dleton having satisfied ourselves that
said party is both unjust and anti-rePub-
lican in its principles; that ITS leaders
are endeavoring to practice decep'ioh on
its members. as shown by the admission
Of the Catholic delegates intolthe tfrand
Council nj Philadelphia. in Feb. 1856,
when expressly forbidden BY the consti-
tuition and directly opposed 10 the Prln-
ciples Of said order as laid down IN the
Know Nothing platform Of June, 1862
and from the fact that said party North
has become thoroughly Abolitionized;
with these facts, in connection, with many
others. we believe it a duty that I'VE owe
TO the South, the Union and our free IN
situations TO dissolve our'connection with
said parry; and from tho fac: that there
is no opportunity presented TO allow us
to withdraw from the respective councils
to which We belong, some of which fail to
meet, and others, from some trlfling pre-
text, refuse TO exonelate US as members,
now, this is to notify our respective
councils and the balance of the party
that we hereby dissolve all connection
with them as party, and, IN future,
SHALL ACT AND VOTE AS FREEMEN.
