GSuch Is Knownothingism!" !"

The Marysve Herald OF Tuesday struck thu
Fillmore colors and run up the Bear Flag, inscribed
with the names Fremont and Dayton. The Stat
Journal makes great parade Of the circumstance
predicts general stampede with Lul and exultantly
exclams "Such is Knownothingism." The N. Y
Herald is a paper of the Journals own sort in this
particular: it has an unvarying rule-never to be
surprised Come what will-drouth, thunder, light
ming, hail or rain earthquakes land-sides, comets
untold or th tails-Bennett and White are prepared
for the worst and like the old lady whose husband
told her that the had eaten the grindstone, their
stereotyped ejaculation is, g told you so!" The
Journal says that u year ago it prophesed that
when this party should be forced up to the present
political ISSUE it would divide into its original ele
ments and fall to pieces. The prophesy is now being
literally fulfilled"
Most learned and immaculate sachem How cru
el of the Fates, that your wisdom should be doomed
to waste its fragrance on the desert air of little
Knownothing State like this What a shame that
you were not appreciated in your own country
and among your own kindred!" But enough OF
hat-while you claim it we'll give you credit for the
prophesy-lest by and by, when the scales shall have
fallen from your eyes, and you see the American par
y going on, conquerng and to conquer, you might re-
vert to your old gag and make poor Colonel Walker
responsible for the prophesy, as well as those Anti
Nebraska editorials
"Such is Knownothingism, say you? Knownoth-
ingism did not elevate to the Sacramento Mayoralty

Journal-neither did Democracy; but fusion OF
Republicanism and Democracy did it. The first in
stance is not yet of record, of similar compromise
in this State, to which Knownothingism was party.

MEssRs. EDITORS In the last issue of the Moun-
tain Democrat, the senior editor in reply to portion
of the article which appeared in the Argus OF the
10th inst. Charging him with raising the cry of
"Aboitionsm" in days of yore says that he resided
in San Francisco when the Miners and Settlers ticket
was in the field. Triumphant vindcation
Pass the hat-we'l give u "copper"
Wit and genius repay;
Truth will gain another martyr
Who resided at the Bay
The charge was based upon the following scrap
which appeared in print about that time, referring to
the candidates Of the above-named party, for the
offices of Recorder and Senator:
MIR. -, high toned southern gentleman
matched with woolly headed abolition -"
The author of this may have resided in this county
but tat he had sympalhizng friends in other parts OF
the State, presume no one, however good his men,
ory, will attempt to deny; and the case and facility
with which the "harp Of single string is made to
vibrate at the present time, shows plainly that the
days of pupilage are over and degree of PERFECTION
attained which practice alone can afford
Whether the knowledge evinced was acquired here
or elsewhere, is matter of little Importance; and
although the whereabouts of men of rare talents may
at all times be generally known, yet it is possible
that there may have been difference of opinion in
regard to the merits of the present case at that time
For the future, however, venture the assertion that
all will be of one mind and in view of the momei-
tous consequences that would follow departure at

were surprised at the turn out of Fillmore voters at

the result will be different.

KENTUCKY ELEcroN.-Partial returns Of the State

In Glasgow, Frankfort and Shelbyville, the Amer

In Lexington, all the American ticket is elected
except Marshall, the democratic candidate having 90
majority.
