs as sympathizins with it, have
acted upon the principle that "discretion
is the better part of valor," and remained
quiet rs death in relation to the inquiry
made Of them by US. Acting upon the
same theory which they have adopted IN
their couduct towards the Whig candidate
for Governor, that Of being justified IL
dcnouucing him i Know Nothing, and m
vokiur opposition to his election from all
those opposed to the Order, because he
has not contradictod the charge that be
is a member, we are justified in PFonoun-
cling Henry S. Mott, their candidate lof
Canal Commissioner, member OF the
the Order so much denounced and abused
by them. Having failed to answer our
respectful inquiry, We shall not be con
tent with any deuia! on their part here
after. The only way the charge can now
be pat at rest is by an open ami public
denial by Mr.. Mott himself. Let him
publish such denia! under his signature,
if he dare, and ii lie fails to DO 50 let the
editors Of the PsnuSyIca.ian and the 4/-
guS hide their face-, and foreEer after
wards remain silent Oh tie subject oi
Know NotAingism.
The Demoafatj2 J1j2i, ct II arriaburg,
a BiSlcr organ, makes lame and bung-
lin. attempt to whitewaah Mr.. Mott, but
in doing 50 neither attempts to deny the
charge nor to di.eu;se the fact that the
