GENERAL CAss Know NOTHING Upon
the organization of the Kye- Kye Lodge in this
place, some six months. one of the arguments
used to draw in the unsuspecting, and to give
to the midnight providers the sanction of great
names, was that Gen. Cass was member of
the Secret Order The assertion was promptly
and decidedly denied by the Democratic papers
at that time, and also by many individuals in
this State, who were personally acquainted
with the General. Since then this Eye
lie, manufactured for Kye-Eye purposes, has
rested in peace, antil about a week ago, the
Marysville Herald revamped, reburnished,
and probably with the same hope and purpose
with which it was originally invented. We
have been in regular receipt of Detroit papers,
and confidently believe that, if Gen Cass had
the last thirty years, and which had, IN turn
heaped innumerable honors upon him, his
name would have been blazoned forth by the
.AdUertiser as a convert to Kye Eyesm, and
ucHouuCeu by lHo rec IJcSS us IL IeueSaue
The Herald as authority, refers to the Ameri-
can Citizen, published at Jackson in Michigan
That Kye-Eye paper like the Citizen should
be as unprincipled in inventing tales, and as
reckless in publishing them as the Herald and
other Kye-Eye Papers, we can well believe,
but we should be very loath to believe that
Gen. Cass had abandoned his party ,and joined
the Secret Order on the word of a Kye Eye
In fact, we could not do it. We should require
some better evidence to convince our judg-
ment. And the same evidence that convinced
us, that Gen. Cass has become political rene
gade, and for such creed as Kye- Kyeism
presents, would at the same time convince us,
that he was in the situation of the editor of
the Herald, sinking beneath the weight of
years. and in the commencement of his dotage
We should entertain no hard feelings toward
them, for their former devotion to Democratic
principles, through their long and politically
excited lives, and their arduous labors in be-
half of those principles, would forbid it. But
we should review with pride their past lives,
and over their present action, being painfully
conscious of what prompted it, would draw a
vail of charity and forgetfulness, and exclaim
with sigh, and perhaps with tear, Poor old
men"

DEAR RECORD The week last past has
been the most exciting in political point of
view, we have had in this city. and from ap-
pearances the excitement is but commencing.
We have two Democratic Conventions, one for
nominating Legislative ticket, and the other
County officers only The Democracy have
now the strongest ticket before the people, that
has ever before been presented to them, par
ticularly their nominations for the State Sen
ate, W. J. Shaw, and Frank Tiltord.
l am sorry to say, that that very improper
practice, betting on election results, is too
much INDUCED in One hundred and fifty to
Sl00, is freely offered to day, that the Demo-
Gratis elect both their nominees FOR Senators,
and no takers, although the contest amongst
the Democrats for some of the County nomi-
nations was close. Yet, never were they more
united than they are to-day. The Know
Nothings have nominated one strong man,
their nominee for Sheriff; that is the only re-
spectacle nomination they have made. Their
nominations for Assemblymen, are men Of
straw, and to use the language of one of their
delegates to the Sacramento X. N. Convention,
used, when he heard the nominations, ''they
have completely damned themselves" Two
of their candidates were openly denounced
last night at the Young Mems Whig Club, as
the quintessence of atheism and abolitionism.
Since the Wings in this County have organized
their Club, only two days since, SO members
left the 1865 Lodge of X. N IS the day previous
10 its organization, and have joined the Old
Banner. The Club had very large and en-
thusiastc meeting last evening to receive the
nominated a strong ticket, headed by Hon.
Edward Stanley, and Col. E. D. Baker, for
State Senators, either of whom is a whole
team. Their meeting last evening was inter
rupted by Wing Know Nothing named H. P
James, who arowing himself Know Nothing,
insisted to address the meeting. The meeting
three times refused to hear him if be did not
give in his allegiance to the Wing party. In
the alteration the lie was given to a Wing by
a Know Nothing, the Whig pitched into him
and scene that battles description ensued, in
! two minutes the Wings were master of the
field, and the meeting reorganized and pro-
ceeIat-d
In your calculations Of election returns,
San Francisco County may be reG.-,oned 2ooo
majority for Civil and Religious Liberty. The
speech of those brave patriots, Hon. Edward
Stanley, Hon. E. D. Baker, and Calhoun Ben
ham, last evening fell like bombshell on the
recreant Wing Know Nothings.
