UWe beg leave to ask the Baton Rouge
Advocate if it acknowledges that description of
Democracy which, at the North, embraces rank
Freesoilism or Abolitionism! No! we hear
the sarcastic editor of this Democratic organ
exciaim. Just so, sir. The Know Nothinos
here may be widely different in principle to
the Know Nothings of the North. As for
MIR. Ned Buntline and his predictions, we
know nothing and care less. We believe apy
cause would be better off without his advocacy
OF it. We re.assert, from information as cor.
rect as our opponents can obtain, that the Or.
der OF the Know Nothings, as it is known here,
is not opposed to the Catholics, or other reli-
gIous sect, nor has it any connection with re.
Ilgious matters. If we thought so, we should
be the last to advocate it.

The New

This admirable boat and regular mail packet
mad the misfortune to get aground on TUESDAY,
last near this town, and consequently lost a
trip to Bayou Sara, as she returned to New
Orleans. With her boiler deck extending to the
extreme bow Of the boat, the Nep Latona pre.
sents the greatest attractions in summer than
any other boat, to those visiting and returning
from the city. Capt Gross, too, is universally
liked for his amiable and obliging manners
nor is his clerk, Mr.. HEko, behind him in this
respect. We believe that our old friend J.B.
TOWNSEND is at present connected with this
ooat, and be may calculate to see on board 4
host Of his old acquaintance, particularly if
they nre for the city, for his companionable
qualities are too inviting to be lost. We wish
this fne boat and all connected with her. the
greatest success.
