AMERICAN STATE PAPERs.--The London News pays the following handsome compli- ment to American statesmanship
 From the time of Alexander Hamilton to that of Edward Everett, the reports and cor respondence sent out by congressional com mittees and heads of departments have been of such singular merit as to fix the attention of society in Europe, wherever the Englls Ian guage is familiary read. The wonder IS less to persons familiar with the structure and work ings of the American government than to those who know only European ways. The states men at Washington are usually educated gen tlemen and men of business at once--usually professional men, who Set have had occasion, in the course of their lives, to do with their own hands much of the real business of life; and there is nothing like that sort of experience, when combined with liberal education. for enabling men to take and express sound and clear views of political subjects Webster used to say that he did his business all the bet ter for having his fathers horse to water before he went to college: and MT. Clay boastet oi his manual tolls as one of the chief preparations of his statesmanship. Chosen from among the people. the chief officers of the government know how to address the popular mind--and the popular mind in America, when dispas- sionate is mind of high order,

liberty is going on there, as of yorc, under the same old party names, to this day. Under these circumstances, after the termination of the revolution, the two parties took their old rela- tsve position-democratic freedom against arbi- trary rule. But, as before observed, the old party names were no longer practicable for par tizan purposes, therefore, in the contest which the formation of the constitution gave rise 10. republican took :he place of whig, and te1eralist succeeded to all the honors of torysm. The latter advocated all the principles of govern ment between the British system and one some- thing stronger than our present constitution.- Among the republican, every plan of democratic government was advocated from one something more democratic than that which was after wards established to the most radical democracy. Hamilton, Adams Rufus King, and others stood at the head of the first of those divisions Jefferson, Madison, and Franklin were among the most distinguished men of the latter.

Consistency.

Tn the presence of Almighty God and these wit hcsses !ou do soleninly promise and swear that you Will not vote nor give your influence for any man fol any office in the gift of the people, unless he be an American born citizen in favor of Americans ruling America, nor if he be Roman Catholic, that you will in all political matters, so far this order is concerned comply with the will of the majority
 though may conflict with your persoi al preference That you will a,nper0tire notice issued by
 the propor authority, obey the hecommand of the State council president or his deputy while assembled by such notice and respond to the claim of sion or a e,y of the order unless it be physically impossible You do further promise and swear % that you will vote for and support for all political offices m"0 or C"aon degree members of this order in pre- ference to all others."-Enow Ncthing Ritual.
 The object of quoting thus lengthily from the oath taken by every member of the Know Nothing order is to expose the sophstry and decelpt of members of the organization, who are attempting to elevate themselves to office and place, as independent no party candi- dates" As an instance of this kind of intr- que and political treachery, the Know Nothing candidate for judge of the third judicial circuit, IS forcible specimen. Twelve months ago, when "Sam's" prospects were fatterng none were more Jealous, none more enthusiastic, none more clamerous in the advocacy of the disre- putable humbug of Hindoo Wigwamism ."- He became self-constituted, or otherwise efi clent agent in raising fund, by private con- trlbutions, to defray the expenses and compen- sate Mir. - of Batesville, 10 travel round the circuit with him. to confer degrees and or ganize councils. While engaged in this very laudable non- political @ business, he found a respectable member of the bar, who had been deceived and decoyed into the order, about to withdraw. He earnestly appealed to this gen. tleman to desist, telling him it would never do for man of his position in society to come out; at the same time, intimating that if he would remain in the order that he should be elected to the Legislature, or be the candidate for Prosecuting Attorney
 Within one year from the date of the events above narrated, what change? Know Noth- inglsm is OF the wane. It is shown to be po- lltcal deceit, a miserable farce, a magnificent failure. Stripped of the mantle under which it was concealed, it is found to be cross be- tween democracy and black repubicanism-a political mulatto! like the mule, incapable of propogating its kind. But our hero, ever rich in expedients, intent on the spoils, comes forth, not as the candidate of "any clique or party" but with the announcement that ans on nay oscn Aook," an INDEPENDENT candidate.- Your trap won't catch democrcts Judge.

 EDITOR TRUE DEMoCRAT-I wish to say to the public, through yoar truly democratic paper, that about this time last year was soli- cited by the Rev. A. Coker, and N. E. Brady, both preachers of the gosple, or at least pre- tendingly so, to join what they called the great American party. They told me that it would not interfere with my political principles, and thinking it something great l concluded to join, after which I found all a mistake of the blackcst hue. I then made application to the council three different times to withdraw or have my name taken of. l cannot find out whether it has been taken off or not l avail myself of this opportunity of declaring my self no longer a member of the dark lantern lodge. I am a democrat and am willing to rise or fall with my party.
