Northern ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS,

seek to disguise the fact US much as they
choose, but their party has become thor
oughly abolitionzed In Massachusetts,,
the Know Nothing nominee for Governor,
Henry J. Gardner, in his letter Of accept
anee, declared hi. preference for Fremont,
and announced his determination to support
him Governor Gardner, the nominee of
the American party for Governor of Massa-
chusetts, in his letter accepting the nomi-
nation. says:
Believing that both the main ideas Of
the Springfield Platform would be recognized
in the administration of Col. Fremont, and
that both would be infexibly opposed by
that OF Mr. Buchanan, and the contest be
ing in my judgment solely between these
two gentlemen, shall suPPorf tfe former
This is the manner in which the boasted
national minded American party are to
succeed in the Northern States Every X. n.
Speaker who has visited Orovlle, has as
serted that the American party will carry
Massachusetts, How do they propose to
carry it, They cannot carry it for Fill
more, for their own nominee for Governor
avows his determination to support Ere
mont, and if they carry the State, it Will be
for the Republican candidate That is what
the American party in that State intend to
do and when Gcv. Foote, Baylp Peyton,
proclaim in thunder tones from he rotten
stump of Ki-Yi-ism that their party will
carry Massachusetts for Fillmore they are
deceived themselves, or they are endeavor-
ing to deceive the intelligent and national
minded freemen of California. They can
not carry Massachusetts at at all, unless
they carry it for Frement, and the Know
Nothing nominee for Governor is shrewd
enough to declare against Mr. Fillmore in
his letter accepting the nomination. NJ
Fillmore will not have a corporals guard Of
supporters IN Massachusetts, The fact that
the American nominees in THAT and other
Northern States, are declaring in favor OF
Fremont, should be sufficient to convince
t every national minded man in California
t that the Know Nothing order has no Ma
tional existcnce-is not a National party
and that the men who proclaim from the
stump that the Northern States are going
for Fillmore, are actuated only by The hope
Of carrying California, because they hare
AXES to grind" and California has TWO L.
s Senators to elect Notwithstanding the
fact that they have no national party-that
their party in one portion of the Union has
become "a contemplate Abolition party.
and in another portion las dwindled into
nsgn.icance- these Know Nothing stump
ers are still cherishing the delusive hope
that the signs and grips of poor abo-
litionized and defuuct Ki-Yi-ism is yet sulIi-
cieutly powerful in California, to elect two
:. Know Nothing Senators, AMI it is with thi,
idea that they are aborng to deceive the
voters of California into the belief that
Fillmore will be electcl-anl this, too.
when the nominees of their party are de-
claring in favor of the Black Republican
'.andidnte. Are the people of California
to be thus easily duped;
1t is not in Massachusetts alone that the
party has beceme abolitouized The infec
ton has spread, in a greater or less degree,
over all of the Northern States. In Indiana
according to the showing of papers in the
interest Of Nv. Fillmore, he Will scarcely be
noticed in the contest The Rockford Her
add one of the ablest Fillmore papers in
that State, says;
THE Fillmore State Convention was in
dee d, a sorry aifair. The enemies OF Fill
more, and all other men vino were once
wings, sfate that there were about two hun
d ed present, all told, and half Of them
were o.d liners These got into row when
most Of them bolted and went over to the (
immortal hero who ate a horse and climbed /
a Elauntain- Those who remnnel got out /
an electoral ticket, and sneaked off home /
I chop-fallen and woe-5egone. Thus has the /
mighty Amer lean party 10 Ioiiana dwindled !
/ down from 40 600 to 200, and half of them /
/ 10 ,ofocos.
I'VE still believe it the policy of the Fill +
more men in this State to vote for Fremont +
They have only to choose between Buchanan
and Fremont. FHimore IS nat IN the ques

We might continue to multiply extracts
from now until the day Of election, and X.
n. Office seekers, whose business it is to de-
deceive the people, would assert to the con
trary. Notwithstanding these assertions Of
K. n. Stump orators and canddates, we
trust the facts will come out sufficiently to
convince the people of California of the
fact that. that the contest is not between
Mr.. Buchanan and Mr. Fillmore, but be-
tween Mr.. Buchanan and Mr. Fremont.
