spearance, buttas its eiitorIsaid. not as a
political party newspaper. z and promised
some eztfacts from i. Tie demand upon
Four columns last week was so great that
/ we could not fulfil that promise then, but
now give the following:

In the above extract, friend Morris
evidently gives his 6~rn' Experience as tie
conductor Of q Know.Nothipgz Journal,
and we venture the assertion lhat,is is also
the experience ofnine.tenths of the Know
4 Nothing editors Of The country. It is
Simply what We Nave always said was
The case with the leading men Of that
party, and it. is gratifying to US to see
the great head and front. of Know Moth
ingism in mis- part Of the State make the
Acknowledgements. What a most con.
lemptiblc picture he draws of tho part
which has been played by himself and
colleagues, yet wea have no doubt That
it isas true rs il is hun1iliating. Mr.. Nor
fis was the first person that openly ad,
yocated the doctrines Of Know,Nothing,
ism in this country, and is probably as
well acquainted With its machinery and
objects as any other man. His frank &C
knowledgcmcnts of!the unworty objects OF
lis party, should be a. warning to all oth>
ers. n# M n ea r-a
AS evidence that We are correct in as,
serting that the above is the experience
Of the editor Of the Gazette, we quote
again from his paper:

t'eachery Of almost all politicians, -ad-

and prudence, on our part, and to firm

AS another strange evidence that broth
er Morris has experienced change OF
heart upon political questions, we are
told that he says he shall vote for the
Democratic candidates for Pressil ent, !. not
