Harmony Between the Know Nothing
 Candidates,

The Washington Union says it does not de- sire to be understood as making any objections to the Know Nothing nomination at Phladel- phia, as it could hardly have suggested com- bination which would have made its task so easy in the coming canvass. "It will be re- membered that while Mr. Fillmore was Presi- dent, Mr. Donelson was editor of the Wash ington Union. The Union s ood in direct op- position to Mir. Filmore's administration, and MT. Donelson has left on record abundance of materials on which the head of the ticket can be effectually crushed. We shall make Mr. Donelson do our work against MT. Fillmore. It will be amusing to find how bad man Mr. Fillmore is, according to Mr. Donelson."

 On motion of Col Black, the following reso- luton was read, and after some discussion, in which Col. Hinkle, Col. Beck and Col. Black, participated, was submitted to a vote and adopted
