KNow.NoTHINa1sM AND FREE SOIL.

Several Of our Free Soil papers in the West have
shown very tender regard for the Know-Nothings.
And 1t has suited the National Democrats to class
III ow.Nothings and A5olitionists together, to
make both parties the more odious. But the for
mcr disclaim the latter and all connection with
them in no very civil terms. They are now look
ing towards nationality for their party, and Of
course must and will be pro-slavery, and this isros
wonderful, for their cherished and distinctive prin-
ciples, are essentially pro-slavery, and the affinity
between them and Shareholders is natural and inc
vitablc.
To show the present direction Of the party, We
copy two or three extracts from different papers..

FREE SorIIsM NOT Administrative beg thoss
IN the American cause, the more particularly here
in Boston md Massachusetts,, not to take Free
Sollism for Americanism, or Americanism for Free
Soilism. The two parties and their principles are
as diverse as day and night. The Free Sellers
have attempted to engraft themselves upon the
American organization, but il wouldn't go Mt all
The Americans will sustain their own cause and
men, and no other. They will associate with no.
such company as congregates and conclayes at tho

! AMERICAN BOARD IN ENGLAND.-The American
q Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions has
sent an agent to Britain to secure the cooperation
of the British Churches, and the expression Of
e sympathy in their behalf. This agent, a Mr..
. Y ung, has met with a signal defeat in his efforts
at the Congregational Union. Mr.. Young's plea
for tho Board was listened to by the Union, which
n refused to thank him for it, or in the least degree
e to aid his mission Though he received the coun-
S tenance and support of some of the popular Doc
% tors of Divinity, who have been familiar with their
le reverend brethren, the advocates and apologists
of slavery from this side the Atlantic. '.-
This issue of the Boards effort for British SYM
patty, is cheeing. Had that sympathy been rem

= an approval of its pro-slavery course, and in so far

" to continue it. .r...
