anything TO do with the Organization of what is
known as the @know Nothing or American Par

son was the founder, was military one at Boston

the following circumstances:-Justb before an cleo
ton there two years ago Tor thereabouts) the
leaders Tor one of theml of the foreigners and

the political parties-the candidate for Mayor-
and offered to give hin, the whole foreign and
Catholic vote, provided he would bind himself to
appoint certain individuals to Office, after his cleo
ton. list of whose names and of the offices de-
sired for them, was furnished. The candidate re-
fused to make any such corrupt bargain-and sure
enough, he was beaten by his opponent After
the Inauguration of the successful candidate it
observed that all or nearly all of the persons
whose names were upon the aforesaid list Were
appointed to the offices therein specified Intel
lisence OF these facts spread like wld6re through
the city They were investigated and found to
be true, and resulted in arousing the native Am.
erican sentiment of the Baltimoreans TO fever
heat, and in the birth and organization of the So
called -Krow Nothings."
This statement is vouched for by as reliable
and truthful a gentleman there is in the South
