sournERN KNOW NoTHING,s ARGUMENT.

A SOUTHERN KNOW NOTHINGS ARGUMENT.
The Wilmington North Carolina) Herald, whig
nothing paper contributes its pous aid to msrep
rescnation Commenting upon the late abolition meeting
at Portland, the Herald says:
"ExGovernor Cleveland, of Connecticut, the next
speaker. He was from The democratic party
Hon. b. +. Butler another distinguished democrat in
letter read at the meeting said
al have rejoiced and will rejoice in every demonstra
of the popular sentiment in the free States against the
repeal OF the Missouri Compromise and in favor OF the
of that ordinance OF Freedom The injustice and mi
guilty of that repeal should be forgotten should

Of the territory originally embraced IN from admission into
the Union ercept the character and nth The attributes Of
free States In laborng to accomplish this end the repub-
cans engaged in good work. They have my hearty
sympahies and my best wishes for their success
The editor of the Herald knew Of course that both the
persons alluded to have not acted with the democratic
party nor been recognised democrats since ls4s and
yet in the face Of public and notorious fact he seeks
make the democracy responsible for the present opinions
of Messrs Cleveland and Buter An attempt wully to
pass counterfeit is punishable at law and yet here
wanton attempt to pass counterfeit statement made
by newspaper in the hope that may circulate for truth
It wonder that party which relies upon fables and
sehoods like these should find its spurious coin nailed
the by the people, and its leaders banshed from
power

Cleveland the doctrines in the free States, of nine
enths of the very party with which the Herald is
ciated; and who and acts upon them can
