country d preliminary to voting. The
X. N. party carried Massachusetts, IN
1854, by 81 PA majority. In its CAM

prominent part. The Legislature then
chosen, cSnsistiDg Of 4l2 X. n g aud 4
others, cent him to the Senate. He was
known Cd the KNOW Nothing Sena-

tions from several States. A National
Convention Of the party met in Phila-
delphia, Jane ii, 1855, WITH delegates
from every State. Henry Wilson was
one of the Massachusetts representa- "a
tives. The Slavery question split the
Convention. The Anti-Slavery men
bolted. They met at the Girard House
with Wilson as chairman. They issued
an appeal to the people, which re-
affirmed every one Of the old Know
Nothing doctrines. Among the sig
natures to this appeal is the name o
Henry Wilson. When both wings O

v.rcuworps OF THE CAMPAIGN

WATcHwORDs OF THE CAMPAIGN
It is certain that thousands Of voters
were influenced in 1868 by Grants
delusiye cry, Let us have peace
The people want peace, and the
strongest argument brought to bear
on them by the Republican orators in
that campaign was that Grants cleo
ton would insure it, while Seymour's
might reopen the Pandora box OF
sectional trouble. Grown arrogant by
power, the administration no longer
think it desirable to keep on the
mask. They boldly reverse their bat
tie cry. Their sentiment now is, IN
the exact words of Secretary Bout
we'll OF North Carolina:
1--WE are advised to clasp hands
across the bloody cl,asm made by the
war. I protest against this adrice."
And upon this issue they put them
selves upon the country. The Liber-
al Democracy accept the challenge.
We are perfectly willing to try the
temper Of the people on the question
of peace or war. Let it be understood
North, South, EaSbs diiN " eSt,
throughout this broad land, that
Greeley bears the olive branch and
Grant The sword; that Greeley says
"Let MS clasp hands across the bloody
cl.as,l,n and Grants spokesman res
ponds, ~ protest against this advice 2
Already the partisans Of the two cam
ditlates are at work in the spirit o1
their respective watchwords. Senator
Sumner counsels . Reconciliation" !"

soutl, at his home. The dashing Kill

4 Word to the Southern People.
frrom the La. State Register.]


Whenever man Of doubtful ante
ccdents desires to effect a pre- emption
upon the affections of the Southern,
people, he at once loads himself down
With cheap article Of sympathy and
proceeds to slobber over our gallantry
in battle and our patience and great
ness in adversely On hearing this.
sort of nonsense the gallant and pa
tient objects Of its utterance consent
to be taken in and cheated. And no
matter how often the game is played,
there is still-room for its repetition,
for we are very anxious Of being con-
victed by strangers Of having q sur
plus of the very virtue we most stand
in need Of.
The Southern. troops acted very
gallantly in most Of their engagements
with the federal forces beyond a
doubt, as it was their interest or their
duty to do. This the world has deci-
led In their favor. But that the South
ern people have acted q sensible, a
inst or patient part since the war,
we distinctly deny. They have be-
haved like children, stupidity refusing
to do that which it was their duty and
their fate to do, until it was too late
to benefit by a compliance, and then
flying in the face Of their own admis-
sion not ten minutes after it was
made. They have stood all the time
with uplifted hands which they dared
not use, threatening to strike but new
CT striking. The government they re-
fused to love they consented to accept
! as their parent authority; and the
laws they violated in secret they pub
| licly professed to respect and abide
By. In four years the entire sentiment
of the South has changed, not by vir-
tues of any reasoning that was address
sed to the people, but by virtue OF
that great force which the nation
brought to bear upon the fears and in
terests Of the people. The men who
refused to accept Of universal suffrage
in 1868, when they could have got il
with credit to themselves, are now de-
man,ling it when their good faith is
suspected in every direction. They
have lost both the benefit of being
just and tho credit Of being sensible
| by this bowing down to their preJu-
dices instead of their Judgment.
| What we need now is a little whole,
some truth. We are behind the No:tl

with the propress Of the age would
not stand, as we do, with ancient ma
cllinery md single crops. 1t .is time
that the South shut up her ears to the
voice Of fattery and opened them 20
the voice Of knowledge. She should
be ashamed Of her position, at least
we Of Louisiana should be, that States
only ten years old have better rail-
road facilities and more public enter
prises on foot than we have. But to
realize how poor we are, and how fur
behind the times, we must drive these
flatterers away in order that the truth
NAV be told. And when we see our
selves as others see us we shall be bet
ter prepared to dc better than we
have done.
