The "Three Parties -

I i here never was q greater delusion.
There are now but two great parties in
Ihe United States there have ALWAYS
he' n but two; their objects are now
much the same as they always have
been, and such IS they are likely alwa ys
to Continue. The principle Of manhood
which God breathes into the nature of
the infant when he is created livinq
soul, which pronp's him in HIS aspira-
tons for berty ard quail rights, which
inspires him with 4 true ambition and
!ofy patriotism, lays the foundations of
trae consrrva i've dernoc acy. This is
the rock on which the true poll ical
cur h is b lit, nd the ga es of Hell
shall not prev il against it," Democ-
racy is an intuition. and MT lesson.-
1t Is in the heat OF the St lf.r liant
patriot, and moi in the held Of the .che-
mcr and itn.;a or. 1t is the sound Sc ii =
mcnt and nati,c impuls Of the hon. st
sober, brave N n, and t the sinister
'r tcAet and mad fancy of the scheming
d-magogu", or ranting hattie 1t n
emotion, AMI not calculation or mania.
In the United St ties, The rtcogni. e |
pin iples of democracy are the same
everywhere In Min , in l. uisi i'll

siPii, the same rights, .wcrs and lini-
'atlo are ascribad by the Democracy to
government. 1t is no rcfut ton of this
remark t. say that portions OF the "de-
no racy" profess sentiments at war with
the general cre' d for, whenever this is
the case, it proves merely that he dis
sente;s have ''g ne a whoring after false
gods and although Jews, are, in truth,
not of the children Of Israel. This
great homogeneous mass Of ind pendent.
seli-rclying, patriotic men, constitute the
national d macracy Of the United States,
and whosoeveJ is not for US i, against n.
The .natiri-m Of the country, wherever
i; cx;st,-in whatever form il is exhibi
ted--is rlopelled by its natural instincts
to hat democracy, ard to war upon it.

The Herad merely gives utterance
iS own wish when it proclalms the rx-

lists If the North are no new party-thc
Kn " Nothiugs of tne North rally to No
new principle they are merely aiffere /
branches of the same concern The
goods. wares and merchandise in vhich
they deal are all the same al The pro-
duct of the same workshops, They arc

Thr Herald is mistaken in surprising
that "the Know Nothing party, some.
