Stabbing in the Back.

The New Orleans Courier of the goth ult., contains
the following:
For five days the Delta, of this city, has contained
every day, with one exception, an article calculated
to do damage to the Democratic party 1t has not
come out IN open opposition to our candidates, nor
has IT taken ground against doctrines but IL has
tried, in various woud-be-cunning ways to depreci-
ate Mr.. Buchanan, to lind fault with his nomination
to damn him with faint praise, to announce q want
OF enthusiasm in the party in regard to him in short
to do everything which can be done by real enemy
bearing the garb Of friend 1t has steadily persist
od, for nearly week, in doing everything which in.
ternal trcancbcry can do TO njure the man and the
party il is supposed to profess to support "Willing
to wound and yet afraid To STRIKE" ii has been at
tempting in the dark, and by ndirection to stab Mr.
Buchanan in the back in such way as at once to
do him double damage and still leave for escape
OF course the Delta has right to support Mr.
Buchanan and the Democratic party, or not, just as
1t chooses But it has right, under cover of sup
porting them, to say things calculated 10 do them
all the injury in its power. This shooting from be-
hind hedge-this saying "lIow is it with thee, my
brother" and at the same time planting u dagger
under the brothers fifth rib--will not serve the Gun.
ming purpose intended. 1t does not, and cannot i'm
pose ON the party or the public.
We warn our friends that the Delta is working in
the interest OF our oppOnents-that it intends the
Democratic party evil and not good--and that all
its statements are to be taken adverse assertions
and not as Democratic admissions. We especially
warn city Democrats that its is calculated
to do them all the mischief that it can. We warn
all Democrats, everywhere, that for the present il
is their enemy, and not their friend.
This just and mertcd rcbukc, which will be adj
mtted to be deserved by every who has observed
the course the Delta has thought proper to pursue
toward the Democratic nominee for President, from
the time of his nomination.

The Louisiana Delegation.

The N. o. Delta, of Thursday last. contains some
tart structures on the course of the Louisiana Dele
CATION in casting their vote for the nomination Of
presidential candidate. We do not understand the
Delta. in that article, as condemnng In any manner
OR obccting to Mr.. Buchanan. but rs exposing the
course of the delegation, In casting the vote Of the
State contrary to what fully believed from facts
known to all to be the wishes and feelings of large
majority Of the democracy of the State Whilst we
hail the nomination of Mr.. Buchanan with the high
est qualification and pleasure, VIC nevertheless believe
that 1t was imperative upon the delegation, just to
the majority, and compliment due to Judge Doug.
las that the vote of the State of Louisiana should
have been first cast for him in accordance with the
Will OF the majority, not positively declared. II is
true, but SO clearly expressed not to be misnder

This is another instance which goes TO show the
necessity of instruction and Of holding delegated
agents strictly accountable for the discharge of i'm
portaut and delicate public trusts, and may serve
for the future, to make the Democracy more careful
In having their feelings and wishes fully expressed
and carried out. The vote of the State might have
been cast for Judge Douglas first and then have been
given to Mr.. Buchanan. In that case the delegation
would have discharged its duty faithfully to It's con
stitucnts. and left ground of dissatisfaction and
complaint. All this is matter, however, that rest.

the nomination :-now, he is their choice, and nc
circumstances, of the character alluded to in this ar
tcc, can, or will be sufficient, to effect the feeling

has the full and entire confidence Of the whole De

G;ss- The editor of the New Orleans Bulletin, thus
closes able and temperate review of the present
disturbances in California: These exciting events
in California, In our humble Judgment. teach most
important and impressive lesson, that people In
other sections of the country would do well to heed
and remember. 1t Is that, in this country at least,
II is dangerous to wink at fragrant crimes or permit
their authors under any pretense whatever, to es-
cape due punishment Every such failure to yind-
cate the assaled majesty Of the law in1icts blow
upon the peace and welfare of society, and sooner
or later the evil effect is certain to be felt in
way or other. It has become popular saying to a
most discrediable extent in the United States thnt
man with plenty Of money cannot be punished
for any crimes he may commit ind hence that there
is justice only for the poor who violate laws. TO
great extent this is popular fallacy facts abun
dainty show, but that there is truth, and too
much truth in it, readers do not need to be in
formed In every instance where villain pcrpc-
trates outrage upon the laws aud escapes through
the aihlcssness or nkewarmness of the police, the
quirks of the law the influence Of friends the power
of money, Or the more fragrant conniyance of judi
cal officers, the most sacred interests Of society
through all its ramiHcations receive shock whose
recoil can scarcely fail to be perceived and which
may involve in its results the very persons who have
brought about the mischief. The theme is fruitful
in suggestions, but we have not space to pursue it
further.

Know Nothingism in New York.

The Fillmore National Club Of the City of New
York has turned over to the Black Republican cand-
date Fremont. Al meeting held at their Club
room on the evening of the 9th ult., after I'm ad
dress from their President, they adopted series of
resolutions which we append. Thus it is, Know-No-
thngism at the North is seeking its proper level and
we may look for general reputation of Fillmore,
and common concentration upon the Black Rcpub-
lican candidate.
WHEREAS, An emergency exists 10 the political con-
ltion Of the country, in which 1t is incumbent upon
every citizen of the republic to give expression to
his views in regard to the reorganization of the fed
cral government through the medium of popular
election and whereas the National Club of New York
has been foremost in expressing Its opinions upon
the politicul issues that have agtated the Union :;
Therefore Resolved, That the National Club of the
city of New York recognize in the aggression of the
South upon Northern Interests as exempfed In the
repeal of the Missouri Compromise, which Henry
Clay and bis compatrios enacted TO remain nviolatc
for ever--in the blood and cowardly attack upon
to restrain freedom Of speech the inalienable prerog
alive of an American freeman-and in the cruel
butchcries of froe State American settlers in the ter
ritory of Kansas to facilitate the spread Of inst
tuition that is blight and curse to free people
An attempt on the part OF the South to form and
maintain sectional party, the tenets OF which are
repugnant to the feelings Of every true American
freeman.
Resolved That in view of our duty as Americans
who cure for the selection of good men to office
who will exempfy our principles than for the tri-
nmph of partizan organizations, we will sustain for
the Presidential aud Vice Presidential Offices to be
