Mk. one sees so many glaring humbugs
resorted to by the "purr and upright"
statesmen of the Republican party to ob
lain 31141 retain power, and the peel&
swallow theme humbugs, tee, with such ap
parent relish. that we are constrained,
whether we will or De, to atrial:sit doubt the
boasted intelligence of the masers+. A case
of this kind is now exhibited in bituscachu
setts—that illustrates our position admi
rably. As all will retiollect, n few yea
sine it was the fashion in that good old
commonwealth to mart t let doctrine that
"Artwieans mast rule Amerik," and
uphn the topmost wave or the flood-tide of
the party claiming that sentiment for a
corner stone of their creed, Senator WIL
SON rode into - power, and assumed the lion
skin doffed by the great Wessratt. About
that time we road many lectures from his
pen upon .the propriety and necessity of
our teutonic ant eettic'brethrem remaining
in the "eoliqtY ,tWatity-one years before
they :should Iwk allowed the privilege of
voting. Well, it ia said time works changes,
and it little time has worked a ivcmderthl
change in this Senator Wasos. The log-
Wature of Massadsusettr,at italatemession,
passed an act submitting the question to
a vote of the people whether a foreigner
shall wait two years after naturalization—,
making his entire probation seven years--
before be shall be allowed to vote. This
act was a tub thrown to the American
element in the Republican party--the
managers shrewdly calculating that they
would be able, with the help of the Demo
crats, to defeat it before the people, and
thus, while they would satisfy their legion
of foreign voters by its defeat, the Ameri
can legion would ascribe the sacrifice of
their darling measure to anything but the
right muse. it was a vrell Conceived "trick,"
but as things look now it is likely not to
win. The Denmerataarediapoeed to stand
back and let the two wings of the party
settle the question among themselves.--
Seeing this, several prominent Neiv ' Eng
land Republicans have been compelled to
show their hands when they wonkl mush
preferred to have played Muni. Among
them is Senator Witses. lie is *pima
the two .years add/tit:mai probation yew,
whereas before he was elected to the
United Statis Senate he WSW voted for and
sent to Cougresa !limn the ground that .for
eigners shoukl be required to•reside ingbe
country titioo r s o w years before voting.—
This is a pretty Dar cheat, it deems 'to ns.
Twenty one years wee rears:amble before

two to many. Great is humbug.in Mate
