WILL THEY PROVE THEIR PRoFESsIoN?-
The Democratic party claim to be actuated by
the sole desire to preserve the Union and the
Constitution, and profess to be willing to sacri-
fee everything else to that end In 1852 that
party denounced the old Wing party from
Maine to Florida because it nominated Gen.
Scott over Mr.. Fillmore for the reason Gas they
said) that Gen. Scott was not entirely sound
upon the constitutional rights of the South
while Mr., Fillmore had proved, by his admin
istration, that he was pure mar, statesman,
patriot, an unhinching friend Of the Union,
of the constitution, and of the South. No
man IN the South, or out of it, could gainsay
what Democracy then said of mr.. Fillmore
Since then Mr. Fillmore has had neither the
opportunity nor the motive to change the prin-
cipies that swayed his administration. It fol-
lows, then, that 1ir Fillmore is to-day the
same pure and sound patriot and statesman
that the Democracy declared him to be then.
IF So how can Democracy, with its protested
readiness to sacrifice everything to the election
Ola constitutional man, refuse to support Mr,
Fillmore? From their own showing admission
there is danger ofthe election of an abolitionist
if there are three candidates in the field. The
candidate now on the track is claimed by the
Americans, admitted by the Democrats, and
known by all men, to be unquestionably a
sound national man; he is therefore entitled to
the support Of all men claiming be national.
The Black Republicans sare certain to run a
second candidate; it must of necessity follow
that if the running Of third candidate will
tend to the success Of Black Republicanism,
the Democratic party will be responsible for
the consequences, if the election be thrown into
the House of Representatives and an abolition
ist be elected. Democracy has q capital oppor-
tunity, now, of proving the sincerity of their
motto, country before party q.

GFAt meeting of Know Nothing Lodge
in Monroe township, Pike county, on the 10Th
of December, at which c. G. Heath presided,
plan was deliberately set on foot to accom-
plish the ruin of two young ladies out of re-
venge, because their uncle, whose name was
Lemasters, advised young man not to join
the order!!-l Ne'0 albany Ledger.
The above Infamous lie we thought too ras-
cally for contradiction when it appeared origi-
nally in paper in this city, and we supposed
the outrageous character of the SANDER and the
source of its publication, would prevent any
respectable paper copying it. But it appears
we were mistaken, or else mistaken as to the
responsibility of the Ledger. There is nc
member Of the Lodge alluded to but who
would be disgraced by companionship with
the miserable wretch who started that SANDER
upon them. Such lies injure none but their
authors, and those who retail them from then
slanderous lips.

( NATIONAL HOTEL, NEwBUReH.-By adver-
tisement it will be perceived that Mrs. Pento-
cost, formerly of this city, has taken the Ma
tional Hotel at Newburgh. We need not re-
commend this house to those who know her
but we shall take the liberty of saying to those
not acquainted with her, that they viii find at
this Hotel home comforts to which travellers are
generally strangers. She not only sets good
table and has clean nice rooms, but she has the
happy knack of making the stranger feel at
home Her old friends in Evansville will net
fail to give her cali when they visit New
burgh. 5 s-1 .aa

Weformd his acquaintance at Louisville, where
he delivered several excellent speeches, on the
occasion of the American Convention, and re-
ceived the highest eulogies He is very
young man. but he promises to be a bright and
shining light in the country. He is true
American to the fullness of his great heart
His voice will be heard among the hills and
valleys and pleasant places of Kentucky dur
ing the campaign, advocating the great Ameri-
can cause, and supporting the claims of Fill
more for the Presidency. We are gratified to
announce that Mr. Kinney has promised US to
visit Evansville some time this campaign, and

that event. and will guarantee him as hearty a
welcome as he ever received in his life

TERRIBLE CASE OF Observation-Disclosures An
drew jackson Yanderslce, who was a distin-
guished surgeon under Napoleon in the Russian
campaign, has lost a valuable Newfoundland
dog Lou. Cou. ID 'y.asI.a 81 d
We wonder if thisdistinguished cx-surgeon
under Napoleon in the Russian campaign @
couldn't be prevailed upon to pay printers
bill? Probably some lawyer can prevail upon
this Napoleanie humbng TO pay US bill OF
several years standing. What right has he to
own one hundred dollar New Foundland dog
(the Courior says that was his value) and at
the same time owe honest printers? Ifhe really
was that valuable, it is a shame the wrong
animal was poisoned, and the master yet
lives. RI

O. The editor Of the Louisville Democrat
askes US some questions in Political faith,
which we have no objections to answering.
But we might well be excused for refusing to
answer any questions propounded by the
Democrat-because that paper has no business
asking questions unless it will answer ques-
tions propounded to its editor. 1t has been
only short time since that paper put to the
New Albany Tribune party much the same
Questions now asked US. Mr.. Gregg answered
promptly and candidly. In return, he ask
ed answers from the Democrat to certain cues
tions-but not an answer could be got. That
part of the game of ''cross questions did not
suit. Under these circumstances it is bau-
tiful piece of impudence on the part of the
Democrat to PROFOUND questions to any other
Indiana editor. Perhaps we hallanswer him
and perhaps we shall not As we should like
to ask him some in return, will he promise to
answer them? u

Singing unrds-nnistress,, Terrible.

The zone man organ' ridicules Col Crock
ett's pronunciation, and says he pronounced
certain words precisely like "a big-mouthed
corn-field negro" with 'his mouth full of hot
mush.1 To say nothing Of the total want OF
gentlemanly delicacy in thus abiding to
stranger, and which allusion, if the criticism
were true, and the fault misfortune, would
be like taunting a cripple for his ,lameness-
there is something particularly ludicrous in
this final objection to Col. Crockett. We hope
Kcntuckians will appreciate this slur upon
their pronunciation, as ninetecn-twentieths OF
the native citizens Of that State, pronounce
certain words just as Col. Crockett does. But
we do not think it was the pronunciation which
was objected to in that quarter-it was the
acoyrls themselves The speaker made them
ring in the ears of Old Liners with startling
effect They sounded like big guns and they
cut like keen swords. They were sharp point
ed as arrows, and they were barbed too, for
it appears they cannot be agitt1raaon from Old
Line memories. An opportunity will be OF
fered tomorrow evening for hearing "a few
more Of the same Sort If Old Liners don't
want their sleep disturbed by memories Of
strong words from another Kentuckian they
had better stay away-although we hope they
will be present. armed with the proper philos-
ophy to hear and bear, They have got a great
deal to stand this campaign, and we trust
they will speedily arm themselves with phi
losophical spirits. If they permit their feel
ings to be so disturbed at the first speech @
the campaign, we do not know how they vii
manage to bear up under the weight Of th'
charges to follow.
