guard house last night.
Such restitution in young men is not very often
seen and for the credit of humanity, we hope
never to see it again.
Extracts from Correspondence.
| PEsHooK, VA.-Know-Nothings are carrying
everything before them, and Wise, poor fellow,
| little knows his deplorable condition.
BuzzARD's Roosr, ALA.-The order lis quite
fourishng in the most populous parts of this
ty, and it will make the Rip Van Wrinkle stand still
Democracy, which has controlled the affairs of this
State, open their eyes next fall.
EAsroN, PA-We are making preparations for
our spring election, and If " Samive" don't knock
| the props from under the foreign party you can
put me down as no prophet. Your paper is liked
by all that read it. 1t is the only paper out of II
that take, that sit down and read with plea
sure You no doubt have seen Geographic ac-
count of Democratic meeting held here to de-
nounce Major Fry for voting for Cameron The
Democratic portion in favor of the Major were in
a large majority, but (some being members Of
Sans" household) voted down the resolutions by
about 100 to l. The oldlners left, and another
meeting was organized, but no one was driven out
as reported OF course I" Sam" is blamed for all
| the muss. / believe, however, that the largest
! part of the crowd has become acquainted with
him. There are few men calling themselves the
leaders Of the party Democratic) who seem to
think they arc to obeyed by all those who wish to
be known as Democrats but the time has gone
| by when such men can dictate we have the best
and most respectable portion of the community
who are members Of our order, and this fact gals
them severely.
| PUTNAM COUNTY, Val think it is the duty of
every American freeman to lend helping hand
in this great political controversy. The issue is
one that should enlist every American citizen, and
one that viii decide the destinies Of the American
people. Designing politicians viii bring many in
genious arguments to bear against the party, and
will in many instances be successful but their
doom is sealed. Their downfall is inevitable. The
American party viii eventually triumph. God
speed the time
SUMTER COUNTY, GBo.-The great conductor
"Saui" is doing things up brown in these dggins.
The American party will carry the day in our fall
elections, and no mistake. You can put Georgia
down az one.
TARBoRo, N. C.-Thc order is progressing slow
ly but steadily even in old Edgecombe, the bann er
county Of Democracy.
RICHMOND, Kr.--Mr Ellis: You are the man
for us. BY accident picked up one of your
papers and made up my mind to subscribe imme-
diatsly. 1t took me but few moments after sta
ting sour Principlesn to obtain fourteen others.
KNssroN, N. C.-The work goes bravely on in
AZ. L. To-. c. Ill ~ Qt.to
that the people want is light upon the subject !;
they are all alive to the movement, and new re-
cruits are falling into line hourly. ! am Of the
opinion that all the sons of this glorious republic
will cry aloud with joy after they hear the result of
our Congressional election in August next
NELSON COUNTY, va.--Some folks in these dig
gins" (as they only take Democratic papers) make
themselves fools talking against the invincible
der of "Knoy-Nothingsn and as am favorably
disposed towards the order, want to let them hear
facts from our side too, SO wish you to send me
the Organ to --. l hope to be able to give
them a rap over the head and ears and still their
fcrocious tongues, for they seem to want them de-
stroyed. Some say that no man but id
rascal belongs to them,n others that ropes are
too good, they ought to be hung with grapeyines,"
&c. / want to prove them aatural Know-Noth
ings in such assertions Sosx CUSTOMER.
| SHErHxRpsrowN, yA.--Your paper is read here
with pleasure, and is universally regarded as a
very able expositor Of the principles Of the or
ganization, whose cause you have espoused. As
to the prospects Of the American party in this sec
ton Of the Old Dominion, can assure you they
are truly cheering Martial law screws of
party" and all the other modern appliances for
forcing upon the people, one whom they viii not
honor with the chief magstracy Of their State can
not avail against the irresistible current of public
opinion party allegiance has lost all its ancient
power, the tap Of the political drum no more calls
forth scrvile followers ready to do the bidding of
mercenary leaders eager for the spoils Of Office !;
men Of all parties have assumed an allegiance Of a
different nature, allegiance TO country. For any
politician to resist such an undertaking, Is only to
| invite defeat Tho fourth Thursday in May will
prove this assertion far as Virginia ia concerned
BArEsvILLE, VAL am rejoiced to see that an
American party, strong and united, has sprung up,
whose motto is, and viii be, Americans shall
j rule America" The signs of the times strongly
indicate very respectable majority for the Ameri-
cans in the Old Dominion.
PorLAR HILL, vA-There is great demand for
your paper in this county about this time the old
State Democracy and Whigism are melting away
into an American party.
