Letter from Lebanon, Tennessee.
 Le5anon, Itnn April 12th, 1856 R. H. JOHNSON, Eso.,
 Dear Swallowing that you are ever proud to hear of the triumphant prospects of democracy, and the ill-success and disappoint- ments of the motley crew which has recently sprung up in our midst under the appropriate epithet of Know Nottingham, will give you a short sketch of one of the most remarkable failures that has ever occurred in the history of American politics. A few weeks ago when I left the State of Arkansas, 1 left with the sweet consolation that at least in that State the common enemy, alias Sam was not only con- quered but was then struggling in the extreme agonies of death On arriving at this place, Gin the county of Wilson) which gave NJ. P. Gen. try a large majority, and which has ever been one of the strongest whg holes in the State, came to the conclusion, after making partial survey of matters generally, that even whiggery had found that there is something rotten in Denmark, and that the crew of that sinking bark would rather risk their safety to the gene- rous principles of their old foe, than to vacl lating clique without platform or principles.- But was told by few renegades, that l was mistaken in my opinion. Said they Sam is young-he has been run so hard during the last year that he has Jagged, as is natural with colts, and is now recruiting, picking and preparing to herald forth to the world the anticipated nomi- nations of the Philadelphia convention. But the convention is now over with Nomipa- tions for the presidency and vice presidency of the great humbug party have been made; and the 1st of April has long since been appointed, and published in the Lebanon and NashviNe newspapers as the day set apart by the self styled Americans of Wilson to meet in the town of Lebanon for the purpose of ratifying the nominations of Willard Fillmore and An- dre,o Jlckson donelson as the standard bearers of the anti-democratic party. The whole country being thus attracted, every body looked forward to the 1st of April as the day which would test the strength of the American party in this por- ton of Tennessee. The great champion of the Know Nothing party is this State (Neiless Brown) was invited to attend and vindicate the Know Nothing cause And it was circulated through tho country that he (Brown) would certainly attend on that very important occasion

 EDITOR TRUE DEMOCRAT
 see in the Gazette of the 18th of March, an account of the special election held in this county on the 10th of March, for coun- ty and probate judge; which says: " this result may be taken as a fair test of the forces of the respective parties in this county" Now, sir, this is about like all the doings and sayings of the K. N. party, for I should like to know how the result of this special election can be taken as fair test of the forces of the respective parties, when there were only given about $50 votes, and the county votes about eight or nine hun- drei? There were two townships which are democratic almost to a man, that did not hold any election. and third which is democratic with the exception of one man, and out of if- ty votes, or upwards, there was but thirteen given. With these facts before us, what man of sound sense can come to the conclusion that this was fair test, especially when it is known that the Know Nothings Notwithstanding their cry was ID party test,) went out to the election and voted for their candidate almost to man. But experience will teach us how to act in flu 'nre The Know Nothings had entirely for gotten that the August election was so near at hand, or they would not have shown their hand so soon, for the democracy of this coun- ty are now fully aroused, and on Monday next We are to have a caucus meeting in Monticello Tor the purpose of nominating our county of ncers, and also for sending delegates to the Little Rock and Hot Springs conventions. think that the delegates from this county will De instructed to go for Conway without dis 'entlng voice. but it is hard to tell which vii pc the choice of the people of this county fol congress- Warren or Rust, though either o those gentlemen will suit the people of this county, and whichever may receive the nomin- aton may count on majority of two or three hundred from this county, for the democracy see that their only chance is to unite on som, one man and support him, for they know tha 'her opponents will not show them any favor especially when they are sworn to support tht nominee of their party, it matters not for wha,

MR. EDIToR:-Since MT. Fillmore and Do- nelson have been placed, emphatically upon on ant-savery platform, the Know Nothings of the south, as party, are doomed to defeat- tbey are dead-litcraly used up, and may be seen like mourners going about the streets, or Ike Noah's dove, finding no rest for the soles rtheir feet, etc.
 Some of their members, however, ill this critical condition, are taking the field as inde- pendent candidates; clearly demonstrating this treat truth, that they are unwilling to come be. fire the country advocating the principles of their party, but would rather dodge all their issues that are now before the American peo Ila and climb into power by some other way but will they succeed? that Is the question The old line whigs who are out side of their shantes haveitin theirpowerin the arproachina crisis to render important service to the coun. try in which they live Will they do it?

0r We see by the court records that the two counterfeters, White, of Buffalo, and Law renee of Ripping, N. H.. have been placed under ten thousand dollar bonds, each for mak- ing and selling limitations of AYERS CHERRY PECToRIAL. This is right. If the law should protect men from imposition at all it should certainly protect them from being impos- ed upon by worthless counterfeit of such a medicine as Ayers Cherry Pictorial. We can only complain that the punishment is not half enough The villain, who would for pal try gain, deliberately trihle with the health of his fellow man, by taking from their lips, the cup of hope, when they are sinking and subs stituting a falsehood-an utter delusion, should be nunished at least as severely as he who counterfeits the coin of his country-Greer Co.
