TOBACCO CHEWING CLERGYMES

The Observer oflsst week. commenting upon the
letter of the Rev. Rufus E. King to the Black River
Methodist Conference, which appeared recently in
the Evening Post, says:
Il" The letter is suggestive. On the return of our
religious anniversaries it is usual for cergymen to
request their people to throw open their doors for
the entertainment of strangers, reminding them of
the apostolic intimation of the possibility of enter
tanning angels by mistake.
Some Of our people resist the intimation as did
lady in Connecticut at whose door tramping beg
gar called very early one morning and asked for
cider She refused him and ordered him to 90 on.
He ventured to remonstrate aesns. her decision,
and referred her to the command of the Apostle
not to be forgefu to entertsing strangers for some
had thereby entertained angels unswares She said
she was not afraid in this case of losing such pr.
vlege for she never heard that angels were in the
habit of going around begging cider before break
fast
On the same safe ground our ladies' who have the
tobaccopbobia insist that the use of the vile weed
is a conclusive argument against the angelic char
acer Of clergymen or others who would enioy their
hospitslities. Many of these excellent women
have far greater aversion against a chewer of to-
bacco than one who has not taken the teetota
pledge. When the prohibitoiy liquor law shall
have driven the wine-cup out of society," we may
look for grand crusade against tobacco, and it
will require great ingenuity to construct bet
ter argument against chewing tobacco than using
wine.

We see that in various parts of the Union at
tempts are making TO re-organize the whig party,
and to prevent its fusion with, and absorption by

they are for reorganization, a rejuvinstion, and

VIRGINIA,

The know nothings are trying to extract some
comfort from the idea that the democratic majority
in VIRGINIA is reduced. On the contrary, the ma
orty is the largest cast in the State, with Que ex-
ception, IN twenty years Mr. WIsk's msority
may not come quite up to that given Gen. PIERCE
in 1852, but it is much larger than has been given
any other candidate in that State since 1882. In
1910 and ls49, the democratic majority was only
about 600, and at the last election for Governor
but 900. The last Presidential election was net a
true party test in VIRGINIA, Gen. PIERCE having re-
ceived great many wing votes; yet the present
rnainritv will be hnt liffla less HAN dot

MORE MYSTERY ETUCTDATFD

Wien know-nothings fall out, honest politicians
get their rights. As an illustration of this princi-
pie, publish to day an article from Bro,calolg $
Wing, descriptive Of the contest for the know-noth-
ing nomination for Congress in the Knox district
The document let's US into the secret workings Of
the know-nothing machinery, aud is a curiosity. 1t
will be seen that these dear lovers Of pure Protest
antism polled the khow-nothings of one county at
camp-meetiug, on Sunday We have always
told our friends that know-nothingsm would blow
up with the first division Of the offices among the
members 1t looks now as though even the strug-
gle for the nominations would accomplish this good
result

Ga=st'e, wing paper, shows that know-nothug-
ism is far from absorbing the entire whig party in
Kentucky:

sE We feel not the slightest interest in know
ing the author of the statement in the Gazette rea
tive to an Irishmani in Sumner county, about which
there has been some controversy. 1t is rather
new feature, however, when statement is denied,
TO reply by demanding the name of the author of
the denial But this is one of the Ggzette's ways.
We reply, that the editor of the Gazette will be
furnished with the name of the writer of the CON-
munication in this paper, if he wishes it for any
other purpose than to crafty idle curiosity. The
name of the writer for the Gazette is desired for
the purpose of exposing suspected fraud.

eY- In commenting on the New York HsralTs
remarks upon the proceedings OF the Massachusetts
Legislature, the Boston Courier (whig) says:
The Herald knows very little about the politics
Of Massachusetts, but it is right in some of its as
sumptions. The abolition party of Massachusetts
IS the prevailing party in the State. "Know-nsth-
ngism" is the hand maiden of Aboltionsm here.
Whatever Abohtonism resolves, know nothingism
carries into effect The two parties are one SO

NEGRO SUFFRAGE IN New YoRK-We find, in
one of our exchanges, says the Washington Sent-
mel, the following statement Of the vote in the
New York Legislature on the subject of negro
suffrage. 1t is one Of the ugly signs of the evil
times on which we have fallen. Yet the brief
analysis contained in the subjoned extract shows
does every movement in the so-called free States
on the subject of negroes, the soundness of the
Democratic party over all other organizations:
"a proposition to amend the Constitution ofNew
York, so as to allow negroes and Indians to vote
passed the Assembly on the 18th inst, by the fol-
lowing vote:

There were $4,000 colored persons in this State

A ISLANDER.


1t is useless 10 try to keep up with the fasehoods
circulated by the know nohngs in relation to the
democratic party. Some Of them are so mon
strous that they carry their refutaon on their
faces. We had hoped that, of tbs class was re-
port that we were the member OF secret
anti know-nothing society in this place. lhA'
there may be no mistake about this report we
pronounceit unquolifedly false. We are not mem

make this statement without any equivocation or
mental reservation whatever. And they who say
differently say what is untrue.
REMOVAL OF WoRKMEN FROM THE GAsPoRT

II seems impossible to kill know nothing fraud.
It is resuscitated as often as killed Thus, the
port relative to the discharge Of workmen from the
Gosport (Va) Navy Yard has been shown to be q
gross exaggerstion but it is still repeated The
fact as stated by the Richmond Enquirer, is, that
four of the boss mechanics of the yard, who were
know-nothings, and who threatened to discharge
the workrnen under them if they did not vote the
know-nothing ticket, were themselves discharged,
and were served exactly right
- But suppose this statement about removals in
