ing virtue of courage, and displays a
portion of the chivalric feeling by
putting son our guard; but the treach-
crous sympathser, who disarms sus'
picion by proclaiming an affection he
does not feel, and uses the privileges
of a friend to perform the functions of
an enemy, closely resembles those
poisners of the 18th century, who
masked with great show ofcourtesy
and good feeling hateful designs, and
by presents of mcdicated flowers tam
pcIed with the lives of their victims.

REASONS WHY 0LD-LINE WINGS CANNOT ACT
WITH THE KNOW-NOTHINGs

We have read with much pleasure series Of exceeding
ly-we written articles in the Nashville Tennessee Union,
in which oldline wing of that State discusses the
proper to be taken by the oldlne wings in the
pending presidential contest From the concluding num-
Der Of the series the following conclusive e
sons against q cooperation with the know-nohings
"In the northern States where aboonism finds its only
adherents, Ia confessedy true that It's only antagonist
the national democratic party. The American or know
nothing party thoroughly aboonized in the Tree o
the black republicans themselves. In proof OF this c'
need only adduce the unanimy with which, in the election
for Speaker they united upon Banks, in the undisgua
spirit Of aggression upon southern rights which sgnu

universal demonstration Of abolition procives among w

which they have always claimed TO be the distinctive cba

would be virtually defeat OF the national party ana

"3d Because the and principles Of the know

doctrines Of free government and with that freedom Of con-
science in questions Of religious faith which the dearest
inheritance bequestbed to by republican ancestors
