him. . •
, t " Pah I" ho muttered to himself, with disgust and
iMpatience, as be got fairly clear. Of the vulgar
" I shall be ,glad when this work Is
over. half sick with disgust, and half mad
with a fretting sense of humiliation. But they're
toolkand .we. must ;work with them. After our
,work is done, it will be an easy matter to throw
them aside."
Patrick Murphy had been in the comitry, just
long enough, to _secure .a legal naturalization, and
thus got the power of a vote in our-elections., As
to The constitution of the United. States, he :had
never read the , first article; ,anti, his. ideas of :the
spirit of our.histitutioas3vere bounded on all sides
by the'word liberty. 8001 i after his arrival, he-be
come aware that, duties and respousibilities, un
dreamed of in the "ould country," were resting
upon him. He was. "'one of the : people," upon
Whom reposed the: welfare of the ration. There
was a Party . in power, whose aim WO to restore
the old monarchial privileges that were such a
curse to Europe, and who sought to trample the
poor working, man under foot Pat. was soon po
liticiflyi intoxicated by the party , that first gained
his ear, flattered his self-love, and excited his natu
ral belligerence ; and as whiskey, an article to the
use. of which he was born, flowed • freely, as water
at. the,heistiqoarters of the partY, his ; affections
were not only won, but firmly rehtmed,
Pat's first electioneering experience was the one
that brought him in familiar intercourse as an equal
with Mr. it—, than whom, there was not in feel
ing, a more thorough aristocrat to be found. He
was,of those who really despise everything below
them ; but, being a lover of power, and an' office
seeker s he could talk of the dear people, and shake
them by the hand with an appearance of interest
and regard, while in his heart he loathed their very
presence. His manner of treating Murphy com
pletely turned the Irishman's head, and made him
so iesolent in manner to his employer, a Mr. P—,
that the latter had been‘several times tempted to
dismiss him from his. store, where -he was engaged •
as laborer and porter., - •
Oa thwaightle.forwelectioadderphy . spo at thq''
Pula" tifeetir,4, as lie lialttpromised. • While
occupied the stand as sPeaker, he stood close be
hunliing and throwing his hat in the air
at every emphatic sentence. Far above every oth
er voice was heard his, ever and anon shouting—
'. R-- and the - people forever !" •
After the adjournment of the meeting, he met
R— at the ward house, and was : stand and glove
withitim. for the space of an hour. Vilied he start
ed-fer home about one 'o'clock in the morning, his
mind,had become.so confused by drink or self-con
ceit, molt probably the former, that he was in se
rious doubt whether he were not the candidate for
election himself, and R— only one of the work
ing members of the political firm.
Mirphy bad some doubts whether he would go_
to' the store at all on the next day. It was-- .We
great election day, when a. battle was to be fought,
and whew every man should be at his post and rea
yto dO his duty. After some debate, be conclu
ded tio and open. P—'s store, and put the
roue roan in.iiane order, previous to the arri
val of e clerkt. Then he would take the day to
himself.
It was about half past eight o'clock that Patrick
Murphy, prese:nted himself to the owner of the
store s -and, with an air of unusual selfamprtanee,
said : •
" I L -shall be absent the rest of the day, bins

"How so, Patrick!" inquired his employer. °
"It's lection day."
