Ballville rejects questions as Know Nothings spark debate
The piece ridicules LT Ballville for dodging queries and alleges Know Nothing influence. It mocks the Democrat editor for constant Know Nothing coverage, hints at threats, and promises continuation with a chapter on Sag Nichia and monitoring local Know Nothing activity.

In New Hampshire, a heated election preceded by mass naturalizations of Irish voters raised fears of subversion of American liberties and religious despotism.
