WORTHY OF NoTE.-We have heard it
remarked by persons well acquainted with the 10.
cali;ies, that most of the negroes who runaway
from this city to the North, first make for the wood
chopping districts on the Pamunky, Chickahominy,
Mattaponi and York Rivers, where they readily
find means of concealment, until all hopes of their
recovery are given up, when they secure passage
10 some otthe wood craft " trading to New York
Boston, and thus escape detection. From reports
circulated by servants it is generally believed that
there now several fugitives lurking about the
above named districts, and it is not at all impreba
BILE that they would readily be arrested, if proper
efforts were made to do 80.

SPIRIT oFTHE PRESS.

The Enquirer sludes 70 snsarticle In the WING i
Tuesday, denyIng that Know nottingham 10 ccr'
s,iracy against tho Government; wherein the
vhis cites, In support OF is postion, the pledge Of
The Know Nothing noviiiate to conform to all the
rules and regulations of this Order and to the con-
.,i,u,ion end by laws Of this or any other Council
10 which he may be attached, so long as they d.
lot conflict with the Constitution Of the United
states or that Of the State 10 which you reside" :
TO refute this the Enquirer publishes Article OF
he Constitution of tie U. States and section Is Of
the Virginia Constitution. (ssying that religioa.
les, shall not be prescribed as qualification for
Office and that men shall not be molested or burth-
sned on account of their religious princpes) side
nv side with extracts from the Know Nothing Con
.ti,uton, restraining members Of that Order from
voting for Catholics, &C., &c. The Enquirer al
Ieees that the direct and irreconcable autagonism
between the Federal and State Constitutions and
the Constitutions and ritual Of Know No,hineism, is
palpable to the plainest understanding and char.
ges that the qualification ofthe Know Nothing obi
CATION, on which the Wing relies, Is intended a
snare to the unwaIy, and salvo to the conscience
that is not yet hardened by the yoke OF Know No.
thingism.
The Penny Post endorses the Wings reply to tie
Enquirer's charge of conspiracy against Know
No.hingism, and adds some remarks of its own
In another column the Post introduces an article
from the American Organ, refuting the charge that
the Organ was in part the property of one of the
proprietors of the National Era.
The Hhig, in an article headed "The Anil
Know. Nothing Trick" alludes to the endeavors o.
The Democratic press to make it appear that the
Know Moth ings North are aboionists And wha,
q. asks If they should succeed How ought tAei,
aboltonism to operate TO the injury of thousands
at the South who happen TO concur with them in
opinion upon question having no earthly connex-
ion with aboliiionsmi The writer continues:
We can command no language strong enough to
express our utter detestation of trick so bsd SO
stupid and withal SO humanity and unjust No one
hates and despises Northern Abolitiopism in any
and all of its phases moro sincerely and heartily
than we do No one will go farther in denouncing it.
No one will herald the alarm of danger to the South
sooner No one will unite more readily with Demo
Gratis Know Nothings, or any other association of
men at the South or in the North to repel that dan
ger and put down it's authors, aders and abettors
But we will never consent to believe that any party
at the South. no matter by what name il is called
is In league and amty with Northern Abolitioniss
for any burmese affecting the peculiar Institutions OF
the South, its prosperity, its honor or its glory.
The Wing concludes that the charge of abolition
ism aga inst the Know Kothings is only desperate
trick to sustain desperate party, and its still more
desperate candidate.
