I y,
of the City Of New York Brooklyn and Will
liamsburg, natives of Ireland, have seen with
some surprise, the attempt made BY certain
parties in this city. who are neither citizens nor

polls, how we should vote in the coming Pre-
sdential Election.
We beg to say that we place no reliance in
statements put fourthby one who is not even
himsefa citizen, speaking through neutral
paper" whose columns have been purchased
for the purpose, and imprudentiy assuming to
speak for the naturaliEed ciIlzens of New
York.
Now. we beg to say that we will vote for
Winfield Scott, and against General Pierce.
for the following among other reasons which
are so plain as to commend themselves to the
approval Of every citizens.
Winfield Scott is in favor Of principles laid
down and advocated in Ireland by such men
AZ Lucas Swift, Gratten, O'Connell, and
| Aeagher; in favor of Protection to Home In
dustry; while Franklin Pierce is in favor Of
the doctrines Of the London Times, which
would follow the Celt, whom be had hunted
from house and home, from the Island of his
birth, into this country, and here beneath
the very wings of the American Eagle, make
him machine for consuming British manu-
factures, and thereby make him sustain
the very policy which has hunted him from bis
home.
Because Winfield Scott is in favor Of. and
Franklin Pierce is opposed to. Internal In
provements, by which the laborer can make
money with which to commence the world, and
Il al, DIX DO
the honest lahorer.
That, Winfield Scott has been for years be-
fore the public. distinguished alike in war and
peace, the great benefactor, and most beloved
both hv Raturazed and native citizens; while
Franklin Pierce has never done any thing to
endenr him to the country or to It's citizens,
either native or adopted.
| We shall vote for Winfield Scott because
be has proved himself the friend of his country
and allts citizens. no matter on what soil
they were born, or from what nation they
came.
His noble conduct on The prison ship at
Quebec, when British minions assumed the
right to execute lrshmen for being found in
arms against England, especially endears him
| 10 every Irishman who has an honest heart in
his bosom.
Who that claims TO be an American citizen
does not point with pride to that page of the
| History of the United States, made glorious
by the courage and bravery Of the faithful
soldier!
I For ourselves we feel that it is only to such
men as Winfield Scott, that the nation can
look with safety in her hour Of trial and
danger-a man who has proved his prowess
by cop eing successfully with England in her
| day of pride and power, and whose whole
life has been devoted to the service of bis
country.
| We will vote for Winfield Scott because
he has always respected tho religious opinions
Of those whom he came in contact, and always
used his power and influence 10 protect the
affairs of all creeds from Dissertation. In this
respect the life of Winfield SCOTT stands out
in bold relief as compared with the narrow
minded bigotry of New Hampshire, the native
State Of Franklin Pierce, State always un-
der the dominion of his party and political
associates, and which is now the only State
in the whole CoDfederacy where men are
prescribed ou account OF their religious faith.
1t will not do for the friends Of Pierce to
urge that he was in favor of expunging this
odious reslriclictiun from the Constitution of
The State. The evidence Of his labors SO to do
is wanting
