EEGLIsHMEN IN AMERICA ON REPEAL.
To Irish only fl for he~ess OF wood and drawers OF
water!"
Such Mr.. Editor, was the outrageous declaration of
an lnsocn, salI-frd Engshmaa, when discussing The
question Of Re peal OF his beefsieak and porter few
days since, al Clark q Browns Refractory.
Such, hap!ess Ireland, was the audacious decla
ratic Of pampered partizan Of thy plunderars thy
o,pressors and thy bnlchers-'the highway robbers OF
the world.
And the fellow was right; any nation that would pa
tieny submit for series of years, to be robbed by
another, as ireland by England OF forty five millions
Of dollars annually, must De only nj ior "hewers OF
wood and drawers of water.
Again the fellow right any nation that would
stupldy submit the management OF lis own affairs, a:
Ireland does 10 England, notorious Tor her grasping
cupidy ggresson end INSCRIPTIONS violation
most sacred treaties, nas be only u lof ewers
of wood and drawers OF water.
Again the fellow was right; any nation That would
unresslinsy endure to be deeply degraded and
lie malically Impoverished by another until she behe!d
one out ofevery three of her entire population reduced
10 begrary chree millions Of paupers IN nine millions
Of peopleD must be only tit for "hewers wood and
drawers of water"
Again the fellow was right; any patton that would
tamey submit TO the wholesale stu pendous murder OF
fifty thousand of her people, annually swept away ny
cod famine and disease, under The horribly egallzed
system of exterminaton practiccd by heartless land
lords and ruthless aristocrats, sustained by English
bayoneis, must be only Fl, for "hewers OF wood and
drawers of water.
AGAIN the fellow was right any nation that would
baseIv suffer ,seflo be- for centuries most niquitously
taxed TO The amount of twenty-five millions Of dollars
annually TO support church by law established, and
in whose doctrine it could not believe, from whose
teaching it never derived aughi but bloes bayone,s
blood from whose hands 1t never received Inc smallest
benefit, and HON it has ever known excePtas cruel
and sanpunary be only ht Tor hewers
OF wood and drawers of waters
Again the fellow was right; any nation That would
slayishly acquesce for more than forty years, in
Union VIGOROUSLY unjust and profgatey iniluitous,
,sbich has inflicted injustice, oppression and misery
unparalleled lis people, without seeking lis Repeal
must be only fit for "hewers of wood and drawers Of
water"
Again the fellow right; any nation that would
conten,edy submit to have the elective franchise in
sulngly limited per cent OF her population, by
an over weening, reaching rival, who extended
The same privilege thirty per cent OF her own popu-
la,on in no respect qualified, must be only fit for
she wers of wood and drawers OF waller
| Again the fellow right; any nation that would
meanly submit, TO have her burgesses to pay nine diff
eren, for the privilege OF the elective franchise,
while the burgesscs of her unjust and tyrannca Hval
allowed that privilege on paying one tax, must ee
only fit for "hewers of wood and drawers OF water
Again the fellow was right; any nation that could
viley succumb TO the enormous and astounding ma
tona fraud Of being saddled with the crushing and
overwhelming debt of another to the frighfu amount
of four thousand millions of dollars single dollar of
which she had never contracted, must De only ~ ior
che wers of wood and drawers Of water"
Again the fellow right; any nation that would at
any risk remain united with her n,migabe oPPressor,
Which raudfuy, wantonly, and cruelty destroyed her
trade her commerce, and her manufactures and filled
her land with sorrow misery aud hear.-rending desc
aton, be only fit for "hewers o. wood and drawers
i Of water
Again the fellow right; any nation that would
not at any hazard dissolve all connection with another,
whose undertaking policy il has been for centuries to
debar The former from the and enjoyment OF her
industry and her revenues, and TO render her complete
y subscvent 10 the interest and opulence and luxury
Of tina. other be only fit for "hewers of wood and
drawers Of water.
Once FOR all, the fellow right; any nation that
would boldly and un,rrgy call forth all her ener-
ries 10 shake off the execated yoke of another whose
glory is her shame, and whose shame is her glory
whose success induces her misfortune, and whose mis-
+. fortune insures her success whose policy for seven
centuries he's been, with sleepess guile and Geld
e b!ooded treachery, directed 10 her degradation op
preston, plumber, demoral cation, wretchedness and
enslavement both body and scul-whose prosecutions
in atsociy intensity and duration have exceeded hose
of all the tyranny of the Roman empire put togsher
and whose massacres Wholesale End butcheres il de
tail, throw into obscurly oil the horrors of the French
; Revolu,ion-must surely be only fit for "hewers of
wood and drawers of water
