Mr.. Simon WOLF respectable citi-
zen of Washington county, Pa, who,
like thousands of other honest people,
was entrapped into the Know Nothing
Order by its fair promises and abound
ing pretences, thus gives his expe-
renee of the affair:
I have said I had never been much
of politician; but I had long since
become disguised with what / con-
sidered, the corruption Of the old po-
litical parties, and when, during the
last season, ACKNOWLEDGMENT" was
introduced among us, with its promi-
lsesof reformation, and the high hopes
its leaders held out, that a new party
was forming to stem the tide of cor
ruption and correct the abuses and
reform the evils which so long held
rule in high places, / was delighted
with the idea, and made the inquiry of
some who pretended to understand
the principles and objects Of the new
association. l was assured that an
Gent abuses should be corrected; that
the new party was based on pure and
honorable principles; and that our
government would be carried back to
THE measures which ruled the admin
istration of Gen. Washington. I'm
der such representations l became a
member, and 4 gave the organization q
ffuN and thorough investigation; AND
Z NOW DECLARE THAT IN A
LIFE OF SIXTY YEARS, I HAVE
NEVER FOUND IN PRIVATE

FALSEHOOD AND CORRUP-
TION AS | FOUND IN THESELF-

Matters in Kansas.

Two separate elections for men,
Der Of Congress from Kansas have re-
Gently taken place. The Congress-
ional election as directed by the
Territorial Legislature, was held on
the LIST of October, when Whitfield
the pro-slavery candidate, received D.
5O4 votes out of 2,540 pollea-the
remaining So being cast for Reeder.
OF the above number of votes it is
alleged that not more than 900 were
cast by residents of the Territory
the balance being thrown by an or
ganized party from Missouri. The
Free State inhabitants accordingly
called for another election, and on
the 9th Of October Reeder is said to
have been triumphanily victorious.
The result is that the seat of the del
egate from Kansas will be contested
before the House, when sectional
agitators will be afforded an oppor-
tunity to launch bitter denunciatlons
at each other to their hearts con-
tent. There is now every indication
of a stormy session, and it only
remains for the conservative press
to watch its progress, and warn the
people against its evil effects. Never
were The services of faithful and up
right journalists more needed, and new
er has there been time when a firm
