| Gentlemen, though l am not speaker
can at least thank you from the depths
OF a warm heart for the compliment you
have paid me, in inviting me to meet you
| on this occasion. No compliment could
have more gratifed ne than this invi'
tation from the ladies Of Memphis to q pub
lie tea party. | know my wing friends
will both pardon and justify me when say
that prize this compliment, coming from
Wings and Democrats alike, far more than
I could similar one from members OF my
own party alone. There was time years
ago when l cared little what my political
opponents said or thought of me- had
the regard, the support, and the applause OF
my political friends. But | have long
since ceased to feel thus. lhave learned
10 appreciate and to desire the good opin-
ion Of all good men. have learned that
candor. and truth, and honor, and honesty
and wisdom, and patriotism, and VIRTUE, are
confined TO no party.

have acted throughout my life, il unialter-
terins. but time teaches to all true hearts
the great lesson Of political liberality. !
have published some things. which, although
well intended at the time, could wish
blotted from the memory OF my reader and
and from my own. have written some
bitter things of men, who have since pass
ed away from the earth, and whose mem
cries revere, aud on whose graves could
shed tears Of sorrow and regret An.
when look back through the twenty-slx
wears of my editorial life, and think how
many l once denounced who afterwards
became my personal friends or proved them
selves their country's friends and how
many l once eilogised an toiled for who
have since turned their hands ruthiesfiy
and causelessly against me; when ! reflect
how often the most arduous and devoted
political services are forgotten BY those to
whom they are rendered, and how often the
deepest political injuries are magnanlmus-
" forgiven by thoie to whom they are
done: and when | remember how many OF
my political friends have striven to crush
me, and how many democrats have gather

days of my personal peril, should be gull

and on every feeling and impulse Of my
heart. if were not to weed out from my
nature the partisan bitterness that once
flourished there. am q Wing, but viii
greet every true hearted Democrat as my
brother, and will greet no false hearted
wing as such. What the future of parties
is to be know not, and the wisest ofus are
not wise enough to know. Disorganlza-
ton and reorganizstions are in progress and
and in ali probability many who have for
years been battling desperately against
each other, will find themselves arrayed
shoulder to shoulder in defense Of the great

We are pleased to learn from the Louisville
Journal that it is opposed to the Know-noth-
ings, assuming the principles generally attribu-
tad to them, as their real principles. The Jour
nal of the 23rd ult. says
1--WE understand that gentleman was heard
abusing us for our neglect to denounce the prn-
ciple of the Know nothings. We do not know
what the principles of the Know -nothings are.
We have seen certain statements purporting to
come from those who claim to be. seceders from
the association, and who also claim to have vio-
lated their oaths in obedience 40 what they be-
lieved their duty, but we do not know whether
the statements are genuine, nor do we know
whether they are true or false.
eThe principle generally imputed to the
Know-nothings are not our principles. We
would not be member of secret political So
ciety, nor are we in favor Of general exclusion
from office. Our views have been well known
for many years, and they have undergone no re-
cent change. We shalt enter into their defense
when we deem them in peril"
