PERSECUTION OF IRISHMEN.
What must every true hearted son Of
the "Emerald Isle, who has sought refuge
in this country from the tyranny and op.
preston of British rulers at home, think
of party, the members of which give ut
terance to such sentiments as the follow
ing. Will it scarcely be believed that in
this land of liberty, which has always been
an asylum for the oppressed of all ma
lions," a single individual can be found
so base, so blackhearted, and so unworthy
the name of an American citizen, who
would endorse the language so utterly al
variance with the spirit of our free insltu-
tons. 1t is too true that such men are
toEbe found: yet thank God they do not be-
long 10 the Democratic party; they are
the friends of the white slavery and Abo-
ltion candidate for the Presidency, Will
liam Henry Harrison, and have no inter-
ests in common with the large portion
Of our fellow citizens: the farmer, the
mechanic, and the laboreF, are emphatic
ally the bOne and sinew of the nation.
We invite the attention of every irish
man to the subjoined paragraph, and then
ask him to say whether he or any of his
friends would so far forget their duty to
themselves and their adopted country, as
20 lend the most feeble aid to elevate to
power the candidate ofa party which has
already, in hundred instances, proclaim
ed eternal hostility to every foreigner
who sets his foot upon our shores. We
lsk every lrshman, and every descend
ant of Irishmen, TO reflect seriously upon
these things, and then leave him to his
future liberty and happiness, to give his
vote next October, 10 Mr.. Van Buren and

DUFF GREEN VS.. GEN. HARRISON.

DUET GREhN VS.. ZEN. HARRlSON.
We are indebted to the " Western Car
olinian," published at Salisbury, N. G.
for the following extract from Duff
Green's Telegraph. 1t is worth the pc
rusal OF every one who now takes any in
torest in party politics, (lnd there ale few
who do noD or who attaches any impor-
tance to the qualifications of candidates
for the highest Office in the gift of the
people. ,...
From the U. s. Telegraph of April IS,
1929.
GEN. HARRISON: The Richmond Wkig
assais the President with great force for
the recall of Gen. Harrison, and laments
over the expense of the mission to Col
umbia, in manner that justifes belief,
that Mr.. Peasants considers the salaries
attached to Offices, of more importance
to the Government than the faithful dis
charge of public duties.
s" 1t is useless for the Wing to speak of
Gen. Harrison and his services. We be-
lieVe that we speak trueIy, when we say,
that he has cost the nation more blood
and treasure than any other individual liv-
ing. We refer to the transactions on the
northwestern frontier. All who know
Gen. Harrison intimately, must be fur
ther sensible that he is unfit to be the
representative Of this Government under
any administration; and those who know
the commanding influence exercised over
him by Mr.. Clay, must admit that he is
not such man as this Administration
ought to select, for the delicate negocia-
tions with which our minister to CoIum.
bia is charged.
The true question, therefore, is not what
sum has the mission 10 Columbia cost us,
but it is, was Gen. Harrison, the person
selected by The coalition, the proper rep
resentative of the present administration
If this proposition be answered in the
negative, it will appear that the SIS, 900,
of which the Wing and other coalition
prints SO loudly complain, are properly
chargeabIe to the late administration.
Duff Green now edits the Baltimore
Pilot, and advocates the election of Har-
rison.

ONE OF LOVES STRATAGEMS.


A ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE.-In the month OF
December, l8-, a young man arrived from Par
is at Dieppe, and took up his residence at J. Ho-
tel de Europe. He was idle had been FORUM
ate, and the sole object of his stay was some lit
tie adventure, some.ball-room conquest, where
with to be employed, whereof to be vain Well,
in the Hotel there lodged lady, young beauti-
full, and enveloped in all the undeinable attrac-
ton of mystery. No one knew her; she went nei-
Their to the baths nor to the balls and she had not
even servant with her to be brbed. All in the
hotel were raving about her beauty, her grace
and dignifed manner. At night they would steal
up stairs TO catch the tones of her voice, for she
sang exquisitely. Our young Parisian's head
was completely turned. To have such neigh
bor with the face, he doubted not, of an angel
he knew she had the voice of one--and yet nei-
Their to be able TO see her nor to speak to her-t
was enough to drive him mad. He bought a
guitar, and composed songs, where the word
neighbour (Gostne) served as rhyme to the
unknown (inco@ue) 1t was quite in vain, song
and guitar were equally wasted. At ZENITH he
resolved on writing: a world of cupids, grapes,
vases, and roses adorned the border of the pa
per; the seal was of azure blue wax, and bore a
dove ready for flight. The whole staircase was
perfumed as he bore the scented epistle to the
servant he had paid to convey it. But the letter
and its half dozen successors, brought no reply.
Our Partisan was Supplied with establishment;
what had he, the utterly irresistible, remained
fortnight under the same roof with young
and beautiful woman, and only learnt she went
by the name of Madame Paul; name, too,
which was not supposed to be her own! Love
has many stages, and the young Frenchman had
arrived at one very unusual with him, namely,
melancholy.
One day he was reused from disconsoate re-
we're by one of the servants, whom he had bribed
to observe the motions of Madame Paul, running
in to inform him that she was just gone down to
the quay to see packet which was endeavoring
to enter the harbor in the teeth of contrary
wind. In an instant be was on his way to the
quay. The whole town was gathered on the
heighths which commando the coast, watching the
