Of attempting inn racticable legislation, and
furpii hing vice with respectable defenders by
clothing virtue in tyranncal and repulsive
garb, to attack the source and root Of the pre-
vailing intempersuce, to nip it in the bud-at
our yearly electionsl How much more effec-
lively could the advocates Of Clark's bill labor
in the cause they support by putting down
with strong hand the drunken scenes which
witnessed their election, a. well as that Of
others, than by battling for measure which can
never be enforced!
Sweeping the country during the coming
year, as they are pretty sure Of doing, the
Presidential canvass of 1856 will be the next
great theatre for the Know Nothing work
Herein, az elsewhere, they must pursue q
different track from all The old parties if they
seek to establish themselves ia the esteem and
affection of the county. They must at one
blow abolish the plan OF national conventions al
Baltim which are and always have been
mere swindles, contrived for the decent sacri-
fee of principles. and for the corrupt gratilica-
ton OF political -harpers. They are needless
innovation upon the principles of the cons.it&l-
tion, and ought to BE- abolished without mercy
Il will be the duty OF the Know Nothings "a
accomplish this useful TASK, and to set the ex-
ample afresh Of separate State action in &C.
coroance with the doctrines of the constitution
Respectable men should he selected in each
State as electors; if they choose voters may
,nscribe on the back of their ticket the name OF
bin they desire TO see President; and the
,lectors Of all the States should unite and try
to agree upon some one man. If they cannot
agree, the highest names should be sent to the
House Of Representatives, and choice there
made in accordance with the constitution.
This would be the greatest revolution that has
taken place in our politics this century.
