AuPg.is of'the tine lHaform —Utter Jneons latency of ii — Einal Abandon ment of all Fined Erinrijilrs. Head tha Know-nothing Platform and oonaider whether the following running commentary on it is not correct. A‘rt. 1. Hypocrisy. Art. 2. Hypocrisy, buncombe and im pudence. liow well it comes from those who have conspired to overthrew the j constitution, and against “the civil and | religious liUnties” of a large class of American’citizens. Art. d. The cloven foot displayed ; i.c., monopoly of all the offices fertile Know nothings —the only real object of the Order. Art. 4 Wluat is the use or meaning of inserting in a political platform one j of tli" ordinary maxims of law? Art. 5. Stultifies the Know-nothings, if strictly interpreted, according to the grammatical sense of the words, but in its real meaning, as they intend it, is proscriptive, persecuting and atheistical. Let us read it again: 5. No person, should be selected for political station, (whether of native or foreign birth) who recognizes any allegiance or obligation of any descrip tion to any foreign prince, potentate, or power, or who refuses to recognize the Federal and Flate constitutions (each within its sphere) as paramount to all other laws, as rules of political action. This means “No Catholic should hold office, whether of native or of foreign birth.” For every Catholic recognizes an “obligation of some description” to the Pope, who is (accidentally) a foreign i’rince. However, the last clause, in terpreted according to the meaning of the sham-Americans, is atheistical: for every one who believes in a God will re fuse to recognize any human constitutions as paramount to all other laws, as rules of political or any other action. This article establishes slavery in its most rigid form in the South, excommunicates from the sham-Aiucrieuu party all the “higher-law” opponents of the Fugitive Slave Law, and confirms polignmy in l iah. The English of it is that we; ought to obey men rather than God.— | Tiie English of it is that in the presence • of the State, that is, of tlic majority, no man lias a right to have a conscience.— This is the shameless, atheistical, non- American, anti-constitutional doctrine of the Know-nothings. We prophesy ! that they will yet reap the fruits of it. It delivers them over to the slave-hold ers of the South, who will drag the ord or ui chains at the chariot wheels of the “Slave-power,” and oblige the free-soil j nnd abolition members to choose between ! their principles and their party. It cu- { dorses Douglas in his bitter sarcasms ou i the 3,000 ministers who ventured to tell | the Senate of the I nite.l Stales that there was a law of God above the Con- j stitution. The negro-loving members of the Philadelphia Convention did well to bolt at this platform, hut they bolted ?* the wrong article. It is this anti higher-law, anti-law of God, anti-Chria tain, infiidel, atheistic, conscienee-pro- Mvibing article that they ought to have bolted at. For in the presence of this article it is obvious to say “ Slavery is guaranteed by tliu Constitution—the re covery of fugitive slaves is guaranteed by the Constitution, and by laws which the Supreme judicature appointed by tho Constitution has declared constitutional: this Constitution and these laws are par amount to all other laws, as rules of po litical action, therefore say no more, but obey.” Art. ti. Means, accordingly, that the Fugitive Slave Law shall be executed. Art. 7. “ Tho recognition of the right of the native horn and naturalized citi zens of tho United States, permanently residing in any Territory thereof, to frame their constitution and laws, and to regulate their domestic and social af fairs in their own mode, subject only to the provisions of the federal Constitution, with the privilege of admission into the Union whenever they have the requisite population for one representative in Con gress,” clearly endorses the Kansas-Ne braska bill, for favoring and carrying out which tho 13th article weakly, incon sistently and insincerely attacks the Ad ministration, and stigmatizes its policy as “reckless and unwise.” If it was “reckless and unwise” iu the Adminis tration to repeal tho Missouri Compro mise, as the 13tli article of this rickety platform avers, why docs the platform i itself, iu the 7th article, recognize the principle which necessitates that repeal V : This seventh article is Squatter Sove reignty all over, neither more nor less, , ami can there he imagined anything more contradictory, self-stultifying and double-faced, more insincere and hypo critical, than to affirm, ns their platform does, “ tho right of native born and uat- j nralized citizens residing in any Terri tory to frame their constitution and laws and to regulate their domestic and social afairs in their own nmtlr," and at the same time to denounce tho Administra tion for repealing the .Missouri Compro mise, which directly excluded and super ceded this pretended “right?” Why, what a nose of wax is this platform I—j You look at it iu one moment and you think you have got a regular fire-eating pro-slavery platform. You take another look and it is a nigger-worshipping and free-soil nose that you have iu your hands. You thought it was Sam, and it turns nut to he Sambo; and in fine, to tell which it really is would puzzle the 1 lather of Kuow-uothingi himself, whose diabolical facility of disguises and put ting forth douhte-hiced platforms is old as the platform which cheated Five. Art. 8. Weave glad to agree with something in this platform, and have no fault to find with this article, except that it is iu direct contravention of Art. 7. For it'the native born citizo ns resid ing in a Territory hav< the right, accord ing to All. 7j lanwgulatc their domestic affairs in their own mode, with what (ace can you ‘ ‘enforce” on them the j principle of not allowing suffrage and 1 offices to uon-naturulized foreigners?— Suppose they choose to do it. Ah ! hut j the meaning is this. 'lf the Squatter-’ sovereigns say that nrgrucf shall t>e stave* \ in their territory, we must not interfere; 1 with thorn. Hut if they say that aliens shall vote, then wo shall interfere with | Squatter-sovereignty. Squatter-sove reignty is good to protect Slavery, hut not to extern! freedom. To deprive a black man of liberty altogether, is a proper i consequence of Squatter-sovereignty.— To confer political liberty ou a foroigu | cr, is an abuse of it. Art. 9. I nwi.se, hut let it pass. Ait. 10. “Opposition to any union of : Church and State; no interference with religious faith or worship; and no test ontlis for ofiico.” W'liat unparalleled effrontery ! A par ty which lias not only prescribed as a test for office the renunciation of the Catholic religions but bus made the tak- I dig of its own secret bonds and oaths a I condition of cnndidatcsliip to any office! A party whose evident aim is to unite Church and State and which avows its j intention of “interfering” with a dogma of tho Catholic faith—namely the su ! premacy of the l’opo ! The dodge by j which this impudent inconsistency is the following. They do not, forsooth, inter fere with our “religious faith,” as such, but with our political doctrines. The fable of the 1 Volf anil the Tennb was nev er more aptly illustrated than by this article of the sham-Amcrican platform. A Know-nothing platform can stand the “higher-law” of the Massachusetts ne gro-lover, which denounces tho Consti i tution as a man-stealing instrument, and i a law of Congress as an infamy; but it i cannot abide the higher law of the Pope, i which teaches us all to obey the lawsofour i country, and that "slaves should obey ■: their masters.” This article is mere r hypocritical buncombe, which in relation • to Catholics adds insult to injury. Art. 11. Free and thorough investi i gation into any and all alleg:d abuses of 1 public functionaries, and a strict ecOno -1 my in public expenditures. Buncombe, and dishonest buncombe. 1 When a party that wants office talks of I a “ strict economy in public expendi j tures,” let every tax-payer immediately j button up his breeches pocket. It is i the fore-runner of such an inroad upon I the public purse, as our Know-nothing I administrations can everywhere show.— • lb, Joseph lfiss! where is thy virtuous blush., when thy Know-nothing btethren talk of “ free and thorough investigation 1 into any ami all alleged abuses of public j functionaries . Let us have tho accounts j of the Committee at Worcester, and tell jus who paid for Mrs. Patterson! “O itrumpery! O Morris !” as Yellowplush !says. Hut we cannot follow this rickety plat i term any further. There is hardly a plank left that holds on to its neighbor, j Tho 12th article plainly says that the Fugitive Slave Law shall be executed, | which agrees, we confess, with the nom ination of Millard Fillmore, wlig signed it; and the 13th denounces tho present administration for a “truckling subservi ency to the stronger powers,” which de nunciation sees the light rather inoppor tunely by the side of the Marcy and Clar endon correspondence ; and we are led to historical inquiry whether Millard Fillmore’s administration did not truckle to and tremble before Kossuth. The epithet of “ insolent and coward ly bravado” applied to the course of the Administration towards tho “ weaker powers,” somehow, in like manner, calls to our mind the llulsemaun letter of Mr. Fillmore’s Secretary of State, issued to bully Austria when Austria was suppos ed to be “ weak;” and “therefore, to remedy existing evils, and prevent the disastrous consequences otherwise result ing therefrom” (a remarkably lucid sen tence) “wo would build up 11 io Ameri can party upon the principles hereinbe fore stated.” It is a foundation of sand, and when ; the floods of next November come, the edifice, we apprehend, will be found no where; more especially as tho 15th ar ticle gives liberty for annulling all the existing constitutions of tho Order, and the Kith leaves all its principles" open to discussion. It would he very unwise, therefore, to vote the sham-Amcrican ticket, or commit himself in any way to the sham-American party, for its own platform kicks over its previous consti tutions, and openly declares that it lias | no f eed and ascertained principles. — ;Lt iah r. E using Wood.—ln a country like ' ours, where wood and timber are daily growing scarcer, would it not be wise for our people to devote a few acres, in some appropriate portion of their farms, to the growing of wood ? It would cost . but little time or trouble, and, with some eari. would, in fifteen or twenty years, be a small iniucof wealth. Capital thus ; expended would yield four-fold profit I more tliuu if put out at legal interest, el even the usurious interest of ten per j rent. I have tried a good many years to! raise oaks, ohosnuts, and other kinds of trees, but with no success, planting than |as I did in drills, in oomuiou soil. Not imc would sprout. In tbe sunimor of 1853, 1 noticed several sprouts as 1 was : working under a chestnut tree, and in i digging down through tho leaves 1 came i (o (he nuts from which the sprouts sprang. 1 took tiie hint, and the next full I pro cured a quantity of nuts, thinking 1 would imitate nature ; I prepared a rich bed. and strewed the nuts thickly on top of the soil, covering them with leaves. 'All the nuts came up nnd nredoius finely. This manner of planting is only to be observed for those trees that are designed for transplanting. For wood lots, I would recommend the following mode of planting: Select a still day. Let one malt drop the seed eight feet apart each v.-hv. Let another man follow with a load of heavy soil, sprinkle on justenough to keep the leaves from blowing away. Two men in this manner can plant one I nero in one day with case.-'- A’.r. j BALTIMOJiE ADVERTISEMENTS.

IT is n settled point with all chemists nnd scientilic farmers that Peruvian guano onlv i supplies about one-half of the ingredients ne- j ecssary to grow Wheat, Rye, Oats, Corn, Veg- j •‘tables, kv.., and that is the reason that land becomes impoverished and exhausted by its ! continued application, whereas I)e Blirg’s \ Super Phosphate supplies more than is required to grow the various crops, and is quite as cf- . fectivft in its action of inducing early maturity as the Guano—much more durable and fertili-! ring to the soil, and less volatile. It is adapted for all crops and' all soils, as a proof of which we have testimonials from Ma ryland to Georgia, and every couuty in Mary land, and from Virginia, from gontlemen well ] known ns practical fanners, some of whom | have tried it for the past two rears with plea sing results. R. McGregor, Esq., Prince George’bcounty, Md., says : “De Burg is in my opinion far su perior to No. 1 Peruvian Guano. A small hantffull to each hill produced 300 barrels of corn on 25 acres of land, that never yielded more than 8 barrels jrer acre before.” Win. It. Barker, Esq., Prince George’s Co.. Md., says: “I have used 1)$ Burg on both Corn and Tobacco and was much pleased with the result.” Capt. Murry Mason, Fairfax, Va., says : “ I gave Dc Burg a fair trial and it fully equalled No. 1, Peruvian- Gna.no.” Andrew Kllicott, Esq., Howard county Md., says : “I consider De Burg $lO per ton cheaper and more lasting than No. 1. Peruvian Guano.” Hugh McCall. Esq., Anno Arundel county, Md., says: “ I have used l>e Berg on my corn and Spring crops, ami prefer it to No. 1. Peru vian Guano.” John Hamilton, Esq., Charles county. Md.. says: ‘‘The result from De Burg was fully equal to my expectations, producing a fair growth on very thin soil.” Val. S. Brunner, Esq., Frederick, Md., savs: “Farmers in this vicinity are much pleased with Dc Burg, aod readily give it the prefer ence.” Wc also reft r to Samuel Rente, Fsq., Carroll ' county, Md., Win. If. Marshall, Esq., Wash ington county, Md., B. Davenport, Esq., Jef ; ferson county, Va., James T. Earle, Esq., i President of the Maryland Agricultural Soci ety, and Col. Geo. Forbes, Prince George's county, Md.. and to thousands of Farmers in j I Maryland and Virginia who have found great j benefit in its application, not only in the growth of crops, hut improving the land quicker and cheaper than by any other known Manure. 300 pound* per aero will produce 35 to 40 bushels wheat, and 150 pounds, 5o to 70 bush els of oats; ami half a gill to the hi. 1, or 250 to 300 pounds, will produce VO to 00 bushels of shelled corn per acre, upon land that never grew liolf the quantity before.
