ASHAMED OF THEIR COMPANY

ASHAMED OF THEIR COMPANY.
II viii be seen by the following, that the .sold
line Wings Of Philadelphia have openly repu.
dated the Know Nothings' and resolved to
pclaee them under the same political proscript-
ions they are themselves preparing for the ma
tunlized ciiixens and the Catholics.
The following resolutions were passed at q
late whig meeting at Nelson's hotel, in tina,
city:
Resofred, That, whereas extraordinary efforts
have Of late been made by certain parties in
this community TO Dissolve the great whig party
into sections Of dangerous and destructive char.
acter and whereas such sectional parties have
now boldly declased their great object to be the
prescription Of citizens not of heir own organ
isstion, or not born on the soil, or who do no,
worship God according 10 their peculiar notions
and whereas the late municipal election has
fully devoled deep-rooied secret organization
the object OF which is the transferring and CON
uniting Of the wing party indiy TO the sup.
port ofthe persons and.princ,rles Of such Sc
cret order
Il 10 therefore resolved by the Convention
that Why Associations shall be formed in every
ward Of the city tor the purpose Of recognizing
the whig party on the good old pure and en-
lgh,ned principles Of Henry Clay.
RcsoiUcd, That whilst the sad Societies
pledge their unboarded support 10 every pure
and unstained Wing, they pledge themselves
not to vae for any person for a political station
who is willing TO prescribe his neighbour, either
for his religious opinions or the place Of his
birth.
Resofscd, That the members Of said AssociS
tiona sill give no support whatever either fol
the nomination or election OF any person whom
they have good reason to believe i, belongs I,
any secret political organic ,tion Whatever.
ResOtSed, That The refusal Of aNy nominee

iticaI osxinaxstion, and TO explain what are it,
principles, staltbe held sufficient Cor the sale
= Wing Association not only to take such per.
eon's name of the list Of nominees, but to de.

sand to this the influence Of the officers OF

ions Of the Rapids, the United States Mail
Agency, to say nothing Of those educated at

have an influence arrayed against the Democrat
ic nominee, which ought to have beaten MIR.
Sample quo votes, exer,ed 10 its utmost as il
was against him"
Now a. am the u s. Mail agent at Keo-
kuk, il is obvious that the allusion quoted above
10 intended for me, and IL that statement be a
fair specimen of the truth Of the allegations
against other Democrats in the same articles,
would not be afraid 10 insure them against all
damage 10 their regulations at a very low rate
However, they can speak for themselves; and
shall speak Tor myself. pronounce the whole
u the charge. So far as am concerned, an
unmitiga.ed falsehood.
II Il we'll known fact, that no. only voted

lfany man dares TO deny the truth Of this state.
ment y i'll furnish the public with the most am.
pie evidence Of il from the mouths Of witnesses
who cannot be for one moment be dscredited.
l must say, however, that such charges would
come with better grace from some old veteran
oethe party, than from fled Ceiling, who is still
hopping about with the pin feathers of Mt.
Pleasant abolition democracy sticking to his
back.
Verify has it come 10 pass, that the democ-
racy VI our YoUEssrERs in the faith requires
the endorsement Of that venerable white haired
Old veteran Of the Plaindealer, Lewis v. Taft !!
Did not this high priest of democracy get his
teaching among the abolitionists ofMt Pleas, ant
something less than two years ago'
Now can truly add, that but for the exer-
ertions Of sev eral democrats (of which number
claim 10 be one.) who laying aside all minor
cons derations, fought for the ticket on the
day Of the election not only Sample, but the
whole ticket would have been defeated Those
who expected TO be, or were benefited by the
result ia this county, give u instead Of graf
itude, calumny without stint or limit.
Yours Truly,
