Nunnery Committee that visited Roxbury. and
who, by his vulgarity, his beastliness, and his vo-
luptuous Disguised and revolted the moral
sense of this whole nation, is Know-nothng.
All of his infamous associates onthat committee
are Know nothings.
The Legislature that appointed that committee
is Know nothing Legislature and rank aud
apOioed ABOLITION Legislature. This is the same
infamous body that lately passed the abolition
notification bill, on which we have hitherto
commented.
The New Hampshire Legislature is Know
nothing, Abolition Legislature, also. Senator
Hale, who has been long known to be an abol-
ton leader, will no doubt be elected by the New
Hampshire Legislature to the United States
Senate.
Connecticut is thoroughly abolitionzed and as
thoroughly Know -nothngized.
In these States, Whiggery, Know. nothingism,
and Abolitionism, go hand in hand.
In every Northern State in which Know moth
ingism has prevailed, it has elected Aboli,ioniss
and Freesolers. In no instance has il elected
| sound conservative men.
Know nothingism is everywhere allied with all
the isms. 1t is against slavery and for every CON
cevable ISM
Ii violates the Constitution of the United States
and the Constitution and bill of rights Of every
State. 1t denies the rights of conscience and the
freedom of religion-both of which are guaran-
tied by the Federal and all the State Constitu-
| tions and bills of rights.
| II is much violation of those sacred rights
and much an invasion of the charter of human
| liberty to prescribe sect and one form of re-
| ligon, us to prescribe one sect and one form Of
religion.
Its course has been marked by indecency,
fraud, violence, and lawlessness The scenes at
Roxbury, the mobs at Chicago, the destruction of
the ballotbox at Cincinnati, the late disgraceful
riot at Louisville all attest the truth of this asser-
ton.
Is Virginia prepared to welcome secret polit
cal order, with so suspicious origin, and whose
progress is marked by all that is detestable;
| This Order threatens to subvert all the cherish
ed principles and ancient customs that have giver
| to Virginia the influence she possesses Will the
sons of the old ''mother Of States submit Il
such humiliation
Thursday next will decide the fate Of this new
Order in Virginia, and every patriot heart
throbs with anxious solicitude in view of the great
OCCASION The Democratic party throughout the
United States expects Virginia TO do her duty
She will, we believe. Should it be her proud
destiny to drive back the tide Of fanatcism that
is sweeping over the country, then, indeed, will
her ancient glory be crowned with a new lustre.

~ If the Democrats of Virginia could but
realize the depth, the extent and the intensity Of
the interest felt throughout the United States in
the success of the Democratic ticket, they would
work with will, an energy, and persistency,
that would force victory. They would turn out
in all their cities, wards, counties, neighborhoods
and villages, and persuade every voter to attend
the polls They would provide conveyances for
those who, in consequence of sickness, distance,
or poverty, would be otherwise unable TO attend
Every man who has particle of influence ought
to exercise it. But few hours remain for work ;

A colorcd man by the name Of Ralph Nelson,
who owns a small farm on the line Of the Sea-
board road, few miles beyond Suffolk, in dig
ging well near his house some time since, nj the
depth Of 49, feet struck upon spout Of water,
which commenced filing the well very rapidly
so much 50 that he was compelled TO make a
sudden exodus TO avoid drowning. The water,
after filling the WE'LL ran over the sides, and soon
inundated the premises all around. He was COM
polled 10 dig ditch TO turn the water of, and il
has since continued 10 run.
Flo examined and tasted the water and found,
instead Of tho pure fluid he had expected TO get,
that the water was possessed Of mineral proper
ties. Having bottled some Of IL, he carried il
down 10 DIR. Robert III Webb, Of Suffolk and
DIR. Webb, thinking il worthy of test, transmit
ted il to Messrs. NJ. a. Santos < Son. Of our city,
who arc well known experienced chemists.
These gentlemen have Analysed tho specimen,
and pronounce the water TO be fine chalybeate
containing alum. It's ingredients are: alum, po-
tassa, iron, magnesa, phosphates, lime, and
azotised organic matter.
They think the water valuable, and worthy OF
being brought into the market
IL is remarkable fact that Professor Rogers
OF the University Of Virginia, stated some time
since, that the mineral waters Of the mountains
would find an exit in the lower country. If this
discovery, and that of the Jordon = Spring this
side of Suffolk, should prove a verifcation Of so
important geological theory, II is still more re-
markable that these two springs, only Is miles
apart, should possess respectively the properties
Of the White Sulphur water and the Alum water
as distinctly as those famous springs in the noun
tains Of the State maintain their different char
actcrstics. Verify Suffolk is blessed; her right
hand offers US the glory Of Greenbrier, and her
lefl the healing influences Of Bath No wonder
we thought highly Of our ncighboring town when
we were last there. -.Norf0H (Va.) Argus.

Extraordinary Case OF Extradition.

The Boston Daily .9drertiSer, in noticing the
departure of the packet ship Daniel Webster
from that port for Liverpool, with large mum
Der Of passengers, many Of them on tours Of
pleasure and recreation in the Old World during
the summer months, records the following case
which shows to what extremes intolerance leads /:
/" Among the crowd Of human beings on board
that proud vessel was one poor woman, with an
infant daughter Her passage and that Of her
child were paid by the rich and powerful Com
monwealth of Massachusetts. She left our free
and happy shores, unwilling and reluctant. She
went away against her own free will, con-
strained by force of the civil authorities Of the
State. Her cries, as she begged not TO be thus
cruelty banshed, were, we are told most piteous,
and such as TO cause the accidental witnesses Of
the scene 10 burn with indignation.
Z" This offence Of this unfortunate woman, for
which she was thus violently and ignominiously
expelled from Massachusetts,, was the fact that
she was born in Ireland, and is called PAuPER
Her infant daughter, who unconsciously shares
her mothers sad fate, is a native Of the Com
monwealth Of Massachusetts but she too par
takes Of that hard lot of poverty which il has
reserved for massachusetts TO make crime, and
a crime which Massachusetts Furnishes as no
other crime is punished in America by Danish
ment-banishment from ones native land"
The name Of the unfortunate woman Is MARY
which she is thus cruelty shipped off is as fol-
lows
" II puts il in the power Of any justice Of the
peace 70 send any man whom he may adiudge to
be State pauper out Of the country, and 10 any
other country where he may decide that the man
belongs, and he may deliver him up for that pur-
pose TO any constable or 'any other person
This power includes lunatics as we'll MS tho sane
people, and il may be exercised whether the
pauper consents or not. The Justice is the sole
Judge of the law and Of the facts. There is no
trial by jury, and no appeal nor can the habeas
corpus, even if these wretched people could avail
themselves Of il, be Of any use, since the Justice
is, by law, constituted sole judge Of law and
fact =
The fugitive-slave law, about which the Mas.
sachusetts Legislature is rendering itself 50 SUI
premely ridiculous, contains no such harsh and
unfeeling provisions as the above.
The Boston .9duertiser says "T'he treasury
Of the United States bore the expense Of tho rem.
dition Of Anthony Burns. The treasury Of Mas
sachusetts paid for the rendition Of Mary Will

Authorship.

American authors are not so poor as they have
been thought TO be; nor does il by any means APP
pear that American authorship is not a rernune-
rative profession, If such IL may be called. Ir-
ving-the genial, quaint, and numerous Irving
lives cozily in "Wolfert's Roost" on the noble
Hudson, and possesses fortune from his wr-
tings Cooper also derived large fortune from
his books, which now yields a more than ample
support for his family. Bancroft possesses an
ample fortune, great portion of which be rea-
lized from the sale of his History Of the United
States. Emerson, the prince OF essayists, has
realized an ample competency from his writings
LonQfellow derives more than ample support
from tho sale Of bis works. Ills poems, in two
volumes, are selling very rapidly, and alone afford
him handsome competency. Bryant-confess-
eddy at the head Of American poots-has not rea-
lized competency from his poems. desirable
edition Of his poems was not issued till the be-
gnnidg Of the present year, and probably from
that cause sales have been somewhat restricted
The present edition is issued in a very creditable
style, by the Messrs. Appleton; they have not,
however, as great facilities as Messrs Ticknor
& Fields for issuing poetical works. We have
reason TO believe that the New York Evening
Post affords Mr.. Bryant competency. which he
certainly appears to enjoy in beautiful cottage
in the pleasant village of Rosyn, l.. l. ID. G..
Mitchell has realized quite sum from his wr-
tnps--of which his "Reyeries Of Bachelor"
have sold the best His "Fudge Doings" are
experiencing slow sale. Nathaniel Hawthorne
has received handsome returns from his writings,
as has Haeck. Bayard Taylor has turned his
literary labors TO good pecuniary account, and,
il is said, cleared six thousand dollars during the
past winter at lecturng. The Misses Warner
have realized several thousand dollars from the
sale Of Wide Wide World, Queechey, Dollars
