HOW ABOLITIONISM WORKS. No true friend of this cause will attempt to merge or absorb one particle of the enthusiasm now awakened, and attempt to direct it to any other. Every "ism" that has been drawn toward this great movement has entered it with a traitorous purpose, and when it has failed to transform it to its own will, or to stamp it with its own image, it has retired, carrying away with it much more of evil thin it ever brought good to its support. Look at the course of the Know Something in the packed convention at Reading. Had they been honest in their devotion to the American cause, would they not have kept within the circle of the national organization? If sincere in their professions of philanthropy in behalf of the colored slave, or if they had even considered

Americanism as a question of secondary importance, would they not have been rilling to have adopted the national

wii platform under protest? They well knew that this position would have given them 'ample room and verge enough, to discuss any question, however irrelevant to the causo of true Americanism. But this did not suit their unholy purposes.

or to ruin ican movement tributary'to abolitionism, or to destroy the American organization. History teaches us not to be deceived by sounds.

Americans, wrongs, AMZRICAKIIM rioHfo.

The difficulties which now sttiroind our brethren in Ohio liave resulted from over anxiety to insure iriamediate success. They abandoned for a moment the hroad path of American principles, and took tne dark and devious ground of expediency. We have at this moment in Ohio, one hundred and ten thousand loyal-hearted Americans! The Democratic party has one hundred and two thousand, according to their vote polled last year. The abolition vote,! proper, in that State, may be summed up as amounting to thirty thousand The Americans deluded by the claptrap cry of "anti-Nebraska," may possibly reach seventy thousand, a majority of whom may be drawn towards Chase, whom they recognize as the champion of "anti-IJebraskaism leaving some forty thousand'votes to be divided between the American party and

The tenor of his remarks,are good and well deserve the attention of thinking men—they are applicable to the times.

After referring, in excellent style, to the great American cause, Mr. Levin said:

They offer their votes, fraudulent and perjured, in exchange for employment, and invoke government to prostitute its high purposes by a wholesale proscription of the American laborer. And have they not succeeded? Enter your custom houses, your post offices, your navy yards and arsenals, and other departments of government, where men who have grown gray in the service of their country are subjected to the torture, and driven from position to make way for foreign outcasts and this, too, because they were unwilling to give up to a corrupt and corrupting party, that which was meant for a pure and patriotic country. Let these victims of foreign influence feel that every noble soul who suffered in this cause, though wronged himself, still adds anew and noble power to American right. In the facc of such wrongs as these, the powers that be, in Washington, inquire whether the country is to be forever agitated by these American brawlers, whether the hammers of discussion are to continue to resound throughout the land? These questions cannot be answered until another is resolved. Are

Resolved, That we, the People of the First Congressional District of the State of Pennsylvania, in mass meeting assembled, hereby ratify and endorse the national platform adopted in this city by the National Council.

Resolved, That we stand by the spirit and letter of the Constitution of the United States, as our guide, notwithstanding the efforts of designing demagogues to substitute the Declaration of American Independence for the organic law of the land.

Resolved, That we adopt the resolutions passed at a late meeting in Hamilton county, Ohio, as a part of our political creed, and that we will not be induced by any pretext or pretence to yield our support to fanatical men or measures.

Resolved, That Americanism in its broad, legitimate sense, is paramount and above all other considerations.

Resolved, That the Abolitionists, who seek to control this great American movement, are but the tools of the Jesuits, who seek to overthrow the republic.

Resolved, That conservatism*is the basis of Americanism, nnd constitutes our true element of success.
