KNOW -NOTHINGS IN CALIFORNIA.

The institution of the order Of know nothngs covered
that order with all of corruption has offered
to certain classes of politicians last aud only chance to
revenge their imaginary grie or TO amend their ruined
fortunes There two classes who eager to take
advantage of any opportunity that might enable them to
crafty their feengsone composed of men rendered al
most insane by their dsappotmens the other made des
perae by the breakup of their political connexions.
General Henry S. Foote, late Of Mississippi and of
California is conspicuous representative of the first class
and not at all surprised TO hear that he has en-
banked his hopes upon the reacheous sea of the secret
party His has proved to be like that of many
Others who justly proud of their gifts too often for
get that is essential to the democratic party
and that, however powerful leader may be while he is
honest and sincere he falls to rise the moment he
seeks make his personal grels matter of public
In this age too there many able and upright
menthere is too much intelligence and justice among the
masses-to render the movements of peulant and anb
ous politicians effective they have been in former
days The great democratic army moves on membranes

proach danger 1t is than that "tbose
who not with are against u.s.
Know-nothingsm in California must eventually prove
speculation than whggery AL concerned in it. 1t is
vain attpmpt to liberaze that party in California
have SEEM by eradicatng the religious test when the
base upon which it oters is the and the migrate
idea of hostility the very sentiment upon which Cali
ornia has grown great and powerful 1t would be UNI
natural party pledged against emigration growing
up in State which is the offspring of emigration 1t
would be than unnatural to the people of Cali
ornia closing their doors upon their brethren OF other
nations when all the Of civilized man may point
to that State the surest realization of the pract-
cability Of for selfgovernment General Fooe and
the whg party Of which he has now suddenly become
a member and leader will again realize that the man
and the have not yet appeared who can destroy
the democratic party and least of ALL who can do so by re-
yivng the odous and exploded doctrines that Jefferson
buried ii supposed in oblivion and that no party up
to the present time has had the hardwood to advo

A KNow-NoTnrNG CANDIDATE WANTED

the district of the gallant Stephens Of Georgia know

the persistent efforts have failed in obtaining

THE ACCUSATION OF PERJURY.

The best comment on the mi SCRABBLE attempts Of the
gans of the secret party justify their prescriptions OF
creed and caste by citing the removals OF certain know
nohings by democratic administration is TO be found In
the anatca violence with which they hunt down such Of
their brethren not willing to obey all their COM
mands They not only pursue those who ~ not and cam
join them whether they native or foregn-born
Catholic Protestant but they endishy prosecute and
Islander all who dare leave them Perjury is the ia

rod still held in the heads of all those who

The Philadelphia Sum- the great know-nothing organ Of
