Judp. them by their Acts,

At election times the Locos hug, cajole, and
humbug as many of our fellow-citizens Of Irish
birth as will let them; and SO far do they 60 in
this game Of deception as to almost create
doubt as to whether they do not regard it as
misfortune and disgrace for any man to be born
in the United States. But are they honest in all
this? Many facts can be adduced in answer |;
but we will at present only submit q single one
In 1S48, when Ireland was suffering all the
horrors Of famine, and was calling upon our
country for bread, bill appropriating five hun
dred thousand dollars for the purchase of pro-
visions and the transportation of the same to Ire
land, was introduced in the Senate of the United
States 6y Hon. John J. Crittenden, and passed
that body by vote Of twenty-seyen to thirteen
all those Uoting against the bill being Locctocos
In the House, Hon. r. C. Wmthrop moved to in
struct the Committee of Ways and Means to re-
port to that body the same bill, but the motion
was rejected by vote of 1O2 to 56. Of the Of
yeas, As were Wings; Of the 1O2 nays, 80 were
Locofocos.
Is anything more needed to demonstrate that
the Locos are the true friends of the Irish! If
So more of the same kind is at hand.
Gen. Scott's enmity to Irishmen is of course
clearly proved by his exposing his life for them
on board of British prison-ship He cannot
be indicated!

s0- The Syracuse Star says.

"The Washingtonians have the worst-managed
post ofhce in the country. You may 20 to q
small backwoods village and find better mail &c
Communications Persons are compelled to wait
at the Washington city post Office an hour or more
after the arrival of the mails before the delivery
door is opened; then they must yet go through
with line Of march in order to get what belongs
to them. And very often, after all this trouble,
your mails are not given you until days after they
reach the office, through the negligence or lazi-
ness of the employees there. We have personal
knowledge of these facts"
The editor of the Star is unfortunate in his ex-
perience. Our experience has been pretty am
pie; and we think that, when we take into the
account the poorly-adapted edifoe in use, and
the vast amount Of non-paying business trans
acted, the duties Of our post Office despatched
with wonderful accuracy and despatch. Neither
negligence nor "laziness" exists there; and q
good republican, like the Star editor, ought not
to complain of the long line of march, which is
merely the observance of the good old grist-mill
rule of s1first come first served"
We hope we may soon have suitable accommo-
dations for the purpose. Complaints will then
cease, except with persons whose pleasure it is
to complain!

A Voice from Ohio.

A gentleman in Ohio, an intelligent and able
lawyer, and formerly State Senator from
lake district thus writes in private letter to o
friend in this city:
"Political skies look fair. There are some
changes in every neighborhood from Democracy
to Scott--none vice versa. know Of several In
this neighborhood, and have reason to believe
there are manyi in the county. But Wing chang
ing to Pierce is not claimed, that l know OF,
anywhere.
!" Another movement, it seems to me, is likely
to be felt, and that's the turning of great many
Locofocos to free democracy! l have heard TO-
day of several of that party, who heretofore have
been prominent, that intend to vote for Hale. l
am not quite certain, but it looks to me as if the
Locos this fall were about to experience some
thing of the same declension which the Wings SUI
fered in 1848. The truth is, Pierce's nomina-
ton was so unexpected, and he has SO little cha
racter, that it seems impossible for the leaders
to prevent assertions"

Mr. Francis Poe, . young man Of our town,
delivered last night before the Wing Club, q very
spicy and interesting speech. His remarks were
confined principally TO comparison of the ser
vices rendered the country by General Scott and
Franklin Pierce, their respective claims to the
Presidency, and their qualifications to discharge
the important duties Of that Office. He also went
into an investigation of the principles and public
acts of the two parties, and proved conclusively
that while the measures commended for by the
Wing party have, where fully carried out, ever
been promotiye of the general veal, those of the
Locofoco party have tended directly to the disad-
vantage not only of the country at large, but of
the laboring man and mechanic in particular.
He also showed from their own teachings that.
while home protection is leading feature Of De-
mocracy in some parts of the North, free trade
alone is true Democracy in the South; that while
river and harbor improvements IS test OF gen.
uine Democracy in the West and Northwest, in
other sections of the country this policy is con-
sdered not only impracticable but wholly uncon-
stitutional and closed his remarks with some
pretty severe structures upon that compou nd Of
negatives, the Baltimore Democratic platform.
Large quantities of -four, grain, &c. continues
to arrive by the canal, and finds ready purchasers
among our enterprising water-street merchants.
Business in this section of our town continues
brisk.

A Splendid GaIphin.
The Ohio State Journal saws:

"Wm. II. Gwin, the locofoco Senator from
California, who is at the head of the locofoco ma
tional committee, for distributing documents,
and eectioneering for Pierce and King, is just
the man to ring the charge of Galphinism against
the Wings. This Gwin, on the 4th of March,
1851, at the close of the 31st Congress, with
other Senator's, was requested to remain few
DAYS by the President, to attend to some execu-
tive business and, in addition to his eight dollars
per day, he charged, and actually drew from the
Treasury the enormous sum of four thousand and
eiqht dollars constructive mileage For the actual
journey he did make to Washington from Califor-
MIA, and back again, he charged and drew his
pay in addition to this sum.
This is the man who feels 80 bad because the
Secretary of the Treasury paid the interest on q
sum of money that was used in our glorious Rev
dictionary War"

We have received the August number of the
Democratic Review. II is embellished with a
likeness Of VIM. R. King, the Democratic candi-
date for the Vice Presidency, and its first article
is headed AVN. r. King-Conquest of Africa"
We had some curiosity to look into the article
with this singular connection at its head to sec if
the Democracy propose to elect King for the
negro continent as well as Vice President of the
United States. On examination, we find con-
siderable portion of the article devoted to show
ing that it is possible that during Mr.. Kings
term of office as Vice President, he may be re-
auired to take q new position with respect to the
claims of the colored race in Africa. The Re-
viewer then gravely and deliberately proceeds to
argue that the conquest of Africa by the free ne
groes of America, and the introduction there Of
the American slavery system, seems to be the
only means of subduing its wilderness to the
rights Of man. He passes high encomium upon
the free negroes Of the United States and their
capacity for such an undertaking.
Another important article of the Review is on
the question, "Who Owns British North Ameri-
ca ?" and this leading organ of American Demo-
cracy endeavors at great length, and with much
labor and research, to establish the extraordinary
proposition, that the claim Of the cropn Of England
TO the absolute Ownership Of the land in British
North America is unfowaded, and that the crown has
not any legal right TO continue her present goUern-
ynent there 1t maintains that the title to millions
of acres of wild land in British North America
and the powers of government there rightfully
belong to the present representative Of the first
Earl of Sterling, who is now in this country,
''intent on the prosecution of his already judi
cially established claims to the rights of his an
cestor." The Review goes in for the United
States taking sides with the Earl Of Sterling
against the British government

The split among the Locofocos of Massachu-
sets is no trifing matter. The pure, blooded
Hunkers have separated from their less scrupu-
lous brethren who have hitherto lived in loving
relations with the Freesoilers. They regard the
principles of the latter as utterly at war with the
Baltimore platform of their party and with the
candidate they nominated upon it. Accordingly
they eschew them. They refuse to touch the
unclean thing. They come out from among them,
shaking off the dust of their feet. Coalition they
are sick Of Besides, there is now no hopes Of
any profits at all. The Wings have nominated
Winfield Scott. Opposition to that candidate is
utterly hopeless, especially in Massachusetts,
No coalition, no bargain, no intrigue, though
concocted in the lowest abyss of corruption to
which even the Locofocos of Massachusetts, can
descend, has any chance against him. The bat
tie is desperate one.-N York Tribune.
