But in such a contest we have always be lieved that a large portion of the Know'Nothings at the North, and a vast majority of them at the South would join the Democracy; we believe so still, notwithstanding we see many plain indica tions, that many of their leaders are willing and milieu* to join the Black Republicans, Freesoil- ers. Abolitionists and any and every faction and is:a that can be started for the purpose of making war upon the Democracy and securing the offices for themselves. That our readers may see that »ve do these Know Nothing leaders no injustice, we make the following extract from the Richmond Whig of the 6th inst: ••But, as we have said, when the admission of Kansas shall practically conclude the whole con troversy on the vexed subject of slavery, neither W e nor any Southern man could then" have the slightest hesitation in co-operating with any man ci set of men at the North, upon a platform made up of other issues and new measures. For exam ple, in the matter of a distribution of the public lands among all the States, would wo n it be jus tified in standing shoulder to shoulder with anv body—even with those who may have been known heretofore as the rankest and most uncompromis ing of Black Republicans? We surely would: and so in rtgard to any other measure or prinei- p.<, which has no necessary or legitimate connec- • rti with any projects or designs against the con stitutional rights of the South. “ I he question of slavery in the Territories be ing out of view in the canvass of ISO, and, con ft-ijin ntly, all merely sectional parties disbanded MiJ dissolved, we bold ourselves in readiness to HiU»i Psittlss-Csl. PMtrr, As Col. Joshua Hill laid down no political plat form in his letter of acceptance, and sir. pig en dorsed the principles of the State K. N. Conven tion, and that Convention having adopted no new principles at all that we could find, after diligent search, we are left no alternative bnt to arraign Col. Joshua Hill as a Know Nothing, and in favor of carrying Know Nothing principles into the ope rations of the Government. We know where he did stand, when his party were bold and in the ma jority. If he has changed his position or princi ples since then, we have no evidence of it in his letter of acceptance, or in any other public declar ation of principles by bis party. He is, then, a Know Nothing—in favor of “Americans ruling America, and in favor of the whole catalogue of 8AM 8 dogmas. Are the people of the 7th Con gressional District willing to put another man in For the Federal Union. I Hu Election la Keotacky. American Heeling. ( The returns from this State are complete in all Messrs. Editors: I was not present at the Arueri-! essell! '<d particulars. The Congressional delega- can Meeting on Saturday last, but learn the pro- , w dl stand eight Democrats to two Know ceedings went off harmoniously. Every resolu tion and substitute were passed unanimously, with the exception of thnt to adjourn, which was voted down. Before dispersing, however, Col. A. H. Kenan was nominated for the representative branch; no nomination was made for Senator. You will no doubt hud the proceedings in the Re corder of this morning. I hope you will copy them for the berietitofyour readers,and the Ameri can Party generally. Q. ' Railroad Heeling In Pulaski County. A meeting having been called by bills posted at dif ferent places in the county, a large portion of the cit- izcnstif Pulaski met at the Court House in Hawkins- ville on Saturday 8th August. Upon motion of Col. O. C. Horne, Simon Merritt, Esq., was called to the Chair, and on motion of J. J. Ijowrv, Esq. support ilie great Opposition party which shall] , tb n be organized, in compact and solid array, L T a nst the Democracy. And with a thorough and ' man w “* *ay yes, who 1ms any- regard for his i'inplete organization of all the elements opposed word. We are, then, invited to support Mr. Hill John H Brantley, Jr., was requested to Congress to represent them, w ho is in favor of I J h « Cbiinnan-«*«i proceeded to ex- . | plcin that the object of the meeting was to consider the vnow .Mottling principles ?

Have they ! hi take such preliminary steps asivoi not repudiated Col. Foster for his political acts? Hare they deny it? They will not. Why, then, should the voters of the 7th Congressional District be asked to support a Know Nothing for Congress, when they hare before them the experiment of Col. Foster, and the judgment of his friends upon h'S stewardship' No! it will not do. If Mr. •foster failed to make a worthy representative, be cause liis politics anil political associates in Congress were bad. how can the case b ■ bettered by sending Mr. Joshua Hill to do the very same things Mr. fosb r lias done ? W herein is Mr. Hill the superi or of Col. Foster? Is lie an abler man, ora better Is his politics b tter than Col. Foster’; Nothings, as follows: 1st District.—Henry C. Burnett, Democrat. 2d “ S. O.

Garrard, the Democratic candidate for State Treasurer, is elected by a majority ranging fiom ten thousand to fifteen thousand. In the State Senate there will be a tie. In the lower House thp Democrats will have a majority ofabont twenty-five. <>ppu to the Democracy, that motley and miscellaneous, t'.at hypocritical and dangerous spoils-loving con- i uncalled the national Democracy, will encoun- tis a defeat compared with which the signal over throw of 1846 was scarcely a circumstance.’’ The Richmond Whig has for many years been considered one of the leading Whig and Know Nothing Journals of the South, and here is a plain proposition from that (taper to join Black Repub licans, of the rankest sort, to put down or to erthrow the National Democracy. The Whig support solely because lie is the representative of Know Nothing principles. We much mistake the senti ment of the people of this District, if they are not tired of Know Nothing principles and Know- Nothing Representatives. They have tried one and lie lias deceived them; that was his fault: if they try another and lie deceives them, that will be their fault. We submit, however, if it is not the w iser course and the better policy to send a man to the next Congress whose principles are right. j e y • 1 o a-ks for no other principle or bond of union but and whose associates are good, and whose integri- epposition to the Democracy. What makes this must humiliating to every friend of the South is, tlmt such a proposition should come from a South- tni Journal. But this is the advice given by the R; Lmond Whig after; mature reflection for again on the 7th inst., he even reiterates the same ad vice, hear him: •■ If, then, the slavery question shall be practi- y adjusted, in the admission of Kansas into the ty and ability arc acknowledged.

A very interesting letter from G.-n Eli Warren, Chair man of a meeting held the day before at Perry was also read, which showed that Houston comity was awake to the importance of ilie enterprise, aud desirous to co-operate with Dooly, Pulaski and Irwin, in what ever action these counties might tuke in the premises, and on motion the delegates from Houston were invited to participate in the deliberations of the body. After suggestions from several gentlemen evincing u dee] interest in the project of a rail-road through this see tion of the country, Col. Home offered the following resolutions which were supported by himself, J. J. Dow ry uiuTDr. Ryan, and unanimously adopted: - Whereas, the Macon A Brunswick Kail-road Com pany is now organized, and the President of said Com pany lias expressed a desire to hear from the people of the western side of the Oemulgee river, in orderto ns Certain the amount of Stock that would be subscribed for the purpose of building said Road on the western side of said river; be it therefore Resolved, That it would be to the general interest of the citizens of Pulaski, Houston, Dooly and Irwin counties, to have the said Kail-road located on the west ern side of the Oemulgee"river, nud it is the opinion of this meeting, that the people on both sides of the river, would prefer that said ltoad be located on the west side, provided, it would come to the town of Hawkinsville and make a depot there—as it is now the seat of jus tice, and market town of Pulaski, and the market of a large portion of Houston, Dooly and Irwin. Resolved, That this meeting respectfully rcqui't the President and Board of Directors of said Rail-road Company, to have the route on the western side of the river surveyed, as soon as mnv be practicable, and make a fair comparison of the advantages of the two routes, both as regards cost of construction mnipatroif to bo received. “ ' ~ ill Theliope ufihc Sioulli.

Southern Know Nothings. They abuse and traduce the Northern Democracy every day, and exert all their power to drive them from us— they would cut away the only support on which our hopes of Kansas is based, and gladly give her up, if in so doing they could break down the Na tional Democracy.

Stand by the Northern Democrats- they have stood by you. Avoid the counsel of the Southern Know Nothings on the one hand, and ultra Demo crats on the other. The first would fill all the seats of Northern Democrats, in Congress with the Black Republicans, if they had tlie pow er—while the latter would make such demands upon the forbearance of Northern Democrats as to drive them, in self d fence, to the side of our worst the Democ acy in the next Presidenti ’ os: and for th • avowal of our purpose, with glits now before us, to sustain and support _ “IT 1 ition party, with might and main.

So the plug-uglies rallied, knocked down a few foreigners, and that, of eour.se, ended their voting. Similar exploits were performed in the eighth ward, for the purpose, and with the same effect. Five or six bullies fell upon one Irishman, and brutally beat him until he was rescued by W. Ragan. “We had hoped that the reign of terror was over in this city—as at an end after all the professions; but the law herein the upper aud lower wards is in abeyance, and out of about forteen hundred votes in the first ward about half were polled.
