lclty OF New York, at an election for officers of
the city government, within which there are pro-
bably more than one hundred thousand fOreigzs-
ers. Note the expression: "Irishmen, to your
posts, or you will lose America. By perseve-
rance you may become its rulers" Yes, sir,
irlshmen are invoked to come forth and rule
America. And how, sir, is
this great work of subversion to be accomplished?
This handbll too clearly furnishes the answer to
leave in doubt the manner Of its accomplishment.
And is it, sir, with view to such an object that
this extraordinary privilege, at this time, is TO
be conferred upon this alien population! 1t is
believed that during the present summer there
will have arrived in the city of New York alone
at least seventy-fiye thousand foreigners, vast
numbers of whom are miserably poor and dest-
tute of the necessaries of life. Go, sir, to the
alms-houses and penitentiaries, and you will there
discover the relief which the policy Of the British
Government has effected by the transportation Of
their pauper population, and the burden which
that policy has cast upon our country. In some
instances, more than two thirds of their inmates
are foreigners, and in almost all very striking
proportion. Now, sir, the principle of this bill,
if carried out, win require that the right of suf
frage should be extended to them all. / trust,
sir, the American people are not prepared for such
a measure. This alien population, upon which
you are bestowing this important right, cannot,
according to the wellestablished usages and laws
of most independent nations, acquire an alb o.
lutte title, either by descent purchase, to an
acre Of land in the Territory of Michigan. And
yet sir, is it possible that they can be deemed
safe depostaries Of the liberty and lives of our
citizens, and even of our counry's honor!
Sir, if an apology be due to the committee for
this encroachment upon their patience at this
unusual hour, | trust it will be found in the
novelty and importance of the question involved
in this biIl Were the effects of this question to
be confined to Michigan alone, | should have
continued listener rather than participator, in
this debate; but, sir, when reflect that every
State in this Union has deep and an abiding
interest in this matter, and, instead of its being
sectional question, or one limited to the narrow
confines of partisan warfare, it is one involving
a momentous national question, Icannot but yield
my inclination to the more imperious commands
of duty.
The native American., 1838-05-05

AN OLD FASHION REvvED.-We are pleased
to see any one Of the fashions of past ages re-
vived and again have its day. We do not like to
be too particular in noticing the numerous changes
in the fashionable calender Of city bellies, bat
as our venerable grandams may yet be seen, with
partial fondness, clinging to of their youthful
hobbies, we can but mention that it has become
quite modish for our young ladies to wear string
of plain gold beads around their swan-like necks;
this has very neat and rich appearance, and is
not extravagant ''notion" wihal; the cost vary
ing from five to fifteen dollars, according to the
number and weight of the beads, there being
from thirty to fifty beads upon each string. If
the half million Of pretty girls we see occa-
sonally should and all adopt this fashion,
old Virginia and Carolina would be able to pay
us fat dividend on our few shares in their gold
Post.

"I'M OFFl"

AS the fly said that lit on the mustard pot
The story is thus.-A fly in pursuit Of sweets,
honey or sugar, descended upon an open pot of
mustard, mistaking it, probably, for St Croix.
What disappointment. The one so delicious;
the other odious, suffocatng. The fact is, that,
to the fly, the mustard was complete take in.
A young man went 10 pay his address to
very pretty girl whom he had seen abroad, neat
as pink, and mild as summer evening: all
smiles and dimples. Going in unexpectedly one
day, he heard the voice Of his charmer, an oc-
tave above, and at least demi-semi-quaver too
quick for good nature. Standing moment, he
saw her pass: those silken tresses in wild dis
order, streaming like meteor to the troubled
air. slipshod-the heel of one stocking half torn
off. 1t not the dishabille Of industry, but
the garb of the sattern. Amazed, the lover yazed
a moment-then crying,
''I'm off," as the fly said took his departure
forever.
Such girl, so neat in public, so sweet before
company, look upon like a piece of veneeled
work, thin covering Of beautiful stuff, put on for
show, concealing the rough and unsightly mate
rial of which the article is mainly formed.
In how many hundred instances in life is
mustard taken for sugar. In politics, in trade,
especially in pleasure.
But as / write to be read, and of all things
should be mortified to see any one gaping over
my youthful lucubrations, ''Im off,"
