THE Know NOTHING REvoLUTIoN. In the
numerous little town elections which, within a
few days past have come off in all parts of the
country, we see that the organization of parties
is rapidly narrowing down to a strsggle be-
tween all the remnants or fag ends of the old
parties and factions of the day on the one side
and the Know Nothings on the other. Anoth-
er remarkable feature of these local elections
is this, that in three-fourths of them the new
American party have been victorious. Among
these victories they have carried the village of
Auburn-the headquarters OF, w. II. Seward
AGAINST all his ayailablesforccS, and the Van
Buren, barnburning frecasoiIers combined. In
the South these mysterious Know NotingS
have achieved triumph quite as remarkable.
They have carried the city Of Alexandria, Va,
by large majority, on the heels Of the most
elaborate and learned of all the stump speeches
of Mr.. Wise against this terrible~secret party.
Thus the work goes on. The Know Nothings
have now to contend against old fogy wings
and Seward wings, bunker democrats, Buffalo
democrats, natives, Irish and Germans, Protes-
tlntS and Catholics, abolitionism, secessonisn,
the administration, the spoils, Henry A. Wise,
Capt Ryndcrs, all the Van Burens all the Old
fogies, Forney and the KitchenGabinet,a and yet
the Know Nothings are not only holding their
own, but marching steadily ahead. Thus the
new revolution goes on--Berks CO. Press.

CALLING FOR THE PROOF.

The Roman Catholic Bishop of Louisville
Kentucky, recently publisheda pamphlet bear
ing the title o. ssThe Intolerant spirit of the
Times" in which he attempts to distort and
faisify the oft quoted remark of LAFAYETTE.
that elf ever the liberties of this country are
destroyed, it will be ssby Romish Priests
In view of this high-handed attempt to falsify
the word of a distinguished American citizen
and Observation-Disclosures MoRsE-three
Protestant clergymen of Louisville have pub
lished a card in which they demand of the
Romish Bishop, SHADING, either to authenti-
cate and confirm his statement orretract it as
a forgery. The Presbyterian Herald also de-
nounces this daring forgery in proper terms,
and gives the following extract from letter
from Prof. MORSE, in regard to the saying OF
Lafayette
cit may not be amiss to state that the dec
laration of Lafayette, in the matter in question,
was repeated by him to more than one Ameri-
can. The very last interview which / had
with Lafayette, on the morning of our depar-
ture from Paris, full of his usual concern for
America, he made the same warming; and in a
letter which received from him a few days
after at Hayre, he alluded to the whole subject,
with the hope expressed that | would make
known the real state Of things in Europe to my
countrymen; at the same time charging it up
on me a sacred duty, an American. to
acquaint them with the fears which were en-
ieftalneu py inc lrlehuS oi republican itDeity
In regard to our country, If have labOrcd
with any success to arouse the attention ofmy
countrymen to the danger foreseen by Lafay-
cite, l owe it in great degree to having acted
in conformity TO his often repeated injunc-
tons. SAMUEL +. B. MORSE. =
New York University, Oct. 1896.
With an Intelligent christian, American
public, the assertions of such man as Prof.
Morse will certainly be believed in preference
to the uDauthcnticated declarations of a double
faced foreign jesuit, who acts upon the prin-
ciple that ''the end iustifies the means. .''-Tel-
egraph.

An ADVOCATE OF PIERCE on THE STOOL OF
RErESTANCE.-Thc editor of the New York
Democrat after quoting the Louisville Journal
and the Richmond Enquirer upon the indebt-
ednesS Of politicians to the press, makes his
own reUorseful confession follows
at is not unfrequent that the friendship OF
an editor is the political stock in trade upon
which he draws for every step he takes i'll the
way of fame. Witness for instance,
the tremendous man the press made Of ar.
Pierce during the campaign OF Bis election
We confess that We look back With shame up
on the part we bore in that business during the
four months of that canvass. We wrote Tor a
campaign paper which circulated more than
sixty thousand copies week, that would
make a book of not less than three hundred
folio pages, all proving most cs-arly, that he
was in intellect, genius Of principles aud firm
ness Of character, second Jackson. Our head
almost aches now when we remember the wea-
ry days and nights OF editorial labor in which
we followed him through the battle smoke,
over the plains of Mexico, and erected him in
to tremendous and most irghtfully brave
general, who never did faint from fear under
the blaze and wliZ of the salt-petre and bull
lets Of the enemy. And now to see that bull
rush thing he has turned out to be, bows our
own spirit with shame and regret.''

THE New STATE OF ssCoLUMBIA.' "A bill
has been reported in the California Legislature
TO divide that State, by creating new one, to
be called the estate of Columbia - and to en-
brace all that part of the State south, and in
elusive of the counties of Santa Cruz, Santa
Clara, Tuelunene and Calaveras. A portionof
the present State debt is to be assumed by the
new State on an equitable basis. Its introduc-
tion gave rise to a warm debate. One of the
speakers advocated the creation of three or
four new States, in order that the Pacific
might have a greater influence in Congress-
motion was made to indefinitely postpone
the whole matter, but at last accounts no vote
had been taken.

THEY HAVE THE WILL-SHALL THEY HAVE THE
Power Read the following from the Balti-
more Clipper 1.-THE Catholic clergy in the U.
States profess to be tolerant simply because
they have not the power to be otherwise. They
live in a Protestant community, and they are
compelled to be be cautious. But they cannot
restrain themselves within the bounds Of pru-
dence. They attack our public schools, and
insist upon banishing our Bible. They fear
the spread of information, and would, there
fore, destroy the source of information. Give
them the power, and our country will soon be
reduced to the degraded condition of every
Roman Catholic nation, without single ex-
ception. We would not trust any with power
who would consider his duty to his country in
ferior to that which he owed to forei gn prince
or potentate. The history of the Popes of
Rome is a history of fraud, violence, perjury,
cunning and userpation. Did they claim spir-
itual jurisdiction only, it would be compara-
lively harmless; but they have grasped tempo
raj authority wherever it was to be had,
though the spread OF intelligence, even in It
ally, will soon divest his Holiness of all pow
er, save that of the Head Bishop of the Ro-
man Catholic Church"
The democratic party is still alive.-Geaius.
