Tha yota af Louisville


The following paragraph from the Louis

Of Know Nothingism in that city that must
be truly gratifying to the members Of that
order:
The mesgrs vote cast in this city on Monday
is suggestive only of the most unpleasant re.
fections TO all right thinking men. yet the
Journal has the baseness to exult over il as a
brilliant N. victory. The X. Ms brorght
out their full stsength. and in order to do so
resorted to ineendiary newspaper appeals torch

candidate who had a competitor polled only
2 2,52S votes. Last August they PEELED 3.2I6
votes. thus show ing decrease in their strength
of I5l votes. 1t seems that only the personal
friends of the independent ca didaies fell
enough interest to go to the polls. Louisville,
years ago. polled nearly 5000 votes, but on
Monday her vote was bat little more than one
half that number. And yet this is g state OF

FRIDAY MORNING, AUGUST 8, 1856.
Abolition Meeting at Knightstown.


On Wednesday, the 9th inst, an Abolition
mass meeting assembled at Knightstown, in
Henry county, about thirty-two miles east
OF indianapolis. The number of persons
present was large, and consisted of citizens
of Wayne, Henry, Rush, Hancock, Marion,
and such others, of Abolition feelings as the
facilities of rail roads and the dense popula-
ton Of the country could easily concentrate at
that place. Henry and Wayne counties are
the strong holds of AbOlitonism in Indiana,
being largely filled with Quaker population,
who are always hostile to Democracy
A very prominent portion of the assem-
blage consisted Of negroes, who, in i'm.
mense numbers, came to hold commu-
Mon with their white Abolition allies.-
The whole number Of the gathering was es-
timated at between four and five thousand
persons, including women and children, and
of this number, nearly one-JIttt ,0eye free ne
groes. Some six or eight hundred negroes,
in counsel with their white brethren, made
rather a mixed assemblage and, as the day
was quite warm, when the sun ranged high
est, the whole thing was quite offensive to
the alfactory nerves, as we'll as to the educa-
tionsl prejudices of many who had been
taught to believe in the inequality of the
black and white races. We are we'll assured
by gentlemen of Fusion politics, that they
never saw such general turn out of negroes
of both sexes, at any previous political meet
ing, and they expressed themselves totally
disgusted with such an admixture of castles
and colors.
The grand spotted caravan was headed by
GoDLovE s. ORTIZ, MoREAU, CAssrUs M.
CLAY, SAM. w. PARKER and WIN. GRosE, as
speakers, who addressed the meeting in about
the order here named. At another stand
the illustrious GEORGE w. JULIAN and Gen
DAVID KILGoRE also made speeches AS
matter of course their discourses were Of the
m ost inflammatory Abolition character, such
as are daily re.hashsd by their sp eakers and
presses, not mitigated in ardor or false doc
trine, but breathing hatred to the South, sec.
tional division and eventual disunion
The names of the speak ers who officiated
give good idea Of the matter which they
would preach to the audience, and the high
toned Abolition sentiments Of the district,
was in response to all the ultraisms that
could be produced.
To every cool and clear headed citizen,
these travelling political menageries are not
useful, nor are they pleasing, but display a
great effort to keep up undue excitement and
to swell the numbers of those who go from
town to town as a portion of the available
force of Fremont, for public exhib ton. The
Knightstown gathering will long be RENE m
bered as one of the peculiar illustrations of
the beauties of Abolition amalg amation.

Black Republican Love for Foreigners.

"A new coat ana a new name, encourage
the pick-pocket to renew his depredations
in the line Of his profession.
By the same process and for like purpose the
Know Nothing Aboltionist of 1854, wearing
the coat and the name of Republican in 1856,
deems himself sufficiently disguised and full
ly qualified for new effort to cheat the Ger
mans, and other Foreigners, into the support
Of the Abolition ticket.
Let us review, occasionally, the language
used in 1904, by the present organ of Black
Republicansm in Indiana, the Indianapolis
Journal, when they felt particularly coura-
geous and impudent on account of the tenn
porary triumphs of Know Nothingism in the
State election of that year.
They were then bold and confident. Mis-
led by the shadow of success, they spoke
out in strong and unmistakable terms, THEN
real sentiments of deep and settled hatred to
foreigners, whom they now SO lovingly ca
ress and invite to join the ranks of Abolition
ism.
Germans, Ffenchmen and Irishmen-read
the following bitter denunciaiion of foreign
ers, from the same Indiana Journal of Dec
20, 1854:
By universal concession, the injurious iniu
ence of fore igners is felt mainly in their partici
patton, without sufficient knowledge, in ia,
administration of the affairs of the country
Again:-"Nothing but prohibition of EN-
igration will do any good.'
Again:-"lf they could not vote, the
could do no HARM
Now, the Abolition organ would like t
sing a new song to the dear German and tn
Irish gentleman, with the sweet brogue.
Again: social vices Of the Irish d.
infinitely less harm to the State, than thei
votes.'
Enough for 10 day, we NAV give addition

exhibited by the Republican organ, whe

The New York Tribune's Political
8tatfetfcs

No paper abounds more In politics stalls
tics than the New York Tribune. Given
under show Of candor and fairness. they
become sort of standing text for the lesser
lights of the party, and enable them to dole
out TO their readers yast amount Of "reli-
able facts" with very little labor. Thus,
for instance. the Tribune, not long since, sta,
ted that there were sixty thousand German
Turner'S In the United States, and went into
all the minutise Of pointing out their locali-
ties, their Presidential preferences, &c, &c
OF these sixty thousand Turner'S, the TIibaas
assigned seven thousand to the South, who
would vote for Mr.. BUCHANAN, and the re-
manning fifty-three Thousand to the North.
who, with the exception of g few hundred,
would vote for FREMosr.
A German correspondent OF the Detroit
Free Press, noticing this elaborate display OF
grave nonsense by the Tribune, says:
But the fact is, there are about 5000 Turner'S,
of which one-half cannot yet vote, being un-
der 2I years OF not yet naturslized- OF the
remaining 1000. one-half (all those IN the
Southern States, most Of those an the CITY OF
New York aud the neighbofing cities, ana

who probably will vote for Fremont amounts

Randolph County,

Mr.. EDITOR A good deal has been said
about the negro who was sent by the Black
Republicans to reply to Governor WILLARD,
and as the editor of the "dog-skin" journal
here has attempted to deny the charge | will
give you the facts, which can be proven true
by more than thirty as reputable citizens as
this or any other county contains. On the
evening after Governor WILLARD had spoken
here, it was openly proclaimed in the streets,
that a negro by the name of ANDERSON,
think, would reply to him. When evening
came the Court House bell was rung, and
crowd of Fusionists, together with few
Democrats, assembled. The negro made his
speech, attempting to reply TO the speech of
the afternoon. At every pause he was
cheered by the Fusionists, and al the close Of
the meeting collection was taken up for
him amounting TO several dollars. Before he
closed his harangue he told the people that
on the next evening he would again address
them on the same subject. On the second
night similar crowd assembled, and the
negro made another speech, attempting to
initiate the motions and gestures of Willard.
| He was loudly cheered as before by the Re-
publicans, and another collection taken up
for his benefit. The same scenes, as ! have
learned, took place at MuncIe, in Delaware
county, on the evening before this negro
champion Of the Republican party came here
The fact that this negro was sent out, and
paid, and encouraged by the Fusionists &c
follow Governor Willard around and abuse
him, cannot be doubted by any man who II
converssnt with the facts.

G>T The Easton Argus says We state
what we know to be fact, that there are
men now in our midst who are authorized 10
buy up all the nesospopers that can Be purchased,
to support FREMoNr. But recently propo-
sition was made TO JOSIAH CoLE, editor OF
the German Independent Democrat, published
in Easton, to pay him three thousand dollars
if he would desert BUCHANAN and BRkcKN-
RIDGE and devote his paper to the support
of FRKMosr aud his Abolition principles.--
To his credit be il spoken, Mr. CoIE treated
the offer as it deserved. The bri5ers knew
the Democrat to have a large circulation
amongst the Democratic farmers of old
Northampton and the adjoining counties,
and they thought if they could induce Its
publisher to betray his party and his friends,
they could reach that class of voters. But
the game would not work. The Democracy
of Northampton county are made of too
stern stuff to be bought They are devoted
to the Constitution and Unien, and will
never march under the flag Of Abolitionism,
by whatever name 1t may be called.
