PROGRESS OF KNOW NoTHINGIsN.

The American Inquisition is making rapid strides
to excel in its monstrous assumptions the worst
days ofthe Spanish Inquistlon. Tie Tra. AHleri-
cln, Know-Nothing organ, says:
1t appears that the Grand Council discovering a
presumptive detection of votes against Daniel Ul-
Manu. as an American candidate, and real one as
regards more than one candidate-the titular Grand
President incudea-upon the local ticket have de-
teTmined upon a summary method of covering their
rejection, by the passage of resolution perfectly
unique at this period of American civil freedom:
Resolved, That the respective Councils under the
jurisdiction Of this Grand Council by their proper
officers hereby instructed and required to with
hold the Term Pass from, and forthwith expel from
the Council, all brothers who did not as aforesaid
fully support the nominations in the last preceding
resolution referred to- ami who refuse to answer as
hereafter required, who shall not offer an excuse
satisfactory to the Council fer such non-suppoIt
and that for that purpose, said officers are fully en-
powered to demand and require OF each member of
his or their Council, that he or they Go declare with
uplted hand, III open Council, for whom he or
they voted at the great November election, and ex-
cuse, if any they have offer, for such nonsupport
aforesaid.
This resolution, should its provisions BE- carried
into effect, may be Justly regarded as the death
blow to Know othingisn, as it is at present or
ring to the title of freeman willing to surrender his
dearest prerOgative-that Of free bsot--into the
keeping Of band ofoflice hunters, elected and de-
feated-ior such are the worthless whose signature.
are appended to the edict-to be dictated unto as
TO whom he shall cast his inherent preference; and
in case OF non compliance to be ANONYMOUSLY ex-
PEELED from the conpanionship Of his fellows for the
exercise Of that Judgment bestowed upon him by
his Creator? Again: are Americans, sons of free
men, to be driven to the polls like herd of cattle,
there to deposit ballots tor hypocrites, knayes or
scouudrels, to them known to be such-men they
individually deride and despise-under the pain of
imperial displeasure?
We, who oppose Romsnism upon the ground Of
its Absolutesm in political matters, and contemn
foreignism for its sectional intolerance, probably
among the last to sucCumb to all Imperialism which
exceeds the broadcast despotism of Russia or Aus
tria. And STILL in the name Of Liberty of Christian
freedom, OF regeneration from slavery, We are com
manded either to lick the feet of our would-be |
masters or to Withdraw from compsnionship with !
our brethren. oh Liberty! what crimes are COM
nittsd in thy name?'

FRANCE.

I OpEsIyG OF TIE French CHAnDEGs.-THE EN-
/ PEEoRs SrEECH.-On Tuesday, the 26th at ons
ei1ck the Emperor opened IN person, at the Pal
acc oC the Tuileries, in the Sale DIES Marechaux
the legislative session Of 1850, and received the
oatLs Of the new members Of the Senate, and
Corps Iegis,aiif TIE throne was placed at the
end OF the room on d dsis into the bay Of the win
dow looking into the garden. On the right of the
throne was placed 4 chair for Prince Jerome Bona
parte, and on the left another for Prince Napoleon
absent on the Emperors service.
The Emperor having taken Lis place in front OF
the throne, having Prince Jerome Napoleon on his
right and Prince Louis-LuCien Bonaparte and
Prince Lucien Nurat on his LETT, the whole OF the
persons being outstanding and uncovered, the Grand
Master o. the Ceremonies after having taken the
order OF his Majesty said Gentlemen, be seat
81" The Emperor then delivered the followi
speech
Messieurs les Senator'S, Messieurs les Deputies:
Since your last meeting, great deeds have been &C
compl.sbcd The appeal which made to the c0un-
try TO defray the expenses Of the war was we'll
responded 70, that the result has surpassed my
hopes In the Baltic as in the Black Sea, our arms
have been victorious. Two great battles have add
ed renown to our standard. The intimacy Of our
relations with England has been brilliantly attest
ed The English Parliament has voted thanks to
our generals ard to our soldiers. A great empire
made young again by the chivalrous sentiments of
its Sovereign has detached itself from the power
which for forty years has menRced the ildepen-
dence Of Europe. The Emperor of Austria has
concluded a treaty-defensive to-day, offensive
perhaps, to.morow-which unies his cause with
that Of France and England
Thus gentlemen, as the war IS prolonged the
number Of our allies increases and the ties already
formed become closer. For what ties are, ia fact
more secure than the names Of victories shared by
the two armies and recalling common glory, the
same anxietes and the same hopes agtsting the
two countries, and the same aims and the same
intentions animatng III Two Governments in al
parts of the globe? Thus the all6nce with Eng
land is not the effect of mere passing interest or
of political expediency, but it is the union of two
powerful nations associated Oh the triumph of
cause in which for more than century their own
greatness the interest of civilization, and the b-
erty of Europe are at the same time Involved.
Join me- then, this solemn occasion, in thanking
here and in the name of France, the Parliament
for its cordial and warm demonstration, ard the
English army and its esteemed chief for their val

CHARLES SUMNER AND KNow-NorHISGisSi 1t is
the usual order of nature that fauaticsm succeeds
fanaticisn one kind Of madness is followed by an
other. Reason having once lost dominion over the
mind it is but natural that the human intellect fly
ofin tangents.
We are not surprised, therefore, to find Charles
Sumner, in his place in the Senate presenting peti
ton OF citizens Of Massachusetts, praying Congress
to impose per captem tax Of not less than$250 on
egrants arriving in this from any foreign country.
A man who has run the guantlet of Abolihonism
to the violation ofhis sacred deliberate oatl is
prepared for whatever viiisiny artul and ambitious
politicians may conserve Abolt onism, one of those
stray waves popular frenzy, upon which the sgta-
tor attempted to ride, having spent its course, he
now mounts another hoping thus to reach the height
of his ambition. 1t is always thus with artful poit-
clans. Not grounded firmly in principle, they are
the sport Of every gale that blows big with hope
and expectation as it rises, but doomed to bitter
disappointment as it subsidies Mr.. SUMNER may
fare as well with Know Nothingism as with Aboi-
tonism they are alike well calculated to serve the
purposes Of day. He and his coadjutors, however,
must remember that 1t is but one Of those passing
waves which occasionally appear in the political
world that its duration is short, that even now it
may be spending its force-Sgvannah Georgian.
