Know-No thing TrieIsery.

We received the following from one IF
the most respectable citizenso of Harper's
Ferry. tse1poses a species of trickery
that would quito the blush /" those de-
signing politicians engaged in the Wild
hunt for Office" which the great Anseri-
can party" was formed to put down. ac-
cording to the, demagoguical declarations
of its advocates. A victory attained by
such means is worse than defeat; and
the fact that it was deemed necessary to
resort to such tricks, in a decidedly Wing
State, to defeat the Democratic ticket,
tells eloquent tales Of the conscious weak
ness Of the Know-N Nothing party. dc

w. P. COOPER. Esqr: Dear SRI in
close you two tickets, one Democratic and
one KNOW Nothing, such as were used in
the city of Baltimore at the late election
YOU will observe that they both bear.the
same device, and the same motto, "Jack.
son and Liberty" This game was played
throughout the State. and was no doubt
mainly instrumental in achieving the tenn
pornry triumph of the so-called American
Party.
You will readily imagine that amid the
excitement and confusion incident to ar
important election in a large city, many
honest Democratic votes We're tricked in.
to voting the Know Not hing ticket, thu.
being cheated out of their franchise in {
double sense. -A.S' 7-'.'sss.
The Democracy Of Maryland have been
taught lesson that will be useful in fu.

dain to ensure success by dishonest means
they will be more vigilant in preventing
its practice by their opponents in future

FAILURE OF THE" UNDERGROUND RAIL
ROAD."--Uuder this head the Norfolk
Herald oil Saturday relates the following:
Early yesterday morning we received
information that IL schooner had been dri-
zen ashore in Princess Anne county with
fugitive slaves ON board, and shortly af-
forwards we had the satisfaction of seeing
the captain and mate Of'the schooner, who
had been brought up to this city and
lodged i'll Jail for safe keeping. ...''.l
1t appears that the schooner Mary Ann
Elizabeth, Of Baltimore, commanded by
NVm. Lambdcn, OF Wilmington, Dell, as.
sisted by Benjamin Collins, of Port Nor
ris, \. j., as mate, left this port on We'd
nesday last bound for Philadelphia. Du-
ring the gale of that night the vessel was
driven OH shore about FIVE miles from
Cape Henry with the loss of some of her
sails and rigging and in the morning it
was discovered that she had on board Sc
veral negroes. whose owners were known
TO reside in this city, rThe captain had in
his possession $125, which the negroes
said they had, paid him for their passage
to Philadelphia. .fa.i s,4s ..,.y. =..F J,
The Captain, however, says that the
slaves were on board without his know.
ledged-that he went forward on We'd
nesday evening and discovered q chip I'M
der the forecastle hutch-that he raised
the hatch and discovered tho slaves stow.
ed away ia the forccastle-that he called
the mates attention to the fact, who was
rs much astOnished as himself--that the
money was then taken from the negroes
aud Tie schooner put about for Norfolk,
but owing 10 tile gale of wind blowing at
axe lime 1t was found impracticabIe, and

The Why They Did II.

The following. from The N o True
Delta. may be capiu.lly applied to 'he
game played by the Know No,hingS in
Baltimore At the late rlrcliOn-and par>
ticu!arly to the Third Ward. The state.
mcnt is upon the authority OF gentleman
from ST. Helena Parish. in relation 10 Tie
voting at Tie late Loui, lana election, ut
the Seventh Precinct in that Parish.
where the Know Nmhings cmrricd the
Precinct by - considerable minority
Here is the statement
THE Inspectors, without going through
the form Of qualifying themselves by be-
ing sworn in. opened the polls and took
the votes in M old hat, until about twelve
o'clock in the day, when bnflot box,
prepared by tie dominant party. was
brought to the polls locked, (the key, NO
suppose was lost. and the votes already
deposited in the old hat put into tile box,
M' OugA hole in Tie top tit. How many
votes had been in the box before il. was
brought to the polls could not be well as
certaned, AS the key was I" no wliar" to
open it at that time. AS the tickets in
the box ut the close OF the polls did not
exactly agree with the list Of votes regis.
tered by the clerks, it was. concluded ON
all hands that there was cheating some~
where around the board. Hatch, the
Democratic candidate for the Legislature,

jokes. has taken steps to contest LIE cleo

The LEG1snATURE.-The Legislature of
Virginia metin Richmond on Monday last.
The'uumber Of Important public questions
which it viii have, to act upon, makes the
present very important session. Much
of the future prosperity of the State will
depend upon the action of the present
Legislature. The finances and internal
improvements of the State have to be ar
ranged for the next two years ; the Bank
ing question is to be settled which. to-
gcther with other important matters; will
require the. mature deliberation Of that
body. Each of these: questions are SO
closely connected, and so linked with The
prosperity of our Commonwealth, that a
single false step may plunge us into. diff
ficulties that. will require years to over
come. Fortunately for the State, the pre-
sent Legislature embraces a number Of
men of high order Of talent. and We con-
fdently expect that such action. will be
taken as will rebound to the credit of the
Legislature and honor of the Common
wealth.
We shall keep our readers advised of
all transactions Of interest in that body,
as we'll as the effect and bearing Of the
measures proposed or passed.
