" " hen Henry Wilson was elected u
S. Senator, by the Know Nothing Legis-
a,ure Of Massachusetts,, the True Amerl-.
can of this place 'cong1 aialated the country
upon the event and was delighted that
such man had been selected by the Know
Nothings. In keeping with this is The
declaration Of the Spectator, that Henry
NJ. Fuller is substantial national man
who is almost as wild and as reckless an
aboli,onist as Wilson. To such straits
are Southern Know Nothngs driven.

Catholics Where's Know Nothing con-
sistency? Where's the thunder Of the
Spectator and the True American against

" 1t is highly probable that the Know
Nothing National Convention which as.
sembled yesterday, will adjourn to the 4th
OF Jniy, without making nomination for
the Presidency. In this event, the chances
OF George Law viii be somewhat dimin-
lshed. The contest seems to be between
Law and Fillmore.

outlines of his hero or heroine. His imagery
is properly selected; and though the language,
we think, at times, borders on excess, and
might be chastened, yet is expressive, and
generally adapted to the personages by whom
used. The minor poems of different measure,
as also founded on wide diversity of subjects,
contain, we think, some of the bestwritten
poetry of the volumes. The authors powers
are concentrated more upon one effort, and he
has given more of life and freshness of effect
in his lives than in the larger ones. The
Podesta's Daughter, Ia dramatic sketch of some
lengthy the Ivory Carver, and others, relating
to Spanish history, belong to this class. The
ballad of Sir John franklin, evidently suggest.
ed by an older ballad of English poetry, con-
tains many striking stanzas, but labors under
the constant comparison with the original and
well-known strains of ancient DAYS. In Mr..
Boxers collection of sonnets, there are many
very beautiful ones, though we do not profess
SO much admiration of this class of poetical
efforts as others. Taken as a whole, we well
come these volumes, affording such evidences
of genius and poetic inspiration, which compare
well with much that is commended across the
Atlantic, and indeed superior to many books
on which the critics Of Great Britain have set
their seal.

notice in our next.

for the Republican candidates for President
and Vice President.
The happiness and prosperity of the Ameri
can people at large aud the fate of millions of
poor negroes, depend upon the result of the
present Presidential campaign; and that heart
must be depraved that can consent to any act
that might contribute to defeat the hopes that
are attached to the triumphant election of FIRE.
mont and Dayton.
May no reader of the National Era possess
ing the right of voting, neglect, on the day of
the Presidential election, to record his attach
ment to the principles of genuine Freedom, by
aiding the Republican party with his vote. The
memory of having discharged this duty cannot
fail to console his heart, when saddened by the
cares of this world, or to provoke smile upon
his dying lips.
May every friend of Freedom and Harmony
in the United States remember that the ensa-
ing Presidential election is of the most moment
tous importance, as to the realization of the
hopes which Washington. Jefferson. Franklin,
and other of the Revolutionary Fathers, enter
tanned. relative to the future destinies of the
great Republic which they had assisted in estab-
fishing. May all true patriots and all genuine
Republicans do their duty, and our beloved
country will soon be blessed with an Admins
trstion worthy of the love of the whole nation
and the esteem of mankind
Millions of Europeans are expecting, with
anxiety, the joyous news that Liberty has got
the victory over the Slave Power, and that the
Republicans have routed the sham Democracy.

ANOTHER WITNESS.

ALAMO, ND, Oct. 81. 1856.
To the Editor o. the National Era:
We are beaten in Indiana. The sham De
mocracy have elected their State ticket, and SIX
of eleven Congressman.
But how? By an unholy coalition Of Know
Nothings and BUCCANEERS. This is the truth
and may be relied on.
The leaders of the Know Nothing or Fill
more party first offered to sell out to our State
Central Committee, proposing to support oul
State ticket, and asking, as a consideration
that we should give them pHe Of the tsco Uni
ted States Senators to be elected the coming
winter. This proposition, our Committee
of course rejected. The Dark Lantern mer
then offered the same to the Democratic Com
mittee, and that fish bit. The result is, we are
beaten in the State by small majority. And
another result will be, that hundreds of good
Democrats will leave the party, and vote for
the Pathfinder.
There are $4,000 Fillmore men in the State
and if they run him, we will poll 10000 major
ity for Fremont. Yours, hastily,
JAMES NJ. SIMPSON.
