Immediately after the election for Gov
ernor last Spring, the Spectator declared
as follows: I'm this county we have an
invincible host, by which we can at least
put to nigh. the armies Of the aliens, in
old Augusta. Let us have little govern
men, to ourselves, and resolve that Ameri-
cans shall rule Augusta, If they do not rule
Virginia.
Twelve months ago they announced
their determination to prescribe Democrats
and then denounced them as "aiens. -
They say how, they with reluctance con-
scented" to nominate candidate Tor The
Aitorheyship. There would seem to be
Sigh. Inconsistency IN these two decla-
rstions. The first effort our beloved eou-
pie made to establish their little govern
ment.', most signally failed. We told
Them that the treemen Of Augusta would
not listen to their bigoted and parlizan
notions but would repudiate them. We
have not been mistaken. Who's prosc'ip-

"Let us 60 to work, ticn, and endeavor
TO atone for the defeat of last Thursday,

following cud to chew: LET him (every
American) remember that Aueh a defeat
fthe defeat Of Mr, Kinney would be the
deadIiest blow that could possibly be in.

This is the Spectator here and there
For persons who claim to be consistent in
their opinions, this looks very well. We
feel sorry for our beloved couple, sspe-
cially the junior. He labored SO paitiot-

A. II II. Stuart is now IN New York
city, and has been there for or 10 days,
What Is he doing there' We you'd not
oe surprised if he had gone there for the
purpose OF negotiating Tor a compromise
with the Black Republicans on the Staun-
ton Platform. This conjecture is gwen
significance from the rumots Of Mr.. Pull
moEe's declind!ion. The plan on loot
now Is. for the Black Republicans to give
their nomination 70 Judge Mclean, adopt
a platform with the single item oil oppo~
sltion 10 the Nebraska Bill in It, and thus
effect a coalition with the Anti ebraska
Southern Know Nothings. II successful,
the spoils would be distributed in proper
ton to the strength Of tie different ele-
menis. We put this conjecture IN print.
Let it be noted. Mr.. Fillmore will de-
cline. Judge McLean will be nominated
by the Black Republican Convention on
the 18th Of June, aud the Southern and
Northern Anti-Nebraska Know Nothings
will fuse with the Black Republicans in
the election OF President, in the hope and
with the promise OF share of the per-

Signs.

A letter, we understand, has been re-
ceived from Mr.. Fillmore IN which he
states he will not decide upon The accep-
,dnce of the Philadelphia nomination M
til he arrives in this country and Surveys
the field. This we consider equivalent
to a declination.
Since this intelligence has been spread,
we have heard several members Of The
Know Nothing party, who are now offici-
ally connected with it, state tina: il he does
not accept, and they think the probability
is he will not, they will take the stump
either for Dickinson, Huuter or Rusk,
should either be nominated by the Cinciu-
natl Convention.

Ii see as TO be a generally conceded feet,
that the old line Wings will act with the
democratic party in the coming Presidential

in this county, and lev hesitate not 10 de-

him. The South, they agree, will have
to present an united front in the next Pre-.

the B. Republicans they will throw their
weight in their behalf. This feeling is be.
coming general, not only with the old line

with the Know Nothing party. Indeed.
the signs are promising.
