iistiou, at tlie Know Nothings, Ho hoped the
gentleman front Chowan, would giv tlie reason,
why this alleged organiiation, ia antireoublicsn.
He did not believe in separating a set of men,
from the principles whieh they profess. It was
a new subject to him and he knew but little about
it, be confessed and therefore, would not vote for
a resolution condemnatory a set of men, unless
aorne reason Ia given for it. If the gentleman
will convince hiin, thsjt there ia a secret Dolitical
organisation in th State, called " Know Noth
