They belong to the new part, which boast ol its purity audits piety, and whir fa claims t hive ,rung up as a political necessity from the cor ruDtion of the two old jsarlies. In ;fje N.'T'h litis pure psrty ahttsts and d nouncea President Pierce because of his faithful adherence to the constitu tional rights of the South.

Thrae charges of his Southern Knnw-Notbing nssatlanls are jsell made, and '.he genuine friends of civil and religious 'toleration and'lreedom are rejoiced tbni his ad 'ministration is so conducted as to incur the hos tile a'tacks of this intolerant association. He has shoan his fidelity to the South as signally in his opposition to Know Nothingiscn as r.i his opposi tion to abolitionism, and in hi constant adherents in a faithful observance of those constitutional compromises which secure and perpetuate the rights of the South. It would he strange, indeed, it" the South could hesitate in manifesting ih warm gratitude o( hor generous tons to a President who has shown himself so true to his own official obti gition and to their Constitutional righ's as ti l.iCur 'he bitterest assaults in that secti m of 'ii confederacy with which, from birth and education and residence, he might be naturally expected ! sympathize upon the slavery question. Franklin Pierco has proved to every impartial Southern man (hat a Northern Democratic Presi dent can be as faithfol to the rights of Southern -men. ns guarantied by the fjoustifution, as u Sooth rru President; and it is because his administration has illustrated this important point, during a period ! deep and perilous concern to the South, that all ituly national men in that secii' n will heartily respond to the sentiment ol approval so justly ex pressed by our co temporary of the Nashville Uniaa. It was essential to the maintenance of fraternal relations between the North and the South that such a demonstration should be made. The sentiment was gaining ground in the South, ind was being made the pretext lor the formation ufa Southern party, that the Sou:h could trust none but a Southern man for President. President Vierce has effectually crushed out this dangerous sentiment, and has thereby contributed largely to ihe safety of ihe Union, by proving that he was sincere when he uttered the noble feeling: ' No JW:h, no South, no East, no West."
