A Compliment for the American Party

A Compliment for the American Party.
Saturdays Gazette contains ranting
editorial on the subjectof Know Nothing
ism, from the pen of the individual. whoev-
erhe may be, having the BLACKBOARD depart
ment of that sheet in charge. The fol-
lowing is specimen Of it:
"Those who have risen to power or place
through this party Know Nothing] are
mostly VIGOROUSLY incompetent, ignorant
and stupid almost to contempt"
Wonder if the above extract, including
the balance Of the editorial, is the joint pro-
duct of the three ofice-holders who own
that concern, or are we indebted to the fer
tile brain of the Collector of the Port of
Burlington for the precious moroccan? AT
any rate, one thing is certain, you must not
come between the wind and his nobility, ye
IGNORANT and STUPID" Natives!
