Joseph W. Carter, Esq, democratic candidate
for the Senate in this dist, ct, is dealing know-no
thingism some powerful blows On Monday night
last he spoke at the courthouse. His speech was
an overwhelming and irrefutabe array of fact and
argument against the new order. The know-noth-
ings generally adjourned to their lodge ROOM aud
at late hour called on. Mr.. Collier, who, with q
great deal of spirit and very little veraoious argu-
ment, attempted an answer to Mr.. Carter. Ths
i1now-nothings were well drilled during their ab-
sence, and toned for Mr.. Collier during his speech
with all the skill of theatrical supernumerares who
are taught to cry "huzzs" at regular intervals in
set speeches Mr.. Collier had desirsd division Of
the time, which Mr.. Carter Of course, and properly
refused, the gentleman says he is not q csnd-
date for any Office. We have never heard of any
other man who was so much enthused that, though
not an aspirsDt he should feel himself entitled to
an equal division of time at q candidates appoint
ments
Mr.. Carriers speeches are telling in their effect
He argues the question in thorough and logical
manner, and to the mind not choked with the
weeds Of fanaticism, are irresistbly convincing
He will address the people here on Monday
next Winchester Star.

OF It is fact worthy to be noted by the peo-
pie of the South, that the accounts that we have
had of the proceedings of the know-nothing ma
tonal convention do not report single Southern
delegate as defending the Kansas Nebraska bill
We know that several of them-Kenneth Raynor
General Pitcher and others-denounced the repeal
of the Missouri compromise, and were willing chat
it should be restored. The platform which the
Southern delegates passed does not approve the
principles of the bill. On the contrary, it repud-
stes the responsibility of that repeal, and only
pledges the party to sustain it act of legsls
ton. How do the people of the South like such
friends? The South claims an equal participation
in the territories under the constitution not an act

THE KNOw-NoTHNG ORDER-wHAT Is ITS CON.
DITIONs

DlTIONs
The question whether or not the Know Nothing
party is defunct, is being discussed in all parts of
the Union. The Charleston Mercury of the 18th
has an able article upon. the subject in which the
favorable character for perfectng national orgsni-
zation, ''the Convention has failed signaly and
hopelessly to effect its object" We copy from that
journal the following paragraphs, embodying as
tional view of the real state of the case as we
have seen anywhere:
In the, first place. this secession of so large ma
jority Of the Northern members breaks up the par
ty in the only section where it had yet triumphed.
Know Nothingism had carried no State in the
South had established no claim to represent or
speak for the South. In Virginia, the only State
South of MAsons and Dixon's Line where the bat
tie has been fought it fell before the Democracy.
In Georgia, Tennessee aud every other Southern
State, the Democratic Party were rsllying for rs
overthrow. Southern Know-Nothingism therefore
represented in the National Convention no large or
controlling constituencies; and Southern delegates.
whatever their numbers, eoquence or ability, were
in fact the representatives of the minority of their
people. On the other hand, Know Nothingsm, in
fusion with Freesoil, had swept the entire North.
1t there that the party had its origin and &C.
The secession of the North, therefore, from the
National Convention, was the secession of the ma
jor section of the psrty-the secession, in fact, Of
the party itself That the members from New
York, or Pennsylvania or New Jersey, have Joined
with the Southern members in supporting the plat
form, amounts tonothing-for the party in these
States as in the rest triumphed only by its ALI
suce with freeso; and as the platform will force
this element back to its natural combination, with
the Seward party, it cannot escape utter defeat in
them, if it attempts to renew the contest. The
conservative portion of the party in these States is
in hopeless minority, and the storm of Abolition,
which viii soon break into unbroken violence up
on ther viii destroy their last hope of existence
What, then, has beoame of the Grand National
Convention of the Great National Know Nothing
Party, which promises such glorious things for
the peace and stability 1t has gone the way of
the whig and democratic parties. 1t has attempt
ed, ike them, to resist abolition, to reconcile the
North and the South, and it has broken down,
while yet the hopes of its friends beat high, and
thousand considerations Of ambition, power and
spols urged the necessity of union; broken down
upon an issue which its very organization declared
to be secondary to its own, and sought to ssiae.

THE KNOW NOTHING PLATFORM

We will not believe that any respectable norton
of the citizens of Kentucky can longer be gulled
and imposed upon by the reckless and unprncipled
know-nothing press of the State. While the Phil
sdelphia convention was yet in sbeyauce the peo-
pie might place some reliance in the earnest and
continual protesaton of know nothing editors and
hope that know-nothingisn might yet resolve it.
self into party, which would commend itself to
the confidence of the South. The repeated prom
ises that the know-nothing party of the North would
manifest itself sound upon the question of slavery
when the National Council met, doubtless quoted
the fears of great many right thinking men. But
the know-nothi1g editors of the State could never
have believed what they wrote, when they thus
assured their readers They knew as well before
after the Philadelphia convection that the whole
Northern wing of the order was thoroughly abor
tionized and that all of the trumphs had been won
by an appeal to the anti-s!avery feeling of the Free
states Their course is objectionable; it was a will
full and premeditated attempt to betray the South
and the price of their treachery was to be the
spos OF Office.
Our readers will recollect what howl of assumed
indignation raised by the editor of the Journal
and his Contractors when it was stated that the
Northern know nothing ORGANIC alton was based
upon ant-slavery, and that it was pledged against
the admission of any more slave States. We were
stignatized as liars and calumnistors What has
been the result? No sooner was the atternpt made
the rights of the South than thirteen States fatty
refused TO entertain any such proposition; and
when it was passed over their heads seeded from
the convention and passed for themselves an anti
slavery platform. The portions of the delegations
from the two Northern States which voted with
the South, represents parties not strong enough to
carry village or county in their States These
facts the mendacious know -nothing press of the
South is now striving to conceal from the people.
But fortunately for the perpetuity of institu-
tons, the people longer willing to be deceived
They are determined to know the truth, and are
investigating these subjects for themselves. They
can no longer be blinded to the peris which the
success of the know nothing party must inevitably
bring upon the country. Silly twaddle about for
eigners and the terrible Pope will not fighten the
people of the South into an abandonment of their
constitutional rights. Americans must rule Amer
tca is a cstchword that will never reconcile the
people of the South to being ruled by Northern |
freesoilers and sboitonists. The spoils coalition
is failure. The patriotism and Judgment of the |
South will pronounce against it in thunder tones
The verdict of republican Virginia will be affirmed |
by every slaveboding State.-Lou Dem.
