When Willard Fillmore stopped to enter the cul-
vert Of Know Nothingism, he swore that if elected
appointed to any official station comforting on him

aliens and Roman Catholics from Office place, and
that he would in case appoint such to any Office

If Willard Fillmore is elected President of the
United States he must swear to support the Consti-
tuition, and that Constitution says: No religious
test shall epe, be required as qualification to any
office or public trust under tho United States"
Mr.. Fillmore has already sworn that he soiU re-
quire religious test if he is elected and if he is

~ "Vote for Fillmore and trust the consequent
ces to Providence" is the pious cry of the Know
Nothings. Why did Providence endow US with rea.
son. but that we might regulate our actions withre-
ference to their Consequences The man who will
fully sins and trusts the consequences to Providence
can expect nothing but condemnation. As well
might il be said, sVote for Fremont, Greedy, Sew.
ard, or any other devil and trust to Providence.
Our reason is given US that may regulate our &C.
tons according to consequences that must follow
Reason shows US that every vote cast for Fillmore
increases the chances for the election of Fremont as
consequence. Providence helps no one that does
not help HIMSELF and if we see the evil consequent
ces that must follow action it is impious sup.
pose Providence will interfere to avert those conse-
quences and turn them into good. The exercise Of
reason is not salvation bat in secular affairs is
guide; and when the consequences of an action are
evidently evil Providence will not interfere by amir
acle, to turn our folly into wisdom, and to bestov
blessing where nothing but curse can be expected.
