What Isl knOw-Netbing Triumph!
The New York Times, speaking
Of the k. MS: Of New York, declares
as follows:
"All the know nothing stump
speakers have insisted their princi-
pies on this subject, of slavery
were Identical with those of the Re-
publicans, aud that they could not
vote for King and Mann, because
they had voted for the annexation
Of Texas, and were not, therefore,
reliable on the Free-soil issue"
These are the Sound men, OF
whom southern know nothings tell
Us!
The fact that the know nothing
party of N. York refused to fuse
entirely with the black republicans;
has been a source of great joy to
Southern know nothings. But when
when their organs publish this facty
they wholly neglect to let their read
ers see what the know nothing papers
of New York say about slavery.
Here is an extract from the Elmira
IN. Y. Republican, leading know
nothing sheet: 5rm
"The American party in New York
is nti-Nebraska to the backbone.
1t would be difficult to find a dOzea
members of the order in any one
council who are not. They must and
will move forward In direct line
with their sentiments, absorbing
from the masses such as agree in
principle, and thus grow till no power
shall be able to withstand them.
It is well to have an American heart,
but better to hare northern backbone.
He who in New York is without the
latter, will be easily doubled up and
laid Oh the shelf"

en- seen distorted with cynical smile
when living; and yet, as | bent oyel
the rigid figure, a choking sensation
of grief rose up to unman me, and ]
hid myself in quiet corner to con.
eeal the tears that deemed more fiji
for girlish sorrow.
| A massive silver plate ornamented
the coffin-the heirs had shown all
possible respect to one whose death
would be to them gain; and a line Of
handsome carriages extended as tar as
the eye could reach.
At length, however, the funeral pa
geant was over; and with ill-dissem-
bled impatience, all were collected in
the library to listen while the will was
read. ~ 2
That pale man, with the iron-grey
hair, had never been remarkable for
quicBness; but now, his proceedings
seemed worse than slow, as he lin
gered, half-fondly, over each unim-
portant sentence. I had expected
nothing. and was, therefore, not dis
appointed; but a murmur of angry
surprise showed that / was not alone
in nv apathy. sm
The bulk of the property was left
to found an hospital for INDECENT old
men who were unable to work; while
legacies to such of bis connections as
were at all in need, showed that uncle
Elihu had not forgotten that "charity
begins at home" A certain sum vas
entrusted to my care, for the use of
the poor woman mentioned above; and
in letter to me, where his wishes
were more thoroughly explained, he
said,
TO you, my dear nephew, | leave
but this piece of advice, for you are
not In want of a more substantial leg,
aey; in all the transactions Of life car
ry out the principle of lighting the
match at both ends; and you will
live as Ihave done, to be reyiled by
the rich, and blessed by those of
whom our Saviour has said, 1nasmuch
as we have done it unto the least of
one of these, ye have done it unto

If all the slaves at the South could
be liberated, the number that would
fall to Massachusetts, would be about
one hundred thousand, and the AbO-
litionists there would be the first to
resort to measures for expelling them
from the State. So that Abolitionism
would in the first place, break down
the Union to set the slaves free, and
then pass laws in the different States
of the North excluding them from
the borders of all such States. This
is what we call AbOitionism llustra-
ted.

The Russian NAVY.

1t is a remarkable fact that during
the present war in Europe, which
has already lasted eighteen months,
not. a single naval engagement
worthy of the name has taken place
between a Russian ship or ships of
var and those Of the Allies. AID
yet the Russian navy is or rather
was, very large-far exceeding that
of the United States. This extra
ordinary passivity of the Russian
ships, although said to be well COM
manded and manned, marks the diff
ference between them and the tarnal
Yankees. Had the United States
been in the place Of Russia, there
would have been mauy a bloody con-
flict on the ocean ere this; for, in
spite of blockades, etc., more or less
Of our ships would have got out
during fogs or darkness, and given
good account of themselves before
they returned 1t is in these daring
feats that the Yankees excel more
than any other people. Our mer-
chantmen, too, would have run the
gauntlet as best they might, Instead
of rotting at the wharyes as the
Russian merchantmen DO. But
in the mere matter of passive cour-
age-iacing death and meeting it
no troops surpass the Russians, or
are likely to do SO. Like machines,
they stand where they are placed
until removed 'by death or other

Two colored men, both named
Jones, had a difficulty last week in a
saloon at st. Catharine, G. w. One
of them subsequently started for
home, but the other followed and
stabbed him to the heart in his own
house. He leaned against the wall,
and in few moments expired on the
floor, where his body formed a pillow
for his wife, who was so drunk as to
be totally unconscious Of what had
occurred, and slept upon the carcass
of her murdered husband until MORN

The chronological Journal says,
in sleeping that posture should be
chosen whichis promotive of deep and
full inspiration, because nature rem

bad. The head should rest On a
line with the body.
