A Word TO the Wise.

|. To the ylglant, not to the dormant, the laws
give protection. A maxim older than my lords
Bacon or Coke, and as true as it is DID, 1t is no
less true in politics than it is in the law. We are
reminded of this maxim from certain observations
made by socae Of our nsighbors, who strctob
servers of the signs Of the times, and who say !.
that there may be an effort at our delegate cleo
tions to pack in some Know Nothings amcng
them, and that this Is about to be attempted By
the minions and subninions of Simon Cameron,
the great high priest of Democratic Abolition
Know Nothngsm in Pennsylvania, and who
would embrace al the other isms of the day, if he
were asked, and g had time to ainplify." We arc
led to believe that these things about to be at
tempted by those from whom better might be sex-
pected, but a long experience teaches the vanity
of such expectation.
How these things to b. rcncsliei? The
easiest thing imaginable when taken in time. Let
each borough and township select two delegates,
who are not only untainted by Know Nothingism.

From Northern Mexico.

A correspondent of the Galveston News writes
from Brownsville, under date of the 25th Of
June. From his letter we copy the following
postscript: -
A gentleman from Roma informs me that
Cara crossed the Rio Grande from this side,
with about two hun lred and sixty followers, on
Che 224 Gnr2a and Carayajal each wanted to
oe o lander-l4 Chief, but Vaudegri, the Chief
Of Pronunciamentos at Monterey, told them,

II did not like this arrangement, they
ne 'a*a, or ego on their own hook" as

He had announced that he would leave Mon

men and nine pieces of artillery, leaving gar

will be an easy conquest Camargo is garri-
soned by 400 men, but rumor has it that it will
be evacuated without fight Vol, the Gem
eral in Matamoras, is said to be in fear and
trembling Capt. Kennedy, of the Grampus,
has an order from him to bring to this place the
sol, 900 which was brought to the mouth Of the
Rio Grandeby one of the Mexican steamers,
Kennedy commands the steamer Grampus, and
it is inferred from VOLTS order that he does not
consider the other side of the river q safe place
for his specie.
The purpose of vaudegri is to take Camargo
and open the road to Chihuahua, SO that the
merchants anticipate speedy opening for
goods. Matamoras will be taken at some sub
sequent time.
Such is the substance of the various rumors
afioat this morning. 1t is proper to add that
this is one side Of the story, and have no means
Of ascertaining the other.
