The Logic of II.

The Democrat informs its readers that
the ruling principle of Know Nothings Is
that "Americans should govern America. :"
That paper is doing all it can, striking
its best blows, to annibilate the order and
its sentiments. Then where does il stand {:
1t says and promulgates the opposite of
this sentiment, and of course denies that
Americans should govern America. We'll,
let him answer this question, il Americans
should not govern America, who should :?
Our neighbor must necessarily desire
that some other power than the American
people should govern US, and stands out
the ayowed advocate of foreign influence
and supIemacy-there is no escape from
this conclusion Yes rather than have
Americans govern America. be, as it were.

land and calls and beckons TO foreign po-
tentates aud people to come and help him
rule this country. What position for

madness is this? Why there is foul, black
treason in it? Arnold sold US 10 British sol
diers, but these mad politicians would sell

The Traitors:

There is party which claims to love
freedom, yet extends and establishes slave
~ where freedom was. This same party
is so fee in its doctrines that it advocates
free trade in human flesh. This same par
ty denies that Americans should rule in
America, and begs foreign assistance to
disgrace its own country. To the disgrace

Democrat office was locked for the purpose Of
keeping the "bloody Know Nothings" out (use.
less pretext, while there were four genuine ones
inside) that they might undisturbed print tick

turned back to let the conspirators out, but they

I know they have been, and are, as good
citizens, as good Democrats, and in every
respect as worthy men. as ever the editor
of the Democrat or the unknown scoun-
drel who is in league with him can hope to
be, though they should live to the age Of
Mathuseleh. And This wanton publication
of their names is an insult TO them, as well
as stroke at the Democratic party in
Green Greek township. know these men,
aud their standing and influence. They
have both been patrons of The Democrat

would feel like disseminating their patron
age after such treatment, common sense
and self preservation justi6es the act. Il
the editor can't learn to treat bis patrons
decently, they ought to withdraw and lei
the concern wither up. I have no objection
to discussion of Know Nothingism, and
the denunciation of its doctrines and prin-
ciples, but this dragging mems names be-
fore the public and making them subjects
of discussion when they are not public Of

wide departure from editorial propriety-
and the editor who will do SO. even though
it be yourself, (Mr. Journal) ought by
some means to be taught better things.

Our neighbOr complained some two or
three weeks ago of our personal remarks to-
ward him, and gave US pretty severe back
ling thereon, saying also that personal re-
marks Of editors were in direct violation Of a
resolution passed by the late Ohio Editorial
Contention. Our neighbor is very zeal
GUS in preaching, but when he is called up
on to practice his precepts. he'd rather be ex-
cused The last issue Of his highfaluting
sheet contains nothing but falshoods and
personalities. 1t is altogether probable he
has SO long INDUCED in falsehoods and mis-
representations that his conscience has be-
come scared, and he has abandoned the
hope Of salvation, or reform. His case is a
melancholy one; but We think be may yet
reform. We presume ifhe could be induc-
ed to try an honest course he would like it
sufficiently well to follow it up.

sQuatter sovereign1y.

In promulgating the political heresy Of
squatter Sovereignty Cass, Douglas,
Pierce & Co, have opened wide the door
for incalculable mischief They have, with
all the ingenuity and talents, Ond all the
subsidies and influence at the command Of
the President, inslilled into the minds Of
the people the monsIrous doctrine, that we
are bound to receive into the Union any thing
and every thing that applies for admission,
if it pretends to a republican form of gov
ernment. And we are taught and told by
come hot heads, that we have no right to
bar out any people, no matter whether
Turks, Hindoos, Chinese, Pagans, Idola-
tors or Canuibals, it will be unconstitulion-
al and wrong to deny them admission, pro-
vided they have the form of republican
government, or popular election. Through
this door OF popular sovereignty slavery has
entered and spread. and Mormonism With
Its disgusting forms Of theocracy, and its
criminal bigamy, is marching up confident
of admission under the auspices Of the pre-
tended democracy of the day.
The experience of the past two years
proves too surely that when Kansas with its
slavery, and Utah with its bigamy, come
up for admission, we have demagogues and
seryile politicians enough to hold open the
door and shout praises 10 the immaculate
democracy, while slavery and bigamy, two
of the blacklist crimes against God and man,
walk exultingly end with distinction under

The Issue is Made.

Il is no longer a matter Of speculation or
doubt, but fact, that the Nebraska Dem
ocrals. that is the Pierce d Douglas Office
holders, are forming into secret political So
cieties with the Catholic foreigners, all over
the State of Ohio, with view to keep the
ascendency and rule our State.
The object is two fold-First, political
power and plunder Second, the repeal Of
the present liquor law. They swsar to new

lowest, worst, basest passions of the worst
portion Of society. This organization in the
State will be a unit, and powerful The
duty of good citizens is plain. Wake op TO

those letters are genuine. The Democrat has
for weeks been publishing a LOT Of ridiculous
nonsense about Know Nothings which even the
most gullible won't believe, and when the ta-
bles are turned upon the slaveOcracy he pro-
InOunces it all forgery. But it is not forgery but
fact, and JoHNEs himself acknowledges il so.- -
Below will be found Mr.. JoHSEs' letter, and at
the same time he declares them forgenes, says
they were got up TO hoax the editor Of the Bu-
cyrus Journal. 1t W i'll be seen however. before

peaches himself, and besides we bring proof of
their genuinensss. We quote from the Bacy-

ANOTHER LETTER FROM JoHNES.
"JohneS has written letter to the Cleveland
Leader in which he denies the authorship ofthe
letters which fell into our hands and which we
published. But instead of being refutation Of
the first letters, it only serves the more perfect
ly to CONFIRM the whole matter. JOhnes thinks
SOme person sent the letters to the Journal for
the purpose of selling us or boreing him. We
should like TO be sold that way few more times.
We should grow fat in the operation. But here
is the letter copied from the Leaders"

EDS. LEADER: My attention is called to an
article from the Bucyrus Journal, March LIST,
and copied into your paper Of the I'd inst, en-
titled "Sa9 Nchts" embracing three letters
purporting to have been written by me to the
Bucyrus Journal. dated ''Mansield, Feb. l6,"
and "Ashland, Feb. IL" and 'tlS, 1857
The letters thus published are every line Of
them forgeries, and were got up to sell the Bu-
cyrus Journal, or perhaps, TO bore the under
signed. The ''rich devslopements!" are there
fore merest humbug, and ! trust the dignifed
wit Of the enterprise will sufficiently reward the
ingenious author Of the forged letters for his
outlay in such very novel undertaking.
