One of the Senators.

Gen. Wilson, who obtained an election to
the United States Senate from the Know
Nothing party in Massachusetts,, recently
made speech to the Order" at Brattlebo
ro,' Vermont. On that occasion he told his
hearers:
g He had no sympathy with that narrow,
bieoted, intolerant spirit that would make war
upon a race of men because they happened to
be born In other lands-a dastardiy spirit that
would repel from our shores the men who
sought homes here under our institutions.
Such spirit was anti-Amercan, devilish he
loathed it from the bottom of his heart"
He further said:
(. He regretted to say there were some mem
bers of the american party in favor OF ex.
cIuding, by constitutions. amendments, all
adopted citizens from Office lie deeply de-
plored the action of the Legislature OF Massa-
chusetts in proposing an amendment to the
Constitution embodying this doctrine, lie
hoped gentlemen who had given their votes
for this proposition-a proposition that would
not permit Prof Agassiz, one of the first sci
entific men. of the age, to fill. under State ap-
pointment, an Office even of a scientific char
acter-would see their error and retreat at once
from a position which justice, reason and re-
ligion condemned What little influence he
possessed would be given with hearty good
will to defeat this proposition"
He also declared that the g Know-Noth-
ings" must abandon their secrecy, make open
nominations, and take firm stand against
slavery and its further extension.

The LIQUOR Law!

quarter for the repeal of the inquitous jug

Will be swept out of existence by the popular
voice of next October, no man in his senses
can doubt We have no hesitation in pro-
claiming ourselves In favor of its speedy re-
peal We have always considered Politicd
Temperance a humbug, and we are now fully
satisfied on this point Whilst King. Of
Cambria County, was the avowed candidate
of the Temperance men, he lodged the vote
on this question fearing that it might inter-
fere with his political prospects in future
and many of the men who supported the
measure throughout, drank probably pint
of brandy or whiskey every day they were in
Harrisburg! To suppose that such code
of moyals can result in reform. is perfectly
ridiculous. Whilst corrupt politicians are
using the Temperance Question as mere
holby, the cause itself is perishing for want
of naoral aid. Dealers in liquor. Beer, and
Ale, are nor selling in open violation of the
EQac. and, il temperance laws are not enforced,
what is the use of passing them

A Know Nothing Victory.

The other day the whig papers were rejoi-
cling over the success of g SAM in the whig
city Of Cleveland, Ohio That the people of
the South may know who 81 Sans" friends
were in Cleveland, on what principles he was
successful, and by whom elected, we copy the
following statement from the Cleveland Ex-
press, the Know Nothing organ in that city.
Speaking of the election, it says:
g The Colored population generally votcd
for the american ticket dag before yesterday.
In this they showed good Judgment. and they
will have no occasion to regret their action.
They rejoice seih as in Sau's triumph orer q

better citizens than the Hordes of Catholic

Manufacture of Cider PROM bited.

The Rev. III. LovEJoY, speaking of the late law
passed by the Massachusetts Legislature, on the
subject of liquor, holds the following language:
s.A man who manufactures barrel Of cider, is
fined under this law $50, and imprisonment from
three to six months for the ofense $500 and inn
prsonment for six months for the second ofense,
and 5000! and imprisonment for twelve months
for the third ofense! If You make one gallon of
wine, squeezed grom the eurrants that grow in
your garden, and give away or sell glass of it,
that act entities you to Imprisonment for twelve
months, and this in the old Commonwealth of
Massachusetts, in the year of our Lord, 1851"
There is truth in the above, which cannot
but strike the human mind with peculiar force.
We have often said, the result Of all such laws is
to lead to dangerous extreme, and produce
state of society in this country of the most fearful
character. Although we considered the last Mas
sachusetts Legislature capable of anything, we
scarcely believed a point in legislation would be
reached so supremely ridiculous. Who ever
enactment of law by a sovereign State of this
Union, prohibiting the farmer from making
barrel Of cider Who ever supposed law would
be passed to imprison farmer for six months, if
he dared manufacture barrel of cider2 Is it
any wonder that the common sense of the people
is beginning to revolt at this outrageous hum
buggery2 The people may be called r,in-suck-
ers and sellers, by those whose sense of jus
tice and right has been eaten out by fanaticism
but the time is coming when truth and genuine
morality will prevail, and laws which are but the
result of miserable catering to fanatics shall be
wiped from the statue books.-Dem Ulaioa.
