Let every Democrat who can possibly go, be on hand at the depot on Tuesday, at 1 o'clock, P. M. Bring your banners and music and let us show our brethren that the democracy of old Montgomery are wide awake and preparing for the grand battle in 1856.
BEWAKE OF K. N. LIES AND FORGED CERTIFICATES.—We understand that the Sccret Order have instructed Dr. Fry to publish a lot of certificates, taken from the Louisville Journal, (Prentice's paper) to prove that the Know Nothings were entirely blameless for the horrible atrocities committed in that city. Be not deceived by these lies—every certificate there given is from Know Nothings, the very demons that assisted in the butchery, while those purporting to come from German and Irish citizens are base forgeries. The dark lantern Order finds itself rapidly sinking under its load of guilt. Murder, treason and arson, is written upon the brow of its leaders. This last attempt to wash the blood of innocent women and children from their hands, will prove as fruitless as the efforts of lady Macbeth to efface the guilt of her own crime. The "damned spots will never out." Prentice, the author of these lying certificates, is the same wretch that justified and defended the murder of poor Butler, ft was through, him that the jury were corrupted and -the murderer (Mat Ward) allowed to go free. These are facts known to every intelligent reader.
03=- The mother of the infant whose brains were blown out by a Know Nothing while fleeing from the lhimes of her burning house has been sent to the Lunatic Asylum, a raving maniac. The inhuman devil who committed the hellish act is said to be laving around Louisville, offering as an excuse for the deed, "that the d—n Irish bitch refused (o lell him where her husband was secreted." Possibly Fry may yet publish this fellows certificate. It might aid in electing McNeil.
jCJT The Cincinnati Times, which circulates so extensive/}' among the Thugs in this vicinity, denounces in unmeasured terms the supporters of Chase, and accuses them of having broken their oaths. If we are not much mistaken there will be such a breaking of illegal oaths here in October as will astonish and amaze the leaders of the dark lantern Order. Look out for the crash.
(£7- The dark lantern Order is just now badly in want of dufes to vote for McNeil. Only ninety cents to take the oath, with the privilege of seeing Sambo. Who'll go in lemons and come out squeezed?
SST The Abolition Know Nothings in this vicinity finding that the fates are against them and that their candidates are doomed to defeat in October, have betaken themsei res to gassing. It is amusing to hear thc poor nigger-loving, oath-bound devils

THE CINCINNATI COMMERCIAL KNOW NOTHINGISM. The Commercial fights hard for CHASE, and equaLy hard against the Know Nothings. It aims to become The New York Tribune of the West, but we are charitable enough to believe that will do less harm and more good than its prototype. It cannot elect CHASE, but it can and does deal some heavy blows against the midnight order.
The political contests now going on are certainly of a complex character but this want of harmony will enure to the benefit of the Democracy, "one and indivisable." Unity is strength, not that miscalled unity which springs from the forced and temporary conglomeration of incompatible elements, but that real unity resulting from sameness of structure and identity of principle. This is the unity of Democracy*.
or acts like these are wrong. Adhering to
the ancient ideas upon the subject, we can-
not do otherwise than hold them criminal.
But there are other matters alhed to these
ism administers through the law, is even
last municipal election. lhey came, in ma-
ny cases only—in squads- and found pro-
ably thousands, yet they could not be prov-
the witness—stronger than the oath of (he official. Thc life of the man who testiCed to the real truth, and carried the offense home to its authors, would not have been safe. There was an array of daggers, a battery of revolvers, to vindicate the reputation of the respectable gentlemen who gave their countenance to these proceedings. And who of all the mischief-makers of Cincinnati has been brought to justice? Of what avail has been our volumes of penal law, our array of sworn tribunals, the state of civilization of which we boast, the humanity, refinement, Christianity, of the zenith of the nineteenth century, to inflict merited punishment upon a body of ruffians among us, who openly plotted murder, and for two days established a reign of terror in this city?
These things are no secret. Would to heaven they were! Then would men have some excuse for disregarding them. But they are notorious facts, and we neither understand how men can escape their knowledge or avoid the inferences by which that knowledge must be accompanied. They began with the advent of the Know Nothing order, have multiplied with its growth, and gone on increasing with its age. They are the natural—we may say the inevitable —fruits of a secret political organization, rendered intense by religious bigotry. Its first acts—those by which its existence was known—were acts of proscription. As it increased in power, in intolerance. Professing ienderness in its religious scruples, it has inaugrated blasphemy as the language of politics. the purity of the elective franchise, it ha? out-rivalled the world in the corruption and wrong it has introduced into our elections. Essaying to defend what it terms American principles, it has either perpetrated a most insulting libel upon American character, or our worst enemies have never succeeded in painting thc blackness of the hideous truth I concerning our vices and our crimes.
WAKE UP S AKES
The Jackson Artillery received their gun this (Saturday) morning. It weighs nine hundred pounds and will carry a seven pound ball. The carriage upon which it is mounted is a fine piece of mechanism, and on the whole its appearance is decidcly warlike. Thc bo}s have named the gun •'Old Hickory."
But to our extract:—Sentinel. It may be very proper indeed to knock a full grown Irish or Dutch elector on the head for the offense of not being right on the "GOOSE QUESTION but that vivacity which sets fire to the dwelling of a citizen, and pursuing the mother of a family as she escapes from the flames of her home, bat ters out the brains of the baby that clings to her bosom, is, to say the least, carrying the joke quite as far as any principles, be they those of AMERICANS or DEVILS, ought to justify. We are told, upon authority not to be questioned, that on the day of the late election at Louisville, unoffending men were killed in the street—that persons nearly beaten to death received the final blow, while kneeling and imploring mercy, with the arms of their distracted wives thrown around them for protection—that men who had committed no offense except that of not being born on American soil, were shot down and killed, by others whom they believed to be their friends—that men were dragged from homes and even from sick beds to be slaughtered, and that men, wo-1 men and children, rushing from their burning homes, were driven—actually thrown— back to perish in the flames. J10NSE jje went to sleep, and was awak^orld has really changed very mucn,
more ominous to society than_that which it f(]L
administers without the law. From the hand of what tribunal is the actual truth concern-
ing the events at Lomsville to be aid be-
fore the world? With Know Nothingism
at the bar and on the bench, in the jury
box and upon the witness stand, as well as jert
among the coroner jury, how are the se-
cret movements—how are even thc patent facts to be judicially authenticated? The bold murderer who brained his victim in the street in the face of open day, is as secure from punishment as the midnight conspirator, who whispered homicide under the shadow of the lodge, or the incendiary journalist, who only hinted at the coming holocaust through the columns of his newspaper.
Let us look to our own case: Hundreds of men from Indiana and Keutuckj7 came to this city, by arrangement, to assist in "pre-
serving the purity of the ballot-box, at our
ON THE LOUISVILLE BUTCHERY 'Every where throughout the length and breadth of the land there has gone up a cry of horror and indignation at the blood acts
The New 1 ork Tribune, after summing up all the evidence of the case gives its verdict against the secret Order, and so has every respectable journal in the country independent of the democratic press. Look at, and ponder on the following uncontroverted testimony: "The house of John Chieves, on Main street, near Eleventh, was fired. His wife ran into the street with her children in her arms. She was surrounded by the ruffians and told that if she did not return to the burning ruins and bring out her husband for them to kill, that they would kill both herself and her child. Frantic with despair, she permitted one of them to take the child, and she herself returned to the house and told her husband what they said. He immediately rushed oui to rescue his infant from the murderous wretches, and was riddled with shot and left for dead. He was afterward carried to the Infirmary of the Sisters of Charity and has since died. He had not attempted to vote, and had offered no violence to any human being. The above particulars were detailed by his wife. "Martin Connelly, now lying dangerously wounded at the Infirmary, says he was at supper when he discovered that the house had been fired. He and his wife ran out. As soon as they reached the street his wife began to plead for his life. A few gentlemen attempted to save him, but one of the ruffians placed a pistol to his left breast and fired. He also says that a man named Munroe, boarding with him was shot at the same time. Connelly is a peaceable and inoffensive citizen. "Dennis Long, another of the wounded, lying at the Infirmary, says that he was reading a newspaper on the street, when Geo. Thompson, a friend of his and a Know Nothing, came to him nnd told him thr-t the crowd at the polls were meditating an attack upon the row of houses occupied by the Irish, and advised him to keen in his

The wretch's heart seemed to be-touched he went off with the crowd, however, almost immediately, returned again and surrounded the old man. One of them cried out: 'Let us kill the d—d old Dutch s—n of a b—h.'— He begged them to spare his life. Another cried out that he would shoot him for the fun of the thing, and immediately placed a pistol to his right breast and fired.

So far as heard from,' not the least doubt that the Democrats have elected three Congressmen, and the Know Nothings six.
In North Carolina, the Democrats have chosen five Congressmen, and the Know Nothings three. The Democratic majority on the popular vote is about ten thousand.
In Alabama, Winston, Dem., is elected Governor by a large majority the Congressional delegation stands five Democrats to two Know Nothings and thc Democrats have the Legislature.

der the most degrading surveillance and were not allowed to leave their houses after nightfall. They were taxed to support a Protestant clergyman in each parish even though it might not contain a single communicant of that faith. This persecution
of Ireland had been trodden under foot by their conquerors, but in all these hundreds of years Protestantism had made no sensible progress. The people remained stubbornly steadfast to the ancient faith. The only adherents to the Protestant church
seat in the House of Commons, and Cath-
olics were permitted to aspire, and were sometimes appointed, to offices under the government. What has been the result? Ask the missionaries who have been sent into Ireland to preach the gospel and to distribute the Bible. What are their reports? Are they not within the last few years of the most encouraging character for the Protestant cause? All who are in the habit of reading missionary reports know this to be the case. The agents of the London Society report that in districts where a few years ago it was dangerous for a Protestant minister to be seen, they are now received with open arms by the peasantry, and. their preaching i3 attended by large and attentive congregations. The Sabbath schools of the missionaries are likewise well attended. All the persuasion and all the I threats of the Catholic priesthood are ineffectual to prevei^ their flocks from attending the preaching of thc missionaries.— This is the universal testimony, and some of the more sanguine of the Protestant teachers in that island predict that in less than twenty years Ireland will cease to be a Catholic country. Catholic bishops and Catholic priests themselves confess that their influence is rapidly declining, and lament in pathetic tones the progress of what they call "heresy."
In ten years of peaceful and benevolent effort by devout Christian men, more has been done toward the conversion of Ireland from Catholicism than was done in three hundred years by fire and the sword. The missionary has gone to thc Irish peasantry with the bible in his hand, the love of God in his heart, and peace and g-ood will on his lips, and he has accomplished more in one year than a whole generation of England's myrmidons, who brought persecution, proscription, death, and desolation in their train. Portions of thc country which a few years ago could only be entered at the cannon's mouth are now traversed by men whose only weapons of offense and defense are bibles and tracts. Men and women who would have preferred torture and mar'yrdom to the abandonment of their faith at the summons of a host of Protestant warriors, are now converted by the persuasive eloquence of a warm-hearted Christian youth who has won their confidence and proved himself worthy of it.
Should not these facts—for facts they are—teach the American people a lesson? Should they not teach all who really seek the advancement of tho Protestant cause that the road to success is not through fire and blood and persecution, but through love and gentleness and kindness, such as Jesus inculcated while on earth? All our sympathies are with the Protestant cause in its conflicts with Catholicism, provided it uses the weapons pointed out in the gospel. We believe it will be a happy day for Ireland when she becomes a Protestant country, as we have faith to believe she will become, under the auspices of men devoted to the cause of true religion and the salvation of souls, instead of seeking worldly advancement and earthly honors. Let the Protestant ministry use the weapons of truth and love and kindness, put away such unchristian enginery as is inculcated in

doctors, and political blood-suckers, al! »n account of Douglass and Nebraska. They could demand a hearing for alleged influ-' ence they never possessed, and because their incendiary desires were rejected, runaway to rant about thc common sense snubbing post that beat their brains out. Impudence goes a good ways in accomplishing a dishonest purpose, but bold-faced doception will always, as it has in this case, brought contempt upon its unwitty authors. The people of Indiana never have, and if they had they never would again sanction anything like the proscriptive, abolition doctrines of the bolting faction of Know Nothings. They pretend to be Americans, and swear they will in all cases, "obey the will of the majority when fairly expressed."— Do they stand by their oaths? Not at all, but attempt in the most undemocratic, unrepublican way, to override and crush those opposing them. This they call "liberal." They are the "liberal party," advocating "liberal principles."
The deception that was so successfully practiced last fall, is still continued. Wo were informed that the K. N. Convention which assembled atlndianapolis to fix things for the 13th of July affair, throwed off thc secrecy, and that hereafter they were to make an open fight. This is all false, they have not done it, the sccret order exists the same as ever. They acknowledge no public party in the State, that we all know.— Their doings are all hid from public inspection. Do they expect the people will believe their professions for a moment? If so, they will be mistaken. It requires no seer to foretell the fate of this abolition Know Nothing party. Tho voters of the State will tii! care of them. Thc very next election will show the effect of their bungling management in their complete overthrow and annihilation as a party.— Lafuyeite American,
