Ript. Bat this new party, you see, is very much controlled by the scuin which the *g itatioo of the old ones has thrown off. Loot around, my dear sir, snd inquire how man] of those leaders have been noted for theli piety, Of characterised by devotional feeling who now flaunt their religious robes in th< face of every passer-by. How appropriate ly dtajr they be described? ''With smooth dissimulation skilled to grace A devil's purpose, with an angel's faCe." I do not doubt the sincerity of the grca mass of those who hsve beOn deluded int< theee lodges.

Vott perceive, I have treated the move taent Of the "Know Nothings" ns n direct at tack upon'the constitution itself, because Veslly regard the pica which acknowledge \hat the Catholics sre to be excluded by vol tontary associations bound by oaths, but dc bies that any "legislative enactment" is t be resorted to for that purpose, ns benent criticism. Why, my dear sir, if the exclu sion be justifiable and necessary, should i not be engrafted upon our constitution? 1 the people of these States should ever r< erive this bastard "Americanism" ns true r? publioanism, what should prevent that opir ion from being organized into law? Is Itn in this country anything else but orgnnisei public opinion? It is a wcnk%nd misernbl design, which seeks by indirection, to efFec the disfranchisement of n portion of our citi sens, while it cowardly admits that the lav which denounces this disfranchiscmun should be preserved unaltered. I confess to you, my friend, that a fev months ago, I looked with feelings nlmos of despair upon the downward course of nu political affaire. My confidence, however, i restored; the South, always conservative, nl ways jealous of power, and comparativel; free from those sudden excitenieuts to uhio1 the denser populations of the North are sul ject to, will vindicate tho character whicl he has nobly earned.

C., Mrs. ANN D. CRAWFORD, in the 8th year of her ago. The circumstances of her early history are not familiar to us, except that she was born a Fliifer, in North Carolina, and ? trained, with sedulous care, in the principles , and discipline of the Presbyterian church. Neither can we say precisely at what tiinc she was married, nor how long God spared to her the husband of her youth. The author of this tribute became acquainted with her twenty-one i years ago, first as a pastor, then as an intimato I f.icnd, and he feels it to be due to the memory [ of one who uniformly witnessed a good confcs t sion, and has left to her children and the church the noble legacy of a consistent example, to I bear his testimony to her worth. Her character had been tried by more than the usual vicissitudes of life; but in a 1 circumstances, whether I prosperous or adverse, she 1 lustrated the meek, ? gentle, confiding apidfe of the goepeL Lett a [ widow twenty odd years ago, with a family of ( young children around her, she discharged the duties of her perilous trust with sneh rare suo cess, that skepticism itself could hardly doubt ' the reality of that invisible guidance and sup\ port wh!ch a covenant God has engaged to im r part, in promising to be a husband to tht widow r and a father to tho fatherless. She trusted in ^ His word, and, though her natural diffidence was very gnat, and she instinctively shrank from rcspoaibility, yet when put by providence > at the head of a family, and charged with the ' sole administration of a large estate, she acr quitted herself with such sigt al ability, that her most intimate friends were astonished at the wisdom, energy, and economical skill she displayed. The secret of her success is to be found in her piety. She literal! leaned on God, and I never took a step without asking counsel from him. She loved her closet, and her history furnishes a beautiful example of the consistency and harmony of a punctilious attention to the duties of i etirement and a scrupulous regard to 1 the calls of active life. She was, at the same time, fervent in spirit and diligent in business, i and all because she was instant iu prayer. She converted her secular cmplo menta into instruments of grace, and embalmed bcr common oc r cupattons with the spirit of devotion. ( lior Temper was uniformly calm and tranquil. It was not the evenness which results from good nature, or an amiable dis]K>oition, hut the sweet serenity of a mind at peace with God, and habiw i ually impressed with a sense of his favor, ller ? heart, lik a mirror, reflected the beauty and PUBLIC NOTICE tfEW GRASD DVCIIY OF BAtikfif LOTTERY LOAN.
