0T We do not wonder that the journal dis
likes to have its Know Nothing antecedents
called up just at ais time. They are annoying.
It is notorious that the Journal was very rank
Know Nothing paper in 1854; and it was res.
ponsible for getting up Its share--be the
same more or less--of the murderous excite>
ment then directed against the foreign born
in this country; and it is, to the extent of the
influence it welded, responsible for the same
condition Of rowdyism and murderous attacks
upon foreigners in Philadelphia and Baltimore
This execrablo conduct is the Legitimate fruit
growing from the pyiReiple which tho Journal
advocated in 1854, and which it is now SO anxa
ious to conceal. 1t has certainly great impu,
dence to bring TO the denial of what is true in
fact and logic. Its assurance in nOp pretend
ing to be champion for adopted citizens ought
to bring upon it the contempt Of all intelligent
men who know its antecedents.
