dy to pay all old scores au
an account of his father. The impu-
dence, of this ‘Herald man is ‘very
oreat. He tells Ivishmen to be on
their guard for fear Dll cheat them,
and it’s himselt tnat has his hands in
their pockets all the while, and would
rob them of their votes. 1 dont know
how a man can have the assurance
to look another man in the face and
teil him to ba on his guard, while he
is actually cheating him, at the very
same time. This fellow is bawling
about Catholics and about Irishmen
and pretending to be very much afraid
they'll be imposed upon, and all the
while he is wanting to coax them to
vote for the federal candidate and
help to put in office the triends ol
Lord Castlereagh, and the like of
him, that sold Ireland and Irishmen
and brought them to wanta meals vic
tals in their own dear plentiful coun-
try. Dont I know that the high loiks
that support Andrew Gregg think
they are all of the best blood and
ought to have the beatof every thing,
and that things will ‘never be right
here as long as a poor man is able to
have a Turkey for his dipper. Sure
they wonld have us live like the poor
creatures in Ireland on Herriogs and
Potatoes, and taste meat only four or
five times a year, and eat Rye bread
stead of Wheat. If they could bring
this about under Andrew Gregg, or
make way lor it, they would be right
well pleased 3; and then Irishmen
might whistle for their rights and the
blessings they now enjoy, and which
they will long continue to enjoy if we
continue to put geod honest democrats,
like Andrew Suulze into office.
