in favor Of Slavery. The charge is utterly
without foundation, and is made for the bas
est and foulest Of all purposes-to cover his
own Hypocrisy and inconsistency. The Ter
ritorial election was carried in favor Of sla-
very, by the Missouri Democratic slare-hoI-
ders, at the head of whom stands Senator
AtehisOn, late President Of the United
States Senate. He is one of our neighbor's
favorte democratic leaders, a Sag NIGHTS.
He is not Know Nothing ;he hates them;
lie spurns them; he "spits upon Mem"-I
He organized immense portions of Nilsson
rians, and had them taken into Kansas, TO
vote our neig6Jor's ticket He paid their
expenses; he headed them; lie lead them
on, and was the chief captain of the outra-
ges in that territory. His colaborers in this
infamy, were just such men as our neigh.
Dor in some respects, in others much more
honest; for they professed nothing but sla-
very and they voted it, whilst our neighbor
Processes freedom, but takes precious good
care always 10 vote on the side of slavery
There is not one syllable Of truth in our
ueighbor's assertion that the Know Moth
ings are responsible for the result of the
election in Kansas.
But in addition to this, we have further
proof of the falsily of our consistent neigh
boris statement. The Kansas papers state
positipely that the Rnov NotIings poted
tie Free State ticket We would consider
this sufficient if there were not another
word. When they deny such statements,
we consider all cavil at an end. Our neigh
Dor says the Know Nothings did it, the
Kansas papers say, the Know Nothings are
for free territory. Which is likely to know
the best, and which is most likely TO tell
the truth?
Our neighbor copies what purports to be
an extract from the Louisville Journal,
showing that the Know Notbings, entertain
slavery sentiments. Whether the Journal
ever published such an article is doubtful,
certainly IFS appearance in our neighbor's
paper creates doubt in our mind But it
makes no difference, for the reason that it
is false, and the whole history of this order
proves it. Show US a single election where
they voted for dough-fa faces for any Office
There is not such place in all the free
States, and we defy our neighbOr to show
it. Always on the side of freedom, they
have carried every free State in the Union
and would have carried the Territory of
Kansas, had it not been for such freedom

by lip service-practicel ACTION! AC-

Dor. You have made assertions; can't you
prove at leas! one of them,-just one-it
would show that you had little founda-

elected? Parade their names, neigbbOr.
Tell US the States in which they were elec-
ted. Back up your assertions, else your
friends, fyou have any, will really believe
that you are not worthy OF credence. Tell
US, oh tell US! who are the representatives
they have elected? or The county officers?
Give us something besides bald assertions,
and quotations, or pretended extracts from
pro-slavery papers. Who are the United
States Senators they have elected? You
certainly will not charge them with electing

Neigbbor. the whole evidence is against
you, and you had better give it up, and save
your credit; and enter into partnership with
Uncomatibus, alias the trader in Swamp
lands; by you making the assertions and he
swearing for you, there is a possibility, a
bare possibility, that you may gull some
body.
Our neighbOr makes one more assertion
in bis article baseless as all ihe rest. He
says the foreigners are all abolitionists. 1t
may be so, but our impression is. that on
this poin: it is a little mired They may
profess anti-slayery sentiments, but when it
comes to voting nine tenths ofthem are the
same kind of anti slavery men as our neigh

If any man has any doubts as to how
and by whom the Kansas election was car
ried, let him read the Kansas papers. He
will there find that our neighbor's friend,
Senator Atchison, took fire Hundred Mis-
souri, Democrats TO one poll, four hundred
10 another, and sic hundred to another and
so on through the Territory, until he had
