al Park, your Irish Zouaves; and at another point of the country, Trumbull, Ohio, it is also said, John Brown, Jr., drills daily his company of Negro Zouaves; Alas! that Ireland's chivalry should be thus degraded. Even your heroism is to be rewarded in common. Greeley, the master and dictator of both, promises that the fair fields and plantations of Maryland and Virginia shall repay not only the followers of yourself and John Brown, but the baggage smashing cut throats of the scullion, Billy Wilson, also. It is to me, I assure you, sir, disheartening to reflect that you — once my pride and boast, and a son of the most estimable of parents — should be found in a camp composed in the main of the very seam of social vice, and actuated by motives that would put to the blush the most mercenary soldier of Oliver Cromwell. I know not sir, what your instincts may be, but I would rather herd with swine. But I think I hear you respond, "The old Constitution must be maintained inviolate

Why, sir, he is indoctrinated with the convention that he is the elect viceg of God upon earth. His life, from the cradle to the grave, is pragmatical — perpetually intermeddling with the affairs of his neighbor; fastening plummet to the illicit line of his faith; s unding the hearts of men, and anath zing as pagan and pestiferous, whatever may be inharmonious with his own little c tion. His long visage, nasal twang, canting hypocrisy, and intolerable prying banished him from England to Holland, where he soon became equally obnoxious and was constrained to emigrate to the rocks of Massachusetts, from which congenial locality he has succeeded in keeping the whole continent, savage and civilized, in hot water ever since. Nursed in a horror of two imaginary phantoms — Slavery and Popery — he is an accomplished hater of his fellow man before he has begun to learn how to love God--What his course relative to the slave owner has been, we have partially seen; but his policy in regard t<

The helpless and unprotected women of your blood and lineage were ruthlessly insulted by Henry J. Raymond; you called him to account for it; you found him a coward and a poltroon; and yet you have accepted him as one of your teachers. Your brother patriot and fellow exe, John Mitchell, was proscribed in New York for expressing his opinions; the same abolition element persecuted him in Eastern Tennessee; he found a home and a welcome in South Carolina, in defending the independence of which his son recently distinguished himself. And the State you are immediately called upon to invaded Vir

, or who did not set the of his party above the opinions of the Courts? I never did. But in this connection me to remind you of a few facts. Before the election of Abraham Lincoln the dominant party of your section were notoriously opposed to "the Union, the Constitution, and the enforcement of the laws." They literally spurned the Constitution and the Congressional compromises growing out of it. They lawlessly set at defiance the decision of the Supreme Court in the famous case of Dred Scott, and reviled, in the coarsest form of bitting agate, the Chief Justice thereof.--They shot down United States Marshals, or Deputy Marshals, charge of their sworn duty, and they Congressional enactments by thus obstructing "the enforcement of the laws" They ignored the Constitution by repeatedly refusing to surrender fugitives from justice. I have sent to Kansas detachments of hired ruffians, armed with bowl, Sharpe's rides and Colt's revolvers, for the avowed purpose of exterminating th

you talk of up-holding a Constitution is thus subverted by a fanatical perjuried Sir, you cannot aid him without becoming a participator in his crimes and perjury. But you "will guard the honor of the old flag." Let me tell you that that flag belongs to the South as self as it does to the North; that, in the day of peril and danger, its honor was asserted by Southern prowess, while the parents of the dastards, who now surround you remained supine at home or sought to betray it. When, in 1774 the British Parliament declared the port of Boston closed, Massachusetts prepared to resist, and South Carolina and all the other Southern States made common cause with her; but when independence was purchased — when the Federal Government became one of the family of nations — was Massachusetts always willing to be operate with her sister States?

holicism. I will pass over similarly remote events, and ask you: Who kindled the persecutions fires of 1844, and fostered Nature Americanism? Who were the Iconoclasts of that reign of terror? Who put the burning torch into the hand of the incendiary? Who laid in ashes or ruins the convent at Chulestown, Massachusetts? Who attacked the Catholic Churches of Philadelphia? Who made a street bonfire of Dr. Morlarty's library? Who were the disciples of Fanny Wright and the apostles of Maria Monk? Who stoned the late Bishop Powell on his bed of death? Who called into life Know-Nothingism? Who sought to disfranchise the Catholic and the adopted citizen? Who sicked, pi ed and burned the humble ments of the Irish and the Germans in Cin nat, and other Western cities?

You know that Senator Seward preached the doctrine of "irrepressible conflict," declaring that Charleston and New Orleans should become "marts of freedom" according to the Massachusetts vocabulary. You know that Senator Wilson averred that there could be no peace, no compromise, no concession, so long as the foot of a slave pressed Amer can soil. You know that these men, their aiders and abettors of a purely sectional organization, have elevated to the Presidency a man pledged to carry into effect their opinions — a man who had previously declared that the United States could not exist as a nation hall slave and half breed — I mean Abraham Lincoln, of Illinois. And you have become the volunteer soldier of this pack. You drill daily, it is sold, in the Central Park, your Irish Zouaves; and at another point of the country,

rded as notorious negro stealers. And their emissaries are frequently detected tampering with the slave population of the South, cunningly and insidiously devising falsehoods whereby to incite them to insurrection, murder, rapine and escape. Now, sir, this is a feeble and imperfect pie , drawn from the memory in the hurry of the moment, of the manner in which the Constitution was "maintained inviolate" by the North, previously to the election of Abraham Lincoln This gentleman, on the 4th day of March last, solemnly swore to uphold and , in its integrity, that sacred charter Let us see how he has observed his oath since. In the brief space of two months he has managed to trample under foot nearly every important provision of the Constitution — The power to make war upon a sovereign State was denied to Congress, and the power to declare war against a foreign nation specially delegated to Congress; yet Lincoln has set at defiance the restrictions in the former case, and usurp

Irish-Americanism in the Revolution--Mr. MacMAHONahon to Mr. Mengher. To Thomas Francis Meagher, Esq, New York: Dear Sir: --You are. I have learned with regret, at the head of a company of "Irish Zouaves, " now in course of discipline, and raised for the avowed purpose of aiding the hereditary foemen of our race in the United States to conquer and subjugate the South While deeply deploring this, your fatal life-error, I am far from assuming to dictate, or even to question, the full right of your independent volition of thought and action. I am not, sir, however, blind to the singular of that Irish refugee, who, in the cause of Ireland's injured rights, rebelled against England's tyranny and oppression of motherland, but low buckles on the armor of Exeter Halfar fanaticism, to strike down the liberties of a people contenting only for the inalienable privileges of self government. But, sir, the great tragedy of this drama is not your political apostasy: it consists
