The result Of these elections, especially in
North Carolina, Kentucky and Tennessee viii
indicate TO very considerable extent the
strength or weakness Of the Know Nothings
in the South. The Virginia election. olorred
with the sbominable and seditious doinys OF
the outside Know Nothing Massachusetts
Legislature, was not fair test. TIE new
party in Kentucky, Tennessee and North
Carolina, since they have cut aloof from
the antisavery wing Of the North. and pro.
claimed their Philadelphia platform, can do
better. Let the American party in the three
States aforesaid remember shat the cohesion of
New Yonk and the campaign Of 1856 may de-
pend very much upon these August 81, ctons
