ed them. The day was all that we could
have wished, had not the rain, which for a
time poured down in torrents somewhat
impaired the general llilarity of the occa.

We noticed, among those who were pres,
ent, Mr.. Preston Pond, the Know Moth
Ign nominee for Congress of this District
1t was understood, by several Democrats
that this standard-bearer of the dark Ian.
ternites wished to discuss the topics of the
day; whereupon, our worthy candidate for
Governor, Immediately rose in his seat and
cordially and courteously announced to
the assemblage that Mr.. Poud should have
a "shoaoing" and that the Democratic nom
lnee for Attorney General, Mr.. Il. w.
Noise, wonld be glad to meet him on these
questions. Mr. p. politely declined the inpi

HOW pEREE CTLY SIN CERE

We call the attention of our anti-Ne-
braska abolition friends in this state, who
spit upon the southern know nothing plat
form SO Indignantly, to the following adj
mission made by Henry Wilson, of Massa-
chusetts, their leader and idol:
Ut acas the aim and desire of the .Massa-
chusetts delegation to acoid the question of
slauery."
This, we understand, was also the aims"
of the New Jersey delegates to the know
nothing convention. The know nothing
press of New Jersey are crying their eyes
out because they did not accomplish this
very desirable "aim." Indeed, the whole
object of the convention was to let every
thing alone--to avoid the avowal of any
principles whatever, except the clap-traps
about Americans ruling America" Uhe
reverse of which never has and never will
EXIST and some terrible high.sounding
words about Pope's bulls and "open BIZ
blesp (Thc Bible would, indeed, be a
sealed book if it was read no oftener than
by know nothings) The whole brood were
willing to say, "Thcre is no north;" thus
admitting all the noise and confusion about
the Nebraska bill was only got up to re-
vive the federal know nothing party and
/ give it foothold for the Offices. This was
the "aim." For this they were willing to
sleep with the slaves and their masters in
the south; to forget the horrors of the slave
traffic for the sake Of getting their fingers
into the treasury, like the Galphinists un-
der the last federal administration. How
very humane, patriotic, and sincere!
BR5@ We learn from the New Orleans
Delta, that OK Senator Footc, late of Miss
issippi, now of California, has connected
himself with the Know Nothing party in
the latter State. This is just what we ex-
pcctcd to hear. Mr. Foote has lost the
confidence and respect of the old parties,
and he attempts to take position in the
new one as matter of selfdelence. He
finds himself in an extremity to which many
gamester has been reduced-one in which
he may win and cannot possible lose by a
"hazard of the die"
The Know Nothings will scarcely add
any thing to their strength by the accession
Of ex-senator Foote. As q politician, he
has been consistent only in Inconsistency
anu suSlSsoiui oHis III acquiring I'LL cpncH-
eral notoriety. 1t is doubtful whether he
can influence single votcrin the Southern
States.
"Here is my note at four months" said
q delinquent boarder to a landlord, an aged
Hibernian.
Cant you give me an endorscr on it?'
asked the landlord. The drawer of the
note answered in the affirmative, and ac-
cordingly went out to look, as he said, "for
a RIDER Afterno great while he returned
and presented to his host the paper, with
the name Of his friend written in large let
ters across the back. The landlord seized
it, and on Observing the outside inscription,
exclaimed, with Hibernian emphasis, an
the name of America and st. Patrick, wasn't
the paper bad enough without this endors-
ment?"
In all kindness we would ask, is not
Know Nothing paper bad enough" with
out the endorsement of ex-senator Footc?--
