SPIRIT OF TEE MORNING PRESS
The Union discusses the false isms which
are before the country. contsnding that Know
Nothingism seeks, practically, to unite Church
and State in this country, and to bring about
the violation Of the solemn covenant MAIDS by
the State with the adopted citizen, when he
becomes pa.uralissd. The organ also replies
to the following remark Of the Intettigencsr's
made not long since, viz: IF it required all
the odds and ends in union with the Wings,
to bring about defeat so disastrous to the
Democracy, will it not require the same sort Of
materials to give that party a victbry?" The
editors defence against the insinuation of
pandering to isms, involved in the question as
asked by the Ints.tigsneer, is triumphant. He
shows, coucIusively, that where the ismites
vote with the Democracy, it is never under
the belief that the creed of ''lhe party sus-
tains their kinks.
The Sentinel urges the Richmond Wing to
e1cept from its sweeping denunciations Of
Northern Politicians, those Democrats who
have been faithful to the compromises of the
Constitution, as it (the SsntineD praises the
Nebraska bill Wings of Illinois, &C.
The L,aeltgemcer, in reply to Democratic
efforts to identify Mr. Fillmore with Adolf
donism, ON the ground that year 8 ago he wrote
pretty ultra Office seeking anti slavery let
ter, remarks that he always had the manliness
to refuse to pledge himself to any other party
than the Wig party, and that when trusted
by the people, " he did, whilst PRESIDENT, what
the great body of the calm-thinking people
'of the Union thought right. He was fairly
tried in times of peril to the Union, and proved
himself to be an American statesman. This
lis title Of which any man may be proud"
