will srenuousy themselves for the nomination OF
President Pierce These will also be friendly TO Mr..
Guthrie.
The sad excesses of party of bgoy and intolerance
(and on account of which many poor women now go
about the streets In mourning) have made the sceptre
in ihe hands OF know-nohings barren one. In spite
Of appeals passions in spite of sophistry in spite OF

interests in giving strength to the antadminstraton
party since lis end and real purpose hostility and dis
as,er those institutions. 1t is wen known that ia the

of Pennsylvania in 1851 in which he de-
feated the celebrated William Johnston the wellknown
leader of the abolition forces In that memorable

when candidate for reelection, he met the Nebras-
ka issue upon the stump in series of mastery and
convincing arguments He defeated in that
campaign by the abolitonsts and know-nothings. In
1855, when the democracy of Pennsylvania met the
hosts of fusion aud took issue with them in the drec
and emphatic manner crownng their labors with almost
