ternity of Know Nottingham, we have varied the caption of this, ill order to complete the present history of federalism as presented under its new phase of Know Nottingham or native Americlnism.
 Before proceeding to detail the beauties of Know Nottingham, We will recapitulate some of it's past history, that we may be the better prepared to appreciate the patriotic motives which have ever actUatel that great native American party.
 f'irss then, we find that from the first forma- ton of our constitution in 1707 down to the present day, that they have been both secret and open enemies to their native country.- That in 1795, the Know Nothing party under tbe name of federalis.s, passed the abominable alien and sedition laws, embracing whatever IS odious in the ritual or crelenda of their present worthy successors That in 1914, when the United States was at war with Great Britain, that they treacherously met in convention at Hartford, to concoct schemes to thwart theirgo- vernment, and that they actually, by blue lights,' trditorously held secret communications with the British sGu1,.rons. That by secret intr.ues they defeated the elect oil oi the pa trotic Jackson in lSZ4 I hat n 1928, when he was again candidate, tnal they puraded haud- bills through ,He streets with cotiins ou them expressive of the sympathy they felt for two British emissare, (thcr irends) whom Jackson had executed. I hat jr 1885, iii order to obtain chatter .or.Ae United States Baui, o. Pennsylvania, they Gi4 lot hesitate to affiliate with the all-Masone party of that Sate That in 1857 and '39, they eudeavoreJ to force the people 10 adopt taetr anti-republican mea- su,e> by bringing distress and ruin on the coun- try through the su>pe sion of specie payments bv the banks over which they exercised control That they have ever ha! principles to suit all attitudes, and have cu3a.cl names IS often as their old ones hecamr nbuoX:ous or they found they could dups the honest anal ,ususpectn2 yeomary of the Ia:a by the assumption of ntW une-

That in February of the same year, they rejected the application of Texas for admission into the ni0n, with full know ledge that the abolition party, aided by Great Britain, was enueayo u5 to erect 1t into d non slaveholding State. hat in the face of the insults and indiguities heaped upon their native coruuy by MeXico,-that they opposed the Mexican war, and done all they dare do, (as they did in the last War with Great Brtan,) to give "aid Ard comtor," to our enemies That their manner of conducting elections las been signalized by fraud, corruption, and bloodshed; whilst they shamclu'ly violated every pledge ever given by them. That uotder to carry out thelrdcsire iorPower, they snameully and bare facedly nominated two ofthe heroes ofthe wars oflol2 and '46, wa which they opposed and which they impIored the ven5eauce of Heaven upon! That to secure the election of one of those chieftains, they did not hesitate to ap- peal to the prejudice5 If the Catholic citizens of Louisville, Cincinnati, and other places to favor his pretensions.

Hav- ing secured the services of almost the entire protestant ministry at the north who keep alive the abolition flame, the next step was to pro- cure the aid of southern protestant ministers

Judson, alias Ned Buntline, together with several Irish orange clergymen Ca class who have ever proved traitors to their own countrv) where with the ritual and oaths of the orange Know Nothing lodges of Ireland imported for the purpose, together with the oaths and resolutions invented by the traitors who composed the Hartford convention. those arch-trators to their country and to their God produced that delectable piece of workmanship styled Know Nottingham; where under the hcllish pretence of Catholic domination, cou- pied with a hypocritical profession of love for their native country (which their whole lives have given the lie to- they hoped to arouse all of the dormant prejudices of southern protest ant ministers, and thus enlist their services for the treacherous and dirty work in which they, as abolitionists, have ever been engaged
 With the funds filched from their dupes in the shape of utilization fees, etc., they have flooded the whole south with lying pamphlets, written Ia Maria Monk by northern protestant abolition clergyman, and bedizened out for the purpose of attracting the attention of the vul- gar and illiterate, and filled with just such matter as will minister to mind diseased,' or satiate the morbid appetites of southern big ots and fools. What success has attended their treacherous and unhalowed efforts, we leave it to others to judge contenting ourselves with remarkng, that to our certain knowledge many of our ministers who have manifested the ut
