forts to effect a union between the Hards and
Softs in New York having failed, the latter
have held another meeting of their State Con

likewise, tho State will hava two rival delega

Before the lato Sta'.o t-rfv.tion, this same con

resolutions to enable them to carry the

the election is over, chamelion-like, they
cliango their color, and pro-slavery resolves

F0HEIGN EIIIG3.ATI0N TO THIS COTJKTSY.
The foreign emigration to this country, says
the Lancaster Whig, has principally come
from Ireland and Germany. During the eight
years extending from 1817 to 1834, inclusive,
the whole number of foreign immigrants who
arrived at New York was 1,01G,398, of whom
1.532.000. or Cvc-sixths, were German and
Irish, the former numbering C9i,ol", and the
latter 837,4S0. This excess of Irish arose
probably from the Irish famine of lS-l i, which
caused a general rush for America. Previous
to that period the German immigrants exceed
ed the Irish, and as late as the year 1817, tho
Germans numbered 53,180, and the Irish 52,
010. But the next year tho great Irish emi
gration commenced, and continued to increase
until 1S31, when it rose to a total immi
gration of 102.2")j Irish to New York alone for
tiiat one season. The next year, 1S32, it fell
to 118,101, when it wa3 exceeded by the Ger
man total of 11S.G11, followed by a German
excess of 0,430 in 1S33, and of 91,031 in 1834.
The German immigration appears to have
reached its highest point in the last year, when
its total of 176,9S6 exceeded even the great
Irish total of 1851, to the amount of 14.7C0.
Ia the vcar 1855 all kinds of immigration de
clined very greatly, but chiefly the Irish and
German, the total arrivals of Germans at New
York having been 51,087 and of Irish -12,002.
From the figures we have already given, it
appears that the falling off in the Irish emigra
tion commenced in lS32,bcfor:: the appearance
of Know-Nothingism. In that year the Irish
emigration to N. Y. fell off 4 1,123, and it has
steadilv declined ever since. The condition
of Ireland has vastly improved since the fam
ine and the emigration consequent upon it.
Labor is now in great demand there, and tin
poor have no longer tho same temptation to
leave their native laud as they once had. In
German- some of the leading governments
have thrown such obstacles in tho way of emi
gration as to prevent tho former rush. Such
is the case in Prussia, for example. The ad
vices from America have also been very dis
couraging, as the later emigrants have expori
enced more suflering thau those formerly,
on account of the great numbers that were
here already.
But the immigration from Great Britain has
not fallen off in the same ratio as the German
and Irish- Luring the year 1853, 18;21'j Eng
lish, WelsU and Scotch arrived at New York.
The number of these immigrants arriving at
other ports is rretty well maintained. There
is a probability that, from England especially,
there may be within the next ten years an aug
mentation of the stream. The strike? in the
manufacturing districts, so frequently occur
ring, generally result in a large contribution of
emigrants to the great republic of the West.
The effect and influence of this great flood ot
immigrants to this country, may bo seen in
tho following facts in relation to the State of
New York : .
- urn rtavtr, recording TO the
.
year, has 051,822 voters, of whom 510,743 arc
native, and 105,077 naturalized. The latter
however does not furnish an indicatioji of the
total alien population, which is r"2,753. The
actual vote polled at tlie State elections is
cenor illy from 100,000 (o 15'J.COO short of the
whole number of voters. The basis of repre
sentation in the Legislature is the entire na
tive an 1 naturalized population, exclusive of
aliens and colored persons not taxed. Under
it the city of New York will have but seven
teen members in the lower house. For, al
though the whole population is ii:).ll9, the
aliens number 202,078, and the persons cf col
or not taxed 10,807, thus leaving a taxed and
representative population of G8 ,"23. Tho
native voters in the city number -10,113, and
the naturalized voters 42,702. Hero it is seen
that while the native population own the grea
ter portion of the property of the city, yet
they aro very nearly balanced by the foreign
population who vote not only on property
qualification or descent, bat upon their certifi
cate of naturalization. It is therefore no won
der that New York is tax-ridden beyond all
precedent, and cursed with corrupt, profligate
and abandoned rulers. Tho weight of this
foreign vote can be purchased and used by
unscrupulous and designing demagogues to
placo themselves in power or to carry out their
schemes of speculation, plunder and self ag
grandizemeiit. These facts should put the American people
on their guard, against tho constantly en
croaching foreign power, and induce them to
unite lirmly and persevere rcslutcly in
checking the foreign Catholic power that oth
erwise will gradually subjugate tho liberties
of this conntry.
LETTER FK0?t KOX D. BARCLAY.
Troux tho Pittsburgh Gazette.
IIonSE OP JtEI'KnSENTATlVES, )
Washington1, Jan. 8, ISj.'J. J
D. N. Whitf, Esq. Sir : My intention has,
through tho kindness of a friend, just been
called to an editorial in tho Gazette of Slst
ult., in which it is thought proper to hold me
un to public odium. I have in tho estima
tion of the Editor, not only rendered myself
II i:nV.n.-.a HI. 41., 1.4
"infamous." The thought
that
L,ttCT- . .. !, -..;!- :r ,.. 1.1..
slight degree of consolation. '
The liberty of the press fs the palladium v,r
all we hold dear as American citizens ; and
when exercised for the public good, should be
allowed the utmost latitude. At the-same
time those who control it should neither per
vert it to the purposes of mcro defamation,
nor ruthlessly assail the character or motives
of tho humblest citizen.
I do not know that you would intcntionailv
do cither. I cherish tho hope that you have
some appreciation of that moral precept which
says, "Thou thalt not bear false vitnesn against
thy neighbor." I would certainly much rather
entertain the belief that your article origina
ted from misinformation than from improper
motives. Adopting this, iim m, t:.A.i
legislation of the last session cf Congress
touching the Kaneas-JS euraska-cr, wasetu
ry wheic frankly avowed to the friends of that
"islation as wen as to ns opponents.
'While I did this, there was in my district as
little doubt of my position on the other question
the restoration f the Missouri Compromise.
I was then, as I am now unequivocally oppos
ed to its restoration. I do not design now
to vindicate that position simply to state u.
Was it expccteil that I should abandon my
sincere convictions of the truth of the princi
,,V of that nartv which has uniformly had my

cordial support; nnu wincu in useir uppwt..-
tion. have been productive ol blessings so m
estimable, to not only our own iana, uiu to
humanitv itself If so, should the responsi
bility be" laid at my door, for so riolet.t a pre
sumption? Am I justly chnrgable with the
f..llv of them who entertained it I The follow-
extract from the Clearfield Republican, will
perhaps settle the matter:
"IIox. David Barclay. This gentleman
has been among the most active of the ib Da
mocrats in the present Congress in sustaining
ihs nationality of our party, in the eflorttoor-
trani.e the House. He was in attendance at
tho caucus held bv the Democrats, and rend
ered efficient service in placing the Democrats
in the rroud position which they then took
and which thev have held with undeviating
firmness ever since.
On the 10th inst., from some remarks which
foil from Mr. Campbell, of Schuylkill, he felt
it to be his duty to define Ins position, an
which he did in the following highly satisfac
torv manner. . .
We might here st.de fr the satisfaction of
Mr. Campbell, that Mr. B.'s representations ol
the canvass in which he was elected, are cor
rect. The writer of this was a member of the
Convention by which Mr. Barclay was nomina
ted as the Democratic candidate, and he feels
confident that no man could have been nomi
nated bv that body who was disposed either
to resist tin; Kansas and Nebraska bill, or
f0
favor the restoration of the Missouri compro
mise; nor could such a candidate have been
elected in this di.-frict."
I will only remark in addition to what has
already. Leon said, that if you should have a
filj of tlie 'IJaftsman,'"' and which you quote
wit!i apparent confidence, by taking the troub
le to turn to the number published the third
week in October, 1851, you will readily dis
cover what the editor at that time thought of
my anti-Nebraska sentiments. It may per
haps, weaken your faith in the more recent
statements of that journal.
I will also beg leave to remark f hat no paper
in my district advocated my election on the
ground of my being farorable to the rc-eslublish-incui
of the Silitsunri Cuni romisc, so far as my
knowledge exteuds. Yours, ic,
D.vvir. Bahci.ay.
"This is mere evasion. It has never been
charged i:i this paper, or any other, that Mr.
Barclay ever pledged himself to vote'fora res
toration of the Missouri Compromise. It is a
matter of little consequence, in the present
state of the controversy, whether he is bound
by such a pledge or not. The allegation
against him, is, that he was elected as an anti
Nebraska man, under a confidence induced by
himself that, he was hostile to the policy of
tho Nebraska bill, and that he is now setting
that confidence at naught. Why docs ho not
meet this allegation manfully ? The proof
that he made anti-Nebraska professions, ai.d
I trnrr nr imrvir!m n rv . x i I iro . a tiler! res f'.i
ecu.; oi iasrTl,00 j.vovon ,v us. r.nd is cl.nr mwl ..-;.
ciiig. It matters but little what some of his
anti-Nebraska constituents thought or said
against him while he was a candidate : the fact
still remains unquestioned and unquestionable
that he palmed himself off on an unsuspect
ing people as one worthy of a confidence
whic.i lie is now betraying. He admits, in
this very letter we now publish, that he was
in the canvass which resulted in his election
"opposed to the legislation of the last session
ot Congress touching tho Kansas-Nebraska
act," and yet went into tho democratic cau
cus, at the commencement of the present ses
hion, an 1 voted for a resolution endorsing and
approving that very legislation ; and not oniv
so, but has since steadily voted for a candi
date for Speaker who was made such because
of Ins services in the last Congress in procu-
ring that legislation. Mr. Barclay, himself
being judge, he l.ns abandoned, on tho very
inst opportunity, the position he took before
his election. To skulk from the responsible
ty thus voluntarily assumed, is but to add to
the disgrace of the treachery
As to the courtesy due by tho press to such
a man, we have only to say that we have treat
ed him with all the deference duo to him.
He chose to make himself the vehicle of tho
lowest siang, directed against a 2ortion of
those who had put their trust in him, as well as
against tlie anti-Nebraska sentiment of the
country; and if he finds himself roughly han
dled in consequence, he has no right to com
plain." Wc arc requested by .Mr. Swoope, the form
er editor of this paper, to assure tho editor of
the Gczelte, and oil others interested, that he
is prepared, at any time, to substantiate eve
ry assertion he made in the columns of the
Journal with reference to Mr. Barclay, by in
contestiblc evidence. It is well understood
in this community, and is not denied even by
the Democratic leaders themselves, that Mr.
Barclay, during his canvass, and at the time of
his election, was a member of the American
Order, and wc have been assured by those
who were present in the office of M r. Swoope,
at tho time, that he not only protested that he
would support the candidates and principles of
the American party, but that he was thorough
ly Anti-Nebraska, and in favor of the rcstora
of the Missouri Compromise. We have

PArisT Ottkaces is Canada. The Niagara
lail publishes an account of a late diabolical
attempt at St. Sylvester, Lower Canada, to
throw off the railway train containing a force
of military and police sent to arrest the mur
derers of Mr. Corrigan, a respectable Protest-
tant farmer, who, while acting as Judge at an
Agricultural Fair, had giving a decision dis
pleasing certain Irish Catholics, who waylaid,
and murdered him in the mor.t brutal manner,
by beating and cutting him, jumping on him
until they burst his bowels out. The murder
ers, who are said to belong to a lodge of rib
bon-men, and who are well known, have hith
erto set the law at defiance and nothing short
of an armed expedition seemed able to take
them, protected as they appear to be by many
of the inhabitants of St. Sylvester. Their last
attempt was, as we sec, to destroy the railway
train. The Mail calls upon the government to
arrest tho murderers at what ever trouble and
cost. Other Canadian papers arc very severe
upon the government for the courso pursued.
The Hamilton Banner and Toronto Globe de
nounce the authorities in no measured terms.
The Globe concludes a long article in these
pointed words : "How long are Protestants to
be killed like dogs, and the government to Lc
permitted to shield the murderers."
Govr.RX0it of Ohio. Mr. Chase was inaugti
rated Governor of Ohio on Monday. In his
inaugural address the slavery question is re
viewed, and the restoration of the Missouri
Compromise is urged as (he means by which
the agitation of the subject may be quieted.
The Governor takes the ground of non-inter
ference with slavery in the States where it now
exists, but opposition to the extension of that
institution beyond the Missouri Compromise
line. He also favors river and harbor improve
ments, and in tlie administration of thc aflairs
of the State economy is urged as of thc first
importance. A modification of thc tax law, so
as to allow the deduction of debts from credits,
is recommended. The educational interests of
the State, and the care of the deaf arid dumb,
arc recommended to tiic fostering care of the
Legislature. An increase of tanking capital,
amendments to the Constitution, the establish
ment of the single district system, and annual
sessions of the Legislature arc recommended. 1
