The know-nothing organs here, fortunately for
Us, who have so many of them to contend with,

without putting US omuch effort A case in point
occurs to US:
We have prin' ed the first two degrees in know

racy. We know them, therefore, to be authentic
and reliable. The k. ms. dodge this expose, and
abuse US prodigiously for the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

use it. ~
So far so good
But what better is the True Whig2 That paper
prints what it calls the third degree and, singular
ly enough, condemns us for not printing it like
wiseI Thus we are condemned for printing the
first two degrees and for not printing the third
And that, too, by paper which has not printed
the first two degrees, but prints the third
Now here is q double inconsistency, which we
should like to see the True Wing attempt to re-
concile:

THE AMERICAN PARTY

OF course our good patriots would not seek to
delude the democracy Of the nation-the party
calling themselves the American party. Who COM
pose that party, and where did they come fromi
SIT The same party who. opposed the purchase Of
Florida from Spainy .,
Lsd the same party that opposed the purchase of
the Louisiana Territory? Ee-,- .--5 ''-''
Sit the same party that opposed the late war
with Great Britain, and whose members plotted
treason at Hartford, and burned blue lights to sig
nalze the enemy's vesselsS
is 1t the same party who opposed the late war
with Mexico. and who quarrelIed with the admin
istration for that glorious wal?
Is 1t the same party who always rejoice at the
success of the abolition and fusion party at the
democratsp
! Lit the same party who justified and approved
of the butcherirg of Crittenden and his men, who
were taken on the high seas and butchered by the
Cubans, and called them pirates?
/ Is This the same party whose organs now excuse
the conduct of Spain, in firing into our vessels on
the high seas2
4 these are part OF the goods and chattels, lands
and tenements, of this American party, but
srs, if there are any Americans Foreigners, who
would not go for Americans ruling America, they
would be indeed too low to kill; but let this new
party show man who is not an American in heart
and practice. 1t is only deep and dark scheme to
defeat the democracy, and fasten on the country
the old alien and sedton law of the federaliss Of
1898. This is the party that Americans claim for
themselves. Is not such thingpreposterous, and
an utter absurdity? So much for the American
party. - -s
Look back at the position of this party during
the ffy-seven years past and look at all who have
opposed the nation in all great measures. Do for
eign citizens ever resist and nulify law of Con-
gress2 Did know-nothing Massachuset is do this?

Monty CORPORATIONS AND THAR ENPLoYERs.-
We have seen statement in one of our New York
exchanges, which goes to show how it has become
the fashion of the times TO make Incorporated or
chartered companies the instruments OF accumulate
ing individual wealth. There are a couple Of
steamship companies in New York, styled the Pa
c;fic Mail and Nicarauga Transit Company, both Of
them actually losing money, although there is bus
ness enough for both The stockholders lose mo-
ney, but the managers and employees are growing
rich. The cause of this instruction and sacrifice
of private capital is plain enough. The policy pur-
sued, is to give TO the manager, superintendent,
agents, etc. who have no stock or other pecunisry
interest in the company, perqulsites bonuses and
commissions on the gross business and not on the
net profits Of the concern. These commissions are
represented to be immense, and particulars CIV
en- to show how corporations are feeced by their
employees. We will give q few facts from the re-
port of the Committee of Investigation OF the Pa.
cic Mail Company, on the causes Of the failure Of
dividends for some two years.
The house of William H. Aspinwall received
S64, 1928 for nineteen months, or over fifty thou
and dollars year commissions from all sources
ct home and abroad. The same house received
S79, 1872 during the same nineteen months for their
agency at New York, being commissions on ad-
vances. Included in the charge was the sum of
S15500, merely for collecting marine losses from
the under writers during the above period.
In the case of the Nicarauga Transit Company,
there were facts elected equally extraordinary.
The sums paid to agents, counsel and other iunc-
tionares were in the tens and filtes of thousands
per annum, and it was shown that the San Fran
cisco Agent of the Company received an income of
one hundred thousand collars per annum from
corporation that was not able to declare dividends
to its stockholders. Itrequires Solomon to dis
Germ a reason for the depreciation of the stock and
securities Of companies conducted alter such lash
