SPIRIT OF THE PRESS

The Hais quotes Mr.. Beale's opinion of the
Nebraska bill, from speech lately delivered bv
that gentleman:
The results OF the recent elections In yoyins the
aierlts OF the Nebraska bill have been adverse To
the rights OF the South. But that bin is founded
10 constitutional right no backward step can be
taken by US in regard to that measure"
The Whis also notices In every quarter at the
Nofth fresh evidences of abolition hostility to the
Know Nothing movement. 1t ia at loss to con-
ceive why any Southern man, with this fact staring
him In the face, should perslst In giving "aid and
comfort" to the enemies of the South, by uniting
with them In opposing movement which they
describe as tending to repress agitation, to put
down fanaticsnl, and blast the hopes of the aboli
ton party. The Whig has heretofore quoted from
Seward. Greedy, Adams, Weed and q host OF
others, to show that they agree 10 the policy OF
opposing Know Eothingism at ell hazards and to
the last extremity, and now it adduces other evil
dence in the shape OF letter from Hon Edward
Wade, an abolition member of Congress from
Ohio. the sum and substance OF which Ia (the
Wing says that the Know Nothing party is Sou
thern organic aton gotten up extend the institu.
tion of slavery.
The Enquirer, with soms remarks upon the
SHANE of Secrecy" introd duces a letter from
Winchester stating that the members of the late
know Nothing Convention Pit fictitious names on
the hotel register, to prevent recognition. For
instance, Tie writer says, onei registry was "Sam
and eight others !" and there were Joneses and
Smiths without stint To show the Whig compo-
si.ion of the Convention however the letter staies
that among the deleg gates were DIR, VERIFY OF North
ampton, John w. Synle OF Petersburg, John ID.
Imboden Of Staunton, Terrell OF Bath. Cunning.
ham OF Norfolk, and Rdsick of Nsnsemond.
The Penny Post states, by authority that MIR.
Patton accepts, without hesitation Or reservation oil
any sort, the nomination OF the american party for
the Office of Attorney General of Virginia. The
Post also gives Mr.. Petton's for declining
invitations to address the people lie has import
ant law cases on haud which he cannot neglect; he
regards the Office of Attorney General purely a
legal and judicial one, and not in any sense
q political one; and cOnceiyes that it does
exactly comport with the dignity OF such an
Office to aud demagogue for it all over tine
State, "as do for the petty offices of constable
| and deputy sheriff" If, however, a proper occas
sion offers he will seize It, to give full and clear
exposition of his views.

Most of the furniture was saved, and some Of

prevailing at the time, the flames had con-

would have been destroyed. The FIRE has not
