N'ISM. Our readers have learned llmt thcra is (ccrct political party in the country, iliitiuct from K. ism ami opposed to it. This new party goes by the name of "Sag Nicbts" meaning Say Nothings, It is a locofoco party, designed by tko Administration to bring the Catholic nnd foreign rote cn masse to its support. It has been inaugurated throughout the Middloand Western States, by tools of the Administration, spa-cially deputed for Iho purpose, and these tools havo doubtless been authorized to promise, os Ihry hate promised, that iho patron-ago of the Government will he dispensed hereafter in proportion to the success of the originators of the party: great services aro to be rewarded with Consulships, and moder- nto services with post offices and other lit-' tie jobs.

Thus much has been demonstrated by a letter of ono of the agents of the Administration, who happened to get drunk and despatch his documents to a Whig printer by mistake. Now wo have further de'vcloji-incnts, which will be found below, and to which wo invite attention. Know Nothing-Ism is entirely outstripped in atrocity by ihu new phase of slum Democracy. What siys the Termout 1'iilriot to this new secret society Will it oppose Sag-Nichtum, nnd the progenitor thereof, tho present Administration? Watch and oec. UNMASKING 01 SAG NICIIT1SM.

The Nashville Whig has furnished us with the following revelations. Here is Hag Nich-ism unmasked Here are some of the "bold, open and manly" resorts of that democratic parly whose strikers havo well nidi exhaust ed the exchequer of blasphemy in cursing the secret policy oflhc so-called Heboid the desperate extremity into which thofco denunciators of t'nth lie pro-FCriplion and oath-bound organizations are driven. See the diobolical conspiracy which theso noisy advocates of open organization have assisted celling on foot. The copy of tho circular" given below is truo to the 1 word. That it whs received from Nashville, can bo established by tho most positive nrnnf.

Whether thero is any such man in Nashvillu ns tins Monsieur lie Uspirit" wo know not. Whether Gov. Johnson "iho far neoin" Gov. Johnson" ever saw thu rcmarkablo document, is a thing of no importance. It is plain mat it was dotted and circulated at Ilia instigation of Democratic leaders.

It was sent to a long-tried Democrat of Ander-bon county a leader in tho ranks, enjoying the confidence of tho ruling (lowers, and one whom they thought would lie active in getting ns many to tako the obligation punsi-ble." Hut It came into bad bands for such uu enterprise, and like an honest man, ho haj exposed it to tho world. And whenever the reception of tin circular from Nashville is questioned, ho slands ready to gne his name and verify his statements by tho best of evidence. How touchingly they have appealed to his democrat! faith, und, as an additional incentive to action, represented tho necesity of this association to prevent tho Democratic party and Gov.

Ono of tho others" in writing to Iho Temperance Standard oil-mils that there is no reason to fear that Gov. Royco will exert any direct influence against thn present law. Indeed! after Gov.

Tom prepared and Guy supported tho resolution of the 13th of July 1851 on tho Liquor Law, which tho llurlington Convention rc-adoptcd.

In Gov. Itoyce's message, in his course' on the execution of tho law, and in his character as a mm, they havo evidence that he is sound on this question: yet they aro not satisfied. Wo hope Tom will ho bcI up for Governor and Sampson for Liutenant and in that event, it may reasonably ho expected that the verdict of the people in September next will be perfectly satisfactory. We learn that an effort is being made for a privihly called Whig State Convention at White Hivcr Junction the design being to get up a fusion of Hunt Whigs and the Ij-cofoaw, ostensibly against Know i favorite plan with tho Patriot. Red-faces nnd Dough-faces would contrast well but thero are not enough of them in Vermont to fill a moderately sized picturo-frime.

The same thing has been attempted In Maine, while In Now Yotk some of ihe K. N. Whigs havo entered into a similar speculation.

A lato number of the Washington t'nion publishes the proceedings nf certain Democratic Conventions at the South, and among them a series of resolutions adopted at a Dcmocrnic Stalo Convention or liouisiatts, held at Baton Itougo on Iho 18lh Juno. It accompanies these resolutions with tho following editorial comments: "The resolution adopted at theso meetings show nn iinralteriug ndhercnrn to tho recognized principles and landmarks or Iho democrntic parly, a calm, cheerM and abiding confidence in the future, nnd at Iho same timo tho occasion is appropriately embraced tr pay a fitting tribute to tho wisdom, patriotism and fidelity of President Pierce's ad-ministration." Hero aro two of tho landmarks of the Democratic party adopted at llayton Uotigc, as published and endorsed by tho Union 1 Il'svlved, That wo approve nnd endorse the action of our last Congress in the Nebraska Kansas net, and the principles fKtuhluhcd and III conformity with theso principles, tho people ol Kansas nave Iho right, lion tho number of that ipu-latioti justifies it, to Torm republican state constitution, with or without slavery, as they may detennino, be admitted into the Union upon an equal rooting with the other stales; ond that her rejection by Congress on account ot slavery would be a just cause for the disruption o'f all the ties that bind tho atato of Louisiana to tho Union. Itcsolvcd, That wo sympathize with Iho friends of tho slavery cause in Kansas in their manly efforts to maintain their rights, and tho rights nnd interests of thu Southern people, and that wo rejoice at their recent victories over tho paid adventurers and Jesuitical hordes of Northern abolitionism tint the deep interest felt and taken by tho people of in tho settlement of Kansas and tho decision ol the slavery question in tt, is both natural nnd proper, and that it is their right and duly lo extend their Southern brethren in that territory every legitimate and honorable sympathy and stipiKirt." ITimii these the N. Y. Eve ning Post, a democratic paper, remarks ns follows: Upon what strange times have wo fallen, when declarations like theso are set down as recognitions of the nncicnt landmarks of the democratic party to tyrannise over peaceful and unharmed inon, lo'wrest the right of suffrage from thoso who aro justly entitled to it, To dog, to cheat, to maku liilso return! of elections, ore thoso the recognized tokens of democracy It is clcnr that no honest man at the North can act with thero who thus i-hainulossly u-dopt a fraud, and avow a settled determination to uphold it and profit by it.

IT wo were to support nominations made under the avowal or hucIi principles, wo should feel that we entered into a partnership with rogues. It is remarkable with what boldness the friends or the administration at tho South op-proach this Kansas question. Wo gave, the other day, some extracts from their nowspa-pcrs, justifying the fraud, nnd declaring the determination ot iiuiiuing iqiun mat irituu a plan for the admission of Kansas as a slave stato. The resolutions passed at their Stste' Convention in Georgu make the same declarations as those of Louisiana.

Thu entire platform is in its structure similar to that laid down by tho northern wing or the American parly at Philadelphia, nt least so far ns slavery is concerned a platform or principles which wo expect to seo every northern Stalo adopt frilly. The slave Slates have, in consequence or the aid they havo received from this quattor heretofore, become overbearing nnd intolerant in their exactions and no doubt feci piqued at tho manner in which they wero snubbed up" by tho Philadelphia convention, and also by all tho lato elections in tho North. They havo been pushing tho jokn too far nnd havo a-ronsed a spirit against their darling pet," that nothing short of an annihilation of slav ery iu tho Territories and in tho District of Columbia a restorationol the compromises and the repeal of Ihe Fugitive Slave Law can ever satisfy. Slarery outside of the Stare Stales, is tho watchword, nnd let it be echoed Irom to California.

A startling political fact, having something of tho effect of an earthquake, physically, last year Ihrew Vermont, in common ith other liberty-loving Hovercignties, into a torment, out of which sprang an organization that combined forces not before acting in full concert, but drawn together by a sympathetic abhorrence or the gigantic national fraud so recently perpetrated, Inch forces triumnbed in the election of tho vcar. and thus set an emphatic seal of condemnation, a common sense, Vermont seal upon the perfidy or the act which had aroused their apprehensions and opposition.

Wo fear, too, that some of Ihe ultra Catholic journals went far beyond tno bounds of prudenco in writiug on religious subjects.
