1.-THE MODEL COMMONWEALTH. >

Att large meeting Of the citizens Of Boston, held
nneuil Hall, the following resolution was adopted
ssoesd That the legislature Of 1855 stands without
parallel its shame. Its Inconsistencies gang its
hypocrisy manifest its mmoraes gross while folly and
stupidity seemed be the presiding genas OF many OF its
and enacment that while the intention is manifest
there moral power in their law to inure the aracer
Of those at whom the blow is aimed"
Such is the estimate placed upon the model Common
wealth at home-it owes its shame TO the dominion OF
know -nothingism and abolitonism combined.
WHILST on this subject, copy from the Baltimore Sun
the following remarks OF its correspondent ion which
contain reflections worthy Of attention.

THE PROOF.

The Louisville Journal is taking the lead in attempting
to impress southern with the belief that northern
know-nothingsm sympathzes with the South the sla-
IT seeks accomplish its object of iecer
ton by such statements as the following:
The democratic organs Illinois and Michigan only
assert the American party is slavery party but
that this party which sent the five thousand armed
Mssourans into Kansas carry the elections for the friends
Of slavery The Chicago Times the chief organ of Mr.
Douglas the Detroit Free Press and the Cleveland Plain
Dealer all distinctly charge that the Illegal and violent
ceedngs by which the Kansas elections controlled
projected and carried through by the know nohings"
The Chicago Times exposes the fehood Of the foregoing
follows:
We never said that the nothing party pro-
slavery men, except far abotonsm gives power and
strength slavery On the contrary, say now,
have said repeatedly BEFORE that the know nothing party
Illinois nothing less than vast thoroughly
organized and oath bound association of abotionsts We
say further that there is not single member OF it who
would dare peril professional mercantile interests po
tical prospects, religious membership by asserting that
he would under any circumstances vote to admit Kansas
a slave State-hat he would by word deed, aid in the
of the ngtvesave law in the restoration Of
escaped slave. There is of them who viii dare
that he win vote for any for Office who voted for the
repeal of the Missouri restriction, who viii say
he opposed the fur ther agitation slavery Congress
The Journal therefore, if it wishes to quote author
ity the political sentiments of its allies in Illinois, will
have the kindness quote testimony which has the
additional virtue Of being strictly true
The New York Herald the northern ally Of the Louis
vile Journal in the work of decevng the South asserted
few days ago that the know nohngs in New Jersey
sound and national in their slavery views. We quoted
from two leading knownothng papers of New Jersey to
show that the assertion untrue We add to the proof
the following resolution, adopted by of the know
nothing councils in Trenton, New Jersey:
g Rcsored That friends Of the Union and Of the har-
mony and aternal confidence which should exist between
the several sections Of the country demand that the
OF the reagation OF this dangerous question
the violation by the Nebraska Kansas of the Missouri
Compromise shall be removed; that that time-honored
Compromise shall be reestabhed and observed hereafter
sacredy IL before its uncaedor and wicked vo-
laton that Kansas and Nebraska shall be admitted into the
Union cny free Sateso that good faith, confidence
and harmony between the free and slave States be
stored, and demagogne may learn again dare
disturb them, by their perncous schemes and machna
tions create divisions and discussions among the different
portions Of what should be great united, ndvisibc
brotherhood Of Americana

With the exception Of heavy advance in cotton, the
commercial advices do not differ materially from previous
