slavery and Democracy and q common thirst aft.r
the spols. The whole anti slavery and Know. No
thing opposition the North are thus rallied against
the nntiona Democratic party, the Constitution and
the Union. In seeking to accomplish the success of
ultra Abolitionsm and the defeat of the great Demo-
cracy, the wireworkers rely confidently upon the aid
of Mr.. Fillmore and his Southern Know. othing ad
herents The New York Herald, now So rampant
for Fremont let the cat out of the bag some time since
as follows:
The triumphs of the combined opposition forces

this event the election would of course, 90 up to the

Here the infamous policy is boldly avowed Of using
Mr.. Fillmore us decoy.duck to weaken the national
Democracy at the South SO as to throw the election
into the Black Republican Know Nothing House of
Representatives! 1t is the same policy that has been
boldly charged upon leading Southern Know-No-

Democracy would sacrifice the Constitution and the
Union for the benefit Of the tratorous abolition dis

Joyous ,idings of the rallyng of good and oOnserva

to consigu them to defeat and infamy Never did We

Old Bible Doctrine.

William Wall, Esq, formerly one of the
board of canal commissioners OF Ohio, and
democrat of the olden time. has become
editor Of the Brown County (Ohio) Demo-
crat. Among the old doctrines he is preach
ing weekly for the benefit of his readers, we
find the following:
The CHURcH.-My religious notions are
rather peculiar. The great commandment is
six days shalt thou labor and do all thy
work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of
the Lord thy God, in it thou shalt not do any
work. According to the commandment d
christian is Just as much bound to labor, dill
igently, six days of the week in his profess
sion or calling, for the comfortable support
and maintenance of himself or family, and
for the benefit of his creditors. if he has any,
as he is bound to abstain from labor on the
seventh day and to 6 remember to keep 1t
holy" unto the Lord And no man or wo-
man can be running day and night to meet
ing or elsewhere without neglecting their du
ty to themselves, to their families, or credit
ors, and endangering their health. And st.
Paul says &c if any provide not for his own
and especially for those of his own house, he
hath denied the faith and is worse than an in
fidel." If person instead of laboring dill
gently in his business during six days of the
week, and going to bed early in order to rest
| HIS UOuy ana mluu ny TelIeSulUS sIee anu
quietness, so that he may be prepared for the
duties of the coming day, should attend
church every day and every night, he must
soon become exhausted in strength and must
neglect his business and if he owes dollar
in the world, he is dishonest man and no
christian. If he owes money his time hon.
estly belongs to his creditors until the debt
is paid and after that his family and friends
have just claim upon him. Besides this,
going into a crowded, heated room, becoming
excited, shouting singing loud and praying
long, and then going out into the cold air, is
ruinous to health. My doctrine then, is, to
attend to your own secular duties faithfully
and diligently during week days-go to no
night meetings, but be Jealous and faithful
on the Sabbath, and give to the Lord all the
time By this do not recommend man to
become a mere Sabbath christian, for per-
son can ejust as religious, and just as good
christian when engaged in his daily labor,
as when on his knees engaged in prayer ; and
| cannot approve of loud boisterous worship,
for the Lord was not in the wind, nor in the
earthquake, nor in the fire, but in the still
small voice. So religion is not in words, nor
in violent gestures, but in the heart.

DELUGE IN SATURN.-The astronomers re-
Gently have asertained, to their own satisfac
tion, that the third ring of Saturn-and we
Judge therefore the others also-is fluid and
that ' the inner borders of the ring have, since

preaching the body of the planet, and that
we may expect, sooner or later, perhaps in
some dozen of years, to see the rings united
with the body of the planet"

% That venerable and much.abused in
dividual known as the clerk OF the weather.
has grown n whimsical as an antiquated
young Miss Of forty-fve, lately. Yesterday,
the rain poured down ia torrents and the wind
arose to sucha pitch as to render crossing the
river somewhat dangerous the weather re.
naming rather warm than otherwise. During
the night the wind shifted round 20 the north
east, aud increased in violence to such a de-
gree that skifts, fatboats and other small craft,
were torn from their fastenings. and either
blown ashore or sunk. The fcrryboat took
a short excursion on her own hook, hut brought
"p somewhere in the neishborhood of the
lower saw mill, but without sustaining any
serious dau:age, while the wind is as cold as a
Siberian winter. .

g The election is over, and West Baton
Rouge has not given the vote we had a right
to expect, and would have had. if our NJ ~
had turned out in its full strength. Last ye,r
cur parish gave Derbisny majority 81 +ishty.
and the result of Tuesday last showed it but
hffy-three ahead Our opponents claim this
deficiency as a Democratic gain, but the next
election held in this parish will show them
how fal'acious the assertion-how void of
every truth. We know of some thirtv of our
voters who did not vote, but whom we know
have rot and will not sw-rve from their de-
votion to the American party. There is no
excuse for their not coming to the polls at all
hazards. The plea Of being too busy planting.
or that the heavy rains Of Monday has rem.
dered the reads impossible, deserves every
censure at our hands. 1t has given our enc
mics a chance to crow without cause. and
tends to strengthen the assertion that noble
old West Baton Rouge has fallen under the
baneful influence Of Locofoccism.
