The Dayton Empire comments on the Whig papers of the north not expressing feelings openly, notes that the know-nothing organization is an ally of Whiggery north of the Mason and Dixon line, describes it as an omnium gatherum of the rag-tag and bob-tail of the four quarters of five pointsdom, states that Southern whiggery can gain nothing by alliance with the throat-cutting, church burning, negro-sympathising material of the ring-leaders, argues the South would lose by such alliance, the North gains nothing but agitation which it already has plenty of without this new nuisance, and predicts it will soon have its run and die like Nativeism about the time the whigs and abolitionists go into another four years retirement.
