Of odium to any party or set OF men who should be
convicted Of Known othingism. But they do this
like msnyrs with sort Of selfsacrifcing tone, -
II they had concluded to do their duty and abide
the consequences, or, as man will do sometimes,
had taken course opposite to public opinion aud
common sense, to show how original and fearless
they were. ~
Since the recent sweeping victories OF the Kno
Nothings in Philsdelphia and Washington, the
abuse which they have received from certain class
Of newspapers has been rather more temperate.
There is an ntuitive respect in the human mind for
power, under all circumstances and persons who
deal in politics soon become sagacious enough to
recognize the cat the moment she is out of the bag
Upon the eve OF these two elections when the party
journals first took the alarm, it was terrible to note
the onslaught they made upon the mysterious and
dreaded organization which fraternizes with no
party and threatens destruction to all. II was
denounced as a secret and dangerous banding to
gether of discontinued and maievolent spirits for
purposes which could be little less than reasonable;
grand el0quence took its loftiest flight to ex
press the enlightened and liberal policy which
this great people should adopt in the mat
tiers OF privilege and license, as well as Of
protection. towards the downtrodden and
oppressed" who seek refuge upon our shores from
the tyranny OF their own countries; and finally, an
earnest exh0rtation was addressed to the people to
frown down party which refused to show its hand,
and was working Its way into power and place by
system Of tactics hitherto unknown to politicians
and entirely new TO all the establiahed principles of
wire working. This appeal seemed to us at the
time much like recommending q man to make
mouths at himself in q mirror, or cut his own &C.
quaintance for having been ndiscreet as to offend
others by claiming what belonged to him, or like
asking people to administer sort Of solus self re-
Duke for presuming to investigate and decide upon
its own affairs. 1t appears, however, that this ap-
peal had little effect; that the public failed to look
upon Itself as band Of discontinued and tratorous
spirits although plainly requested to do 3d. and that
these independent and plain spoken journals fell
into the common of installing the voices of in
significant parties and factions for the voice Of the
great people.

among native citizen. he foregoing table Of the
arrival of smigrants in the United States, during q
period Of thirty years. which is nearly the term al
letted to generation of mankind by philosophy, is
remarkable, as corresponding SO nearly with the
number Of foreigners in the United States in 1850,
as determined by the census.
With the emigration TO the United States since
1920, the white population has doubled in about
twenty-three years. II may be said W. tn regard to
the increase Of population previous to that period
that the revolutionary war checked immigration.
and the ratio Of increase. The emigration to Penn
syyania and the Southern colonies was much great
er during the whole OF the eighteenth century than
il was to New England and New York; and hence the
population of the former increased the most rapidly
1t will be noticed that the emigration Of Euro
peans to this country did not sensbly affect the to-
tai amount Of population until very recent period,
say within the last twenty-five years. the number Of
emigrants arriving in the United States in 1880,
being less than forty thousand and in 1885 only
As ,444. More than two-thirds Of the foreign emf
grafton to the United States since the peace with
Great Britain in 1916 has taken place since the year
1910.
With regard to the effect Of emigration upon the
politics Of Che country, it is, doubtless true is
democratic party, large proportion Of the natura-
Lied citizens having uniformly voted with that
party. There has, however, always been a counter
acting element to the Irish Catholic and other
influences of the same kind, in the German, Scotch
and English Protestant influence OF emgrants from
the British and German dominions within the last
twenty years. The hostility of these Protestant
emigrants from Europe against the Catholics and
~ %.
Is felt by American Protestants on questions rela-
ting to religion and religious liberty. 1t is not
therefore surprising that many of the European
Protestants favor the movements of the Know
Nothings, and rejoice in their success.
The proportion Of Roman Catholics to Protestants
in the United States is but small in comparison
according to the Of 1885, Of their respective
number Of churches viz.:-Roman Catholic church

A Horrible Record.
The Louisville Journal, in an article referring to
the Ward case gives the following list of murdorerD
who were acquitted
There have been scores Of notorious cases Of muir
der and acquitta in this city and this State There
was the case Of Kunz who killed Schaefer Kunx,
hearing that Schaeher had spoken lightly Of mem-
Der Of his family, went to his coffee house and
cured him. Schaeffer picked up small stick and
went round the counter If to strike Kunz, where
upon the latter thrust deadly weapon into ~
without punishment. There was the case Of DELPHI,
who killed his uncle, Reuben Lyter. DELPHI armed
himself deliberately, and went to the upper market
house to meet Lyter. He met him, soughta quarrel
with him, and shot him dead on the spot. The
quarrel was about prostitute. DELPHI was tried and
acquitted by Jury. There was the case Of Croxton
who killed Hawthorn. Hawthorn was in q coffee
house sitting in chair, drunk and asleep. Croxton
struck him on the head in that condition with q
brickbat, and killed him. He was acquitted BY Q
jury.
There was the case of Peters, who killed Baker. In
Natchez, long time before, Baker, in fight, had
wounded Peters, and made him cripple. Peters
being thus disabled Baker supported him. The lat
ter, after about year, became very poor, and dis
continued his bounty. Thereupon Peters pursued
him 70 this city; rode in the night in hack to his
house; cent hackman to inform him that gentle.
man and friend wished to see him on business and.
when Baker came out and stood at the window Of
the hack, shot him dead instantly. Peters was &C.
Quilted by the jury and lived here some years after
wards--long enough, indeed, to murder, or try to
murder, a prostitute, upon whose bounty he sub
sisted. There was the case of the Pendegrasts,
who killed Buchanan, q schoolmaster. The elder
Pendegrasts, with two Of his sons, and negro.
went to Bachanan's schoolhouse, with loaded
guns, and killed him, without giving him chance
for his life. The jury gave verdict Of aoquittal.
There was the case of Shelby, who killed HORNE
in Lexington. The two dined at the same public
table, and, upon Horine's going into the street,
Shelby demanded of him why he had looked at him
in such a manner at the table. HORNE answered
that he was not aware of having looked at him in
any unusual manner. Shelby said, "You did, and
Il you ever do it again will blow your brains out.
l don't know who you are" HORNE responded-"I
know you, and suppose man may look at you IL
your name is Shelby" At that Shelby struck him
with his fist, and, without any display of weapon
by HORNE, flor he was unarmed,) Shelby shot him
dead. Shelby was indicted, but the jury found no
verdict against him. There was the case Of Harry
Daniel, Of Mount Sterling, who killed Clinton
Thompson. Daniel and Thompson were lawyers,
and brothersin-law. Thompson made some impu-
tation upon Daniel in open court Daniel drew .
pistol and shot him dead, in the presence OF Judge
and jury. Thompson had pistol in his pocket,
but did not draw It. Daniel was acquitted by .
iury.
