To,, this Deacon White, tho editor ofthe Pittsburgh Gazette, o- gentleman who is notorious for. his opposition to foreigners; especially, tliOße who adhere to'the Catholic religion,-Bays: “ Now if -- the fact was not before him who .could believe thatoay paper, possessed of tho, least ebarnoter • fojjrespectabiUty, and with any regard for truth, v tptddihavc uttered so barefaced tf falsehood, &c„” Knowing 'Mri.Wijite, of the Gazette, ns wo do, to : be unscr upulodo and dishonest-, in his course as on editor; we would, .be-jSgrtcntyto leavo unno ticed Ws'empfy denial of the truth wo asserted ; but, os it iso sdbject in which we may say the •whole ham£a family Jo greatly interested, par ticularly that portion whose fortune, or misfor tnaedt is, to owe their birth to foreign climes, wo deem it advisable to say a few words in vin dication of the truth of out declaration. It is . ■■■■.- easy for men to make assertions, and it is, as • easy to make denials; but we will have tho G a■ setto man to understand .-that when we mate an assertion, we hold ourselves bound, and in Teadi ' ness te prijve ivor if in error to magnanlmpusly retract ilVe stated emphatically that no mauin this'co.ualrv has crer offered so high a price for the ofifee of President of tho United States ns Gen.. ‘Winfield ’Sentt.. lie hat offered to destroy and Hast every hope of the foreigner from ever cn joying'iht blessings of citizenship in this free land,— - and mow wo will prove it from tho publicly de clared principles of Winfield Scott. In the New - York Courier iv Ktujuircr of July “Ist, 1552, edited by James-Watson Webb, awhig, and sup porter of Gen. Scott, we find what tho editor calls a-correct copy of Gen, Scott’s letter, written in November, 1844, to' George Washington Reed, of Philadelphia, As wo havo published this letter lit full so repeatedly, It Is nnt important ' to our present purpose now to do so ; ; we..wiH content onweWBss''nad prove our position by J making' a short extraot. In General Scott’s letter, he saynp«t>,Should any considerable nurii: ber of my countrymen," assign- mo, or desire to give mo n prominent position before tho public, • 1 shall take lime to methodize my views on tho great question you have proposed. Thoso views y had their origin, iu the stormy election in tho , spring oMB3G,.and were confirmed in the week that Harrison electors were chosen in New-Tork. On both occasions.l was in that city, and heard in the streets, the cry; dovmsctth lA# jVetfctj/ It was heard in almost every group of loreigncrs, as the signal for. rallying, and outrage. Fired with indignation; fwo friontesat down with me in my parlor, aTtho Astor House, (Nov. 1810,) todraw np nn nddresa'is-iesignei- to raily an American party. ' The day after the election I started for the SoSth; 'and have never known wliyon r-cj>- peal Was cot published. Probably the election of General Harrison rendered its publication at that time unnecessary in tho opinion of my two-friends. ..../sioio hesitate in extending theperiod. of residence before naturalization, and a total repeal of all arts of Congress on the subject; jit s«nt> txcmhes xo run IA-rrEn.” Gen. Scott here .says, , that should tho people of this country desire to place'him Inn prominent position before tho • public,"he-will take time to methodizo his views. Those viewß-having had their origin in 1830, and were confirmed in 1810,when he formed the basis of a Native American party; and, in 18-14, he avere that “his mind inclined to tho opinion that all laws on tho subject of naturalization should be repealed.” Thus preventing and dc* barring all foreigners from becoming citizens, .Hence wo said, and have hero proved, that “Ho ■ i has offered to* dostroy. and blast every hope of the from ever enjoying the blessings,of citizenship In this free land.” The Gajette mau also takes his exceptions to another truth-wo uttered. YVo stated that Gen. SCott-had slightly, modified his views in regard to the policy of admitting men of other coun tries to, the right of citizenship, andsaid: “That if elected; he.will propose an alteration in our naturalization Jaws, 'Bo that a foreigner may, by humhlipg. himself, become a oitizen, if he will enter tho atmy us » private soldier, and fight a ■ year. -Now;wo re-assert, that Gen. Scott, did advocate such a- chango in-enr-naturalization . laws in a series •of articles which appeared in the National lutelligeneer, over tho signature of “ Amp.eiccs.” 'Ho recommcndcd the immediate repeal of all naturalization laws, and the enact ment of, a law denying the right of suffeage.to, oil foreigners, except those who would servo o cerlain'timo in the Army or Navy. The Gazette also says; “ tho Post speaks of tho hot of catering the army, in the time of war, ns an nctyOf humility." Now the Deacon'Unco this was a gross mis statement. We said it was humiliating to a for. eigoer, j„ order to secure to himself the rights and blessings of a-freeman, to be under the necessity of fighting in the rants of the Army for n yew, as Gen. Scott would hare him to do, and we flay® o 61111 - We here take occasion to saythat iuooy ovent the election L ol Gen. Wlhfield Scott would be a great calamity, not only ta our country, but the world. To the foreigner it would bo peculiarly so. 'General Scott’has declared ho would only accept the Presidency provided he would not be required to renounce any of his principles, for said"he, “hly principles are coimotlons,” and seeing, as must all honest reading-men* that for many years the General has entertained hostile feelings towards the foreigner, “concurring fuUy in the principles of the Philadelphia movq ment;”—-a .movement which rcsnlted in the burning" and desecration of churches, by an nn ndymoh of Native Americans who were “ weed with 'iSDiaKATioi” 'at tho' Catholic citizens of our country, what are wo to expect than that he would cany out his “convictions” in bringing about, either a total repeal of all laws t on the subject of naturalization, and thus ** ties- and blast every hope of the foreigner from "'l*/ '*• -ever enjoying the blessings of citizenship in this free land,” or cause him te fight a year in oar Army orNsvy to eocureit- ■ < Wears glad the Gazette has noticed us and our article; it will serve the purpose of calling the attention of a large portion of onr .popular Gan to a subject in wb;ch they arp vitally inter ested. -y r H -a r-« 1» WHAT DID SCOTT SAT AT CT.irtrgf.awni - - This is a question which in ft short time Till bo difficult to explain. -Wiien hntnipie his speech at Cleveland, all the papers thhre agreed in their report of it, and thejpi&ndo fj.

Scott to refer •tohis Irak follow, citizens? When on Irishman acquires citizenship he is an American citizen; and in all elections ns much so as those who are to ; tho “manner born/’- -This distinction la ntSther complimentary or .pleasing te them, and. no sen sible Irishman will thank General ScoU for con tinually, parading before the people thatthereie a distinotion belwcenan American cittzeh' and am Irish American citizen, and that he haaion ccivcdp most unwonted lovo for the “brogno" of the latter. In alt civil rights they are identi , cal; and at the palls the vote of the native bora anil that of the naturalized citizen-lias thesame influence. Aa to his Cleveland speech and his :notico of that imaginary Irishman Who ; shouted “ hurrah for Scott,*' we agree with the K. T. Day Book that it is all 11 blarney,” and the very silliest kind at that. We oan only wonder that any man of sense can now bo so crazy as to contcnd for tho superiority of. Gem Scott's quolifinations-for President. Wo will venture to say that no country-justice could:; be soared np,. who could not make n more rcspeotablespeech than the above. .We shall believe before long the assertion of Greeley, in 1840, that “Gen, Scott is a vain, conceited:coxcomb, with more epaulettes than brains.” He says he is travel ing for.tho purpose of selecting a sito for a Mil itary Hospital-;' from present indications, he ought to bo tho first candidate for admission. But it appears that tbo only portion Of onr citizens of foreign birth; with which Gem Scott has fallen desperately in love, ore the natives of Ireland. Ho is, certainly aware that we have among -us citizens frazn.: all- countries ; and pa triotic citizens, too. We will -instance the Gor mans. Is he, or are his friends aware, that a Urge portion of our independent voters are Germans? They have s dialect of their own, aad their accents are aapeeuliaras tbo "brogue” of tho Irishman which Scott so very unscrupu lously draggedinta his speech (1) at Cleveland. Wo would liko to know why they have, been slighted by; him in his new-bomlovo for foreign ers, and why their peculiar modeof. expressing themselves should not excite his fraternal feel ing, os warmly os did the remark attrihnted to an Irishman at Cleveland. - If the General desires to succeed with the foreigners, ho must commence billing and cooing with the Germans at once. His <• blarney” with Irishmen has not worked well.- They all know that he bos not repeated of his former slas, when tho. party of which bo is the father, maltreated their countrymen, and then hung them - upon the hooks of the market house in. Philadelphia, nndtbeywilbnot trusthlm uolm ho does full penoneo for his former persecution of them. His attempt to bo fUnny about their “brogue,” is no apology.for hisfonzter denun ciations- of them, and uotil ho explains what “ fired him with indignation"at tho Astor House, he hod better not affect the “brogue,” and he may.es well let the “blarney”, alone, for every attempt he makes at it only serves to show his folly in a more ridiculous light. Wo would ad vise him, now to torn bis attention to our fellow dt!zoti9 of German birth, and inform them ond tell; them how he “ loves to hear. their rich brogue.” It would be . just os sensible and ef fective as his jokes upon tho peculiar accent of Irishmen.

Commonwealth, ’’ relipcting upon my official integrity, as: Commis sioner of the Cumberland Road. I bad hardly supposed that even party mafeMbmer would have prompted any cue, having the slightest - preten sions to decency, to make such & yrozi and groundless charge against me, in the midst of a community where I drew my first breath, and where I hadspeat ray entire life, andfrom whose good people I have received. sa many flattering evidences of tbeir confidence and esteem. If the circulation of the Commonwealth was confin ed to the limits of Washington county, wbere its character and mine ore bothkno wn, ! should aotdecm it nesesesary - forms to sotice.tbo arti tlo refemd to. But, knowingthat it Is intended; for a foreign market,-and- Apprehending that some innocent person- might be misted, should it be permitted to pass unnoticed, I, therefore ask n small space in your paporfora reply. Tbs article referred to alleges thaViujtiesct tiement of my account of tho receipts and ex penditures of the Cumberland Bead; ! charged for 172 days, from Vie Ist of January (o tht ifk of Jnnt, TAii. Now, this is untrue, and the men who: control the Commonwealth ought to have known it. It is insinuated, by the Com. - monwealtb men,-: that there has- been an attempt to t/ff/e investigation into this account of mine.

AVSt. HOPKINS, A word with regard to the justness of this Claim. It Js well known to tho contractors oo the road that ! did not complete my settlements for eoTOral months after my term of office had ex* pired. I was obliged to go to Brownsville, Union town and I’ptonburg, and, all-the intermediate points, time after time, daring the entire summer and outamn, and a largo number of tho vouchers will show that they were taken, one, two, three, and same of them even five months after I went out of office. When the Auditors had-finished this examination of the “ receipts and- expendi tarcs,'.hr:l. submitted to them whether they did neUthihk. that justice demanded dhatfl should bo allowed .something for this extra expenditure of time and money. They at once saw the Justice t)f 4he claim, and the bill was made out and pasted by thorn; as hero furnished. ■ Tho amount of Compensation, ollowcd by the Auditors for :thi| extra e&viee was, I believe, about ono hun dreddoUarapatidlsaynow.as I St would noi more than reimburse the amount Which 1 had actually expended of my own money in traveling, week after week, over 80 miles of road, in order to make a final settlement.: Now, if lbere man'ko ntypard/yas to.tblnk tiiat I ought thus to have fcxpondod my timo and mo nejl, without remuneration, I cannot say that I cadet either bis good opinion or his vote.
