GEN. HoUsToN.-A discussion took place recently in
Washington, Texas, between Gen. Houston and Judge
Oldham, in which the former off second best.
The Judge trimmed the General most handsomely,
and to the delight of the Democrats present where
upon the General became enraged, -esorted to per-
sonalities, gave the X. N, sign and broke up the

Gen. Houston is emphatcaly dead politician.
He deserts the principles of Jackson and the Dem
ocrats thereupon matter of course desert him.
As long as Gen. jackson lived, such men Rous-
ton, Van Buren, and Benton were restrained by his
power them, and kept in the line of duty; and
as long as Henry Clay lived the Wing party was
preserved from the influence of sr1s, and from the

offshoot of Know Nothingism:
sThe recent expose of the Tempars, order
OF Know Nothings, together with the publication OF
their ritual in several of the leading Journals OF the
city, continues topic of interest. The order Is an
oHshoot of the X. n. organization, "a wheel within
a wheel" 1t founded in the Spring of 1854,
in this city, and in May 80 there were SO Temples
in the counties of New York and Kings, numbering
perhaps 10 900 voters Death is the penalty OF re-

persons whose religion is anti-Republicah, and who
are endeavoring by of Jesuits and Pr ests to

THE AMERICAN ORDER IN New YoRK.-The Know
Nothing State Council of New York, in session at
Binghamton, did admit representatives of the
press to it's session. Nevertheless those indefatga-
BILE gentlemen somehow contrived to give reports of
it's sayings and doings, which of course to be
received with some degree of ca ution. They say
that out of thin teen hundred Councils said to exist
in the State only one hundred and eighty-fve we're
represented. The most important intelligence is
that the Platform was unanimously adopted; in re-
ference to which the New Nork Commercial Adver-
tiser pertinently asks 4 How many Platforms are
the Know Nothings to have? One in each State,

The PIETY TIE KNOW orHINGs.-The Phila-
delpha platform of the know-nothings opens with
irreverent declaration of obedience to the One
when recollect that the order proscrbes believ

the unbeeving Atheist.
The problem of this declaration of the know-noth-
ings in their Philadelphia platform may probably be
solved by the 10th verse of the Cd of James
"Thou believest there is but one God. Thou dost
we'll. The devils also believe and trena6le"

To sing thy hallowed memory,
Which burns yet bright, vestal fire
Upon the shrine of Liberty?
Say, may the grandeur of thy tongue
Sweep thoughtful DER my Tyre to-day
May 1 resume it long unstrung
And with thy flaming glory play!
Thy thunder rolled round glory's throne,
Shook empires; like the orphean Tyre,
Gave vigor to the lifeless stone
And breathed sunny brooks its fire.
The cold stars in the silent sky
Looked from their everlasting thrones,
And trembled lest thy destiny
Should dim their thoughtful brows. Now means,
The night breeze DER thy silent grave,
Where grandeur sits alone and weeps;
Her dark locks DER thine ashes wave,
And bright heaven thy memory keeps.
Earth smiled beneath thy steps; the hill
Bid noisy rocks their echoes rest,
When thou ddst lift thy voice The will
Of States obeyed thy stern behests.
Like tabled Atlas did thy neck
Bear up our land in peril's hour;
Dangers that souls of nations shake,
Shrank back before thy magic power.
Old earth rolled onward in her track
Prouder to bear son like thee,
Than if a star threw brightly back
From her dark breast divinity
The world lent thee her willing ear,
Bear in the sunlight of thy soul;
The world admired and gazed with fear
On whose sceptre was, control.
The glorious that lights the spheres,
Which roll before his majesty,
Stops from his grandeur and reveres
Thine everlasting destiny.
The sod claims thy sacred form,
Thy voice sweeps DER the land more;

That thunders at our nations door.
The world weeps for thy spirit now,
Which sank before deaths stern decree,
The world will vanish too. trow,
