Journal, which is the Roman Catholic organ
IN New York, and is edited by Bishop Hughes
thus notices Daniel O'Conncll and his repcat
Ell abuse oil the American people and their in
stitutions.
MIR. OConnell is an Irish statesman. not an
American. He is monarchist. not republ-
can. lie can'neither see think, Judge, act or
talk as citizen of our Republic, and il is quite
unreasonable in any one to expect that he
should do so. He sees our government and
institutions at a great distance and from un-
der corner of that cloud of prejudice as TO
every thing American which pervades the po-
litical atmosphere of Great Britain. With Mr..
loConnells views and opinions, he is to de-
gree unable to understand and admire those
more peculiar features of our Republic. i'm
which we rejoice. lie has in numerous in
stances, and upon sundry occasions within the
knowledge oil all who have watched his public
course'and perused his published speeches and
expressions, manifested ignorance of our gov
eminent and laws Ill very essential points.
lhe last arrival brings strong evidence of his
want oil accurate information as to the state
OF parties with us, upon point too as to
which am American school boy could prompt
| him.
AT the same time, we must say that the re-
cent Texas effort OF that great man is, i'm our
humble opinions, rather unworthy of him. no
consistent with former warm expressions of
gratitude on his part, and uncalled for i'm any
view OF the present relations between the u
States and Great Britain, as they affect Ireland
or the glorious cause i'm which Mr., O'Connell
is so ardently engaged.

they have given to others who ventnred upon
the same course of SANDER, they have pursued
this effort through long years with persever;po

publications, they have omitted no occasion
TO traduce the citizens because the citizens
were mostly Wings. This has been the con-

since, looked on and appaudcd the slanderer

And yet il II had been all true which was said
OF us, the character of the city had no concern
with the political issue of ihe country. There
was, therefore, no shadow of palialion for This

us, resorted. And even a few days ago. some
one OF these dared to write, and neighboring
vehicle OF calumny dared to publish a similar
attack on our citizens.
This attack, however met with rebuke
from our neighbor of the Argus. We must
express the great pleasure it has given us TO
see the new editor of that paper so PROMPTLY
use his columns in repelling the ISLANDERS di-
rected against the city. This is so natural
and right Tor any mind well constituted. that
to acknowledge it especially would have been
superiluous in any other community. But
we are gratiiied to copy the following remarks
from the Argus:
we are sorry TO see the Wheeling cores
pondence OF the Mountaineer descend so far
from proprlety as TO speak against the charac-
ter and business OF our city. While others
are, and he should be engaged i'm elevatinp the
