the gallant Democracy of Virginia had
displayed. The meeting commenced by
declaring first that much as northean abo-

full Know Nothingism was still more
alarming. the former, would divide ou,
country, "the latter sOould make our cOas-

portions of the meeting-the Protestant
and the Cathohc--diGded, and each sep
