THE KNOW NoTHINGS" ND GOVERNOR
SEWARD.

We learn from the New York Tribune
that the Know Nothings of New York are
exerting themselves to defeat the election of
Mr. Seward to the United States Senate
The Herald has an article to the same effect.
1t says that the first and most important re-
suit Ct the up'ising of the Know Nothings
will be the sscrushipg out' of the Seward CO.
altion. The order seems to know nothing
of the existence of slavery 10 the South, and
contemptuously scouts the abolition fanaticisnl
of the North. The prospects are that the adj
ministration and the Seward coalition will be
finally wound mp together. In view of this
ultimatum, the Know Nothings promise to
render the highest service to the government
and to the Union.
