Know-nothingism i. Clvn War.


The Atlanta Inteaigencer gives the following
melancholy account Of a Know nothing mass
meeting, recently held at Gainesville, Georgia
"We call upon the people of Georgia to be
warned in time, and to mark well that Know
nottingham is civil war. As we alghted from
the cars, the very first sight that arrested our at
tention was man stabbed and dripping with
gore--a horrible sight, With our own eyes, while
waiting for the departure of our train, we saw
five rencounters, and we were told by one well
posted on the combats of the day, that there
were at least twenty fights in Cartersvlle We'd
nesday. A poor old fellow, who sang out that
he was a rs Democrat got his quietus by a
blow on the head, and was walked over for four
hours by the crowd like a dead dog. We saw
two men leap from door, one literally wearing
mask of blood and the other with the top Of
his head apparently knocked in. In an instant
a pistol fired, and down dropped Herculean
frame, as dead apparently as powder and lead
could make any living flesh. We have seen much
of our country in all the phases of our society,
from the Roanoke TO the Brazos, but never before
have we witnessed such rage, such painting Tor
a chance to do evil, such lawless and uncurbed
outrages on the peace and lives of men, as We
witnessed Wednesday. Men with guns, men
with drawn swords, with side arms, with blud-
geons, seemed to be possessed by the demon of
slaughter, and TO be raving mad in their pursuit
after blood fY Il
"Dr. Miller asked from the stand, why was
all this violence in these latter days and he
seemed to wish TO turn it TO account for his party
The blame is not with any old political organiza-
ton that exists now, or ever did exist in this
country before. But il springs directly from this
unholy war on men, simply because they dare
to vote their own way, and from this crusade
against religion that thousands Of American
citizens profess. II all comes from the palpable,
stunning fact, that Know-nothingism is civil
war.

The Ohio State Journal gives the following
description Of the farm Of General Worthington,
near Chillicothe:
While in Chillicothe, few days since, we
availcd ourselves Of an opportunity of visiting the
fine farm Of General Wortbington, which is To-
Gated about two miles north Of this city, upon the
high grounds that overlook the beautiful valley
of the Scioto. a.F.e.
This farm contains about seven or eight humid
red acres of the best land in the garden of Ohio,
well supplied with the purest water, and adorned
the choiscst kind, and of every variety, IL TO be
found in the spacions orchards for there are seve-
raj while the grape and tho melon vines that
we're growing luxuriantly on every hand satisfied
us that the General would never suffer for the
want Of friendly visitors during the grape and
melon season. Figs from the land OF Smyrna,
frijoles from the plains of Mexico, and peas from
the scmi-civiized country Of Japan, flourish in
his well cultivated gardens. objects Of curiosity to
the stranger, and OF pride and qualification TO the
well cultivated taste Of the General.
! A large stone mansion built for durability, COM
fort and convenience by his ancestors, the late
1 Governor WcrthiDgton, stands upon the bluff
! from the top Of which may BIO seen country all
/ up and down the winding Scoto, that in our
| humble epinion surpasseth anything that can be
seen this side Of Jordan. ns 1at
Fronting the farm on the east, at the foot Of the
| hill, is lake, constructed by the General him
| self, from a marshy piece Of ground containing
about fifteen acres, which Is now stocked with
/ various kinds Of fish, that await h,s pleasure
| whenever he may choose to have them served up
! at his table.
i A large ice house, built upon the verge Of the
lake, stands conveniently ready to receive, the
frozen liquid into its capacious NAV, whenever
old winter with his hoary locks may choose u
present the offering. From this receptacle Of one
Of the chief Injuries Of simmer, tho General is
enabled to supply the wants of tho people o
Chillicothe during tho hot season. ~
AT convenient distance from the tempting wa
tiers Of this beautiful lake, the milk Of fifty short

snug little sum Of four thousand dollars.
