Two Sides to that Question.

The Union and american publishes speech
of Senator Wilson delivered in the State Ooun-
Gil of Massachusetts, called subsequent to the
Philadelphia Convention, prefaced by the fol-
lowing comments:
Let those who have lingering hope of the ma.
tionality of Know Nothingism read the following
The Grand Council of Massachusetts, met al Boston
on the Goth ult They approved by a vote nearly
unanimous the conduct Of the seceders from the
National Council.
We say ''let those who have lingering hope
of the nationality of Know Nothingism" in
Massachusetts,, even, be of good cheer We
The Rochester american, of a late date, says
there has been split among the Massachusetts,
seceders. The action of the American State
Convention at Boston recently, has produced
great dissatisfaction among the boilers from
the Philadelphia Convention. That action
was against fusion, repudiating the grand "Re-
publican Movement" and for the American
doctrines az maintained by Americans every
where. They who wanted to blow the Ameri-
can party UP, and build on its ruins Seward
fusion party, were displeased OF this sort is
the Springfield Republican, from which we
quote:
The action of the Know Nothing State Council
which met ut Boston on Tbursday-as reported to
us by telegrlph-was altogether untrue TO the de-
mands Of the time, and inadequate TO the accom-
plishment of what We believe the strong desires
of the great body Of the people OF Massachusetts,.
The delegates to Philadelphia we're but nominally
sustained. The spirit and purpose with which those
delegates left Philadelphia have been "spit upon"
by the State Council.
republican fusion is practically denied. The
State Council says il must be through and by its
organization and with its peculiar Native American
features accompanying. Will not the people arise
and say il shall be ovsr that organization? They
do not want Know Nothingism-they want fusion
of all who are willing TO act together against slavery
aggression They want no other test than this;
and we believe they viii vindcate their purposes
in this respect 10 spite of the narrow aud selfish
action at Boston, on Thursday. The hummery and
iIliberalty OF the Know Nothing organization have
been tolerated for their supposed indirect benefits
but when these are denied, the hand that developed
the monster viii itself strange IL.
There is good ground for hoping that large
portion of the Americans Of Massachusetts
will yet b. found on common ground with
their brethren Of the other States.
In proof that we MAY yet cherish reasonoie
well-founded ''hope" of the nationality Of tbs
American party, even in Massachusetts,, WI

ROME, Smith county, June 10, 1855.
Mr.. EDITOR Il read in the last issue of your
admirable journal, with no small degree of grati6
cation and pleasure, an editorial structure upon Mr.
A. o. P. Nicholson and his political course of con-
duct. OF all public men in the State of Tennessee,
he is the most vulnerable, and is the last man on
earth to reproach others for alleged improper mo-
tives or a want Of consistency in political action
His base treachery to Hugh Lawson White, the
great Cato Of his times and the brightest star that
ever Illuminated the political theatre of Tennessee,
is yettfesh in the remembrance of an indignant
and outraged people. He claims the appeilation of
an Union Democrat, and who was it but this pam.

der came out in a flaming denunciation against the
repeal of the Missouri restriction, and another in
rapid succession making that repeal test Of dem
ocratic fealty. In one issue he quotes the Van
Buren, favor, in another the south side democrats,
and in return receives the merited scorn and con-
tempt of both. He is either fit subject for the
Lunstic Asylum inveterate knave, and has

Notwithstanding that Pierce has emissares stationed
around 10 buy of members of the American move
ment, it win bear down in its resstless tread, and
bury in oblivion these abominable enemies of the
country.
Our talented and accomplished candidate Cor
State Senator, Col PICKETT, is working like Tro-
Jan for the American ticket and will beat his oppO-
nent 10 this county, Mr.. Head, 1000 votes. The
utmost harmony prevails. There were a few per-
sonal fckerings at Rome the other day, but all is
now well have been in conference and consulta-
ton with gentlemen of intelligence from all parts Of
the county, and can assure you that there never
was before such a stampede, and such glowing
prospects Of success.
wish we had two or three more such speeches
as Gen ZoIcofer's. The one published alone en-
titles him to the Appeation Of a statesman. His
pyramid of irrefragble facts, his powerful logical
augmentation, his diversified and accurate infor-
nation, and his devoted patriotism, command my
admiration, and meet with my highest respect.
We are all grateful and pleased at your bold,
manly and patriotic defence of our principles, and
whatever may be our fate, VIC will never cease to
feel grateful. ESTRAMADURA.

FEE We thank our Smith county cores
pendent for his kind and complimentary Ian
language towards ourselves. Such high aPpre-
citation of our humble but earnest efforts in be-
half of tie great American cause, goes far to
compensate for the wearying, exhausting labor
of an exciting and protracted canvass. We
could wish he had couched some portions of
his letter in reference to Others in mider terms,
but as he is himself gentleman of experience
in political discussions, and fully acquainted
with the scope and bearing of his remarks, we
do not feel at liberty to withhold it from pub
lication.

The Discussion at JacksbOrough-The white
Basis'-Read!


Citizens of Tennessee, American patriots of
every name and class read the authenticated
statement ''to the public" of the discussion
between Gentry and Johnson, at Jacksborough,
on the white Basis" doctrine. See the rep
rehensible efforts of Gov. johnson to stir up
antagonistic feelings of jealousy and strife, be-
tween the rich and the poor, between different
localities and divisions Of the State, and all to
maintain demagoguical proposition of most
dangerous and alarming tendency, at war with
q vital principle of the Federal Constitution,
and subversive Of the uniform policy of this
State in all past time. Read, patriotic men of
all classes, conditions and localities, read and
reAect-observe the insidiously dangerous i'm
port of Gov. Johnson's remarks-and then say
at the ballot box of your country, if in your
hearts you wish to have such man to be Chief
Magistrate of Tennessee!
