POLITICIANS, NOT srArEsMES.-Eothlns marks
the decline in the character Of our political
men better than some traits which thc men
~ present figuring on the political stage are
constantly exhibiting. These are traits of folly:
and they are to be met with in the conduct
and language Of the political leaders Of every
par,y at present before the publc--dcmo-
cr,t republican, American, Niger worship
per, niger driver, Know Nothing-without any
exceptions.
For instance, II Is not many weeks since Mr..
Fillmore declared in this State, on more than one
OCCASION that in the event Of the election Of Mr.
Fremont the South would not submit; in other
words that there would be revolution, and an
immediate dissolution Of the Union.
NJ. Buchanan has declared that .the very ex-
istenoc Of the Union has been threatened" by The
slavery discussion, and intimated that Fremonts
success would amount to q sentence Of outlawry
on one half the confederacy.
Mr.. Toomis says that "thc election Of Fremont
would I've the end Of the Union and ought to be.
On the other hand, Mr. Wendell Phillips is OPP
posed to the republicans and Fremont because
"they will retard the dissolution Of the Union
the most desirable contamination that in his view
can be hoped for.
Chcvalicr Watson Webb Is ready ito drive
beck the South sword in hand" lie laid down
at tho Philadelphia Convention his course Of duty
IN the coming "civil war;" and then aud there
declared that i" If the republicans failed at the
ballot box they would lie forced to drive back
the slaveocracy with fire and sword
In the same spirit, Henry Ward Beecher and
bis friends generously decline " to levy war or
inaugurate a revolution even TO relieve Kansas
until they have first tried what they can do by
voting, But If this remedy should fail, they
will "count the cost Of rising in arms and throw
ing of a government worse than that Of old King
George"
Meanwhile the leading Southern journals
not the obscure ones-but such journals a. the
Charleston Mercury, rejoice over the Sumner out
Of the impossblity Of remaining united coun-
try"
From the rawlings Of these infurate madmcn
IL Is quite refreshing to turn TO Col Fremont
who really seems to be the only sensible man in
the Presidential party, for he has said nothing
and written but one short letter, very modest
and plain spoken in favor Of the Union-the
whole Union.
We should really like TO see how some Of these
frc-eating dsunionsts would set to work TO dis
solve the Union, and bring about their rcvolu-
ton Pshaw This sort Of thing may do well
enough for ignorant red republicans from Europe;
but the idea Of expecting sensible Americans to
swallow il Is absurd, and the idea Of Mr.. Fill
more. Mr.. Buchanan and Mr.. Toombs pretending

such rhodomontade from Colonel Webb, whose
perceptions were never clear, and WAC ha1 al

GEORGE LAWS LAST WORDS TO SCROGGs AMI
| FnIMoRE.-We have received another and pro-
badly parting letter from George Law, purport-
ing to be addressed to US but in reality contain
ing a reply to the famous General Gustavus
Adolphus Scroggs-a title which is now generally
supposed to be mere nom de plume or nom de
guure adopted by Millard Fillmore, the candidate
Of the Know Nothings, at present reposing in
Buffalo Many doubt whether there exists such
person as General Gustavus Adolphus Scroggs.
Many believe that no one could live and breathe
under such a name. Were such an agglomera-
ton of appellatons to descend upon any unfortu-
nate, it would have the effect of coup de soleil,
and extngush him at once. 1t is highly proba-
bic, therefore, that General Gustavus Adophus
Scroggs is merely myth, AMI that it really
means Mr.. Fillmore himself, who halls from Buff
falo. Under this superstition we have no hesita-
ton in presenting the letter in question to our
readers, and directing their special attention to
the heavy, workmanlke blows which Live Oak
George deals in it, to the utter demolition Of the
last struggle, OF last rag, Of Know Nothingism in
the North.
sudden emanation Of the popular mind, and if its
managers had possessed the slightest good sense
or discretion, and nominated some new and
original candidate at Philadelphia such
man, for instance, as George Law-it might be at
this moment the greatest, most powerful and
most wonderful party that has ever risen to ex-
istence in this land. Unfortunately, however,
for the success Of the new party, oil the old ana
venal Fillmore politicians who had fattencd on
corruption and plumber for the three years of his
administration, jumped into the new movement,
took the lead Of its original founders and honest
supporters. and in less than six months ran il
high and dry by the nomination of a man who
finished his historical career when he lost the
nomination Of the Wing Convention in 1852. To
nominate Mr.. Fillmore was merely to exhume
dead body, and those who perpctrated the act.
and who are paradng the remains Of Mr.. Fill
more round the country, ought to be prosecuted
disturbers Of the grave-as the violators Of the
buried remains Of imbecility and corruption. In
he meanwhile. we invite our readers to peruse
The letter Of George Law, and to consider it the
iunereal Grafton over Know Nothingism and its
candidate It's leading points win be engraved
on their tomb in November.

it is not only contract but sacrament, to be

there is not much apprehension Of that republic

But IL is evident there is no established rel-
gion. by law, at this time in Mexico The const-
tuition OF 1924 declared the Roman Catholic
Apostolic TO be tho religion Of the State. and no
other should he tolerated. This constitution.
however was abolished in 1852, before the last
return Of Santa Anna, who promised TO make
another in its stead, which he did not. lie. no
doubt. would have rcafGrmcd the religious article
in the constitution of 1924 If he had fulfilled his
promise The next organic law was the plan Of
Ayutla in 1854 by Alvarez and Comonfort, in
which an article on religion was dcsignedly omit
ted. In the present year, President Comonfort
proclaimed the organic statute" TO serve as a
temporary constitution until Congress should
complete new one. In the "organic statute"
again, all alusion to religion is Intentionally ex
cluded. In the meantime the Church il deprived
Of all its judicial authority and jurisdiction over
religious or other offences; and, therefore, there
is no law against any religion, nor any tribunal

worship has never been molestcd, and has existed
for many years at the mines and elsewhere among
the few foreign congregations to be found in the
